One month later
Today was the day the imperial physician had scheduled to check on Su Su's pregnancy. Prince Cheng, who had asked his uncle for permission to take care of Su Su at the palace for almost half a month, took her to sit and wait for the imperial physician in the guest hall. Nanny Chu had told the servants to bring snacks and tea for the two of them to eat and drink to kill time.
Su Su and Prince Cheng had been chatting for almost two keu before the palace guards led the imperial physician in to pay their respects to the two of them. Then, they dutifully checked the imperial consort's pulse. The imperial physician did not take long to examine her before releasing his hand and taking out a thin white cloth before reporting the imperial consort's condition to Prince Cheng.
“ Your Highness is now two months pregnant. The baby’s pulse is very regular. This month, I will give you some pregnancy tonics. I wonder if Your Highness is still feeling nauseous and vomiting.”
