Actually, because she was pregnant, she couldn't bear to see children suffer.
"Let Doctor Xu take a look at her later!"
It's really hard to say how long Mu Tou can live in his current state.
Han Luoxue nodded and did not object.
As expected, the child could not shed the skin.
In his current state, he can live for another three to five years. But if he needs a skin transplant, even with suitable skin, it might not be successful.
It's very likely he'll die.
Thinking back to the few times I'd seen Mu Tou before, this child was exceptionally thin and small. It made sense; it was during a famine year, when people were starving and cold, and the child hadn't grown much.
Han Luoxue suddenly remembered something she had witnessed before: her younger brother had been roasted and eaten. He was even more pitiful than this piece of wood.
Fortunately, she traveled through time, thus averting a tragedy.
The Han family is really cold-blooded, to be honest.
If Grandma Han had been more attentive back then and kept the child, none of this would have happened.
That evening, Han Luoxue couldn't help but ask Han Yuchen about the situation.
Unfortunately, not many messages were able to get through.
Xi Wujue is now in Han Yuchen's hands. The emperor of Xishu Kingdom has sent people over again. This time they are much more humble than last time. Unfortunately, Han Yuchen has not agreed to their conditions.
You've harmed him, and you still want to take him back safely?
Ouyang Fu, on the other hand, has been dealt a terrible blow recently, even worse than Xi Wujue.
"Mengyao is dead. Execute her and display her head!"
Han Luoxue still told them the news. After all, Mengyao was once Han Yuchen's fiancée. She wondered if Han Yuchen would feel anything upon hearing this news.
Actually, none of that matters. What matters is that she can feel that Han Yuchen is genuinely good to her.
Upon receiving the news, Han Yuchen decided to kindly inform Ouyang Fu, after all, Mengyao was still his wife.
Upon hearing this news, Ouyang Fu remained silent for a long time.
I don’t know if he’s faking it or not, but his mental state hasn’t been quite right lately. When he’s in his room, he’s always silent, and sometimes he’s muttering “kill, kill, kill” under his breath.
It's also possible that they killed too many people last time, leaving them with a lingering trauma.
In truth, although both were princes, Ouyang Fu was much happier than Ouyang Zhen.
Everything Ouyang Zhen achieved was earned bit by bit on the battlefield. Ouyang Fu, on the other hand, was like a flower in a greenhouse, always protected in the palace.
This led to his egocentric nature and his disregard for the people below him.
After Ouyang Zhen left, Ouyang Fu raised his head, a hint of pleasure flashing in his eyes.
He opened his mouth and muttered under his breath, "Good riddance. That vile woman should have died a long time ago. How come I never noticed before how despicable she was?"
In fact, Mengyao is really good-looking, one of the best in the capital.
I remember back then, many talented young men in the capital were fond of Miss Mengyao.
Unfortunately, she was already taken. She had a fiancé, Prince Zhen.
At that time, Ouyang Fu also liked Mengyao and even had contact with her, but unfortunately, that woman was arrogant and didn't take him seriously at all.
Later, Ouyang Zhen got into trouble and his fate was unknown. The Meng family urgently needed to find a powerful person, and since he had feelings for Meng Yao, their marriage was a natural progression.
He tried several times, but Mengyao was extremely tactful.
Ouyang Fu also suspected that Mengyao might not have forgotten Prince Zhen. Unfortunately, he had never been able to confirm it.
Until later, when King Zhen reappeared...
"Serves you right. I hope we never meet again in the next life!"
Ouyang Fu muttered to himself, wondering where his future lay. Although he hadn't died, Ouyang Zhen treated him badly, beating him every few days.
We'll spare his life, but we'll make sure he doesn't get away with it!
He gave a bitter smile, unsure how to face the days to come. He wondered what his mother was doing in the palace; he wished she could send someone to rescue him!
...
"Have you still not been able to contact His Highness?"
When the Empress heard the news, she was so angry that she smashed countless things.
The Empress was extremely anxious because she could not find the people who were looking for the Crown Prince.
Why didn't she realize before that Ouyang Zhen was so meticulous?
"Your Majesty, there are none at the moment."
The empress was so angry that she wanted to kill someone right then and there.
"Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here!"
The Empress took a deep breath and let the imperial physician in.
"How is it? Is the baby in your belly a boy or a girl? How are you doing now?"
Upon hearing the question, the imperial physician hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, it should be a son!"
The Empress's eyes lit up with joy. Regardless of whether the Crown Prince was alright or not, it was still good that he could leave behind an heir.
"The child is healthy now, so Your Majesty can rest assured."
The Empress was even happier and instructed her maid to give the imperial physician a generous reward.
Feeling much better, the Empress even went to see Mengqing. Mengqing was overjoyed to see the Empress in person.
The Empress instructed, "You must take good care of your health and the child. Once the child is born, I will promote you to the rank of Consort."
This wasn't the first time the Empress had said this, and Meng Qing was still very happy to hear it. Even if she wasn't the principal wife, she was still delighted to become a concubine.
She knew her status was lowly, and if it weren't for the Crown Prince's accident, the Empress would never have taken a liking to her.
She used to resent Mengyao, but now she has to thank her.
After the Empress left, the Fifth Consort was extremely excited: "Qing'er, if you can really become a concubine, I will be content with my life."
