Chapter 10: Name
The Imperial Physician Director was the Imperial Physician of Emperor Yongping, while Imperial Physician Cheng was the Imperial Physician of the Eastern Palace.
One thing they have in common is their excellent medical skills and upright character.
If something happens to these two people, there will be no imperial physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau that Emperor Yongping can trust.
As expected, Emperor Yongping did not respond to the empress's words, but kept staring at Chu Qinshu who was sleeping in his arms.
The chief physician soon brought the medical records of the Eastern Palace for this month to Yu's study.
From the beginning of the month to today, every time Yu Jinyi was examined, there was the private seal of Dr. Cheng and Dr. Liang as evidence.
The time of Chu Qinshu's birth was clearly written as '2:00 pm', and the private seals of the two were also stamped on it in bright red. No one would believe it if it was fake.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Cheng returned to the Imperial Hospital at 6:30 am. He handed the medical records to this old minister for review before returning to the palace to rest. There is nothing wrong with the records."
The chief physician was invited to Yu's study, and he didn't know what had happened. He just told the truth about the medical records.
"If the wife of the Duke of Fuguo and the Crown Princess ask Dr. Cheng to change the medical records, what should the Royal Physician do?"
Before Emperor Yongping could even open his mouth, the Empress jumped out again.
Seeing that Emperor Yongping did not clearly agree with Cui's words, she felt that there was still a chance of success in today's matter.
However, she didn't notice that the Imperial Master beside her was constantly winking at her.
Unfortunately, this scene was seen by Emperor Yongping again.
Imperial Master: “…”
After the prayer, today is indeed unlucky.
He had learned the ability to subdue beasts since he was young, and had never encountered a beast that disobeyed his orders like today.
Moreover, he had lived in the observatory for twenty years and had never had any bumps or scratches in the past. But today, he rolled all the way down from the third floor to the first floor.
"The Queen was frightened today. Why don't you help her back to the side hall to rest?"
Emperor Yongping ignored the empress and gave orders directly to the palace maids.
Cui: Are you trying to protect the Queen?
Forget it. The empress has been in the palace for ten years and has been the most favored concubine in the harem for five or six years. She shouldn't have had any expectations of the emperor.
Emperor Yongping: In your eyes, am I such a superficial person?
"emperor……"
The Queen looked at Emperor Yongping with astonishment.
Five years ago, the same operation went so smoothly, why was it so bumpy this time?
Also, the emperor never questioned anything she said before, so why didn’t he let her even say a word today?
"Master, do you have anything else to say?"
The empress was helped away, and Emperor Yongping didn't even look at her, he just stared at the imperial teacher.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It may be that the celestial phenomena are wrong. Please allow me to observe the celestial phenomena again tonight. If there is no abnormal phenomenon, it is a blunder."
The Imperial Master was no fool. He knew that today's matter had already failed, so he quickly thought of ways to make up for it.
All countries are very wary of the evil star.
Since this matter came from his mouth, it should naturally end with his mouth.
Otherwise, if unfavorable rumors spread, Sheng Anguo would be in big trouble, and he would have to bear the consequences alone.
Cui: Who was it who just swore that he had been the imperial teacher for twenty years and would never make mistakes in predicting the celestial phenomena?
"Humph, since you have misjudged the celestial phenomena, there is no need to mention this matter any more. If someone spreads this, your head will be used as a sacrifice."
The matter was basically settled, and Emperor Yongping believed Chu Qinshu's words to about 70%.
So he decided not to investigate the matter openly to avoid making a fuss.
The identity of the imperial teacher is of great importance and must be reported to Xiangguo Temple for verification before any decision can be made.
"I will obey your Majesty's orders."
It was a rare occasion for the Imperial Preceptor to kneel in Yu's study; the eunuchs, palace maids, Cui, the Imperial Physician and others also knelt on the ground.
If any rumor about what happened today gets out and causes unrest among the people, these people will probably be in big trouble.
"Since the Imperial Master has misjudged the celestial phenomena, the incident at Fengming Palace must have another cause. I hope the Imperial Master can find out the truth as soon as possible."
"I will investigate as soon as possible."
A thin layer of sweat covered the plump face of the Imperial Master, and he just hoped that Emperor Yongping would quickly let him go back to the Observatory.
His legs and buttocks hurt.
"Okay, let's all go down."
Emperor Yongping sat there without moving, just waved his hand and told everyone to disperse.
The Imperial Master and the Chief Physician had both left, leaving only Cui and Chu Yanjing in the palace.
It’s not that they don’t want to leave, but Chu Qinshu hasn’t come back yet.
Emperor Yongping drank a cup of tea and paused before speaking again: "Ruxin, how about I give our daughter the name Qinshu?"
Ruxin was Cui's nickname, and Emperor Yongping had not called her that for many years.
She is the legitimate daughter of the General of the Cavalry. Forty years ago, the General of the Cavalry's mansion was filled with loyal and brave people, but she was the only child left, so the late emperor brought her into the palace to be raised.
Emperor Yongping was ten years older than her and always treated her as his younger sister. When Empress Yuan was alive, he was also on good terms with her.
Normally, Emperor Yongping called her by her nickname because he treated her as a family member with whom he could chat about family matters.
But the word "Qinshu" sounds familiar.
Yes, Empress Yuan’s surname was Feng, her given name was Yunshu, and her nickname was Lanqin.
Emperor Yongping held the swaddling baby in one hand and wrote the word "Qin Shu" on rice paper with the other.
Seeing that Cui didn't respond for a long time, he took the initiative to explain to her.
"A quiet girl is beautiful. Beautiful means beautiful. I hope she will be gentle and quiet, and live a smooth and healthy life."
Qin is taken from the nickname of Empress Yuan, 'Lanqin', and Shu and Shu have the same pronunciation.
He gave his granddaughter this name in memory of the Empress.
Of course, it was more of an expression of his love and cherishment for his granddaughter.
What happened today was enough for him to see clearly the Empress and the Imperial Master’s targeting of the Eastern Palace.
Before he could uncover the forces behind them, he had to make his attitude clear to his granddaughter in order to protect her.
"The name bestowed by the Emperor himself is of course extremely good."
Cui was not stupid. After listening to Emperor Yongping's explanation, she understood what he meant.
Today, I went to Yu's study and unexpectedly came to the right place by accident.
[Did the Emperor drive away the fake monk? The Emperor is so powerful. The Emperor is the most powerful in the universe! ]
Chu Qinshu seemed to hear someone calling her in a daze, so she opened her eyes, and when she saw that she was still in Emperor Yongping's arms, she hurried to flatter him.
However, her obedience lasted less than three seconds before she got embarrassed.
“Wow~Wow~Wow~”
She has to pee!!!
"Are you hungry, Nannan?"
Emperor Yongping was enjoying the praise of his granddaughter one second, but the next second he was in a panic when his granddaughter started crying.
"Your Majesty, the little princess is about to pee."
Cui remembered that it had been more than an hour since the boy last urinated, so she wanted to reach out and catch it.
She stretched out her hand quickly, but Emperor Yongping was a little slow, and the baby leaked when he lifted it up.
"Your Majesty, this..."
When Cui saw the indescribable expression on Emperor Yongping's face, she couldn't help wanting to laugh.
"It doesn't matter. My own granddaughter, can't she pee on me once?"
Emperor Yongping said this, but his hands did not stop moving. He stuffed the baby into Cui's arms without waiting for the water in the swaddling to leak out.
"Your Majesty, I came here in a hurry and forgot to bring a diaper for the little princess. I will take her back to the East Palace first."
Cui was afraid that the girl would feel uncomfortable after getting wet, so she took her and wanted to leave.
"Well, go back quickly and change clothes for Nannan. Don't make her feel uncomfortable."
Emperor Yongping had already stood up and was about to go to the inner room to change his clothes, so he waved his hand to let Cui leave.
Chu Yanjing also hurriedly bowed and took his leave.
"Your Majesty, how come the little... little princess peed on you? Oh, this is too unlucky. I will help you change your clothes."
The Queen had been secretly listening to what was happening outside in the side hall. Seeing that the Imperial Master had taken the blame for her, she felt relieved.
Seeing that everyone had left, he went to Emperor Yongping to show his courtesy.
Chu Qinshu, being held by Cui, had just walked to the door of Yu's study when she heard the Queen's words clearly.
[Alas, how could the emperor like such a flatterer? When I can speak again, I will tell the emperor that he has been cuckolded twice by the queen...]
Chu Yanjing frowned. He had never seen the emperor wearing a green hat.
Emperor Yongping stiffened his body and dodged the hand extended by the empress without leaving a trace.
Cui: “…”
This auditory hallucination is never-ending, right?
Besides, is it possible for a lady like her to listen to the palace secrets?
Damn it, your head is about to be lost.
