Chapter 29 Doctor Jin
Miaoyun carefully led Doctor Jin into Xiyan Palace. When she first saw Doctor Jin's face, she couldn't help but be shocked.
I never expected that Doctor Jin was actually Li Jing!
Su Jingyao sat quietly on the couch, one hand lazily supporting the soft pillow, and her autumn-water eyes looked at Miaoyun indifferently.
Miaoyun noticed her look and quickly took everyone away.
Li Jing stepped forward slowly and said respectfully, "Your humble servant greets the Concubine."
As soon as the words fell, a crisp "pop" sound broke the silence in the hall.
Su Jingyao's eyes radiated a bone-chilling chill. She suddenly raised her hand and slapped him fiercely.
The movements were swift and furious.
Li Jing endured her slap without tilting his head, as if he had expected her to be so angry.
He knelt there, like a statue, motionless.
"Next time the master gets angry, I can hit myself without hurting the master's hand."
Li Jing's voice was low and calm, as if he was telling a very ordinary thing.
There was not a trace of pain or grievance on his face.
Li Jing looked at her slightly red hands and felt a pain in his heart. She was petite and delicate, and if she slapped him, his hand would hurt even more.
Su Jingyao ignored him.
Did he know how much risk his entering the palace would bring to her?
If Jun Zechen discovered their connection, it would be a disaster for her.
"I have received news that my master is pregnant. The harem is dangerous. I entered the palace just to help you."
Li Jing raised his head and looked at her firmly, with a deep obsession in his eyes, as if he could penetrate all obstacles and reach deep into her heart.
"Help me? You make money outside and make medicine for me, that's helping me! If you go to the palace now and someone catches us, you will be my biggest death warrant!"
Su Jingyao's voice was low and suppressed, as if she was squeezing these words out from between her teeth, and every word contained her anger and chillness.
His eyes were as cold as ice, staring at Li Jing intently, making people shudder, as if they could freeze people instantly.
"Master, Li Jing's identity has been perfectly disguised. Li Jing will definitely not bring any trouble to you."
Li Jing's voice was firm. He slowly raised his head and looked directly at Su Jingyao, his eyes revealing an unquestionable determination.
Su Jingyao looked at him coldly, "If you are exposed, I will kill you myself."
She was not a good person. Saving him was an accident. Since he wanted to follow her, he had to accept her cruelty.
"Master, don't dirty your hands. If Li Jing brings trouble to you, I will solve it myself."
Li Jing's tone remained firm, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.
The reason why Su Jingyao was so angry was that Li Jing entered the palace without informing her in advance, leaving her unprepared and forced to accept it.
If it weren't for the fact that the juice that Doctor Li brought yesterday had the flavor of the tonic he prepared for her all year round, her tonic would have had a special, unusual and extremely difficult to detect flavor made by Li Jing.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have known that there was a new imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital, and it was him.
Su Jingyao calmed down the anger in her heart.
Now that I've entered the palace, there's no turning back.
Li Jing is an excellent doctor, and having a royal physician in the palace whom she can completely trust can indeed help her reduce a lot of trouble.
But Jun Zechen is the male protagonist, ruthless, and powerful. If he becomes suspicious and really wants to investigate Li Jing, he may not be able to keep it secret completely.
It still depends on her to act, and she must not let Jun Zechen have any suspicion towards her.
Su Jingyao narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking secretly in her heart, and the expression on her face became more and more solemn.
"Come here, let me feel her pulse and see if I can tell if she's a prince or a princess."
Su Jingyao pursed her red lips, placed her hands on the table, and gently rested her fingers on the table, shaking them slightly.
Li Jing heard it, bent down and walked over.
He came to Su Jingyao's side, slowly squatted down, stretched out his hand, gently placed it on her wrist, and began to take her pulse.
"Master is very lucky, this baby is a prince."
"Master, your annual physical care makes it very easy for you to get pregnant. After you give birth to the prince, I will continue to prepare contraceptive pills for you. Not only can they prevent pregnancy, but they can also quickly restore your weak body after giving birth."
Li Jing's voice was low and gentle. As he spoke, he concentrated on feeling Su Jingyao's pulse, his eyes full of concern and determination.
Hearing what he said, Su Jingyao raised her chin slightly, and a satisfied smile finally appeared on her just cold face, as warm as a spring breeze.
Then she nonchalantly instructed Li Jing with a casual tone.
"If there is a chance, I will get the Crown Princess' medical records from the Imperial Hospital and find out why she has been infertile for many years."
"Master, I have secretly read the Crown Princess' medical records since I came to the Imperial Hospital."
"The Crown Princess should have a constitution that makes it extremely difficult for her to conceive. Although I have not checked her pulse, from the medical records, there is nothing wrong with her body, but her menstruation is extremely unstable and irregular. It should be a natural problem."
Li Jing raised his head slightly and looked at Su Jingyao. A hint of thought flashed across his eyes, and he reported to Su Jingyao in detail what he knew.
Su Jingyao lowered her eyes, a hint of thought flashed across her eyes, revealing a bit of doubt.
Could it be because the original novel defines the heroine as someone who cannot get pregnant?
So Ling Yue can't be sad?
After all, her tragic love affair with the male protagonist is because she can't get pregnant.
Oh, that's terrible.
"Yes, I understand."
Su Jingyao nodded gently, and then instructed: "When the Crown Prince is in Xiyan Palace, remember to avoid suspicion. It is best not to show your face in front of the Crown Prince."
There was a hint of seriousness in her voice.
Li Jing and Jun Zechen are about the same age, and both have good-looking faces, with the appearance of gentlemen who are as gentle as jade.
If Jun Zechen saw a young imperial physician often in her palace, he would always pay some attention to him.
Moreover, men like Jun Zechen have a terrifying possessiveness over women.
Yesterday, it was because she mentioned it casually that Jun Zechen asked for Li Jing even though he had never met Li Jing before.
If Jun Zechen had met Li Jing, he might have tried to transfer him away.
Therefore, it is better for Li Jing not to meet the prince.
Li Jing knew what Su Jingyao was thinking and nodded slightly, "Yes, Master."
"Don't call me master in the palace." Su Jingyao said softly, with a casual tone.
It was just an accident when she saved him.
Because of her childhood experiences, Li Jing had always been extremely humble in her heart. She called her "Miss" at first, but later, after helping her run the business, she began to call her "Master".
Su Jingyao didn't care about these titles and never tried to discipline him, letting him call her whatever he wanted, but that was not allowed in the palace.
When Li Jing heard this, his eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he said softly: "Yes, Concubine."
In his heart, the reason why he called her Master was because he had false thoughts about her.
But he knew very well that he was of humble status and was not worthy of her at all.
So the title of master, to Li Jing, meant that he belonged to her.
"Back off."
Su Jingyao waved her hand gently, signaling him to leave.
Li Jing slowly retreated, and after he left, Miaoyun, Miaoxia, Miaoyue and Miaoxue walked in one after another.
Miaoxia saw Su Jingyao's red hands and hurried to the dressing table to get a bottle of ointment.
She opened the jar carefully, dipped some ointment gently, and applied it softly.
Miao Yue stood beside Su Jingyao and asked softly, "Master, since Imperial Physician Jin is here, should we be on guard against the pregnancy of other women in the East Palace?"
Su Jingyao leaned lazily on the couch, with her hands casually placed on the table, allowing Miaoxia to apply ointment on her.
She said nonchalantly: "No need. It's their luck if they get pregnant." There was a hint of indifference and disdain in her tone.
After Jun Zechen becomes the emperor, he will definitely have more than one prince born to him, and she doesn't plan to give birth to them one after another, so there is no need to be on guard now.
So what if she is born? As long as she blocks the way for her son, she will be killed.
A cold look flashed across Su Jingyao's face, and her eyes revealed a hint of determination and ruthlessness, but she quickly returned to normal.
"What is the situation now after the Crown Princess was released from the ban?"
After Miaoxia applied the ointment evenly, Su Jingyao slowly withdrew her hand.
Gently play with the warm and smooth jade in your hand.
This jade was recently sent by Jun Zechen. It is extremely delicate and of high quality. She always likes to play with it in her hands.
"After the Crown Princess was released from her confinement, her temper has calmed down a lot. The Crown Prince still treats her the same as before. She often goes to either our Xiyan Palace or Qiluan Palace."
Miaoxia was paying attention to Su Jingyao's expression as she spoke.
"But I heard that,"
There was an obvious look of schadenfreude on Miaoyun's face. She raised her chin slightly and her tone of voice also rose slightly, with a hint of pride.
"Even if His Highness went to visit other newlyweds, he would not stay overnight and would go back to Yude Hall to sleep."
Miaoyun had always been worried that her master could not serve the prince because of her pregnancy, and that the prince would be seduced away by other women.
Now it seems that the master still has some weight in His Highness' heart.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never favored his master in Xiyan Palace and then just left.
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of teasing and mockery in her eyes.
Jun Zechen doesn't think that he has been defiled by touching other women, does he?
He wouldn't think that he was the one who was wronged because he touched other women, right?
If he really had such an idea, Su Jingyao would really laugh out loud.
She was extremely curious now. What did Emperor Jing Sheng say to Jun Zechen that could change his mind of being extremely resistant to women from aristocratic families?
Ever since Jun Zechen first realized that he liked Ling Yue, he didn't want to touch other women.
Su Jingyao saw through Jun Zechen's inner struggles at a glance.
Jun Zechen doesn't like to touch women he doesn't like. Once he touches them, he feels unclean.
Just like when Jun Zechen was so angry because he thought the empress had drugged him and he touched her, this was probably the reason.
Therefore, Su Jingyao has been calculating Jun Zechen's initiative. The changes in the relationship between her and Jun Zechen have always been the result of Jun Zechen's inability to control his heart.
In this relationship, the only innocent person is Su Jingyao.
