Pregnant?
Almost two months?
Fang Yun was still processing the news, feeling dizzy while Pei Yao tightly held her hand.
At this moment, Yanwei quickly said, "Your Highness, Liangdi was greatly frightened and fell from the bed. She is now unwell, probably due to the shock. Please, doctor, examine her carefully."
Hearing that Fang Yun had fallen from the bed, Pei Yao's expression tightened.
He stood aside, allowing the doctor to continue checking Fang Yun's pulse.
After a careful examination, the doctor said, "Liangdi indeed experienced fetal distress, likely from the fright and fall. Fortunately, she is young and in good health, so there's no major issue. I'll prescribe a stabilizing medicine, and after a few days, she should be fine."
Pei Yao nodded, "Thank you, Doctor. Please prescribe the stabilizing medicine."
At this point, Fang Yun had gathered herself and quickly added, "Doctor, I've been taking medicine daily to nourish my body. I don't know if the two medicines will conflict. Could you please check and advise?"
Medicine is three parts poison, so it's important to be cautious with medication. Always inform the doctor if you are already on medication.
As she spoke, Fang Yun signaled to Qingrong, who fetched the prescription from the trunk.
It was the expensive medicine arranged by Pei Yao.
The doctor examined it carefully and showed an approving expression.
"Rest assured, Liangdi. This prescription is excellent. The ingredients are beneficial to women, safe for pregnant women too. However, it focuses on nourishing rather than stabilizing the fetus, so you can stop taking it during pregnancy and switch to stabilizing medicine. After childbirth, you can resume this prescription."
Relieved by this answer, Fang Yun felt more at ease.
After sending off the doctor, Yanwei went to get the medicine while Qingrong prepared to help Fang Yun rest inside, only to see the little fox sitting by the door.
Qingrong peeked inside and saw the traces of the snake slaying still evident.
Two blood stains and sword marks on the wooden bedpost made her shiver.
No wonder the little fox didn't want to stay inside; it must feel uncomfortable.
Noticing this, Pei Yao suggested softly, "Stay in my tent tonight. We'll have this place cleaned thoroughly and replace some items."
"Alright," Fang Yun nodded.
She also felt uneasy staying there.
Everything settled, Pei Yao took Fang Yun's hand and led her outside.
Just as they stepped out, they encountered the Crown Princess and Hu Liangdi.
Seeing Fang Yun looking unwell and being supported by Pei Yao, both were puzzled.
In front of the Crown Princess, Fang Yun withdrew her hand and greeted her.
"Never mind the formalities. What's going on? Why call the doctor?" the Crown Princess waved her hand.
She had just received the news and rushed over.
The Crown Princess inquired, and Hu Liangdi also looked over with concern.
Pei Yao spoke up, "Fang Shi is pregnant, but the fetus is unstable. We called the doctor, and I'm arranging for her living quarters to be more comfortable."
