"Your Highness is weak inside, has some uterine coldness, and has blocked fallopian tubes. Your menstruation should be irregular, right?" Feng Yuxing sat on the chair next to Noble Concubine Yuan, pinching her wrist pulse with one hand, and muttering something at the same time. After saying that, he even lifted up Noble Concubine Yuan's sleeves, carefully looked at her exposed arms, and then shook his head and said, "Your arms are smooth and white, but not normal. If Ah Heng is right, Your Highness should clean the sweat hair on her arms regularly to maintain her image, right? In fact, not only do you have thick sweat hair on your arms, but I'm afraid that your armpits and legs are also thicker."
Concubine Yuan listened to Feng Yuheng's words, but she didn't quite understand the first half. She understood Gong Han, but what was a fallopian tube? However, she understood the latter part, and had to admit that Feng Yuheng was right. She did have too much body hair. When she first entered the palace, her family asked the Miao people to make a good ointment, so that she could pass the inspection of the nanny during the selection. The ointment had been used since she entered the palace, until Concubine Yun entered the palace and Emperor Tianwu favored concubines again for more than 20 years, and then it was unused. She thought she would never use it again, but she didn't expect to have another chance at this age. Naturally, she couldn't let the old emperor see her ugly side, so she asked the Gu Master to prepare a new ointment, specifically for removing dense body hair.
Emperor Tianwu often praised her fair skin, but she didn't expect that Feng Yuheng would point it out today, which made her a little embarrassed. But thinking about it again, facing a doctor, especially a female doctor, there was nothing to be embarrassed about, so she asked: "I don't quite understand what you said, what does having too much body hair have to do with whether you can have children?"
Feng Yuheng told her: "It is very relevant. At your age, do you think your chances of getting pregnant are the same as those of young women around fifteen or twenty? I am not trying to discourage you, but you have already had a son over the years, and since your father did not enter the harem, you have given up the idea of having another heir, so you have not put any effort into maintaining your pregnancy, right?"
Concubine Yuan nodded, this was indeed true.
Feng Yuheng continued, "The most obvious manifestation of polycystic ovaries is excessive body hair and irregular menstruation, sometimes once every two months, sometimes even once every three months. Of course, the Imperial Hospital also has medicine for this, just take it. Unfortunately, it is only a temporary solution. If you don't solve the polycystic ovaries from the root, it will be useless to take more menstruation-regulating medicine. And irregular menstruation directly leads to a significant reduction in the probability of pregnancy. In addition, the so-called blocked fallopian tubes, I don't know if you can understand it if I explain it to you, but it generally means that the female ovulation function is blocked, the egg is blocked, and ovulation cannot be successful. And children require the combination of eggs and men's sperm, neither of which can be missing. Do you understand?"
Concubine Yuan didn't quite understand, but she could get the general idea. She thought for a while, and asked Feng Yuheng with the help of the tea bowl at hand: "Do you mean that, for example, the water in these two tea bowls must touch each other to give birth to a child. But now the tea bowl in my hand is covered by a lid, and the water can't pour out, so even if the water in your bowl pours out normally, the child can't be born?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "The Imperial Concubine is very smart. She understood everything at once. She has great potential in this area!"
Concubine Yuan did not bother to think whether this was a sarcastic remark or a compliment. The illness Feng Yuheng mentioned made her start to worry. If this was true, then her chances of getting pregnant were so low. How could she get pregnant? Even with the "help" of the Gu Master, it would not work, right?
She was a little anxious, and urged Feng Yuheng to ask: "Can this disease be cured? How to cure it? Can you cure it?"
Feng Yuheng smiled, "Since I can find out, I can certainly cure it. But..." She paused, stared at Concubine Yuan, and after a while, asked, "Do you dare to let me cure it?"
Concubine Yuan was startled. She had been thinking about her body before. After all, she was at this age. In addition, she had been disappointed in the palace for more than 20 years and had never paid attention to this aspect of maintenance. Therefore, she believed Feng Yuheng's words about 70%. But now that the other party said this again, she began to worry again.
Yes! Even if Feng Yuheng could cure it, would she dare to let him? Treating with medicine is like handing her sexuality over to the other party. She would take whatever medicine the other party said she would take, but medicine is three-quarters poisonous. Feng Yuheng and her side are sworn enemies. Once he tampered with the medicine, it would be too late for her to regret.
Thinking of this, Concubine Yuan's dependence on Feng Yuheng was instantly reduced a lot. She even sat up straight again, moved a little further away from Feng Yuheng, and said, "That's right! Now that you mention it, I really think the risk is a bit greater. As for the symptoms you mentioned, I can't believe them all for the time being. I'll ask the imperial physician from the Imperial Hospital to come and take a look tomorrow. I think the imperial physician in the palace can also help me fulfill my wish of giving birth to another prince for the emperor."
Feng Yuheng smiled and did not force it. She just said, "Then your Majesty should ask the imperial physician to take a look! But I believe that your Majesty must have seen many imperial physicians after she regained her favor. I wonder if there is any imperial physician in the palace who can point out the key to the disease?" All symptoms are not completely accurate. After all, it is impossible to check so clearly just by feeling the pulse. Polycystic ovary exists, she is sure of this, but she is scaring the other party about the blocked fallopian tubes. This kind of disease needs to be checked, and it has to rely on the medical equipment of later generations. It is still a bit outrageous to just feel the pulse.
But for Feng Yuheng, what does it matter whether it's true or false? Since she has blamed Concubine Yuan for the blocked fallopian tubes today, she has the ability to really block her fallopian tubes. If the disease is hard to cure, is it hard to get the disease?
She withdrew her hand, picked up the tea bowl on the table, blocked it with her wide sleeves, and drank half a bowl of tea with her head tilted back.
But the moment she put the tea bowl down, she saw a hint of joy in Concubine Yuan's eyes. She stared at the tea bowl until she put it back on the table. But when she saw that half of the tea was gone, the joy in Concubine Yuan's eyes became even greater.
Feng Yuheng had expected this to happen. Even if the poison was not raised by Concubine Yuan, it must have something to do with Emperor Tianwu. For someone who could poison the emperor, it was impossible for the Cunshan Palace to be completely unprepared. When she came here today, Xuan Tianming had already reminded her not to eat anything here, let alone drink a mouthful of water, in order to avoid being poisoned by someone and becoming a puppet like Emperor Tianwu.
Feng Yuheng certainly understood this principle, and she also knew more about witchcraft, so she didn't actually drink the half bowl of tea just now. Instead, under the cover of her wide sleeves, she poured it into an empty cup on the counter in the space, leaving it for research when she returned.
The joy that Concubine Yuan had captured at that moment made her even more certain that there was something wrong with the tea. She had no intention of pretending to be controlled, but instead wanted to use the excuse that she had nothing to do to tell Concubine Yuan that that set of tricks was of no use to her, Feng Yuheng.
The two stopped talking and sat quietly. Concubine Yuan stared at Feng Yuheng with scrutiny and even expectation, eager to see some changes in her expression. But after observing for a long time, she still couldn't see clearly. She felt that the woman in front of her was no different from usual. She drank half a bowl of tea as if she didn't drink it at all, without any special reaction.
But, this shouldn't be the case! The Gu Master clearly told her that once someone drinks this tea, it will react after ten breaths. The other person will show great admiration for her and will listen to whatever she says. There is absolutely no chance of failure.
But it seemed like she had failed here with Feng Yuheng. Not only did she not admire her, but she looked at her with a mocking expression, and asked, "My Royal Concubine, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my face, or do you think I'm prettier than you and want to take a few more glances?" Feng Yuheng laughed as she spoke, "It's true that I'm prettier than you. After all, I'm younger, and the gap of more than 20 years is no joke. But My Royal Concubine doesn't need to feel any pressure. I'm my father's daughter-in-law. No matter how good I look, I'm only for His Highness the Ninth Prince to appreciate."
Concubine Yuan almost vomited blood in anger. If she had known that Feng Yuheng was sharp-tongued, she would have said everything she dared not to say. The two of them had fought several times, and she lost every time. She thought that now that she had a high status and was favored, it would only be a draw and she would not lose again. But she did not expect that when facing Feng Yuheng, the other party always had a way to block her from saying a word.
But now was not the time to argue with him. Imperial Concubine Yuan was still immersed in the question of why Feng Yuheng was not poisoned, until Feng Yuheng asked her again: "Madam Imperial Concubine, do you want me to treat you? Have the people in the Imperial Hospital ever told you about these symptoms before? I don't know if those quack doctors are up to the task!"
Only then did Concubine Yuan remember what happened before, and she couldn't help feeling annoyed again.
Feng Yuheng was right. She had been examined by the imperial physician since she was restored to favor, but the imperial physician only said that she was old and the chance of pregnancy was small, but he was not as professional as Feng Yuheng. In addition, didn't she understand the character of those people in the Imperial Hospital? They always said good things and did good things. Even if she was seriously ill, they would not dare to tell her at this time, and even made up lies to deceive her in order to protect themselves.
But without relying on the imperial physician, can she feel at ease relying on Feng Yuheng?
Concubine Yuan looked at Feng Yuheng, and the more she looked at her, the more she felt that this girl was weird, and the more she looked at her, the more she felt that she really couldn't get the slightest advantage from her. It wasn't a big deal, she just felt that the several strange incidents that happened in Sheng Wangfu were all done by Feng Yuheng, including the eighth prince's illness this time.
Thinking of this, he became emotional, and immediately asked Feng Yuheng angrily: "Tell me! Is it you who caused the Eighth Prince's illness?"
