Donggong Zhangjiao

Zhongcui Palace.

"Imperial doctor, what's going on with my stomach? I always feel vaguely uncomfortable. I can't sleep well at night. My chest feels tight and I feel irritable. Isn't it because the fetus hasn't sat firmly in the first three months? That's why it's like this. , why am I still like this after more than four months?"

Leaning on the beauty's couch, Concubine Yang asked irritably.

Doctor Wu stood aside, also frowning.

"My Majesty, I no longer feel so unwell some time ago, but I feel uncomfortable again. Is it after the Third Prince fell into the water and fell ill?"

"Yes, after the third prince fell ill, the queen has been worrying and worrying for days. The third prince is prone to nightmares and crying at night. Now that he lives in the Dongnuan Pavilion in the main hall, he always wakes up the queen."

Si Qi, who was waiting at the side, hurriedly answered.

Upon hearing this, Doctor Wu said in a deep voice.

"A pregnant woman's rest is not only about physical rest, but also about mentally thinking and worrying less. Sometimes, having a quiet mind is more beneficial than sitting and resting for half a day. Your Majesty has to worry about three things during the day. Prince, I worry about the Third Prince again at night, I can’t sleep well, I’m so exhausted physically and mentally, won’t it hurt my body and my fetus?”

"But the child's illness has just improved, and I can't always ignore him."

Concubine Yang looked worried and slightly impatient.

He said this not because he felt sorry for the third prince, but because of the eyes of Pei Yao and other people in the harem, he could not ignore the sick child.

"Why don't I show it to the third prince, prescribe a prescription to cure the nightmare, and ask the third prince to drink it. The third prince will stop crying at night, and the queen can sleep better." Dr. Wu suggested.

But what he said reminded Concubine Yang.

Concubine Yang's eyes flickered slightly, then she asked casually.

"I remember that the third prince cried a lot the night before he fell into the water. I asked you to prescribe a calming soup for him to drink. He didn't cry that night. Since this thing is effective, why don't you prescribe some more."

Hearing Concubine Yang's words, Imperial Physician Wu was stunned for a moment, then thought about it for a while before speaking.

"Mother, the Third Prince is still young. Unless there are special circumstances, it is not appropriate to give the soothing medicine to the child. Wei Chen prescribed the medicine that night. It turned out that the Third Prince had fallen asleep during the day and had a high fever at night. He was overly frightened and needed a good sleep. , if you still drink it now”

"Do you mind drinking for seven or eight days?"

Ignoring what Dr. Wu said earlier, Concubine Yang interrupted him and asked directly.

Doctor Wu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"It's not good to take it for a long time. If you just drink it for seven or eight days, it won't be a big deal."

After receiving this answer, Concubine Yang said in a deep voice.

"In that case, let's give him a prescription. In another seven or eight days, his illness will be completely cured and he can move out of Dongnuang Pavilion and go back to his side hall to rest."

Hearing this, Dr. Wu wanted to say something more, but when he looked up and saw Concubine Yang's tired and irritable face, he had to swallow the words in his mouth.

Yes, his main responsibility is to raise Concubine Yang's fetus, not to take care of the third prince's health.

For the sake of Concubine Yang's belly, it's better to be obedient.

After prescribing the medicine, Doctor Wu left Zhongcui Palace and returned to the Imperial Hospital.

Along the way, I felt a little guilty in my heart.

He intuitively felt that something was wrong with Concubine Yang's pregnancy when she was pregnant, but no matter how he felt her pulse, the pulse signs he got were only due to damage to the mother's vitality.

After finally waiting for the first three months, the fetal condition has been stable for a while, but why has it suddenly become weak again in the past few days?

No other reason could be diagnosed from the pulse pattern. It seemed that it was because Concubine Yang had worked so hard that she had damaged the fetal pulse.

But the fetus will be five months old in a few days, and it's still so easy to become unstable. I'm afraid this pregnancy is not good.

Thinking of this, Doctor Wu tightened his mind and prepared to observe for a short period of time. If it got better or not, he would have to talk to Concubine Yang about it.

At that time, in Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Yang was also worried about her unborn child.

He held Si Qi's hand, lay back on the couch, and complained a few words. "It's all my fault that those dog slaves didn't take good care of the child. If the third prince hadn't fallen into the water, why should I have been so worried and troubled? The same goes for the child. He has no manliness at all. He loves to cry like a girl. He won't sleep at night and cries. Crying, I don’t know why I’m crying!”

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Si Qi brought a large pillow and comforted her softly, "My Majesty, I just need to think less about outside things now. It is proper to take good care of the fetus. On the Third Prince's side, the servant will give instructions to call the wet nurse. There are so many ways to coax her, and besides, there are also medicines prescribed by Dr. Wu."

Concubine Yang sighed, "It doesn't matter, I can't control that much now."

Having said this, he remembered something again and gave Si Qi instructions again.

"You should keep an eye on me when you are outside. If my brother comes in with a letter, please tell me immediately."

"Don't worry, Madam, all the servants know it." Si Qi nodded.

After explaining this, Concubine Yang closed her eyes and rested.

Little did he know that in the Yuzhang Palace on the other side, Fang Yun had already changed his clothes and carried the food box to Jingqian Palace.

The things Pei Yao mentioned some time ago have not been completed yet, so she has to implement them.

When people arrive outside Jingqian Palace, someone comes to greet them.

However, after being told that there were two adults talking to the emperor inside, Fang Yun waited outside for a while.

In less than a stick of incense, the queen's father, Prime Minister Lu, and Prince Dun came out.

The three of them saluted each other, and Fang Yun was taken in by Hong Zheng.

"emperor."

"You're here." Pei Yao waved to her, "Come and sit."

Fang Yun nodded, withdrew his green face, and walked over with the food box in hand.

"I thought that the emperor drank too much wine last night and was worried that he would feel uncomfortable in his stomach today, so he asked the small kitchen to prepare a clear soup that nourishes the stomach and sent it to the emperor."

"You are still attentive. I have been talking to Prime Minister Lu and Prince Dun for a long time, and my mouth is a bit dry."

Pei Yao looked in a good mood and opened the food box by himself.

Fang Yun took out the white porcelain soup cup and handed it to him.

Open the lid and the aroma will hit your nostrils.

"Here, you taste it first." Pei Yao took a spoonful and fed it to Fang Yun.

Seeing this, Fang Yun didn't refuse and took a sip from his hand.

"The heat is excellent, fresh and sweet, please drink it, Your Majesty."

Pei Yao nodded and drank slowly, spoonful by spoonful.

At this time, Fang Yun took the initiative to speak.

"Does Your Majesty know that Zhongcui Palace has invited the imperial doctor this morning? It is said that Concubine Yang is not feeling well. She even took leave of absence from the Queen Mother's morning greetings. I feel a little worried."

"I heard what Hong Zheng said, but I will discuss matters with Prime Minister Lu and King Dun after I leave the court. Now you are here again, and I haven't gone to see you yet. What, is the situation serious?"

Putting down the spoon in his hand, Pei Yao asked.

Fang Yun shook his head, "I haven't gone to see you yet. Concubine Yang is raising her fetus behind closed doors, and she doesn't like to be disturbed. I don't dare to visit rashly. It's just that I'm in charge of the harem affairs, and I'm always worried about what I did." No, Concubine Yang is feeling unwell."

"No." Pei Yao said without hesitation, "You have always been prudent and careful. Her palace is as meticulous as the queen's in terms of application. She also has a separate small kitchen for cooking. How can it have anything to do with you?"

After a pause, Pei Yao gave instructions to Hong Zheng.

"Go and call the imperial doctor who is treating Concubine Yang and ask her what happened to Concubine Yang's fetal appearance." (End of Chapter)
