Chapter 218 It’s impossible for you to get pregnant within six months.
When Huo Chuping broke into Biying Courtyard with a group of maids and old women, Yi Jingshi was enjoying Xu Ying's service of feeding him food and soup at the dinner table.
Xu Ying was very humble and served Yi Jingshi like a maid.
Yi Jingshi was fascinated by this feeling of being superior. He was squinting his eyes and tasting the delicious soup in his mouth.
"princess."
When Xu Ying saw Huo Chuping coming in, she quickly stood up and greeted her.
Yi Jingshi opened his eyes and asked Huo Chuping:
"How did you come?"
Yi Jingshi was quite satisfied with Huo Chuping as his principal wife and gave her due respect.
Although she is a little jealous sometimes, it's understandable as a woman, she does pretty well in other aspects.
Huo Chuping was able to gain a foothold in the Second Prince's Palace, which naturally showed that she had the courage and means to do so.
She glanced at Xu Ying and said slowly:
"I just came to see what good things Concubine Xu had that tripped up the prince and made me wait for so long."
Yi Jingshi then remembered that today was the beginning of the month and he should have dinner and stay overnight in the courtyard of Huo Chuping, the main wife.
He stood up and said to Xu Ying:
"The food you prepared tastes good. I am very satisfied with it. I will have someone deliver the gift I promised you later."
After saying that, Yi Jingshi stood up and left.
Huo Chuping looked at Xu Ying meaningfully and followed Yi Jingshi away.
Xu Ying was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She had worked for so long in vain, but the prince only ate a few bites and finally left.
Huo Chuping has given birth to two sons and one daughter, including the eldest son.
Another concubine, You Danzhu, also gave birth to a son.
Yi Jingshi has spent quite a bit of time staying at Biying Courtyard, but until now, there has been no sign of pregnancy in Xu Ying's belly.
The imperial physician had examined her before and said that she was in good health and could conceive.
Xu Ying wondered if someone had set her up against him.
The next day, Xu Ying asked her trusted maid to go back to her parents' home and ask her mother to find a reliable doctor to check her health when she returned.
The result was as she expected. After the examination, the doctor said:
“There is an excess of musk in your body, and it will be impossible for you to get pregnant within six months.
If you continue to take it, in another year, you will never be able to have children in your life."
Xu Ying was shocked. She had been very careful. "How could this happen?"
The doctor explained: "It could be in your diet, in your room, or on your clothes. As long as there is musk somewhere you can touch, it is possible over time."
After returning to Biying Courtyard, Xu Ying called her trusted maids and old women to check every place inside and outside the house to see if there was anything wrong.
The maid who was in charge of the laundry discovered that the scent of some of the clothes was unusual.
A woman pointed to a pot of flowers that Xu Ying liked very much and said:
"Concubine, the soil in this flowerpot seems to have been disturbed."
Xu Ying told the maids and servants not to tell anyone. She took a piece of clothing, packed a small bag of soil from a flowerpot, and asked someone to send it back to her parents' home.
Soon, I received a reply from my parents' home saying that there was musk on my clothes and in the soil as well.
Xu Ying asked someone to quietly wash the clothes and change the soil in the flowerpot.
Then she began to investigate all the maids and servants in her courtyard.
It would be impossible for someone to do something in her yard without her help, so she must find the traitor.
Following the clues, they finally found two problematic maids. However, Xu Ying did not deal with them immediately, but left them alone and secretly ordered people to keep an eye on them and make sure to catch them in the act.
Xu Ying came to Lianzhuyuan, the home of another concubine, You Danzhu. She wanted to remind You Danzhu to be careful of the people around her.
Their common enemy made them temporary friends.
As soon as she arrived at Lianzhuyuan, she saw the yard was in chaos.
She grabbed a maid and asked her, only to find out that it was You Danzhu's only son, Yun Ge'er, who suddenly foamed at the mouth while playing, his eyes were blank, and he didn't respond when asked.
You Danzhu was terrified and kept asking people to call a doctor.
Yi Jingshi is not at home, so if you want to see a doctor, you need to inform Huo Chuping.
After Huo Chuping knew about this, she said slowly:
"Time is precious, let's ask the court doctor to check on the child first."
You Danzhu became even more frightened when she heard this, because everyone knew that the court doctor was Huo Chuping's man.
She knelt down in front of Huo Chuping in a hurry:
"Princess, please save the child. He is unconscious. We cannot delay any longer."
Huo Chuping was angry: "What do you mean? Isn't the court doctor a doctor? Since you don't need a doctor, then go back and don't get in my way."
You Danzhu had no choice but to take the court doctor back.
Let's check it out first. I believe the court doctor wouldn't dare to do anything under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Let’s wait until the prince comes back.
After examining Yun Ge'er, the court doctor said to You Danzhu:
“Concubine You, the young master must have eaten some poisonous fruit by mistake. Even though he seems to be in a serious condition now, the fruit is actually not very poisonous.
I'll prescribe a prescription for you. You should be fine after taking two doses."
Under You Danzhu's stern gaze, the court physician carefully wrote a prescription and immediately took his leave.
Oh my god, Concubine You’s eyes are so scary, as if she wants to eat him.
After getting the medicine back, You Danzhu personally watched the maid boil the medicine, let it cool down, and gave it to Yun Ge'er to drink. Sure enough, he felt much better.
Only then did You Danzhu breathe a sigh of relief.
You Danzhu saw Xu Ying when she just entered the hospital, but she was busy taking care of her child and had no time to greet Xu Ying.
She said to Xu Ying apologetically:
"Concubine Xu, I'm sorry to neglect you."
Xu Ying smiled generously:
"You're too polite. I don't have anything to do. I feel embarrassed for standing there for a long time and not being able to help."
After saying this, she gave You Danzhu a wink.
You Danzhu glanced at the old woman beside her, and she took all the servants out of the room.
"Concubine You, I came here today to tell you something."
Xu Ying then told the story about Musk:
"Concubine You, I haven't even had a child yet, and I've already been plotted against.
Now that you have a child, you must protect him well. Without a child to support us, how can we survive in the future?
If our prince can go one step further, and we have no children and are old and ugly, how will we live?"
You Danzhu sat down with her hands on her chest because she felt very depressed.
She seemed to have suddenly thought of something, stood up abruptly, and asked the maid beside her:
"How is Brother Yun? Forget it, I'd better go and check it out myself."
After saying that, she went to the child's room in a hurry.
Xu Ying left Lianzhuyuan. You Danzhu is a smart person and should know what to do to benefit herself.
She should think about what to do in the future.
The next day, Lianzhuyuan was in turmoil again. Xu Ying heard that Yun Ge'er's condition had worsened and he was vomiting and having diarrhea.
Yi Jingshi happened to be at home, and he immediately asked someone to invite two imperial doctors.
The imperial physician has finished the diagnosis, but hasn’t said what’s wrong with the child.
Huo Chuping ran into Lianzhu Courtyard:
"Your Highness, please ask the imperial physician to check on Yunchen. He keeps complaining of a headache and is sweating all over his head. He has already gone to bed."
When Yi Jingshi heard this, he immediately took two imperial doctors to Huo Chuping's courtyard.
Yunchen is Yi Jingshi’s eldest son.
You Danzhu was so angry that her heart, liver and lungs ached. She at least asked the imperial physician to tell her what happened to Brother Yun before leaving.
But she didn't dare to keep the imperial physician, nor did she dare to stop Yi Jingshi, so she had to wait patiently for the imperial physician to finish examining Huo Chuping's son.
