Chapter 198: Bed Climbing Palace Maid 2
Three years passed quickly and Jiang Chunxi was already seventeen years old.
The seventeen-year-old Jiang Chunxi was just like the saying that girls change a lot when they grow up. She was like a carefully watered flower bud, so beautiful that Wei Yan was frightened.
"Brother Yan, why are you looking at me like that? Your brows are furrowed so tightly. Be careful not to wrinkle yourself into a little old man." Jiang Chunxi was eating a bowl of ice jelly at this time. In the hot summer, eating such a bowl of ice jelly was so refreshing.
"Chun Xi, I'm afraid," Wei Yan said with a worried look, "Your current appearance makes me frightened every day. I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect you."
"Don't worry! I try not to go out and show myself. Even if I go out, I keep my head down and try not to let people notice my appearance." Jiang Chunxi quickly put down the ice powder in her hand, grabbed Wei Yan's hand and said, "Brother Yan, I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, my aunt is here, she will definitely help us."
"Originally, my aunt planned to wait until I was eighteen years old before asking the emperor to grant us a marriage, but with my current appearance, my aunt is worried that something unexpected might happen, so she plans to ask the emperor to grant us a marriage as soon as possible to avoid any changes if we delay."
"But recently the emperor is worried about the severe drought in the northwest, so it's not a good time for me to ask him to grant us a marriage. Please wait a little longer. After the drought in the northwest is over, I will immediately ask him to grant us a marriage."
Wei Yan's expression became visibly happy, he was so surprised.
"Look at you, a useless person, yet you're so happy." Jiang Chunxi let go of Wei Yan's hand and glared at him coquettishly.
"Of course," Wei Yan said with a smile, "When I think about marrying you soon, I am so happy that I feel like flying."
"Chun Xi," Wei Yan said with a serious expression, "I will definitely treat you well, and I will treat you like a treasure for the rest of my life. I will never let you down."
It seems that he has to break up with Yingrui as soon as possible. Although he is reluctant to do so, after all, the pleasure that Yingrui brings him is incomparable.
But after he and Chunxi get married, he can no longer do anything to let Chunxi down, otherwise if he arouses Chunxi's suspicion, it will be all over.
You know, he still has scratches on his back from Yingrui last night.
It is worth mentioning here that Chenpin is now Chenfei. Because Wei Yan provided Chenpin with the emperor's preferences, Chenfei is more favored than in her previous life and was made a concubine by the emperor because he had no children.
You know, in the original owner's previous life, Concubine Chen was made a concubine by the emperor only after she became pregnant.
However, Concubine Chen was destined not to be pregnant in this life. After all, Jiang Chunxi had already spent a large amount of points through the system to drug Concubine Chen, thus eliminating her reproductive function.
"Yes! I believe in Brother Yan." Jiang Chunxi naturally pretended to trust Wei Yan very much.
Seeing that Jiang Chunxi trusted him so much, Wei Yan couldn't help feeling guilty, and at the same time he became more determined to break up with Yingrui.
At the same time, in the Chonghua Palace of Concubine Chen.
"How is my health?" said the Concubine Chen as she looked at the Imperial Physician Wu who was taking her pulse. Imperial Physician Wu was naturally won over by Yingyan using the beauty trap.
Of course, the beauty trap alone is not enough for Imperial Physician Wu. After all, an imperial physician is not a eunuch. The reason why Imperial Physician Wu can be used by Concubine Chen is mainly because of Concubine Chen's favor. By joining Concubine Chen, he can get an opportunity for promotion.
After all, the competition in the Imperial Medical Bureau is very fierce. It is difficult to get promoted without a backer. It was only after Doctor Wu joined the Empress Dowager that he was able to succeed in the Imperial Medical Bureau.
"Your Majesty is in good health, and there is nothing wrong." Doctor Wu withdrew his hand and replied respectfully:
"Then why can't I get pregnant?" The Concubine Chen was not satisfied with what Doctor Wu said. "Are you sure that my body has not been manipulated by others?"
"Your humble servant is certain that there is no trace of Chinese medicine in Her Majesty's body," Doctor Wu said with certainty. "After all, no matter how secretive the sterilization medicine is, once it is taken, the pulse condition can be diagnosed. So Your Majesty is absolutely not being schemed by others."
Concubine Chen still trusted Doctor Wu's medical skills, but the worry on her brows could not be dispelled: "Why can't I get pregnant? I have taken so many pregnancy-preserving medicines, but they are of no use at all."
"Alas!" Concubine Chen sighed sadly, "Although the emperor loves me, a woman who is a palace maid has no children, so my love is just like floating duckweed without roots. Moreover, the emperor has come to Chonghua Palace less and less frequently in the past six months. If I don't get pregnant with an heir soon, I'm afraid the emperor will be less willing to come to Chonghua Palace."
After three years of hard work, Concubine Chen did gain a little bit of the emperor's true love. If she gave birth to a prince as she wished, the emperor's true love would be enough for her. With the emperor's true love, the prince she gave birth to would naturally be special in the emperor's heart.
But the problem is that she can't get pregnant!
In addition, there were beauties popping up one after another in the palace. Although the emperor felt that she was different from others, he no longer felt fresh about her, so he naturally came to Chonghua Palace less often.
Especially in the past few years, there have been three more princes in the palace, and all of them were born to high-ranking concubines.
Concubine Liu, Concubine Chun, and Concubine Jing all gave birth to princes, so how could Concubine Chen not be anxious?
"Perhaps it's because Your Majesty is too anxious to have a child, which has caused her too much pressure, and that's why she hasn't been able to conceive an heir," said Imperial Doctor Wu. "Besides, pregnancy is sometimes based on fate. If fate hasn't arrived, then no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to conceive."
"Instead of being so anxious, your Majesty should relax and think that the time for pregnancy has not come yet. Maybe there will be good news soon."
"It's easy to say, but..." Chen Fei looked upset, "Okay, let Yingyan take you out!"
"Then I will take my leave first." Doctor Wu stood up, bowed, and walked out with Yingyan.
"Your Highness, have a cup of tea first!" Yingrui presented the brewed tea to Concubine Chen. "I think what Imperial Doctor Wu said makes sense. When it comes to pregnancy, sometimes the more anxious you are, the harder it is to get pregnant. Your Highness should relax, then you might get pregnant soon."
"I don't want to rush, but my mentality is not something I can relax just because I want to," Chen Fei said irritably, "You know that my family has sent me another letter urging me to get pregnant quickly. With my family putting pressure on me all the time, how can I relax my mentality?"
"I have an idea," Yingrui said, "Why don't you adopt a child first? Even though it's not your own, with a prince under your knees, your pressure will naturally be relieved, and the master and the mistress won't put too much pressure on you anymore."
