Cailu is capable and courageous, so it's not surprising that she became a female official.
"Is my master here? I'd like to discuss this with him."
"He chased after me all the way there, and he should be back in the next few days. Madam, please don't worry, I have already written a letter to the capital, and we will have a reply soon."
I touched my belly. This can't be rushed. Taking care of my health is the most important thing.
The steward brought a doctor over, and he had to take the patient's pulse every day. Although it was tedious, there was no other way.
Three days later, Consort Ji suddenly arrived. I was completely unprepared and had Wan'er quickly apply makeup to me. Although it was rushed, I couldn't recognize my original appearance when I looked in the mirror.
"Oh dear, Sishuang, no need for such formalities, please get up." Consort Ji was still the same as before, kind on the surface but with many things on her mind.
When I looked up, I saw Wan'er in the crowd. Shouldn't she be at the Ji residence? How come she's with Consort Ji?
"Sishuang, I brought you some tonics. You're pregnant now, so you need to be careful."
I nodded without saying a word, and none of them could guess who I was.
"Your Majesty, please come in."
Consort Ji held my hand and said, "I didn't get to see you last time I came, but I'm so glad to see you this time. When I was at the Ji residence, your mother always talked about you, but she was unwell and couldn't come with me."
Why would Consort Ji leave the palace? Could it be that the Emperor has gone on another incognito visit?
After she finished, Wan'er stood next to her. Could she really be Consort Ji's spy?
Even if Wan'er is one, I can understand. To survive here, it's very difficult to live without relying on someone capable.
"It's a pity. I heard you developed a rash on your face during your pregnancy. Fortunately, my female healer is skilled; let her examine you." Wan'er bowed to me and then stepped down.
Bizhu looked at Wan'er and recognized her. She stared at her intently. She couldn't possibly forget the grand "arranged marriage" last year.
"Your Majesty, my lady is unwell and is being cared for by a doctor, so there is no need for this female physician to trouble herself."
"How dare you! This is the master's business, not a servant's!"
I pressed down on Bizhu, signaling her to step back. In this state, Wan'er wouldn't recognize me.
I reached out and placed my hand on the silk handkerchief, and Wan'er lowered her hand and began to take my pulse.
She glanced at me during that time, which made my heart pound.
"Your Majesty, the lady's pulse is normal."
Consort Ji came down, took my hand, and said earnestly, "That's good. I will be in Linyang these days. If Sishuang is feeling unwell, just go to her. Wan'er, take good care of the Marquis's wife."
"yes."
Consort Ji is really putting on a show. I have absolutely no idea what she's thinking. If Li Ruowei or Consort Ji's mother were here, I could talk to them about it, but now I can only take it one step at a time.
After Consort Ji left, Bizhu took Wan'er's hand and asked, "Aren't you the palace maid who was betrothed to the prince consort last time?"
Wan'er nodded; she was always gentle.
"That's strange. You're not in the palace, so why are you in Linyang?"
“I was originally in the Ji family mansion, but the prince consort went to the Northwest. Later, the princess came to the Ji family mansion and made a scene for a while. Then the Empress took me in and gave me the identity of a personal physician.”
No way, does Li Zhaole really hate Wan'er that much? I have to pretend to be mute now, and I can't speak, so I can only continue to listen to Bizhu's questions.
"So, can you really cure illnesses?"
"Yes, my family has been practicing medicine for generations. Before I entered the palace, I followed my parents to treat and save people."
Where are you from?
“My ancestral home is in the capital. Later, for some reason, my parents sent me to the palace.”
