Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage-Chapter 500 - : May She Live a Pampered Life
Chapter 500: Chapter 500: May She Live a Pampered Life
Emperor roared, “Fetch another bowl!”
The palace maid hurriedly brought another bowl.
The Emperor ordered two nannies to hold Concubine Jin, and he personally held the bowl, pouring the medicine into Concubine Jin’s mouth.
Concubine Jin’s face twisted in pain, but she couldn’t break free.
The brown medicine spilled from the corners of her mouth, flowing onto her face and clothes.
Her face was covered in tears.
Tears mixed with the medicine, flowing onto the bed.

Li Hongyuan stood by the bed, watching this scene, his expression blank.
Although he was Concubine Jin’s biological son, their relationship was not close due to her temperament, one could even say it was distant and cold.
In Li Hongyuan’s memory, Concubine Jin had always been pampered and luxurious.
He had never seen her in such a sorry state before.
After a large bowl of medicine was poured down, Concubine Jin seemed to improve.
The palace maids changed her clothes and bedding.
She lay weakly on the pillow, her face pale and swollen, her hair disheveled.
She looked like a beautiful painting that had been soaked in rain, losing all its colors.
She became a blurry black and white image.
Completely devoid of vitality and color.
Jiang Ning felt nothing but sorrow in her heart.
She truly liked this woman.
It was not an exaggeration to say that she even liked her more than the original owner’s biological mother, Lin Zizi.
She liked seeing Concubine Jin being tender and beautiful, living a lazy life.
The Emperor had completely lost his sanity due to anger, and he summoned the Imperial Prison’s torturer, ordering him to investigate who had poisoned Concubine Jin.
If they failed to find the culprit, everyone in the Imperial Prison, from top to bottom, would lose their heads.
The Imperial Physicians were also trembling with fear, all gathered in the Splendid Palace to diagnose Concubine Jin’s condition, analyzing the poison affecting her and the next steps for treatment.
The Emperor stayed by Concubine Jin’s bedside, not leaving her side.
Until it was dark.
The Empress stepped forward and advised, “Your Majesty, the safety of your dragon body is important. It’s getting late, and the Princess Consort is here to look after her. Why don’t I accompany you back to rest?”
The Emperor sternly said, “If the Empress is tired, she can go rest by herself! I will stay here with Concubine Jin!”
The Emperor and Empress were married in their youth and their marriage was arranged by the previous emperor. Although the Emperor did not love the Empress, he had always respected her and given her the dignity she deserved as the Empress all these years.
He had never publicly scolded her like this and dismissed her concerns.
The Empress’ eyes reddened, and she dared not mention it again.
Since the Emperor treated the Empress like this, Li Hongyuan and Jiang Ning could not leave either.
Not to mention they had yet to clear their suspicions.
Even if Concubine Jin was the Crown Prince’s biological mother, it didn’t matter.
“Water…” Concubine Jin moaned softly.
The palace maid hurriedly gave her a sip of water.
Concubine Jin opened her eyes and weakly called, “Ah Yuan.”
Ah Yuan?
The Emperor sitting by the bed was momentarily confused.
Who was Ah Yuan?
After a moment, it was the Empress who reminded, “Maybe she’s talking about the Crown Prince.”
The Emperor suddenly realized.
Yes, the Crown Prince was named Li Hongyuan.
He had always been called Lao Wu (Fifth) or simply the Crown Prince, and had never heard anyone call him like this. He momentarily did not react.
Not to mention others, even Li Hongyuan himself had never heard his concubine mother call him like that.
“Crown Prince, why don’t you come over?” the Emperor shouted angrily.
Li Hongyuan came to the bedside.
Every word Concubine Jin spoke seemed to consume a great deal of strength. After closing her eyes to gather herself for a long time, she finally spoke again, “Everyone else leave, I have something to say to the Crown Prince alone..”ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
