141 Teratogenesis
Zhao Chongyi is unwell, and it has not been a matter of a day or two. Since about a month ago, she has been feeling dizzy and nauseous from time to time, and occasionally she feels as if the scene in front of her has been covered with a layer of light, making the whole vision indescribably awkward.
Now in the palace, her share of the supply is second only to the queen, coupled with the rewards of the queen mother and the emperor from time to time, as well as the secret filial piety of the palace secretary, in fact, she is more affordable than the queen. But even so, she has always been vigilant, the diet is made by the henchmen of the palace who personally stared at the chef in the imperial dining room, without pretending to be the hands of others, and before entering, someone must first try it - this person was specially found by the Zhao family for her to enter the palace, if there is any abortion and miscarriage in the diet and the herbs that kill the cold palace, you will definitely be able to taste it.
With such careful precautions, his body still began to feel unwell, which couldn't help but make Zhao Chongyi have a headache. However, the doctor who passed on didn't actually diagnose any problems, only saying that she was probably a pregnancy reaction. Although she is eight months pregnant, the pregnancy reaction should have disappeared long ago, but because she is weak and thoughtful, it is normal for her to still feel unwell.
After Zhao Chongyi heard this, she sent the people away, and the medicine prescribed was boiled out and poured out-she didn't dare to trust these imperial doctors, let alone drink the medicine they prescribed-the upstart of the Zhao family, before she had time to put her hand into the hospital, Zhao Chongyi could control the affairs in the Chunhua Palace, but she couldn't control the outside, if someone did something in the medicinal soup, she couldn't prevent it.
However, what the imperial doctor said was too much to think about, Zhao Chongyi knew it in his heart. From the moment she was diagnosed with the happy pulse—not the day the emperor announced the good news, but the day before, when her dowry palace people found out that her little day had been postponed—she felt that all the people in the palace seemed to be trying to harm her. By the time the news spread, she hadn't slept a few nights. The palace people around her all advised her to relax, but how could she do it?
Zhao Chongyi actually didn't think that she would get pregnant so soon. According to the original family's idea, it is best for the queen to give birth to the prince, and she can become pregnant. Who knew that the queen had not moved, but she had good news here. Think about the children who have been mismarried in the front palace, and look at the concubines who have had miscarriages before and after, how can she not be nervous?
At first, she was afraid that the queen would be displeased, but later, the emperor promoted her father, and there were other concubines in the palace to curry favor with her, and unconsciously, Zhao Chongyi's own mentality had changed. Now she is even more afraid of losing this child, because without this child, all the scenery she has now may not exist.
The more I think about it, the more scared I become, the more I think about it, this is a cycle, and Zhao Chongyi can't climb out.
Today's Queen Mother Shengshou had already told her that she didn't have to come, because she was eight months pregnant, and the first child was the most important, so the Queen Mother allowed her not to come, as long as she rested in her palace.
But after Zhao Chongyi thanked the Queen Mother for her grace, she still came today. She said to the outside world that although the Queen Mother was gracious, but on a day like Shengshou, she should at least come over and kowtow to fulfill her filial piety, and she must not be arrogant when she is pregnant. But the real reason is only understood by herself - she doesn't dare to stay in the Chunhua Hall by herself.
The emperor is in front, the queen mother and the queen are at the banquet, she herself is in her own palace, if something happens, no one will have to take this responsibility, and she will probably not even be able to find a doctor at that time. So even though she woke up in the morning and felt a little dizzy in front of her, she still came. But when I sat there, I didn't feel anything, and when I stood up, I felt that my head was so heavy that I couldn't lift it, and the scene in front of me seemed to be shrouded in too bright candles, and the color seemed to have lightened.
"Quickly pass on the Imperial Doctor, pass on the Imperial Doctor!" The Queen Mother was the first to react.
All the people in the temple looked at each other. On a good day, the imperial doctor is still in front of the queen mother, which is too ...... It's so unlucky.
"Queen Mother, let Zhao Chongyi go back to his palace to rest." The queen was a little happy in her heart, but her face was solemn, "After all, you are humble and respectful, your holy life, the emperor wants to pray for you......"
Feng Jiuzhishou is already a little disadvantageous, the emperor wants amnesty just to rush this disadvantage, and now Zhao Chongyi has passed on the imperial doctor here, isn't it even more unlucky? Although she is pregnant, in terms of seniority, she is inferior, and the Queen Mother is respected, and she does not ignore the Queen Mother's reasoning for her.
The new military secretary Mrs. Zhao was also here, she was the first person to hold her daughter regardless of her position, and when she heard the queen's high-sounding speech, she couldn't shoot ten thousand sharp arrows in her eyes, and the queen was killed by the arrows. However, these words are really irrefutable, and she really doesn't dare to say that her daughter is more important than the queen mother.
She came with her daughter-in-law, Grandma Zhao, that is, Zhao Chongyi's sister-in-law. Zhao Chongyi's brother is now taking his concubine to be the magistrate outside, leaving his wife to serve his parents at home. For this, Grandma Zhao was very unhappy, but the sister-in-law's stomach was related to the future of the Zhao family, as long as Grandma Zhao did not plan to return to her parents' house with her, she had to plan for the Zhao family.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao was already trembling with anger, because Grandma Zhao did not have such a deep relationship with her sister-in-law, but she was much calmer, and when she turned her eyes, she saw Taohua, and immediately gently pulled her mother-in-law, and said in a low voice: "Jiang." ”
With just one word, Mrs. Zhao suddenly understood, and immediately coughed dryly and said, "What the queen mother said is true." The last three words were almost squeezed out of between the teeth, "Although Chongyi is pregnant, she must not collide with the Queen Mother, such an auspicious day is indeed not suitable for the Imperial Doctor." ”
The people in the hall all looked at Mrs. Zhao with different expressions. Some were sarcastic, others flashed with pity. Mrs. Zhao turned a blind eye to everyone, and only turned to Taohua: "It's just that the fetus in Chongyi's womb is a dragon vein, and the imperial doctor can't summon it, can you ask Miss Jiang to diagnose the pulse, if you can say that it's okay, it will also make everyone feel at ease." is the Queen Mother, so you don't have to worry anymore. ”
Zhao Chongyi is indeed humble and untouchable, but what she has in her belly is the grandchildren of the Queen Mother, if the Queen Mother does not care, it is unkind.
The Queen Mother looked concerned: "The imperial doctor naturally wants to summon it." This is the emperor's bloodline, how can it be ignored. Quick, hurry up and pass on the Imperial Doctor! ”
Mrs. Zhao really didn't dare to let the Queen Mother pass on the imperial doctor like this, and when the time came, Zhao Chongyi's name would not be very good. And isn't there a miracle doctor on the table? Cheng Enbo, who was restrained by the doctors of the Tai Hospital, was treated by her so that he could get up from the bed, and now there are ancestral halls in Lantian and Luonan counties, and the Queen Mother mentioned this matter when she pointed her out to the king of Anjun, saying that she has great fortune to bless the people around her. In that case, why don't you use it instead of using those imperial doctors who are not sure which school they are? You must know that the relationship between King Anjun and the Queen Mother is not very good, at least his future princess has no reason to harm Zhao Chongyi.
"I don't dare to alarm the imperial doctor on the Queen Mother's birthday, so let's ask Miss Jiang to check her pulse, right?" I don't know how long it will take for the imperial doctor to come, but Jiang Shi is in front of him.
The queen secretly scolded Mrs. Zhao for being insidious in her heart, and she couldn't suppress the sneer on her face: "Mrs. Zhao, the Jiang family is the future princess of the county, not a doctor who comes and goes at any time. ”
Healers, among the ninth-rate, as long as they pay money, they will come when they call you and leave when they tell you to go. But Jiang Taohua has been pointed out as the princess of the county, a future princess, can you move it casually?
The Queen Mother sighed lightly: "Let's go and call the imperial doctor." ”
Mrs. Zhao's face changed slightly, and she stabbed her daughter-in-law through the cover of her clothes. Grandma Zhao had to take two steps forward and bowed down to Taohua: "Please also ask Miss Jiang to help her for the sake of Chongyi Niangniang's pregnancy with a dragon fetus." "The Zhao family please don't move the princess of the future county, for the sake of the emperor's bloodline, please don't move?
Taohua has always listened to these boring intrigues with only one ear, but her eyes have always been observing Zhao Chongyi.
Zhao Chongyi's face was not good, and her lips were slightly dark, as if she had a heart problem. But she kept blinking unconsciously, proving that her eyes were uncomfortable. What is wrong with this, could it be gestational hypertension syndrome, preeclampsia?
"What do you think of Chongyi Niangniang now?" Momoka still asked. Eclampsia is not a trivial disease, Zhao Chongyi is eight months pregnant, and she is the first child, and if she doesn't get it right, something big will happen. It's just that if it's really gestational hypertension, the doctor here should also have some experience, and he should have started to diagnose and treat it a long time ago.
"I just feel that there is ......a flower in front of me," Zhao Chongyi just said, and felt a wave of nausea rushing up, and couldn't help but turn his head and retch, and the sides of his temples suddenly hurt as if something was pinching.
Old Madam Yu Ge coughed lightly: "Chong Yi Niang's body is weaker, why is she still nauseous and nauseous at this time?" How does the imperial doctor serve on weekdays, isn't it that the supplements that the emperor and the queen mother have rewarded have not used? ”
Zhao Chongyi, the tonic rewarded by the queen mother and the queen, really didn't dare to use it, and they were all stored in the library. Only the imperial dining room said that the rose dew added every day on the order of the Queen Mother was her favorite, and every day she was a confidant of the palace who watched the concoction with her own eyes, so she often drank it.
But how can you tell the truth at this time? Zhao Chongyi held his head silently, and the palace people around him hurriedly knelt down and replied: "The tonic is used every day, but Chongyi is heavy these days and can't sleep well at night, so he will be dizzy......
Momoka shook her head. It's not all dizziness caused by lack of sleep.
"Does Chongyi Niangniang have a headache? Can you have edema? ”
I have all of these symptoms. The palace man hurriedly replied: "There are all of them." But isn't that true for pregnant women? The legs and feet are swollen or something, and some pregnant women are so swollen that they can't even wear shoes when they are about to give birth.
"Is the food of Chongyi Niangniang light or heavy these days?"
That's hard to say. The taste of pregnant women changed for a while, and the palace people were difficult to answer, so they had to say vaguely: "Niangniang has a poor appetite, sometimes she eats lightly, and sometimes she may not ......."
After asking and answering these few words, the Queen Mother never said anything to stop her, and Taohua said: "Then let me diagnose Chongyi Niangniang's pulse." "High blood pressure is diagnosed on the pulse, and it is difficult to determine whether it is preeclampsia or not.
Zhao Chongyi was just about to stretch out his hand, when he suddenly felt a warm temperature under him, and he couldn't help but look down. In June, the clothes were thin, and a wet mark immediately spread on the skirt. Mrs. Zhao was the closest, and at a glance she lost her voice and said, "I'm going to give birth!" ”
At this time, there was chaos in the palace. The news has been transmitted to the emperor in front, Zhao Shangshu is also here, hearing that his daughter is going to give birth, he thinks about the days in his heart, and he can't help but change color a little - it's only eight months, as the saying goes, seven lives and eight don't live, this, this, if something happens, it can be ......
Until now, no one cares that this is the Queen Mother's Holy Birthday Day, and the imperial doctor on duty in the palace is also running this way, and there are a few gynecological holy hands who are not in the palace today, and they have eunuchs and horses to pick them up. Shouxian Palace could not let the concubines give birth, the Queen Mother personally ordered to call her own sedan chair, and Zhao Chongyi was carried up, and several strong eunuchs Fei also seemed to send people back to the Chunhua Palace, and immediately the entire Chunhua Palace was busy in and out.
Before Taohua could diagnose Zhao Chongyi's pulse, she was squeezed behind by the palace people who hugged her, and in the end she could only follow the foreign women to say goodbye. Until she got into the carriage outside the palace gate, she was still thinking about Zhao Chongyi's illness.
There were two tuks outside the carriage, and the curtain was half lifted by one hand, Taohua subconsciously turned her head and saw Shen Shu's face outside the window: "But scared?" "No matter how much you know about medicine, after all, it is still a girl's family in the boudoir, and I am afraid that I have never seen a woman give birth with my own eyes—of course, he has never seen it, but I heard that on the day my eldest cousin gave birth, my eldest cousin was so frightened in the yard that his face turned pale and his body was stiff—I was probably always a little frightened when I thought that this kind of thing would be my turn in the future.
Taohua's heart warmed, and she smiled: "It's nothing." Zhao Chongyi was sent to Chunhua Palace, but I didn't see it. "Actually, I've seen everything in the hospital, and there's nothing scary about having a baby. However, in this era, and Zhao Chongyi's birth is a bit of a problem, I'm afraid it's terrible.
Shen Shu looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "I'll go to Chunhuaxuan and wait for you." "There are some things that can't be said on the street.
Taohua said without thinking: "You just get in the car." As soon as she said this, she saw Mint's eyes widen, and realized that it didn't seem to be quite right.
"Girl—" Mint coughed dryly, but didn't know what to say. If you want to say no, the girl is good with the prince, and it's too late for her to be happy. But if you just let the prince get in the car, it doesn't seem to be very appropriate. Hey, it's really hard to be a personal maid.
Seeing her like this, Taohua let go: "If no one pays attention outside, just get in the car." Always go to Chunhua Xuan, I'm afraid-" Yu Ling is still in Chunhua Xuan, although the more dangerous the place, the safer, but also just in case.
Shen Shuyou looked around. It was noon, the sunniest time of the day, and the street was in front of the palace, and the people were not allowed to move around at will, so there was no one on the street except for the carriages of these people who came out of the palace.
The carriage of the Jiang family was moving slowly, and there was basically no one behind him, Shen Shu only glanced at it twice, then turned over directly from the horse and stepped onto the wheel, and without waiting for Sanqi, who was driving the car, to stop the horse, he had already entered the carriage.
"Today—what's going on?" really got into the carriage, and Shen Shu felt uncomfortable again.
The carriage of the Jiang family is naturally not big, the three of them sit in it, and there is a burden with a change of clothes, although Mint consciously moved to the corner, and Shen Shu was only on the side of the door, but the two still sat almost next to each other, and as the carriage swayed, their shoulders gently touched each other from time to time.
Shen Shu felt a little hot, and he didn't know if it was because the carriage was not very airy-there was no ice in the Jiang family's carriage--he felt as if a small flame was quietly burning and slowly spreading.
Momoka lowered her head and didn't look at him. When the person really came up, she also felt embarrassed, her cheeks were uncontrollably hot, and she didn't dare to raise her head a little: "Zhao Chongyi is like that, I'm afraid it's a serious illness." It's just a little strange, doesn't the doctor ask for a pulse on weekdays? If it was really the kind of illness I thought, I shouldn't have let her come to Shouxian Palace today. ”
"The pulse of peace must be invited every five days." Shen Shu thought for a while, "The imperial doctor said that Zhao Chongyi is weak and thoughtful, and the dragon fetus is also weak, so I am afraid that I will be born prematurely." But you look at it today, but what's the problem? ”
Taohua pondered for a moment: "You mean, or do you suspect that someone is doing something to Zhao Chongyi?" But there was nothing suspicious in the hall at that time - it's a pity that I didn't have time to diagnose Zhao Chongyi's pulse at that time. ”
"The emperor has long said that it is impossible for Zhao Chongyi to give birth to this child." Shen Shu said lightly, his eyes were a little cold, "But the emperor hasn't found out what they are doing until now." "It's a bit too sad for an emperor to assert that something will happen to this baby as early as when the concubine was just pregnant.
"If the emperor has been staring at it, but if he still hasn't found it, in fact, someone may not have done it?" Taohua cautiously guessed, "There are many reasons for miscarriage, such as long-term nervousness and fear, which is likely to cause serious consequences." However, if the doctor doesn't diagnose it at all...... then there's probably something wrong with the doctor."
"That imperial doctor is the emperor's person." Shen Shu was a little anxious, "According to what he said, the Zhao family is just thinking too much and is weak. ”
Since it is the emperor's person, then it should be reliable. Taohua thought carefully about Zhao Chongyi's actions in Shouxian Palace today, and finally shook her head: "I really didn't find anything. At the beginning, she didn't pay much attention to Zhao Chongyi, and the Queen Mother kept pulling her to the topic, at least half of her energy had to be focused on it. If it weren't for Zhao Chongyi's big belly sitting in the middle of the concubines who was too eye-catching, Taohua would have looked at her a few times out of her professional habits as a doctor, and maybe she wouldn't have paid attention to her at all.
"If I can diagnose Zhao Chongyi's pulse, maybe I can find something......" Taohua really regretted it at this time, she shouldn't have been too scared of the Queen Mother at that time, she should have hurried over to check the pulse, maybe there is an answer now.
"Well, that's not your business in the first place." Shen Shu saw Taohua showing a look of regret, and hurriedly changed his words, "But if it is convenient in the palace, the emperor may let you go to check Zhao Chongyi's pulse." Although the imperial doctor was trusted by the emperor, it was obvious that his medical skills were not very good, and he didn't even find a problem, "It's just that the disease you are talking about, what do you mean?" Isn't Zhao Chongyi too thoughtful and weak? ”
"It may indeed be related to Duosi's weakness, but—" Taohua pondered her words, "Some pregnant women will rush up with qi and blood, causing dizziness, headache, dizziness and edema, and in severe cases, even convulsions and loss of consciousness, which is called eclampsia. Once this disease appears, it is extremely harmful to both mother and child. ”
Shen Shu frowned: "Can't the doctor diagnose it?" ”
Taohua also frowned: "It is said that if the qi and blood rush is serious, the imperial doctor should be able to diagnose it." However, the initial onset of this disease is uncertain, and if it is not the onset of the disease, it may be difficult to diagnose...... "Gestational hypertension is a high and low blood pressure at the beginning, and the doctor here only comes to ask for a pulse every five days, and there is no blood pressure monitor to self-measure, if you come to diagnose the pulse when the blood pressure is about normal, it is indeed possible to miss it."
Shen Shu really didn't know much about medical skills, and he didn't understand Taohua's words, but he could hear this kind of uncertainty, and sighed and said: "It's like this, you don't have to think about it anymore, if the emperor is interested, he will naturally look for you." I just don't know if this child can land safely. ”
Taohua shook her head: "If it's really eclampsia—it's too difficult." "In this era, there is no caesarean section, and it is dangerous for women to give birth, and if you add eclampsia, it is really unthinkable, and it is very possible for both mother and child to die.
On the Holy Birthday Festival, Zhao Chongyi was born prematurely, and the news couldn't be held back in front of everyone's eyes, and it only took half a day to fly all over the capital as if she had grown wings. I don't know how many people are talking about what this premature birth is for, and most of the suspicions point to the two daughters in the palace - the queen mother and the queen.
However, the next day, a new piece of news came out, and it immediately turned things over - Zhao Chongyi gave birth smoothly, and there was no tragedy of blood collapse, but what was even worse than the blood collapse was that she gave birth to a freak.
For a while, there were rumors, some people said that this freak had a big head and a small body, and would cry when he was born. Fortunately, it died on its own two hours later, otherwise if it grew up, the palace would not know what to do.
Some people also said that the child was actually suffocated to death by the palace people of Chunhua Palace, and originally wanted to claim that Zhao Chongyi was stillborn, but unfortunately the Queen Mother and the people sent by the queen were staring at it in Chunhua Palace, and this news could not be concealed anyway. It's just that it's spreading so much now, and I'm afraid that there is also the promotion of the Yu clan.
If Zhao Chongyi or the child she gave birth to died, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother would definitely attract great suspicion, but now that Zhao Chongyi was fine, she gave birth to a deformed fetus, and the wind immediately turned to a direction unfavorable to the Zhao family - even a healthy child could not be conceived, Zhao Chongyi must be an unlucky person, and she did not even have the blessing of having a dragon fetus!
