Chapter 164 Fertility-enhancing drugs?
Shen Li lowered his eyes to glance at the Phoenix Seal on his hand and said, "I want to own it, what do you think?"
Yun Chenyu laughed dryly.
"How can this be?"
"Why not? If you become the emperor, won't I be able to own it?"
"You're planning a rebellion!"
Shen Li pursed his lips and said, "I'm not interested in rebellion. I just want to live a good life. But some people just can't stand me doing well. What do you say I should do? I have no choice but to take their place! Don't you want to be the emperor?"
Yun Chenyu lowered his dark and thick eyes, slightly thoughtful.
As an ambitious prince, how could he not want to be emperor?
However, the crown prince has already been decided, and he may have a chance unless something special happens to depose the crown prince.
Shen Li knew Yun Chenyu's thoughts and said:
"The game is still undecided, and the outcome remains unknown."
……
It was late at night, and the two of them were still sleeping together as before, separated by a pillow, until dawn.
The Queen Mother knew that Yun Chenyu stayed here last night, and she kept nagging, "Yu'er, are you so reluctant to leave your darling wife? I only kept her for one night, and you're so impatient to come here!"
"Grandmother, I was late last night handling official business in the palace, so I didn't return to the palace."
"Okay, okay, I was overthinking it." The Queen Mother looked at Yun Chenyu lovingly, "But no matter how busy you are with official duties, you must take some time to spend with your little wife."
"Yes, grandson understands." Yun Chenyu bowed, "Grandmother, I have things to attend to, so I will leave first."
"Okay, let's go."
As soon as Yun Chenyu left, the empress dowager waved and called Shen Li to her side.
Holding her hand, he said lovingly, "Ali, have you been feeling unwell recently?"
Shen Li was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
The Queen Mother wanted to know whether she was pregnant.
She has been looking forward to having a great-grandson for many years.
Until now, I still haven't had a great-grandson.
Shen Li bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Grandmother. There is nothing wrong with my voice."
The Queen Mother patted her hands gently.
"It's better to be cautious. While you're here, I'll ask the imperial physician to take your pulse. If you feel any discomfort, you'll need treatment as soon as possible."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said to Aunt Jinxi, "Send the imperial physician."
"Yes."
Aunt Jinxi turned and walked out the door, instructing the palace maid outside to call the imperial physician.
Shen Li hurriedly stopped her: "Grandmother, that's not necessary. I know medicine myself. If I feel unwell, I can see a doctor myself."
The Queen Mother refused to listen and said, "A doctor cannot treat himself. Let's ask the imperial physician to take a look."
Soon, the imperial physician arrived at Shou'an Palace.
After taking Shen Li's pulse, he said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with Princess Chen's health."
The Queen Mother's expectant look dimmed in an instant.
It seems that the plan for that night was in vain.
There's been so much time, and the two young people seem so affectionate, so why haven't they gotten pregnant yet?
Strange, so strange.
However, there were some things that could not be said, so the Queen Mother had to give up.
"Grandmother, do you believe it now? I'm in good health!"
The Queen Mother blinked her eyes, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.
Forget it, let’s wait a little longer. Seeing how affectionate the young couple is, there might be good news in a few days.
The Queen Mother smiled again.
"Okay. As long as there's nothing wrong."
Shen Li left Shou'an Palace on the pretext of having something to deal with at the palace.
Before leaving, he told the Queen Mother that he would come back to see her in a few days.
At the same time.
The news that the Empress Dowager asked the imperial physician to take Shen Li's pulse soon reached the ears of Zhenfei's spies in the palace.
Those spies quickly passed the message to Zhenfei.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Empress Dowager asked the imperial physician to see if Princess Chen is pregnant." Zhen Fei's personal maid said mysteriously.
"That bitch! She drove Lin Wanrou out of the palace and made Han'er so miserable now. But she is living a more carefree life now!" Zhen Fei glared at her and subconsciously clenched her fingers that were pinching the cup, her knuckles becoming even paler and bloodless.
"Where is that bitch now?"
"She just came out of Shou'an Palace and should still be inside the palace."
"Go! Call her over here. I won't be able to vent my hatred unless I teach her a lesson!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Shen Li was walking on the avenue of the imperial palace. Before he reached the palace gate, he was stopped by the eunuchs of Weiyang Palace.
"Princess Chen, Concubine Zhen invites you to go to Weiyang Palace with me."
The eunuch shook off the dust and looked at Shen Li with disgust.
Zhenfei?
Yunchenyu’s adoptive mother.
Shen Li now has no idea what connection she has with Concubine Zhen.
Yun Chenyu has drawn a clear line with Zhenfei, and Zhenfei has returned all of Shen Li's dowry.
What does it mean that she sent someone to call her?
However, based on Shen Li's understanding of Zhenfei, it was definitely not a good thing.
"Did Concubine Zhen tell me what happened?" Shen Li asked the eunuch.
The eunuch said: "Not yet."
"Go back to Concubine Zhen and tell her that I have something else to do and I won't be going for now."
The eunuch hurriedly stopped Shen Li and said, "Empress Zhenfei asked Princess Chen to go to Weiyang Palace to discuss important matters."
Shen Liyan frowned.
Something important to discuss? What important things could she and Concubine Zhen have to discuss?
However, since she had to be invited, she would go and see what tricks Zhenfei was playing.
"Lead the way." Shen Li said with a raised eyebrow.
Following the young eunuch, they walked for a quarter of an hour before arriving at the Weiyang Palace.
At this moment, Zhenfei was sitting in the main seat, eating grapes peeled for her by the palace maid.
When he saw Shen Li, his originally enjoyable look immediately turned into a harsh one.
"Shen Li, do you know why I called you here?"
"I don't know." Shen Li replied expressionlessly.
“Some time ago, the relationship between Yu’er and me became a little strained, but that was only temporary.
After all, Yu'er was raised by me since he was a child. Yunyan governs the world with filial piety, and Yu'er must understand this truth. I believe that after some time, Yu'er will figure it out and come to apologize to me.
As a mother, I naturally won't argue with my own child."
Shen Li rolled his eyes at her.
I thought to myself: You're dreaming! Even if you wait for eight hundred years, Yunchenyu will never come to apologize to you!
"What else does Zhen Fei need? There are still a lot of matters waiting for me to deal with in Prince Chen's Mansion. If there is nothing else, I will leave."
Shen Li turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait." Concubine Zhen called out to Shen Li. "I haven't finished speaking yet!"
Zhenfei's face turned from red to green in anger.
Shen Li, that little bitch, didn't even give her any face at all.
Shen Li stopped and turned around.
"If you have anything else to say, please tell me quickly, Concubine Zhen."
Concubine Zhen suppressed her anger and tried to remain calm on the surface: "Yu'er is my child, and I am very concerned about his offspring.
You and Yu'er have been married for so long but you still haven't conceived. I think there must be something wrong with your body. I have a secret recipe that can help you have a boy..."
As she spoke, she winked at the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid immediately understood.
The palace maid picked up a bowl of medicine from the table beside her and walked towards Shen Li.
Concubine Zhen said at the right moment: "This is medicine to help with pregnancy, Princess Chen, drink it quickly."
