"Bang--"
Zhao Xuanyi angrily smashed the porcelain cup in her hand and said through gritted teeth, "Is He Wushuang really pregnant?"
"Yes." The head maid of Qihuang Palace nodded. "It is said that Imperial Physician Zhang diagnosed that the imperial concubine is already one month pregnant."
"Heh..." Zhao Xuanyi laughed out loud in anger. "He Wushuang is so bold! She's so brave that she dared to reveal her pregnancy just one month ago. Is she really not afraid of what others might do to her belly?"
Not to mention others, it would be impossible for Yan Mingting alone to let He Wushuang give birth to this child easily.
Even if He Wushuang was lucky enough to protect her belly during the ten months of pregnancy, she might not be able to keep the baby after it was born.
"No rush, I can't panic." Zhao Xuanyi advised herself to stay calm, she couldn't lose her composure.
The person who is most displeased with He Wushuang's belly now is not her, but the almighty emperor.
No one can threaten the emperor's imperial power, not even his own son.
He is just a fetus in the womb, the emperor should not be so tolerant of him.
"Your Majesty, aren't we going to do anything?" asked the senior palace maid.
"Why not?" Zhao Xuanyi sneered, "Even if I can't make He Wushuang lose her child, I will make her suffer!"
Qihuang Palace was very angry towards Fengyi Palace. After the harem knew that the imperial concubine was pregnant, everyone was watching the attitude of Qihuang Palace.
Even Xiao Yuting, who had just entered the palace, was nervous.
"Will the Queen really do something to the Imperial Concubine's child?" Xiao Yuting asked curiously.
"Of course, the imperial concubine has a distinguished family background and is still favored by the queen. Of course, the queen will feel threatened." Someone next to Xiao Yuting said this to her, but of course there was no figure to be seen.
"Perhaps the Emperor doesn't want to see the Imperial Concubine give birth."
Xiao Yuting: "Why?"
"The imperial concubine's family is too powerful. The emperor will never allow the imperial concubine to have a child."
At this moment, Xiao Yuting felt sympathy for the imperial concubine.
Of course, she only felt sympathy for a moment, and then she put all her sympathy away.
The Imperial Concubine lives such a comfortable life, what is there to sympathize with?
…
Wushuang at Fengyi Palace didn't have any thoughts. She was only one month pregnant and it wouldn't affect any of her actions.
"Come on, I want to go out for a walk."
"Your Majesty..."
The palace is really not that big. What fun can there be to walk around?
It has been ten years, and I have already seen all the scenery in the palace.
But on this day, Wushuang actually walked towards the cold palace...
The Cold Palace was not a palace specially opened up and set up as the "Cold Palace". Instead, after a concubine fell out of favor, she was imprisoned here. Later, it was abandoned and called the "Cold Palace".
In fact, the original name of this palace was "Tamamo Palace".
Wushuang stood at the palace gate, looking at the tattered plaque hanging on the gate, which was no longer recognizable as its original state, with a calm expression.
Tamamo Palace...
This name is so familiar.
However, there is nothing in common between the Great Yan Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty, and this Yumo Palace has nothing in common with the Yumo Palace she knew before.
"Your Majesty, the cold palace is cold and gloomy. You can't stay here for long." Lin Xu, who knew that the imperial concubine was pregnant, automatically returned to Fengyi Palace from the female medical department and followed Wushuang to remind her.
Lin Xu's medical skills are now very good, and Wushuang even taught her everything he had learned.
Although Lin Xu’s medical skills are not the best in the entire Imperial Hospital, she is definitely the best female doctor in the Female Medical Bureau.
Wushuang shifted her gaze from the plaque of Tamamo Palace to Lin Xu. She had a very good impression of this diligent female doctor.
"Lin Xu..." Wushuang called out calmly, "Have you ever thought about leaving the palace?"
"My queen?" Lin Xu looked up at her master in surprise.
"Your medical skills are a bit wasted in the palace." Wushuang thought for a moment and said, "I want to release you from the palace. You can take in a disciple and pass on your medical skills."
"This way, there will be more female doctors in Dayan, and more people can be treated." Wushuang said lightly.
"Your Majesty..." Lin Xu found it hard not to be moved by the scene Wushuang described, but she kept her duties in mind. "Your Majesty, I am your servant and only want to serve you."
Wushuang looked at her with a smile and said, "You are a doctor. The goal of a doctor is to heal the wounded and save the dying."
"You must remember this principle. The rest is unimportant." Wushuang said calmly, "When my child turns one, I will send you out of the palace, right?"
Wushuang didn't mean that she didn't want to keep Lin Xu in the palace, but she felt that Lin Xu could better play her role if she left the palace.
She looked at Lin Xu and said, "I remember that you had a childhood sweetheart...a lover?"
When Lin Xu heard her master ask this, she smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking... I don't have any lover."
She did have a childhood sweetheart, and when she was following her master, the sweetheart also joined General He's army.
After so many years, she heard that the man had married and had children.
The ambiguous feelings she once had were never expressed, and the other party had already started a family, so why should she cause herself trouble?
Moreover, she didn't have very deep feelings for this childhood sweetheart at the beginning, otherwise why would she follow her master Wushuang into the palace?
She also knew that once she entered the palace, it would be very difficult to leave.
When she followed her master into the palace without hesitation, she never thought about what the outcome would be with her childhood sweetheart.
