Chapter: 136 out of 513 – Nie Sangyu’s original time of death (1)
According to the original novel, Nie Sangyu hadn’t been pregnant at this time . Ji Man had thought that since the Southern Trip had changed, then this might have also changed . Ji Man sighed, didn’t think any further about this, and had Muxu send the doctor out .
Since she wasn’t pregnant, then she could only watch as Wen Wan’s fortune reversed . She couldn’t kill her . In the original novel, Nie Sangyu had died around this time . Since she had only read up to Nie Sangyu’s death, she had no idea what happened after that .
In addition, something would be happening in the palace as well . n.o.ble Consort Nie had already been three months pregnant . Once the emperor had been informed, the empress also naturally found out too . While feeling overjoyed, the emperor said as long as n.o.ble Consort Nie gave birth to another son, he would promote her to the position of imperial n.o.ble consort .
(T/N: Imperial n.o.ble consort is one step above n.o.ble consort . She would be the second most powerful woman in the imperial harem . )
However, Ji Man knew that n.o.ble Consort Nie would be framed as faking a pregnancy . Later on, while feeling furious, the emperor sent n.o.ble Consort Nie to the cold palace . Once that happened, Marquis Moyu ordered Nie Sangyu’s death without having to worry about any consequences .

As long as n.o.ble Consort Nie didn’t enter the cold palace, Marquis Moyu wouldn’t heartlessly sentence Nie Sangyu to death and plan on marrying another one of Nie Clan’s daughters in order to maintain the relations.h.i.+p between the two clans .
Ji Man didn’t want to die at all .
So for now, she would disregard everything else and convince old madame to go to the palace immediately .
“Why do you want to go to the palace? Right now, there are a lot of people over at the n.o.ble consort’s place congratulating her . ” Old madame was quite confused .
With a solemn expression, Ji Man said, “Sangyu had a nightmare last night . In the dream, someone had accused the n.o.ble consort of faking her pregnancy and said her stomach was just bloated . That person even found a wicked imperial physician to slander the n.o.ble consort with her . They caused the n.o.ble consort to be condemned and sent to the cold palace . Even more hateful, the n.o.ble consort ended up suffering miscarriage . The dream felt too real . Sangyu is scared and wants to go to the palace to check up on the n.o.ble consort . ”
Seeing that Nie Sangyu was scared enough that she was perspiring despite the cold, old madame thought that the dream truly did have enough foundation in reality to be frightful . Although the emperor hadn’t favored the empress in a long time, Xiao Clan had considerable control over the imperial court . The empress had a wicked heart . She might not be willing to accept the n.o.ble consort’s second child . The emperor was also exceptionally happy because it was rare for him to have another child due to his advance age . The greater his hope was right now, the greater his disappointment would be . Thus, the punishment would also be much harsher .
(T/N: Since it’s only been mentioned one time before, including a reminder that the empress comes from Xiao Clan here . )
Thinking of these thoughts, old madame agreed to bring Nie Sangyu into the palace . Anyways, it would be good to take a visit there and see n.o.ble Consort Nie .

Once they arrived at Ninglu Palace, before n.o.ble Consort Nie had time to say anything, Nie Sangyu said with a serious expression, “Aunty, vigilance must be maintained to avoid being harmed . Although an old imperial physician has already confirmed that you’re pregnant, Sangyu feels that it’s better to be safe than sorry . When the emperor comes by later, just pretend that you’re not feeling well and have all of the imperial physicians come over here to check on you . ”
n.o.ble Consort Nie looked at her in confusion . “Why do you want to involve so many people?”
