The Legend of the Loved One

Chapter 62

In mid-March, the selection of Tai Hospital ended.

Early this morning, the doctor who came to Yufu Palace to ask for Chu Xue's pulse was changed again. After the imperial doctor finished taking the pulse, Chu Xue asked, "Dr. Ji Yuan is busy today? Isn't it because the Queen Mother is not feeling well?"

The kneeling imperial doctor hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, please don't worry, the Queen Mother is safe and sound. It's just that the new imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital this year officially entered the palace as an official servant. Dr. Ji Yuan is the envoy of the hospital and wants to give lectures to the newcomers, so I temporarily sent a humble minister here For your pulse."

"I see." Chu Xue nodded.

When the person came out of the palace gate, she told Ruyue, "Since the person is here, you can go over and have a look later when you have time, and ask your senior brother when he will be on duty, so we can do something about it."

"Yes." Kisaragi nodded.

So at noon, when most people were taking a break, Ruyue went to Tai Hospital.

The reason for Ru Yuexun today was still to find some medicinal materials to prepare skin care nectar for Chu Xue, but she knew that the imperial doctor who was usually in charge of this matter was not here at this time, so the medical girl led her to a new imperial doctor.

Seeing that figure she hadn't seen for a long time, Ruyue was very excited and almost called out his name, but she resisted, and when there were only two people left in the pharmacy, Ruyue said softly: "Senior brother, seeing you very nice!"

The gentle and elegant imperial doctor Cheng Zisong finally showed a smile, raised his hand to caress the top of the girl's head, and sighed softly: "Long time no see, you have grown a lot taller!"

Kisaragi smiled and nodded, she was only 12 years old when her senior brother left the mountain, compared to the yellow-haired little girl at that time, the quiet girl now has indeed grown up a lot.

Although it was noon, there were still other people in the Tai Hospital. Ruyue couldn't delay too long. After a few pleasantries, she got to the point and asked her senior brother about his on-duty status in the past month. After Cheng Zisong prepared the medicine, she went Say goodbye and go back to Yufu Palace.

One night a few days later, Chu Xue suddenly felt unwell before going to bed, and then she suffered from dizziness, followed by pale face and profuse sweating.

After a while, the young imperial doctor came with the maids of Yufu Palace. When he entered the palace, he saw the anxious emperor and saluted first, "I pay my respects to the emperor."

Song Chen raised his hand, and said in a slightly anxious tone, "No, go and see Concubine Yi."

"Yes." Cheng Zisong stood up and came to the inner hall.

Just like in the past, through the bed curtain, Chu Xue stretched out a hand, Hao Xue's arm was covered with tulle, and Cheng Zisong took the pulse attentively.

Cheng Zisong frowned for a moment, then Fang raised his hand and stood up to report to Song Chen, "Back to the emperor, the concubine Yi is suffering from dementia. It should be caused by physical weakness and she is in the late stage of pregnancy. It is not a serious problem. Wait for my minister to do it." It can be relieved after acupuncture."

"Okay, okay." Hearing that Chu Xue was fine, Song Chen was finally relieved and asked Cheng Zisong to treat her.

Cheng Zisong took out a few thin silver needles from the medicine box, and started acupuncture on several acupuncture points on Chu Xue's arm. After about two quarters of an hour, her cold sweat disappeared, and her face gradually turned rosy.Cheng Zisong retracted the needle and said to Chu Xue: "Your Majesty is about to give birth. For the rest of the month, you should supplement your nutrition and store up your energy to prepare for the delivery. I will write a prescription later. Your Majesty will take it once a day. After five days, I believe that your physical strength will improve." It's getting better."

Chu Xue smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Thanks for your trouble, I am lucky to have you tonight, otherwise I don't know if I will hurt the baby in my belly."

Cheng Zisong bowed his head and said respectfully: "It's the hospital's job to keep the master safe, and your empress is serious."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Song Chen, "I will go back and prepare the medicine for the empress, and I will take my leave first."

Song Chen saw that he acted calmly and had good medical skills, so he immediately felt a lot of affection, and said slowly, "Go quickly."

"Yes."

Ruyue made an excuse to get the medicine, and followed them out together.

The night was dark, there was no one around the palace walls, after walking out for a while, Ruyue whispered, "Brother, do you think my acupuncture technique has improved?"

Cheng Zisong looked back at her, with slightly curved eyebrows, and said: "It's not bad, it seems that the master's teaching has not fallen behind in the past few years."

"Thank you, brother!"

Kisaragi, who has always been quiet and introverted, rarely showed a sweet smile.

In fact, Chu Xue's "discomfort" tonight was planned by several people in advance.According to Ru Yuezhao's instructions, first inquire about Cheng Zisong's recent evening shifts, and then give Chu Xue an injection before Song Chen came over, causing her to temporarily show signs of fainting in front of Song Chen, and then "just happen" to act The worthy Cheng Zisong came to explain, the purpose is to let Cheng Zisong show off his medical skills in front of Song Chen, so that he can successfully become Chu Xue's exclusive imperial doctor.

Now that their roles have been completed, it's up to the beauties and the king in Yufu Palace.

Yanling brought a bowl of ginger tea and said softly: "Master, this is tea brewed according to the imperial doctor's method. You should drink a bowl first."

Chu Xue wanted to sit up, but because her belly was too big, her movements were a little clumsy, Song Chen hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and when she sat still, he took the porcelain bowl from Yanling's hand and fed her himself.

Seeing the man's delicate movements, Chu Xue repeated a smile on her ruddy face, but she didn't speak. She just cooperated with him and drank the hot tea in one gulp.

"Is it better?" Song Chen asked after putting down the bowl.

He frowned slightly, and there was still worry in his eyes. She nodded and said softly: "The concubine is much better, the emperor doesn't have to worry."

"How can I not be worried? The way you looked just now is really scary." He raised his hand and stroked her newly rosy face.

She also touched his eyebrows with her slender fingers, and said guiltily: "The concubine didn't intend to scare the emperor just now, it was really uncomfortable, but the imperial doctor's acupuncture method is very effective, and it is really much better now."

He sighed and said: "Isn't there an imperial doctor who comes to take your pulse every day? Why don't you notice your weakness? What do these people in Tai Hospital do?"

She quickly shook her head, "Your Majesty, please don't blame the Imperial Hospital. They do ask for pulses on time every day. It's just that Imperial Physician Ji Yuan is the envoy of the hospital and has to go to Funing Palace. Sometimes he catches up with the Imperial Hospital. If you are busy, someone else will come in, maybe every doctor has a different method, and the handover is not done well..."

The person who asks for pulse is not fixed, which is really inconvenient, Song Chen thought for a while, and said: "How about, I will pick someone from the Imperial Hospital for you to take care of your palace affairs."

She pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement, "That's fine, the concubines feel a little sorry for those who have to work for the Empress Dowager every day! But, I wonder if there are enough people in the Empress Dowager Hospital?"

Song Chen denied her worry, "Don't worry about this, the Imperial Hospital only recruited a group of people this spring... I saw that the one just now was pretty good, it looks calm enough, and the needle technique is also skilled, what do you think?"

Chu Xue didn't answer the question right away, but acted like she was thinking about it, and then nodded after thinking for a while, "I also think he's pretty good, just a few light injections, and my body is much better immediately."

"Then I will send someone to preach the decree tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Liangxi who was standing behind him, Liangxi immediately understood, bowed and said, "My servant will do it tomorrow morning."

The beauty on the bed smiled, lowered her eyes and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

As soon as the hour of the second day arrived, Liangxi personally went to the imperial hospital to pass on the sage's oracle, so Cheng Zisong, who had only been employed for less than half a month, successfully became the most favored Concubine Yufu Gong Yifei under the envious eyes of a group of colleagues. Professional physician.

The days have entered April unknowingly, and the capital is already in early summer. Seeing that the day of giving birth is approaching, Chu Xue is both looking forward to and apprehensive.

What I look forward to is that I can finally meet the child in my stomach, and what I am anxious about is the matter of giving birth.

She had always heard that it was very painful, but she didn't know the extent of the pain. When Li Jiaoyun came to see her, she asked her for advice. Li Jiaoyun smiled and cheered her up, "Of course it hurts, but it's not unbearable. Since ancient times, no woman has been able to go through that experience, but almost everyone survived it. When I gave birth to Qi, I suffered from pain for two days and two nights, and finally lost all strength. In the end, I gave birth to him safely. Come down?" Li Jiaoyun patted her hand and comforted her: "Now there are so many imperial doctors with excellent medical skills in the palace, and there are quite a few Wen Po, sister, don't worry! Besides, you don't have a big stomach, so you should be fine. Very good."

Not too old?She looked at her belly that was round like a watermelon in the mirror, and still sighed.

But after sighing, she also thought about it, now with Ruyue and Cheng Zisong as a doctor with superb medical skills by her side, the mother and child will be safe.

I don’t know if it’s because one body can’t bear the load of two people. As May is approaching day by day, Chu Xue is getting tired gradually. The rest after lunch is often not enough for an hour, and the symptoms of lethargy seem to return all at once. When I was first pregnant.

Ruyue faintly felt that something was wrong, and Cheng Zisong felt it was even more strange, but the daily pulse-taking seemed to be unable to find out anything, so he could only write more medicinal recipes for her to refresh her mind, and find supplements for her from diet.

But as the days went by, the supplements she had taken hadn't diminished, but her energy hadn't improved much. Cheng Zisong's doubts became more and more serious, and he went to the imperial hospital to read medical books all day long, hoping to find the reason for her condition.

The hard work paid off, and Cheng Zisong finally found a breakthrough in the problem after the No. 12 day when Chu Xue developed lethargy symptoms.

This day, Cheng Zisong took a lot more time to ask her for her pulse. Usually half a cup of tea would be enough, but today it dragged on for nearly a quarter of an hour. Chu Xue was puzzled, and when she was about to ask, Cheng Zisong said solemnly, He said to her: "Mother, I suspect that there is something strange in your body. In order to prove it, I need to borrow your blood. I don't know if my empress will allow it?"

Chu Xue was startled.

Because they were afraid that she would be worried, Ruyue and Cheng Zisong, brothers and sisters, never disclosed to her about her lethargy or strangeness. When they heard about her at this moment, she couldn't help being frightened.But she understood that Cheng Zisong acted calmly and would not speak rashly easily, so now that he said this, he must have some confidence...

She nodded and said, "Do it your way."

Cheng Zisong was ordered, took out the special silver needle from the medical box, and pricked it lightly on her hand. Following the pain, blood overflowed from her fingertips. Cheng Zisong carefully took it out with white gauze, and only wanted to observe it for a day. Then he quit the gate of the palace.

Although Chu Xue was worried, she patiently waited for his news.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, Cheng Zisong hurried back with the gauze from which the blood was taken last night, and solemnly said to her, "Your Majesty, you have been poisoned by a rare poison."

Although a day later, she made some preparations, but when she heard such words at first, she was still shocked, and the ordinary Ruyue also frowned, and asked on her behalf: "Senior brother, are you sure?"

Cheng Zisong nodded, and said three words, "Qi Mian San."
