To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 412 You are happy

  The imperial physician still remained silent.

  He dare not!

  If it was an ordinary woman, he would dare to say that he was happy as soon as he got the pulse, but this is the imperial concubine.

  The emperor only has one princess. If he makes a mistake, not to mention his life, even the lives of the whole family will not be enough.

   "Imperial Physician—" Concubine Xiao Gui's face darkened slightly.

  The imperial physician let go of his hand, and the beads of sweat on his forehead became finer and finer.

   "Why doesn't the imperial physician say anything, is it possible that I'm suffering from a serious illness?" Concubine Xiao Gui's tone was tinged with anger.

  The imperial physician gave a jolt.

   If he rushed the imperial concubine to something bad, he would also be unable to bear it.

  The imperial physician hesitated for a moment, and said: "I don't dare to draw conclusions about your empress's situation, why don't you invite another imperial physician to come for a consultation."

  Concubine Xiao Gui was heartbroken, and winked at Tao Hong, her confidant.

  Tao Hong walked out lightly.

   Not long after, another imperial physician surnamed Zhang hurried over.

  After Imperial Physician Zhang saw the ceremony, Concubine Xiao extended her hand.

   Imperial Physician Zhang subconsciously glanced at Imperial Physician Yang.

  Physician Yang returned a complicated look.

  Physician Zhang paused.

  Emperor Yang's look, he couldn't understand it for a while.

   Could it be that the imperial concubine was suffering from a serious illness, but the doctor Yang diagnosed it but dared not say it?

  If so, Imperial Physician Yang is not cheating!

  Everyone knows the emperor's love for the imperial concubine. If the imperial concubine finds out that something is wrong, can the imperial physician who made this conclusion be fine?

  Physician Zhang was apprehensive and annoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, and put his fingertips on Concubine Xiao's wrist.

   With this action, Doctor Zhang's heart almost jumped out of his chest.

  Concubine Xiao Gui kept staring at Imperial Physician Zhang, seeing his sudden change of expression, she knew that the abnormality of Imperial Physician Yang just now was not accidental.

  After waiting patiently for a while, but no doctor Zhang said anything, Concubine Xiao Gui asked coldly, "What's wrong with me?"

  Physician Zhang raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said respectfully, "I want to discuss it with Physician Yang."

  Concubine Xiao Gui raised her chin slightly, as if she agreed.

  The two imperial physicians went outside, you looked at me, I looked at you, no one wanted to speak first.

  In the end, it was the later Imperial Physician Zhang who said, "Master Yang, the imperial concubine...is she..."

  Mr. Yang said in a low voice: "Nine times out of ten, it's a happy pulse. What does Mr. Zhang think?"

   No matter how afraid to draw a conclusion, there must be a result.

   Physician Zhang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the conclusion of Imperial Physician Yang, and lowered his voice: "I think so too."

  The two looked at each other and walked in together.

  Concubine Xiao Gui looked at the two imperial physicians expressionlessly, but she was actually very nervous.

  No matter how much you dare not think about it, who doesn't have a little extravagant hope in your heart.

   "Tell me, what's going on with me."

   After a moment of silence, Imperial Physician Yang cupped his hands: "Report to Madam, according to the pulse condition... it should be the Xi pulse."

  Happy pulse?

   These two words directly blinded Concubine Xiao Gui, making her unable to utter a sound, and could only turn her eyes to look at another imperial physician with difficulty.

   Imperial Physician Zhang arched his hands, which means he agrees with Imperial Physician Yang's words.

  Concubine Xiao Gui blinked, tears rolling down the corners of her eyes.

   "Congratulations, empress, congratulations, empress!"

  The palace man knelt on the ground and congratulated loudly.

  Concubine Xiao Gui condescendingly looked at the people kneeling together, and joy slowly grew in her heart.

  This joy is not the joy of being drunk today, but like a seed that falls on the ground and breaks out with hope.

  The tears flowed more and more fiercely.

  Tao Hong hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, you can't cry, you have to be careful."

   Concubine Xiao nodded indiscriminately, she had long lost her usual noble and arrogant demeanor.

  At this moment, Emperor Yong'an was resting with his eyes closed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and Zhou Shan walked in gently.

  Emperor Yong'an slowly opened his eyes.

  At his age, he sleeps very lightly, and a slight movement is enough to wake him up.

  Emperor Yong'an looked at Zhou Shan's footsteps lightly but fast, his eyes became deep.

   Zhou Shan has always been steady, and this appearance is probably because something happened.

   "Your Majesty, there is news from Yuhua Palace that the imperial concubine...is diagnosed with a happy pulse—"

  Emperor Yong'an sat up directly, with a stern tone: "What did you say?"

   Zhou Shan had expected the reaction of Emperor Yong'an, so he repeated the news in a soft voice.

  Emperor Yong'an sat on the couch and did not respond for a long time.

  Zhou Shan stood aside and did not dare to disturb.

  He couldn't be more aware of how much impact the news of the imperial concubine's happiness had on the emperor.

  There has been no news of a concubine's pregnancy in the palace for many years. It is precisely because of this that the emperor adopted Wei Qiang, the son of Prince Pingnan, as the crown prince eight years ago.

   In the final analysis, for the sake of the stability of the country, I had to choose this way.

  As long as any concubine in the palace has had any movement, even if she has not been born, it will not be the current situation.

  Everyone is like this, if you can have your own son to inherit the incense, who would be willing to have someone else's.

   Zhou Shan lowered his head and sighed in his heart.

  Next, I'm afraid it will usher in troubled times.

   After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Emperor Yong'an finally said, "Who knows about the imperial concubine's happiness?"

  Zhou Shan replied: "Yang and Zhang are two imperial physicians, and there are some palace people who are close to the empress."

   "Confession, don't spread it out for now."

  Emperor Yong'an finished his orders, got up and walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

  Everywhere outside the hall was colorful, lively and lively.

  Emperor Yong'an only felt refreshed, and hurried to Yuhua Palace.

  In Yuhua Palace, Concubine Xiao Gui retreated to the left and right, leaving only the palace maid Taohong.

   "Tao Hong, do you think the imperial physician may have made a wrong diagnosis?"

   After Concubine Xiao was excited, she was worried about gains and losses.

  Peach red eyebrows and eyes are full of joy: "Your Majesty, don't worry, you can't be wrong. If the two imperial physicians are not fully sure, they dare not speak nonsense."

   When Concubine Xiao thought about the prudence of the two imperial physicians Yang and Zhang in diagnosing the pulse, she felt a little relieved, and immediately thought of the magical medicinal recipe.

   "Everything about the medicinal recipes must not be known to others."

   "Your Majesty, don't worry, the only one who handled it from the beginning to the end is the servant girl."

   Concubine Xiao nodded slightly.

  At this moment, a voice came from outside: "The emperor is here—"

   Before Xiao Guifei greeted him, Emperor Yong'an walked in quickly.

  Concubine Xiao Gui bowed her knees to salute, but was pulled up by Emperor Yong'an: "You don't need to be too polite, dear concubine."

   Sending away the servants, Emperor Yong'an looked at Concubine Xiao's flat abdomen, and said with infinite emotion: "It's really hard to love my concubine, and it made me feel the joy of being a father again."

  Concubine Xiao Gui trembled: "I don't know if it's the prince or the princess..."

  Emperor Yong'an laughed happily: "Whether the prince or the princess is my treasure."

   It is of course the best that the imperial concubine's birth is a dragon child, even if it is not, it is worth being happy.

  Being able to give birth to a noble concubine means that he is still young. With so many concubines in the harem, there will be princes and queens.

  Emperor Yong'an's happy mood was clouded when he thought of Wei Qiang, but he didn't show it at all on his face.

  Time continued to flow forward, and Baiguan Xungui discovered one thing: Why is there no movement in this year's autumn, isn't it going?
