41: Chapter 41: There is Joy
After Tang Wankai had left, several patients arrived at the dical center and Chu Baihan sat down to treat them.
“Doctor, you truly are a divine doctor, thank you, thank you.”
After receiving acupuncture from Chu Baihan, an old lady’s stagnant qi finally improved a lot.
With tears in her eyes, she expressed her gratitude to Chu Baihan.
“By the way, doctor, where is your ho?
I don’t have much, just so fruit trees.
Perhaps I could bring so to you another day?” the old lady continued to speak politely to Chu Baihan.
“There’s no need, Grandma, you keep them for yourself,” Chu Baihan patiently persuaded.
Ruolan was trying hard not to laugh at the side.
If this old lady knew the identity of the Princess Consort, she probably would be too scared to seek treatnt next ti.
Today, Qianling Pavilion gained widespread fa; many veteran doctors ca to ask the Princess Consort for advice, and the townspeople praised her as a divine doctor.
Finally, after sending away the last patient, Chu Baihan felt her arms were so sore that she could barely lift them.
“Sister, the carriage from the Prince Residence is here,” a child ran in to inform Chu Baihan.
She was the little beggar from the other day.
Now clean and tidy, she looked completely transford.
“Alright.
Feng Le, thank you for continuing to look after the dical center with Doctor Wu,” Chu Baihan said as she walked out, casually pinching her cheek.
Feng Le was the na Chu Baihan had given her.
“No, no trouble at all, Sister,” Feng Le’s cheeks flushed red as she spoke softly.
Walking outside, Chu Baihan thought it would be Ziyi coming to pick her up again.
But to her surprise, this ti it was the coachman outside, and when she lifted the curtain, she saw a Prince sitting inside.
Her heart fluttered slightly as she glimpsed his handso profile.
“Prince, why have you co?” she asked softly.
“Ziyi is unwell, so I ca personally,” Yan Lin explained in a deep voice.
So that was it.
“What’s wrong with Ziyi?
Maybe I should check on him when I return,” Chu Baihan said, concerned.
Yan Lin’s expression remained calm.
“No need, he’s tough, he’ll recover by tomorrow.”
anwhile, Ziyi, who was out investigating matters concerning the Tang Sect, sneezed violently.
Who was thinking about him?
Otherwise, why would he be sneezing all night?
anwhile, Chu Baihan sat beside Yan Lin, skillfully holding his wrist.
“How do you feel today?”
Upon hearing this, Yan Lin’s eyes flickered as he slowly said, “The sa as usual.”
Fine, Chu Baihan felt dejected.
“By the way, Prince, didn’t you have a Jade Pendant before?
Why don’t I see you wearing it nowadays?” Chu Baihan glanced at Yan Lin out of the corner of her eye, probing.
She was looking for an opportunity to let Yan Lin know that she had known him from years back.
Upon hearing her words, Yan Lin’s expression darkened intensely.
Why would she suddenly ask about the Jade Pendant?
Did Yan Lian tell her sothing?
Worry began to take root in his heart, and Yan Lin said coldly, “I found it useless, so I threw it away.”
Thrown, thrown away?
Originally elated, Chu Baihan’s heart sank upon hearing his words, and her smile faded considerably.
“Was the Jade Pendant yours or given by soone else?
Just throwing it away like that, isn’t that inappropriate?”
She clutched Yan Lin’s sleeve tightly, her breathing becoming rapid, still holding a sliver of hope in her heart.
But the next mont, all her hopes were dashed as Yan Lin actually said, “It was given by soone else, but now they have beco unimportant.”
He had her now, so there was no need to dwell on others, even if that person was the young girl from back then.
“I see,”
Chu Baihan struggled to utter these words, gradually becoming quieter.
Noticing her change in emotion, Yan Lin frowned.
What was wrong with her?
He didn’t say anything wrong.
The two rode in silence, and after disembarking from the carriage, Chu Baihan walked away on her own.
Watching her blurred figure, Yan Lin initially wanted to catch up with her.
Then Ziyi returned.
“Master, I have found sothing concerning the Tang Sect,” Ziyi’s expression was indescribably grave.
Yan Lin’s eyes darkened, and at last, he said, “Go to the study.”
“Yes, master.”
…
“What did you say?
The people from the Tang Sect have had contact with the Princess Consort?”
In the study, Yan Lin narrowed his eyes, his expression growing increasingly obscure.
“Yes, all the dicinal materials in Qianling Pavilion were provided by the people from the Tang Sect, and today soone saw the Princess Consort getting very close to the Tang Sect’s butler,” Ziyi spoke in a muffled voice.
Yan Lin’s aura turned icy cold, he said nothing, and no one could guess what he was thinking.
“This ans, the Princess Consort seems to have known people from the Tang Sect a long ti ago,” Ziwu muttered somberly.
After these words were spoken, the chill around their master intensified.
“Prince, this matter…”
“You all may leave,” Yan Lin curtly cut Ziyi off.
Ziyi and Ziwu exchanged glances, and eventually left first.
The Prince and the Princess Consort had just improved their relationship; they mustn’t let this kind of issue affect them.
The issue with the Tang Sect…
might still be a misunderstanding.
It’s better to wait for the Prince to clarify things with the Princess Consort.
At this ti, Chu Baihan walked to the back garden, suddenly feeling nauseous, she covered her mouth and rushed to the side to vomit.
“Prince, Princess Consort, what is the matter with you?
Are you unwell, shall I go find the Prince?” Ruolan was terribly anxious as she was about to run for help.
But Chu Baihan promptly held her back.
“No need, go find Doctor Wei,” she said softly.
Thinking about what Yan Lin had said to her in the carriage just now, her mood was very complicated, and she did not know how to face him.
As for her health, although a doctor does not heal themselves and diagnosing oneself is not very accurate, she felt her body probably didn’t have any serious problems; having Wei Jia take a look would suffice.
Soon, Wei Jia arrived hurriedly with his dical kit.
“Princess Consort, I will take your pulse right away.”
Because Ruolan had made it sound so urgent, he was very anxious and wanted to take Chu Baihan’s pulse imdiately.
But when he touched Chu Baihan’s pulse, he furrowed his brows, then after a while, his expression turned to joy and surprise.
“Congratulations, Princess Consort, it’s a pulse of joy,” he said excitedly.
A pulse of joy?
Could it be…
that night.
Chu Baihan placed her hand on her abdon, feeling the tiny life there, warmth surged in her heart.
“I must hurry and inform the Prince about this,” Wei Jia rubbed his hands together, ready to deliver the good news.
“You must not!” suddenly, Chu Baihan sternly stopped him.
Wei Jia turned around, his expression perplexed as he looked at her.
Ruolan’s expression also turned to confusion.
This was a piece of great news, so why would the Princess Consort not inform the Prince?
Chu Baihan bowed her head, her emotions mixed.
The matter of the Jade Pendant, and previously before the royal grandmother, Yan Lin had reiterated multiple tis that he did not want children.
She wasn’t sure if he would accept this child…
Bowing her head and looking at her still flat abdon, she murmured softly, “This matter, I must find a suitable ti to tell the Prince myself.
Until then, you two must not reveal this secret to anyone.”
Ruolan and Wei Jia looked at each other, not fully understanding her intent, but they seriously replied, “Yes, Princess Consort.”
