Those who can become the head of the hospital are definitely smart people, and their medical skills are not the only ones they rely on. After being asked two question marks by the head of the Feng family, the head of the hospital immediately broke out in a cold sweat, isn't it? Because there are no female doctors in the Imperial Hospital for the time being, male doctors now need to feel the pulse through a handkerchief, not to mention other things...

"I am guilty!" The dean knelt down again hurriedly to plead guilty. If it were not for the reminder from the head of the Feng family today, he would have almost become a sinner and caused a disaster.

There are more than 3,000 pregnant women, and every one of them has her whole family looking forward to having this child with great anticipation. Even if something goes wrong with one of them, he will be held responsible even if he dies.

"Dean, you don't need to be so nervous. This is your first time and you have no experience, so it is inevitable that you will not think things through. Just make up for it in time." When the Feng family head saw that the dean understood what he meant, he sighed inwardly that he was a smart man, and then comforted him in a slow voice.

"There is another matter for inviting you here today. Here," Patriarch Feng pointed at the pile of memorials in front of him with his chin, and then said, "The mayors of other prefectures have submitted memorials, hoping that the consultation hall will open branches in their prefectures. What do you think about this?"

Ah, there is such a thing? When did the reputation of the Imperial Hospital become so famous? The head of the hospital was shocked again, and then he felt happy. The imperial doctors who had been busy outside recently did not complain, but began to complain because of the recent decrease in workload.

After pondering silently for a while, the head of the hospital looked up at the head of the Feng family and said, "Based on the number of patients coming for treatment, it is enough to leave two or three imperial doctors in the capital. I suggest that it is best to go with a team of three, assisted by doctors from various prefectures. Unless there are special circumstances, there shouldn't be any problems."

"Now the main issue is whether the herbs from Liuzhou Prefecture can be supplied to so many places at the same time?" The head of the hospital then raised his concerns.

Everyone in the room nodded when they heard this, and finally it was Patriarch Feng who took up the topic: "Regarding this issue, I will personally write to discuss it with Liuzhou Prefecture. Your most important thing now is to arrange the matters of the Capital Consultation Hall, and then confirm the specific list of the team members, and be ready to set off at any time."

The memorials from various prefectures had not been dealt with yet, but another big thing broke out in the Chu Mansion. Mrs. Chu, who was already more than three months pregnant, was found to have double pulses during a regular checkup by the palace doctor.

Seeing the court physician's expression suddenly become solemn, the head of the Chu family who was standing nearby also became nervous. Ever since Madam Chu became pregnant, he would take time out to be with Madam Chu during every routine checkup no matter how busy he was.

"Doctor, is there anything wrong with the lady?"

The court doctor looked at the wide-eyed Chu family head, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to speak: "Don't be too nervous, family head, there is just one thing I am not sure about. Can you please send someone to invite a royal doctor to take a look?"

After hearing this, the Chu family head and his wife looked at each other, and immediately asked the butler to take their visiting card to the consultation hall to invite the imperial physician to come to the house.

Seeing Butler Chu hurriedly rushing to the consultation hall with the visiting card, this unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of the people who had been staring at the Chu Mansion. Some even followed the butler directly to the consultation hall.

"Excuse me, which imperial physician is free now? Can we go to the Chu Mansion?" Butler Chu, who had just stepped into the door of the consultation hall, whispered to the pharmacist who came towards him, and at the same time handed over the visiting card in his hand.

When the medicine boy saw that it was the butler of the Chu Mansion who came in person and specifically asked the imperial physician to go to the Chu Mansion in person, he thought of the legendary pregnant Madam Chu and was afraid to neglect him. "Butler, please wait a moment. Let me go in and report."

"Thank you, young man!" Butler Chu said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Today, the head of the hospital happened to come to the consultation hall. When he heard that something happened in the Chu Mansion, he immediately came over from inside the house. Looking at the sweaty Chu housekeeper, his face changed and he asked anxiously, "Housekeeper Chu, what happened in the mansion?"

Seeing that it was the head of the hospital who came out, Butler Chu's heart was a little relieved. "Greetings, head of the hospital. Today is the day for the lady's routine physical examination. The master didn't say what it was, but just asked me to come to the consultation hall to invite a doctor to come to the house. I wonder which doctor is free now?"

When he heard that it was Madam Chu who wanted to invite the imperial physician, the head of the hospital was also panicked. Not only was the child in Madam Chu's belly now registered with the four major families, but she was also a living signboard of the consultation hall and Liuzhou Prefecture, and there could be no mistakes at all.

"Come on, I'll go with you," he said as he walked out the door, calling his child to take the medicine box and follow him.

When Butler Chu and the Dean returned to the Chu Mansion at full speed with a group of followers behind them, the old Patriarch Chu, who had received the news, was already sitting in the house waiting for him.

Seeing him come in, she couldn't wait to ask him to feel Madam Chu's pulse without waiting for him to catch his breath. "Head, you're here just in time. Hurry up and feel Madam's pulse. Ask the court doctor what's going on. She won't tell you and has to wait for the imperial physician to come and confirm."

The dean took a deep breath and calmed himself, then sat down in the seat vacated by the court physician and put his hand on Madam Chu's wrist that was on the pulse pillow.

After taking her pulse, he was shocked. Fearing that he had made a mistake, he took a deep breath and took her pulse again. "Madam, please use your other hand."

Seeing this scene, the old master Chu, who was usually known for his calmness, couldn't help but change his expression. He remembered that the last time he changed his expression was when he and his son jointly calculated the specific time of the birth of the four great families.

The personal nanny beside Madam Chu was so nervous that she covered her mouth directly, fearing that any sound would affect the chief doctor's pulse diagnosis. Everyone in the room looked at Madam Chu's slender wrist on the pulse pillow.

Just when the old master Chu could no longer hold back and was about to speak, the dean finally let go of Madam Chu's wrist, looked up and nodded slightly to the court physician who was waiting for his answer. Only then did a hint of a smile appear on their faces.

"What's going on? You two old guys should say something!" The old master Chu was so anxious that he spoke in the tone of the old Situ family.

The medical officer and the head of the hospital looked at each other again, and at the same time, they cupped their hands to the old master Chu, "Congratulations to Mr. Chu, Mr. Chu, and Mrs. Chu."

Ah, hearing this, everyone in the room was shocked. The head of the Chu family asked blankly, "Excuse me, where does the joy come from?"

"Mrs. Chu is pregnant with twins." The head of the courtyard said with a smile. The eldest princess of Liuzhou Prefecture is like a goddess. Not only did she make Mrs. Chu, who was over 30 years old, pregnant successfully, but she also gave birth to two babies at once. If this matter were to spread out, how much would people admire her?

After the head of the hospital finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. What was going on? The head of the hospital and the medical staff couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.

"Hahaha... twins? Great, great!" The old master Chu finally reacted and slapped his thigh, followed by a burst of hahaha laughter.

The head of the Chu family didn't even bother with etiquette as he stepped forward and embraced Madam Chu in his arms, his eyes so gentle that tears could drip from them.

The news that Mrs. Chu was pregnant with twins spread quickly throughout the capital, sparking another wave of heated discussions. Memorials from various states requesting the consultation hall to open branches poured into the desk of head of the Feng family like snowflakes.

Five days later, a group of light cavalry stopped at the gate of Liu's mansion, bringing three letters from the capital.

Meixiang raised her eyebrows in surprise. What was so urgent that soldiers were sent to deliver the letter? Of the two letters delivered to her, one was written by Wang Nei Shi and the other was written by Patriarch Feng. The other letter on the table was written by Patriarch Chu himself to Chu Zeming.

Seeing Chu Zeming, Feng Yizheng and Situ Yidong, who had just left and were hurriedly called back, Meixiang hurriedly handed the letter written by the old master Chu to Chu Zeming, "This is the letter just delivered by the soldiers. I don't know what is so urgent?"

At the same time, she raised the two letters in her hand that had not been opened yet, and handed the one written by the head of the Feng family to Feng Yizhen. Although it was clearly stated on the envelope that it was written to her, she still insisted on showing it to Feng Yizhen first. Which child who lives away from home doesn't look forward to letters from home from time to time?
