"Nothing." Dong Lizheng curled his lips, "They came to check your pulse."
Yue Lingyin didn't know what a safe pulse meant, but she believed that Dong Lizheng would not harm her. She listened to him and sat behind the curtain, leaving only her fair and slender wrist exposed.
The left judge put his hand on it, then shook it a little, and asked the director of the Imperial Hospital to take the pulse. The two looked at each other, and the director stood up to block the other people who were about to come over to take the pulse.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say to the judge of the Left Court. Please dismiss your attendants."
Seeing that he had a serious expression, Dong Lizheng clenched his hands slightly in his sleeves and asked everyone else to go down.
The judge of the Left Court made a startling statement: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is not ill, she is pregnant."
"Pregnant?!" Dong Lizheng was surprised and delighted: "Are you sure the diagnosis is correct?"
The Imperial Hospital's Director had come to a conclusion and said respectfully, "Absolutely true."
Dong Lizheng asked Doctor Lin to come in. Doctor Lin kept wiping his forehead with his sleeve.
Dong Lizheng looked at him coldly: "Do you also think the Queen Mother is pregnant?"

Dong Lizheng looked at the three people present, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
The Imperial Hospital's Director was unhurried: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager needs the Imperial Physician's help with her pregnancy. I am qualified to do that."
The Left Court Judge said: "Your Majesty, it takes ten months to nurture a baby. It is inevitable that the Court Historian will be absent from the palace due to personal matters. I can take turns with the Court Historian."
Doctor Lin: "Your Majesty...your Majesty..."
Dong Lizheng: "Come here, gag Doctor Lin and drag him out to behead him."
The court doesn't need people with many thoughts.
Doctor Lin collapsed to the ground. He had only grabbed an order and wanted to perform well in front of the emperor, but he never expected to encounter such a disaster.
He burst into tears and said, "Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me!"
The court historian and the left court judge watched coldly, saying that serving the emperor was like serving a tiger. If the emperor was a little more cruel and was dragged into this by Imperial Physician Lin, everyone would die.
Dong Lizheng remained unmoved. Doctor Lin was gagged and dragged away. As the footsteps faded away, Qinghan Palace became silent.
