Even though they had long known, when the imperial physician announced it once more, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess couldn't help but joyfully grasp each other's hands.
The Crown Prince cleared his throat lightly and routinely asked, "How long has it been?"
The imperial physician then inquired in detail about the date of the Crown Princess's last menstrual period and the time of intercourse, of course, answered by the attendants serving the Crown Princess.
After calculating the time in his mind and combining it with the pulse diagnosis, he said, "It's approximately just over a month."
The Crown Prince nodded slightly, which matched roughly with Zhou Man's estimation, so was Zhou Man's pulse diagnosis now better than the imperial physician's?
This thought flashed through his mind, and the senior palace maid beside the Crown Princess said to the imperial physician, "The Crown Princess's term is still short; it's best not to announce it outside before three months."
