helps Princess Nanzhang to rise for the meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid Hong Ying hurriedly enters and says, \"Commandery Princess, there’s news from Qingqiu Garden.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What news?\" Princess Nanzhang replies with a detached tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Ying steps closer and says, \"Lady Chi has been vomiting in the garden, hiding behind the rockery for half the day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vomiting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Nanzhang’s eyebrows knot tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao’s expression changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the sour plums, then the Tiger Head Shoes, now vomiting, and the Prince visiting...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that Lady Chi is indeed pregnant?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it’s only been a few days since the doctor checked Lady Chi’s pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao asks Hong Ying to recount the day the doctor checked Lady Chi’s pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hear that the doctor checked Lady Chi’s pulse through gauze curtains, and her pulse was very rapid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao looks at Princess Nanzhang and boldly speculates, \"Perhaps the person the doctor checked wasn’t Lady Chi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Mrs. Zhao, but Princess Nanzhang also thinks so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold smile emerges in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of hiding away, will she just give birth to the child in her womb?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s wishful thinking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Nanzhang intends to become pregnant again and have the Empress Dowager pressure the Prince into granting her the title of Princess Consort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she can’t achieve this, she can find someone else to replace her as long as the Prince doesn’t remain pure, and the Empress Dowager would reprimand the Prince severely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But anyone else is acceptable, except Lady Chi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mute woman with a ruined face can easily conceive the Prince’s child, while she has to plot incessantly, is there anything more humiliating?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jealousy drives Princess Nanzhang mad, she says, \"Bring that wench to me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Ying turns to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao hurriedly stops her, \"Not yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Ying turns, looking puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao looks at Princess Nanzhang and says, \"Commandery Princess, calm down first, there’s no need to hurt yourself over an insignificant concubine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Chi was unwell before, the Heir’s wife visited her, she must know Lady Chi is pregnant, and since the Prince visits Qingqiu Garden repeatedly, he must know as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you bring Lady Chi here and make this public, the Prince will definitely stop you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Nanzhang coldly laughs, \"Do you think I’m afraid of him stopping me?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not, but fewer troubles are better than more,\" Mrs. Zhao says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of causing a stir, it’s better to act directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lady Chi eats something bad causing the loss of the child in her womb, it’s her fault for hiding it, the kitchen could claim negligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it can be done covertly, why do it openly and provoke the Prince’s displeasure?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Nanzhang thinks Mrs. Zhao makes sense, and decides to entrust this matter to Mrs. Zhao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, early morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caiju goes to the main kitchen to fetch the meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She happily carries the food box into Qingqiu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the room with a radiant smile, Xique sees her and says, \"Why are you so happy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The main kitchen has simmered a chicken for Madam, perfect to nourish Madam’s body,\" Caiju says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why is the main kitchen suddenly so good?\" Xique asks incredulously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks to the Heir’s wife and Xingxing, the housekeeper of the main kitchen knows Qingqiu Garden and Xingxing have a good relationship,\" Caiju says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xingxing often visits the main kitchen, the housekeeper hopes Xingxing will view her kindly for treating Qingqiu Garden well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an explanation raises no doubts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingqiu Garden is blessed by the care of the Heir’s wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lu Qiao listens and says, \"You didn’t return sooner, I simmered swallow’s nest for Madam.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Both can be eaten together, it’s not a problem,\" Xique says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She opens the soup bowl, releasing an enticing aroma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maids can’t help but feel hungry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi wakes up, and the maids quickly help her wash and dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While washing, Lady Chi starts to gag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s been like this for days, the maids are used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi sits at the table, Xique hands her the prepared chicken soup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi picks up the bowl, intending to take a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But accustomed to light food in the morning, she can’t really eat greasy food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After smelling it a few more times, she feels nauseous and goes to vomit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caiju and Lu Qiao exchange glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vomiting from flower fragrance yesterday, now can’t stand chicken soup, how peculiar is a pregnant woman’s sense of smell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This chicken soup smells so good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would drink the whole bowl without a grimace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi vomits for half a day, Xique asks, \"Madam, are you alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine,\" Lady Chi says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since she regained her voice, her recovery has been remarkably fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now she can complete a whole sentence in one breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though her voice lacks the previous clarity and resonance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s normal, she’s no longer young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique feels tender affection for Lady Chi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She has served Lady Chi for years, hasn’t even tasted a bowl of chicken soup from the main kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now finally having it, yet not able to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Chi lets the three maids share it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xique suggests, \"Madam cannot eat in the morning, perhaps leave it for lunch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need,\" Lady Chi says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maids can’t force Lady Chi and truly want to drink the chicken soup themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three maids share the chicken soup, even chewing the bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Lady Chi finishes her meal, the maids clean and tidy the table, and return the food box to the main kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kitchen maid sees the soup bowl spotless without a drop left, asks, \"Did Lady Chi drink the chicken soup?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She drank it, two whole bowls,\" Caiju quickly says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This chicken soup is made for Lady Chi, if she doesn’t eat even a sip, it’s unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the main kitchen learns Lady Chi vomits from chicken soup, what if they stop sending it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lady Chi doesn’t eat, she can.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Caiju leaves, the kitchen maid quickly reports the news to Princess Nanzhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chicken soup simmered with blood-enriching Angelica and secretly spiced, just one bowl is enough for miscarriage, let alone two large bowls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Nanzhang happily waits for something to happen in Qingqiu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But waits and waits, and no response from Qingqiu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be Lady Chi isn’t pregnant, am I overthinking?\" Princess Nanzhang says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she’s not pregnant, nothing would matter no matter how much she drinks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhao, however, dares not be careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night she pondered much, thinking Lady Chi’s pregnancy might have to do with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That time she drugged the Prince, the dose was potent, not something a slap from Princess Nanzhang could wake the Prince from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking the drug, anyone would appear as a beloved to the Prince.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During those days, she worried about the Prince favoring some maid, never considering Lady Chi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t it just after that, the Prince gifted a zither to Lady Chi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Prince rarely enters the inner courtyard, couldn’t possibly sneak to favor Lady Chi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be due to that day’s drug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night, Mrs. Zhao was so frightened she couldn’t sleep, fearing the Commandery Princess learns she used multiple doses without conveying, leading the Prince to favor Lady Chi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Princess would surely flay her alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Better be cautious, let’s find a doctor to check Lady Chi,\" Mrs. Zhao says.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1245,"2026-06-06T02:20:04.578Z",1,"novelbin.me","521bd8ebe1d071fd67c6459c13ffb5968c7da1277aeeccfe1f01f15df424f874","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-574","after-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-chapter-572",1103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-transmigration-i-snag-a-stunning-bigwig-as-cover.jpg"]
