Imperial Physician Zhang was drenched in a cold sweat.
As was Imperial Physician Yu.
They both felt that things were not going to end well this time.
They had been coerced by the Empress to join this ordeal. But should things go awry, they could not possibly serve the Empress up as the culprit. At such time, they could only shoulder the blame themselves.
What awaited them then?
They could well imagine!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Imperial Physician Zhang, his hand shaky, placed it onto Ouyang Jing's pulse.
The strong pulsating rhythm confirmed what Ouyang Jing had previously claimed, and it was not a bluff.
He fell to his knees with a thud: "In response to Your Majesty the Empress, Madam Ouyang's pulse is strong. The fetus inside her should be about three months old, and it appears to be very healthy at present!"
Covering a lie would require many more lies.
