Doctor Chen took Lin Jiuqing's pulse very carefully.

Whether it is Lin Jiuqing or the child in Lin Jiuqing's belly, if anything goes wrong with either of them, his life will be over.

Before, Doctor Chen only thought that Lin Jiuqing was a favorite concubine, the apple of the Emperor's eye. But that day, when he heard the Crown Prince call her "mother", Doctor Chen realized that this Empress Chen was not as simple as he had imagined, and she was more than just a favorite concubine.

He had heard some rumors about the prince's origin before, and was somewhat curious about his biological mother, but this was a royal secret, and he would not dare to ask a single question even if he had ten heads.

Now it seems that the Crown Prince’s mysterious biological mother is both far away and close at hand.

If she was just a favored concubine, then she might fall out of favor in the future... But if she was the biological mother of the prince, then her status in the future would be indescribably noble.

After Doctor Chen returned, he studied Lin Jiuqing's physical condition again overnight, trying his best to avoid any mistakes.

After a while, Lin Jiuqing asked him softly, "Doctor Chen, how is it?"

Doctor Chen withdrew his hand, looked at Lin Jiuqing, and said carefully: "The Majesty's pulse is normal... However, it is not advisable to take too much of anything, just the right amount is enough."

Yingyue, who was standing by, heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, and quickly had the sour apricots on the table removed. She then said to Lin Jiuqing, "Only one plate a day from now on."

Lin Jiuqing: "..."

Okay, okay, she can understand.

Doctor Chen looked at Lin Jiuqing like this, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you like sour food?"

Lin Jiuqing nodded: "Yes, a little bit."

Doctor Chen nodded and said, "Your Highness, you can eat whatever you want, but be careful not to eat too much."

Before Lin Jiuqing could say anything, Yingyue asked again, "Don't you need to avoid certain foods?"

She grew up in the palace, but she remembered that in the previous dynasty, some concubines were pregnant and had to avoid many foods. They were not allowed to eat this or that and had to be very cautious.

Doctor Chen hesitated for a moment, then said: "In principle, there is no need to avoid certain foods. As long as Your Majesty eats well and sleeps well, that's better than anything else. But if Your Majesty wants to be more cautious, that's not the case..."

"No need to bother," Lin Jiuqing interrupted Doctor Chen and said with a smile, "In the past, I also learned some medical knowledge from Mr. Mu, so I can understand simple things."

"I'm glad that Your Majesty understands!" Doctor Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

He doesn't dare to say anything too final now, for fear of taking responsibility.

Lin Jiuqing also saw what he was thinking and did not make things difficult for him. He let him leave after taking his pulse.

After he left, Yingyue looked at Lin Jiuqing and asked tentatively: "Madam, do you really not need to avoid certain foods?"

Lin Jiuqing hummed, "Don't make a fuss, as if I'm pregnant with a fairy child. When a girl from an ordinary family is pregnant, she can hardly even get enough food and clothing, so why would she talk about diet restrictions? Just let nature take its course."

Yingyue knew that Lin Jiuqing was a man with his own ideas. After persuading him once, she stopped talking and just focused on serving Lin Jiuqing.

Now, she never leaves Lin Jiuqing's side, and she does all the personal service work herself, not daring to delegate it to others.

In the entire Lanyin Palace, up to now, only she and the leader of the secret guards squatting in the corner knew that Lin Jiuqing was pregnant.

She kept an eye on Lin Jiuqing's food, clothing, housing and transportation all day long, not daring to slack off for even a moment. The leader of the secret guards was even more concerned, not even daring to take a nap while on duty.
