Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 63 - Slap Slap Slap Noble Princess Consort

“Your Majesty, there is actually another method. I heard that one of the fish sent to the Empress Dowager was kept; to find out if there are any parasites, one just needs to try eating it.”

Feng Bailing broke the heavy silence.

The Empress Dowager, merciful as she was, upon learning that Nalan Yan’er had sent fish, had one kept with the intention of releasing it.

The slices of raw fish arrived quickly, each piece thinly sliced like a cicada’s wing, with a hefty amount of garlic and vinegar added, looking quite appetizing, and not at all like something that would contain worms.

“Where on earth would these worms come from? I see it as nothing more than some people spreading misleading words, and there are still those who indulge them. I don’t know what they are really plotting.”

Noble Princess Consort Xiao said with a mocking tone.

“If Noble Princess Consort Xiao does not believe it, she could try it herself, as a display of filial piety to the Empress Dowager.”

Feng Bailing said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Noble Princess Consort Xiao was momentarily stunned, but quickly regained her composure.

She did not believe the nonsense from Feng Bailing. On the day of the Spring Banquet, she too had eaten several slices of raw fish and was still lively and jumping around.

Feng Bailing was trying to intimidate her, but she wasn’t going to fall for it.

“I’ll eat; how could the fish from the Crown Princess Consort’s banquet be problematic? Clearly, it is someone harboring jealousy, framing and blaming others. If I eat this and nothing happens, the person who accused the Crown Princess Consort should be properly punished.”

Noble Princess Consort Xiao said, then picked up a slice of the raw fish and ate it.

The raw fish was incredibly fresh, the fatty part especially delicious and sweet. Noble Princess Consort Xiao had not gotten many slices last time, but now that she had a taste, her appetite surged and her chopsticks moved faster and faster.

Soon, she had finished off an entire plate of raw fish.

“See, I am perfectly fine. What else do you have to say, Feng Bailing?”

Noble Princess Consort Xiao mocked.

“Noble Princess Consort need not rush, everyone reacts differently to parasites.”

Feng Bailing smiled.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Noble Princess Consort Xiao was still rosy-cheeked and full of vitality when she spoke.

Nalan Yan’er breathed a sigh of relief; Feng Bailing was indeed playing tricks, whatever parasites, probably were made up by her.

“Your Majesty, I am perfectly fine; it’s clear that Feng Bailing is lying. She framed the Crown Princess Consort and even poisoned the Empress Dowager, her crimes are…”

Noble Princess Consort Xiao was speaking when suddenly, her face changed.

She felt a pain in her lower abdomen.

It must be an illusion, she thought; she had eaten too quickly.

Noble Princess Consort Xiao comforted herself and took a sip of hot tea to calm her nerves.

But after the hot water went down, the stomach pain did not subside; instead, it intensified.

Soon she was sweating profusely and couldn’t sit still.

“Aiyo, it hurts so much.”

After a few more breaths, Noble Princess Consort Xiao felt an unstoppable pain in her abdomen and, disregarding her appearance, she collapsed to the ground, shaking as if she were in the throes of a seizure.

This scared the Imperial Physicians and Nalan Yan’er terribly.

Especially Nalan Yan’er, who had also eaten some raw fish that day, as had Xiao Xiu, albeit in a smaller amount.

“What are you waiting for? Hurry and attend to the Noble Princess Consort.”

At this time, Emperor Yongye was starting to believe some of what Feng Bailing had said.

His eyes filled with disdain as he swept a glance over Nalan Yan’er.

This daughter-in-law, handpicked by him for the Crown Prince for her virtue and ability, had never made a mistake before; he had not expected such a huge blunder to occur this time.

The Imperial Physicians had become like mute gourds at this moment, none daring to take the lead.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to treat the Noble Princess Consort; they simply had no medicine.

They had never even heard of anti-parasitic medicine.

“Feng Bailing, quick, give me the medicine.”

Noble Princess Consort Xiao felt as if her abdomen was splitting open, a pain comparable to giving birth to ten Dongfang Lis.

No longer caring for her appearance, she pushed away the palace maid next to her, and with stumbling steps, crawled to Feng Bailing, begging in a low voice.

“Noble Princess Consort Xiao, didn’t you accuse me of spouting nonsense and deluding others?”

Feng Bailing feigned a troubled expression.

She had anticipated Noble Princess Consort Xiao’s outbreak.

The raw fish Xiao had eaten at the Spring Banquet was not much, so no symptoms had appeared.

But today was different, she had consumed such a large amount of raw fish that the probability of contracting parasites was high.

“Prince Wu, I beg you, please help save Noble Princess Consort Xiao, I am to blame for everything. If Princess Feng is willing, I am prepared to apologize to her.”

Nalan Yan’er showed a face full of self-reproach as she looked towards Dugu Wu with an expression of desolation.

Dugu Wu knitted his brows involuntarily.

It was Feng Bailing who had the medicine, but Nalan Yan’er was asking him for it.

Knowing Feng Bailing as he did, he understood that she was petty and vengeful; aside from the Empress Dowager, anyone else wanting medicine would have to pay a price, no doubt about it.

As for Noble Princess Consort Xiao, he had never liked her—arrogant and overbearing, just like her son, senseless.

“Princess Feng, although Noble Princess Consort Xiao was at fault initially, she is also the future mother-in-law of Feng Xiangxue. You should take better care of her.”

Nalan Yan’er spoke up in a hurry.

By now, Noble Princess Consort Xiao felt half-dead, only desiring the medicine.

“Yes, we will be one family in the future. Your Majesty, I believe the second Miss of the Feng Mansion, Feng Xiangxue, embodies both virtue and talent. Ah Li has long admired her, thus I beseech Your Majesty… I beseech Your Majesty to grant this marriage, granting her to be… Ah Li’s concubine.”

The severe abdominal pain of Noble Princess Consort Xiao fueled her hatred for the Princess’ Mansion.

She had originally agreed with Nalan Yan’er to bring Feng Xiangxue into the household as a concubine, but when the words reached her lips, they turned into ‘Ah Li’s concubine.’

It was well known that the status of a concubine was much lower than that of a concubine.

Emperor Yongye had little impression of Feng Xiangxue, remembering her only as the adopted daughter of the Princess’ Mansion.

Since Dongfang Li liked her, and he had earlier breached the betrothal and thus dishonored the Princess’ Mansion, marrying the adopted daughter of the Princess’ Mansion as a concubine could also be seen as compensating the Princess’ Mansion.

“Since it is a match of mutual affection, I grant my permission for this marriage.”

Feng Bailing’s heart stirred.

History’s course was changed once more.

Feng Xiangxue was married off to Dongfang Li ahead of time, but this time, she was not the First Princess Consort, but a concubine.

Feng Xiangxue, proud and lofty, would surely be infuriated to find herself a concubine.
