Chapter 315: Chapter 316: Heart Bypass Surgery Chapter 315: Chapter 316: Heart Bypass Surgery Pei Huaian lowered his gaze, pondered for a moment, then said, “I know you’re worried that the Hidden Guards closely protecting the child will arouse suspicion, but the Zheng Family is no longer a threat.”

“Even though the Zheng Family is not a threat, the Empress and Pei Chengye have always been coveting power. If it hadn’t been for someone protecting us this time, who knows what might have happened.”

Shao He was still very worried in her heart. Xiao Linzhang was too young, and she feared he would be harmed in this strife.

Pei Huaian looked at her intently and slowly said, “If we take this opportunity to reveal the child’s identity, more people will pay attention to him. Then, even if Pei Chengye wants to make a move, he’ll have to weigh his options carefully.”

Seeing the silent figure before him, he continued, “I will bear all the infamy alone.”

Pei Huaian was aware of the reason for Shao He’s status, and if the matter spread, it would certainly be criticized. But he was willing to take on all the responsibility himself and shoulder all the blame.

Shao He pursed her lips tightly, feeling that now was not the right time to reveal the child’s identity.

“The Emperor’s condition is not good right now; he can’t afford any significant emotional disturbances. If he were to find out this news, his heart might not be able to bear it, which would greatly affect his illness.”

Pei Huaian knew she was making excuses to reject him and couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

He had always hoped that the child could officially acknowledge his lineage so he could stand openly in front of everyone and declare him as his son. However, he also accepted Shao He’s perspective.

Shao He saw the originally bright-eyed figure become dejected in an instant, felt a pang of heartache, and couldn’t bear to see him so disappointed. She said, “Wait until the Emperor’s condition improves slightly, then you can reveal the child’s identity.”

Pei Huaian suddenly looked up at her, his eyes filled with surprise and delight. This meant he had to carefully consider his next steps. What he needed to do now was ensure that Shao He could become the Principal Wife, and to marry only her. This was something he had to carefully plan.

The next morning, Shao He went to the Emperor’s room to examine him.

As she pushed the door open, she saw the Empress in the room and paused for a second.

“Why are you so late? Hurry over and examine the Emperor. What are you standing there for!” The Empress’s brows knitted into a frown, her tone somewhat harsh.

Shao He snapped back to reality and quickly stepped forward to take the Emperor’s pulse. She withdrew her wrist and before she could speak, the Empress preemptively asked, “How is the Emperor’s health? Why are you standing there? Hurry up and go prepare the medicine!”

“If that’s the case, why are you still lingering here?” the Empress said irritably.

The way she spoke was as if she found Shao He superfluous. With no choice, Shao He replied, “I haven’t finished examining the Emperor; I can’t prescribe medicine blindly.”

After hearing this, the Empress snorted coldly, “You really think too highly of yourself. If there were other Imperial Physicians available, it wouldn’t be your turn to examine the Emperor.”

Disdain filled her eyes as she looked at Shao He from head to toe, not giving her a second glance, and barked orders as if she thought this would highlight her status.

Shao He didn’t take offense, and very politely said, “Empress, please step out for a moment. I need to perform a full examination on the Emperor.”

“Why can’t I stay and watch while you examine the Emperor? Could it be that you intend to do something to the Emperor?” The Empress was naturally unwilling to leave and spoke with a mocking tone.

“Please forgive me, Your Highness,” Shao He said, without another word, bowing her head very respectfully, seemingly indicating she wouldn’t examine the Emperor if the Empress didn’t leave.

Seeing her attitude, the Empress was extremely displeased, and was about to scold her when the Emperor said, “You go out first.”

“Yes,” the Empress had no choice but to bow and exit the room.

Shao He conducted a full examination of the Emperor with medical equipment, and the final diagnosis confirmed that there was a problem with his heart, possibly requiring coronary artery bypass surgery.

She called everyone in and announced in front of the Emperor, “There is indeed a problem with the heart. Coronary artery bypass surgery needs to be performed.”

“What is coronary artery bypass surgery?” Pei Siyang was the first to ask,

“It’s the first time I’m hearing that a bridge can be built on the heart. You’re clearly talking nonsense,” Pei Chengye said with a mixture of mockery and scorn.

Hearing their doubts, Shao He immediately explained, “Coronary artery bypass surgery involves taking a blood vessel from another part of the patient’s body and attaching it to the coronary artery, bypassing sections narrowed by atherosclerosis or blocked by blood clots, creating a new route for the blood flow.”

“Is surgery necessary?” Pei Huaian didn’t fully understand what she said, but one thing was clear, his father, the Emperor, might require open-heart surgery.

“I am only sixty percent confident,” she replied.

No sooner had Shao He finished than Pei Chengye accused her, “With only sixty percent confidence, you dare to propose it. Do you think your life is worth the Emperor’s? If something goes wrong, ten of your lives won’t be enough to compensate!”

At this moment, Pei Chengye was not in a favorable position in the court. The Empress, of course, was the last person who wanted the Emperor to pass away at this time. The other Princes were genuinely concerned about the Emperor’s health. Everyone looked somber and worried.

“You must ensure the surgery is successful!” the Empress demanded authoritatively.

She couldn’t accept the Emperor coming to harm now; otherwise, her years of preparation would be in vain, merely benefiting others.
