"Princess, Doctor Li is here." Yin Liu walked up to Pei Zhiyan and replied.

Aunt Yun hurried forward and said with a smile on her face, "I've just asked the court doctor to check it out. It's nothing serious. There's no need to bother Imperial Doctor Li. Please ask Imperial Doctor Li and the Prime Minister to go to the front hall for some tea."

Pei Zhiyan shook her head and said firmly, "How can that be possible? Since the imperial physician is here, let's let him take a look. He should prescribe some more tonic medicine for my sister so that she can take good care of herself."

Aunt Yun was a little anxious, and looked at Prime Minister Pei eagerly, "Prince, if we let the imperial physician diagnose the case, Prince Jing will definitely know about it. This happened in the Prime Minister's residence. If Prince Jing blames us, the Prime Minister's residence will also be involved. It's better to make a big deal out of a small matter."

"This is just an accident. However, if we keep it secret and let Prince Jing know about it in the future, it will be even more difficult to explain to him. It is better to let the imperial physician make a clear diagnosis." Pei Zhiyan said coldly.

Lord Prime Minister Pei frowned. Pei Zhiyan was right. Now that Imperial Doctor Li was here, if they didn't let Imperial Doctor Li take a look, it would be difficult to explain to Prince Jing if anything happened in the future.

So, he said helplessly, "Since the princess has said so, you can ask Doctor Li to take a look."

At this time, Pei Zhixuan was curled up on the bed, shivering, looking pitiful, her face was as pale as snow, sweat kept coming out of her forehead, soaking her hair.

She panted and waved her hands repeatedly, her voice weak and trembling, "No, no, you all want to harm me, I won't let you succeed."

Aunt Yun looked at Pei Zhixuan's condition, and her heart ached. She hurried forward, hugged Pei Zhixuan gently, and coaxed her softly, "Xuan'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay."

Pei Zhixuan finally began to relax, leaning weakly in Aunt Yun's arms, tears rolling down the corners of her eyes.

At this time, Aunt Yun said to Prime Minister Pei again, "Prince, you see, Concubine Xuan has been stimulated today and is emotionally unstable. It is better not to stimulate her anymore and let her have a good rest."

When Prime Minister Pei looked at Pei Zhixuan's condition, a trace of pain and helplessness flashed across his face.

Pei Zhiyan would not let them off so easily. She spoke slowly, "Concubine Xuan was pregnant with the heir to the throne, and now she has had a miscarriage. This is a big deal. Moreover, the court doctor just said that if it is not properly managed, it may affect future fertility. So, let's let Imperial Doctor Li take a look."

Pei Zhiyan glanced at the court physician as she spoke. The court physician's face was pale and sweaty at this moment. It was obvious that he was very frightened.

Aunt Yun quietly walked to Pei Zhiyan and whispered, "Princess, let's make this matter a small matter. If it gets to Prince Jing, it will be hard for you to explain."

Pei Zhiyan looked disdainful and said nonchalantly, "Since everyone thinks it is my fault that caused my sister's miscarriage, then I should do my best to take care of my sister's body to make up for my mistake. As for Prince Jing, I will take the responsibility."

Pei Zhixuan still wanted to act crazy, but Pei Zhiyan gave her a look, and Yin Liu, with a maid, came forward and held her down. She had always been spoiled, so she didn't have the strength to struggle.

"Doctor Li, please come in." Pei Zhiyan waved her hand gently, motioning Doctor Li to come forward.

So, Doctor Li walked to the bedside, sat down, and began to take Pei Zhixuan's pulse carefully.

At this time, the room was very quiet and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Finally, Doctor Li finished taking the pulse and slowly stood up. His face was a little solemn and he said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Concubine Xuan is just a little short of Qi and blood, and her menstruation is irregular. I will prescribe some Chinese medicine to regulate it."

After these words were spoken, Madam Pei and Prime Minister Pei in the room were stunned again. What on earth was going on?

Aunt Yun was panicked, but she pretended to be puzzled and walked forward, "Doctor Li, didn't Concubine Xuan have a miscarriage?"

"Concubine Xuan wasn't pregnant, so how could she have a miscarriage?" Doctor Li looked unhappy and answered firmly, "Concubine Xuan just had some deficiency of Qi and blood, and her body was a little weak. She will be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Doctor Li wrote down the prescription as he spoke. After he finished, he handed it to Yin Liu and said, "Just follow this prescription and get a few doses."

"That's good." Madam Pei breathed a sigh of relief. "I was worried that Xuan'er would develop a chronic illness."

"Old Madam, don't worry." Doctor Li comforted her, "The concubine is young, as long as she takes good care of herself, she will get better soon."

After listening to Doctor Li's explanation, Old Lady Pei breathed a sigh of relief. If Pei Zhixuan had a miscarriage in the Pei Mansion, regardless of whether it was Pei Zhiyan's fault or not, the Pei Mansion would be responsible.

"Princess, there is nothing to do here, so I will take my leave." Imperial Doctor Li said goodbye to Pei Zhiyan.

"Then I would like to thank you, Imperial Physician." Pei Zhiyan replied with a smile, "Yinliu, please send Imperial Physician Li off for me."

After Doctor Li left the room, Pei Zhiyan picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. "Tell me, what happened?"

The court doctor's legs were shaking like a sieve.

Aunt Yun muttered quietly, "Could it be that Doctor Li made a mistake?"

Pei Zhiyan rolled her eyes at her. She was still being stubborn at this time. She would not give up until she reached the Yellow River.

Pei Zhiyan said in a deep voice, "Doctor Li is a highly skilled doctor, and is ranked first in the Imperial Hospital. If you don't believe in his medical skills, I will invite all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital here."

Aunt Yun was choked by Pei Zhiyan's words and immediately stopped talking. She knew that Pei Zhiyan could do what she said, and she also knew that Doctor Li's medical skills were indeed extraordinary.

Pei Zhiyan stared at the court doctor again, with a hint of authority in her voice, "You decide, or do you want to suffer some physical pain?!"

The court doctor was overwhelmed by Pei Zhiyan's aura, terrified, and trembling all over. He fell to his knees with a plop, crying and begging: "I was negligent for a moment and did not make a careful diagnosis, which led to a big mistake. I am willing to be punished, and I beg the princess to spare my life."

Aunt Yun was anxious when she saw this, but she pretended to be angry on the surface. She gasped and said, "Do you know that the concubine's miscarriage is a serious matter? Because of your misdiagnosis, the princess was almost implicated. What's the point of keeping a quack like you?"

When the court doctor heard what Aunt Yun said, he was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body. He kowtowed and begged for mercy, "I know I was wrong. I beg the princess to spare my life. I am willing to take all the responsibility and will do my best to make amends."

Pei Zhiyan looked at the court doctor coldly, with a hint of disdain in her eyes. She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Are you willing to take responsibility? Is this responsibility something you can afford?"
