Pregnant with literary talent
Such a scene, Zhang Niangniang has seen countless times over the years, and naturally knows what's going on.
They're not even concubines, they get pregnant and hide it from everyone until the three-month danger period is over, then they find an excuse to faint and reveal the news. Thinking about this, Zhang Mama's heart was filled with hatred, these cheap women, seeing that Fu Jun is pregnant, are all rushing to add trouble! (Zhang Mama, I'm telling you sincerely, it's a misunderstanding!)
Su Peisheng is indeed a capable person, and his efficiency is really fast!
But soon after, he came back with the imperial physician.
"This humble servant greets the Fourth Prince, may the Fourth Prince be auspicious!" Song Taai was a middle-aged man who, as soon as he entered the room, formally paid his respects to the Fourth Prince.
Yin Zan sat in the main seat, looking at Lin Qingyu's pale face, and said without turning his head: "Get up! Go take a look at Madame Fu."
"Psst!"
Mò Mèi Jú placed a handkerchief on Lín Qīng Yù's wrist, and only then did Sòng Tài Yī carefully take his pulse. However, the slightly trembling hands and the silent prayers in his heart to hurry up and finish revealed his emotions.
Ministers, there are not a few people who fear Yongzheng. Song Taishi is one of them. If he hadn't happened to be on duty today, honestly, he really didn't want to come. In the Imperial Hospital, there are many more skilled doctors than him, how could it be his turn? (Intimate, is that what you thought and didn't want to come?) To make matters worse, being with the Fourth Beile made it even colder. He couldn't help but shiver!
"What's going on? Hasn't a diagnosis been made yet?" The tone of Yongzheng's voice was unmistakable, and everyone could hear the displeasure in it.
Song Taizhong's heart was filled with tears! Fourth Beile, I had just put my hand on it, how could I have diagnosed it already?! I'm just a small doctor, not Hua Tuo!
Song Taizhen followed Su Peisheng when he came, and his heart was uneasy. If something happened to the Fourth Imperial Concubine, it would be bad luck for himself. However, after diagnosing for a while, a delighted expression appeared on his face, and he knelt down in front of Yongzheng, who was sitting in the main seat, saying: "Congratulations, Fourth Beile, the Fourth Imperial Concubine is pregnant, exactly one month!"
Finally felt a sigh of relief in his heart, whether or not he was rewarded, he didn't care, at least for now he didn't have to worry about being implicated. Being an imperial physician isn't that easy after all!
Yin Zan heard this and a rare smile appeared on his face, but it scared everyone present except Lin Qingyu.
Actually, Yongzheng's smile gives people a feeling of snowflakes blooming, which is stunning. No wonder someone said that the smile of an iceberg is the most touching.
Lin Qingyu had some unkind guesses, saying that Yongzheng might not have become icy because he was scolded by Emperor Kangxi, but perhaps it's possible that he thought his smile wasn't as majestic as that of the Fourth Prince, so he deliberately put on a stern face!
Actually, in Yongzheng's heart at this moment, there was only one voice: Father finally has another legitimate son...
Sweat~~ The legitimate child and all that, it really hurts to death! Is there any?
Still worried about the master's heartache, Zhang Niangniang was the first to come back to her senses, and with a plop, she knelt on the ground, congratulating: "Congratulations, Beile Ye, congratulations, Fugui."
Under the leadership of Zhang's wife, the rest of the people woke up and knelt down together to congratulate.
"Congratulations, Prince Beile, congratulations, Princess."
"Cough, get up!"
Yin Zan suppressed his smile and resumed his usual expressionless face, then lightly coughed and said.
No one saw his hand clenched behind his back, slightly trembling, and he was excited beyond words.
The issue of having children has always made him the subject of Third Brother's ridicule and Imperial Mother's scolding. Now that Father will also have a legitimate son, (isn't this getting ahead of oneself ~ what if it's a daughter?) What's so great about just having a legitimate son?
"The Empress is with child, it's a big deal! The entire imperial household will receive three months' worth of salary!"
"Thank you, Master Shebeile!" Another collective bow of gratitude.
"Dr. Song, write down all the precautions clearly."
"Ah!"
He ordered Song Taizhen to finish speaking and then turned his head to Su Peisheng and said: "Su Peisheng, send someone to take a look. Those who fainted have woken up yet? If they are awake, let the doctor diagnose them."
Xianzhen, you won't be so heartless as to abandon me now, will you?
"Yes! I'll go right away!"
"Wait!" Lin Qingyu called out to Su Peisheng, who was about to step forward.
"Milady, please give your orders."
Su Peisheng showed unprecedented respect. Of course, it's not that he was disrespectful to Lin Qingyu before, but rather more respectful now! After all, with the birth of a child and the arrival of a legitimate son, the position of Fu Jun is now very stable.
"Have Li Ce Fu Jin and the Gege who didn't faint come see the imperial physician, to check their pulses for peace." Lin Qingyu really wanted to know how many people had been secretly pregnant under her nose while she was busy rectifying the servants and eliminating troublemakers.
Of course, she wants to know what to do next?
But instead, find a scapegoat for herself, divert some hatred and attention. She's just an ordinary person with a bit of Midas touch, not a god! Isn't there always the unexpected in everything?
Take Honghui for example. She thought she had given Yunquan the medicine, so logically speaking, Honghui shouldn't have died young? Who knew that at that time Yunquan was not in the mansion, and by the time Honghui was rescued from the water, he had already stopped breathing. There wasn't even any time to save him.
So Lin Qingyu also didn't dare guarantee that she would definitely be safe and sound!
Su Peisheng received Fu Jin's order and went out of the door to dispatch his eunuchs one by one to notify each courtyard.
Song Taizhen wrote while explaining the points that need attention to Lin Qingyu one by one.
Zhang Ayi leaned against the imperial physician's left side, perked up her ears, and made sure to remember every single detail.
That face with wrinkles all over it was full of serious expression, making Lin Qingyu want to laugh. However, seeing that the nanny was also showing concern, she forced herself to hold back and didn't laugh out loud! As a result, her whole body was shaking, her shoulders rising up and down.
Zhang's wife looked at Lin Qingyu and asked anxiously, "Madam, what's wrong with you? Where does it hurt?"
This shout was so loud that everyone in the house focused their attention on Lin Qingyu, making her stiff all over. Originally, Zhang's concern for her was so great, but she couldn't help laughing, and her heart was full of guilt.
Unfortunately, he was scared away by this shout and escaped to Java.
"Hehe... hehe..." Lin Qingyu's face turned slightly red, filled with embarrassment. Seeing Yongzheng's inquiring gaze, she had no choice but to force herself to reply: "I, just now... felt like there was a bug crawling on my body, itchy..."
"Hmm!"
Yongzheng nodded in understanding.
Lin Qingyu's little self in her heart squatted down and silently covered her face, how embarrassing!
At this time, someone came to report: Li Ce has arrived with all the princesses!
Yongzheng said to the kneeling maid at his feet, "Let them in!"
Li led the way in first, followed by Song, Wu and Zhang who were still dazed and being attended to by their maids. The last ones to enter were Jia and Geng.
"May the Beile have good fortune! May the Furen have good fortune!"
After everyone had paid their respects, Yongzheng waved his hand and everyone stood up.
Lin Qingyu drank a mouthful of apricot kernel stewed mutton milk and said, "I called you here to ask the imperial physician to take your pulse for good luck!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of the people below were different.
Li, with a dignified and elegant demeanor, held her head high as she scrutinized the five gege (princesses) with a piercing gaze.
Song's eyes shone with a glimmer of hope. She had not had her period for over two months and was often drowsy, sometimes feeling nauseous. These were all symptoms that only occurred when one was pregnant.
Wu was proudly showing off her flat stomach, looking at others with a smug expression. She had been drinking fertility soup for some time now and it had been over a month since she last menstruated, so in her mind, she was 100% sure that she was pregnant.
Zhang didn't close the window while sleeping last night and caught a chill, that's why he fainted!
Jia's eyes were filled with suspicion and uncertainty as she glanced at each person's stomach.
Geng's reflection, Lin Qinyu said, is the most worth savoring!
She heard this, her pupils suddenly contracted, the fingers holding the handkerchief turned white, and she shrank back, carefully moving to a corner where the line of sight couldn't reach.
"Li Ce's wife is first!" Lin Qingyu said.
Li went over to Song Taizhen's position and stretched out her hand, with Shi Lan, the personal maid, placing a silk kerchief on her wrist.
"Song Taifu, how is it? How's Li Ce Fu Jun's body?" Lin Qingyu asked with a concerned face. As the legitimate Fu Jun, some face still needs to be done, properly caring for the concubines, and showing one's own virtue, Lin Qingyu also knew how to do it! Anyway, it didn't take much effort, just a few words, and she could benefit from it too, why not?
"Please report to the Fourth Mistress and Li Ce's wife that her body is well-nourished! However, she may have had some sleep deprivation recently. I'll prescribe a sleeping aid, just drink it and it will be fine!"
"Ah, continue!" Lin Qingyu nodded to indicate continuation. "Ben Fujin won't ask anymore, Song Taifu will diagnose and report one by one!"
"Yes!"
The next person to be diagnosed is Song Shi!
"This Lady Song, with irregular menstruation and a weak physique, needs to be well-nourished, otherwise it will be difficult for her to become pregnant again!"
As soon as the imperial physician Song finished speaking, Madam Song's face turned pale and her body swayed, and if it weren't for Cui'er's quick reaction to support her, she would have fallen to the ground.
"This Wu Keke, this pulse condition... seems like..."
Song Taizhen had not finished speaking when Madame Wu's face lit up with joy.
"She mistakenly took some herbal medicine, resulting in a slippery pulse phenomenon... In fact, Wu Keke's body was not pregnant at all!"
"It's impossible... how can this be? How can this be? How can..."
Wu shouted and then muttered to herself under Yongzheng's stern gaze.
Zhang was diagnosed with a cold, and Jia Yuanchun had no serious illness.
"Congratulations, Geng Geng, this is a happy pulse, from the pulse image, it's already been over two months."
As soon as Song Taizhen finished speaking, the eyes in the room shot towards Geng like needles.
