OFFERING CONCUBINES
EPISODE 103 CHESS PIECES CHANGE DIRECTION

All eyes were on the newly arrived old healer, he was escorted by a young healer who followed behind him with a wooden medicine box.

"Honor Your Majesty." Physician Guo with a beard and hair that had all whitened, bowed to His Highness Yan Yue.

"Thank you for the arrival of physician Guo." His Majesty lowered his head slightly showing respect to the healer who had been in this palace for three generations from the time when His Majesty Yan Yue's grandfather was still the king.

Physician Guo was one of the elders in Yanzhi kingdom who was highly respected and disinclined. Aside from his ability in the field of medicine being very high, he used to be a good friend of His Highness Yan Yue's grandfather.

The Queen Mother took a few steps back, trying to hide her strained look, she did not expect physician Guo to come any faster than she expected.

Usually, healers Guo travel to take medicinal ingredients can return the fastest is two weeks. Even sometimes up to a full moon in Fuyuan temple, because he sometimes did mediocre there, resting himself.

The arrival of this old physician was beyond his expectations.

This plan could evolve to be beyond estimation and chess pieces seemed to have to change direction.

Fortunately, he had already thought about if the possibility of this plan failing and being known. Physician Li Sung had sent him out of the palace, all the blame would be inflicted on the missing healer and he himself could stand as a spectator and wash his hands behind his back.

"What's wrong with concubine Yi?"Physician Guo asked, he had just arrived from Fuyuan temple to pick up some medicinal ingredients that were only in the back yard of that temple.

Hearing the granddaughter of his good friend and lover in the past, physician Bai Sheng, being sick in the palace of course this old healer could not just let it go.

"His health was not very good when he returned from his trip to Youwu. Within a week she was receiving treatment from one of your home medicine healers. It seems to be getting a little better, but tonight I received word, Consort Yi suddenly has a high fever and is bleeding." His Majesty replied while giving way to Physician Guo to approach where Xiao Yi was lying.

Xiao Yi was still stunned at the arrival of physician Guo, he felt that part of his plan had evaporated just like that.

"Concubine Yi, let me check on you." Physician Guo said in a stern voice, then turned to the young healer in front of him to bring the toolbox and medicine he had been standing on to Xiao Yi's bedside.

While physician Guo was busy with it, Xiao Yi's hand pulled a cloth under his hip that had been covered with chicken blood by Chu Cu earlier this afternoon, then slowly under the blanket he rolled it into a small roll and slipped it behind his pillow. He knew very well, healer Guo would not believe such a trick. Now he has to change plans immediately.

Physician Li Sung did not come according to his plan, but he would still expose the evil of the healer by using the presence of physician Guo, at the same time announce the pregnancy to His Majesty and the entire palace including whoever is behind the plan to poison his womb so that the harm.

Like a game of chess that he doesn't know who his enemy is, pawns still have to be on the run, though the course may have to change. For sure every game will definitely meet lose and win at the end of the fight.

"Concubine Yi, please stick out your hand." Pinta physician Guo, his old voice sounded straightforward and calm.

A moment Xiao Yi stared at Physician Guo, then his right hand slowly extended from behind the blanket clenched as if grasping something.

Physician Guo scrunched up his already wrinkled forehead, he did not understand why Xiao Yi was clenching his palms in such a way. Supposedly for a granddaughter from the descendants of a famous physician and from a mother who knew enough about the science of medicine, this girl in front of him did not do it.

Because to check a person's pulse, of course the hand must be weak and without pressure.

"Get your hands down, son."Physician Guo asked in a low voice almost a whisper. Both of Xiao Yi's eyes blinked slowly, there was a hint of doubt in that gaze.

Before Physician Guo touched his wrist, he slowly opened his clenched palm.

Physician Guo interrupted his actions, his eyes fixated on something that appeared in Xiao Yi's open hand.

Then his eyes briefly turned to Xiao Yi, as if questioning that, but Xiao Yi was silent a thousand languages.

Physician Guo took the three brownish-colored pills. Just now that healer Guo took the pill and placed it on his palm, immediately the pias of the healer's face changed color from a gasp and was full of anxiety.

"Where did you get this?" The hoarse voice of physician Guo was so nervous, while His Majesty approached out of curiosity to see the reaction of physician Guo,

"What's the healer?"

The physician had not answered anything, his eyes fixed straight on the lying Xiao Yi, while his eyes seemed to steal a glance at the Queen Mother who was staring at the place where she was standing, so tense as to watch.

"Isn't that medicine from the healer who examined you a week ago?" His Majesty took out a single item of the pill, confirming what he saw.

"Yes, I got it from healer Li Sung." Concubine Yi answered confidently, she remembered the name and face of the physician, and she had even painted it with her own hands, so that she might remember someone who wanted to harm the child in her womb.

"Don't...!" Physician Guo reflexively took Xiao Yi's hand lying on the edge of the bed. His eyes widened, his mouth slightly gaping, finding the pulse felt by his old fingers.

"Concubine Yi, you didn't take the medicine, did you?!" Physician Guo asked in a tense tone that he could not hide.

Xiao Yi turned his gaze to His Majesty, then replied in a slow but very clear voice, saying,

"I didn't drink one, healer Guo. It smells so bad, I can't bear to drink it."

The Queen mother felt like her back was hit with a piece of wood. He could hardly believe what he was hearing. And from the glint of Xiao Yi's eyes that was now staring straight at him, he knew the woman who was there was playing tricks on him.

His body seemed to shake, his legs were fixated on the floor. She never felt so threatened as she is today.

"Your Majesty..." Physician Guo turned his body around and raised his head half-subjected to His Majesty who was standing beside him.

"Your Majesty, concubine Yi is now pregnant with a child." Physician Guo said in a trembling voice.

His Eminence Yan Yue was astonished to hear him, her mouth agape as if unsure of what she was hearing, her handsome face instantly changing implying unexpressible shock and happiness.
