The Cold King Demands Love and Pleasure

Min Youan had no patience to listen to his rambling nonsense and directly sent someone to take Doctor Yu into the plague village. Also sent into the village was a cart full of medicinal herbs.

Upon entering the village, Dr. Yu did not smell the stench he had imagined; instead, the smell of strong liquor was quite intense.

He found Xia Tongsheng and saw him talking to Gou Dan about the plague village. He was about to kneel down in front of Xia Tongsheng, "This humble subject pays respects to Your Highness!"

Xia Tongsheng was so startled that she jumped up and quickly helped him up. "Dr. Yu, get up quickly!"

She chuckled and said, "I'm clearly a man, why are you calling me a princess?"

Doctor Yu, looking wise, stroked his beard and said, "Your Highness, there's no need to hide it anymore. When I took your pulse last time, I could tell it was a woman's pulse. Besides, His Highness has already posted a notice saying that Your Highness is here, so it must be you!"

Gou Dan was terrified. He hadn't expected the man beside him to be the princess. He was so frightened that he dropped the protective suit he was holding. "Your Highness, Your Highness, this humble subject didn't mean to!"

Seeing his stunned expression, Xia Tongsheng couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, why are you so nervous? Do you think I'm going to eat you?"

Once he confirmed her identity, Gou Dan quickly racked his brains, trying to figure out if he had done anything wrong. Thankfully, he hadn't!

Xia Tongsheng didn't know what Min Youan was thinking, why he suddenly revealed his identity to the public. Now that she had secretly come to Baiyue, wouldn't the news soon reach the capital?

Good heavens, just thinking about the "torture" she would have to endure from her father when she got back gave her goosebumps.

She shuddered, and seeing Dr. Yu looking at her with a bewildered expression, she immediately adopted a solemn demeanor, "Now that you're here, doctor, please take a look and see if these people can be saved!"

Doctor Yu cupped his hands in greeting, "Yes!"

Gou Dan helped him put on his protective suit and mask, and led him into the ward.

Dr. Yu examined the conditions of several patients, from mild to severe, and then took off his mask.

Xia Tongsheng also took off her mask. "Doctor, how is she?"

Dr. Yu shook his head. "It's hard to say now. Let me study it for a few days first! I'll go get the medicine from the car."

"Doctor, you've worked so hard, you should rest for a while. Gou Dan, go help Doctor Yu prepare the herbs."

Upon hearing this, Gou Dan realized that the princess had spoken, so he quickly led people to arrange for the removal of the medicine.

Doctor Yu looked at Xia Tongsheng and said, "This humble servant will take Your Highness's pulse!"

Xia Tongsheng thought about it and realized that he had been there for several days. He wanted to have his pulse checked to see if he was infected with the plague, so he agreed.

Dr. Yu withdrew his hand and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness, the child is alright!"

Xia Tongsheng was completely confused. What child? How did he know she had a child with her?

"Your Highness, you said you're newly pregnant, how could you come here!"

"Ah! I'm pregnant?" Xia Tongsheng exclaimed in surprise. Good heavens, she's not hermaphroditic, how could she be pregnant out of nowhere!

"That's right! Last time in the prefectural capital, I detected that the princess's pulse was that of a pregnant woman, but unfortunately you were disguised as a man at the time, so I didn't dare to say anything. Now it's been confirmed!"

Xia Tongsheng was dumbfounded. "Doctor, are you sure I'm pregnant?"

Dr. Yu nodded, "In my 50 years of medical practice, I have never made a wrong diagnosis!"

She questioned again, "But my period just ended a few days ago!"

This time it was Doctor Yu's turn to be dumbfounded: "The Princess is definitely not pregnant!"

Xia Tongsheng nodded firmly, "I'm sure!"

"That's impossible! The princess is definitely pregnant!"

"If you don't believe me, call again!" Xia Tongsheng said, reaching out her hand.

After taking her pulse, he was certain it was still a pregnancy pulse, and he couldn't help but wonder what was wrong with it!

So one was stuck in the dead end of being pregnant, while the other was determined not to get pregnant.

She kept the news that Xia Tongsheng was a princess a secret, and forbade Doctor Yu and Gou Dan from revealing her identity. She just wanted to keep a low profile and didn't want to be so high-profile!

Xiao Shili has become more lively these past few days, following Xia Tongsheng around all day, but Xia Tongsheng won't let her go out, afraid that she will catch the disease.

Xia Tongsheng stayed inside for almost half a month, and through observation, listening, questioning and palpation, he finally found a way to cure the plague. During this time, Xia Tongsheng also received a shocking piece of news.

That is, the plague in the plague village did not begin to spread after Min Youan arrived, but before he arrived. It's truly terrifying to think about!

Gou Dan and the others took the prescription written by Doctor Yu and worked tirelessly to brew the medicine. As they watched one patient after another recover, it also meant that Xia Tongsheng could go back.

On the day Xia Tongsheng left, she carried Xiao Shili and was followed by Wen Jin as she walked out of the plague village. She saw Min Youan waiting outside the door with Yingling.

Seeing her come out, he immediately went up to her and asked, "Are you alright?"

Xia Tongsheng shook her head, "It's okay, see, I told you, good people are rewarded!"

"Miss!" Yingling cried out and pounced on Xia Tongsheng, almost knocking her over.

When Wen Jin heard Yingling call Xia Tongsheng "Miss," she realized that the so-called "Young Master Wang" was a woman. The thought that she had actually fallen for a woman made her face turn red. She immediately lowered her head so that others would not see her embarrassment.

"Yingling, you've been eating well these past few days! You almost knocked me over!"

“Miss, I haven’t been able to eat or drink properly these past few days, and I’ve lost several pounds. Look how thin my arms are!” As he spoke, he actually rolled up his sleeves to show Xia Tongsheng.

"You really have lost weight!" For a foodie, losing weight is extremely difficult.

Xia Tongsheng wanted to let Min Shili down, but she stubbornly clung to Xia Tongsheng's neck and refused to get down!

"Shi Li, Shi Li, you can't be so impolite by calling yourself Shi Li! You are a princess, you must be elegant and graceful!"

Min Youan said coldly, "You're still a princess, yet I haven't seen any signs of your graceful demeanor!"

Xia Tongsheng glanced at him and said, "Can't you see I'm disciplining the child? Don't interrupt!"

Min Youan looked at her amusedly, and fearing that she would get tired, he took Shi Li from her arms, "Come here, let your royal brother hold you!"

Shi Li dodged backward, "No, brother is so fierce, I want brother to hold me!"

Min Youan, with a stern face, corrected her, "That's not your brother, that's my queen, your sister-in-law!"

"Your Highness!" Wen Jin cried out in her heart, feeling even more ashamed!

Shi Li cried out in fright, "No!"

Xia Tongsheng immediately comforted him, "Why are you arguing with a three-year-old? Brother is brother, it's just a form of address!"

Min Youan stopped talking and walked ahead in a huff.

This time, the princess became a celebrity in Baiyue, and Dr. Yu also became a renowned doctor in Baiyue!

Of course, even renowned doctors have their worries, namely, whether the princess is pregnant or not!

He consulted several doctors, who all examined Xia Tongsheng's pulse and found that she was pregnant.

Xia Tongsheng couldn't help but wonder if she had contracted some incurable disease or been poisoned by someone. Isn't that what TV dramas and novels always say?

Finally, Dr. Yu figured out the reason.
