Chapter 1605 - 586: The Fake True Heiress (Part 7)

"No need!"

He Tiantian instinctively shouted.

After shouting, she realized she might have been a bit out of line.

She quickly covered it up by saying, "I, I’m fine. Maybe it’s just that I’ve been traveling non-stop and I’m a bit tired!"

"Besides, I’m just a country girl, how dare I trouble the Imperial Physician? I don’t want to be called reckless!"

He Tiantian indeed adhered to the original character’s persona, while defending herself, she didn’t forget to put on a pitiable act, with a strong tea-like undertone in her words.

The Ma Family secretly sneered but maintained the demeanor of a noblewoman, dignified and virtuous. She said with a slight smile, "Sister, you mustn’t say such things in the future."

"You saved our Third Young Master. You are a benefactor to our family."

"Moreover, mother also mentioned just now, that a good day will be chosen in the future, for you to be formally recognized as our adopted daughter."

"By then, you will be a young lady of our Marquis Mansion, very noble, and definitely not a lowly person!"

He Tiantian showed nothing on the surface, but secretly gave the Ma Family a thumbs-up.

Listen to her words, seemingly comforting, but actually needles hidden in the cotton.

Especially the phrase "lowly person," He Tiantian would bet that the Ma Family was making a veiled insult!

It was uncertain whether the Marchioness noticed the undercurrents between the Ma Family and He Tiantian. She nodded in agreement upon hearing the Ma Family’s words: "That’s right. Ah Dian, from now on, consider the Marquis Mansion your home!"

"Since the Imperial Physician is here, might as well have him check your pulse. This way, Brother Yuan will feel at ease, and we can also rest assured!"

The latter half of the sentence was obviously implying something.

He Tiantian sighed inwardly: See, there aren’t many women in the inner chambers who are truly innocent.

The Marchioness may not know the Ma Family’s schemes, but she is also suspicious of the real relationship between "He Dian" and Gu Jingyuan.

Checking the pulse to confirm if He Dian is pregnant.

No matter what happens in the future, their Marquis Mansion won’t be too passive!

"..." He Tiantian deliberately made a hesitant expression.

But since things had come to this point, if He Tiantian continued to refuse, she would indirectly be admitting there was indeed a problem.

She had to force herself to calm down, and under the watchful eyes of everyone in the room, reached out a hand.

The Imperial Physician pretended not to see the open and secret struggle, and focused solely on extending three fingers, gently placing them on He Tiantian’s wrist.

"How is it, Imperial Physician? Is Ah Dian alright?"

The Ma Family, holding back the excitement of almost tearing off the mistress’s mask, cautiously asked.

"...Nothing serious!"

The Imperial Physician lightly raised his hand and glanced at He Tiantian’s complexion, "She might be a bit tired, coupled with exposure to the elements, her vitality is slightly insufficient. A few days of good care and she’ll be fine!"

The Ma Family’s faint smile froze on her face, "No, nothing serious?"

How is that possible?!

Lady He should be four months pregnant already!

Let alone the Imperial Physician, even a random quack on the street could see it!

Could the Imperial Physician have been bought, helping Lady He cheat?

Or is the Imperial Physician too shrewd, unwilling to get involved in the Marquis Mansion’s inner scandals?

The moment such thoughts arose, the Ma Family dismissed them.

Impossible!

Because the Imperial Physician was specially requested by her; she specifically asked for the most upright Imperial Doctor Feng from the Imperial Hospital.

This Imperial Doctor Feng sees only patients in his eyes, completely ignorant of worldly manners.

So, despite having the best medical skills in the Imperial Hospital for over ten years, he’s still just a regular Imperial Physician.

There’s no way Imperial Doctor Feng would intentionally conceal an illness!

...Could it be that Lady He really isn’t pregnant?!

Has the plot changed significantly again?!

Lady He, internally startled and uncertain, after smoothly sailing since her arrival, suddenly encountered a setback.

It made her abruptly more vigilant!

"Yes, this young lady has a good constitution, just overly exhausted in recent months, making her somewhat deficient. With proper care afterward, she’ll be fine!"

Imperial Doctor Feng put away his pulse-measuring tools and reiterated to the Marchioness.

"Good! That’s good! Thank you, Imperial Doctor Feng!"

The Marchioness secretly breathed a sigh of relief and signaled to a servant woman by her side.

The servant woman understood, quickly retrieved a red envelope, and diligently escorted Imperial Doctor Feng out of the Marquis Mansion.

"Alright, since there’s nothing serious, just rest well."

The Marchioness looked at the Ma Family, "Third Young Madam, Brother Yuan is physically fine, but his memory is still lacking. You might as well take him back to Pagoda Courtyard; perhaps seeing his own dwelling will help him remember more things."

"Also, Ah Dian is a benefactor of our family, and also one of ours. As such, I, as the Marchioness, should settle her."

"But she’s ultimately closer to Brother Yuan, and she’s the Noble of your third branch, so it’s best for you to make the arrangements!"
