Chapter 279: Wanting to Get Pregnant
Chapter 279: Wanting to Get Pregnant
Song Miqiu grabbed her medicine kit and quickly went out the door.
Go early and come back early, who knows what kind of torment this ancestor is planning.
In Consort Lin's palace.
"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
Song Miqiu opened the door and immediately saw Consort Lin's radiant face. She stepped forward and bowed.
It must be because the Emperor has been spending a lot of time with her lately, and he seems to be in high spirits. Consort Lin looks much better than before.
Consort Lin greeted her with a smile.
"Someone, bring Physician Song a cup of the finest tea."
Seeing her like this, Song Miqiu felt...
My heart skipped a beat; something was definitely amiss!
Is Consort Lin the kind of person who speaks kindly and gently?
"Consort Lin, please speak plainly about what you have to say!"
Song Miqiu could tell at a glance that Consort Lin definitely had something to ask of him.
"Then I'll be frank. As you know, I've recently received your help and have gained your favor, but my pregnancy hasn't progressed at all."
Consort Lin looked at her flat stomach with a disappointed expression.
Song Miqiu looked in the direction she was pointing. She should know in her heart that after what happened last time, she had very little chance of getting pregnant.
Song Miqiu was somewhat embarrassed and didn't know how to start the conversation.
He frowned, somewhat reluctant to discourage her.
"Consort Lin, you should know about what happened last time, and this pregnancy is..."
Song Miqiu did not say it directly.
Instead, they subtly wanted Consort Lin to know for herself.
Consort Lin immediately grabbed Song Miqiu excitedly, as if grasping at a straw, and said, "I know, I know, it's my own fault, it's my own bad luck."
Lin Fei's tears immediately rolled down her cheeks like pearls. In this miserable state, there was no trace of her usual sharp and stern demeanor.
Song Miqiu felt somewhat uncomfortable watching this.
"But this is my only wish." Consort Lin gripped Song Miqiu's hands even tighter. She had no other choice; Song Miqiu was the only one who could help her now.
Seeing how young and pitiful Consort Lin was, Song Miqiu felt a pang of heartache, but the matter of the child was destined to happen.
It's highly unlikely that Consort Lin, having already weakened her body, would become pregnant so easily.
Song Miqiu said tactfully:
"Your Majesty, we can talk about the child later. Right now, you should just take good care of yourself."
"There's plenty of time to deal with the children."
Song Miqiu wanted to change the subject, as she truly didn't have the ability to make someone have a child so easily.
Consort Lin stood up abruptly and said excitedly, "Can't you help me? Even just giving me a glimmer of hope would be helpful."
His words carried a barely suppressed anger.
"Your Majesty, it would be best for your health not to get pregnant within a year."
Song Miqiu thought to herself that she had made herself very clear, so why couldn't Consort Lin understand?
"How do you know that the Emperor might not come to me again? What if I miss my chance?"
Consort Lin was also afraid that the Emperor might neglect her again, just like last time.
With three thousand beauties in the imperial harem, and so many people, there's already the precedent of Consort Li; there will surely be other concubines as well.
How could I possibly handle everything on my own? Only when I have a child to rely on will I naturally not lose my status and be at the mercy of others.
Thinking of those concubines locked up in the cold palace, Consort Lin shook her head. She would never allow herself to become forgotten in the future!
Shaking her head, the hair ornament on her head made a sound, which shows how excited Consort Lin was!
Song Miqiu was startled and immediately realized that her words might anger Consort Lin.
"Your Majesty, I suggest you take care of your health first. Once you are healthy, you might be able to conceive in less than a year."
For now, this is the only way to appease Consort Lin.
After all, for a woman, especially a woman in the imperial harem.
Without favor and children, one is nothing and can be trampled underfoot at any time.
Upon hearing Song Miqiu's words, Consort Lin's expression softened considerably. "Then thank you very much, Physician Song."
Song Miqiu shook his head after seeing Lin Fei's condition and prescribed her some medicine to replenish her qi and blood, to help her regulate her body.
As for whether Consort Lin can get pregnant soon...
We'll just have to take it one step at a time.
Afterwards, Consort Lin had her personal maid escort Song Miqiu back to her residence.
Song Miqiu's face was full of worry the whole way.
"Imperial Physician Song, please don't take Consort Lin's words to heart. Consort Lin is also acting against her will. Her family is putting a lot of pressure on her to get pregnant with the Emperor's child as soon as possible."
The palace maid regretted her words as soon as she uttered them. How could a lowly palace maid like her dare to speak ill of Consort Lin and her ilk?
.
When Song Miqiu heard the palace maid say this, he couldn't help but sigh, "It's not easy being a woman in the harem."
"Don't worry, I have already prescribed medicine for Consort Lin, and she will take good care of herself."
Song Miqiu looked at the palace maid and said.
"You should go back and take care of Consort Lin first! You can walk back by yourself!"
Song Miqiu wanted to have some peace and quiet.
"But."
The palace maid wanted to say something more, but seeing Song Miqiu's insistent expression, she shut her mouth, bowed, and withdrew.
Song Miqiu suddenly felt sorry for Consort Lin, who was also a pitiful person.
But there are countless pitiful people in this harem, except for that philandering emperor.
Song Miqiu sighed, completely unaware that there were two figures in the pavilion opposite.
The palace maid next to Consort Li was the first to see Song Miqiu walking this way and gave Consort Li a look. Song Miqiu was preoccupied with her own thoughts and did not pay any attention to Consort Li opposite her.
If Song Miqiu saw Consort Li, he would definitely take a detour.
Consort Li gave a wink, signaling to the palace maid beside her to call Song Miqiu over.
The palace maid immediately understood what Consort Li meant.
Consort Li sat in the pavilion, holding a round fan in her hand, her eyes slightly narrowed as she looked at the lotus flowers in the lake, her other hand touching her belly, a smile on her face.
"Imperial Physician Song, what are you doing here?"
The palace maid bowed when she saw Song Miqiu.
Song Miqiu's nerves immediately snapped.
He glanced at the palace maids, then looked out at the pavilion in the distance, and sure enough, he saw Consort Li admiring the scenery across the way. He realized that things were not so simple after all.
What's going on? Am I really that unlucky?
I just saw off Consort Lin, and now Consort Li is here. I never liked Consort Li to begin with, I don't know what she's up to.
Well, since we've run into each other, I might as well pretend I don't know anything.
"I was just about to head back!"
As soon as Song Miqiu finished speaking, he planned to slip away.
"Imperial Physician Song, why are you in such a hurry? Consort Li has invited you to come and admire the lotus flowers together!"
"
The palace maid spread her arms to block her way, refusing to let Song Miqiu leave no matter what.
Song Miqiu said with some difficulty, "Please tell Consort Li that there is some urgent business at the Imperial Hospital in the besieged city."
Given the current situation, Song Miqiu was trying to evade the issue.
