Chapter 382 Hip
Why are you so keen on letting him sleep in the study? Does he look so untrustworthy?
Xie Guimo would not agree to not allow himself to eat or hug the wife he had finally married.
He went straight back to the room. Chen Qi knew that the prince would not sleep in the study, but Ginkgo handed the bedding to him, and he did not dare to refuse it. If he made Ginkgo unhappy, he would not know how to coax him to sleep.
Chen Qi went out with Xie Guimo, holding the bedding and pillow, and brought them back to Ginkgo.
Chen Tang took a hot bath and lay down. When she saw Xie Guimo coming back, she looked at him and said, "Mother asked you to sleep in the study."
Xie Guimo pinched her nose, "You know I won't listen to my mother's arrangement, but you still do this."
Chen Tang touched his bulging belly, "But it's really inconvenient..."
Although it's only been six months, his belly is bigger than that of an eight-month-old baby. He can't have sex in the next three months. If the princess hadn't been worried, she wouldn't have let him move to the study.
The next three months were even more dangerous than the first three months. If anything went wrong, she didn't dare to think about whether she could bear it.
Xie Guimo put his hand on her belly and could feel the little person in her belly kicking him. The feeling was magical. He even couldn't wait to give birth to the child and see what he looked like.
He felt it for a long time, and then his hand became restless and reached into her clothes. Chen Tang glared at him, and he turned sideways, bit her earlobe and said, "Today is the last time, the next time will have to wait until the baby is a full month old..."
Chen Tang calculated in his heart that it would be four months later, and even though he was a little tired, he couldn't bear to refuse again.
The night is lingering.
…
The next day, Chen Tang woke up and when he moved his body, he felt a cracking sound in his hips. It was just a cracking sound, as it had happened before, but this time it was particularly painful.
He was obviously very gentle last night, no different from before, so why does it hurt today?
Chen Tang guessed that it was because she went to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion yesterday and walked around the streets for half a day. She had to walk too much when she was pregnant, but she couldn't walk too much.
Chen Tang thought that the pain would go away after a while, but it didn't. Instead, it became more and more severe.
It was so serious that she could not stand up even after sitting on the small couch for a while. Gingko hurriedly helped her up and asked, "What happened to the Crown Prince's Consort?"
Chen Tang said, "My hips hurt a little..."
Ginkgo didn't understand what Chen Tang didn't understand, so she was so scared that she quickly called Qiu Tong, "Hurry up and call the imperial physician."
Qiu Tong hurried out to pass on the message. Xie Guimo was reading in the study. When he heard that Chen Tang wanted to ask for a doctor, he came back and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Tang said, "It's just that my hip hurts, the child is fine..."
Xie Guimo helped her lie down on the bed, "When did the pain start?"
"I woke up the day before yesterday morning with a little pain, and I thought I could just bear with it."
Xie Guimo said, "Why don't you call a doctor if it hurts?"
She also wanted to, but it would be so embarrassing if the doctor said it was caused by sexual intercourse.
Xie Guimo knew what Chen Tang was worried about and regretted asking for it that day, but it was useless to regret it now.
Chen Tang asked the imperial physician for help, which was no small matter. When the princess heard about it, she hurried to Chenxiangxuan. When she heard that Xie Guimo was in pain in his hip, she glared at him and scolded him without saying anything. Before Xie Guimo dared to talk back, the imperial physician arrived after the princess finished scolding him.
The princess asked, "Doctor, please take a look. Are the adults and children okay?"
The imperial physician sat down and took Chen Tang's pulse. Since Chen Tang became pregnant, she would ask for a safe pulse every half a month. The imperial physician said, "The pulse is fine, the fetus is fine."
Xie Guimo said, "Are you sure you're okay? My hip has been hurting for several days."
The imperial physician said, "The Crown Princess' hip pain is probably caused by the fetus growing too fast in her belly, which is causing pressure. Another possibility is that the child is growing bones, and the Crown Princess's usual diet does not provide enough nutrition, which is absorbed from the mother's body."
Not enough nutrition...
The princess couldn't believe her ears.
The Crown Prince's Consort of Jingyang Palace is pregnant and may lack nutrition for the fetus in her womb.
When word of this reached the small kitchen, several mothers who were in charge of Chen Tang's food were horrified. They had always taken great care of the Crown Prince's Consort's food. They provided her with food that was different from anything that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, or swam in the water. The Crown Prince's Consort ate a lot, so how could she not get enough nutrition?
Gingko asked, "Did the Crown Prince's Consort eat less?"
Chen Tang also regretted that she was afraid that the baby in her belly would grow too fast and would be difficult to give birth to, so she intentionally controlled her food intake, causing the baby to lack nutrition.
The doctor shook his head, "It's not that you don't eat enough, you need to eat something that can help your bones grow, fish bones or pearl powder, tiger bone powder is the best."
It is difficult for ordinary people to get tiger bones, but it is not difficult for the Jingyang Palace, so the imperial physician picked the best ones.
The imperial physician said, "Generally, hip pain is mostly caused by these two reasons. The former will get much better once you get used to it, and the latter will be greatly relieved if it is no longer lacking."
The princess said, "Thank you, imperial physician."
Ordinary medicine is useless. Besides, pregnant women are advised not to take medicine unless necessary. The imperial physician did not leave any prescription and left.
Before the imperial physician left, Xie Guimo ordered, "I'll ask Chen Qi to get the tiger bones and grind them into two large Dongzhu beads for consumption."
Imperial Physician: "..."
I really can't help it.
The imperial physician turned around and said, "Any ordinary pearl will do."
He knew that the Jingyang Palace had no shortage of Dadong pearls, but this was such a waste of resources. Even if the Prince of Jingyang didn't feel sorry for them, he did.
Ginkgo said, "I will go to the storehouse and get two ordinary pearls, grind them into powder and send them to you."
Xie Guimo said, "Take the Great Dongzhu."
Of course his wife has to eat the best.
Chen Tang said, "Don't listen to him, just the ordinary ones will do."
The princess said, "Try to get some tiger bone powder. When Mo'er was a child, he tossed and turned at night and couldn't sleep. Dean Zhao asked him to take tiger bone powder, and his body became much stronger than that of ordinary martial artists."
If you nourish it from the belly, the child will be stronger than Mo'er in the future.
Xie Guimo said, "It's a good thing the imperial physician came and cleared my name, otherwise I would have been scolded."
The princess just scolded him just now, but now she wants to beat her son. Why is it so difficult to get him to sleep in the study?
Two pearls were too few, and a lot of them were used to grind ink. Ginkgo took six or seven. Fortunately, there were no Dadong pearls, otherwise several thousand taels would have been gone.
Grind the ink into fine pieces, roll it into a ball with syrup, and Chen Tang swallows it.
Chen Qi searched all the pharmacies in Kyoto, big and small, but none of them sold tiger bones. He then went to the Imperial Hospital to ask, and they did have some, but tiger bones had been soaked in wine, and pregnant women should not drink alcohol. Although nothing would be left after burning, the case involved the young master of Jingyang Palace, so the imperial doctors dared not take it lightly. There were many alternatives to tiger bones, the most common of which was pig bones, but the effect was slightly worse.
But the imperial physician said that tiger bones were the best. We must use tiger bones. If they are not available in the pharmacy, how could they not be available in the mountains?
Several secret guards went up the mountain, killed one and brought it back, and sent it directly to the Imperial Hospital.
The imperial doctors: "..."
I’ve seen men doting on their wives, but I’ve never seen anyone doting on them like this.
The imperial kitchen was called in to peel off the tiger's skin and shave off the bones. After working for most of the day, they finally turned the bones into snow-white tiger bone powder which was put into a jar.
Tiger bone powder is a good thing. It is not only good for pregnant women, but also for the elderly and growing children.
Chen Tang couldn't eat so much by himself, so he divided it into several portions and gave them to Princess Roujia, Yun Yi, Chen Ran and the others, as well as the old lady, Madam Yun, and the young masters of the An family...
