Chapter 159

Song Yunqian spent more time in Concubine Rou's Palace, and used to have meals in Caiwei Palace, but since the big quarrel, he never set foot in Caiwei Palace again.

Wen Yi was already disheartened, and this kind of torture seemed particularly long in the palace, so she could only persevere and wait for the cause of Chen Yuzhu's death to be revealed.

Lu Ning would send some news from time to time, but there was no breakthrough in the news, but Wen Yi felt a little strange that Concubine Rou seemed to be getting closer to Ke'er.Or in other words, it was Ke'er who took the initiative to get closer to Concubine Rou.

Concubine Rou's health has improved a lot, and Wen Yi advised her to exercise more and eat a balanced diet, so she is basically fine.But this day the news came that Piaoxu Palace had invited an imperial doctor, saying that Concubine Rou was in poor health again.

Wen Yi became wary, and she came to Piaoxu Palace in person.As soon as the imperial doctor left, there was a scent of medicine in the palace, Wen Yi quietly sniffed it, the smell of Aiye Sang parasitic donkey-hide gelatin, Wen Yi's heart sank, if she guessed correctly, it should be the medicine to prevent miscarriage.Concubine Rou is pregnant?

As soon as she went in, Xiao Qing came out to greet her, gave Wen Yi a complicated look, and said softly, "Doctor Wen, you're here!"

Concubine Rou was lying on the imperial concubine's couch, when she heard the sound, she turned her head, and there was a trace of panic in her expression.

Looking at her expression, Wen Yi understood most of it in her heart, so she put on a smile and said, "Concubine Rou, I heard that you have passed the imperial doctor, are you alright?"

Concubine Rou got up and said softly: "Thank you Doctor Wen for your concern, I'm fine!"

Wen Yi sniffed the smell of medicine in the air, which made her stomach churn, and she sighed softly in her heart. When they were in good company, she always wanted to conceive his child, but failed. In just one month, Concubine Rou became pregnant.

What does it feel like for other women to conceive and bear children for the men they love so much?Wen Yi never thought about it before.Now, they have to bear this kind of post-suffering pain abruptly, and they have to pretend that nothing happened, show a smiling face, and wait for others to say congratulations when they announce the good news.

Wen Yi took Concubine Rou's hand and sat down, and asked, "How long has it been?"

Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, then she burst into a flowery smile and said: "The imperial doctor just confirmed that she is pregnant!"

"Congratulations!" Wen Yiyan said insincerely, a kind of pain overflowed from the bottom of her heart, gradually eroding her already silent heart.

"Thank you!" Concubine Rou looked at her cautiously, "Doctor Wen won't blame Ben Gong?"

Wen Yi smiled, "How do you say that? You are the emperor's concubine, and it is only natural to conceive and have children for him. How could I blame you? Besides, what right do I have to blame you?"

Concubine Rou smiled embarrassingly, "It's just that Dr. Wen and the emperor are in love with each other first, so I always feel sorry for Dr. Wen!"

Wen Yi shook her head, and said bitterly: "No, when I knew him, you had already made love for the future, and I was the extra person!"

Concubine Rou smiled gently, she had a happy expression on her face, and her eyes were full of joy. A pregnant woman, future mother, and a happy wife were once her pursuit.

I really can't look at her bright smile anymore, otherwise, she will die of sadness because of it.

She left in a hurry, "I remembered that there are still some things to do, so let's go first, you pay attention to your health, so that you can have a safe pregnancy!"

Concubine Rou hurriedly said to Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, send Doctor Wen out!"

Xiaoqing responded and said to Wen Yi: "Doctor Wen, go slowly!"

She sent Wen Yi out to the palace gate, and suddenly stretched out her hand to tug on Wen Yi's sleeve, Wen Yi turned her head in surprise, seeing that Xiao Qing's eyes were complicated, as if she had something to say, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoqing sighed slightly, and said: "Concubine Rou is actually very pitiful, Doctor Wen just needs to be considerate!"

Wen Yi stared at Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing met Wen Yi's eyes and settled down, but her eyes were a little avoiding.

Wen Yi suddenly became suspicious, and asked, "What do you mean by that? Why is Concubine Rou so pitiful?"

Xiaoqing said softly: "Your servant should not talk too much, but please ask Dr. Wen to take care of Concubine Rou more!"

Shouldn't I say more?Wen Yi was about to ask, but heard the eunuch outside the palace shout loudly: "The emperor is here!"

Xiaoqing's expression changed, and she returned to her usual obedience, and said, "Doctor Wen, go slowly!"

Wen Yi knew that she was determined not to say any more at this moment, so she could only ask later, she didn't want to meet Song Yunqian face to face, and wanted to leave through the side door, but just as her mind turned like this, familiar footsteps came, A bright yellow figure entered the gate of Piaoxu Palace.

Wen Yi lowered her head and blessed her body: "See Your Majesty!"

Song Yunqian came to her side, saw that she looked so indifferent, and said indifferently: "You are here!"

"Yes!" Wen Yi replied respectfully, adhering to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers.

"Leave now?" Song Yunqian hadn't seen her for several days, and he missed her very much, but at this juncture, he had to calm down and treat her.

"Yes!" Wen Yi still didn't say a word.

"Well, let's go!" Song Yunqian said lightly.

Feeling warm and blessed, he walked outside the palace.

Zhong was outside the hall, when he saw Wen Yi coming out, he shouted: "Doctor Wen!"

Wen Yi was a little dazed, and when she heard someone calling her, she suddenly raised her head, just in time to meet Zhong Zheng's worried eyes, "Uh, it's Eunuch Zhong!"

Zhong Zheng said with some concern: "Doctor Wen's complexion seems to be a little bad, is it because he is not happy?"

Wen Yi shook her head, "No, it's fine, then, father-in-law just wait here, I'm leaving!" There were tears in her heart that were about to flood, she didn't want to stay here for a long time, she just wanted to find a place where she could have a good rest Feel free to grieve.

Zhong Zhengdao: "Do not worry too much, Doctor Wen, everything will come to fruition!"

Wen Yi nodded indiscriminately, without delving into the meaning of Zhong Zheng's words, she hurried away.

The news of Concubine Rou's pregnancy completely disrupted Wen Yi's mood.This incident spread quickly in the harem. Although the empress dowager was a little surprised, she was also very happy. She rewarded many things and ordered Shangguan's imperial doctor to be good for Concubine Rou's pregnancy.

Concubine Ling Gui also personally sent the fetus-protecting prescription, and after being seen by the imperial doctor of the Shangguan, it was confirmed that it was indeed a good prescription, so she also recommended Concubine Rou to take it.

Ke'er approached Wen Yi once during this period, her tone was eccentric, and she spoke a lot of sarcasm, Wen Yi pretended she couldn't hear her, and sent her out after saying a few words.

Wen Yi didn't feel divorced, on the contrary, she began to feel that everything was too unusual.

The emperor asked Zhu Fangyuan to set up defense against the Piaoxu Palace, and no idlers were allowed to enter.Zhu Fangyuan naturally obeyed, and Zhu Fangyuan began to avoid Wen Yi. Wen Yi ordered people to look for him several times, but he always said that he was not free and would come to see Wen Yi another day.

Wen Yi seemed to be isolated by others. After Qian Shan left the palace, he never came back, and no news came back.Wen Yi began to feel that something was wrong, and she couldn't tell what was wrong.That's all for others, but it is absolutely impossible for Qian Shan to leave the palace without news for several days.

Also, Wen Yi found out that Lu Ning was also missing today. In the past, he would always show up at Caiwei Palace, lead the guards to patrol for a while, and then left for Yongming Palace, but today he didn't even see anyone.

Wen Yi knew that something must have happened that she didn't know about, and the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger.She finally couldn't hold back any longer and changed her clothes to go out of the palace.

Wan Niang stopped her, "Master, don't go out!"

Looking at Wan Niang's expression, Wen Yi knew in her heart that Wan Niang must also know something, and asked anxiously, "What happened? Did something happen to Qianshan?"

Wan Niang was silent for a while, and said: "Yes, Miss Qianshan has acne, and now she is in the Sikong Mansion, the emperor ordered not to tell the master!"

"It's so good, why did you get acne?" Wen Yi was taken aback, she knew that smallpox is an incurable disease in this era, and people who have smallpox are generally quarantined, and even doctors dare not go in to see it.Smallpox has been extinct in China in the future world, and human beings have found a way to conquer smallpox, but here, smallpox is still a terminal disease that makes people blush.Once terminal illness is related to infection, it will be even more shocking.

"I don't know. At first, I just had a fever and my throat was uncomfortable. Later, I invited a doctor and treated him for two days, but the situation got worse. Lord Sikong later went to the palace to ask for an imperial doctor, who was diagnosed with acne. The emperor immediately ordered the news to be blocked. No one is allowed to know. The master should understand that once someone in Beijing is found to have acne, the source of the infection must be killed, and the corpse must be burned, and even those who have been in contact with the acne patient must be quarantined or killed, for fear of causing a catastrophe. Widespread infection." Wan Niang said worriedly.

In other words, once the news of Qianshan's smallpox spread, the people from Caiwei Palace would either be killed or sent to the isolation island.

In addition, Concubine Rou was pregnant at this time, in order to avoid infecting the future prince or mother, the minister would definitely write a letter requesting to send Wen Yi to the isolation island.

Knowing about Qian Shan's situation, how could Wen Yi sit still?But she also knew that Wan Niang would never let her go out, because no matter in anyone's heart, smallpox is a terrible disease. She would never let Wen Yi go out, for fear that Wen Yi would be infected.

She stepped back, took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and asked, "Did Lu Ning go to see her today?"

Wan Niang said with a sad face, "He's already back, and the people of Sikong Mansion won't let him in at all."

Wen Yi gasped, it seemed that the situation was already serious.She was extremely anxious, the incubation period of smallpox was about ten days, the onset was very urgent, and it was highly contagious, Qian Shan had only been out of the palace for six days, and she had been sick for two days, which meant that she might have been infected when she was in the palace up.

How could there be smallpox in the palace?Impossible, if there is smallpox in the palace, she, Wan Niang and everyone in Caiwei Palace will be infected, but they have no symptoms yet.

"You ask Lu Ning to come over, I want to ask clearly!" Wen Yi fidgeted and said to Wan Niang.

Wan Niang said in embarrassment: "Master Lu is currently in the imperial study. He said he wants to ask the emperor to let the imperial doctor see Qianshan. I am afraid that the emperor will not agree easily. After all, the diagnosis is confirmed, and the imperial doctor is determined not to go again. Everyone is afraid of this disease."

"If the emperor gives an order, the imperial doctor might not be able to disobey it, right? Besides, how can a doctor care so much?" Wen Yi said disapprovingly.

Wan Niang said helplessly: "The emperor can't issue such an order, otherwise, if the imperial doctor complains and the matter leaks out, the Sikong family and even our Caiwei palace will be implicated."

Wen Yi's face was heavy, she couldn't just watch Qian Shan die, she had to leave the palace.It's just that she couldn't let Wan Niang know her thoughts at the moment, so she hid her worry and sighed: "In this case, I only hope that she can make it through!"

The mortality rate of smallpox is very high. Without drugs and doctors, there is basically no way to survive. This is something everyone knows.After hearing Wen Yi's words, Wan Niang also sighed helplessly: "Yes, I can only hope for this!"
