Xueying was very anxious as she watched Physician Yang deep in thought, but she dared not say anything to disturb him.
Standing to the side, A Luo couldn't help but feel uneasy when she saw that Physician Yang hadn't spoken for a long time. So she asked anxiously, "Physician, why aren't you saying anything? How is our Empress's health?"
Upon hearing A'Luo's words, Physician Yang lowered his hand, stood up, and said to Xueying, "Your Majesty, your body is deficient in Yin and Qi, making it indeed difficult for you to conceive."
Upon hearing Physician Yang's words, Xueying felt somewhat disappointed. She had been trying to conceive for a long time without success. However, Physician Yang had only said that she had difficulty conceiving, not that she could not conceive at all. So she quickly asked, "Physician Yang, is there any way to treat this?"
Xueying was unwilling to give up this opportunity; she had always longed for a child. Ever since Hongli invited a famous doctor from the capital specializing in treating uterine coldness to conceive for her, Xueying had made up her mind to have He's child. Now that she saw that even the newly arrived Jin Shi was pregnant, Xueying was even more anxious.
Upon hearing this, Physician Yang stroked her beard and slowly said, "Your Majesty's yin deficiency and weakness are chronic ailments. If you wish to conceive, you will need to recuperate slowly."
"Then I'll trouble Physician Yang to prescribe a medicine for me." Xueying felt hopeful when she saw that there was a chance to recuperate.
"Your Majesty is too kind. It is my duty." After saying this, Physician Yang picked up the paper and pen that A Luo had prepared and wrote a prescription for Xue Ying's recuperation.
Meanwhile, just as Physician Yang arrived at Yikun Palace, Mingyu's informant, who had been stationed there, came to report, "Your Majesty, Consort Xian just requested Physician Yang to come and examine your pulse."
Mingyu calmly picked up the cup on the table, gently smoothed the few tea leaves floating in the cup with the lid, and looked indifferently in the direction of Yikun Palace.
You finally couldn't sit still anymore; you realized you were getting impatient.
Mingyu nodded, signaling Zixun to give her a reward, "You continue to keep a close eye on the movements at Yikun Palace, now you may leave."
"Thank you for your reward, Your Highness. This servant will take her leave now." The palace maid happily accepted the reward money from Zi Xun and said quickly.
Mingyu watched the palace maid's departing figure and said calmly, "It seems that Consort Xian is anxious because of Jin's pregnancy."
Upon hearing Mingyu's words, Zixun, who was standing to the side, smiled and said, "The one in Yikun Palace has never had a child. Looking at her frail body, she doesn't seem like she could get pregnant."
As soon as Zi Xun finished speaking, a burst of mocking laughter rang out; it was Consort Gao.
Because Mingyu had summoned Lady Gao to discuss the expenses of the inner palace, Consort Gao was also in Changchun Palace for this matter.
Consort Gao, standing to the side, sneered with a mocking look in her eyes, "She can't conceive because her aunt did too many bad things, and this is her retribution."
Upon hearing Consort Gao's words, Mingyu said no more. She did not want to continue discussing this matter, so she changed the subject and said in a deep voice, "Let's talk about the expenses of the inner palace. If she wants to see it, let her see the imperial physician."
Seeing the gloom on Hongli's face these past few days, Mingyu knew that Hongli was troubled by the natural disaster. Seeing Hongli neglecting his meals and sleep all day long, Mingyu felt very sorry for him.
Hongli encountered a natural disaster shortly after ascending the throne, resulting in poor harvests in many places. The court naturally allocated funds for disaster relief, but the national treasury was not full, which gave Mingyu a great headache.
