Chapter 175 Xiu Yuan
The young imperial physician hesitated for a while after taking the pulse: "Your Majesty, I am a poor scholar. This pulse condition... I suggest that you replace it with an experienced imperial physician."
Qi Yixiu frowned, "Useless people! Come, bring the sedan chair, send Concubine Jing back first, and tell Doctor Zhao to go to Cuiyunxuan immediately."
The words "useless" made the young imperial physician's face turn pale. With the emperor's golden words, he could forget about getting ahead.
"Yes." Chu Si was also thinking, what's wrong with this? How can he not know such a small thing? Why is he working in the Imperial Medical Bureau? He should go back to farming.
As Jing Jieyu was being carried away, Qi Yixiu was about to leave as well. Lu Baolin hurriedly called out, "Your Majesty?"
Qi Yixiu turned around and said, "Ask the imperial physician to take a good look at you."
After saying this, he left without saying anything else.
Lu Baolin bit his lip, he really hated Shen Chuliu to the core.
In Cuiyunxuan, everyone worked together to help Shen Chuliu lie down on the couch. Doctor Zhao was faster than them, so he was busy waiting.
Just as I was taking the pulse, the emperor came in.
Doctor Zhao thought that the emperor treated Concubine Jing very well now.
After switching from the left hand to the right hand, Doctor Zhao basically understood: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty, Concubine Jing is pregnant. It's just that it's not obvious yet. Now it looks like it's only one month."
"Really?" Qi Yixiu laughed.
"I can guarantee it." Doctor Zhao said with ease.
Some young imperial physicians are indeed incapable of diagnosing a pulse that is too weak.
"Okay, reward." Qi Yixiu was indeed very happy.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty." Zi Rui and others said hurriedly.
"Well, since your master is so happy, I won't punish you." Qi Yixiu waved his hand: "Tell the kitchen to serve well. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, pass on my decree that Concubine Jing will be promoted..."
Qi Yixiu paused and said, "Promote to Jing Xiuyuan."
"Hey, I'll go and convey the order right away." Chusi thought to himself, Empress Jing Xiuyuan is really powerful. She beat Lu Baolin up and nothing happened, and she even got promoted.
Tsk, if the child is born, he will be promoted to a higher position, at least a master of ceremonies.
When the decree spread, the harem was in an uproar.
Everyone knew that Concubine Jing had gone to Qingning Pavilion, and they all hoped that she would beat Lu Baolin so that he could be demoted.
I didn't expect such a commotion. Did I get promoted because I was pregnant?
Maybe she knew she was pregnant, so she did it on purpose? Qi Yixiu thought so at first, but when he found out she was only a month pregnant, he knew it was a coincidence.
When Shen Chuliu woke up, Zizhu was watching over her: "Master, you are awake."
"Yeah." Shen Chuliu was a little confused. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Qi Yixiu coming over.
The emperor didn't know what to say for a moment, so the two of them just stared at each other for a while.
Then Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "I was only wrong. Your Majesty, please punish me."
Qi Yixiu really wanted to hit him, and after a while he said, "Fine one month's salary and remove the sign for one month. Do you accept this?"
"I accept. Thank you very much, Your Majesty." Shen Chuliu said.
Qi Yixiu looked at her for a few seconds and turned away: "Take a good rest."
After saying that, he left.
After he left, Zizhu, Zirui and the others not only did not feel sad, but were all smiling.
Shen Chuliu frowned: "Are you still happy?"
"Master, you don't know it yet! You are Jing Xiuyuan now!" Zi Rui said with a smile.
Shen Chuliu was stunned for a moment and then touched her belly: "I'm pregnant?"
"Yes, yes, it's only been a month!" Zi Rui couldn't wait: "Because you are pregnant, the emperor didn't punish us."
Shen Chuliu was stunned: "You have it already?"
"Yes, it is. Congratulations, Master." Zi Rui said with a smile.
"Congratulations, Empress Xiuyuan." Zizhu said with a smile.
"No need to call me Madam, just call me Master." Shen Chuliu was also happy. Although it didn't matter whether she had a child or not, she naturally welcomed the new life since it was here.
Touching my belly, I said, "I am pregnant. It's amazing."
"Master, this is considered as taking the lead." Zi Rui said.
"Yes, I've made it." Shen Chuliu smiled and closed his eyes again.
In the Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu thought about it and laughed: "What luck?"
Since she is pregnant, we can't blame her, otherwise it would not be appropriate to give her such a light punishment.
"Empress Jing Xiuyuan is blessed." Chusi said.
"Whether she is blessed or not depends on what she gives birth to and whether the birth is good." Qi Yixiu said.
Chu Si agreed, thinking that maybe the emperor would not protect this baby? But then, Qi Yixiu still told him to pay attention.
After all, Li Chongrong's baby and Ying Cairen's baby were protected, so Jing Xiuyuan would not be in danger.
It is indeed time to add a few more princes to the palace.
The Shen family, the person who brought the good news entered the Shen family.
Qu came with her wives to welcome her. When they heard that Shen Chuliu had been promoted to Jing Xiuyuan and had been pregnant for more than a month, they were extremely happy.
He hurriedly thanked the emperor for his grace and rewarded the visitor handsomely.
In Huaxi Hall, Old Lady Qu said with a smile, "Hurry up and write a letter to the Marquis and his family to announce the good news."
Shen Qinghe agreed and went.
"The fourth girl is really doing well! After three years in the palace, she has become one of the nine concubines and is pregnant with the royal heir. If she can give birth to a prince, she will have no worries about her royal status." said Old Lady Qu.
"Yes, it's the blessing of Empress Jing Xiuyuan." The eldest daughter-in-law said with a smile.
"Wait until next year and send Biyu over to help her sister. With a sister who is a ninth concubine, she won't suffer any loss." Old Lady Qu said.
Song smiled and nodded, but she was thinking that if she had to send it in, she might not be able to get out.
Who said Jing Xiuyuan was a kind-hearted person?
However, Shen Biyu's mother, Liang, who had just returned to Beijing, was very happy. How could a niece standing up for herself be the same as a biological daughter standing up for herself?
My daughter is in prison now. I wish she could also hold such a high position.
As the emperor promoted her, the empress and the two empress dowagers all rewarded Shen Chuliu.
Once she was promoted to the ninth concubine and became pregnant, it meant that she had truly established herself.
All the methods used before have failed to subdue her, and it will probably be even more difficult in the future.
In Cirui Palace, Empress Dowager Feng turned the Buddhist beads in her hand and shook her head: "Lu Baolin is not suitable."
"master……"
"The child can be born, but the person cannot. I still have to find a way." Empress Dowager Feng sighed: "Next year, I will have to make arrangements."
"Yes, there's still time." said Madam Zhuang.
"Let them be proud for now. Next year, there will be new people coming in, and there will always be one who can make a name for himself. I will naturally find a way then. Next year, the Li family will come in." That is also an enemy.
The queen is afraid that she can't give birth to a legitimate son, so won't there be a fight over who will be the crown prince in the future? The second prince is the de facto eldest son, but as long as he is not a legitimate son, there is unlimited room for maneuver.
So, she had to plan.
The Feng family cannot have a queen mother and get nothing.
"It's a pity that Li Chongrong cannot be used by me." Concubine Feng sighed.
Originally, when the Feng and Wu families got married, Li Chongrong should have stood on her side, but she refused to do so.
This made Empress Dowager Feng really angry.
