Wei Zhan sent his wife back to the house and immediately sent someone to call the court doctor.
The court physician came from the Imperial Medical Bureau and was one of the welfare benefits given to the princess by the emperor.
He was about fifty years old, and in his entire life he had never been promoted to imperial physician, and only had the title of doctor.
But even so, his medical skills are much better than most doctors in the county.
Yingbao stretched out her hand to feel the pulse of Doctor Sun, and suddenly she thought of Doctor Li from her hometown.
Doctor Li and his second grandson were abducted by the Jin people many years ago, and no one knows what happened to them.
At that time, he had just become an imperial physician and had not even warmed his seat when he met the invading Jin army. As a result, he was abducted along with skilled craftsmen, gold, silver and beautiful women as their treasure. There has been no news of him since then.
Fortunately, his eldest grandson was able to do his job well and kept the pharmacy going.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Doctor Sun say, "Congratulations, Princess. This is a pregnancy pulse."
Wei Zhan, who was standing nearby, was overjoyed and asked quickly, "How many months has it been?"
Doctor Sun stroked his beard and said, "Judging from the princess's pulse, it's been about two months."
When Wei Zhan heard this, he felt guilty and annoyed.
He and his wife had always had sex. If he had known she was pregnant, he would never have done anything rash.
Doctor Sun looked at him and said, "The princess' pregnancy is stable, but she needs to rest and not overwork herself."
Wei Zhan nodded repeatedly, pulled Doctor Sun out of the inner room, and asked him about the precautions in detail.
After seeing off Doctor Sun, Wei Zhan rubbed his hands with joy. He told the maid to take good care of his wife, and ran to his mother to report the good news to her, Madam Wang.
Mrs. Wang was immediately overjoyed and put her hands together and prayed: "God bless me, I will finally have a grandson."
She had waited for three years, becoming extremely anxious, and now Yingbao was finally pregnant.
"Qilang, how is Yingbao's pregnancy going? Is she having morning sickness?" Mrs. Wang asked hurriedly.
Wei Zhan shook his head: "She said she didn't feel anything, but she was often sleepy recently."
"Then you should walk with her more during the day and let her rest early at night. She will feel sleepy if she doesn't get enough sleep." Madam Wang looked at her son and whispered, "You can't sleep with Yingbao in the next few months. Do you understand?"
Wei Zhan's face instantly turned purple. With a squeak, he quickly slipped out of the room and returned to his own yard.
Three months passed in a flash, and it was June, the height of summer.
Wu Hui's body has recovered.
That day, Master Lu came to say goodbye to Ying Bao: "Princess, we will be leaving tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so I came to take my leave from you."
Yingbao: "Are you planning to bring Wuyang back to the palace?"
"Yes! His Majesty has cleaned up the inner palace, and the situation will never happen again." Young Master Lu said, "Don't worry, Princess, Wuyang will be safe."
In the past, the emperor was concerned about this and that, but now all those who should be killed have been killed, and the palace has almost been completely replaced. Many palace servants and eunuchs have been cleared out, and now it is time to welcome the prince back to the capital.
"What about Wuhui? Are you planning to take him back too?" Yingbao glanced at the little kid playing with the cart in the yard.
Young Master Lu clasped his fists and said, "I'll leave Wuhui here with you for now. I'll ask his biological parents to pick him up when the time comes."
Yingbao nodded: "Okay, please let me know when you come."
"That's natural."
In the evening, Wuyang followed Jiang Bao and Wei Fanzhi back from the teacher's place and showed Yingbao the calligraphy in his hand: "Auntie, look at my handwriting, the teacher praised it."
Yingbao took the copybook and looked at it, then nodded: "Not bad, the handwriting is neat, almost catching up with my two brothers."
Wuyang smiled when he heard that, threw himself into Yingbao's arms, and patted her waist gently: "When my sister comes out, can I be her teacher and teach her to read?"
Yingbao smiled: "How do you know it's my sister?"
Wuyang snorted: "I just know it!"
Wuhui stood aside, looking at Wuyang with serious eyes. Seeing that he was still leaning on his aunt's arms, he couldn't help but squeeze over, hugged Yingbao's thighs tightly, and leaned his face on her legs.
Yingbao stroked his furry head and said to Wuyang, "Your uncle will take you back to the capital tomorrow. I'll ask Mudan to bring all your toys with him. If you want anything else, tell me and I'll have someone buy it for you."
Wuyang was stunned. "Who is my uncle?"
"It's Mr. Lu who often takes you archery. How could you forget him?" In the past three months, Young Master Lu has always regarded himself as Wuyang's uncle, and often took several children to play archery games together. Wuyang seemed to like him very much, so Yingbao told Wuyang the truth directly.
Wuyang pouted and wanted to cry: "I don't want to go with him!"
"Haven't you always wanted to meet your father? You can see your father if you go back to the capital with your uncle." Yingbao coaxed.
Wu Yang once asked why other children had fathers but he didn't, and he secretly called Wei Zhan "Daddy", but was stopped by Ying Bao.
"I don't want daddy! Wuuuwaaaa..." Wuyang cried non-stop, his tears and snot all over Yingbao's legs. "I don't want to go with Uncle Lu!"
Yingbao hugged Wuyang and patted him, "Your mother and father miss you very much. They are waiting for you to return to the capital."
"No! No! No!" Wuyang shook his head repeatedly and hugged Yingbao's arm tightly: "I only want to be with my aunt."
Ying Bao felt sad, but Wuyang was the emperor's eldest son, and she couldn't keep him without permission. "Be good, Wuyang. I will go to the capital to see you later."
But no matter how they coaxed him, Wuyang just kept crying, causing Yingbao to cry too.
Seeing this, An Rou and Mu Dan were afraid that Wu Yang would squeeze his master's belly, so they hurried over and picked him up.
Wu Hui looked at Ying Bao quietly and asked, "Aunt, do I not have to go with uncle?"
Yingbao wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and nodded: "You don't have to go back for now, stay here first and wait for your parents to pick you up."
Wuhui smiled, glanced at Wuyang who was crying non-stop, and leaned his head on his aunt.
It’s great that he doesn’t have to go back. He gets to be with his aunt forever.
That place was too gloomy and scary. There was no good food, and even the amount of water was fixed. If you accidentally spilled it, you could only endure the hunger and thirst until the eunuchs went outside to fetch it.
On the third day, Wuyang was still carried into the carriage by Master Lu.
Wuyang didn't cry loudly like he did at the beginning, but just shed tears silently.
Yingbao stood beside the carriage, wiped his face, stuffed a package into his arms, and said softly: "There are thirty bottles of potion in this package. Keep it for yourself and don't give it to others. If you have a stomachache or feel uncomfortable somewhere, drink a bottle, understand?"
Wuyang nodded, raised his eyes and looked at Yingbao, with a wronged look on his face: "Why do you want me to go back? Wuhui is the one brought by Uncle Lu, why doesn't he go back?"
Yingbao: ...
She didn't know how to explain it.
Wuhui stood beside Yingbao, his fingers tightly grasping the corner of Yingbao's skirt, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
"Let's go, goodbye!" Young Master Lu clasped his fists towards Ying Bao and said, "Princess, we'll see you later."
Yingbao returned the greeting: "Take care on your journey, Mr. Lu. The weather is hot now. Give Wuyang some water to drink on the way to prevent heat stroke."
"Got it. Take care of yourself too."
Young Master Lu sat down next to Wuyang and told the coachman to drive away.
