Su Xue wasn't stupid. Although she didn't know what Song Yuerong had done, the fact that the Fourth Prince was punishing her so meticulously meant it couldn't be anything good.
So she fulfilled her duties to Song Yuerong, and as for other matters, she was doing a good job as a female official, so why get herself into trouble?
And so, Song Yuerong studied from early spring to midsummer.
With the imperial concubine selection imminent, Song Yuerong was even more anxious. If there were no unexpected events, the fourth princess consort would be chosen from among this year's candidates.
Furthermore, besides his wife, the Fourth Prince's harem will likely see new women entering. At that time, she, a palace maid who hasn't been slept with, will have no future.
But no matter how anxious she was, there was nothing she could do; she could only worry helplessly.
In Ulanara Prefecture, Shuwan felt that her periods had become increasingly painful each time recently. She had experienced pain before, but never this severe.
Menstruation is linked to a woman's fertility. At first, she didn't think much about it, but after experiencing more pain, she inevitably started to think about it more.
She had her trusted nanny hire a new doctor, and Shuyuan felt that everything was settled. She believed that Shuwan couldn't cause any trouble, so she lowered her guard against Shuwan.
Because she dealt with her so easily, Shuyuan thought that Shuwan was easy to deal with.
So Shuwan quietly switched to a new doctor to take her pulse, and the process went exceptionally smoothly.
The doctor took Shuwan's pulse, frowning as he did so, and then said, "Your Highness, you have been using very cold foods for a long time, which is why your menstrual cramps are getting more and more painful."
Shu Wan was shocked: "How could this be!"
"I'm very careful about what I eat; I basically avoid cold foods altogether. How could that be!"
The doctor frowned. He was a skilled doctor and often treated wealthy people. He knew the intricacies of the situation and was afraid that someone had set him up.
"That's just how the princess's pulse is. If the princess doesn't believe it, she can have someone else take her pulse, and the result will naturally be the same."
Shuwan didn't disbelieve it; she just dared not believe it.
Shuwan asked somewhat fearfully, "How is my health now? Will it affect my ability to have children in the future?"
"Your Highness must take good care of your health. As for the matters that Your Highness is worried about, I'm afraid I can't help you. If Your Highness wants to improve your health, I hope you will seek help from someone more capable."
His body was badly damaged, and there was nothing he could do about it.
As for others, it would be difficult as well.
Shu Wan knew this doctor's medical skills were comparable to those of the imperial physicians, but she didn't want to serve in the palace anymore. Since he said that, her health was probably...
Thinking of this, Shuwan couldn't help but shed tears.
But why? Why her?
