Chapter 240 Are you questioning me? Don't be silly!
When Ji Qingwu was invited to Prince Yong's Mansion, he thought something big had happened to Prince Yong's wife.
The young eunuch urged her anxiously. She was in a hurry on the way to the palace. When she reached the door of Jiweiju, she ran into Du Yufang.
She was accompanied by a maid, who was holding the hand of a boy who was still walking unsteadily. He should be Zhao Yunxuan, the eldest son of Prince Yong.
Ji Qingwu was worried about Princess Yong's health, so he walked straight past Du Yufang and went inside.
Du Yufang stopped her and said unhappily, "Miss Ji, can't you see that I am as old as you?"
Ji Qingwu said, "You are so big, and your eyes are so big, but you can't see that I want to go in, but you have to block me. Are you annoying?"
Du Yufang didn't expect that she would speak so impolitely and didn't take her seriously at all. She completely blocked Ji Qingwu's way.
Ji Qingwu didn't want to waste any more words with her. In case Princess Yong was in a bad condition, there was no time to waste.
She grabbed Du Yufang by the back of her clothes and pulled her aside.
Du Yufang felt like she was being dragged by her heels and was terrified.
"Ji, Ji whoever, you are too rude, you are too arrogant in the palace!"
Ji Qingwu didn't bother to pay attention to her accusing voice behind him.
As she walked, she said to the eunuch behind her, "It's too noisy. Can you lock her out?"
The young eunuch smiled innocently and said, "Miss Ji, please don't embarrass me."
Concubine Du has always been respected in the palace, and she has children by her side, so no servant can afford to offend her.
When the young eunuch reached the main door of the study, he was about to knock on the door when it was violently opened from the inside.
When Zhao Minghong saw Ji Qingwu, he was as anxious as an ant on hot pan.
He hurriedly said, "Fifth cousin, come in quickly."
If Ji Qingwu hadn't known that it was impossible, he would have almost thought that Princess Yong was about to give birth. Prince Yong looked anxious, just like a husband waiting outside the delivery room.
It’s no wonder that Zhao Minghong was worried, because Tao Wanyin’s condition was really not normal.
The more gentle he treated her and the more he cared about her, the redder Tao Wanyin's eyes became, as if she had suffered some great injustice and was enduring some tremendous pain.
Before Ji Qingwu came over, Tao Wanyin had already cried.
Zhao Minghong would rather she scolded him than cry in grievance, which almost broke his heart.
Ji Qingwu saw that Princess Yong's face was pale and he was not sure what the illness was.
However, she gave Tao Wanyin some pregnancy-preserving pills last night. Unless she used some conflicting medicine, she would be safe for at least three days.
She stepped forward and said, "Meet the princess."
Tao Wanyin leaned against the head of Luohan's bed, still covered with a thin quilt.
"Qingwu, please come over here." Her eyes were red and swollen, and she said shyly, "I'm not feeling unwell, it's just that the prince is exaggerating."
Zhao Minghong immediately responded, "Is this prince exaggerating? If you are fine, why are you crying? People say that children who are fussy when sleeping are feeling unwell. There must be something wrong with you."
Tao Wanyin felt even more embarrassed and said in defense, "I'm not a mute baby anymore. I've already said it's nothing."
Zhao Minghong came to a decisive conclusion.
"You are not much different from a baby, you are just a taciturn person who keeps everything to yourself and won't talk about anything."
Ji Qingwu saw the two of them arguing with each other, but every word they said was full of concern.
She said, "Princess, give me your hand. I'll see what's going on."
Ji Qingwu placed his fingers on her wrist, pressed it gently for a while, then withdrew his hand.
Zhao Minghong, who was standing by, poked his head in and said, "Fifth cousin, is that all? Why don't you feel her pulse for a while longer?"
Ji Qingwu glanced at him lightly: "Are you questioning me?"
Zhao Minghong shook his head quickly: "No, no."
Ji Qingwu said: "The princess is fine, but..."
Zhao Minghong urged impatiently: "Just what?"
Ji Qingwu said: "Princess, your sleep may not be very good recently. You can take some soothing and warming medicine."
Zhao Minghong frowned and said, "Wanyin must have been frightened by that ignorant maid, otherwise why would she be crying?"
Ji Qingwu's gaze fell outside the door, looking at Concubine Du who was stopped at the door by Chang Lu.
He said slowly: "Heart disease needs heart medicine to cure it, the princess's illness is not in the body."
Chang Lu stopped Du Yufang's men, but did not dare to stop Zhao Yunxuan.
The child walked unsteadily and tripped when he stepped over the threshold of the study, falling flat on his face.
Several people in the room looked at him. The child did not cry or make a fuss. He just fell to the ground and played with his fingers while lying on the ground.
Seeing his eldest son's miserable behavior, Zhao Minghong frowned even deeper.
Ji Qingwu had only taken a cursory glance at Zhao Yunxuan just now, but now after looking him over from head to toe, he discovered that the boy was behaving strangely.
The old woman was pestering Chang Lu, so Du Yufang sneaked in when she had the chance.
Instead of picking up the child first, she rushed directly to Prince Yong. Before she could say anything, two lines of tears flowed out.
"Your Majesty..."
Zhao Minghong asked sternly, "Who allowed you to come in?"
When Du Yufang learned that his trusted maid was imprisoned in a water dungeon, he could not wait to investigate the situation.
Seeing Prince Yong's scary expression, Du Yufang stammered, "Yunxuan hasn't seen the prince for many days, and has been clamoring to see father."
Du Yufang pushed Yunxuan to Prince Yong, but the child just stood there in a daze, looking uninterested in anything.
Zhao Minghong glanced at Tao Wanyin's reaction and happened to meet her eyes.
Tao Wanyin frowned at him and then turned her face away, which made Prince Yong laugh.
Because her eyes were finally no longer filled with indifference and nonchalance, but instead revealed a different kind of emotion, and were also moving in a different way.
Du Yufang pushed Yunxuan twice, trying to force him to his father's side.
As if he was annoyed by being pushed around, Yunxuan ran to the corner of the room and squatted there.
Zhao Minghong became even more upset when he saw this scene.
He said, "I have seen it. Didn't you ask someone to calculate it before? The horoscopes of the princess and Yunxuan are incompatible. You should take Yunxuan back quickly."
This saying of eight characters was originally an excuse that Du Yufang used to bribe the Taoist priests because he didn't want the princess to raise his own son, among other things.
Seeing that Prince Yong didn't want to pay attention to her and his eyes were only on Princess Yong, Du Yufang bit her lip in indignation.
"I have been feeling discomfort in my lower abdomen since last night. I am worried that there may be something wrong with the baby."
Du Yufang looked at Ji Qingwu who was sitting beside the Luohan bed and said, "I heard that Miss Ji is also a doctor. Can you take a look at her?"
Zhao Minghong scolded: "What nonsense!"
Even the princess's pregnancy was secured by him, and yet Du Yufang dared to say this.
Ji Qingwu stood up and said nonchalantly: "Your stomach always hurts, maybe you have a difficult and complicated disease. Since the concubine has such a request, I will take a look at it for you."
