Shen Yuerong strode forward and snatched the safflower pill, looking at Madam Lin in front of her with a serious expression.
"You can't take safflower pills in your current condition."
Madam Lin covered her abdomen, her face pale and weak as she looked at Shen Yuerong, with some displeasure in her tone.
"Princess, what are you doing? This is the medicine that the Lotus Clinic prescribed for me. It cost me three thousand taels. Why can't I take it?"
Shen Yuerong glanced at the pill, her eyes were extremely cold.
"If you take the pill, you will have a miscarriage today."
After these words came out, Madam Lin was stunned and looked at Shen Yuerong in disbelief.
"How could I be pregnant? If I were pregnant, why would Lotus Clinic prescribe Red Flower Pills for me?"
Her words were full of doubt, and Shen Yuerong stretched out her hand and said lightly.
"Give me your hand."
Seeing Shen Yuerong like this, the other party actually chose to believe her and handed over his hand.
Shen Yuerong placed her hand on her pulse, lowered her eyes, and spoke in a serious manner.
"Congratulations, Madam Lin, on your pregnancy. When did you get the safflower pills? Have you ever taken them?"
Although what Shen Yuerong said was a little unbelievable, Madam Lin still answered blankly.
"I didn't take it this morning. I went to the Lotus Clinic to check my pulse a few days ago, and Madam Hua prescribed it for me."
Shen Yuerong breathed a sigh of relief, and then said lightly: “Madam is offended.”
She pressed a few acupuncture points on Mrs. Lin's body with her slender fingertips, and then gave instructions to Qinghua beside her.
"Prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
Shen Yuerong wrote out a prescription for pregnancy maintenance and handed it to Mrs. Lin.
"Whether Mrs. Lin is willing to believe me or not, you are pregnant now and cannot take safflower pills."
"If you don't believe it, Madam, you can go to another clinic for examination."
Shen Yuerong said this with conviction, and Mrs. Lin stared at her closely, and couldn't help but believe it a little.
After all, she had been married for a year and had not yet gotten pregnant, which caused quite a bit of resentment in her family.
If she is really pregnant as the princess said, she should not take safflower pills easily.
Mrs. Lin was helped to stand up by her maid. She looked much better than before and it was obvious that she was not in as much pain.
She took the prescription and bowed to Shen Yuerong to express her gratitude.
"Thank you for your advice, Princess. I'll take my leave now. I need to go to the clinic. Please forgive me."
Shen Yuerong nodded and smiled, then sent someone to see Madam Lin off.
When she turned her head, Concubine Xi looked at her with sparkling eyes and a teasing smile.
"My daughter-in-law is amazing. Could you please give me some beauty and skin care prescriptions?"
The noble ladies nearby echoed: "I heard that the princess opened a clinic. If you have any beauty and beauty prescriptions, please bring them out and share them with us."
Speaking of this, Concubine Xi suddenly remembered the rouge that Shen Yuerong had made for her before, and took it out from her sleeve very preciously.
"I'll show you something good."
She just opened the lid of her rouge, and the rich floral fragrance filled the air. Butterflies not far away flapped their wings and flew around.
The noble ladies covered their lips and exclaimed.
"Oh my god, what is going on? It's so magical."
When Concubine Xi heard these exclamations, her smile became even more prominent. She smeared some rouge on the back of her hand and slowly stretched out her hand.
The butterfly immediately landed on the back of the hand. The surrounding exclamations became louder and louder, and all attention was focused here.
Both young ladies and unmarried girls were surprised and delighted when they saw this scene, and discussed it with laughter.
Shen Yuerong stood at one side and looked at Concubine Xi in front of her, with a faint smile on her lips.
The banquet was a success, and Concubine Xi completely stole the limelight. She also changed her attitude towards Shen Yuerong and called her a good daughter-in-law every time she saw her.
Even when Chi Mu appeared, she no longer cared as much as before, and her heart and eyes were filled with only Shen Yuerong.
In front of all the noble ladies, Concubine Xi personally gave Shen Yuerong the seven-tailed phoenix crown that the late emperor had given her.
You should know that the current empress dowager wears a nine-tailed phoenix crown, and Concubine Xi wears a seven-tailed phoenix crown, which symbolizes the supreme honor.
The fact that she gave it to Shen Yuerong at this moment meant that she completely accepted Shen Yuerong.
Those who originally wanted to watch the fun could only be respectful to Shen Yuerong and dared not look down on her in the slightest.
The banquet was completely over. After seeing off the guests, Shen Yuerong came to the courtyard where Sheng Qinglan was.
Before I opened the door, I could hear the sound of piano playing from inside. The tune was melodious and majestic, yet also had a unique softness that enveloped my whole body and made me immersed in it.
Shen Yuerong pushed open the door and saw Sheng Qinglan sitting under a tree playing the piano. Although she was bloated and had fat fingers, she was very flexible and played beautiful music.
When the song ended, Sheng Qinglan stopped, turned to look at Shen Yuerong, stood up and bowed.
"Greetings, Princess. I felt relaxed after a good sleep, so I played a song for her last time. I hope you can forgive me."
Shen Yuerong walked up slowly to her and helped her up, then spoke with a slight smile.
"How can I blame you? It's all thanks to you that I can hear such a beautiful tune. A person as talented as you should be shown to everyone."
After hearing this, Sheng Qinglan lowered his eyes, exuding an air of loss and disappointment.
"I also want to, but life is hard for women in this world. We must follow the rules, get married and have children. Otherwise, we will be labeled as unfilial and rebellious, and bring trouble to the family."
"My family has raised me to this point, how can I watch them get into trouble because of me?"
When Shen Yuerong heard Sheng Qinglan's words, she knew that when she was young, she must have experienced something as thunderous and stormy as this, which completely concealed her talent and made her only the person behind the prime minister.
On the other side, Wanjun stood up for Sheng Qinglan.
"Princess, you don't know that my wife became famous at a young age. She sang a stunning song and once performed it at a palace banquet. She was praised by the late emperor and was sought after by many handsome men."
"Originally my daughter had planned to remain single for life, but she was entangled by that bastard Prime Minister, who spread rumors everywhere, saying that she was engaged to my daughter. My family was afraid of being embarrassed, so she had to marry him. We supported her all the way to a successful career, but now she has suffered the consequences."
When Shen Yuerong heard these words, she couldn't help but feel regretful.
With a talent like Sheng Qinglan, there is no need for her to marry anyone as a foil.
But she also knew that the world was difficult and that women seemed destined to get married and be trapped in a small world, where even their titles would become Mrs. So-and-so.
If you meet someone with a bad heart, your life will be ruined.
Just like Sheng Qinglan in front of him, he was made fat and suffered the infamy for nothing.
For a moment, Shen Yuerong didn't know whether to feel sympathy or sadness.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Qinglan was more open-minded than Shen Yuerong. She folded her hands in front of her and smiled.
"Princess, don't worry about me. I'm just a shell anyway."
"If I can survive, I will do my best to live. If I can't, I will die gloriously."
When Shen Yuerong heard this, her expression darkened.
"Don't worry, I will definitely save you and let you stand in front of everyone with dignity, so that they will be amazed and regretful. How about that?"
Sheng Qinglan smiled and nodded with tears in her eyes.
