Chapter 2496 The Best Way WHAT?! Everyone was astonished when they heard Emperor Wu’s words. Feng Wu?! How did Feng Wu have anything to do with it? The empress dowager stared at Emperor Wu. “You shouldn’t joke about such things! Feng Wu would never deserve such an honor!” Emperor Wu was displeased. That girl had saved the empress dowager many times; without her, the old lady wouldn’t be chatting here now. However, being a loving son, Emperor Wu couldn’t say that to his mother’s face. Otherwise, she would cry her eyes out. Empress Dugu and Zuo Qingluan gave each other astonished looks. Feng Wu? How could it be her?! Was it possible that His Royal Highness had helped Feng Wu to grab that chance? 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺 In that case… Zuo Qingluan would be so humiliated! Just then, Concubine Oriole walked toward Emperor Wu with her hands on her bulging belly. “Your Majesty, that’s not possible. Feng Wu can’t be…” She suddenly slipped and lost her balance. “Ah!” She fell to the floor. She was eight months pregnant, and her belly was as round as a ball. It just so happened that she fell face first. “Ahhh —” Concubine Oriole screamed in pain. “Oriole!” Emperor Wu ran to her side. “How do you feel? Are you alright? Get the physician!” Concubine Oriole had the voice of a singing oriole, and Emperor Wu quite liked her. It had been a while since one of his women had a baby, and he was rather looking forward to this one. But that fall… Emperor Wu felt his blood run cold. He looked at Zuo Qingluan. She was too far away to touch Concubine Oriole, and it wouldn’t be reasonable to suspect her. But Emperor Wu still glanced at Gao. Gao nodded, indicating that he would look into it. Master Bai soon arrived. He said that Concubine Oriole shouldn’t be moved around, and it was better to treat her right on the spot. For the baby’s safety, the empress dowager gave permission to have Concubine Oriole treated in Cining Palace. “Master Bai, how’s the baby?” Emperor Wu asked. Master Bai shook his head. “The pregnancy is quite advanced, and things can be tricky. Your Majesty, we need to prepare for the worst.” Master Chu also arrived. After examining the patient, he reported to Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu trusted him. He asked, “How is she? Is the baby safe?” Master Chu took a deep breath. “Your Majesty, in the worst case scenario, who will be the priority? The mother or the baby?” Emperor Wu asked, “Is it that serious?” Master Chu nodded. “Which will it be, then?” Before Emperor Wu could reply, the empress dowager said coldly, “Concubine Oriole was so careless, and put the baby’s life in danger. If something happens to the little prince, she’ll pay with her own life! You shouldn’t be asking that question!” “But…” Emperor Wu still had feelings for his concubine. Zuo Qingluan was intrigued. She thought about the question Emperor Wu had asked her, and wondered if he knew something The best way to stop him from asking the question was…
