Now that the matter was settled, Xuanyuan Peng looked at Zong Jiu and instructed, "Go and invite all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital over."
"yes."
Zong Jiu responded and went to fetch someone.
Xuan Yuanzhan helped Su Xuening sit down with some concern, as if silently asking her a question.
Previously, there were silver needles in her meridians, which is why Hang Yuqing couldn't determine her gestational age. But now that the silver needles have been removed, her pulse should have returned to normal. Wouldn't it be much easier for Hang Yuqing to determine her gestational age then?
Or perhaps she has other methods.
Su Xuening knew what Xuan Yuanzhan was worried about, so she gently squeezed his hand to comfort him silently.
Since she was willing to let the imperial physician examine her pulse, she must have been absolutely certain of her abilities.
To be precise, it should be said that she trusted her mother.
Su Xuening glanced at Bai Shi again, and Bai Shi gave Su Xuening a reassuring look, which made Su Xuening feel more confident.
Su Huiyan and Su Feiling exchanged a glance, and under Su Feiling's very certain gaze, Su Huiyan revealed an expression of watching a good show.
Su Xuening sat opposite them, taking in their expressions, her eyes filled with mockery.
The best is yet to come; she'll see how they put on this grand show!
Su Muyao remained kneeling beside Zhong's corpse. She glanced coldly at Su Xuening's belly, then silently looked at Xuan Yuanzhan, her eyes filled with an intense and unyielding love.
If the child in Su Xuening's belly really isn't his, then maybe he'll finally look at her properly.
Soon, Zong Jiu arrived with the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy.
Since Xuanyuan Peng did not specify which imperial physician he wanted to see, Zong Jiu brought all the imperial physicians on duty at the Imperial Hospital that day, totaling about twenty or thirty people.
"Your Majesty, the person has been brought."
Zong Jiu stepped forward and reported.
Hang Yuqing then led the imperial physicians in bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, we pay our respects."
Xuanyuan Peng simply raised his hand and said, "Go and check the Holy Princess's pulse to ensure her safety."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the imperial physicians instantly turned strange.
Why did the Emperor go to such lengths to summon so many imperial physicians? Was it so that they could check the pulse of the Holy Princess?
Even if you were to check someone's pulse, there are just too many people here!
The intelligent imperial physician sensed that something was amiss.
The Emperor summoned so many imperial physicians; it was definitely not just to check the Holy Princess's pulse.
Moreover, judging from the situation, with Consort Su on one side and the Holy King's Dowager Consort on the other, something big must be going on.
However, since it was the emperor's order, they dared not disobey.
"Do all the imperial physicians have to take your pulse?" Hang Yuqing asked uncertainly.
Xuanyuan Peng glanced at the large group of imperial physicians and felt a headache coming on: "Since you're here, let's all have a go."
Anyway, taking her pulse while she's sitting down won't tire her out.
Moreover, having all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital take his pulse was also to prevent any tampering by either side.
With so many imperial physicians taking the pulse, the results would undoubtedly be the most accurate.
"Yes." Hang Yuqing finally realized that today's pulse examination was no simple matter. He responded and took the lead in taking Su Xuening's pulse.
"Wait a minute." Before Hang Yuqing could even begin to examine Su Huiyan's pulse, something suddenly happened.
Hang Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Su Huiyan with a puzzled expression.
Everyone turned to look at Su Huiyan.
Xuanyuan Peng asked impatiently, "What's wrong with you now?"
Su Huiyan frowned and glanced at Hang Yuqing: "I heard that Hang Yuqing stayed at the Holy King's Mansion for a period of time before. It was Hang Yuqing who took Su Xuening's pulse. Hang Yuqing didn't find anything strange before. Either his medical skills are not good, or he was bribed by Bai Fuya and Su Xuening. Hang Yuqing doesn't need to take the pulse today."
Moreover, Hang Yuqing was the head of the Imperial Medical Academy, and his pulse diagnosis results had a direct impact on all the imperial physicians who followed him.
If Hang Yuqing is indeed bribed by Bai Fuya and Su Xuening, and all the junior imperial physicians follow suit and spread rumors, wouldn't that allow Su Xuening and the others to get away with it?
...Su Huiyan's words left everyone present speechless.
Everyone knows that Hang Yuqing is the head of the academy appointed by Xuanyuan Peng. To be more specific, Hang Yuqing is Xuanyuan Peng's man. How could he possibly be bought off by the Bai family and Su Xuening?
Su Huiyan's words successfully made Xuan Yuanpeng's face darken.
Hang Yuqing immediately bowed to Xuan Yuanpeng: "Your Majesty, I am innocent. I do not know what kind of results Consort Su wanted me to find out, but I really have not been bribed by the Holy King's Dowager Consort and the Holy King's Consort. As for my medical skills... perhaps I really should improve my medical skills."
In any case, he would admit that his medical skills were inadequate, but he could not admit that he had been bribed by the Holy King's Dowager and the Holy King's Consort.
However, judging from Consort Su's demeanor today, she seems to be at odds with the Holy Prince's Dowager and the Holy Prince's Consort again. What could be the matter that requires so many imperial physicians to examine the Holy Prince's Consort's pulse?
Just now, Consort Su said that his medical skills were problematic, and that he had been bribed by the Holy Princess and the Holy Princess. Could it be that there is something wrong with the child in the Holy Princess's womb?
Hang Yuqing was his man, so how could Xuanyuan Peng not understand Hang Yuqing's loyalty? He waved his hand at him and said, "Alright, let the other imperial physicians take the Holy Princess's pulse first, and you can take it last."
Hang Yuqing was his most trusted imperial physician, and also the most skilled among all the imperial physicians. Hang Yuqing was definitely going to take the stage, but since Su Huiyan had questions, Hang Yuqing could be the last to go on stage.
Su Huiyan had no objection to Xuan Yuanpeng's arrangement.
"Yes," Hang Yuqing replied and stood to the side.
Other imperial physicians began to step forward to take Su Xuening's pulse.
After the first imperial physician finished taking his pulse, Xuanyuan Peng asked, "How is it?"
The first imperial physician to take the pulse immediately bowed to Xuanyuan Peng and said, "The Holy Princess Consort's health is fine, and the young prince is very healthy."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Peng was instantly delighted.
He really is a little prince!
Su Huiyan's face darkened; she hadn't expected that Su Xuening was also carrying a son.
No, the child she's carrying definitely isn't Xuanyuan Zhan's.
Immediately, Su Huiyan said unhappily, "Who asked you that? The Emperor meant the month of pregnancy in the Holy Princess's belly. How many months pregnant is the Holy Princess?"
All the imperial physicians were stunned when Su Huiyan said this.
The Emperor summoned them to examine the pulse for this very reason. Could it be that there's something wrong with the child in the Holy Princess's womb?
For a moment, all the imperial physicians looked at Su Xuening with strange eyes.
Even Hang Yuqing looked at Su Xuening.
Is there really something wrong with the baby in the Holy Princess's belly?
Hang Yuqing frowned when he recalled the chaotic pulse he had felt when he took Su Xuening's pulse.
At that time, the Holy Princess's pulse was really erratic. He had never been able to find out the exact month of her pregnancy. So, was there really a problem with the month of the child in the Holy Princess's womb?
