Chapter 190
Chapter 190
Zhong Shao didn't stay in his mansion that day, he solemnly put away the precious pill of pregnancy and hurried back to the palace before the key was released at the palace gate.It's just that along the way, I couldn't help but raise my hand to touch the wooden box containing the elixir, and at the same time, I was a little worried.
In fact, before leaving the palace today, Zhong Shao had guessed that Xu Wenjin was looking for her probably because of the issue of her heirs, because recently she only had this one worry, and last time she came out of the palace to ask Xu Wenjin about advice.But after thinking about it, it was obviously impossible for her to come to such a "ridiculous" result. She thought that Xu Wenjin could at most find a way to hide it from her, and then go to adopt a child and come back.
My child, my own bloodline is naturally tens of millions of times better than the one I adopted, but this matter is really ridiculous to her and Xiao Mo!
Inadvertently, she returned to the Chonghua Hall with such a worried look, and she bumped into Xiao Mo just as she stepped into the main hall.The latter was obviously waiting for her in the main hall, especially when he saw that her expression was not right, he hurriedly asked, "Ah Shao, why do you look so ugly? The two gentlemen invited you out of the palace this time, but what happened?" ?”
Zhong Shao heard the words, and subconsciously touched the wooden box again, she really wanted to confess to Xiao Mo, and then the two of them discussed whether the medicine could be used.However, when the words came to his lips, he couldn't get out no matter what. It was too unbelievable. Even a person like her who had seen all the magic of the system couldn't accept this so-called pregnancy pill, so what would Xiao Mo do? Accept it?
What's more, she couldn't explain the origin of this elixir at all, let alone reveal the existence of the system.It was a kind of intuition, she could tacitly communicate with the raiders, but there are some things that can't be announced, and if you say it, there will inevitably be some irreversible results.
So after hesitating for a while, Zhong Shao still shook his head, not daring to tell Xiao Mo the truth, he just said vaguely: "It's nothing, but I mentioned the matter of the child to the gentlemen when I left the palace before, and they found it for me. a medicine."
When Xiao Mo heard this, he didn't ask any more questions, but sighed, "Ah Shao, I've really suffered for you."
Obviously, Xiao Mo misunderstood something, but this is not her fault, it is because the matter about the medicine has already happened.
Since the Dragon Boat Festival, Emperor Yongning has sent the imperial physician more than once, Zhong Shao hid every time, and Xiao Mo had his pulse checked every time.Although she was born with a little frailty, but she was raised with gold and jade, there is actually no problem with her body, and there is no problem with her children.
However, Xiao Mo's health is fine, but the son-in-law's loving husband and wife have been childless for many years. Coupled with Zhong Shao's evasive attitude, it is obviously very misleading.So the imperial physician took it for granted that Zhong Shao was the cause of the childlessness, and then reported it to Emperor Yongning by the way.From then on, all kinds of medicinal materials began to be sent to Chonghua Hall, and all of them were for nourishing kidney and strengthening yang!
Zhong Shao wanted to cry but had no tears, but the medicinal materials bestowed by the emperor could not be used, so various decoctions were sent to her every day.I have no choice but to find a time when no one is paying attention, and feed all the potted plants in the room. So far, the potted plants have been replaced twice...
Xiao Mo thought that Xu Wenjin and Zhong Shao were also looking for this kind of medicine, so naturally he could understand why Zhong Shao had such an ugly face.It's just that she is also worried, although the medicine is not given to her, but this is not the way to go, and she also feels distressed when she sees Zhong Shao's face stiffened every time he faces those soups and medicines.
My child, this problem is really a headache. It's only half a year, so what should I do in the long future? !
************************************************** **********
Zhong Shao and Xiao Mo were not the only ones who were worried about the child, the two older ladies obviously also took this matter to heart.
The Concubine Gui was really afraid that Emperor Yongning's identity would be discovered by Emperor Yongning. She knew that if Emperor Yongning discovered Zhong Shao's identity at this time, the other party's first thought would not be fulfillment, but how to make Zhong Shao Disappeared without a sound.Perhaps Emperor Yongning would not want Zhong Shao's life for his own sake, but she would never let her stay by Xiao Mo's side either.
Well, I'm afraid that Emperor Yongning's "finding a new love" is fake, after all, she really doesn't want to have children at her age.But the Concubine Gui was really afraid that her daughter would reveal her identity at this time, and then she and Xiao Mo would not have any good results.And after this, the Concubine Gui also had a little selfishness, she was afraid that because of Zhong Shao and Xiao Mo's matter, Emperor Yongning would reject her even more and would stay away from her even more.
Compared with the entanglement of the noble concubine, Emperor Yongning's thoughts are much simpler.She doesn't know Zhong Shao's secret, but she is not a heartless person, seeing the deep affection between Zhong Shao and Xiao Mo, naturally she will not easily think of breaking up.But the problem of children always needs to be solved. After all, every family and country needs an heir.Since Zhong Shao has a problem with his body, it is time to solve this problem!
So after learning about Zhong Shao's "concealed diseases and avoiding doctors", the imperial physician ran to the Chonghua Palace seven or eight times but failed to catch her to diagnose the pulse, Emperor Yongning planned to do it himself.
This day happened to be Xiu Mu, but this kind of Xiu Mu has nothing to do with Zhong Shao, after all, Yu Lin's duty is to guard the imperial city, everyone can't be off duty just because of Xiu Mu, let's all go home and rest.Yubayashi's Xiumu is on rotation, and usually five days can be scheduled for one day, but it is actually easier and more flexible than the ministers.
Zhong Shao didn't take a bath this day, but the civil and military officials in the whole dynasty did not take a bath, so the emperor rarely had free time.So at noon Zhong Shao was patrolling the palace, when suddenly someone came looking for her, saying that His Majesty had summoned her and asked her to go to the Xuanshi Hall as soon as possible.
When he got this news, Zhong Shao felt that something was wrong. After all, the Xuanshi Hall was the emperor's bedroom, and Emperor Yongning was a woman. He always met foreign ministers in the Xuanzheng Hall or the Imperial Study Room. Has someone been summoned by the palace?Even though Zhong Shao was a son-in-law, she often went to Xuanshi Hall, but she never went there alone, always accompanied by Xiao Mo.
Zhong Shao had doubts in her heart, but the emperor couldn't refuse to go because of her little doubts, so she had no choice but to suppress the restlessness in her heart, and hurried away with the messenger.
When he stepped into the front hall of the Xuanshi Hall, Zhong Shao felt his scalp tingle. There was no other reason, but at this moment, besides Emperor Yongning, there was only one person standing in the hall.She didn't know who that person was, but she knew his clothes—it was the imperial doctor's official uniform!
With just one glance, Zhong Shao knew why Emperor Yongning had summoned her here today, but she had been hiding for so long, and it was finally time when she couldn't hide.So he had no choice but to look back, and stepped forward to salute: "Chen Zhongshao, see Your Majesty."
Emperor Yongning's expression was peaceful, and he didn't say anything to Zhong Shao just because she might have a physical problem, but nodded and said: "Excuse me. I heard that you missed going to the Chonghua Hall for a pulse check these days because of your duty. The Imperial Physician, it just so happened that today the Imperial Physician came to examine the pulse of Ping An, and when I remembered you, I was summoned, and I happened to have the Imperial Physician examine it together.”
After she finished speaking, the imperial physician also turned around, raised his hand and saluted Zhong Shao: "Your Majesty has seen the son-in-law."
Zhong Shao nodded stiffly, but she didn't stretch out her hand until the imperial doctor came to her.Until the imperial physician said again: "My son-in-law, please stretch out your left hand, and let the official diagnose your pulse."
Naturally, this pulse cannot be diagnosed by others, especially the imperial physicians in the palace, each of them is an expert in Xinglin, once she feels the pulse, she can't hide anything.So even though Emperor Yongning was "watching" beside him, Zhong Shao still bit the bullet and shook his head and said, "No, I'm in good health, there's nothing wrong with it, so I don't need to bother the imperial physician."
The imperial doctor obviously knew something, but he didn't persuade him.After all, compared to the woman Emperor Yongning, he is still a man, and he can better understand how much men care about this aspect, and talking indiscriminately will offend others.So he only turned his attention to Emperor Yongning.
Emperor Yongning's expression was still calm. Although she had only been on the throne for half a year, she had lived and raised her body, and half a year was enough for her to develop the majesty of an emperor.Therefore, compared to half a year ago, the calmness at this moment has become more coercive: "It's just a pulse check for peace, and I have to get a pulse check if I have nothing to do. I'm fine, so don't I have a regular pulse check? What's more, the imperial physician is already here. , there is no need to bother."
Being able to get the emperor's kind persuasion is actually giving Zhong Shao a lot of face. Seeing this, the imperial doctor couldn't help but have a higher opinion of Zhong Shao.However, Zhong Shao really didn't dare to accept this "good intention". She was a little anxious seeing Emperor Yongning's irrefutable appearance, but the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't think of a way out.In fact, there is no way to think about it, after all, the person in front of her is the emperor, and no one can resist what she is going to do.
Just when Zhong Shao hesitated and didn't know what to do, his mother fell from the sky again and rescued her.
I saw the noble concubine carrying a food box in her hand, and Shi Shiran carried it into the hall. She was still a little dazed when she saw the scene in front of her, and then asked: "What's the matter? The atmosphere is so heavy, and there is an imperial doctor here. But what happened?"
The imperial physician and Zhong Shao hurriedly saluted the noble concubine again, but Zhong Shao was also relieved to see her coming.
Emperor Yongning couldn't help softening the eyes of the imperial concubine when he saw the imperial concubine, and even stood up to greet her, and said: "It's nothing. The imperial physician happened to come to diagnose the Ping'an pulse with me today. I thought Ah Shao missed it several times, so I I summoned her and planned to let the imperial physician also have a consultation with her."
As he spoke, Emperor Yongning walked up to the Concubine Gui, and then his eyes narrowed - she noticed that there was a slight reflection on the Concubine's forehead, which was the fine beads of sweat that had just soaked out.Although it's midsummer now, it's not surprising to be sweating, but Concubine Gui has always loved beauty, especially in front of Emperor Yongning. She has never seen her appear in front of her in such a "worry" for no reason. .
The imperial concubine didn't know that Emperor Yongning had doubts in her heart, so she took Emperor Yongning's arm affectionately and walked back to the seat. She put the food box in her hand on the table without mentioning Zhong Shao , just asked: "Have you had a pulse diagnosis in Ping An? Are you still in good health? You suffered such a huge loss before, so you still have to eat this medicinal diet."
The imperial physician at the side took the initiative to report back: "Please don't worry, my concubine, Your Majesty's dragon is in good health. Although it was damaged before, it can be brought back after slowly raising it. As for the prescription of the medicinal diet, if it needs to be changed, the imperial hospital will send someone to send it to you." Going to Linhua Hall."
After hearing the words, the noble concubine said: "In this way, I can rest assured that there is nothing wrong here, so you should step back first."
It is not a secret that Emperor Yongning and Concubine Gui have a close relationship. The friendship between these two people can even be traced back to nearly 20 years ago, so no one thinks there is anything wrong with their intimacy.The people in the palace knew how indulgent Emperor Yongning was to the imperial concubine, she was able to get rid of her, she broke into the bedroom, and the palace servants of the Xuanshi Palace were also at her disposal, His Majesty never said anything.
Such an order seemed natural, but this time the imperial physician did not dare to agree, and just raised his head to look at Emperor Yongning.
Emperor Yongning frowned slightly, not because of the concubine's overstepping, but because she protected Zhong Shao again and again.Ordinary protection is fine, but every time she opens her mouth, what she interrupts is the matter of the heirs. Today, even after getting the news, she hurried over...
With all these things, the doubts in Emperor Yongning's heart became deeper and deeper, so for the first time, he did not follow the concubine's intentions, but instead glanced at the imperial physician and said, "Don't be in a hurry to step down, the son-in-law is safe. The pulse has not been checked yet, you should check with her first before talking."
When Gui Doufei heard this, her heart skipped a beat, but she was also a smart person, knowing that her repeated actions had aroused Emperor Yongning's suspicion.She shouldn't say it again, but she couldn't help being worried, and after hesitating for a while, she still said: "Ah Shao is in good health..."
However, this time, before the Concubine Gui had finished speaking, Emperor Yongning suddenly raised his palm and interrupted her words, with the same sentence: "It's just the Ping'an pulse, and you can have a diagnosis even if you are healthy. This is the duty of the imperial hospital. Don’t you and I check the pulse regularly too?”
This made the Concubine Gui speechless, but Zhong Shao's mood was ups and downs.She originally thought that her mother would arrive in time to save her from the fire and water again, but the development of the matter has taken a turn for the worse. If they continue like this, His Majesty will really be suspicious.
After hearing Emperor Yongning's words, the imperial physician came to Zhong Shao again, with the same gentle and polite attitude as before: "My son-in-law, please stretch out your left hand, and let the official diagnose your pulse."
Zhong Shao's scalp is numb, but she knows that this pulse cannot be diagnosed no matter what.She lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand and saluted Emperor Yongning, saying: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
Emperor Yongning raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, wondering if Zhong Shao wanted to confess to her that he was not healthy, and begged her to forgive him?But she didn't intend to punish Zhong Shao because of this, after all, her own daughter recognized this husband-in-law, so she didn't need to be such a bad guy who beat mandarin ducks.She only thinks about treating illnesses when she is sick.
The Concubine Gui was taken aback by Zhong Shao's solemn appearance, and thought she was planning to tell everything.
However, after getting the approval of Emperor Yongning, Zhong Shao's words were beyond their expectations, and she said with a serious face: "I know why your majesty wants me to take a pulse today. But the body of the minister is really serious. No problem, this matter, you can ask the servants in the bedroom to find out about it." She blushed when she said this, and continued: "The matter of the son, the matter of the son... at the latest three months later, there will be a meeting." Believe it!"
What Zhong Shao said was so categorical that people had to believe it, but his little face, which was finally whitened with great difficulty, turned red.
Having said everything so clearly, Emperor Yongning also felt a little embarrassed, especially when Zhong Shao even asked the palace people. In front of outsiders, Emperor Yongning, as a mother-in-law, really couldn't say anything more.
She coughed lightly, and said: "Since you know what's in your mind, then it's over, the imperial physician should step down first."
The imperial doctor saluted and resigned. Emperor Yongning let Zhong Shao go for the time being, but the imperial concubine stared straight at Zhong Shao——Daughter, you are not stupid, are you?Three months, three months how do you make Ah Mo pregnant and cuckold yourself? !
Zhong Shao obviously understood the gaze of the Concubine Gui, but he could only smile wryly and refused to explain.
The author has something to say:
The third birth was initiated, and the person involved could no longer bear it
Zhong Shao (gritting teeth): I gave birth, can I still give birth?Stop tossing me!
Concubine Gui (pointing angrily): Are you stupid? If you say that and hide for a while, what will you do in the future? !
Three months later...
