The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Doctor Mao was quickly summoned to Xihe Palace, but Zhuang Luoyan was a little surprised when he diagnosed the Ximai.

"Are you sure?" Zhuang Luoyan withdrew her hand, looked at the wrinkled old face of Doctor Mao, took a sip of the honey tea from Ting Zhu, "I hope Doctor Mao won't make a mistake this time."

Hearing this, Imperial Physician Mao felt a chill in his heart, and his whole body felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. Concubine Zhao knew that the slippery pulse detected last time was a misdiagnosis. Doctor Mao felt that he couldn't breathe. This is a positive and powerful master. The most frightening thing is that such a frightening woman is actually beautiful in the eyes of others, which shows her deep scheming.

Zhuang Luoyan looked at the sweat on Mao's face with a smile: "It seems that today is a bit hot, and Mao is getting old. It is really hard work for so many masters in the palace these years. I heard you The old grandson is quite accomplished in medicine, if he can enter the imperial hospital to take over your mantle, the Mao family can be regarded as a family above the medical profession."

Don't look at the novels, but all capable doctors don't like to go to the Tai Hospital, and those who stay in the Tai Hospital are full of wine and food. In reality, it is quite different from the novel. If you don’t see it, it will make people feel a bit more high-end if it is linked to a certain country’s institution.

Therefore, being able to enter the Imperial Hospital is the recognition of a person's medical skills, because the imperial doctors and imperial doctors and female doctors of the Imperial Hospital all serve the royal family and high-ranking officials, so entering the Imperial Hospital requires passing five tests and cutting five generals, discussing medical skills , In terms of innocence, in terms of demeanor and morality, the so-called doctor heals life, which ruling class dares to joke about its own life?

Doctor Mao's heart trembled, he understood Concubine Zhao's meaning, and kowtowed immediately: "My minister kowtows to thank you for your kindness."

Putting down the jasper lotus leaf teacup, Zhuang Luoyan smiled, "My palace is only a concubine, so how can I afford the word grace. Doctor Mao is too serious."

Doctor Mao raised his head and glanced at Zhuang Luoyan, then kowtowed again: "My minister made a mistake."

"You don't have to be like this." Zhuang Luoyan looked at the gray beard of the magistrate Mao, and waved his hands: "Retire, and I will take my pulse in the future."

Doctor Mao knew that Concubine Zhao wanted him to wholeheartedly preserve the fetus for her, and now that the status quo did not allow her to think about it, he made a big gift and withdrew.

Seeing that Dr. Mao retreated, Tingzhu said worriedly: "Master, the pulse condition is only a month old now, and the fetus is not stable yet. Do you want to cover it up? The servant is worried..."

"What's the use of covering up?" Zhuang Luoyan stood up nonchalantly, "It's not that there are lessons learned from the past, so what will happen to the covering up in the end?"

Looking down at the flat belly, she just wants to make a big gamble, betting that the emperor really wants this child, and Emperor Chengxuan is not a faint emperor who is controlled by the harem. If he really wants a certain woman's mother and child to be safe, there will be no so many accidents. Unless her body is really disappointing.

Pushing open the window, looking in the direction of the palace where the emperor lived, wondering how the emperor would react when he knew that he had honestly reported his pregnancy?

The emperor's palace never lacked in luxury and grandeur. The queen and concubine Shu, who had just been called to accompany them to listen to the music, posed in different poses.

Holding the teacup, Feng Jin listened to Concubine Shu's praise of the singer with a half-smile, and only said at the end of the song: "The voice is nice, but it's a pity that it still lacks a little charm. It's a pity."

"The emperor has heard Concubine Rou's wonderful voice, so he naturally feels that other people are always lacking in charm." The queen glanced at Concubine Shu with admiration, "I have been in the palace for many years, and I have never heard a voice more beautiful than Concubine Rou's. "

Concubine Shu showed her approval, but she felt a little mocking in her heart. Ever since she entered the palace, the empress she had seen had always been in such a magnanimous posture. It was a pity that the emperor would never treat her indifferently, with respect more than affection. Even though she is in the phoenix position, she is still a poor woman.

Picking up the exquisite teacup in front of her, a faint smile was drawn on the corners of Concubine Shu's lips, so what about having the most honorable position among women in the world, she would never even think about having such a doting queen in her life.

Feng Jin lazily listened to the queen's words, and was about to say a few words, when he saw a eunuch at the door with a happy face saying something to Gao Dezhong who was guarding the door, he seemed to be a servant of Xihe Palace.

He waved his hand, making all the waiters present stop playing and singing, "Gao Dezhong, let him come in and answer."

After the eunuch knelt in front of him, Feng Jin remembered that this eunuch was a useful eunuch in Concubine Zhao's Palace, seeing his happy face made Feng Jin a little curious.

"This servant has seen the emperor, and this servant is announcing the emperor's happiness." The eunuch knelt down neatly, not at all disturbed by joy.

Feng Jin's eyebrows twitched, and he sat up straight involuntarily, but his expression didn't change: "Is there anything good that my concubine wants to tell me?"

Concubine Shu's hand holding the teacup froze for a long time. She thought of a possibility she didn't want to see, and she glanced at the queen from the corner of her eye, and she saw that the other side's generosity was a little bit reluctant.

"Back to the emperor, just now the imperial physician checked the empress' pulse. The imperial physician said that the empress Zhaofei is more than a month pregnant."

Sure enough, Concubine Shu felt a little bitter. Although she didn't admit that Concubine Zhao was more favored than her, she had to say that Concubine Zhao's life was really good.

"Concubine Zhao is pregnant?!" The emperor sat up straight and leaned forward, with a smile on his face, "Concubine Zhao asked you to come?"

"As soon as the empress heard that she was pregnant, she wept with joy and asked the servant to report to the emperor." The eunuch couldn't hide the joy on his face. "If the two aunts didn't stop the master, I'm afraid the master has come to see you in person."

When Concubine Shu heard the words of the eunuch of Xihe Palace, she couldn't help feeling displeased. These words were too frivolous. Could it be that Concubine Zhao was the only one in the harem who had conceived a child? But I don't know if Concubine Zhao is overjoyed or what, she really wants to let the whole harem know that she is pregnant, isn't she waiting to make the concubines in the harem jealous?

Sure enough, anyone could use the word smug.

If it was someone else, Feng Jin might have guessed like she did, but it was Concubine Zhao who did this kind of thing right now, and he understood in his heart why Concubine Zhao was so happy.

Concubine Zhao fell in love with him, that's why she was so sad after the miscarriage. She was pregnant again, which gave her hope and even made her forget the dangers of the harem. She only wanted to let him know that they had another child.

Just when the queen and Concubine Shu thought that the emperor would say the words of reward, they saw the emperor standing up and striding out of the palace.

"Respectfully send off the emperor." The empress and Concubine Shu bowed their knees, watching the emperor's back quickly disappear behind the palace gate, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

The hall became silent for a moment, except for the palace attendants kneeling quietly, only the empress and concubine Shu were left standing in the hall.

The queen walked towards the palace gate, and when she heard Concubine Shu's gentle congratulations, she couldn't help but look back at Concubine Shu, who was pleasing to the eye, until Concubine Shu's bent knees trembled a little before she said, "You are not the only one in the harem who understands You think you can see through her, but you don’t know that she can see through you too.” After saying this, the queen supported the maid’s hand and walked out of the emperor’s palace with the queen’s dignified appearance.

As long as she is the empress, she is the emperor's wife, the imperial concubine of Emperor Chengxuan of Kyushu Dynasty, no matter how favored the concubine is, she is just the emperor's plaything, even in future history books, her name will be written on these women, No one can surpass her.

Concubine Shu stood up straight, her face darkened a bit, but she looked around at the palace servants who belonged to the imperial court, and followed her out without changing her expression.

When Feng Jin arrived at Xihe Palace, the whole palace was full of joy. The woman he met was standing at the gate of the palace and looking at him with a smile. Her small face looked a little hazy in the continuous autumn rain. He sat on the imperial chariot and looked at him. Looking at her, he seemed to see the despair she had when she kept saying that their child was gone.

After getting off the imperial chariot, holding her warm hand, seeing that she was dressed thickly, he said with a smile: "When I heard the good news, I hurried here."

"The concubine wondered if the emperor would come." Zhuang Luoyan showed a satisfied smile, "The emperor still came."

"Ranyan presumes the emperor's heart, isn't she afraid of my punishment?" It's cold in late autumn, and Feng Jin is worried that she will catch the cold, so he takes someone to the house with him. some."

Suddenly hearing the emperor call herself that, Zhuang Luoyan inexplicably had the illusion that a mother is more valuable than a child. She turned her head to look at the tenderness in the other's eyes, and smiled sweeter: "I don't dare to let myself get sick. Listen to the doctor Mao." Said that if you take medicine when you are pregnant, it will be very bad for the unborn child."

After Zhuang Luoyan said this, Feng Jin found that the other party was dressed thicker today than in the past. Although he was not as handsome as other concubines, he was a little more real.

"When it comes to falsely testing the emperor's heart, the concubine is in a dilemma. Many times the concubine is thinking about when the emperor will come, what kind of clothes I will like, what kind of hair I wear, and what things I need to learn so that the emperor will like me even more. Concubine," Zhuang Luoyan pulled the emperor's wrist a little more vigorously, "I always think that if I know more about the emperor's hobbies, the emperor will like the concubine more..."

Realizing that he had talked too much, Zhuang Luoyan turned his head aside awkwardly, as if embarrassed and scared.

After listening to the words, Feng Jin looked at Zhuang Luoyan who didn't dare to look at him, and said with a smile: "Why are you so stupid, but I like it very much."

Hearing this, Zhuang Luoyan raised her head proudly: "Of course, this concubine is your child's mother."

Damn the child?

Feng Jin raised his eyebrows, and brought Zhuang Luoyan into the gate of Xihe Palace noncommittally.

Outside Xihe Palace, beside the lotus pond and rockery, the queen sat on a phoenix chariot, watching the emperor and concubine Zhao bring them into Xihe Palace. She couldn't see the expressions on their faces, but the way they got along made people She thought she saw something else.

"Empress, shall we go now?" He Yu asked hesitantly.

"Go back to Jingyang Palace." The queen supported the armrest of the phoenix chariot, closed her eyes, and as the phoenix chariot turned, she got farther and farther away from Xihe Palace.

The news that Concubine Zhao of Xihe Palace was pregnant spread to all the palaces in less than an hour, and even the news that the emperor had not come out of Xihe Palace reached everyone's ears.

In the past, it was not that there were no concubines who were pregnant in the harem, but I have never seen the emperor attach so much importance to it. There is also a big difference in whether pregnant concubines are favored or not.

On the contrary, the empress rewarded a lot of things to Xihe Palace within this hour, each of these things was unusual, but none of them was suspicious.

The queen's attitude seemed very clear, and she valued the fetus in Concubine Zhao's womb as a warning to other concubines not to have thoughts that they shouldn't have.

All the concubines felt a little strange in their hearts, they had never seen how close the empress was to Concubine Zhao in the past, not to mention that if they remembered correctly, Concubine Zhao was related to the abolition of the empress's cousin, how could the empress be so virtuous and magnanimous?
