Granny Wuya had lived for decades and rarely seen such a beauty; she couldn't help but cherish her dearly.
"As for the child, there might be one. These days are not when Your Majesty is supposed to have her period. It seems that it hasn't come yet this month. Why don't we go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Physician Liu to come and take her pulse? That way, Your Majesty will be at ease."
Upon hearing this, Consort De thought about it and realized that she hadn't gotten her period yet. She had been so angry lately that she had forgotten about it.
