Chapter 1634 - 595: The Fake True Heiress (Part 16)_3

"If I were the Ma Family, I definitely wouldn’t let go of such a crucial occasion!"

Ripping open the "mystery of one’s origins" in public has a doubled effect.

"What a pity I’ve already left the Marquis Mansion. Wanting to see that ’legendary scene’ with my own eyes... ahem, well, it’s not impossible!"

Even though He Tiantian had left the Marquis Mansion, she’d already managed to connect with Lady Wei before leaving.

Right when He Tiantian’s Medicinal Food Restaurant had just opened, Lady Wei personally came to offer her congratulations and even brought a gift.

He Tiantian used the excuse of supporting Lady Wei with her hand to secretly take her pulse—

Smooth as rolling beads, strong and vigorous.

A happy pulse.

Lady Wei was pregnant!

"Congratulations, Second Young Madam!"

He Tiantian offered her congratulations in an open and composed manner.

"I knew I couldn’t hide it from you! Ah Dian, this time I really have to thank you!"

Lady Wei looked at He Tiantian with a smile, the gratitude in her eyes almost solid enough to touch.

She truly was thankful to "He Dian". She had originally thought she would never in this life bear a child of her own.

She hadn’t expected that, at the brink of despair, she would meet a Noble.

Yes! A Noble!

Lady Wei had already forgotten about "He Dian’s" background and simply regarded her as the Noble fated for her in this life.

"It’s also because you, Second Young Madam, persisted with the regimen and cooperated actively. Otherwise, no matter how effective my folk prescription is, it would be useless!"

He Tiantian spoke modestly.

"No need to push the credit away. Your prescription is good, and you’re even better!"

Lady Wei had long since taken He Tiantian as one of her own. After a few polite words, she moved to the main topic: "By the way, Ah Dian, this body-regulating prescription of yours—can other people use it?"

This was also Lady Wei’s second reason for coming to He Tiantian. The first, naturally, was to congratulate her on the opening.

And between these two reasons, the second seemed more important.

When Lady Wei asked, her voice couldn’t help dropping, "For example, can it be given to men?"

He Tiantian’s eyes flashed. Here it comes, finally!

She had helped Lady Wei regulate her body also for a "second reason".

That was to use this to connect with that supreme figure.

In a feudal dynasty where imperial power reigned supreme, with a status too low, even someone like He Tiantian, armed with countless unique skills, would find it hard to use them.

She had to stand at a high enough vantage point to smoothly carry out her plan.

"No."

He Tiantian shook her head. "This prescription is only for regulating a woman’s body."

Hearing this, the hope in Lady Wei’s eyes was instantly extinguished, and her whole person seemed somewhat deflated.

But He Tiantian continued, "However, I also have a prescription specifically for regulating a man’s body."

Lady Wei’s eyes lit up with a BIU. "Really? Ah Dian, can this prescription restore a man with deficient kidney water and then successfully let a woman conceive?"

Originally, Lady Wei hadn’t wanted to describe the condition too clearly, fearing it might be taboo.

But to be absolutely sure, she had no choice but to spell it out.

Deficient kidney water?

That’s the term in TCM.

In Western medicine, it corresponds to specific diagnoses.

For example, asthenozoospermia—weak sperm—one of the most common causes of male infertility.

The current Emperor is almost forty this year, yet under his knees there is only one Little Princess.

The harem may not have three thousand beauties, but there are more than twenty Consorts and concubines with official titles.

Over more than twenty years, only one child has been born, and no further joyous news has come from the harem; it must be the Emperor’s problem.

He is very likely suffering from asthenozoospermia.

Not complete infertility, but that it’s very difficult to make a woman conceive.

He Tiantian couldn’t personally take his pulse and hadn’t seen any pulse case notes, so it was hard to make a rash judgment; she could only infer based on the information she’d managed to gather.

"It should work! But, if you want to be more certain, you can bring the person here, or bring me the pulse case notes written by the physician who examined him, or the prescriptions he issued, and let me take a look!"

He Tiantian answered very cautiously and tactfully raised a request.

Lady Wei hesitated slightly.

Bringing the person here was definitely impossible.

First, because "He Dian’s" status was too low; second, because they had to consider that Noble’s dignity.

As for bringing over the pulse record or prescriptions, that wasn’t impossible, but Prince Yongchang’s Mansion would have to bear a certain risk.

Originally, Lady Wei had planned to take the prescription and try it first on a few men with the same condition. Once there were definite results, then proceed to the next step.

But seeing how confident He Tiantian was, and thinking of her own situation, Lady Wei suddenly had a new idea.

After leaving He Tiantian’s Medicinal Food Restaurant, Lady Wei did not return to the Marquis Mansion, but went directly to Prince Yongchang’s Mansion.

Prince Yongchang, the Princess Consort, the Princely Heir and the others listened to Lady Wei’s account and then had the in-house physicians carefully take Lady Wei’s pulse, confirming that Lady Wei, who hadn’t conceived for over ten years, was indeed pregnant.

"Good! Then we’ll give it a try! We’re all Wei royal family, and I am also of the late Emperor’s bloodline—why should we let Prince Qi ride on our heads?"

Why Prince Qi?

Simply because he’s the Emperor’s own younger brother, and he can adopt out an heir to the Emperor...
