The two imperial physicians glanced at Su Jing, completely disregarding her.
His body remained completely still.
Su Jing looked embarrassed.
The deputy head of the hospital said, "The Eighth Princess's child died three hours ago. Although Star Dew is a sacred medicine, it is of no use at all."
Zhao Zhiyan was taken aback: "What did you say?"
The deputy chief physician pointed to the bloodstains on the bed: "The blood has long since dried. This old minister does not know why this Doctor Li is so certain that Star Dew can bring the dead back to life."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Li trembled like a leaf: "I...I...it's my medical skills that are inadequate."
"How could someone with such poor medical skills know the effects of Star Dew? If you're not good at medicine, shouldn't you at least know about miscarriages in women?" The vice president angrily cursed, "You quack doctor, you're practically killing people."
Dr. Li's body went limp and he knelt on the ground.
"Your Highness, perhaps Doctor Li couldn't bear to hurt the Princess, so he took a chance and tried. After all, the child was perfectly fine in the Princess's womb yesterday," Su Jing explained, trembling.
The deputy head of the hospital scoffed: "Judging from the Eighth Princess's pulse, the fetus has been weak for quite some time. If she rests well these next few days, she might be able to save it."
Upon hearing this, Su Jing's mind went blank.
This imperial physician really didn't give me any face; he exposed the lie right away.
Zhao Zhiyan's eyes flashed with coldness.
The sleeve suddenly twitched slightly, a very small movement that Zhao Zhiyan would never mistake. He turned his head to look at the person sleeping soundly on the bed.
Her face grew paler and paler.
His brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Zhao Zhiyan suddenly felt a lump in his throat, took a deep breath and said to the deputy head of the hospital, "Thank you for your help, two imperial physicians."
Ask someone to see the guest out.
The two imperial physicians then withdrew.
He said nothing, but glanced at the Star Dew on the table, which was even more dazzling. He ordered it to be sent back to the Guangjia Prince's Mansion. His gaze then fell on Doctor Li, and his chilling aura made Doctor Li instantly go limp. He stammered, "Your Highness."
"Child!" Xu Lingqing suddenly opened her eyes, her small face pale and frail, large tears streaming down her cheeks. She stared blankly at Zhao Zhiyan: "I must have been dreaming just now, right, Your Highness? My child is still here, isn't he?"
Looking into Xu Lingqing's sparkling eyes, Zhao Zhiyan pursed his lips and said, "You should rest and recuperate first. You will have children in the future."
"Your Highness?" Xu Lingqing cried her heart out, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on marrying you, I wouldn't have been so upset that I threatened to miscarry. I care about you too much, my child. I'm so sorry..."
Xu Lingqing wept uncontrollably, looking pitifully at Zhao Zhiyan: "And the villagers of Xingshan Village, why are you making things difficult for me? Who is behind this?"
In Xu Lingqing's view, the villagers of Xingshan Village today are deliberately picking a fight and trying to provoke her, and there must be someone behind them instigating it.
Zhao Zhiyan suppressed his anger: "You should focus on getting better first, and don't overthink it."
He brushed Xu Lingqing's hand away and stood up: "Someone, serve the Princess well."
A single glance was enough to have someone gag Doctor Li and drag him out.
No matter how Xu Lingqing called after him, he didn't turn around.
His steps were firm, and he was filled with anger.
Xu Lingqing panicked and grabbed Su Jing's hand: "What, what should we do? The prince must be angry."
She had never seen Zhao Zhiyan abandon her and leave.
Su Jing comforted her, "Your Highness, please don't worry. Doctor Li knows what he should and shouldn't say. You only wanted medicine and didn't frame Princess Guangjia. Considering how much you've lost your child, the Prince will certainly not have the heart to punish you."
Xu Lingqing's emotions gradually stabilized, and she narrowed her eyes: "Song Yue, I underestimated you."
The unexpected administration of medication caught her off guard and disrupted her entire plan.
Even if they wanted to frame Song Yue, it wouldn't work anymore.
