In the East Palace, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were holding their breath, waiting for the results of Doctor Lin's pulse diagnosis.
Finally, Doctor Lin stood up.
The Crown Princess couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? Has the Crown Prince's condition improved?"
Doctor Lin touched the sweat stain on his forehead with a guilty look, his face flushed, and said, "If I hadn't treated the prince for twenty years, I would now suspect that I had misdiagnosed his pulse."
"The prince is now very healthy. Not only is his hidden illness gone, but even his long-standing weakness and qi deficiency have completely healed. His pulse is strong and powerful, and his internal organs are full of vitality. He is even healthier than a normal young man."
The Crown Princess shed tears of excitement and hurried outside the palace to bring her son in.
"Doctor Lin, please check on Jinghui too."
The prince directly carried his son over and placed him on the couch.
The little fellow moved playfully. The prince held his little hand and said, "Let Imperial Physician Lin take a look. Only when Jinghui is fine can father and mother rest assured."
Xiao Jinghui seemed to understand and calmed down.
However, his round eyes stared at Doctor Lin, showing great curiosity.
Doctor Lin came over to take the pulse. Compared with the previous experience, Doctor Lin was not too surprised this time.
He quickly said, "The little prince's frailty is gone, his heartbeat is steady and strong, and he is very healthy."
The Crown Princess felt relieved and tears began to fall.
Seeing the Crown Princess crying, the Crown Prince took her into his arms, patted her back and comforted her, "Don't cry, Jinghui is fine, this is more important than anything else."
The Crown Princess nodded, but she couldn't stop crying. After all this time, today was the last time she truly felt her back straightened. No longer was she so timid, worried that others would use her child's weakness to blame her.
Doctor Lin was standing by, his mouth dry, and he wanted to ask what magic medicine the prince and the emperor's grandson had taken.
"This palace has never been ill, and the little prince has recovered. Do you understand?"
As the Crown Prince's dignified voice fell, Doctor Lin knew his chances were over, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed. But he nodded and said, "It's always been like this. The Imperial Hospital has never missed a pulse case. Your Highness, rest assured."
The prince nodded slightly and said, "I will have someone send some gifts to your residence later. Thank you for your hard work over the years."
Doctor Lin quickly said that he didn't dare, but the prince asked him to leave, so he had to go back first.
Who knew that he was stopped by Zhou Dahai as soon as he left the Eastern Palace and taken to the Qinzheng Palace.
Shortly after they left, a young eunuch watched their backs and sneaked into Tan Liangyuan's palace.
"I saw clearly that it was Doctor Lin. Chief Eunuch Zhou even took him to the Emperor's palace."
Tan Liangyuan suddenly stood up from the soft chair, eyes full of surprise, and said, "The little prince must be sick again. I said he would not live long, but the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess protected him like the apple of their eye."
"Come on, take some cakes with you and we'll go to the Queen's Palace."
The young eunuch agreed promptly and soon followed Tan Liangyuan to Fengyi Palace.
The Empress was already extremely anxious when she heard that the Eastern Palace had summoned Imperial Physician Lin. She wanted to know the result, but she couldn't show it, which made her feel extremely distressed.
At this time, the palace maid came to report that Tan Liangyuan had arrived.
If it was before, the queen would be very happy, but now, the queen said directly with a cold face: "Let her in."
Tan Liangyuan came in with a lunch box and a smile on her face: "Mother, your daughter-in-law is here to see you."
The Queen sneered, "How dare a lowly concubine like you call yourself my daughter-in-law in front of me? What does that mean to the Crown Princess?"
Tan Liangyuan was stunned. She always called herself like this. What was the problem?
Could it be that the Queen already knew that the little grandson was sick and that’s why she was unhappy?
Who's the one who's so quick to gossip? If she knows, she'll be beaten to death.
Tan Liangyuan pinched her handkerchief and suppressed her unhappiness, saying, "Does the Queen Mother know that the little grandson is sick again?"
"I don't know what the Crown Princess is busy with all day. She can't even take good care of the little grandson. When I have a child in the future, I will definitely take good care of him and not let the Queen Mother worry."
"It's just that the prince hasn't been coming to my place often lately..."
The queen looked at her coldly, feeling very impatient.
She wants to find fault with the Crown Princess in both open and covert ways, and she also wants me to help her win her favor. Who does she think she is?
The Queen asked, "Who told you that the little grandson was ill? How dare you start a rumor?"
"Tan Liangyuan, you usually take advantage of my favor and ignore the Crown Princess. Now you're even trying to curse the Emperor's grandson to get sick. Do you think I dare not punish you?"
"Someone, take Tan Liangyuan out and give her twenty slaps."
Tan Liangyuan was so frightened that her face turned pale. She said in horror, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me this time."
"Empress..."
Chen Zongguan came in with the eunuchs and shouted, "No more noise!"
"take away!"
In this way, Tan Liangyuan failed to file a complaint and was slapped twenty times, losing all her face and dignity.
The Queen was anxious, and Fengyi Palace could not sit still, so she simply went to the road that Imperial Physician Lin had to take to return to the Imperial Hospital and waited there.
When he saw Doctor Lin coming, he quickly stopped him and said, "Doctor Lin, did the Emperor summon you to inquire about the Crown Prince's condition?"
"How is it? Are there any hidden dangers?"
Doctor Lin saw the worry in the Queen's eyes, looked around, and when he saw that no one was around, he said, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in good health and has no illness."
The queen understood as soon as she heard it, the prince was completely fine.
While feeling happy, he quickly asked, "What about the emperor's grandson?"
