"My Lady, how are you?"
As soon as Su Ying came out of the space, she heard Zhou Qing's anxious voice.
"I'm fine. I was a little sleepy and almost fell asleep."
"My lady, the water should be almost cold. You should get up first."
Su Ying responded, took a walk in the water, changed into clean clothes and went out.
Zhou Qing was relieved when she saw that Su Ying was fine. "If your Majesty feels unwell, please tell me immediately."
Su Ying found her nervous look a little funny, "Don't worry, I know my own body well."
Zhou Qing was not at ease. She brought some snacks to Su Ying and said, "Your Majesty, please have some snacks. If you feel tired sitting there, I will accompany you to walk in the yard."
Su Ying took a piece of mung bean cake, which was made by a new dim sum chef from the south who came to the imperial kitchen. Different from the cakes in the capital, the minty flavor of this mung bean cake spread instantly between your lips and teeth when you took a bite.
After she got pregnant, she didn’t like any other snacks and only liked this.
After eating two pieces, Su Ying found a book and leaned on the soft pillow to read.
As it got darker, footsteps were heard outside.
Su Ying raised her eyes and saw Xiao Jin walking in.
The moment their eyes met, Xiao Jin's brows softened. He walked up to her and held her hand. "Why did you only eat two pieces of mung bean cake today? Don't you have an appetite?"
Su Ying was not surprised that Xiao Jin knew her every move. He must have been scared these days.
"I just had my meal and I'm still full."
Xiao Jin pinched her palm and felt that she had lost some weight.
"Zhou Qing, go and see if dinner is ready?"
Zhou Qing responded and retreated outside the hall.
Xiao Jin knew that Su Ying had something to say to him, so he signaled Zhang Shuming with his eyes to go out as well, and considerately closed the door of the hall.
Su Ying looked at Xiao Jin and said slowly: "Tell me the truth, what did the imperial physician tell you?"
Xiao Jin frowned slightly, "Yingying, don't let your imagination run wild..."
Su Ying shook her head and interrupted him, "Xiao Jin, you know my medical skills are not bad, so I want to hear what those imperial doctors have to say."
Xiao Jin's breath softened. "The doctor said that if the fetus in the mansion continues to grow, it will affect your body and even take your life."
"So you want me to take the baby away to cure the disease."
Xiao Jin nodded.
“It hasn’t reached that point yet.”
However, Xiao Jin felt that Su Ying said this because she couldn't bear to leave her child.
"Yingying, we have Ling'er and the others, and that's enough for us. If you really want to have another child, it won't be too late for us to have another child after you recover from your illness."
Su Ying shook her head and said, "I know about this." After examination, she found that she had a tumor in her stomach.
It is impossible to say that this tumor has no risks. As the child grows, the expansion of the uterus will squeeze the tumor. If the squeezing is too severe and the tumor ruptures, she will be in trouble.
But judging from the current growth of the fetus, if the weight of the fetus and the growth rate of the tumor can be controlled, then the problem will not be serious and the tumor can be removed directly through surgery after the child is born.
"Yingying!"
Xiao Jin didn't want Su Ying to take any risk.
"This time, you'll just listen to me, okay?"
"Xiao Jin, you know I seldom do things without confidence, and I will never joke with my own life. The imperial doctors don't dare to take risks, because if something happens to me, they will also be in trouble, so they said the situation was more serious, but I know my own body, you have to believe me, I am definitely not willful or stubborn, I really made this decision after careful consideration and comprehensive evaluation!"
Xiao Jin pursed his lips, obviously disagreeing with Su Ying's decision.
"Su Ying, I respected your decision in the past, but this time, even if the risk is not as big as I know, as you said, I still hope that you will take the lead. Just this time, just this time you listen to me, okay?"
Su Ying let out a breath softly. She wanted to say no firmly, but the sadness and worry in Xiao Jin's eyes made her swallow back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
She wrapped her arms around his waist, put her face against his belly and whispered, "I want to listen to you, but did the doctor tell you that I would take the risk even if it means getting rid of the baby?"
After he finished speaking, Su Ying clearly felt Xiao Jin's body stiffen.
"The baby is already over four months old, and the belly is showing. Not to mention that you are going to kill him yourself, how can this fetus come out of your body easily? If my body is too weak during the process of removing the baby, do you think I can recover?"
"If you think I am lying, you can go ask those doctors if there is no risk in having the baby removed. If they dare to say no, then I will listen to you."
"real?"
"Well, can I still lie to you about such a big thing?"
Seeing that Su Ying didn't refuse to give in, Xiao Jin heaved a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'll ask the doctor."
The next morning, after discussing important state affairs with the ministers, Xiao Jin summoned all the respected doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to the imperial study.
Xiao Jin told the imperial physician everything Su Ying had said to him last night.
"Tell me, is it safer to keep the child or to remove it?"
The doctors looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally the judge stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, both methods have risks. The risk of keeping the child is that we don't know if the disease will flare up before the Madam gives birth. If we remove the child, there is the risk of hemorrhage."
These words made Xiao Jin's heart sink completely.
"Isn't there a way to have the best of both worlds?"
The imperial physicians' gray beards were all tangled up in confusion, but they did not dare to make any final statements.
"If we can confirm that the tumor in the Queen's body is not fatal, we can keep the child."
“How can we be sure?”
"This still requires us to further examine the Empress."
Every day after that, a group of imperial doctors would come to Su Ying to examine her. With a row of imperial doctors standing in front of her, she suddenly felt that her Fengluan Palace had become crowded.
It's like being consulted by experts every day. These old guys can find something wrong with me even if I'm healthy.
After a period of examination, the imperial doctors made a decision by voting and felt that the child could be kept.
Of course, the main reason is that they cannot afford the risk of Su Ying getting an accident when the baby is aborted.
However, in order to ensure that Su Ying could safely give birth, Xiao Jin directly asked two female doctors to live in Fengluan Palace to prevent any accidents.
Su Ying had chosen the female doctors herself, with the purpose of having them perform tumor removal surgery on her, and possibly a caesarean section if necessary.
Both women had a long history of medical practice, and it was not difficult for them to learn two surgical operations in a few months.
