BXBX NOVEL Chapter 79 - 79: Really Pregnant?
“Fine, I got it… Huh?” Jiang Ning muttered and suddenly realized something, looking up at him in disbelief, “What… did you say?”
Imperial Physician Wei stood up with a broad smile and cupped his hands, “You are with child, this is a pregnancy pulse.”
Jiang Ning looked at him up and down, “You sure?”
“I have been a physician for thirty years, and have diagnosed countless cases; I can certainly be sure of this.”
“Oh…” Jiang Ning dragged out the last syllable, “then listen, tell me, how many months am I?”
“The pulse is clear but weak, which means the pregnancy is not long. If I had to count, just over a month.”
Huang Ying couldn’t help but laugh at Jiang Ning’s side.
Jiang Ning laughed too.
Just over a month.
This old man was going crazy.
What was he up to?
“Imperial Physician Wei, who instructed you to say this?” Jiang Ning couldn’t help but ask, “After all, you are an Imperial Physician. With a heart as a parent, should there be even half a truth in what we say?”
Imperial Physician Wei still had that smile on his face, “Every word this old man says is true.”
“Go away.”
Jiang Ning was extremely annoyed by his greasy face.
She knew she couldn’t get anything out of him, so she waved him away.
Although she hadn’t figured out the situation, she had a vague guess in her mind.
Who else could manipulate an Imperial Physician other than the Emperor?
Old Man Li had been pretending to be poor and asking for food from her all along, and he returned to his identity as an emperor after his recovery.
It would be strange if this matter had nothing to do with him.
She could almost be sure that Old Man Li knew who the child’s biological father was.
Following this line of thought, Old Man Li was the ruler, the Emperor. Would he let his own son wear a cuckold?
Definitely not.
Since he knew about her pregnancy and still allowed the Prince of Yu to marry her, it meant—
Jiang Ning shivered.
Could the child’s birth father be the Prince of Yu?
Jiang Ning was frightened by this speculation.
Did the Prince of Yu ever… had relations with the original host?
However, thinking about the timeline, things didn’t seem right.
Based on her current pregnancy, she had already been pregnant when she traveled through time.
Why didn’t she have any recollection of this?
She didn’t remember anything happening.
And judging by the performance of the Prince of Yu, he didn’t seem to know about such a thing either.
Could it be Old Man Li’s scheme?
It wasn’t impossible.
Thinking back, more than three months ago, Old Man Li had brought a pot of wine and she got drunk after only one glass, and slept until the next afternoon.
At that time, she thought it was because the wine was too strong and her alcohol tolerance was too low.
Now that she thought about it…
If something really happened, it could only be that night.
Jiang Ning kept rubbing her chin, thinking for a long time.
After all this thinking, the only thing she could do was confront Old Man Li and ask him directly about the matter.
By this time, there was already a commotion outside.
Upon leaving, the Imperial Physician Wei informed Concubine Jin about the matter.
All the noble ladies were greatly surprised.
She was really pregnant.
Concubine Jin remained calm, looking at her son and saying, “Your wife is pregnant, it’s a happy occasion. There is no need to stay here, take her home to rest.”
Li Hongyuan replied with an affirmative and frowned slightly.
That woman was really pregnant?
At this moment, Huang Ying came out pushing the wheelchair.
Everyone’s gaze was drawn to the beautiful face of the young girl in the wheelchair.
She was indeed pretty.
But somehow…
Lacking the noble elegance of a well-born young lady, she seemed more casual and careless.
This actually made it easy for people to overlook her beauty.
Li Hongyuan took the wheelchair and said, “Let’s discuss this after we get back..”
