The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Outside the East Palace, there were crowds of people.

Only Emperor Hongzhi and the Nine Ministers could enter the side hall, while the other ministers were outside the hall, whispering about it.

Although no one mentioned it, this matter was not only related to the struggle between the princes, but also to the appointment of a new Crown Princess, and everyone knew it.

Zeng Jian had a worried look on his face, and kept wiping the sweat off his neck with his hands.

Yan Chengjin lowered his head and pondered. He and Wang Ji had made a conclusion in front of the Queen Mother and His Majesty that the Crown Princess would be pregnant.

Now, it was time for the promise.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

The ministers were on both sides, and Queen Mother Zhou walked into the bedroom with the support of Queen Zhang.

The Crown Princess wanted to get up and salute, but was stopped by Queen Mother Zhou. She looked at Wang Ji: "Is the Crown Princess pregnant?"

"I haven't had time to feel her pulse yet." Wang Ji said.

Xie Qian glanced at Zeng Jian, shook his head slightly, and signaled him not to say more.

Entering the palace with Wang Ji was Tan Yunxian from Huimin Pharmacy, who was known as a female doctor.

Zeng Jian calmed down: "It's not that I don't believe Wang Ji, but if Wang Ji makes a wrong diagnosis, the whole court will be overjoyed or sad, which is not good."

Liu Jian nodded, Zhuge Liang also made mistakes.

Yan Chengjin stood up and said: "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, there are very few people who take pulses in a month. Why not let the imperial doctors take pulses together to avoid false alarms?"

If Wang Ji makes a wrong diagnosis, the law does not blame everyone.

Although Wang Ji was very confident, he decided to play it safe and pull three more people.

"What Mr. Yan said is very true!"

Not long after, Liu Wentai came with two judges from the Imperial Hospital, cursing.

The Empress Dowager and Your Majesty personally supervised, and all officials watched. If the diagnosis was wrong, not only would the reputation be ruined, but also the crime of deceiving the emperor would be charged.

Putting down the medicine box, they pushed each other and looked at each other: You come first?

The diagnosis result of the previous person will definitely affect the next person.

He said she was pregnant, but your diagnosis was not, so do you say she was pregnant or not?

Therefore, everyone wanted to be the last person to make a diagnosis. If many people said she was pregnant, then report that she was pregnant!

Yan Chengjin saw that no one wanted to come first, so he suggested: "Three imperial doctors, write down the results of the pulse diagnosis on paper, so that it will not affect other people's judgment. Imperial Doctor Liu will come first!"

What grudge do I have against you? Liu Wentai's face was pale, and he pretended to be calm and said: "Then I will come first."

He sat on the brocade stool and reached out to the wrist of the Crown Princess with both hands.

Emperor Hongzhi's face was tense, and his brows gradually wrinkled into a "川" shape, obviously very nervous.

Empress Dowager Zhou grabbed the hand of the nervous queen, and Liu Jian and Li Dongyang's hearts trembled for a moment, and then slowly beat faster and faster.

Yan Chengjin was also a little nervous.

Zhu Houzhao did not talk about the ethics of the room. He had slept with the Crown Princess many times in the past month. I hope he can hit the bull's eye.

This will determine the later period of the Ming Dynasty. In later generations, some historians believe that the Ming Dynasty began to fall during the Jiajing period.

If Zhu Houzhao could give birth to a grandson, everything would be different.

Liu Wentai's brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed. In the past, he only needed a moment to finish.

But today he was extremely cautious and diagnosed for a long time.

"How is Liu Qing's family?" Emperor Hongzhi couldn't wait any longer.

Liu Wentai reluctantly withdrew his hand: "I will write it down now."

The little eunuch brought up the pen and ink. He wrote a few words on the paper, folded it into a square, and placed it on the brocade plate.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the brocade plate, but did not rush to open it. One person's opinion was meaningless.

Huang Shoujing put down the medicine box. He was a famous doctor in northern Shaanxi. He was summoned to the palace to practice medicine in his early years.

Now, he is a judge in the palace, and his medical skills are considered second only to Liu Wentai.

He took the pulse with two fingers, put it on the crown princess's wrist for a moment, sighed, and wrote the diagnosis on the brocade plate.

"Huang Qing's family, the result is not good?" Empress Dowager Zhou asked with concern.

"No, I wrote it on the paper."

Since he could not affect others' diagnosis, he did not say much and stood aside.

Wang Suhe walked forward and sat on the brocade stool. He was born in Jiangnan and was good at acupuncture. He was also called Wang Guizhen.

Except for the thumb, all four fingers were placed on the wrist of the Crown Princess. His pulse-taking method was special.

"Well, I have a conclusion."

He wrote the diagnosis on the brocade plate. I don't know what he wrote. The little eunuch holding the brocade plate changed his face.

Emperor Hongzhi was so nervous that he could hear the sound of his heartbeat, and his chest vibrated like a drum.

The ministers were like this, and the sweat in their palms became more and more.

It's Wang Ji's turn!

Wang Ji sat on the brocade stool, not in a hurry to take the pulse, but asked the Crown Princess to sit up.

Then he stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the Crown Princess's pulse, as if looking for something.

After a moment, he stood up. Among the four people, he was the fastest.

Yan Chengjin rebuked, "How can you be so contemptuous? Call me again."

This could cost you your head. Although I have a golden medal of immunity from death, it will also affect my promotion to the cabinet.

Wang Ji bowed slightly and said in embarrassment, "I have already called my name. Calling my name again will not change it."

As he spoke, he wrote a few words on the slip of paper.

It was Tan Yunxian's turn to call her last. The Queen Mother saw that she was unfamiliar: "Are you a doctor from the market?"

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, Yunxian is a female doctor in the capital, and her medical skills are not inferior to my students." Wang Ji reported.

Not everyone is qualified to consult the royal family.

Tan Yunxian bowed slightly: "Yunxian is the daughter of Tan Gang in the court, and was entrusted by Lord Yan to enter the palace."

Queen Mother Zhou nodded and said nothing more.

Tan Yunxian pulled out the Crown Princess's hand and left it there for a while, as if waiting for her pulse to stabilize before putting it back.

Soon, he wrote down the diagnosis on the brocade plate.

Emperor Hongzhi and his ministers looked at the brocade plate nervously. It was time to reveal the answer on the slips.

Has the prince's illness been cured?

Xiao Jing walked over and picked up the first slip.

"Liu Yuyi's diagnosis is that the Crown Princess is not pregnant!"

Zeng Jian's feet were unstable and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he was helped by Han Wen.

Emperor Hongzhi saw that Queen Mother Zhou looked unhappy and urged: "No need to stop, read all!"

Liu Jian and others were full of expectations.

Xiao Jing took out all the slips and opened them one by one:

"Huang Yuyi's diagnosis is that the Crown Princess is pregnant!"

"Wang Yuyi's diagnosis is that the Crown Princess is pregnant!"

"Wang Ji's diagnosis is that the Crown Princess is pregnant!"

"Tan Yunxian's diagnosis is that the Crown Princess is pregnant!"

Yan Chengjin was a little confused. There were only two options. Liu Wentai, you successfully avoided the correct answer?

At first, when Emperor Hongzhi heard Liu Wentai's diagnosis, his face was as pale as a pig's liver, but after hearing four pieces of good news in succession, his face gradually relaxed.

Zeng Jian breathed a sigh of relief, his face full of joy.

Liu Wentai was anxious, blushing and said: "I may have misdiagnosed, why not let me diagnose the Crown Princess again?"

"No need." Emperor Hongzhi looked at the record officer with a cold face: "Write it down and send it to the History Museum."

Yan Chengjin knew that the late Ming Dynasty was completely different.

Empress Dowager Zhou stepped forward with relief and took the Crown Princess's hand: "These days, you stay in the East Palace, don't run around, I will send someone to serve you."

"Thank you for your favor, the Queen Mother." The Crown Princess seemed to have escaped from death, and a mist appeared in her eyes.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Where is the prince!"

"Reporting to your majesty, he left the palace and went to Liangxiang." The little eunuch trembled.

Emperor Hongzhi snorted lightly, and Empress Zhang gestured to him to be patient, so she didn't get angry.
