Liang Wenxin nodded after hearing this, then stepped forward, took out a delicate and small stethoscope from his arms, gently placed it on Yun Shang's chest and listened carefully.

After a moment, he put away the stethoscope, reached out his hand to take Yun Shang's pulse again, and carefully felt the changes in the pulse.

Although Doctor Liang's pulse-taking skills are a little unfamiliar compared to those of experienced old doctors, he can still accurately diagnose most common diseases.

After joint consultation and in-depth discussion between the two doctors, they finally reached a consistent conclusion.

The imperial physician bowed respectfully to Zhao Qiyan, then said in a clear voice, "Your Highness, after the diagnosis by this humble official and Doctor Liang, the princess's condition was not caused by poisoning."

After a pause, a hint of joy appeared on the imperial physician's face as he continued, "The princess's pulse is strong and powerful, which is a sign of pregnancy! However, since the pregnancy is short, only a month, the pulse is not particularly obvious."

At this time, Doctor Liang immediately asked, "May I ask, Your Highness, has the princess consumed any cold foods today? Or has she accidentally fallen, or bumped her abdomen?"

Zhao Qiyan's originally gentle expression instantly turned stern. He stared at the person in front of him and said in a deep voice, "She ate the melon and was even pushed to the ground!"

Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.

At this time, the experienced imperial physician slowly spoke, "The explanation is not difficult. The pregnancy is still young, and pregnant women should not consume too many cold foods. Add to that the external impact, and you're experiencing signs of miscarriage."

As he spoke, he stroked his gray beard.

Zhao Qiyan frowned upon hearing this and asked worriedly, "So what's the situation now? Is there anything serious?"

The imperial physician quickly consoled her, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The princess has always been in good health. Although there are signs of miscarriage this time, fortunately, it's not serious. She only needs to take a few doses of medication to preserve the pregnancy, take good care of herself, and avoid strenuous exercise. She should be fine."

Liang Wenxin, who had been standing silently nearby, now softly echoed, "Yes, Your Highness. As long as we follow the doctor's instructions and take good care of her, I believe the princess will be safe."

As Liang Wenxin finished speaking, the imperial physician added, "Although you've luckily escaped this time, you must remain extra cautious in the future. After all, the princess is still young, and the first three months of pregnancy are the most critical and dangerous period. Especially after experiencing a miscarriage like this, every pregnancy thereafter may be at risk, so you must not take it lightly until you have a successful birth."

After hearing what the imperial physician said, Zhao Qiyan nodded solemnly, turned around and told Qi Chuan beside him, "Send the imperial physician out quickly."

Qi Chuan responded and quickly led the doctor out the door. Qing Huan, who was standing by, didn't dare to delay for a moment and hurriedly followed the doctor to get the medicine and boil it.

At this moment, Yun Shang, lying on the hospital bed, still looked very weak. She seemed to have not recovered from what had just happened. Her eyes were empty and lifeless, and her whole body was dazed, as if she had lost her soul.

Zhao Qiyan was still in a daze at this time. He sat quietly beside Yun Shang, staring at her, as if time had frozen at this moment.

After a long while, he finally opened his mouth as if waking from a dream and whispered, "The imperial physician said...your stomach aches because you're pregnant."

After he finished speaking, his gaze slowly moved downwards, finally stopping on Yun Shang's still flat belly.

He carefully stretched out his right hand and gently stroked that place, as if he could feel a little life growing in it.

He murmured to himself, "Is there really a child here that belongs to both of us?"

At this moment, Zhao Qiyan's expression seemed unusually calm, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or sad in his heart.

However, if you look closely, you can find that there is a subtle tenderness in his deep eyes.

On the other side, Yun Shang was stunned at first after hearing what Zhao Qiyan said. Then she reacted and her brows gradually frowned.

All along, she would drink contraceptive soup on time after every lovemaking with Zhao Qiyan just in case, but she didn't expect that she would get pregnant again this time.

She couldn't help but wonder what went wrong.

At the same time, Zhao Qiyan was also thinking about this problem.

He quickly recalled the fetal month according to what the imperial physician had said.

Suddenly, he thought of the time in Beishan Village. Due to the simple environment and limited conditions, the two of them were not able to wash their bodies carefully as usual after they were done, and naturally forgot to give Yunchang the contraceptive soup.

I think it was that single negligence that led to the current result.

Thinking of this, the corners of Zhao Qiyan's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Maybe, all this is fate destined by God!

Although it was a little unexpected, since it has happened, just accept it calmly.

As for Yun Shang, she still felt that everything before her eyes was like an illusory dream, so unreal.

She subconsciously raised her left hand and gently touched her abdomen, imitating what Zhao Qiyan had just done.

However, she could not accurately describe the complex emotions in her heart at this moment.

She stroked her slightly bulging belly in disbelief, feeling mixed emotions.

A new life is actually being nurtured here, and it is the blood of a Yu person.

Does this mean that from now on, she will be trapped in this strange land forever?

As her thoughts spread, she couldn't help but start to worry.

If she gave birth to this child, would she gradually be assimilated into the culture and customs of Yu State, and eventually become an authentic citizen of Yu State?

She thought hard about this question, but quickly shook her head, feeling that this idea was not accurate.

In fact, the gears of fate had already started turning quietly the moment her soul traveled to Yu Country.

Whether she has this child or not, she is destined to stay in this country and spend her long life as Lin Zhiwei.

When she realized this, her tense heartstrings slowly relaxed.

Yes, since we can’t go back to the original world, instead of being sad and self-pitying all day long, we might as well accept the reality calmly and manage the future life with our heart.
