Emperor Yuanwu was so excited that he issued an edict directly, rewarding Concubine Zhen with a lot of things. That night, he also stayed in Concubine Zhen's palace to accompany her.

After dinner.

Emperor Yuanwu and Concubine Zhen were sitting in the courtyard of Qingfeng Garden admiring the moon.

He poked Concubine Zhen's belly for a while, and suddenly remembered what the imperial physician said when Concubine Zhen was just pregnant.

"How are you feeling recently? Has the imperial physician come to check your pulse on time?"

As Emperor Yuanwu spoke, he peeled an orange and placed it in Concubine Zhen's hand.

Concubine Zhen was flattered, her eyes trembling: "In reply to the emperor, I take the pregnancy-preserving medicine every day according to the imperial physician's instructions, and I have never missed a bowl, but..."

When Concubine Zhen said this, she stood up from the stool, walked up to Emperor Yuanwu and bowed.

Emperor Yuanwu looked at her kneeling down and hurriedly reached out to hold her arm: "Didn't I just tell you that you shouldn't perform formalities when you're pregnant? What if you get pregnant? What should I do?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Concubine Zhen was embarrassed and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the imperial physician Li who took care of my pregnancy before seemed to be doing a bad job..."

The emperor was startled: "Then do you have any doctor who you think is suitable?"

"I seldom leave the palace on weekdays. Apart from Doctor Li who takes my pulse every day and Doctor Wang who delivers me medicine, I don't know any other doctors."

"Don't worry, I will definitely ask you to find a proper doctor to take care of you and the child tomorrow. I will definitely not let you and the child get hurt."

After Emperor Yuanwu finished speaking, he took Concubine Zhen's hand in a comforting manner and motioned for her to sit down.

"Your Majesty." Concubine Zhen paused for a moment and said, "I think it is not necessary to be so troublesome. I heard that Qiluan Garden has always been taken care of by Doctor Xie. Since he is someone my sister trusts, I naturally trust him. I wonder if Your Majesty can appoint Doctor Xie to take care of my unborn child."

"Imperial Doctor Xie is indeed a steady man, and his medical skills are also acceptable. He has been taking care of the Fifth Prince these days, which is reassuring." Emperor Yuanwu nodded in approval: "Wu Jixiang, you go and do this."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The smile on Zhenpin's lips deepened.

"It's late, go to bed early. You are pregnant now, so don't stay up late." Emperor Yuanwu stood up and stretched out his hand to Concubine Zhen.

The two of them entered the bedroom one after the other.

It won't take long.

The lights in Concubine Zhen's bedroom went out.

No one noticed.

Zuo Qianrou, sitting in her own palace, could see everything through the gap in the window.

"This Concubine Zhen looks like a sickly woman all day long. Doesn't she bleed when she moves? How come she is so strong now that the emperor is here? She usually has to lie in bed and rest during the day, but now she can enjoy the moon in the middle of the night!"

Zuo Qianrou's personal maid Cai'er couldn't help but spit, walked to the window and closed it tightly.

"It's fine to say these words in front of me, but if you say them outside and Concubine Zhen hears them, I, a concubine without even a rank, will not be able to save your life." Zuo Qianrou closed the book she was reading, her eyes darkening.

Cai Er was so scared that she knelt on the ground: "My lady, I know I was wrong."

Zuo Qianrou said nothing and slowly walked to the dressing table.

She stared at herself in the bronze mirror, with bright eyes, white teeth, and a plump figure.

From the day she could remember, everyone who had seen her would always praise her for being beautiful.

There was once a fortune teller who predicted that she had the fate of a phoenix.
