As for the affairs of the palace, he rarely asked about them.
Hu Ximei thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, now that you mention it, there is something, but I'm not quite sure.
Concubine Jing has been vomiting frequently these past few days and can't eat anything. This seems to be a sign of pregnancy."
"Pregnant?"
Daji quickly asked, "Is this certain?"
She didn't think there was anything wrong.
If Cai Wenji could have children for the royal family, she would be overjoyed.
Because she never regarded Cai Wenji and others as her opponents.
Moreover, he was her own son and the eldest legitimate son, so why should she be jealous of the other concubines and wonder whether they would get pregnant?
Counting the days, more than two months have passed since Your Majesty went on the expedition.
The peak period of vomiting for a pregnant woman is around this time.
If we deduce this way, then what happened to Cai Wenji is probably almost certain.
"I haven't consulted a royal physician, so I'm not too sure." Hu Ximei said truthfully.
Daji couldn't wait to say, "Let's go to Wenhua Palace and call Zhu Danxi over."
Today, this old guy can be said to be a signboard of the Imperial Medical Service.
In Xianyang City, officials of the third rank and above would ask Zhu Danxi to treat their family members if they were unwell.
After a while.
Inside the Wenhua Hall.
Cai Wenji led all the eunuchs and maids in the palace to come and welcome Daji.
The latter held the former's arm affectionately and frowned, saying, "Sister, you seem to have lost a lot of weight recently."
The former responded: "To answer my sister, my appetite has not been very good recently. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Daji nodded and said, "I have called Zhu Danxi over and asked him to check my sister's pulse."
While saying this.
Zhu Danxi had already walked over quickly and bowed, saying, "Your humble servant greets the Empress and Consort Jing. May both of you live long lives."
Daji smiled and said, "Let's forget about the formalities. Concubine Jing hasn't been feeling well lately, so I asked you to come and see what's wrong."
Hearing this, Zhu Danxi nodded.
Seeing this, Cai Wenji couldn't refuse.
In fact, ever since she started vomiting some time ago, an idea had come to her mind.
However, the emperor was not in the palace, and she could bear it, so she did not ask the imperial physician to take her pulse.
Until recently, I was vomiting a lot.
She gradually realized that she might be pregnant.
So even the way we eat started to change.
I plan to find a day to ask the imperial physician to take a look.
After all, things like pregnancy testing also require finding an auspicious day for people in the palace.
It just so happened that the Queen invited Zhu Danxi over today, so we had no choice but to do it today.
This test shows that I am pregnant.
Daji held Cai Wenji's delicate hand and said softly, "Sister, you are a woman. You are pregnant with a dragon seed, such a big thing, why didn't you ask the imperial physician to take a look earlier?"
The latter smiled and said, "It's okay, sister. I had planned to ask the imperial physician to come over in the next two days, but I didn't expect that this would alarm you."
Daji shook her head and smiled, "Silly girl, you are His Majesty's concubine and my sister. The fact that you are pregnant with a dragon seed is a great joyous event for the palace.
I will now inform everyone in the palace of this good news. In addition, I have also sent someone to invite your father into the palace. I believe he is on his way now.
As for Prime Minister Cai... he's busy with state affairs and I'm afraid he won't be able to come for a while. As for Your Majesty, I'm thinking of letting Your Majesty know once the situation stabilizes. What do you think, my sister?
Cai Wenji sensed the sincerity conveyed by Daji, so she nodded and said, "I will follow your instructions."
As he spoke, he saw Cai Yong walking slowly towards him.
Seeing this, Daji smiled and said, "Let your father live in the palace for the time being.
It would be better for him to spend more time with you. I have important matters to attend to, so it is inconvenient for me to stay here with my sister.
I have already instructed Zhu Danxi and the Imperial Kitchen to prepare more food suitable for pregnant women."
Having said that, she slowly stood up.
Cai Wenji hurriedly wanted to see him off.
But he was politely declined.
Looking at Daji's departing back, Cai Wenji stroked her belly, and her expression changed slightly.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, she already knew that she was pregnant.
But at that time, Ying Yuan was no longer in the palace.
That's why she kept it hidden and didn't tell anyone.
I wanted to find a suitable time to tell my uncle.
Unexpectedly, Daji suddenly noticed that she was not feeling well.
Come to think of it, how did she know?
Even the harem of the Qin Dynasty was much more harmonious than the palaces of other countries.
But even so, Cai Wenji, who had been well-read since childhood, traveled around the world with her father, and had extraordinary experience and knowledge, was still reluctant to trust others too much.
Especially when Daji told her the connection between Shushan and Queen Zhenyi, as well as the purpose of the jade pendant.
Ministry of War.
Cai Jing was discussing with Cao Cao how to ensure that the local authorities could accurately implement the emperor's decrees.
The latter said: "Everything else is easy to say. After all, recruiting soldiers from all over the country is a consensus we have reached from the beginning.
However, Your Majesty has also requested that wealthy merchants from all regions donate money and grain. If we are not careful in this matter, it could lead to disaster."
His concerns are not without reason.
Today, Daqin is facing pressure from powerful enemies.
