Chapter 460: The Possibility of Not Having Children

On the way to the palace, Li Hong Yuan already learned exactly which consort in the palace had good news. It was none other than Xian Consort Wei, Former Weis Princess Yi Ning.

According to the time, it wasnt getting pregnant the first time she got schemed against, but rather a certain time afterwards, these two rolled together again. Xian Consort Wei wanting to scheme for a child to stabilize her position, this was very normal, but for Le Cheng Emperor, who originally at an inappropriate time, slept with an inappropriate person, losing his face, he should be feeling very unhappy inside, so under normal circ.u.mstances, wont sleep with again a second time. Yet, Le Cheng Emperor just so happened to sleep with again. No one believed it was still a coincidence. Having a second time, there will inevitably be a third and fourth time. Exactly how many times, probably only certain people of Respectable Affairs Office

[1]

, as well as certain people in the imperial harem that pay extremely close attention knew.

For Li Hong Yuan, never mind another one of Le Cheng Emperors consort becoming pregnant now, even if there were another ten or a hundred, he all wouldnt care. Just, it just so happened to be Xian Consort Wei, and it just so happened to be when Le Cheng Emperor was deeply long for the Imperial n.o.ble Consort. If Wan Wan were to know, afraid shell be angry again.

How many men say with their mouth how deep their feelings were, yet it wont get in the way of them looking for other women to seek pleasure. Le Cheng Emperor was probably just the prime example among them. At the time, perhaps he would feel humiliated and angry, but afterwards, it wasnt anything at all.

Xian Consort Wei was just a beauty to begin with, and moreover, even n.o.ble and esteemed, raised delicate and tender. Additionally, the first time she was intimate with Le Cheng Emperor, she was already that licentious. Even if previously that membrane in her body was still there, she certainly must have experienced certain pleasures before, even possibly having been specifically trained before. As for who was able to do this kind of thing to a di princess like her, based on the Former Wei first princes certain words previously, one can guess a thing or two.

Thats why, towards Xian Consort Wei, this kind of woman, unless a man with a firm resolution, or one that doesnt covet pleasure, and not l.u.s.tful, the rest, after tasting once, it was very difficult to not touch a second time. As such, as long as Xian Consort Wei has the intention, not counting on any imperial favor, merely just wanting to have a bout of pleasure, it really wont be too difficult. After all, her status was high enough.

When Li Hong Yuan entered the palace, Le Cheng Emperor was still at Yihe Palace. As such, there wasnt anything to avoid out of taboo.

When Le Cheng Emperor learned that Li Hong Yuan was requesting an audience, he was very surprised. Moreover, he even strangely felt a bit guilty inside. As such, that originally joyous feeling all couldnt help but dilute a little, hurriedly letting someone call him in.

Li Hong Yuan was the first man that Xian Consort Wei genuinely fell for. Although it was probably because of his outstanding to the point of perfection outer appearance, her heart being moved was still nevertheless true. She was already prepared to lower herself as a side consort, yet in the end, she wasnt even able to fulfill her desire, especially when the other party never once gave her a proper look. Because of love, birthing hate, it couldnt be more normal.

Under this kind of circ.u.mstance, for him to suddenly stand before her, and also his first time setting foot in her palace, she subconsciously had her hand placed over her abdomen, suddenly producing a kind of panic like as if shed betrayed her true love, worrying that he would misunderstand, worrying that.However, all these complicated feelings just disappeared without a trace the moment she saw Li Hong Yuan. That man still didnt have her shadow in his eyes. How she was, and whether or not she was pregnant with someone elses child, all had nothing to do with him.

The satisfaction from accomplis.h.i.+ng her goal was gone, only leaving behind immense hatred. Her hand on her abdomen unconsciously tightened, faint pain also coming from her abdomen, yet Xian Consort Wei in this very moment completely didnt feel it.

Old six coming to look for this emperor at this time, what is the matter? Le Cheng Emperor put on the airs of ruler and father, covering up the abnormality inside.

This son first congratulate imperial father. Perhaps in a few months, this son will have another younger brother.

Although somewhat embarra.s.sed inside, he was still mostly happy. An imperial consort getting pregnant, wasnt that precisely the greatest recognition towards his imperial body? He was old but vigorous, so he can sit on the throne for a very long time.

However, this good mood of Le Cheng Emperors didnt last for very long.

Because this matter clearly will make his Wan Wan unhappy, Li Hong Yuan certainly wont let his old man be happy either. Thus, that pair of emotionless eyes intently stared at Le Cheng Emperor, Regarding the establishment of ceremonial altars for the Imperial n.o.ble Consort, can the auspicious date be selected and begin the operation?

This topic was completely outside of expectations. Le Cheng Emperor for a moment wasnt able to react. Reasonably speaking, this wasnt considered something urgent, so it was completely unnecessary to come look for him in a consorts palace. However, shortly after, Le Cheng Emperor suddenly came to realization, especially when his sons ice-cold gaze swept over Xian Consort Weis stomach. No matter how stupid, one would still understand what was wrong.

His Guan Guan was still roaming the mortal realm. Was she always by his side most of the times? Then.Le Cheng Emperor couldnt help but s.h.i.+ver. Previously, every time prior to rolling together with Xian Consort Wei, he seemingly would always, because of staring at Guan Guans portrait for a long time, have a hard time sleeping due to longing. If Guan Guan just happened to be by his side, how heartbroken would she be?

Seeing Le Cheng Emperors body stiffen, Li Hong Yuan was unmoved like a ripple-less old well. Because of the Imperial n.o.ble Consort, he was able to come back to life again, and afterwards, fulfill his wish. Thats why, he wanted to save her. But, her relations.h.i.+p problems were completely outside of his scope of consideration. Exactly what kind of entanglement she had with this imperial father of his had nothing to do with him.

Imperial father, this son needs to borrow these two imperial physicians, asking imperial father to graciously permit.

Because his heart was truly too guilty, Le Cheng Emperor eagerly wished for this son to quickly leave, waving his hand, Granted. Not asking the reason.

Many thanks imperial father, this son will take ones leave.

The two imperial physicians that were pretending to be the background board still withdrew by backing out. Li Hong Yuan, however, just directly turned around and stormed off. His conduct, to put it severely, was just disrespecting his superior. However, in Le Cheng Emperors eyes, this son was just angry.

On the day of his birthday banquet, what kind of reaction he had when receiving Guan Guans portrait, this son all took in. Yet, shortly after, he just slept with another woman, and even conferred her into a consort, so his son certainly would feel unhappy right now.

Li Hong Yuan took the physicians out of the palace, directly letting someone take them and send to the Head of the Imperial Academys home as quickly as possible. As for how those two imperial physicians bones will hold up, sorry, dont count on the living Enma caring.

When Li Hong Yuan returned to Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor, Jing Wan was currently waiting anxiously. Seeing Li Hong Yuan, she hurriedly went forward, Ah Yuan, how is it? If not for her status, she wouldve personally rushed over. In reality, its not that she really cant go, but rather, if she goes, never mind not being able to help, that family will even need to be busy with serving her. That was purely just causing trouble.

Already sent the imperial physicians over.

What can be done was already done. Next, it was just waiting for the results.

Seeing Jing Wan restlessly move about, Li Hong Yuans expression was somewhat heavy. However, right now, it wasnt good for him to do anything either, sending someone over, and once theres news, immediately return to report.

Just, this wait lasted nearly twenty-four hours. That night, Jing Wan naturally didnt sleep well. And of course, it certainly wasnt just her that didnt sleep well. When shes unable to sleep well, Li Hong Yuan naturally wasnt able to either. That complexion already couldnt be anymore darker.

Afterwards, they finally awaited news. The child was finally born, just the mother lost a lot of blood. The person was saved, but the core was greatly damaged, simply unable to recover in a short period of time, and afraid, wont be able to give birth anymore. Afterwards, because the child was stuck in the mothers body for too long, it was somewhat unwell, dont know whether or not it can survive.

This situation seemingly was already a great fortune, yet Jing Wans heart was still heavy, letting Gong mama open the storeroom, selecting quite a few high quality medicinal ingredients to send over. As long as the mother can recover, it will be enough. Even if unable to give birth anymore, as long as she was present, she wont let her suffer hards.h.i.+ps. Just, this child was in the stomach for too long, just fearing that without the baby fluid, it will cause a lack of oxygen, and if in the end, result in cerebral palsy due to the lack of oxygen, the blow towards Ying Shuang certainly will be destructive.

For Li Hong Yuan, giving birth to children was also just that. Although dangerous, it wasnt something he particularly cared about. Just, after hearing Jing Wan explain in detail, his eyes slightly narrowed. Towards other women, no matter how many died, it was also just that, but Wan Wan..Li Hong Yuan was contemplating the possibility of not letting Jing Wan give birth to children.

The Head of the Imperial Academys family received the things Jing Wan sent, and were naturally deeply grateful.

Afterwards, seeing that many good things, things that certain people would probably never see in their lifetime, they naturally couldnt help but produce greed, holding in their hand, loving too much to part, seemingly not wanting to put down again.

Gong mama took it all in, and towards these matters, she was very clear, so naturally just vaguely warned a few words. Whether its these things thats important, or your respective husbands future prospects thats important, one better think carefully. Jin Qinw.a.n.g although has no power and influence, blocking certain peoples future prospects was also something that couldnt be easier.

Gong mama then looked towards Zhou Ying Shuangs husband, Her Highness w.a.n.gfei very much cares for your esteemed madam. After all, the friends her Highness made after entering the capital were just those few. If not for her position, she probably wouldve personally taken the trip. Her Highness knows that youre a faithful and upright person, so one best not let down her Highnesss expectations. In the future.

The unspoken words, everyone was all clear.

Gong mama took her leave.

The Head of the Imperial Academys family each had their own thoughts. However, as long as one still has a bit of brains, then should know what to do.

Because of this matter, Jing Wans mood was down for several days, and naturally just neglected her own husband. Li Hong Yuan also just let her be, but of course, once she recovers, she will certainly suffer the consequences.

[1] Baidu translated this as Respectability Room, which is a very literal translation. Its unsure when this department was established, but this particular name for it was its name during the Qing dynasty. The building for it probably still exist inside the Forbidden City in Beijing.

This place is part of the Internal Affairs Department, and is in charge of all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, so somewhat like the HR of the palace. Its managed by the chief eunuch. The eunuchs there are also responsible for the Emperors nighttime activities, such as keeping records of which consorts the Emperor sleeps with. This is so that when a consort gets pregnant they will have something to trace back to.

Im unsure about other dynasties, but during the Qing dynasty, this office was also in charge of preparing the consorts for serving the Emperor at night. For example, when the Emperor picks the consort he will spend the night with, the eunuchs will go inform the consort, so that she can be cleaned and wrapped naked in a blanket, then carried onto the Emperors bed. This is to prevent a.s.sa.s.sinations. Cant hide a weapon if youre naked.
