Chapter 84
All the officials followed the prestige, and saw the empress, who hadn't seen her face for a long time, in a blue court dress, wearing a twelve-pearl crown, slowly coming from outside the hall.

"See your majesty, long live my emperor, long live!"

Civil and military officials knelt down and saluted.

Jiang Nian also stepped down from Majesty Dan, holding her hand, without saying a word, but with reproach in his eyes.

At this moment, she is thinly applying vermilion powder, but even the best rouge powder can't hide her paleness and haggardness. Jiang Nian's heart tightens when he sees it, as if breathing has become difficult.

Ning Yuezhao smiled and nodded slightly at him, and went up to Danbi hand in hand with him, and sat down respectively.

"Everyone, please be at peace." Ning Yuezhao raised her hand to support her.

Everyone got up, only Tang Xuefeng and Zuo Ming were still kneeling.

Jiang Nian was about to continue questioning the two, but Ning Yuezhao stopped him with his eyes.

Seeing her eager eyes, Jiang Nian thought that he was full of resentment at the moment, and he really couldn't do an impartial interrogation, so he could only hand over the initiative to Ning Yuezhao.

Ning Yuezhao originally wanted to send Tang Xuefeng to the palace for questioning, but the eunuch who sent the message told him that he was in the Chongtian Palace, so she came here in person. Jiang Nian was in a bad state, so he had to show up.

Ning Yuezhao said in harmony to the two: "Get up and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Zuo Ming stood up straight, he cupped his hands towards Ning Yuezhao, "Your Majesty, I haven't finished talking just now, can I let you continue?"

Ning Yuezhao nodded, "I heard what you said just now outside the hall, you can continue."

"Yes." Zuo Ming continued, "I believe that the attack on Doctor Fu this time was not an accident, but someone did it on purpose. This person must be very aware of the time interval between the inspections by the officials of Shuntian Mansion. They acted in the middle of nowhere, so they were able to do so unconsciously. And these people shot fast and hard, and they retreated before the arrival of the next round of inspectors."

As soon as Zuo Ming said this, all the officials whispered to each other, discussing it, and they seemed to agree with it.

The inspections of Shuntian Mansion are not fixed every night, and there are not many people who can know the interval between the patrols of Shuntian Mansion officials, but every possible target is not easy to mess with.

Who would have trouble with a little imperial doctor?

Although there is a little clue, things are still stuck in an impasse.

Tang Xuefeng seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurriedly said, "Commander Zuo is right, it must be so!"

Jiang Nian glanced at him, "Since this is the case, you should be able to find out the real culprit soon."

Tang Xuefeng froze immediately, but he didn't dare to say that he couldn't, so he could only say: "I should do my best."

Ning Yuezhao didn't want to see him deliberately making things difficult for others, and added, "Commander Zuo, Fu Liao's injury is also related to your negligence. You should help investigate this matter."

Zuo Mingzheng had this intention, and immediately cupped his hands and said: "I obey the order."

Jiang Nian added another sentence: "This matter should not be delayed for a long time, you must give Gu an explanation within three days."

As soon as he said this, Zuo Ming was okay, but Tang Xuefeng's expression was much more exciting. What is called from heaven to hell, it is right now!

After this matter was settled, there were no other important matters, so the emcee eunuch said loudly: "Retire from court".

Ning Yuezhao was about to get up while leaning on the handrail, but a burst of dizziness hit her, and she lost consciousness when her eyes went dark.

Jiang Nian, with sharp eyes and quick hands, caught her fallen body in time, and said anxiously, "Ah Zhao!"

But at this time Ning Yuezhao was no longer in the know, so Jiang Nian picked her up and strode towards the dragon chariot outside the hall.

When the officials first saw this scene, they were also a little flustered, but fortunately, Jiang Qixi was there.

He said in a deep voice: "My colleagues, since you have retired from the court, let's leave. Your Majesty's fortune is long, and there will be no serious problems."

Seeing that Shoufu had spoken, everyone didn't dare to say anything more for a while.

Seeing the officials disperse in twos and threes, Jiang Qixi glanced at the emperor seat with a little worry, and was about to step away, but was stopped by Xu Zhi, who also did not leave, "Jiang Shoufu, I really envy you, there is such an outstanding son!"

Jiang Qixi said indifferently: "Xu Cifu's words are wrong. Your Royal Highness is now a heavenly family, and the laws of the country are greater than the laws of the family. When I see him, I must also behave like a monarch and minister. How dare I entrust him with such a big deal like when I was at home."

Xu Zhi tried his best to smile when he heard the words, "Jiang Shoufu deserves to be the elder of the three dynasties, he is an official who overstepped the rules."

Jiang Qixi waved his hands, seemingly indifferently said: "Now that I have retreated from the court, it is inconvenient for me to stay in the Chongtian Palace, so let's leave quickly."

After finishing speaking, he left without waiting for Xu Zhi.

Xu Zhi glanced at his back angrily, and said in his heart: Let's see how long you can be proud, let's see!
The dragon chariot galloped to the front of the Ascending Dragon Hall and stopped, and Jiang Nian carried Ning Yuezhao straight to the sleeping hall.

Fu Yuan was already waiting in the inner room, and he couldn't help feeling worried when he saw the anxious imperial husband coming in with the pale empress in his arms.

Ning Yuezhao went to Chongtian Temple to seek justice for Fu Liao. She had been sick to avoid worrying about work, but now she suddenly passed out, probably because she got angry in court and felt a little guilty.

As soon as Jiang Nian put him down, Fu Yuan went up to take Ning Yuezhao's pulse.

As soon as Fu Yuan's fingers touched Ning Yuezhao's wrist, his face changed slightly, and he quickly changed hands to help his pulse again.

Seeing his solemn expression, Jiang Nian's heart rose to his throat.

"How?" Jiang Nian asked nervously.

Fu Yuan confirmed Ning Yuezhao's pulse again, and said to Jiang Nian with a strange expression: "Your Majesty, she seems to be pregnant..."

Jiang Nian was taken aback when he heard the words, unable to speak for a moment.

Bitao was the first to react, "Congratulations, Your Highness, this is a great event!"

The palace people knelt on the ground, "The imperial husband is overjoyed, Your Majesty is overjoyed!"

Jiang Nian seemed to be still dreaming, he asked in disbelief, "Are you going to be a father?"

With hesitation on his face, Fu Yuan stammered: "Your Majesty's pulse condition is not very obvious, but it should be happy, but the pulse condition is less than one month old, and it will take some time to confirm..."

"Okay, okay!" Jiang Nian came back to his senses, bursting into ecstasy, "Fu Yuan has done a good job in diagnosing His Majesty's pulse, and I will reward him with a thousand taels of gold!"

As soon as he said this, all the palace people in the room looked at Fu Yuan with envy.

A thousand taels of gold!His Royal Highness is really overjoyed this time, the reward is so generous.

Fu Yuan dared to remind quickly: "Your Highness, the pulse condition is not very obvious now, so I can only say that the possibility is very high!"

Others are envious of seeing him get a generous reward, but only he knows that his son's life or death is uncertain, and the real culprit is at large, so what if he is given ten thousand taels of gold?
Jiang Nian waved his hand indifferently, "That's a reward too!"

He obviously ignored Fu Liao's possibility and automatically regarded it as a definite diagnosis.

Afterwards, Jiang Nian turned around and smiled at the palace servants who were kneeling on the ground: "Get up, you all have rewards too!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Jiang Nian said to Bitao: "There are rewards from all over the palace, and this matter is arranged by my aunt!"

Bitao nodded, "Slaves don't have to."

Looking at Ning Yuezhao who was asleep on the bed, Jiang Nian showed a relaxed smile that he hadn't seen for a long time.
