Gu Jiao took her pulse: "The pulse is very steady, the fetus is very healthy."
However, the expression on the Princess Consort of Prince Rui did not depict much joy, she spoke dejectedly, "My elder sister-in-law lost her child."
She hadn't specifically sought out Gu Jiao for pulse diagnosis today, she was here to vent. She had no one to confide in at home, and even more so at the palace. After much consideration, only at Gu Jiao's place could she truly drop her guard.
Gu Jiao asked, "You... Which sister-in-law? The Princess Consort of Prince Ning?"
The eldest lady of the Du family was also her sister-in-law.
Princess Consort of Prince Rui nodded sullenly, "Mmm, it's Princess Consort of Prince Ning. She was feeling unwell last night and didn't sleep at all. News came from the palace in the morning that she had miscarried. It was a fully-formed male fetus."
Gu Jiao wasn't surprised by this.
