Chapter 261 You are happy
Chapter 261 You are happy
Imperial Physician Wang checked the Queen's pulse as usual today. He first bowed respectfully, then carefully extended his right index finger, middle finger and ring finger, and gently placed them on the Queen's snow-white, slender and tender wrist.
Gu Lanxi only felt that he took an unusually long time to diagnose her pulse today, and his expression was a little solemn.
My heart couldn't help but tense up, I held my breath and waited quietly. But after taking the pulse, Doctor Wang calmed down and said, "Your Majesty is in good health, and your pulse is steady."
Gu Lanxi felt that she was too sensitive and couldn't help showing disappointment. She asked the palace maid to send the imperial physician out.
After leaving Yongshou Palace, Imperial Physician Wang did not return to the Imperial Physician's Office, but went straight to see His Majesty.
Along the way, his face was solemn and he walked hurriedly because of the fear in his heart.
When Jinyang saw Doctor Wang, he thought Gu Lanxi was ill and hurriedly summoned him into the palace.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I carefully checked Your Majesty's pulse today. It was stringy but slippery, and it seemed to be there and not there. This is the initial movement of the fetus, but it has not yet shown any signs of pregnancy. This is a sign of pregnancy, but it is still early. With my medical skills, I cannot guarantee a definitive conclusion, so I have not told Your Majesty clearly."
In fact, Doctor Wang was extremely modest in saying this. If it had happened in the past, he could have basically confirmed it with his medical skills.
But this was the first case of a woman getting pregnant, so he had to be cautious. To this day, he still couldn't believe that the elixir could actually make the queen pregnant. If he hadn't checked the pulse himself, he would never have believed it.
As for why he did not report it to the Empress first, it was actually because His Majesty had already reminded him before, and before he was sure, he really did not dare to let the Empress be happy for nothing.
After all, everyone in the court knows how much His Majesty cherishes the Empress.
Jinyang's heart seemed to stop beating at this moment, the whole world was still, and only the unexpected surprise was flashing.
After a few breaths, he exhaled gently, suppressed his turbulent thoughts, and said in a calm voice: "You did a good job. How long will it take to confirm the diagnosis?"
"Your Majesty, the pulse will be stable in ten days."
"Once you are sure everything is safe, then let the Queen know."
Her hands were slightly sweaty as she spoke, and there was a faint light flashing in her eyes. Even though she was trying to hide it, one could still sense her joy.
Although she longed for this child very much, she did not dare to have too high expectations. She had to stay calm, and she had to stay calm.
But Qin Ke was indeed a divine person gifted by God. Not only could she produce tools that benefited the country and the people, she could also produce such magical elixirs.
……
After that, Doctor Wang took the Queen's pulse every day, and her slippery pulse became more and more obvious.
It was not until ten days later, when he was sure in his heart, that he stepped back two steps, knelt down and congratulated, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty's pulse is as warm and smooth as jade, not astringent, which means that the fetus is already solid, and you are indeed pregnant. I hope Your Majesty and Your Majesty will wait patiently and welcome the birth of the prince and princess."
"Is the imperial physician sure?" Gu Lanxi put her hand on her belly with a look of surprise. Even though she couldn't feel anything yet, all mothers in the world can't help themselves.
"I dare not lie."
"Ji, did you hear that?" Gu Lanxi turned around and smiled, her smile was as bright as the stars, charming and moving.
She was so surprised that she forgot there were other people around and blurted out Jinyang's name.
In this world, no one except her dares to call her name like this.
"Of course I heard it. We are having a child." Jinyang held her hand. She had been waiting here today on purpose just to hear the news with her.
Jinyang had been mentally prepared and was able to remain calm at this time.
"You may leave first. The Queen needs to take good care of her baby. The Imperial Medical Bureau needs to record the daily records." After that, he looked at Qiu Tong who was also overjoyed and ordered: "Pass the order down. Since the Queen is pregnant, the maids and eunuchs in Yongshou Palace will all be rewarded."
Qiu Tong has followed Gu Lanxi since she was a child, and has also witnessed her relationship with His Majesty over the years. Now that she heard that her master had finally gotten what he wished for, she was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.
Even when the moon was high in the sky, Gu Lanxi was still somewhat incredulous, and she lay on the bed with her hands on her belly.
Jinyang smiled and took her into his arms, saying softly, "Don't be so careful. The more nervous you are, the worse it is for your health. Look at how when Lu Youqing was pregnant, she still went to work as usual."
She had seen many pregnant concubines in the harem since she was a child, so she knew something about it.
Gu Lanxi's mother died early, and no one taught her these things, so she could only purse her lips and smile: "I'll try my best."
But when it comes to Lu Youqing, Gu Lanxi looked at her sideways and asked, "Speaking of Youqing, this matter still depends on them. Although she didn't take the credit, I can't just say nothing."
Jin Yang knew what she was thinking, and after a moment of silence, he said, "She has made great contributions in disaster relief and successfully eradicated the Mahayana sect's traitors. I have issued an imperial decree to promote her to the position of Shang Shu Ling."
She originally sent Lu Youqing to provide disaster relief, not only because of her outstanding ability, but also because she wanted to promote her.
The Shangshu Ling is a second-rank official position.
With the reputation of a scholar, she climbed up step by step from a county magistrate in a remote area to the position of prime minister of the Great Yan Dynasty in just a few years. It can be said that she was unprecedented and will never be surpassed.
She is already the youngest prime minister since the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty, and there is no room for her to be promoted any higher.
"Qin Ke..." Jin Yang hesitated, then said, "Before, there were two Shangshu in one family, which was against the balance of the court."
Although the Ministry of Industry is the least prominent department among the six ministries, it is still one of the six ministries.
This means that there is no plan to promote Qin Ke anymore.
Gu Lanxi blinked and suddenly smiled: "Look at you, you have been the emperor for a long time now, can you only think of rewards like promotion? Besides, don't you understand Qin Ke's personality?"
Jinyang lowered his eyes. Indeed, he didn't seem to care about what kind of official he was. He would rather sleep in and take care of the children at home than attend the morning court.
"Okay, leave this to me."
Gu Lanxi smiled softly. She had already thought of a better way. Qin Ke would probably like this more than getting promoted.
The news that the Queen was pregnant spread quickly throughout the capital, and people were shocked.
Someone in the court immediately wanted to impeach the Queen for defiling the harem, but His Majesty immediately rebuked her.
The entire Imperial Medical Bureau, and even the guards responsible for guarding and patrolling the harem can all prove that the Queen's baby is His Majesty's bloodline. After all, for a whole month, no one except His Majesty had stepped into the gate of Yongshou Palace.
Unless the Queen can fly.
Someone inquired privately, and both the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau and the palace maids and eunuchs serving in the Yongshou Palace said with certainty that no one except His Majesty had ever approached the Empress.
Jinyang naturally allowed them to inquire and investigate. She had expected all this. It was better to make trouble now than to have trouble during delivery.
They had no choice but to believe that such a miraculous medicine really existed in the world.
