After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju

Chapter 70: Killing

The queen took a sip of tea. The tea leaves, which had been well preserved after being exposed to the sun in the summer, were soaked in boiling dew water and left a lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth.

Her mood also became very good.

"Yes, anyone who can catch the eye of Concubine Hua must be good. I believe that under Doctor Chen's care, Concubine Shen will be able to conceive a child of the Aisin-Gioro clan soon."

Concubine Qi nodded, "Yes, I think so too."

The Queen looked at An Lingrong and said, "An agreed. What do you think?"

An agreed with a stiff smile, "I think so too."

........

In the northwest, the temperature started to drop and snow began to fall in November. Doctor Chen from Qinghai was unable to come due to weather reasons.

Concubine Hua asked Songzhi to pass on the message, telling Shen Meizhuang to wait patiently.

After waiting for a few days, Shen Meizhuang began to get anxious.

She went to find Zhen Huan, "Xuan Huan'er, the doctor Chen invited by Concubine Hua has not come yet. I don't know why, but I feel uneasy."

Zhen Huan saw Shen Meizhuang's worried expression and asked, "Sister, have you been under too much pressure recently? Or... are you worried about the imperial physician Chen that Concubine Hua invited?"

Seeing that there was no outsider in the room, Shen Meizhuang nodded.

"Yes. Huan'er, to be honest, since Concubine Hua entered the palace, she has indeed never harmed you or me in the slightest. But the rumors outside are too much. Everyone is privately talking about how she poisoned Concubine Duan in the past and how she bullied the concubines who entered the palace. I have heard so much of this that I am always a little scared. I am afraid that Concubine Hua is that smiling Bodhisattva and will kill us in private."

"Sister Huan'er understands your feelings." Zhen Huan held Shen Meizhuang's hand, "If you are really worried, we can find another imperial physician."

Zhen Huan thought of Wen Shichu, "How about asking Doctor Wen to come and help you?"

Shen Meizhuang knew that Zhen Huan and Wen Shichu were old acquaintances, so she felt relieved.

After Wen Shichu arrived, he took Shen Meizhuang's pulse carefully.

"My young master is in good health, don't worry."

Zhen Huan asked: "Since you are healthy, why hasn't Sister Mei gotten pregnant yet?"

Wen Shichu frowned and thought, "Maybe it's due to physical constitution. Some people get pregnant easily, while others don't. I've only dabbled in this area, and I'm not an expert yet."

Wen Shichu's words made Shen Meizhuang's heart sink to the bottom of the sea again.

Seeing that she was frowning again, Zhen Huan hurriedly asked Wen Shichu, "Doctor Wen, can you prescribe some medicine for Sister Mei to regulate her body?"

Wen Shichu said, "Okay. But I still need to study and improve on this aspect. Please go back and look up more medical books before prescribing a prescription for Concubine Shen."

Zhen Huan looked at Shen Meizhuang. Shen Meizhuang had no other choice but to follow Zhen Huan's opinion.

A few days later, Doctor Wen still hadn't come to Cunju Hall, and Shen Meizhuang began to worry again. Every time she went to pay respects to the empress dowager, the empress dowager would always talk about how Concubine Fucha's pregnancy was, and at the same time urge her to work harder.

Shen Meizhuang responded calmly on the surface, but she was actually very anxious.

Another day, Shen Meizhuang waited a long time for Doctor Wen to come, so she asked Caiyue to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask. Caiyue came back and said that Doctor Wen had been ordered to leave the capital to treat an old prince, and it would take at least more than a month for him to come back.

Shen Meizhuang sighed, "Is it really my destiny to not have children?"

"Sister, you seem worried. Is there something troubling you?" Concubine Qi entered Cunju Hall so quickly that the palace maids and eunuchs did not have time to report back. She had already walked in and saw Shen Meizhuang.

Shen Meizhuang was quite surprised to see Concubine Qi suddenly come to see her, and hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Greetings to Concubine Qi."

Concubine Qi walked over with a smile and helped Shen Meizhuang up.

"Hurry up and get up. I see you're not feeling well, so don't be so formal."

"Then please take a seat, Madam Concubine Qi."

Shen Meizhuang asked Concubine Qi to sit down first before she took her seat.

"When I came in just now, I heard you talking about having children or not? Could it be that my sister is having good news?" Concubine Qi asked Shen Meizhuang with a smile.

Seeing Concubine Qi smiling at her, Shen Meizhuang knew that Concubine Qi must have heard what she had just said. She felt a little embarrassed.

"My Lady Concubine Qi, please forgive me for making fun of you. How can such a good thing happen to me?"

"So my sister is worried about this?"

"Yes." Shen Meizhuang nodded.

Concubine Qi sighed softly, "There's no rush for this kind of thing, so don't worry, sister."

Shen Meizhuang said: "I can only feel relieved."

Concubine Qi seemed to have remembered something. "I remember that I know a doctor named Liu. I heard that he is the best at treating infertility in women. If you need it, I can introduce him to you."

Shen Meizhuang's eyes lit up, "Is Imperial Doctor Liu really good at this?"

Concubine Qi said: "Those who have been treated by him will become pregnant within a month."

Shen Meizhuang said happily: "Then please help me introduce Dr. Liu to me, Madam."

Concubine Qi looked embarrassed, and Shen Meizhuang asked if there was anything difficult.

Concubine Qi said, "This Imperial Doctor Liu has a strange temper. If you see him and go to see another doctor during the recuperation period, he will not treat you again."

Shen Meizhuang thought it was something difficult, but it turned out to be this.

"If Imperial Physician Liu is willing to treat my illness and take care of my body, I will definitely not hire another Imperial Physician while I am taking his prescriptions."

Concubine Qi smiled with relief.

"Mrs. Shen is indeed a knowledgeable and reasonable person. I will ask Imperial Doctor Liu to come and check your pulse tomorrow morning."

"Then I'll trouble Concubine Qi."

Seeing that so many days had passed and Imperial Physician Chen had still not arrived in the capital, Concubine Hua was worried that Shen Meiyu would be anxious and think too much, so she went to Cunju Hall in person to explain the matter.

As soon as he stepped into the door of Cunju Hall, he saw Concubine Qi coming out.

Concubine Qi also saw Concubine Hua.

"Your concubine pays respects to Her Majesty Hua Fei." After all, Qi Fei was a little intimidated by Hua Fei, so she quickly bowed when she saw her.

Concubine Hua glanced at her calmly, "Concubine Qi, shouldn't you be in Changchun Palace accompanying the Third Prince to study?"

Concubine Qi smiled and replied, "The Empress had a headache, so she sent someone to fetch me to serve her, and the Emperor released me from my confinement."

"The Queen is thinking about you." Concubine Hua curled the corners of her lips slightly and strode into Cunju Hall.

When Shen Meizhuang heard Concubine Hua's voice, she hurried out from the inner room.

"Greetings to Her Majesty Hua Fei."

"Good sister, get up quickly."

Concubine Hua stepped forward and helped Shen Meizhuang up.

Shen Meizhuang hurriedly welcomed Concubine Hua into the house and asked her to sit down.

Concubine Qi looked at their backs, smiled coldly, and murmured in a low voice, "The show is about to begin."

"It's snowing in the northwest recently. The person I sent to pick up Doctor Chen sent a quick reply saying that Doctor Chen accidentally fell off his horse during a snowstorm on the way and might not arrive until later."

"So that's how it is. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern for me." Shen Meizhuang was hesitating whether to tell Concubine Hua that she had asked Imperial Physician Liu to see her.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to tell Concubine Hua the truth, "Your Majesty, I think we should just forget it. There is a snowstorm in the northwest, and Doctor Chen is old. If he rushes here in such a hurry, I am afraid something might happen."
