Chapter 123 The First Bird to Stick Out Gets Shot
Upon hearing this, the emperor subconsciously glanced at Xie Jingmo.
Thinking in my heart.
My beloved.
We can reward you with the money, but we can't touch the person.
The emperor was about to speak.
Concubine Yi smiled and sat down beside the emperor. She said softly, "Yun Zhao said I'm having twins. Isn't that enough to reward Imperial Physician Yun with a good marriage?"
The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this!
Before Xie Jingmo could blink, he heard the emperor excitedly say, "Reward! Reward!"
Concubine Yi curled her lips and smiled as she looked at Xie Jingmo in the audience. "Your Majesty, my brother Chang Heng has been in the palace recently. I thought of letting them meet each other. If they are satisfied with each other, it can be considered a good match."
Upon hearing this, the emperor nodded repeatedly.
Xie Jingmo said with a cold face, "Chang Heng is a well-known playboy in the capital. Yun Zhao will not like him."
Concubine Yi narrowed her eyes. "Is that so? The prince was also a playboy in the capital before, but now he is still successful and famous. Chang Heng has a bad temper, but that's because he hasn't met a good girl. Your Majesty, I think Yun Zhao is the good girl who can control Chang Heng."
Xie Jingmo looked indifferent.
After Concubine Yi left, Xie Jingmo looked at the emperor solemnly.
The emperor said cheerfully, "Alright, what are you angry about? Don't you want Lin Ruyu? As you wish, I will give her the status of a princess to match you. Concubine Yi has been childless for many years, and now she is being taken care of by Yun Zhao. Naturally, she is grateful. I gave Lin Ruyu the status of a princess to do you justice. Just raise your hand and don't embarrass Yun Zhao."
Xie Jingmo's face turned cold, "Chang Heng is not worthy of Yun Zhao."
"Then who is worthy?" the emperor said, "Only you?"
Xie Jingmo's face darkened. "Yun Zhao is very ambitious. She wants someone who can marry into the Yun family. How can Concubine Yi allow Chang Heng to marry into the family?"
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Yun Zhao is only a minor imperial physician now, but you'll see. Once the news of Concubine Yi's twins gets out, Yun Zhao will definitely become the imperial physician that the concubines in the harem will fight for. Rong Yuan is about to step down. With Yun Zhao's ability, it's not impossible for him to become the head of the Imperial Hospital in the future."
The Emperor straightened himself. "Being the head of the Imperial Hospital in the palace, what an honor! By then, let alone marrying into the Yun family's family, I think the Yun family's doorstep will be trampled down by others!"
Xie Jingmo's face became increasingly gloomy.
He knew that the emperor was telling the truth.
For women in the harem, having offspring is of utmost importance. Having a son can guarantee a lifetime of wealth and prosperity.
Concubine Yi had not been pregnant for ten years, and the entire harem knew about it.
Now that we have twins in one pregnancy, I wonder how many people will be jealous of us.
Today, Concubine Yi used the excuse of sending sweet soup to let her younger brother gain the opportunity to get along with Yun Zhao first.
One reason was that he really admired Yun Zhao's medical skills and wanted to win her over and take her under his wing, so even though he knew that he had a past with Yun Zhao, he still introduced Chang Heng to Yun Zhao.
In the palace, family interests have always been above everything else.
Second, Concubine Yi was interested in Yun Zhao's future career.
Yun Zhao is originally a woman, so she will be able to enter and leave the harem more easily in the future, which makes her much more suitable than those imperial doctors who are originally men.
In the harem, there will be many people who you want to win over in the future.
Xie Jingmo frowned and turned to leave.
The emperor then said, "If you want to go find Yun Zhao now, you won't be able to wait for him at Concubine Yi's place. You have to go to the Empress's place and wait."
Xie Jingmo frowned and turned around, "The Queen is already thirty years old, is it possible that she can still have children?"
The Emperor shook his head. "I'm not an imperial physician. How would I know this, you ask? I only know that if the Empress can conceive, then not only Concubine Yi's brother, but the Empress's brother as well. It shouldn't be impossible, right? Thank you, General?"
The emperor said this with a smile, and then saw Xie Jingmo rushing out.
The eunuch beside him whispered to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites is here to ask if Miss Lin Ruyu's title of Princess Xiluo will still be granted?"
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Let it go for now, there's no rush."
In the Queen's palace.
"Doctor Yun, are you sure Concubine Yi is pregnant with twins?"
Yun Zhao knelt on the ground and said, "Yes."
The queen's eyes darkened, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes!
"Concubine Yi is twenty-four years old now. Wouldn't it be too difficult for her to be pregnant with twins?" The Queen's tone was sharp.
Yun Zhao whispered, "Empress Yi is blessed with great fortune."
The Queen narrowed her eyes and spoke in a cold tone, "Is that so? Then do you think I am less blessed than Concubine Yi?"
Yun Zhao tightened his grip, "Your Majesty is the Queen, so naturally you have countless blessings, no one can match them."
The Queen curled her lips sarcastically, "Is that so? Then I'll trouble Imperial Physician Yun to examine me as well, so that I can also conceive twins."
"Hahaha—this is ridiculous!" Concubine Yi walked in and glanced at Yun Zhao lying on the ground. "Empress, is this someone deliberately trying to embarrass me? Don't you even consider your age? How dare you say you're pregnant?"
Yun Zhao was still kneeling, sighing inwardly.
When gods fight, innocent people suffer.
She is the fish.
The Queen was indeed furious, "Concubine Yi, don't take advantage of your pregnancy to act lawless!"
Concubine Yi was calm, "The Empress is in a serious state. Not only am I pregnant, I am also honored and favored by the Emperor. Do you have any?"
The Queen is so angry!
Before Concubine Yi was pregnant, she was not so arrogant.
Now that she has a child, she no longer takes her as the queen seriously!
"How outrageous!"
Concubine Yi touched the hairpin on her head, stood up, and said to Yun Zhao, who was still kneeling on the ground, "Why don't you leave now? Are you waiting for the Empress to invite you to dinner?"
Yun Zhao stood up, stepped back, and followed Concubine Yi out.
Behind.
"Empress, this Yun Zhaoxu is really capable. It's such an unfortunate coincidence that Concubine Yi is here."
The Queen narrowed her eyes. "Of course she came back. Now she keeps a close eye on Yun Zhao, afraid someone in the palace might snatch her away. How despicable! But I'm old enough to no longer think about getting pregnant. It's like this anyway. I just can't bear to see Concubine Yi so proud."
The maidservant beside her whispered to the Empress, "Your Majesty, you have your own blessings. How can you give up so easily? Didn't Imperial Physician Yun just take your pulse? Anyway, I'll ask her to give you a dose of medicine. You might as well try it."
The queen waved her hand and said, "Forget it. Chinese medicine is too bitter. I won't bother with it anymore. It's been so many years since I had a miscarriage and I haven't been able to get pregnant again. I don't want to dream about it anymore, so as not to be laughed at."
When Yun Zhao came out from Concubine Yi's place and went to the pharmacy, he met someone at the door.
She recognized her as the maidservant beside the queen.
She knew what the other party was here for, but she didn't point it out. She just said softly, "Auntie, come with me."
She wrote a prescription for the maid, and the maid left with a smile.
Before leaving, he said to Yun Zhao, "If it works, I will definitely come to thank Doctor Yun."
Yun Zhao didn't say anything. On the way back to Concubine Yi's palace, someone stopped her.
"The first bird to stick its head out gets shot, you know?"
"In this palace, those who stand out too much die quickly."
