Chapter 155 Choose Liu Bin and send plum soup
"Your Majesty, I think the imperial physician Liu Bin who just checked my pulse is very good. He was very attentive when he checked my pulse before. In addition, he is from the same hometown as me. Why not let him take care of me for this baby?"
Shen Meizhuang asked tentatively.
"It's okay, as long as you like it."
The emperor did not have much opinion on who to choose as the imperial physician, as long as the other party was happy.
"Since you like him to take care of you, that's fine. The most important thing right now is your own health. You're not even three months pregnant yet, so you need to take good care of yourself and the baby in your belly."
When the Queen heard that Shen Meizhuang chose Liu Bin, her eyes flashed.
If she remembered correctly, this Imperial Doctor Liu who had just joined the Imperial Medical Service did not seem to be that simple.
It seems that Shen Meizhuang may not need to do anything with this pregnancy, as someone else will be unable to control themselves.
"It is all my fault for neglecting it. The Emperor and Empress have been here for such a long time, but they haven't even brought me any tea. It's all my fault for being so happy that I lost my mind. I hope the Emperor and Empress won't take it personally."
Concubine Cao spoke a little embarrassedly.
"It's just right. I'm a little thirsty right now. Lady Shen, what would you like to eat?"
The emperor smiled and took Shen Meizhuang's hand, then asked in a gentle tone.
When Zhen Huan heard the Emperor speaking to her sister Mei in the same tone he usually used to speak to her, she couldn't help feeling sad and lost.
Does the Emperor value offspring so much?
If I also had the emperor's child, perhaps the emperor would treat me better.
Zhen Huan lowered her eyelashes to hide her lost feeling.
"Your Majesty, I was just drinking the plum soup specially made by Concubine Cao. I don't know why, but now I feel like drinking it."
Shen Meizhuang felt the warmth of the emperor's palm being transmitted from her hand to her heart. The blush on her face took a long time to fade away. She looked at the emperor with bright eyes and said.
"It's not difficult if you want to drink plum soup. Hurry up and serve a bowl to Lady Shen."
The emperor opened his mouth and gave instructions to Concubine Cao.
"I will arrange for someone to bring it over right away. There is plenty of plum soup..."
When Concubine Cao saw Shen Meizhuang mentioned plum soup again, the joy on her face was about to overflow, and she quickly agreed.
"If you like this plum soup, I will have someone send the recipe to you, or I will have someone prepare it and send it to you every day."
Concubine Cao spoke eagerly.
"Hahaha, Concubine Cao, you are very good."
The emperor smiled and looked at Concubine Cao and said.
Concubine Cao couldn't help but feel delighted when she saw the emperor's admiring look. If she could please the emperor with this matter, she might be able to be promoted smoothly.
After all, she gave birth to Princess Wen Yi, so according to the rules she should be promoted. If the emperor is happy, the position of concubine can be promoted with just a word.
"Someone come quickly and bring the plum soup to Concubine Shen."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Cao became even more delighted and gave instructions to the maid.
"Your Majesty and Empress have hurried all the way here, so I'm afraid they must be a little thirsty. Why don't you use some too?"
Concubine Cao asked tentatively.
"It's fine for others, but since Mei'er likes your plum soup so much, I think Xiangpin, who is also pregnant, will definitely like it. Why don't you copy a copy of the recipe and send it over so that Xi'er can also taste the plum soup."
When the emperor looked at Shen Meizhuang, he thought of Fu Cha Zhixi who was not present. He couldn't help but resent why Concubine Cao didn't bring out the plum soup earlier.
The weather is hot now, and Xier is pregnant, which makes her heart and chest feel hotter and her appetite is very poor. It would be a good thing if she could get more tonic by drinking the plum soup.
"It's hot this summer, Xiangpin is not feeling well. Maybe drinking your plum soup will make her feel better."
The emperor spoke with some concern.
Zhen Huan didn't expect that the emperor would think of Xiangpin who was not here at this time, and even thought of letting Xiangpin taste the bowl of plum soup.
If I were not here, would the emperor still miss me like this?
Zhen Huan was somewhat unsure of the answer to this question. Perhaps the Emperor was so concerned about Concubine Xiang because she was pregnant.
Isn't it because Sister Mei is pregnant that the Emperor is obviously closer to her?
It seems that I should get pregnant with the emperor's child as soon as possible.
When An Lingrong heard the emperor say this, she couldn't help but smile and speak.
"It's hot this time, and Sister really can't eat much. I'm very worried about this. But now that the emperor has given her this bowl of soup, Sister will surely have a good appetite and eat more."
"Your sister Xiang has been unable to eat these days. If I hadn't been watching her personally, she would definitely not eat obediently because of her temper."
The emperor thought that Xier always liked to make trouble with him for a bite of food or a bowl of soup. This made him feel like he was raising a princess, and he felt helpless and distressed.
"You should persuade Xiangpin more often and tell her not to be willful."
"Your Majesty, you think too highly of me. I don't have the ability to control my sister like you do."
An Lingrong shook her head helplessly.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xiang is not feeling well. Do you want to ask the imperial physician to come and take a look?"
The Queen listened to the Emperor and An Lingrong chatting enthusiastically about Concubine Xiang, even leaving Concubine Shen aside, and her dislike for Concubine Xiang became stronger.
"That's not necessary. Concubine Xiang has a special imperial physician to take care of her. The Queen doesn't need to worry."
The emperor began to explain.
Shen Meizhuang didn't expect that even though she was the one diagnosed as pregnant, the emperor focused his attention on Concubine Xiang. This sudden cold treatment made her feel indescribably lost.
But she quickly calmed down. After all, Xiangpin was about to give birth, so it was only natural for the emperor to care more about Xiangpin.
"Lady Wan doesn't like sour food. Ask the servants to put more sugar in her bowl."
The emperor's eyes inadvertently swept over Zhen Huan who was standing opposite him. Looking at her face that was similar to Chun Yuan, he couldn't help but think that Chun Yuan didn't like sour food, and Zhen Huan also happened to dislike sour food, so he couldn't help but mention it.
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhen Huan's eyes, which had originally seemed a little lost, suddenly lit up.
She knew that the emperor must have her in his heart. Even if she was not pregnant, the emperor still valued her.
This was the first time the Queen knew that Zhen Huan didn't like sour things. Her sister also didn't like sour things. What a coincidence.
Looking at Zhen Huan's shy face, the Queen couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth into an ambiguous smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
Zhen Huan knelt down and bowed shyly.
