Standing in front of the medicine stove, Imperial Physician Zhang's face instantly showed some hesitation. After a moment of hesitation, he still began to decoct the medicine.
…
About half an hour later, Imperial Physician Zhang carried the warm medicine into the main tent.
Many of the people who had been gathered at the entrance had already left, but Hua Xun was still there.
Seeing that Physician Zhang was holding a bowl of dark medicine, she said, "Physician Zhang, let me take it inside."
Imperial Physician Zhang shook his head: "His Majesty ordered me to prepare the medicine, so it would be better if I went myself. It's getting late, General, you should go back and rest."
"His Majesty... does he... have feelings for Wan Ge...?" Hua Xun lowered his head, still unaware that he was a fool.
Seeing the other person's reaction, Imperial Physician Zhang sighed and said, "Young General, be careful with your words. How could we possibly guess His Majesty's thoughts?"
Hua Xun listened to Physician Zhang's voice but ultimately did not voice his thoughts.
Seeing that he obediently shut his mouth, Imperial Physician Zhang patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, and then walked into the main tent.
…
Ye Chenzhou frowned slightly as he looked at the bowl of dark, unpleasant-smelling medicine: "What kind of medicine is this?"
Physician Zhang immediately tensed up and stammered anxiously, "A...medicine to prevent miscarriage..."
His mind raced as he pondered what medicine to brew. He felt he couldn't bear the guilt of murdering the imperial heir, so after much deliberation, he decided to brew a bowl of medicine to prevent miscarriage.
"Is that so?" Ye Chenzhou's voice was indifferent.
Physician Zhang was sweating profusely again, and then Ye Chenzhou continued, "To me, it looks like he's treating an injury."
"Ah? Yes, yes, it's for treating the princess's injuries."
Ye Chenzhou nodded with satisfaction, and then slowly said, "I think Imperial Physician Zhang's medical skills are excellent, and it's time for him to be promoted."
"Your Majesty wouldn't dare; I was merely fulfilling my duty." Hearing that the other party wanted to promote him, Imperial Physician Zhang felt a slight sense of relief. It seemed His Majesty had no intention of silencing him for the time being.
Ye Chenzhou replied with a smile, "I really like intelligent people like Imperial Physician Zhang. You deserve to be promoted."
Physician Zhang quickly apologized again, then held the medicine, seemingly intending to feed it to Wan Ge.
But Ye Chenzhou took the medicine he was holding and walked to the bedside, gently waking Wan Ge.
Wan Ge was indeed quite tired and fell asleep. Plus, she had someone she trusted by her side, so she slept very soundly and didn't hear their conversation at all.
Seeing His Majesty treat him so gently, Imperial Physician Zhang couldn't help but feel grateful for his luck. If he had said the wrong thing or prepared the wrong medicine, he might have died.
Fortunately, he was smart enough that if he had made a single mistake, he would have worried about whether he would live or die, instead of being happy about his promotion.
…
After Wan Ge finished her medicine, she fell asleep again. Not long after she fell asleep, her uncle still requested an audience with the emperor.
The main reason was that his niece's condition was very bad, so he felt that as her uncle, he should know the truth about it.
Ye Chenzhou allowed the other party to see Wan Ge, but Wan Ge was still sleeping, with only a little gauze wrapped around her face, while the rest of her body was covered up completely.
After acquainting with her, Ye Chenzhou had her come outside with him to avoid disturbing her.
