Chapter 1 Difficulty in Having Offspring
"How is it? Can she have children?"
A somewhat aged voice rang out, sounding very urgent.
Lying in bed with her eyes closed, Tianyao, who was pretending to be asleep, twitched her eyelids and found it very funny.
Her aunt, who was also her husband's mother, disregarded propriety and secretly brought people to her bedchamber. It turned out that she wanted to confirm whether she could have children.
She is a 21-year-old woman, in the prime of her youth, and a top-tier omega. If she can't have children, then who in the world can?
My aunt is worrying unnecessarily.
However, it's no wonder that her aunt was worried. After all, she and Yunzhou had been married for three years and had been intimate several times, but there was still no sign of pregnancy in her belly.
She previously thought it was good that she wasn't pregnant, since childbirth was a very dangerous thing in ancient times.
But now, she feels that having a child is fine, after all, she wants to be with Yunzhou for life.
Perhaps, it's time to let Yunzhou mark her for life.
Thinking of this, Tianyao couldn't help but smile. Just as she was about to open her eyes, she heard the doctor sigh heavily and say in a low voice.
"Madam Cui, the princess... the princess..."
The doctor hesitated, his words slurred and his face showing doubt.
"Oh dear, just tell me already! You're driving me crazy!"
Madam Cui was so anxious that her eyebrows were almost touching, and she urged him on.
A bad premonition welled up in Tianyao's heart. The doctor's hesitation usually meant a bad outcome; if the outcome were good, he would have said so directly. Could it be that she...
Tianyao pursed her lips, not daring to think any further.
The doctor gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, and, in a fit of desperation, said...
"The princess's womb is cold and stagnant, making it difficult for her to have children!"
"Buzz..."
As if a huge roar was ringing in Tianyao's ears, she instantly became deaf and couldn't hear anything the doctor and her aunt said afterward.
She closed her eyes, her mind filled with the doctor's words.
The princess's womb is cold and stagnant, making it difficult for her to have children!
The princess's womb is cold and stagnant, making it difficult for her to have children!
The princess's womb is cold and stagnant, making it difficult for her to have children!
...
That sentence echoed in her mind countless times. She was shocked, couldn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it, but perhaps, that sentence was the truth.
Otherwise, how could Yunzhou, a 21-year-old young woman, a top-tier Omega, and with a second gender being Alpha, be married for three years and have intercourse countless times, yet still not get pregnant?
It turns out that the reason she couldn't get pregnant was because she was infertile!
Tianyao lay on the bed with her eyes closed, two lines of clear tears flowing down from the corners of her eyes, into her hair, and finally into the pillow.
Her sadness, sorrow, pain, and grief were all silent.
After an unknown amount of time, Tianyao raised her hand, wiped away the tears on her face, opened her eyes, and looked around.
The room was empty; my aunt and the doctor had left sometime earlier.
She reached out, picked up the bell from the bedside table, and shook it.
"Ding-dong... ding-dong..."
The door was pushed open, and a maid in green entered. Standing in the outer hall, she bowed respectfully through the inner door and asked, "Princess, what are your orders?"
"Prepare bath water, I wish to take a bath."
"Also, summon the head guard."
Tianyao gave the order in a cold tone.
"yes."
The maid acknowledged and bowed before leaving.
Tianyao lifted the blanket and saw the red marks all over her body. Her eyes dimmed, her delicate lips tightened, and she exuded a low-pressure aura.
Aunt will definitely tell Yunzhou about her infertility. How will Yunzhou react after he finds out about her infertility?
Just as she hoped, they would never abandon her, stand firmly by her side, and protect her.
Or, for the sake of their offspring and the Cui family, should they divorce?
To be honest, she couldn't guess the answer.
"Princess, the bathwater is ready."
Several maids carried a steaming wooden bath tub and stood in the outer hall to report.
Upon hearing this, Tianyao quickly got out of bed, grabbed a pure white robe from the wooden clothes rack, put it on, and gave the order to the outside.
"Bring it in."
The voice was cold and devoid of warmth.
Just as Tianyao finished speaking, the voice of the head guard rang out from outside the hall.
"Your Highness, Chen Feng requests an audience."
The voice was strong and clear.
"You, go outside and convey my order: Chen Feng and all the guards who protected me outside the palace today are punished by kneeling for three days for failing to protect me, and are also dismissed from their posts as guards of me."
Tianyao's face was cold and stern. She raised her hand, pointed at one of the maids, and gave the order.
The maid was taken aback at first, then bowed respectfully, her voice trembling, "Yes, Your Highness."
After the other maids left, Tianyao untied her robes, stepped into the wooden tub, and began to bathe.
Ugh, so tiring, living is so tiring.
The weariness of the past life is now etched on the body.
But the weariness of this life is in my heart.
Because she has a secret that she cannot let anyone know, otherwise she will risk losing her head.
The secret is that she was not a princess of the Wei Kingdom.
The mother's biological daughter was stillborn. In order to avoid punishment from the late emperor, the mother adopted her into the palace and claimed that she was the mother's biological daughter. Meanwhile, the mother's biological daughter was secretly disposed of.
At that time, although her body was that of an infant who could only babble, her soul was that of an adult. Therefore, she could understand what her mother and the people in her palace were saying. Her mother and the people in her palace never avoided talking to her, because to her mother and the palace servants, she was just a little baby who knew nothing.
For 21 years, from childhood to now, she has always been worried that her secret will be discovered.
Fortunately, her secret has remained undiscovered to this day.
Compared to this earth-shattering secret that could cost you your head, infertility is really just a small matter.
Thinking of this, Tianyao let out a long breath, stood up, dried herself with a towel, put on her inner clothes, and called out, "Come in, everyone, help me with my makeup."
Standing in the outer hall, the maids who had been waiting bowed their heads and carried wooden trays filled with clothes and jewelry into the inner room.
Another group of maids came in, moved the bath tub away, and cleaned the floor.
About an incense stick later, Tianyao looked at herself in the mirror, dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing expensive and elaborate jewelry. She curled her lips and revealed a smile of relief and satisfaction.
Fortunately, she now has money and power, and she has not made a lifelong commitment to Yunzhou. Even if she gets married but cannot have children, the worst outcome is that she will divorce Yunzhou. After the divorce, she can still live a wonderful life.
After thinking it over, Tianyao stood up, her beautiful eyes no longer clouded, and she walked out of the main hall with light steps.
Outside the main hall, a group of guards knelt, led by Chen Feng, the head guard of the princess's residence.
While she was bathing and dressing, she did not hear the slightest disturbance outside the palace. This means that Chen Feng and the other guards accepted her punishment order without any objection.
That's ridiculous. So, they knowingly committed the crime?
