Chapter 595 The fetus is different
Chapter 595 The fetus is different
Watching Concubine Qi fleeing with her men, Cui Jinxi whispered words of comfort.
"Master, Concubine Qi is a timid person. Don't take her words to heart. Wait..."
Before Jinxi could finish her words, Zhen Huan grabbed her wrist and gave her orders with a pale face.
"Jinxi, I have a severe stomachache. Let's go back to the palace!"
"Yes, master."
Cui Jinxi supported Zhen Huan as she walked back, while hurriedly pointing at two people.
"Go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Dr. Wen to come over."
"Go back to Zhongcui Palace and order a sedan chair to pick up the master."
"Everyone should be more flexible!"
The two people she pointed to agreed immediately.
"Yes, Aunt Cui."
It was a rare sunny day before going out today. Zhen Huan remembered Wen Shichu's advice to exercise more, so she did not take the sedan chair.
Who would have thought that while walking peacefully, he would run into the unreasonable Concubine Qi.
If anything happened to Zhen Huan, all her years of waiting would be in vain.
Cui Jinxi was so anxious that she and another palace maid carried her master back.
The group walked so fast that they almost caught up with Concubine Qi who had set out earlier.
When Guarjia Wen Yuan saw this, she knew that Zhen Huan really had a stomachache.
"Avon, let's take another route. Don't let that vixen get on with you."
"Yes, master."
It was not the first time that her master could not control his mouth. Avon was afraid that she would take the wrong path, so she pulled her into a small path in the imperial garden.
Zhen Huan watched Concubine Qi and her men flee in panic, and a fierce light flashed in her eyes.
The safety of the baby in her belly is more important now, so she had to be carried forward by Cui Jinxi.
The master was not feeling well, so the eunuch had no time to care about the rule that he was not allowed to run in the palace.
He hurried all the way to the Imperial Hospital and went straight to the room where Wen Shichu was as soon as he entered.
The young eunuch was impatient and immediately grabbed the man.
"Doctor Wen, Concubine Zhen is feeling unwell. Please come and see her as soon as possible!"
When Wen Shichu heard that his sweetheart was in trouble, he stood up suddenly and knocked over the teacup beside him.
But he didn't care about the flowing tea now, and grabbed the medicine box beside him.
"Father-in-law, let's go."
"Could you please explain in detail why Concubine Zhen suddenly became unwell?"
The news that the emperor invited all the masters, princes and princesses in the harem to watch a play has spread throughout the palace. Wen Shichu is worried that the emperor may have noticed something.
The young eunuch paused and replied in a low voice.
"Doctor Wen, the queen suddenly felt unwell on the way back to the palace. Please go and see her as soon as possible."
Aunt Cui had repeatedly warned us not to leak anything related to Zhongcui Palace, otherwise...
When the young eunuch thought of Cui Jinxi's cold eyes at that time, he obediently led Wen Shichu on the way.
When Wen Shichu saw this, he also lowered his head and hurried on his way.
About half a minute later, Wen Shichu hurried into Zhen Huan's bedroom. He saw her pale face and furrowed brows at a glance, and an ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart.
"I apologize for the inconsiderateness. I will take your Majesty's pulse right away."
Wen Shichu put down the medicine box, knelt beside the bed and stretched out his hand.
He was so anxious that he didn't even have time to take the handkerchief that separated them, and pressed it directly on Zhen Huan's delicate wrist.
Wen Shichu carefully felt the pulse beating under his hand, and his brows gradually furrowed.
After a moment, he took out the silver needle and tapped Zhen Huan's body a few times with skillful technique.
"Aunt Cui, does the kitchen have any nourishing food? If so, please serve a bowl to the queen."
Huan'er's health was worse than he had imagined. She had been taking supplements all the time, so she shouldn't be so weak, right?
Wen Shichu's face was solemn, and Cui Jinxi didn't dare to delay at all.
After eating a bowl of milk and bird's nest, Zhen Huan felt that the pain in her abdomen was much better.
She leaned on Cui Jinxi with a look of fear on her face and looked at Wen Shichu worriedly.
"Doctor Wen, is the dragon fetus in my belly okay?"
Wen Shichu did not reply immediately. He glanced behind him twice. Bai Zhi, who understood, walked towards the door of the bedroom in three or two steps.
Wen Shichu looked at Zhen Huan with a serious expression.
"Huan'er, there's something wrong with the fetus."
Cui Jinxi's heart sank when she heard this, and she asked nervously before Zhen Huan could.
"Doctor Wen, could you please elaborate?"
Zhen Huan and Wen Shichu both thought that Cui Jinxi was eager to protect her master, only Bai Zhi, who was guarding the door, glanced at Cui Jinxi meaningfully.
Wen Shichu sighed and explained in a low voice.
"One of the twins has a strong pulse, while the other is weak. The weaker one's pulse comes and goes. I'm afraid...it might be stillbirth."
The child with the weak pulse could not compete with the other one, so his final outcome was obvious.
He saw the despair on his beloved's face and hurriedly painted it again.
"Of course, this is just my superficial judgment and doesn't count. Huan'er, I'll prescribe you a warming and nourishing prescription. If it works, you..."
Zhen Huan interrupted with red eyes, "Brother Shichu, please protect Huan'er's child no matter what. Even if there is only one, please ensure that he is born safely!"
"Huan'er, don't worry. I will do my best. From now on, I will come to check your pulse every day and adjust the prescription at any time to ensure the safety of you and the child."
As soon as Wen Shichu left, Zhen Huan threw herself into Cui Jinxi's arms and cried bitterly.
"Jinxi, I've known Wen Shichu for many years and know his every move very well. He just lied. The child in my belly is destined... destined... to have no connection with me!"
"What do you think I should do? What should I do?"
Cui Jinxi gently patted Zhen Huan's back and comforted her in a low voice.
"Master, now that the matter is settled, we should think of a countermeasure."
"I dare to ask you to suppress your grief. The Emperor knows you are pregnant with twins, and any problem with either one would be considered a bad omen."
She gently wiped Zhen Huan's tears, "Doctor Wen is a skilled doctor. He is confident that he can help the seriously injured master stand up, and he will definitely be able to determine the gender of the child in your womb..."
The next day, after Wen Shichu took the patient's pulse, his face became solemn again.
"Huan'er, the one with the weak pulse not only hasn't gotten better, it seems..."
"Brother Shichu, just speak frankly. Huan'er can handle it."
After Zhen Huan finished speaking, tears began to fall again.
Jinxi was right, she needed to prepare early.
The tears of his beloved fell on Wen Shichu's heart, burning it like a knife.
"The child with the weak pulse is in worse condition than yesterday. Huan'er, if anything happens to the child, it will definitely endanger you."
"You are already advanced in pregnancy, so perhaps early delivery is possible."
"Huan'er, think about it carefully. If you decide to give birth early, I will prepare the pills to induce labor outside the palace."
Zhen Huan stood up and bowed solemnly to Wen Shichu.
"Thank you, Brother Shichu."
"Huan'er knows that you are an excellent doctor. Can you bring the two children in your womb, the boy and the girl?"
Wen Shichu looked at Zhen Huan deeply and said, "You are pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. The one with the weak pulse is a prince."
"Huan'er, for you and your unborn child, please make a decision as soon as possible."
Wen Shichu did not prescribe any more prescriptions this time.
After he left, Zhen Huan caressed her belly reluctantly without saying a word.
When Cui Jinxi saw Bai Zhi guarding outside the bedroom, she knelt down in front of Zhen Huan.
"My Lord, you are pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl. If the boy dies and the girl is born, not to mention what the Emperor and the high-ranking ladies in the harem will think, just the fact that Concubine Qi will keep insisting on it will be extremely detrimental to the unborn princess and the rest of the Zhen family."
