"What's wrong?" Noticing her unusual behavior, Gu Linchao squeezed her fingers and asked gently.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I'm just happy for His Highness," Wen Nongnong said, perking up. "By the way, is the prescription okay? Did you have Physician Lin examine it?"
"Yes, the prescription is with Physician Lin. Once it's confirmed that there are no problems, he will begin preparing the antidote," Gu Linchao explained.
"Then let's hurry back." Wen Nongnong was a little impatient. Even if Gu Linchao regained his sight and saw her ugly pregnant appearance later, she didn't care.
"No rush. Physician Lin needs time to examine the prescription and prepare the antidote; it won't be that quick," Gu Linchao said.
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong suppressed her emotions and said, "That makes sense."
...
It was already evening when they returned to the Prince's Mansion.
The servants, unaware of the situation, were startled to see Wen Nongnong enter arm in arm with Gu Linchao.
The princess is already...
"I'm not dead, everyone don't need to be afraid." Wen Nongnong saw what everyone was thinking and quickly spoke up to reassure them.
Upon hearing this, the servants breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down to pay their respects.
"Get up, everyone." Wen Nongnong raised her hand slightly, then followed Gu Linchao directly to Physician Lin.
When the two entered, Physician Lin was examining the medicinal herbs on the prescription.
Because a large number of medicinal materials were needed, and no carelessness was allowed, Physician Lin did not rest all day.
Upon seeing the two enter, he greeted them and then bent down to inspect them again.
Seeing this, the two did not disturb them further.
"It seems Physician Lin hasn't finished his examination yet. Let's go back first." Wen Nongnong took Gu Linchao's hand and walked out.
Physician Lin noticed this and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, I will be able to complete the examination by tomorrow at the latest."
"Alright, no rush. Physician Lin, please examine me slowly and don't overwork yourself. Remember to rest. If you need anything, just let me know," Wen Nongnong said gently. Since the prescription was already in hand, there was no need to rush.
"This old minister understands." Imperial Physician Lin nodded.
...
Just as Physician Lin himself had said, he checked the prescription the next day and confirmed that there was no problem with it.
However, the medicinal materials needed to prepare the antidote are of many kinds, and it is not possible to prepare them all in a short time.
Fortunately, the medicinal materials needed are not rare.
"Your Highness, give me three days. I guarantee I will gather all the necessary medicinal herbs and prepare the antidote," Physician Lin said confidently.
"Thank you for your help, Physician Lin." Gu Linchao nodded.
"Then this old minister will go and prepare the medicinal herbs," said Physician Lin.
"good."
After Physician Lin left, Wen Nongnong was very excited.
"Your Highness, if nothing unexpected happens, your eyesight will be restored in three days. Aren't you happy?"
Gu Linchao didn't speak, but instead cupped her face and lowered his head to rest his forehead on hers.
He was naturally happy.
He hadn't seen Nong Nong for a long time.
Wen Nongnong, as if on cue, rubbed her face against his palm. "Is Your Highness so eager to see me? But don't think too highly of me, I've become ugly since I got pregnant..."
Gu Linchao chuckled, but still comforted him, "No, don't overthink it."
"But I think I've become uglier," Wen Nongnong said, touching her face with some distress.
Although she doesn't actually develop pregnancy spots, she still feels she doesn't look as good as she used to.
Upon hearing this, Gu Linchao touched her smooth face and said with a smile, "That's just what you think. Be obedient and don't overthink it."
"Alright." Wen Nongnong pouted, then said seriously, "I want the Prince to see me first."
"Okay," Gu Linchao agreed with a smile.
...
Since becoming pregnant, Wen Nong has become increasingly sleepy, sleeping until late morning every day.
He had just woken up that day when he heard that Lu Yingying was about to give birth.
She was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was about to become an aunt. She was both excited and thrilled. She quickly dressed and took Lü Qiao to the Wen residence, but was stopped by Mama Ding.
"Miss, you are pregnant now, so please don't go. It's not too late to go after the Princess Consort gives birth."
Wen Nongnong knew her good intentions, but still said, "I'm not that delicate, I won't be scared by the spectacle of childbirth. Besides, since my sister-in-law is about to give birth, I should go and see her."
Mrs. Ding shook her head. "Madam instructed that you should not go there."
Seeing this, Lü Qiao also tried to dissuade her, "Miss, please listen to Mama Ding's advice. You are not the same as usual right now. I also think it's best not to go over there."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong said somewhat reluctantly, "Alright, alright, then Lüqiao, go and take a look for me, and report back to me as soon as you have any news."
Lü Qiao immediately agreed, "I'll go take a look right away."
"Go quickly." Wen Nongnong was worried about Lu Yingying, but she couldn't go to see her herself, so she was quite anxious.
She could ignore Ding's mother and Lü Qiao's advice and insist on going to see, but she knew in her heart that she was actually afraid of the scene of childbirth.
Of course, she hadn't experienced it herself; she had only seen it on television or on film sets.
Although she knew it was fake, the heart-wrenching scene still left her with a deep-seated trauma.
Normally, she could grit her teeth and get through it, but now that she was pregnant, she was worried that if she got scared, it would affect the fetus and be bad for the baby. So even though she was worried about Lu Yingying, she could only suppress her feelings.
"Oh, and please invite Physician Lin over as well. He can be of help in case of any emergencies," she quickly added.
