Seeing Yunyi's reaction, the room immediately became noisy. Ruining, the twins, and Yinzhen all looked at Yunyi with concern in their eyes.
At the same time, Yinzhen was also a little scared and couldn't help but doubt himself. Could it be that his wife had also been infected with the plague by him?
Upon hearing this speculation, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel a deep sense of regret. He shouldn't have let his wife stay. The epidemic was dangerous, and he himself had been incubating it for a long time before it broke out. How could he have been so careless and not let Physician Zhang examine him more thoroughly?
Thinking of this, Yinzhen quickly instructed Su Peisheng to invite the imperial physician to treat his wife. At the same time, he prayed that his wife did not have an epidemic.
The situation was urgent, and Su Peisheng went and returned quickly. Since he had similar thoughts to Yinzhen, Su Peisheng specially invited Imperial Physician Zhang when he went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for help.
Throughout the journey, Physician Zhang was somewhat worried. He had just heard Eunuch Su say that the Princess Consort of Prince Yong was suspected of having contracted an epidemic, and Physician Zhang was indeed very concerned.
He had examined everyone before leaving the palace and only allowed them to leave after ensuring their safety. If something were to happen to Prince Yong's wife now, it would be a dereliction of duty on his part.
Because of this, Physician Zhang was very worried, fearing that he might be blamed for doing something wrong.
Arriving at the Prince's residence with a heavy heart, Physician Zhang took a deep breath to calm himself before taking the pulse.
But when he placed his hand on it, Physician Zhang was dumbfounded. Fearing that he had made a wrong diagnosis, he calmed down and carefully felt the sensation.
Because of his seriousness, Physician Zhang's expression became somewhat grave, making those watching nearby even more worried.
Yinzhen's face darkened as he thought to himself, [Could it be that something has truly happened to the Princess Consort, and she has contracted the plague from me? What should I do?]
Seeing Physician Zhang's expression, memories from the past two months flooded back, and Su Peisheng's face changed drastically. [Oh no, Physician Zhang's expression is exactly the same as when the master was ill. Now that he's like this, I'm afraid the princess consort really...]
Still engrossed in taking pulses, Physician Zhang was unaware that his expression was startling the others, as if adding fuel to the fire. At this moment, he frowned again.
Both Yinzhen and Su Peisheng felt a chill run down their spines, which greatly frightened Imperial Physician Zhang.
Yunyi, the person involved, initially thought that Yinzhen was a little nervous. She simply gagged a little, which startled him.
But when Yunyi saw that Su Peisheng had invited Physician Zhang over, she knew what Yinzhen was worried about.
While feeling a warmth in her heart, Yunyi also found it somewhat amusing. She herself knew medicine, so how could she possibly have been infected with the plague by Yinzhen?
It was during this waiting period that Yunyi realized why she had acted that way earlier; she should have...
After a long while, Physician Zhang finally confirmed the pulse. His brows relaxed, and he cupped his hands to congratulate Yinzhen and Yunyi, saying, "Congratulations, Prince Yong! The Princess Consort's pulse is smooth and even; she is pregnant."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With his worries and fears gone, Yinzhen's heart was filled with joy, and his mind was now filled with the thought that his wife was pregnant.
But after the initial surprise came a feeling of unreality. Yinzhen pulled Zhang Taiyi aside, wanting him to take another look: "This pulse is truly genuine. Should we examine it again to confirm?"
Physician Zhang was somewhat speechless. Although he was not a specialist in gynecology, he could still diagnose pregnancy by detecting the pulse.
Pulse diagnosis is a fundamental skill that medical students learn at the very beginning. As a doctor specializing in internal medicine, he naturally wouldn't misdiagnose this small pregnancy pulse. Moreover, to ensure accuracy, he examined the pulse for quite some time before confirming it.
In the previous serious case, he didn't spend this much time taking the pulse of Prince Yong. Now he is so careful when taking the pulse of Prince Yong's wife. How could he possibly make a mistake?
As soon as he said it, Yinzhen realized something was amiss. He quickly straightened his expression, exchanged a few words with Physician Zhang, and then had Su Peisheng escort him out.
After Physician Zhang left, Yinzhen came over, took Yunyi's hand, and began to give her a long, rambling lecture.
Yunyi and Ruining chuckled inwardly as they listened; Yinzhen/Father was just too talkative.
Yunyi is already a mother of countless children; how could she not know these things?
But she patiently waited for Yinzhen to finish speaking, occasionally nodding and smiling in agreement, without showing the slightest impatience.
In Chengqian Palace, Consort Tongjia was delighted to hear the news reported by the young palace maid. Her daughter-in-law was pregnant again, and she would soon have grandchildren to hold.
She beckoned Zhou Mama over, and Tongjia once again opened her storeroom, finding many fine things to send to her daughter-in-law.
Even Emperor Kangxi bestowed rewards upon her after learning of her pregnancy.
Ulanara has made a great contribution this time, and news of her pregnancy has also spread, giving birth to an heir for the royal family, which is even more meritorious.
Emperor Kangxi usually did nothing when his daughters-in-law were pregnant, except when the Crown Princess Guarjia was pregnant.
Now that Emperor Kangxi has bestowed gifts upon Prince Yong's wife while she is pregnant, there is much discussion about it.
Yinzhi's confinement continued. Although he was confined to his own residence and unable to leave during this year, thanks to his previous good reputation, many people still relied on and supported him.
In the study
Upon learning of Kangxi's actions, others speculated, feared, or discussed, but Yinzhi only had one feeling: "As expected."
In his heart, the fourth prince was his greatest enemy. If he failed, then it would definitely be Yinzhen who took that position.
Now that Kangxi has made such a move, on the surface he is showing concern for his daughter-in-law, but behind his back everyone is talking about it.
Could it be that Prince Yong is the emperor's chosen successor, which is why he values the future crown princess so much?
The person he considered his formidable rival was riding high, suffering from a serious illness but managing to pull through, and his wife was pregnant, meaning the family was about to welcome a new member.
On the other hand, he himself was confined to his residence by his father and could not go out. Although he and his wife were loving, they had no children to this day.
Compared to the other two, I have truly lost completely!
It seems we should make use of Lady Sakda. She has been in the household for over a year, and although she is not particularly favored, the fourth prince has not discovered her true identity.
Now that we are at a disadvantage, we can no longer afford to nurture this piece; it's time to make a move.
After figuring out his plan, Yinzhi wrote a secret letter and then summoned someone to deliver it to Sakda.
The day after the letter arrived, Yunyi saw the "encrypted" letter.
It has to be said that this Lao Ba is really ruthless. He uses all sorts of schemes and tricks, which is completely different from the image he cultivates in public.
