Chapter 79 Bad things come in pairs (1)

King Jing promised Princess An'er that as long as the affairs in the palace could be handled well, he could open a medical clinic outside the palace. An'er worked hard for this goal every day. But in the imperial capital Luoyang, His Majesty seemed to be busy with something.

Worrying.

Above the court, General Zhuang and several ministers were discussing military matters with His Majesty...

General Zhuang: "Your Majesty, today the guards in the city discovered a few suspicious people. Although they were dressed the same, they were actually spying on us."

His Majesty: "Can we find out where this person entered the country from?"

General Zhuang: "Your Majesty, I'm just guessing that it's probably from Jingzhou."

Prime Minister Right: "General Zhuang, why do you guess so?"

General Zhuang: "Since the emperor ascended the throne, the situation on the border has been stable. Only Tuyuhun has changed. If Tuyuhun wants to reach Luoyang, he must pass through Jingzhou."

His Majesty: "General Zhuang, are you sure these people are foreigners?"

General Zhuang: "I am sure, will your Majesty order the arrest now?"

Right Prime Minister: "I think that these people may be the first to explore and may be connected to other people. I think it is better to observe the trends first and catch them all in one fell swoop."

Your Majesty: "The Prime Minister is right. General Zhuang will arrange to strengthen the defense of the imperial city. If there is any abnormal movement, he will be arrested."

General Zhuang: "This is Your Majesty. I will prepare the deployment right away."

After the discussion, Concubine Han came to His Majesty's bedroom.

Concubine Han: "Your Majesty, I heard that you are busy with state affairs, so I personally cooked the soothing soup."

Your Majesty: "My beloved concubine has a heart."

Concubine Han: "Your Majesty, I have something happy to tell you. The imperial doctor checked the pulse today and said that Gu Changzai's fetus is very healthy and strong."

His Majesty: "Really? Why are you so strong?"

Concubine Han: "The imperial doctor said that my sister's fetus will grow larger than that of a person of the same month."

His Majesty: "Well, then I'll ask your concubine to help me take care of it."

Concubine Han: "Your Majesty, I must do my best."

Concubine Han knew very well that these days, she often sent supplements to Gu Changzai, and outsiders could not tell. In fact, if the fetal supplements did not bring down the mother's body, they would also bring down the fetus.

Early the next morning, the palace officials came to report that Gu Changzai had fainted...

His Majesty and Concubine Han came to Gu Changzai's palace together.

His Majesty: "Jiang Si Yao, is Chang Zai's fetus okay?"

Jiang Si Yao: "Back to Your Majesty, this morning someone from the palace came to report that Gu Changzai was feeling unwell after having breakfast and fainted. I have checked his pulse. The fetus has absorbed too much nutrients from the mother's body, and Gu Changzai was weak, so he suffered the disease."

Can’t live.”

His Majesty: "Is there any way?"

Jiang Si Yao: "If this continues, Gu Changzai will be unable to bear it sooner or later, so he can only use decoction to sustain him. However, if the fetus is too large, there will be danger during delivery."

Your Majesty: "What, didn't my beloved concubine say that Chang Zai's fetus is healthy and strong?" Concubine Han immediately knelt down.

Concubine Han: "Concubine, it's the same... I didn't know this would happen."

His Majesty: "I hope nothing happens to her. Jiang Si Yao will trouble you now."

Jiang Si Yao: "I will take good care of Gu Changzai. However, your Majesty, I would like to ask you to discuss the specific method with the doctors at the Imperial Medical Office."

Your Majesty: "I'm sure."

(Jingzhou Kingdom)

An'er was secretly in the study, reading medical books. She thought that the king had gone to the council hall and would not come back too early. Just when she was looking at it, she didn't expect that Chu Yu was watching her from the side.

An'er: "Hey, what does this word mean?"

Chu Yu: "This character is read: Neck."

An'er: "Nie, thank you." An'er was petrified in an instant.

An'er: "When did the king come?"

Chu Yu: "This is my study. You are hiding here to read medical books. Have you already taken care of everything in the house?"

An'er immediately stood up and put down her books: "Well, I checked the accounts today and urged all departments to monitor the purchased items."

Chu Yu: "It's not bad. You know, it's been raining a lot lately. I'm very worried about flooding."

An'er: "Is there a river in Jingzhou?"

Chu Yu: "Of course there is. This river is the Jingxiang River. There have been floods before, so we have to keep a close eye on it recently."

An'er: "Why not build a dam?"

Chu Yu: "The river is long and it takes a lot of work."

An'er: "But no matter what, I think you must have a way to solve it."

Chu Yu: "Well, as long as you are here, I will do my best to nip it in the bud."
