After picking up a childbirth system, I pampered the harem

The imperial doctor hadn't arrived yet, but Emperor Jiaqing came first.

He asked the maid serving Jiang Wan to notify him as soon as Jiang Wan woke up.

When he heard the news that Jiang Wan had woken up, he rushed over immediately.

"My beloved concubine, how are you?" Emperor Jiaqing approached, sat beside Jiang Wan's bed, and asked about her physical condition with concern.

"I am not feeling well and cannot get up to say hello. Please forgive me." Jiang Wan saw him and apologized to him.

"My dear concubine, you are weak, so you don't have to salute me. I forgive you." Emperor Jiaqing was not an unreasonable person, not to mention that Jiang Wan was injured while trying to save herself. How could he blame her.

Those are just false courtesy.

"How do you feel now? Does the wound still hurt?" Emperor Jiaqing asked again.

"Your Majesty, my concubine's wound hurts so much..." Seeing that he cared about her, Jiang Wan couldn't help but want to act coquettishly to him, hoping to make him feel sorry for her.

What's more, she didn't lie, she did feel the wound hurt.

Sure enough, when he heard her say it hurt, Emperor Jiaqing felt heartbroken. He turned to the people serving in the room and said, "Didn't you hear Concubine Hui say it hurt? Why don't you go and ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look at Concubine Hui!"

"If you want to return to the emperor, I've already gone to invite you." Lu'e heard the words and whispered back.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Ping, who went to ask for the imperial doctor, came back, followed by Xiao He, the imperial doctor who was carrying a medicine box.

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here," Jinping said.

Seeing Emperor Jiaqing here, Imperial Doctor Xiao He was about to salute, but was interrupted by Emperor Jiaqing.

"Come here and check for Concubine Hui to see if the wound is infected. Concubine Hui said the wound hurts!"

Upon hearing this, Imperial Doctor Xiao He withdrew his salute, came to the bedside and said to Jiang Wan on the bed: "My queen, please stretch out your hand, and I will take your pulse."

After hearing what Dr. Xiao He said, Jiang Wan stretched out a hand and asked him to help feel the pulse.

Seeing this, Lu E on the side took out a clean handkerchief and put it on Jiang Wan's wrist before stepping aside.

This was not the first time for Jiang Wan to see an imperial doctor, so he naturally knew the meaning of Lu E's behavior.

The concubines in the harem are the emperor's women, and their status is extremely noble. Naturally, their hands cannot be touched by other men, not even the imperial physicians.

In order to prevent physical contact between the imperial doctors and the concubines, when taking the pulse, a veil would be placed on the concubines' wrists, and the imperial physicians would take their pulse through the veil, thus avoiding physical contact with them.

But that's not always the case. For example, Jiang Wan's wounds were caused by the imperial doctor helping to remove the arrows, apply medicine and bandage for her. After all, it was a last resort, so no one would say anything.

But that's because Jiang Wan's injury was on his shoulder, not a more private part.

If it were in the palace, if the injury was in a more private part, then a female doctor would have to do it.

The Imperial Hospital is not all men. There are also a few female doctors. However, the medical skills of the female doctors are not as high as those of the male doctors. They are better at women's gynecological diseases.

After Doctor Xiao He took Jiang Wan's pulse, he withdrew his hand, and then said to Emperor Jiaqing: "Your Majesty is fine. Because the wound is deep, it is normal to feel pain. You will not feel pain when the wound starts to heal." ”

If it weren't for the high status of the person in front of him, who was the emperor of Yan, Imperial Doctor Xiao He would have wanted to roll his eyes at him.

Although Jiang Wan's wound has been treated with medicine, it is not a panacea. It can heal the wound instantly. Her wound is so deep that it is normal to feel pain.

This is common sense, presumably everyone knows it.

Emperor Jiaqing has always been wise, how could he not know that caring is nothing more than chaos.

However, Imperial Doctor Xiao He also found it very strange to see Emperor Jiaqing like this, but this also showed that Emperor Jiaqing cared about Jiang Wan.

Emperor Jiaqing felt relieved when Doctor Xiao He said that Jiang Wan was fine. He looked at Jiang Wan who was still very weak lying on the bed, and coaxed softly: "My beloved, please bear with it, he will be gone in two days." It hurts so much.”

Jiang Wan also knew that it was normal for the wound to hurt, but she felt the pain, so she wanted him to comfort her.

She didn't know if it was because she suffered a serious crime, but her heart became much more fragile. At this moment, she felt like a child, wanting to be coaxed.

"Yeah." Jiang Wan hummed softly and stopped crying about pain.

Doctor Xiao He prescribed medicine, but Jiang Wan hadn't woken up yet, so the medicine hadn't been given to her yet. Now that Jiang Wan woke up, Jin Ping went to get the medicine.

The medicine had been prepared long ago and kept warm on the stove, waiting for Jiang Wan to wake up and drink it.

Seeing Jinping coming to the bed with a bowl of dark medicine, Emperor Jiaqing stretched out his hand towards her and said, "Let me come."

Hearing his words, Jinping was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and gave the bowl to him.

Emperor Jiaqing took the bowl, picked up a spoon and scooped out a spoonful of medicine. When it was no longer so hot, he put the spoon to Jiang Wan's lips and said softly: "Come on, ah - open your mouth."

Seeing the dark soup in the bowl, Jiang Wan could fully imagine its bitterness even though he hadn't drank it yet.

In addition to being afraid of pain, what she fears most is drinking bitter medicine. When she was sick when she was a child, her parents and brother always tried their best to coax her into taking medicine, and even promised her many conditions.

Originally, Jiang Wan was afraid of drinking medicine, but when she saw the man feeding her herself, she was a little flattered. When she met his gentle and watery eyes, she opened her mouth unconsciously.

But as soon as she took the medicine, she almost choked and wrinkled her face.

"Cough, cough, it's so painful!"

No wonder they say good medicine is bitter. All medicines are extremely bitter, but she has never seen any medicine that is not bitter.

Seeing that she was choking, Emperor Jiaqing hurriedly put the spoon back into the bowl, and used his free hand to gently help her.

"Drink slowly, don't be in a hurry."

As he spoke, he ordered the maid in the room: "Bring some candied fruits here."

In fact, the candied fruits had been prepared a long time ago, so as soon as he finished speaking, Lu E came forward with a small plate containing candied fruits, picked up one from the plate and handed it to Jiang Wan's mouth.

"Your Majesty, you won't feel bitter after eating a candied fruit."

Jiang Wan was now relieved. After hearing Lu'e's words, she opened her mouth obediently and took the candied fruit into her mouth.

The candied fruit in the mouth is sweet but not greasy, which dilutes the bitterness in the mouth very well.

"Come on, continue." Emperor Jiaqing saw that she had finished eating the candied fruit, so he scooped up another spoonful of soup and brought it to her.

"Your Majesty, this medicine is too bitter." Jiang Wan looked at the spoon that was close to him and was somewhat repelled.

"If you feel bitter, take a bite of candied fruit, and this one won't feel bitter." Emperor Jiaqing coaxed.

I knew she didn't like taking bitter medicine, but there was nothing I could do about it. How could she get better quickly if she didn't take medicine?

"Okay then." Jiang Wan also knew that he had to drink this medicine, so he finally compromised.

In this way, she drank the medicine in one mouthful and the preserves in the other, and finally finished the medicine.

After rinsing her mouth with water to remove the medicinal smell from her mouth, she felt relieved.

"Are you so afraid of drinking bitter medicine?" Emperor Jiaqing couldn't help but chuckle.

He had also taken medicine when he was sick, but it didn't have as big a reaction as hers, and he didn't even need candied fruit.

However, Emperor Jiaqing could understand that girls' families all like sweets and don't like bitter things.

"My concubine has been most afraid of drinking bitter medicine since she was a child." Jiang Wan nodded and said.

"Good medicine tastes bitter." Emperor Jiaqing could only comfort her like this.

How could Jiang Wan not know this truth, but the medicine was too unpleasant to drink, so she couldn't be blamed.
