These words are enough to show how much the Empress Dowager loved her.
Can the princes be chosen at will?
This favor is truly unique.
However, given the illustrious Shen family and Shen Zhiyi's status as an only daughter, they certainly have the means to do so.
Shen Zhiyi then continued, "That's because three years ago during the spring hunt, Song Yuxiu was injured while saving me."
"Everyone in the capital knows about this," the Empress Dowager said frankly.
Song Yuxiu's breathing became slightly deep.
What was she trying to say?
“He said that because he injured his body saving me, he had difficulty conceiving and was unable to have children. I already had feelings for him at the time, and I felt guilty, so I decided in my heart that he was the one!” Shen Zhiyi’s eyes reddened as she spoke.
Suddenly she turned to look at Song Yuxiu, "You said that you are infertile and impotent, so we haven't even had sex in the two years since we got married, which is why we haven't had any children."
Why did you lie to me?!
"Not only can you have children, but you even have both a son and a daughter? Then why did you marry me!"
This statement caused an uproar among the crowd.

The Empress Dowager's face turned ashen as she glared at Song Yuxiu: "Young Master Song! Is what Zhiyi said true?"

"Your Majesty, I have no idea what she is talking about. How could I be infertile?"
"You clearly said that you were injured by the horse while saving me." Shen Zhiyi looked surprised.

Song Yuxiu sneered, "Empress Dowager, I have a son and a daughter. How could they possibly be suffering from a disease that renders them infertile and unable to have children!"
“This matter concerns the reputation of me and the entire Marquis’s mansion. I implore the Empress Dowager to take charge and clear my name.”
Zhou Xuance chuckled: "This is simple, just summon the imperial physician!"
As he spoke, he instructed Kong Qing beside him, "Call more imperial physicians, lest one of them make a wrong diagnosis."
Kong Qing nodded and then quickly left.
Song Yuxiu was extremely pleased with himself.
Shen Zhiyi, you don't want to be my concubine, so you insist on a fight to the death, right?
I'm afraid you'll only get a concubine position in the end!
The Song family members were also secretly laughing at her:
Stupid as a pig.
