"..." Chu Mohan's teeth grinded loudly, "Pregnancy! What does pregnancy mean? Only women can get pregnant. Obviously, I am referring to a woman!"
Little Xingxing touched her nose and said, "Then don't you explain clearly."
Chu Mohan held back his anger and said, "Just tell me if it can be cured."
"decide as things go."
Xiao Xingxing said while giving him medicine, "There are many types of infertility. If the problem is not curable, if the problem is serious, it cannot be cured if the conditions are not met.
Who is infertile, the woman outside you?"
Little Xingxing said generously, "If you have a woman outside, tell me and while I am still your princess, I can take her back and give her a title.
Otherwise, after we reconcile and divorce, you marry a princess and meet someone who is not easy to talk to, and you will never be able to take your wife back for the rest of your life."
"..." This damn woman won't leave in three words! Chu Mohan said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have a woman outside."
"Oh, yes.
If you can take a concubine just three days after marrying a princess, you can see that you are not a man who can hide the woman you like."
"Are you trying to settle old scores with me?"
"No, I'm stating the facts."
"..." Chu Mohan took a breath and returned to the lost topic, "Don't make random guesses, it's my emperor's sister-in-law."
"Princess?"
"Um."
When the Queen Mother was seriously ill, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess went to visit her. Little Xingxing met the Crown Princess once. The Crown Princess looked to be in her early twenties. She looked gentle and quiet, but there was always a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.
.
Now she knew why she was worried.
In ancient times, children were the foundation for a woman to settle down and live her life. If she could not conceive a child for seven years, her husband's family could abandon her on the grounds that they had nothing to produce.
Little Xingxing applied the ointment evenly and said casually, "Who said that if you can't get pregnant, it must be a woman's problem. If a man has a problem, he can't get pregnant."
"It's not that I couldn't get pregnant. After the emperor's brother and his wife got married, they also conceived two children, but no matter how careful they were, they would always miscarry within three months.
After two miscarriages, the emperor's sister-in-law injured her body, and the imperial doctor said that now it is difficult for the emperor's wife to conceive."
Little Xingxing thought for a while and said politely, "Could it be man-made..." "No."
Chu Mohan said in a deep voice, "Brother and sister-in-law have a very close relationship. After the wife-in-law had a miscarriage for the first time, brother-in-law thought that someone was setting her up, so he dismissed all the concubines in the East Palace.
When the emperor's sister-in-law was pregnant for the second time, the queen mother and the emperor's brother sent people to guard the emperor's wife twelve hours a day. All her food and clothing expenses were obtained after several rounds of inspections.
But the emperor’s wife still had a tire slide.”
"..." Little Xingxing raised her eyebrows.
As a prince, it is indeed commendable that he can dismiss all his concubines for the sake of the prince.
"The prince has no heirs yet?"
"Um."
No wonder Chu Mohan was sick and rushed to the doctor to find her.
Little Xingxing paused and asked him with the thinking of their time, "If your sister-in-law cannot give birth, the prince can have a concubine. If the child is born, can it be recorded in your sister-in-law's name?"
"Brother I don't want to."
"Why?"
"This king has said that he and the emperor's sister-in-law have a very close relationship."
oh.
Understood.
He just doesn't want another woman to bear his child.
In this ancient world where men were superior to women, it was not easy for the crown prince, who was at the pinnacle of power, to maintain such simple and pure feelings for the crown princess.
Little Xingxing moved with compassion, "One day I will go to the palace to show the Crown Princess, but I have to say something ugly first. Before I see the Crown Princess, I am not sure whether I can cure her illness."
It is better to have hope than no hope.
Chu Mohan said immediately, "We will enter the palace tomorrow."
"good."
...the next day.
Chu Mohan and Xiao Xingxing entered the palace together.
The two went to Cining Palace to pay their respects to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother seemed to be in much better spirits than before. When Little Xingxing asked, she took Little Xingxing's hand and said, "Grandma felt dizzy and chest tight after taking the medicine you prescribed.
The situation is much better, but grandma’s spirit is not so good.”
"Grandma, take the medicine on time. When you finish the medicine, tell Xing'er, and Xing'er will prepare it for you."
"good."
When she learned that Chu Mohan and Xiao Xingxing were here to treat the Crown Princess, the Queen Mother did not persuade her to stay. She told Little Xing Xing, "Then take a good look at the Crown Princess. As long as her body can be recuperated, tell the Crown Prince if she needs anything.
No matter how expensive the medicine is, he will find it."
It seemed that grandma liked the princess very much, so Little Xingxing nodded in agreement.
The two set off to the East Palace again. Chu Mohan was afraid of giving hope to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. Little Xingxing would not be able to heal the Crown Princess by then, so he did not say hello to the Crown Prince in advance.
When the two of them went to the East Palace, they came up empty-handed.
The palace maid told the two of them, "The Crown Princess has gone to Kunning Palace to pay her respects to the Queen."
"..." Little Xingxing paused.
She is a vengeful person, and she still remembers the incident where the Queen made her kneel as punishment.
Chu Mohan saw through her thoughts, "When you enter the palace, you have to go to Kunning Palace to pay your respects to your mother. You can't avoid it."
"Is it too late for me to leave the palace now?"
"Obviously it's too late."
Chu Mohan glanced sideways at her, "If the Queen Mother knew that you entered the palace but didn't go to greet her, she would be very angry."
"..." Little Xingxing sighed, "Let's go."
Seeing her look of death, Chu Mohan comforted her, "My mother is gentle and quiet. As long as you don't go against her, she won't do anything to you."
Little Star pouted.
Any son would think that his mother is the most gentle, kind and easy to talk to in the world.
But there is a word in this world called "Conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." In modern times, she has been to many places and met many people, and then she discovered a problem. The more backward a place is, the more serious the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is.
There are even some old ladies who are praised wherever they go and are kind to strangers, but they look like enemies when facing their own daughters-in-law.
This is ancient times.
Especially in ancient times when the country was governed by filial piety, all mothers-in-law survived their daughter-in-law's life in this way. Logically speaking, the grievances they suffered should not be suffered by their daughter-in-law again, but some mothers-in-law feel that they have gotten ahead of themselves.
It’s not easy to become the master, and I need to find a sense of presence in front of my daughter-in-law.
She had dealt with the Queen several times, and each time her experience was not good.
"I'll stay with you and won't let my mother embarrass you."
"You begged me to come and treat the Crown Princess. Of course you have to protect me."
Little Xingxing told the ugly story in advance, "If your mother comes to trouble me, I will leave in a minute."
"..." Chu Mohan glanced at her, "You really can't bear the slightest grievance."
Little Xingxing said confidently, "I am here to help you, but I still have to be abused by your mother. There is no reason in the world."
"I understand, I will protect you."
"..." Little Xingxing curled her lips.
She just can't fuck the queen, otherwise... hehehehe!
