Chapter 5 You Didn’t Ask Me
Jinghan lay comfortably on the sedan chair and chatted with System 3657 about gossip.
I have no idea what kind of storm will happen tomorrow.
Now, let's chat for a bit.
As for my legs, I am not worried at all now!
[Tell me, which of my sisters or brothers has the same father as me but different mothers? Hehehehe...]
[Host, in this world, women give birth, so your sisters all have the same mother but different fathers. There are no sisters with the same father but different mothers!]
Jinghan slammed the table and sat up in shock.
[What? Isn't this a society where women are superior? Why are women still giving birth? Why didn't you tell me this before?!]
[Host, you didn't ask me! ]
【Then tell me in detail! 】
[Okay, host!]
After System 3657's explanation, Jinghan suddenly understood.
It turned out that the male-dominated society described in the novels she had read was actually another kind of "patriarchal society".
This world is a truly female-dominated society, where the value of reproduction is firmly in the hands of women. If a man wants a child, after fierce competition, only the best man can obtain the right for a woman to give him a child.
Because giving birth is a very harmful thing to the body, most women in this world are physically strong. Even during pregnancy and childbirth, most of them are stronger than men. After giving birth, they will try their best to take care of their bodies and recover quickly.
Of course, men’s bodies are not weak!
Women choose men with good health as their offspring so that the mother will suffer less during pregnancy. There are even many women who go to war or court while pregnant and are hardly affected.
The tadpoles are of good quality and will sit firmly on the tire.
Although women in the world today do not have the tools to detect the quality of men's tadpoles, generally speaking, men with good health have good quality tadpoles.
It’s not like in modern times, where bad habits like smoking, drinking, staying up late, etc. can turn a healthy tadpole into a half-dead one.
Men in this world pay the most attention to health preservation, so as to increase the chances of being chosen as a father.
Jing Han was stunned by these reasons and explanations.
I just shouted “Oh shit”!
[Also, while the woman is pregnant, the man should eat a lactation fruit containing estrogen. The man's breasts will gradually grow larger until the woman gives birth, and they can almost breastfeed the child!]
System 3657 once again made Jinghan's pupils tremble.
Good guy, just call him good guy!
Why does she feel that this world, from pregnancy to childbirth to parenting, seems to be more scientific?
When both parents are involved in raising children, isn’t this the most perfect and harmonious family that many people dream of?
There is also the lactogenic fruit, which contains a large amount of estrogen.
It sounds amazing!
"Tell me honestly, Tongzi, is this world actually a world of cultivation?"
[No, this is just an ordinary society where women are superior! ]
[What an ordinary word! I almost don’t recognize the word ordinary! ]
"Host, don't you think the modern world you've come from is a bit twisted? Women are expected to bear children and take care of the family, earn money, and save money... Most men only need to do one thing, and that's work! It's really strange! I've chosen to be a host and traveled to so many worlds before, but I've never seen a world as sick as yours! Women are extremely suppressed, but they're still expected to be capable and sacrifice everything!"
It can be heard that System 3657 hides a lot of doubts in its small body!
Jinghan felt ashamed from the bottom of his heart.
She was not ashamed of being a woman, but after listening to System 3657's words, she was ashamed of the world she had once lived.
But that was her world, and change didn't happen overnight.
Although she is no longer in that world, she sincerely hopes that the women of that world will one day be able to truly master the power they deserve, live a truly free life, and not be kidnapped by anyone or anything, or even forced to make sacrifices by advocating for the greatness of certain actions.
Not to mention how Jinghan and System 3657 felt.
On the other side, the imperial doctors couldn't stop shaking after Jing Han left.
With a plop, they fell to their knees at Jing Chengji's feet.
Knowing the great shame His Majesty had suffered, they knew they might not be able to leave the palace today.
They knew that Jing Chengji was a wise ruler, but the dignity of an emperor must not be compromised.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to die. Please spare the lives of our families. They know nothing!"
The head of the Imperial Hospital touched her belly, tears in her eyes, and knelt in front of Jing Chengji to beg.
Her youngest child may never have the chance to see the world again!
"Your Majesty, please forgive my family..."
Jing Chengji didn't say anything for a long time, but her expression was indistinct, and it was obvious that she was also having trouble making a decision.
This matter is of great importance, and even Song Yuezhen cannot influence Jing Chengji's thoughts.
The imperial doctors were sweating profusely, gradually soaking their clothes.
As time passed, their hearts became more and more desperate.
After a long time, Jing Chengji said slowly.
"If any of you guys get to tell anyone about Han'er, I will punish you severely. Also, nothing happened today, understand?"
The imperial doctors cried with joy that His Majesty actually spared them.
"Yes, Your Majesty. We will keep this in mind. Thank you for sparing my life!"
The imperial doctors' voices were choked with sobs, unable to control their emotions.
Yes, who wouldn’t be excited after escaping death?
Jing Chengji waved his hand, and the imperial doctors retreated quietly.
When the chief eunuch saw that Jing Chengji and Song Yue really seemed to have something to say in private, he also quietly went down with the palace maids.
"Yuezhen, have you also heard Han'er's thoughts?"
"Your Majesty, is that inexplicable thing good or bad? This..."
Jing Chengji made a gesture and Song Yuezhen stopped talking.
"Han'er lost her memory before, and she only remembered some things when she returned to the palace today. So far, that thing has not hindered Han'er, and it may even be of some use. Let's not talk about this for now, but you must not reveal Han'er's thoughts, in case thieves do anything bad to her!"
"Your Majesty, Han'er is my biological daughter. How could I not understand this? But Your Majesty, Han'er would never do anything treasonous. You know Han'er's character best. I am really worried!"
"If we didn't have that system, the current situation might be unfavorable to Han'er, but with it, that might not be the case! We'll wait and see tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Majesty. As for the man Han'er mentioned, do you have any rules?"
"Hmph, are you secretly cursing me in your heart?! Do you think my eyesight is blurry?!"
After Jing Chengji said this, the somewhat depressing atmosphere suddenly became a little relaxed.
Song Yuezhen chuckled, "Your Majesty, don't you know what's going on?"
Jing Chengji pretended to be angry.
"How dare you not remind me?"
Song Yuezhen just gave Jing Chengji a look that said, "You understand it yourself."
Jing Chengji was both amused and angry.
"Okay, I'll take care of it myself. Let's go to bed early today."
Song Yuezhen glared at Jing Chengji softly, a look that had no deterrent effect at all, then turned around and walked ahead.
Jing Chengji chuckled and followed Song Yuezhen happily.
The moon was quietly hiding behind the dark clouds, slightly reddish.
The night is still long.
