Chapter 162 The Secret of Infertility

"The old lady is ill?"

The note was an encrypted message from Northern Xinjiang, which not only sent him greetings but also conveyed such an important message.

"She probably just wants to come back. After all, things have changed. No matter how well they are taken care of there, it is still not as good as in Kyoto. Moreover, business is booming everywhere now, so it is not difficult for them to get to know some news in the capital."

"They are my relatives after all, and I can't always be alone."

"Si Chao, although the political situation is changing rapidly, it may not change for ten or even dozens of years, right? We can't spend our whole lives on guard and waste our time like this."

"Life still has to go on."

"If I had a choice, I would rather have the elixir of life and stop at this moment."

At least the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and no one is suffering.

Unfortunately, there are always people who can’t stand seeing others doing well and don’t give them a chance to live.

Their eyes met and Si Chao roughly understood that it was probably the scenes of the New Year and the happy family and some things about the Crown Princess that touched his nerves.

How can a human being not have seven emotions and six desires?

"So you took her out on purpose and made such a scene just to test the waters in advance?"

"Cough cough~"

Si Chao had mixed emotions, but Beitang Yi blushed, feeling extremely guilty and ashamed:

How could he have so many ideas?

He just wanted to make the beauty smile.

"If you get married, no matter who did it and what the purpose was, the Crown Princess' move will be ruined. If you get out of control, I don't know how many people will be in turmoil, and your previous cooperation will be in vain..."

Si Chao still felt that this was a bad move.

Why is he so persistent in giving that woman a legitimate status?

Isn't it good to maintain the status quo?

It will do him no harm and only good.

"Who said I'm out of control? You should be aware of this if you try to use a married woman to restrain me! We always thought that the prince was too ambitious and wanted to have both beauty and power, but now it seems that's not entirely true."

If the prince had such an intention, he should not have been so perfunctory towards Yu Hua. The more sincere and nice he was to Yu Hua, the more likely he would be to achieve his goal from him.

Now it seems that he is also putting on a show.

"You mean there might be some other reason why the prince wanted to marry her and she remarried? It's not what people say that the prince fell in love with her at first sight and had to marry her. Maybe the prince was forced or had other reasons?"

"It's hard to say, but our separation must have something to do with the war that year."

Recently, Beitang Yi has always had a strong intuition like this. He glanced at the visiting card in his hand and said:

"It doesn't matter. I'll be a living signboard every day I'm here. The less they can do anything about me, the more nervous I'll be and the more likely I'll be to show my true colors. I want to see who can't tolerate our family."

The hands under the table clenched, and Beitang Yi's stiff figure slowly relaxed:

"First, do what I told you to do. Also, Si Chao, you have a lot of ideas, you have to help me think of a more appropriate way to marry her. You don't know how difficult her life is in the Marquis' Mansion..."

He picked out a few things about Mu Lianzhi being plotted against and having her blood taken and mentioned them to him again. Beitang Yi could hardly hide his anger, but Si Chao just wanted to roll his eyes:

"Alright, it's not like I don't know about this. Don't try to pity me. I'm not such a heartless person. I just didn't expect that the Marquis of Pingyong's Mansion could be so filthy."

Afterwards, regarding the visiting card, the two discussed the follow-up plan in detail from beginning to end.

……

Early the next morning, Ling Feier returned to the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion.

When she entered the room, she first went to greet the old lady, mother-in-law and the others and admitted her mistake. After a polite greeting, she hurried back to her room, closed the door, and began to search everywhere.

She didn't think highly of the things Hua Shuolei gave her, so she didn't keep much and most of them were just for show. She had smashed and destroyed some of them in anger because of the explosive news of her pregnancy, so there were even fewer things left.

After searching through the box, Ling Feier found several special clothes that had been hidden in the bottom of the box, some exotic jewelry, and some unused hand-embroidered purses and handkerchiefs.

It was spread out on the table and she could see the end at a glance. She turned it over and over several times, but she didn't notice anything unusual.

"Panxia, ​​go get a doctor from the palace, and do it secretly. If anyone asks, just say I have a stomachache."

"Yes."

Soon, a slightly older doctor was invited in. After giving the doctor some silver, Ling Feier found an excuse to ask him to help check the things on the table.

"no problem?"

After hearing the doctor's report, Ling Feier cursed Mu Lianzhi in her heart.

"Yes, Princess, rest assured, these things are non-toxic and will not affect your body if you wear them normally. You may feel itchy and dizzy just by chance or psychologically. Your body is slightly cold, but it's nothing serious. I will prescribe some medicine for you later."

"Thank you, Doctor Duan."

Just as she was about to ask the maid to send the doctor out, she suddenly remembered something and said:

"Doctor Duan, please stay."

"Since the doctor is here, could you help me check if there is anything inappropriate in the house? I won't hide it from you. I'm sure you know my situation. I also want to help the prince have children as soon as possible."

As she spoke, Ling Feier took out another fifty-liang silver note and stuffed it over, thinking that this trip should not be in vain and it would be better to put the money to good use.

"I understand, I understand. This is what I should do."

After receiving the money, the doctor nodded with a smile, checked the patient all the way and went straight to the bedroom.

Seeing the old doctor go to the bedside, Ling Feier panicked for a moment as she remembered something. She raised her hand to stop him, but saw that the old doctor had already pulled down a sachet hanging on the bedside.

"Hey~"

Afraid that the doctor might notice that some aphrodisiac drugs were added, Ling Feier was about to say "No need to check this", but she saw that the doctor had already opened the sachet and squeezed out some spices:

"Cardamom, ylang-ylang, tuberose...purple eggplant flower, persimmon calyx?"

Hearing the doctor's muttering, Ling Fei'er blushed. She took a few big steps forward, and her voice unconsciously rose a few notes:

"Doctor Duan——"

These were all spices for aphrodisiacs. She had consulted the doctor before, fearing that he would say something he shouldn't. Ling Feier winked at him and was about to reach out to grab it back, but she saw him pinching a little ashes and saying:

"These are all contraceptives."

what?

Ling Feier was shocked. She paused, still unable to believe her ears:

"Doctor Duan, what did you just say?"

Is it fertility assistance or contraception?

Looking at the red sachet in his hand again, Ling Feier said uncertainly:

"Are you mistaken? Isn't Yilan helpful for couples' affairs?"

She didn't know anything else, but she remembered this very clearly. She had consulted a doctor privately before, and the doctor said that this spice was very precious.

She had heard Hua Shuolei mention the first three, what were the last two?

Did she put the persimmon calyx that she didn't want in there to make up the number and disgust her?
