Chapter 1467 Ben Gong has fought hard
Returning to the city from Shenji Camp, Jiajing no longer allowed He Zhier to ride a horse, and he was not allowed to ride a carriage. Because he thought the carriage was too bumpy, he ordered the Jinyiwei to get a comfortable sedan chair for He Zhier to sit on. He was afraid that she would be hot, so he brought another bucket of ice and put it in the sedan to cool down. It was so well cared for.
After returning to Chengqian Palace, Jiajing immediately asked Li Yanwen, the head of the Imperial Hospital, to take He Zhier's pulse. He was a little untrustful to the military doctor, so he felt that he would rather ask Li Yanwen to confirm it before he could feel relieved.
Soon, Li Yanwen rushed over with the medicine box on his back. Jiajing did not reveal the news that He Zhier was happy, but only said that the imperial concubine was a little unwell and asked Li Yanwen to treat her.
Li Yan did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly sat down to take He Zhier's pulse. However, the famous doctor is worthy of being a famous doctor. Lao Li only took the pulse for a moment and smiled and congratulated Jiajing: "Emperor, Imperial Concubine is a happy pulse. Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the imperial concubine."
Jiajing smiled and said with some annoyance when he heard this: "If I had known that I would not have brought Sister Zhier out of the city today, and you would have fainted."
Li Yanwen frowned and said, "Did the Imperial Concubine faint today?"
He Zhier nodded with a blushing face, and Li Yanwen hurriedly said, "Then Rong Chen will take another pulse for the concubine."
Jiajing couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he heard this. Sister Zhier's head had been severely damaged and had amnesia. Don't have any brain problems.
Li Yanwen carefully treated He Zhier, and finally nodded, "It's not a serious problem, it's just a slight heatstroke, but you should take care of yourself in the future, and do not expose yourself to the sun in the scorching sun, and don't overwork."
Jiajing sighed and taught a lesson: "Sister Zhier can hear it clearly. Don't mess around again in the future. Let the steam engine be aside for the time being."
He Zhier was depressed.
Li Yanwen picked up a pen and wrote a prescription to Jiajing, and told him: "This is a warm and tonic medicine to calm the fetus and invigorate qi. Take one dose a day for three consecutive days. Then I will give the imperial concubine a follow-up visit. If it is not in the way, I can maintain it according to normal diet."
"Thank you, Dr. Li." He Zhier said politely.
Li Yan heard the truth and was about to leave with the medicine box on his back, but a palace servant outside shouted: "The Empress Dowager is here, the Empress Dowager is here."
He Zhier suddenly showed a look of fear. Empress Dowager Jiang never liked her to do craftsmanship. Before she married into the palace, Empress Dowager Jiang explicitly prohibited her from entering the military battle. Jiajing secretly opened a small workshop in the palace for her and did it without telling her.
He Zhier was a little afraid of Empress Dowager Jiang. She knew very well that she was not liked by Empress Dowager Jiang, so she rarely took the initiative to go to Cining Palace, and Empress Dowager Jiang rarely set foot in Chengqian Palace.
Now that Empress Dowager Jiang actually took the initiative to come to her residence, He Zhier was naturally a little panicked, worried that the matter of leaving the city to test the steam engine today would be exposed.
Jiajing shook his beloved concubine's hand considerately and threw comforting eyes. He Zhier couldn't help but feel relieved.
After a moment, Empress Dowager Jiang and Empress Wu walked in surrounded by the palace people. Concubine Shu and Concubine De were also present. Li Yanwen quickly put down the medicine box and knelt down to salute.
"I'm here to see the emperor." Empress Wu took the lead in saluting Jiajingfu, but her eyes were exploring and slipping towards He Zhier.
Jiajing raised his hand and said, "Don't give me a gift, why are you here, Mother?"
"I have met the Queen Mother and the Queen's sister." He Zhier stood up and gave a careful gift.
Empress Dowager Jiang's eyes fell on He Zhier, and she said happily: "Concubine He is exempt from gifts. The emperor, the Ai family heard that Concubine He is happy, but it is true."
Jiajing immediately smiled and said, "The news about the queen mother is really well-versed. Yes, Zhier is indeed happy. I just asked Dr. Li to confirm it."
Empress Dowager Jiang couldn't help but smile happily when she heard this, and put her hands together and said, "Amitabha Buddha, the ancestors appeared."
Jiajing had no children for seven or eight years since his marriage, and now he finally "flowered and bear fruit". It is estimated that Empress Dowager Jiang has attributed it to the result of worshiping Xianling.
When Empress Wu heard that He Zhier was indeed pregnant, her face was slightly dark. The expressions of Concubine Shu and Concubine De were also a little complicated, but they all quickly smiled and congratulated Jiajing and He Zhier.
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to sister Zhier." Although Empress Wu was extremely reluctant, she still forced herself to congratulate He Zhier with a smile.
"Doctor Li is up to you, thank you for your hard work." Empress Dowager Jiang smiled and raised her hand. Li Yanwen then stood up and said respectfully: "No, this is what I should do."
Empress Dowager Jiang nodded and asked again: "Is Concubine He healthy? What medicine did he prescribe? How long has he been pregnant?"
"The imperial concubine's health is not serious. She only has a slight heatstroke. Drink some soup to relieve heat and rest for a few days. I also prescribed a pair of warm and tonic pills for the imperial concubine. According to my estimate, the imperial concubine's fetus is less than two months old." Li Yanwen replied.
Empress Dowager Jiang nodded, seemed to hesitate for a moment, and finally asked: "Based on the verdict of Doctor Li's experience, is Concubine He pregnant with a prince or a princess."
As soon as this said, Queen Wu unconsciously clenched her fists. Concubine Shu and Concubine De also stretched their ears, but Jiajing frowned secretly and subconsciously glanced at Queen Wu.
Li Yanwen lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and said carefully: "The fetus has not yet taken shape, so it is difficult for me... to judge."
Empress Dowager Jiang nodded and did not ask any further questions. She waved her hand and signaled that Li Yanwen could leave. The latter was relieved and carried the medicine box and walked out of Chengqian Palace quickly.
Although Li Yanwen was just an imperial physician, his political sense was still very sensitive. Now the emperor has only one descendant, and he was born to Empress Wu. He is both the eldest son and the eldest son of the emperor. According to the rules, he will be made the crown prince in the future. However, who doesn’t know that the emperor favors Concubine He more, and he gave birth to Concubine He is also the sister of Prince Beijing. If Concubine He also gave birth to a prince, then the status of the eldest son Zhu Zaiji will undoubtedly be strongly threatened.
Although King Beijing seems to be out of favor now, his prestige and influence in the army are still unmatched. At present, almost all the outstanding generals in the army are the old subordinates of King Beijing Xu Jin, among which Xie Erjian and Xie Sanqian are Xu Jin's brother-in-law and brother-in-law. Who dares to underestimate it?
Therefore, even if Li Yanwen could determine the gender of the fetus in He Zhier's womb, he would not dare to say it in public, so as not to get himself in!
After Empress Dowager Jiang sent Li Yanwen away, she turned around and asked He Zhier about her well-being, and then told her to take good care of her, and she would just say anything she needed, and would give her a blessing every day, so she would not be able to pay any respects to her every day, etc. This made He Zhier a little flattered. Empress Wu became more and more jealous as she heard it. She sat with her patiently for half an hour before finally waiting for Empress Dowager Jiang to get up and leave. She also left immediately, without wanting to stay for a moment.
Let’s talk about Empress Wu returning to Kunning and drank two bowls of mung bean soup in a row. She was still angry and secretly scolded Empress Dowager Jiang, the old woman who was biased and did not have such treatment when she was pregnant.
As the saying goes, jealousy can not only blind people's eyes, but also blind people's hearts. In fact, the privileges that Empress Wu enjoyed when she was pregnant were not less than He Zhier. This is often the case with people's hearts. It is easy to take others' good to you for granted. If others treat you badly, even if it is just a little bad, they will hold a grudge firmly.
Just as Queen Wu was about to drink the third bowl of mung bean soup, Bi Chun walked in and bowed with a smile: "I pay homage to the Queen."
"Get up!" Queen Wu said impatiently.
Bi Chun stood up and smiled and said, "The Empress is in a bad mood today?"
Queen Wu snorted coldly: "He Zhier's fox spirit is pregnant with a dragon seed. Can I be happy?"
Bi Chun's expression changed when he heard this and blurted out: "No, Concubine He was favored by the emperor. If he gave birth to a prince this time, it would be even more amazing. Maybe even Xu Jin would be respected by the emperor again."
Empress Wu gritted her teeth and said, "This is what I am worried about."
Bi Chun's eyes rolled, his plan came to his heart, and lowered his voice: "Empress, our family has a clever plan to get rid of Xu Jin's confidant disaster, but he didn't know if the Empress dared to do it."
Queen Wu's expression changed and she said in a deep voice: "Let's talk first."
Bi Chun whispered: "Eunuch Xia, who lives away from dust, sent someone to inform our family that Xu Jin will come to the mansion tomorrow to paint a portrait of Princess Yongfu."
Queen Wu immediately frowned and said, "So what? This is not the first time Xu Jin has painted a portrait of Yongfu. Moreover, after returning to Beijing, this person has only a few times to stay in the dust. I now have a little doubt that I have taken a look. Maybe there is no affair between Xu Jin and Yongfu."
Bi Chun immediately shook his head and said, "Impossible, did the Empress forget the situation when the White Lotus Demon Zhao Quan wanted to kill Xu Jin in Cining Palace? Princess Yongfu actually blocked Xu Jin. How could there be no affair between the two?"
Queen Wu thought about it carefully for a moment and nodded, "It's true, but Yongfu has moved to Xiachen Housing for a few years, and neither of them is in trouble."
Bi Chun sneered: "I guess Xu Jin is concerned about Princess Yongfu's identity, so he dare not take action."
Queen Wu frowned and said, "It's a long way to go. You just said that there is a plan to get rid of Xu Jin. What is the plan?"
Bi Chun smiled and said in a dark smile: "We can conclude that even if there is no personal relationship between Xu Jin and Princess Yongfu, there must be an ambiguous relationship. However, due to their identity, neither of them dares to step over the line. Hehe, as the saying goes, drink to make cowards brave. When Xu Jin passes his house to paint a portrait of Princess Yongfu tomorrow, just..."
Bi Chun said this and whispered a few times in Queen Wu's ear. The latter blushed and said a little worriedly: "There won't be a problem like this, right? If the emperor investigates it, it will be troublesome."
Bi Chun laughed and said, "Just mixing it in a small amount in tea, drinking it will not cause people to lose their nature, but it can help their sex slightly. If there is indeed a problem between the two, it will inevitably... Hehe, I will not notice that there is a problem afterwards, and others will be unable to detect it."
