Chapter 183 Pregnancy (4)

The moment Shen Miao laid eyes on the imperial physician, her heart skipped a beat. She carefully assessed him. The young physician, carrying his medical case, exchanged greetings with the Emperor and Empress before approaching Ren Wanyun. Ren Wanyun tried to block him, but the physician said, "Madam, please let go of Miss Shen so I can take her pulse." His voice was also very pleasant, bringing a sense of comfort to her heart.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, and with the Emperor and Empress watching from above, Ren Wanyun dared not resist no matter what she did. Shen Qing had already fainted from the pain. She stepped back and watched helplessly as the imperial physician placed two fingers on Shen Qing's wrist.

Just as Shen Miao was staring at the imperial physician in a trance, Feng Anning's teasing voice suddenly came from beside her. She said, "You're not also attracted to that imperial physician, are you? If you are attracted to him, then your taste is not bad."

Shen Miao was slightly startled and asked, “Do you know him?”

"Huh?" Feng An Ning asked in surprise. "This is the first time you've shown any interest in something like what I'm saying. Well, I'll be merciful and tell you this: this imperial physician is a new member of the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills are truly remarkable; he even cured Consort De's stubborn heart ailment. His Majesty values him highly and made an exception to allow him into the Imperial Hospital. He's now the youngest official there, and he's also very handsome, so many girls are attracted to him."

Shen Miao said: “You like it too?”

"How could I possibly like him?" Feng An Ning tilted her neck: "Although he is a skilled doctor and good-looking, he is at best an imperial physician. He has no family support and is alone. How can such a person be considered as a member of my family? Even you, you may like him, but if you really want to be worthy of him, then it's still a little short of it." Feng An Ning had been spoiled by her family since she was a child. She firmly believed that her husband was also a great man. She really didn't take a small imperial physician seriously.

"What's his name?" Shen Miao asked.

“You couldn’t possibly have fallen in love with him?” Feng An Ning glanced at Shen Miao suspiciously before saying, “His name is Gao Yang, but there’s no family with the surname Gao among the officials in Dingjing.” In other words, this Gao Yang definitely wasn’t from a prominent family.

Shen Miao stared at the young imperial physician, even ignoring Shen Qing and Ren Wanyun. Her heart was agitated because she found that Gao Yang gave her a familiar feeling, as if she had seen him somewhere before. However, in her previous life at the Imperial Hospital, she had never seen a person like Gao Yang.

If it wasn't in the Imperial Hospital, then where else could I have seen him?

While thinking, Gao Yang had finished taking the pulse. When he turned around, he met Shen Miao's scrutinizing gaze. He was also slightly startled, but quickly came to his senses and bowed to Ren Wanyun.

"Doctor Gao," the Queen asked, "Has Miss Shen been poisoned?"

Gao Yang glanced at the unconscious Shen Qing, then at the pale Ren Wanyun, and said with a cupped hand, "To answer your Majesty, Miss Shen was not poisoned. She just drank Qinghe tea." After a pause, he continued, "There was no poison in the Qinghe tea Miss Shen drank, and Miss Shen was not poisoned."

"Oh?" Emperor Wenhui looked at Shen Qing: "Since he wasn't poisoned, how could this happen?"

"Your Majesty," Gao Yang sighed, "Qinghe Tea is cold in nature. It's fine for ordinary people to drink, but it can cause miscarriage if consumed by pregnant women... Miss Shen is pregnant."

Miss Shen is pregnant.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar around them. Shen Gui opened his mouth, his face flushing purple. He suddenly looked at Ren Wanyun, who was just slumped to the ground in a daze.

"Okay!" It was the wife of the Wei family who spoke. She stood up suddenly, not caring where she was, and pointed at Ren Wanyun and cursed: "You are engaged to my Wei family, but you actually want me to marry a slut and raise someone else's son. Ren Wanyun, do you still have any shame?"
