The palace maids hurriedly carried her to the bed, just as Physician Li arrived.
He knelt beside the bed, covered Princess Chang'an's hands with a silk cloth, felt her pulse with his fingertips, held his breath, and closed his eyes.
After a while.
He seemed to have been startled by something.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
Physician Li seemed somewhat disbelieving, scrutinizing Princess Chang'an for a long while.
His fingertips rested on her wrist, which was covered with silk.
This time, he was certain of what he was thinking, and large beads of sweat slid down Physician Li's forehead.
He inserted a needle into Princess Chang'an's tiger's mouth and then put a pill into her mouth.
Physician Li's heart pounded like thunder. He walked up to Emperor Yuanwu and kowtowed deeply to him.
"Your Majesty, this old minister just gave Princess Chang'an an acupuncture treatment, and she will wake up soon."
"Your Majesty, please forgive my lack of medical skills. Princess Chang'an's condition is complicated. Could you please ask other physicians from the Imperial Hospital to come and treat her together?"
Physician Li cried out to heaven in despair.
Heavens above!
What terrible things did he do in his past life?
I've unexpectedly ended up working today.
Has Princess Chang'an gone mad?
Pregnancy before marriage.
Let alone in the palace.
Even in ordinary families, if an unmarried woman had a child, it would be considered a disgraceful and shameful act, and the family elders would use private laws to beat her to death or even burn her alive.
Not to mention the royal family.
How could the royal family tolerate such a disgraceful act?
Why did he have to find out about such a shameful thing?
No matter how skilled his medical skills are.
Now, even the King of Hell couldn't save him.
What terrible things did he do in his past life?
How will God punish him?
Physician Li was utterly heartbroken.
He cursed Princess Chang'an countless times in his heart.
I just hope this matter won't implicate his family.
He was prepared to die.
Emperor Yuanwu was not entirely certain about Mu Qianqian's feelings.
A princess who lived deep within the palace.
Unmarried and pregnant!?
There has never been such a precedent in any dynasty.
But then he saw the pale face of Physician Li.
Emperor Yuanwu had a vague sense of certainty in his heart.
He dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs from the imperial study.
"Imperial Physician Li, now that it's just the two of us, feel free to speak your mind," Emperor Yuanwu said calmly.
Mu Qianqian: ? ? ?
【Okay, okay!】
I am not human!
Emperor Yuanwu:...
What time is it now?
Stop fooling around!
Imperial Physician Li knelt on the ground, head bowed, wiping the sweat from his brow with his sleeve. His voice trembled slightly as he said, “Your Majesty, Princess Chang’an…is… pregnant. Forgive my lack of medical skill, but it is possible that my diagnosis is incorrect. I implore Your Majesty to have other imperial physicians confirm it again.”
After Physician Li finished speaking, he couldn't help but look up and glance at the Emperor.
Contrary to his expectations, Emperor Yuanwu did not erupt in fury or display overwhelming imperial power. Instead, his reaction was quite calm.
It was as if they already knew about this, and they weren't surprised at all.
Physician Li pondered for a while.
Although he knew that he had no way out.
But it is a doctor's duty.
He learned medicine from his grandfather from a young age, and he only remembered one sentence: "Heal the wounded and save lives, accumulate good deeds and do good deeds."
No matter who it is.
He will do his best to treat them.
As a doctor, how could he possibly watch a patient die in front of him?
Physician Li steeled his resolve and kowtowed to Emperor Yuanwu once more.
"Your Majesty, the princess has been frightened and has just fallen, so she is already showing signs of bleeding and miscarriage."
