Ayane said, "Ever since the princess left the palace, my daughter has been particularly worried about her health. Madam Qin also opened the medicine collection in the Governor's Mansion and even used some medicine from the palace to barely keep the princess safe. Just now, the princess suddenly heard something and fainted because she couldn't control her emotions."
"Doctor Sun, is my princess in danger?"
Imperial Doctor Sun originally suspected that Princess Chen was pretending to faint, but he felt a chill down his spine after hearing Ayane's words that were full of implications.
Hearing the words "medicine storage in the Governor's Mansion", he suddenly shuddered, withdrew his hand and said with a heavy face: "The princess fainted because of the shock."
Ayane was worried: "When will she wake up?"
Doctor Sun: "…"
He was silent for a moment, looking at Princess Cheng's tightly closed eyes, and said carefully: "The princess is weak and pregnant. Since Lady Qin has already given her medicine, I can't prescribe another prescription, lest the conflict of medicine hurt the fetus. And since the young lady said that the princess fainted because of emotional excitement, then sleeping is a good thing for her."
"In the case of the princess, it may take as little as a cup of tea or as long as one or two ounces..."
Doctor Sun originally wanted to say an hour or two, but after taking a look at Lingyin, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and said, "At most one or two days, I think he will be able to wake up."
Ayane asked: "Is it possible to move?"
Doctor Sun was a little confused. How could he know whether they wanted to move? He remembered how the woman had just confronted Prince Cheng so forcefully and did not give him any face at all, while Princess Cheng had pretended to faint and had not mentioned leaving. So, they must want to continue to be "unconscious" in Prince Cheng's mansion?
Doctor Sun said tentatively: "The princess is weak, it is best not to move..."
"Doesn't that mean we have to stay in the palace?"
Doctor Sun wanted to change his words when he heard this, saying that it wouldn't matter if he moved a little, but Lingyin frowned and said reluctantly, "Forget it, then stay for two more days."
"The princess needs to rest. I would like to ask Doctor Sun to tell the prince about the princess's condition after he leaves, so that he won't bother her again." She paused, "As long as the princess is fine, my daughter and the governor will remember your kindness."
Doctor Sun paused for a moment and said, "Young lady, you are too kind."
He stood up:
"The Concubine Dowager is seriously ill, and tonight is a critical time. She still needs someone to take care of her. Since the Princess is fine, I will go back first. If there is anything wrong with the Princess, please send someone over. I will come over at any time."
"Excuse me, Doctor Sun."
Prince Cheng stood under the wooden corridor in the yard. It was already dark and it was impossible to see the expression on his face.
When Doctor Sun came out of the room, he saw her immediately and hurried forward to ask anxiously, "Doctor Sun, how is my princess ?"
Doctor Sun looked at the anxious Prince Cheng and tactfully acted as a mouthpiece: "The princess is in very poor health, and the fetus in her belly is not as healthy as usual. I took her pulse and found that her qi and blood are deficient, and she is depressed. She was frightened today, which is why she fainted suddenly."
"Thrilling and thrilling?" Prince Cheng whispered.
Doctor Sun nodded and said, "The pulse is like this, but the princess has been receiving acupuncture and medicine from Madam Qin to take care of her body. I can't prescribe any more medicines for fear of drug conflicts. Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Let the princess rest for a while, and she will wake up naturally."
"The princess is weak and pregnant, so she needs to rest quietly. She cannot tolerate noise, and must avoid excessive joy or anger, otherwise it will harm her body."
Prince Cheng's eyes darkened a little. Was he telling him not to come over and "harass" Rong Yue?
Doctor Sun thought he had said everything he needed to say, so he picked up his medicine box and prepared to go back to the old concubine in Prince Chen's mansion. However, he had only taken a few steps when Prince Chen stopped him.
"Doctor Sun."
"What else do you want, my lord?"
Prince Cheng asked in a low voice: "Can the baby in the princess' belly be saved?"
Seeing that Doctor Sun seemed puzzled as to why he suddenly asked this, Prince Cheng lowered his eyes and whispered, "This prince and the princess have been married for nearly twenty years. We love each other very much, but we only have one child, Yin. In the past few years, we were afraid that Yin would be lonely, so we kept seeking medical treatment and medicine to have another child, but she never got pregnant. I didn't expect that she would be pregnant at this time."
He smiled bitterly.
"I made a mistake in the Song family before, and the princess was upset about it. She didn't even want me to get closer to her. I thought she would dislike the child, but I didn't expect her to ask Madam Qin to help her with the pregnancy."
"I am a little worried. It is not easy for her to get pregnant at this age. If she can't keep the child, the love between us will be ruined..."
Prince Cheng had a bitter look on his face, and with his face full of stubble, he looked particularly depressed.
Doctor Sun comforted him in a gentle voice, "Don't say that, Your Majesty. Everyone in the capital knows about your relationship with the princess. It's a happy thing that the princess is pregnant. Although her pregnancy looks bad, it can still be saved if you are careful. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much."
King Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
After Imperial Doctor Sun spoke a few words to Prince Cheng, he left with his medicine box. However, once he left the hospital, the gentle expression on his face instantly disappeared.
He couldn't help but look back at King Cheng who was standing in the yard, and he felt his palms holding the medicine box were a little cold.
If Princess Chen had not pretended to faint before him, and if he had not first sensed something was wrong from the words of the woman under Governor Xiao, he would not have thought much about what Prince Chen had just said.
He would only think that Prince Cheng was really concerned about Princess Cheng's health and the baby in her womb. That bitter and infatuated love would make anyone feel that Prince Cheng loved her deeply.
But after what happened before, King Cheng's words made him shudder.
What does it mean that after being married for twenty years, she only has one son, Xie Yin, and she has been seeking medical treatment for many years but has never been able to get pregnant?
What does it mean that Princess Cheng is bothered by him and doesn't want to get close to him, but is particularly concerned about the child in her belly...
This statement sounds fine at first glance, but if the situation is changed, the wording is changed, or something else is added, wouldn't it make people doubt the bloodline of the child in Princess Cheng's belly?
Doctor Sun held the medicine box tightly in his hand, and suddenly he wanted to leave immediately.
I'm afraid there's going to be a big mess in Prince Cheng's palace.
He turned and walked towards the main gate of Prince Cheng's mansion, thinking of finding an excuse to go back to the Imperial Medical Office first. However, he didn't expect to walk a few steps before he was suddenly stopped by someone: "Imperial Doctor Sun."
Doctor Sun turned around and saw the person coming, and his eyes suddenly widened.
…
Princess Chen fainted, and Ayane stayed by her side closely.
Nanny Jiang waited anxiously for a long time. Seeing that Princess Cheng still hadn't woken up, she became a little anxious: "Miss Lingyin, the princess still hasn't woken up. Why don't we go and ask Madam Qin for help?"
"Lady Qin is still in the palace." Lingyin said, "The Empress Dowager can't leave without someone."
"But Princess..."
Nanny Jiang reached out and touched Princess Cheng's forehead, her eyes full of worry.
Ling Yin looked at Nanny Jiang, from her eyebrows to her behavior, and then to her expression and tone. She saw her gently pulling Princess Cheng's slightly cold hands to rub them for her. It was completely impossible to tell that her concern for Princess Cheng was fake. She lowered her eyes and said:
"Imperial Physician Sun has already said that the princess fainted because of a shock and will wake up naturally in a while."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Jiang said, "You shouldn't have told the princess about those things directly..."
"Why didn't you tell her? Prince Cheng deliberately approached the princess and plotted against her feelings. He lied to her for many years and pretended to be affectionate. Everything he did was despicable. Everything he did was harmful to her. She has the right to know." Ayane said coldly, "Or do you think that keeping it a secret from her is good for her?"
"That's not what I meant..."
"I know that Madam is the closest person to the princess, so she will naturally not stand by and watch outsiders bully the princess."
She said this lightly, but it made Madam Jiang's heart suffocate.
"Of course I won't."
Nanny Jiang was a little afraid to talk to Ayane, as she felt her gaze seemed to be able to see through her. She subconsciously lowered her eyes and avoided her gaze.
"The princess didn't use anything today, and I don't know when she will wake up at night. I'll ask someone to prepare some food, just in case the princess wakes up."
Ayane didn't embarrass her: "Okay."
After Nanny Jiang left, the door was closed. The lights in the room were shaking, and Princess Cheng, who had been lying on the bed and trying to keep her breathing steady, suddenly opened her eyes.
"She..." Princess Cheng sat up, her eyes red: "She and Xie Tianyu..."
"She must have bribed you in advance. At least, she is hiding something from you."
Princess Cheng's lips trembled.
Lingyin supported Princess Cheng, and seeing her red eyes, she held her wrist and said, "The governor and the girl made me alert the enemy. King Cheng must have become suspicious. He knows it is difficult to make peace with you. You have also remembered the past events, so he might be desperate."
"If the princess cannot bear what is coming next, I will have someone send you to Master Gu first. Since you are unconscious, just have someone guard the door..."
"Need not!"
Princess Cheng gritted her teeth. She had been kept in the dark and deceived for so many years.
She wanted to see how shameless Xie Tianyu was! !
