Chapter 659: Still Pregnant
Concubine Li is in trouble, how come he doesn't know about this?
Thinking of this, Emperor Jingyang immediately ordered someone to call a royal physician.
When the imperial physician entered the Weiyang Palace, he saluted the two of them.
"Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty, and to His Majesty the Concubine Li."
Emperor Jingyang said in a deep voice: "Concubine Li is not feeling well. Doctor Qin is here to take her pulse and see if she can get pregnant again."
Emperor Jingyang's words were very straightforward. Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Qin hurried forward, took out a handkerchief, placed it on Concubine Li's wrist, and began to take Concubine Li's pulse.
Concubine Li's hands were shaking with nervousness. She was afraid that Doctor Qin would notice something.
Before this, she had bribed the Imperial Physician Zhu in the palace. Imperial Physician Zhu was the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau and his medical skills were impeccable.
He helped her conceal many things and solved many problems.
Unfortunately, because of some things, Concubine Li had to ask King Nan Xiao to send someone to kill Doctor Zhu, and he died in the cell.
Every time she thought of this incident, she hated Ji Yuntang to the core.
Because of that bitch Ji Yuntang, many of her trusted friends died one after another.
When these people died, Concubine Li could only watch helplessly. She could not save them, let alone plead for them.
Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people around her who can be used, and there is no one else except Jianlan.
Thinking of Jianlan, Concubine Li couldn't help but frown.
For some reason, she always felt that Jianlan was not as serious and reliable as before.
She is always absent-minded and often makes small mistakes.
Just as Concubine Li was lost in thought, the voice of Doctor Qin rang out.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li's pulse is deep and slow, and her yang, kidney and yin are deficient. Judging from her pulse, she did suffer from some underlying illness during childbirth, and she did not rest in time, so her body has suffered some damage."
Emperor Jingyang frowned slightly. He always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this sentence, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
When Concubine Li gave birth to Luo Junhe and Luo Qianxue, they were both natural births, so why did her body suffer from damage?
Even if there was a loss, she would live in the palace, and the palace physicians would definitely use the best medicinal herbs to treat her.
Why hasn't her pulse changed after more than ten years?
Emperor Jingyang didn't know medicine, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
When Concubine Li saw his expression, her heart skipped a beat. She knew that Emperor Jingyang might have doubts about her.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly asked: "Doctor Qin, can I still get pregnant with a child in the future?"
Concubine Li knew that this was the issue that Emperor Jingyang was most concerned about. She now just wanted to use this matter to divert Emperor Jingyang's attention and let him not think too much about the damage to her body.
As expected by Concubine Li, Emperor Jingyang's attention was diverted.
He asked Doctor Zhu, "Can Concubine Li still bear my prince?"
He felt that Concubine Li had good genes for giving birth to a son.
Luo Junhe is first-class in terms of height, appearance, and military talent.
His ability is even better than Luo Jingshen's, but unfortunately it is beyond his control.
With sons like this, Emperor Jingyang would love to have a few more.
As for him, Concubine Li’s service skills were also first-class.
He liked her very much and was willing to have children with Concubine Li.
When Imperial Physician Qin heard Emperor Jingyang's question, he said, "Empress Li has dampness and cold in her body, so it may be difficult for her to have children, but..."
Emperor Jingyang quickly asked: "But what?"
Doctor Qin looked up at Jing Yang for the first time and said respectfully: "But if you use thousand-year-old ginseng to regulate Concubine Li's body, it can still be adjusted. As long as the dampness and coldness are removed, Concubine Li will be able to get pregnant again within half a year."
He knew that Emperor Jingyang had a thousand-year-old ginseng kept in the palace. He treasured it very much and was reluctant to use it himself.
When Doctor Qin said this, he was also feeling uneasy.
He was afraid that Emperor Jingyang would blame him for this.
After all, something like thousand-year-old ginseng is an excellent tonic that is hard to come by.
It would be such a waste to feed it to a concubine.
Doctor Qin didn't know whether Jing Yang was willing to give it to Concubine Li, and he didn't dare to ask.
Concubine Li was slightly delighted in her heart. Based on her understanding of Emperor Jingyang, he would definitely not be willing to give her the thousand-year-old ginseng.
In this way, Emperor Jingyang would not force her to have a child.
Just when Concubine Li was secretly delighted, Emperor Jingyang suddenly called Eunuch Zhang.
"Zhang Fugui, pass on my order to take out the thousand-year-old ginseng from the storehouse and use it to nourish Concubine Li."
Concubine Li: "..."
Concubine Li: "!!!"
She stared at Emperor Jingyang with wide eyes, completely shocked.
Did she hear it right?
Emperor Jingyang actually asked Eunuch Zhang to take out the thousand-year-old ginseng that he had treasured for nearly ten years to nourish her body?
Is this still the stingy, petty and pretentious Emperor Jingyang that she knows?
Could it be that he is possessed by someone?
When Concubine Li saw that Eunuch Zhang was about to leave, she quickly said, "Your Majesty, you must not do this."
"How can you let me eat something as valuable as the thousand-year-old ginseng?"
"Such supplements should be enjoyed by Your Majesty yourself."
Under normal circumstances, if Emperor Jingyang rewarded her with a thousand-year-old ginseng, Concubine Li would definitely be happy.
But now, she doesn't want this hot potato at all.
Because, if she ate the thousand-year-old ginseng from Emperor Jingyang, it would mean that she agreed to give birth to a child for him.
If she fails to get pregnant, he will definitely suspect that he secretly drank the contraceptive soup afterwards.
But what should she do if she really gets pregnant in the future?
Concubine Li was caught in a dilemma. She cursed Emperor Jingyang a hundred times in her heart.
Jingyang Emperor is usually so generous to her. What’s wrong with him today?
Emperor Jingyang looked at Concubine Li and thought that she was just feeling sorry for her thousand-year-old ginseng.
She grabbed Concubine Li's hand and said lovingly, "My beloved, it's just a ginseng. How can it be compared with you?"
"If I can cure your illness and allow you to conceive my son, I will send someone to find you a thousand-year-old ginseng, or even a ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus."
Concubine Li: "!!!"
She didn't want to have Emperor Jingyang's child at all, and she didn't want this thousand-year-old ginseng even more.
In her opinion, this thing is now harmful to her and has no benefit at all.
When she was not feeling well, Concubine Li could find excuses to avoid sleeping with the emperor.
If the thousand-year-old ginseng really healed her body, it would be difficult for her not to sleep with Emperor Jingyang in the future.
She slept with the king in the emperor's bed rarely, so the king of Nan Xiao might not know about it yet.
But if he sleeps with her more often, wouldn't King Nan Xiao become suspicious?
The answer is definitely impossible.
Although Concubine Li said that she did this for the future benefit of the prince.
