Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem
Chapter 223: Promotion to Lingpin
"Doctor Qi is old. As long as Jiang Yubin is overthrown, you will definitely have a place in the Imperial Hospital. With wealth and honor right before your eyes, why are you afraid to take a step forward?"
Seeing that Doctor Lu pursed his lips tightly, as if he had something to hide, Concubine Cheng was puzzled, but she continued to press on,
"I have gone to so much trouble to trap Jiang Yubin, not to let you sit here and do nothing.
You have always been careful, careful and efficient in doing things. This is your strength and you must not lose it easily.
The emperor may have something to ask you later, let's go in."
Doctor Lu wanted to explain something, but when he looked up, he saw Concubine Cheng walking into the palace with confident steps.
But as soon as she lifted the curtain, she saw a slightly hunched figure saying something to the emperor.
"Imperial Physician Qi? Why are you in Chengqian Palace?" The words flew out of Concubine Cheng's mouth earlier than her thoughts.
Ruyi raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a half-smile, "Oh? Why can't Doctor Qi be here?"
Concubine Cheng knew she had said something wrong, so she smiled and said, "The Empress and I have been staying in Chengqian Palace, and we have never seen Doctor Qi come, so we are naturally a little surprised."
Although this reason was far-fetched, it was enough to get away with it.
In the blink of an eye, Xing'er came to report happily that Wei Yanwan had woken up.
Concubine Cheng felt as if struck by lightning, and her eyes were as sharp as a knife as she cut at Doctor Lu.
But Doctor Lu just lowered his head, and the shadow under the brim of his hat hid his expression very well.
The panic enveloped Concubine Cheng, making it almost impossible for her to breathe. But now, no one cared about her anymore.
Wei Yanwan's heavy bleeding had stopped. Although she was still a little weak, she had woken up.
The emperor sat on the edge of the bed, touched her little face with his hand lovingly, and then held the princess in his arms to show her, "My dear lady, thank you for your hard work.
Although the princess was a little weak when she was born, Doctor Qi is very skilled and she is fine now."
Wei Yanwan, wearing a royal blue cat-eye headband, said in a hoarse but gentle voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sending Imperial Physician Qi to Chengqian Palace today to prescribe medicine for me.
If it weren’t for the fact that Doctor Qi was so careful and attentive, and hadn’t taken the trouble to stay in the palace for a long time for my prescription, and hadn’t happened to be in premature labor, how could I and the princess have saved our lives and lived up to the emperor’s grace…”
Hearing Wei Yanwan's voice becoming more and more choked up, the emperor could only comfort her, "You are already my mother, why do you still love to cry so much?"
"Your Highness's appearance is very similar to that of me when I gave birth to Yongji. Both of us were filled with fear and joy, with a loving mother's heart."
Ruyi smiled and said jokingly, "The Emperor once said that after your noble lady gives birth, her position will be promoted. I wonder if this is still valid?"
"A gentleman's word is his bond." The emperor laughed loudly, "Your Highness has been rewarded for giving birth to an heir to the Emperor, so you shall be promoted to the rank of concubine. The princess shall be named Jingyan."
There was harmony and joy in Chengqian Palace, except for Concubine Cheng, who stood aside anxiously.
Ruyi used the excuse of taking the princess downstairs to find a wet nurse to feed her, and exchanged glances with Wei Yanwan before leaving. Wei Yanwan took advantage of the moment when she was alone with the emperor and cried and complained about Concubine Cheng.
The emperor was furious. Although Concubine Cheng was pregnant, he still punished her to be confined to her house for three months. As for Yancao, she would interrogate Wei Yanwan personally after she was out of confinement.
After getting the emperor's approval, Wei Yanwan felt comforted and the smile on her face became even sweeter.
After the emperor left, Xing'er brought another bowl of tranquilizer, "My dear, this time it's not an abortion-inducing drug, it's a tranquilizer prepared by Doctor Qi himself.
I have sent someone to watch it. There are many good things added to it to strengthen your body and replenish your energy. Please drink it quickly."
Wei Yanwan drank the medicine cleanly and held a piece of ginseng in her mouth. Then she lay back in her quilt as if exhausted.
"My Lord, this move is too risky. Although Imperial Doctor Qi gave you acupuncture and prepared Dingkun Dan for you according to the Queen's instructions, it is you and the princess who are taking the risk in the end."
Xing'er wiped Wei Yanwan's hands with a soft cloth with concern, muttering to herself.
"The princess is weak, and I am bleeding heavily. Although it looks dangerous, I am also sympathetic to the emperor.
If not, how could His Majesty be willing to give Concubine Cheng face and hand over the Yancao to me for disposal."
Knowing that Xing'er meant well, Wei Yanwan was also afraid.
If Concubine Cheng and Yancao escaped easily today, she would be truly unwilling to accept it.
Dingkun Dan is a good thing. In her previous life, Ruyi saw Qi Ru using it when Hai Lan was bleeding heavily during childbirth.
Wei Yanwan's heavy bleeding was different from the general situation.
She was forced to give birth before her due date, so the actual symptoms were not as scary as they sounded. Therefore, the effect of Dingkun Dan was greatly enhanced.
It sounds extremely sinister, but in fact most of it was directed and acted by Wei Yanwan herself to scare the emperor.
After getting rid of a worry and feeling exhausted from taking the medicine, Wei Yanwan finally fell into a deep sleep with a smile on her face.
One month flies by in a blink of an eye.
Wei Yanwan was wearing a lotus-red dress with julibrissin flowers and was leaning on the couch, eating the rose milk puff that Xing'er had just made.
"My master's appetite is getting better and better. It seems that the confinement period was very good and he has recovered all the necessary nutrients."
Wei Yanwan didn't care about Xing'er's teasing. After swallowing the cake in her mouth, she glanced at her proudly and said, "I was plotted against while I was pregnant. If I hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid not only the princess, but also I would have suffered a serious loss of health.
Now that I have finished my confinement, I can send the damned to hell right away. How can I not be happy and have a poor appetite?"
She kept in mind what Ruyi said to Wei Yanwan before the southern tour.
With Ruyi's secret help, Wei Yanwan soon discovered from Doctor Qi that her medicine had been tampered with.
The cinnabar lotus is actually a good thing, but medicine is poisonous to the point of being toxic. No matter how good the medicine is, if the dosage is wrong, it may have the opposite effect.
Someone deliberately changed the amount of medicinal materials that Wei Yanwan was supposed to boil into one bowl, instead of three bowls of water, to one and a half bowls.
If the decocting time is too short, the medicinal properties will naturally be affected.
The effect of Cinnabar Lotus, which was originally used to replenish the kidney energy of pregnant women, was greatly reduced, which led to Wei Yanwan's weakened kidney energy, yellow face and weight loss.
Even the originally healthy fetus in the womb cannot absorb nutrients due to the weakness of the mother and is no longer as strong as before.
Because the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and the Empress were not in the palace, although Concubine Chun and Concubine Yu had the power to assist in managing the six palaces, they were ultimately restricted in what they could do.
In order not to alert the enemy, Wei Yanwan did not make the news public as soon as she got the news, but chose to investigate secretly.
This careful inspection indeed allowed her to discover a clue.
It turned out to be the Imperial Doctor Lu who secretly bribed the young palace maid in the Chengqian Palace's kitchen and deliberately taught her to reduce the time for decocting medicine, deceiving her that it would help Wei Yanwan replenish her kidney energy faster and regain her favor.
