Chapter 232 Hematemesis
"What, Cheng Yujing has resumed his position and is in court today?" Queen Mother Zhao suspected that she had heard it wrong.

Mother Ji reported in detail: "Prime Minister Gu interceded for Cheng Yujing, saying that his disrespectful words to the queen were just drunk gaffes, and he was exonerated from the name of corruption."

Empress Dowager Zhao sneered and said, "It seems that the emperor let go of Cheng Yujing because of his suspicions about Xia Fei."

"Empress Dowager, what are we going to do now, sit and watch the queen give birth to a prince?" Mother Ji said.

Empress Dowager Zhao beckoned for Nanny Ji to approach, and said a few words in a low voice.

After listening attentively, Ji Momo nodded.

Xia Fei woke up in the afternoon that day, saw Fei Cui brought a bowl of medicine, pinched her nose and said, "Okay, why did you bring me medicine again?"

Fei Cui smiled and said: "Didn't your mother lose your appetite last night? Imperial Doctor Liu said, if you don't eat, the baby in your stomach will also eat, because she prescribed medicine for your mother to take. As you said, after taking the medicine three times, your appetite will decrease." It's open."

"It's really troublesome." Xia Fei said lazily: "Is this medicine made by the medicine boy at the doctor Liu's side?"

"Yes, it's just served, and it's still warm!" Jade smiled.

"Concubine Zhao said she was unwell during her pregnancy. Isn't Imperial Physician Liu busy with her diagnosis and treatment? There is still time to make medicine for me." Xia Fei was careless.

"There are two medicine boys, one is decocting medicine for the empress, and the other is decocting medicine for Concubine Zhao." Fei Cui helped Xia Fei up, and brought the medicine to her mouth.

Xia Fei suddenly remembered Zeng Shidao's words, pushed away the medicine and said, "Wait a minute."

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Jadeite was surprised.

Xia Fei thought for a while and said: "You pour this bowl of medicine, please don't say anything. Don't wait for the medicine boy to bring the medicine at night, go quietly to the pharmacy and exchange my medicine with Concubine Zhao's medicine."

"Your Majesty, could it be..." Fei Cui covered her mouth, extremely shocked.

Xia Fei said: "I hope I am overthinking."

In the evening, Fei Cui followed the plan and changed the medicines of Xia Fei and Zhao Jiaoyun.

A little later, Fei Cui came into the room with the medicine in her hand, and whispered: "Madam, this bowl is Zhao Guifei's medicine, your bowl, the medicine boy has already sent it to Zhao Guifei."

Xia Fei nodded and said, "Pour out the medicine."

On the second day, Liu Qinghao came to take Xia Fei's pulse, and asked doubtfully, "Isn't Madam sleeping well at night? The pulse seems a little restless."

Xia Fei said: "Some things are on my heart, and I can't sleep peacefully until the truth comes to light."

Liu Qinghao was about to ask again, when he saw one of the medicine boys stumbling in and said, "Imperial doctor Liu, it's not good, the maid from Zhao Guifei's side came to look for the imperial doctor, saying that Zhao Guifei has abdominal pain and is already red."

"What? I prescribed anti-fetal medicine last night, and my pulse was normal. How could this be?" Liu Qinghao hurried out with Yaotong.

Fei Cui stayed there for a while before she said: "Madam, is Concubine Zhao harming others and herself?"

Xia Fei said: "I guess it wasn't her who made the move. If she did, she would definitely not dare to take the medicine just to be on the safe side."

"Is that the empress dowager?" Fei Cui was so shocked that her legs went limp.

Xia Fei said softly: "The Empress Dowager is too impatient, impatient, and has never been able to eat hot tofu."

In the afternoon, news came that Concubine Zhao Gui had had a miscarriage.

When Wei Guan heard the news, he was in a state of dismay, and ordered a thorough investigation into the incident. Before the investigation began, the drug boy himself admitted his guilt and committed suicide by taking poison on the spot.

In the Kunning Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhao heard that Concubine Zhao had a miscarriage and that the drug boy committed suicide. She just clutched her chest and fell down on the chair.

"Empress Dowager, you can't fall down right now!" Nanny Ji stepped forward to help her and said, "This matter has to fall on the Empress so that we can escape and find another way out for the imperial concubine."

"It's useless." Queen Mother Zhao spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".

"The Empress Dowager..." Mother Ji was startled and shouted, "Come on, send the doctor!"
