Chapter 64: Chapter 64 Congratulations Prince, Greetings Prince
“Our Princess Consort is skilled in medicine herself, she doesn’t need another physician!”
Chun Tao defended her mistress, thinking she must somehow muddle through and not let the news of her mistress’s pregnancy become public.
Zhen Zhu was determined to bring the matter to light; she directly looked at Jun Yuyan, “Prince, it’s better to have the Mansion Physician take a look. The Princess Consort has been suffering silently with some ailments before, medicating herself; it’s really heartbreaking.”
“Why not call the Mansion Physician to give the Princess Consort a thorough check?” General Fu said, seeing Murong Jiu’s pale face as she dry heaved, feeling an inexplicable pang of heartache.
The three brothers of the Fu family also frowned deeply, almost going to fetch the Mansion Physician themselves.
It’s just a stomach upset, what’s there to make such a fuss about!
...
Fu Baozhu thought discontentedly.
She suspected that Murong Jiu was doing it on purpose, intentionally drawing everyone’s attention to herself.
Zhen Zhu said aloud, “Yes, our Princess Consort always likes to keep everything to herself. Now that she has come to the Prince Mansion, she can’t continue like this.”
Murong Jiu’s dry heaving became unbearable, her stomach spasming; she tried to speak, but Jun Yuyan patted her, giving her a comforting look.
Jun Yuyan said, “Eunuch Shi, go quickly and summon the Mansion Physician.”
“This old servant is on his way!”
Seeing this, Zhen Zhu was extremely excited.
Great, everyone will soon know that Murong Jiu, before her marriage, carried an illegitimate child, a promiscuous woman!
The Fifth Princess watched Murong Jiu’s relentless dry heaving and suddenly thought of something, her eyes gleaming as a cold smile appeared on her lips.
Murong Jiu has morning sickness, tsk, soon the whole world will know that her Eldest Imperial Brother wears a giant green hat!
The Mansion Physician arrived swiftly.
By now, Murong Jiu had nothing left to vomit, and the physician hurried forward to take her pulse.
Everyone watched the Mansion Physician closely.
The physician took her pulse with concentration and suddenly a look of joy crossed his face, “Congratulations to the Prince, congratulations; the Princess Consort is indeed pregnant!”
Fu Baozhu’s eyes bulged, as if struck by a bolt of lightning.
What? Murong Jiu is pregnant?
How is this possible!
With things having progressed to this point, anything the Fifth Princess said would be futile; she felt somewhat unreconciled.
Zhen Zhu felt the same way.
She could not understand why things had developed in this direction.
In her imagination, the Prince should have been furious, and then he would have driven Murong Jiu out of the Prince Mansion,
It must be that the Mansion Physician had been bribed by Murong Jiu in advance! Zhen Zhu shared the same thought as the Fifth Princess.
The pulse of Murong Jiu could not possibly indicate a recent pregnancy.
By her calculations, it was almost three full months!
Zhen Zhu thought to herself that she must find a way to expose this matter so that the Prince would become even angrier and show no mercy to Murong Jiu.
What she did not know was that the Prince had known about Murong Jiu’s pregnancy since the day she entered the mansion.
Chun Tao was also shocked.
She was terrified, and her hands and feet were trembling, never having expected the crisis to be resolved so easily.
“I will take Ah Jiu back to rest first, General, please make yourselves comfortable; I will return shortly,” the Prince said.
Jun Yuyan was concerned about Murong Jiu’s health and wanted her to lie down first.
General Fu smiled and waved his hand, “Go ahead, I’ve been to the Prince Mansion so many times, don’t worry, we’ll be fine.”
Fu Baozhu innocently said, “I’ll go and keep the Princess Consort Sister company.”
She had just taken a few steps when Fu Heng pulled her back.
“The Princess Consort is unwell, Baobao, you should not disturb her rest,” he said.
“But I can keep her company and chat, father, don’t you think?” she asked.
General Fu, however, shook his head, “When a woman is nauseous during pregnancy, she does not want to talk to others. Did you not see that the Princess Consort’s face is still very pale? Being thoughtless, do not come here again in the future, be careful not to bump into the Princess Consort.”
His tone was not harsh, nor was he reprimanding Fu Baozhu, but to her, it sounded completely like a reprimand toward her and a defense of Murong Jiu.
This made Fu Baozhu extremely uncomfortable, feeling very aggrieved, and a strong sense of crisis arose in her heart.
It seemed to her that her father and brothers were paying too much attention to Murong Jiu!
Murong Jiu was being personally escorted by Jun Yuyan toward Qiyun Courtyard, but once they were out of sight, Jun Yuyan suddenly swept her up in his arms.
She cried out in alarm, her beautiful eyes wide with shock.
