Yu Jingchen gently helped her up: "Does your stomach hurt?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
Nan Zhiyun nodded.
Yu Jingchen looked at the palace servants and said, "Go and fetch the imperial physician," but Nan Zhiyun stopped him.
“No need, Your Majesty…” Nan Zhiyun called out.
Yu Jingchen looked at her, somewhat puzzled: "Why aren't you using it? Don't you know how much pain you're in?"
"Your Majesty, really, it's not necessary... I'll be fine soon, and I've had the medicine prescribed before, so it's nothing..." Nan Zhiyun's face turned pale with pain.
However, upon hearing this, Yu Jingchen's brows furrowed.
"Before? You've been in this pain before?" Clearly, Yu Jingchen didn't know why Nan Zhiyun was in so much pain.
"How long has this been going on? What's the cause? Is it serious? What did the imperial physician say? Never mind, let's go and ask the imperial physician to come again." After asking a few questions, Yu Jingchen still felt it was more appropriate to have the imperial physician come again.
Nan Zhiyun wanted to stop it, but she was powerless to do so, and another wave of pain came from her abdomen.
"Your Majesty, could you please ask Qianxia to come in for a moment?" Nan Zhiyun felt a little embarrassed; she was too shy to ask such a question directly.
Yu Jingchen glanced at Xinglai, who immediately understood his meaning and then went out to call Qianxia in.
Qianxia knew that Nan Zhiyun had this problem, and when she learned that Nan Zhiyun was pregnant today, she had already instructed her servants to prepare the medicine. Now, she had the medicine brought up directly.
"I want to change my clothes first. You can leave the medicine here for now, and I'll drink it later," Nan Zhiyun said.
Qianxia knew this from Nan Zhiyun's suggestion to change clothes first, but...
"Your Majesty, I would like to change my clothes first..." Nan Zhiyun said to Yu Jingchen.
"How can you change clothes like this? You've only sweated a little. Drink your medicine first." Yu Jingchen handed over the medicine.
Nan Zhiyun had no choice but to drink it first, but she was in so much pain that she couldn't hold the medicine steady, so Yu Jingchen had to hold it and feed it to her himself.
After Nan Zhiyun finished drinking her medicine, Yu Jingchen put down the bowl and asked, "Do you need to go to sleep?"
"No need... Your Majesty, I wish to change my clothes. Could you please excuse me for a moment?" Nan Zhiyun didn't know where she got the courage to actually ask Yu Jingchen to leave.
Perhaps she felt that losing face was more terrifying than making Yu Jingchen avoid it? After all... Nan Zhiyun felt that it wouldn't be good if Yu Jingchen saw it, and... for most people, this kind of thing was considered unclean and unlucky.
She was wearing a white nightgown, and it's likely that she also had one on her bed.
Yu Jingchen wasn't unwilling to avoid the situation, but he felt that Nan Zhiyun was acting strangely, which was why he didn't just walk away.
"What exactly happened?" Yu Jingchen frowned.
“Your Majesty, Consort Jieyu experiences severe pain every time she gets her blood drawn, and she may be having some difficulty getting around right now. Therefore, to avoid offending Your Majesty, I hope Your Majesty can temporarily excuse her,” Qianxia said. She was afraid that Yu Jingchen would not leave, so she told him the truth. Judging from her current state, Qianxia felt that Yu Jingchen should not blame her.
Sure enough, after Qianxia finished speaking, Yu Jingchen immediately understood. He looked at Nan Zhiyun with a somewhat speechless expression: "What's so hard about saying this? Why are you so worried? Just say it next time."
Nan Zhiyun felt a little embarrassed by what was said, and... it was really awkward, but Yu Jingchen wasn't angry at all?
