Chapter 136 (2/2)
“Sangyu wouldn’t harm aunty,” Ji Man said, “If you have all of the imperial physicians come by to check your condition with the emperor acting as a witness, then no one will dare to accuse aunty of faking a pregnancy later on . ”
n.o.ble Consort Nie had battled in the imperial harem for many years and had used methods like this one before . But, maybe it was because her life had been too comfortably lately . Or perhaps, it was because she was too old and didn’t want to compete anymore . She had forgotten that even if she didn’t want to harm someone, other people would still want to harm her . With Sangyu’s reminder, she became alert again .
And so, when the emperor came by Ninglu Palace and Nie Sangyu and old madame kneeled down to greet the emperor, they heard n.o.ble Consort Nie painful scream . She was clutching her stomach and her expression looked painful .
“Beloved consort, what’s wrong?” The emperor was shocked . He hurriedly went forward to support the n.o.ble consort . As n.o.ble Consort Nie voiced her pain, she ordered her personal palace servant girl to bring over all of the imperial physicians .

Several imperial physicians came over and they all said that the n.o.ble consort’s fetus was very stable . n.o.ble Consort Nie apologized to the emperor for making a fuss about nothing . She had just been too worried at the time .
The emperor was currently in a very good mood . How could he possibly blame her? He even decided to stay over in Ninglu Palace that night .
Everything had gone according to the plan . Ji Man let out a large sigh of relief .
On their way back, old madame somewhat reproachfully said, “You must have been overthinking things . Look at how much the emperor favored the n.o.ble consort . How could he possibly sentence her to the cold palace just because someone slanders her?”
Ji Man sighed . Women could never successfully guess what men would do next . Anyways, it was fine . This trial had pa.s.sed . Nothing else was important .
When they returned to Marquis Moyu’s residence, a group of people were coming and going . They looked very frantic . Once glance was enough for Ji Man to figure out what had happened . What was meant to happen would always happen .

Tanxiang was blocking the entrance . Seeing that old madame and Nie Sangyu had returned, she excitedly reported, “Mistress Wan is pregnant . ”
Old madame was stunned . Holding Nie Sangyu’s hand for support, she asked, “How could she be pregnant? Xuan-er had only recently returned . Whose child is this?”
Tanxiang’s smile froze and disappeared . She said, “My master has been pregnant for two months . The baby was conceived before the marquis left for the Southern Trip . Old Madame, if you don’t believe this servant, you can go inside to ask the doctor . ”
After a light snort, old madame brought Nie Sangyu along with her as she walked to Qiangwei Courtyard .
Ning Yuxuan had returned and was currently sitting at Wen Wan’s bedside . With a gentle expression, he held Wan Wan’s hand . Wen Wan’s eyes were red . She had probably recently cried, but her entire body seemed filled with vitality .
When Ji Man entered the room, Marquis Moyu turned around to briefly look at her . His gaze was a little bit strange . Ji Man didn’t understand what it meant .
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 . Original translation is from fuyuneko dot org . If you re reading this elsewhere, this chapter has been stolen . Please stop supporting theft . 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 Sangyu wouldn t harm aunty, Ji Man said, If you have all of the imperial physicians come by to check your condition with the emperor acting as a witness, then no one will dare to accuse aunty of faking a pregnancy later on . n.o.ble Consort Nie had battled in the imperial harem for many years and had used methods like this one before .
