Chapter 229 Not Strong Enough
Pei Jing was leaning against the window when he heard Jiang Fei's voice coming from the room.
"Doctor, to be honest, I'm looking forward to having a child, but I haven't been able to conceive. Is it because of my cold uterus?"
The doctor responded gently, "Don't worry, my dear. A cold uterus can indeed affect conception, but it's not certain. I see your pulse is calm, so it shouldn't affect pregnancy."
"Then...could it be because of the man?"
Pei Jing's heart trembled. He thought to himself that he was in good health and had never suffered any loss. Was she doubting his ability?!
The doctor pondered for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "Your Excellency's words make sense. Fertility is a matter for both parties. If the prince were here, we might as well take a look together."
"But if I tell him directly, will it affect his dignity as a man?" Jiang Fei asked.
Pei Jing gritted his teeth outside the window.
What you just said has already severely trampled on my dignity! Isn't it too late to ask now?!
The doctor said, "Your Excellency is truly thoughtful. Don't worry, I know what I am doing. When I examined the prince's pulse, I only prescribed ordinary treatment and never mentioned what happened today."
After a while, Jiutao came out and invited Pei Jing in.
Pei Jing strode into the room, flicked his robe and sat down next to Jiang Fei, staring at the doctor with a serious look, which made the doctor shrink his neck.
"Your Highness," the doctor swallowed and said, "I have just finished examining the pulse of the noble, and I am so bold as to take your pulse as well."
Pei Jing glanced at him sideways, "You are a gynecologist, why are you checking my pulse?"
The doctor smiled apologetically and said, "Your Highness, you are joking. Medicine has the same origin. Although gynecology and men's medicine have different focuses, they are also connected. The principles of qi and blood, and the harmony of yin and yang are the same. I also understand a little bit."
Pei Jing sneered in his heart.
Jiang Fei had just suspected that he wasn't good in that area, and now she was trying all sorts of ways to test him. He was strong and healthy, so how could there be any problem? But if she refused, it would make her look guilty, confirming her suspicions.
Jiang Fei raised her chin and motioned him to stretch out his hand.
Pei Jing snorted coldly and placed his wrist on the pulse pillow. "I want to see what you can diagnose."
The doctor hurriedly took the patient's pulse. He looked calm at first, but after a moment he slowly frowned.
Pei Jingyuan still had a bit of disdain in his eyes, but his heart suddenly sank when he saw this.
Could it be... Could it be...
A trace of panic crept into his heart. He subconsciously straightened his back, but pursed his lips tightly.
Jiang Fei sat up slightly, and seeing Pei Jing pursed his lips, she leaned over and patted his back gently to comfort him.
"It's okay, it's okay. Even if there is something, it's not a big deal. What I value most is you as a person, not these things."
Although these were words of comfort, the more Pei Jing listened, the more upset he felt.
Seeing that comforting him was no help, Jiang Fei continued, "As a man, it's inevitable that you will feel powerless. Don't force yourself. I will definitely not laugh at you. This matter is only known to you, me, and the doctor. No fourth person will know."
Pei Jing's fists clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. "Shut up."
"good."
Jiang Fei looked at the doctor after she finished speaking, "Doctor, what's going on?"
The doctor withdrew his hand and said, "Your Highness is as vigorous as a dragon and a tiger, his pulse is strong, and his body is unusually strong."
Pei Jing breathed a sigh of relief. "Then why were you frowning just now?"
He was so scared that he thought he really couldn't do it.
That's right, how could there be any problem with my body since it's in such good health? It's obviously Xiao Cui who is looking for trouble and feels that she is not strong enough.
The doctor continued, "But the prince seems to have some pent-up energy inside him, like a fully drawn bowstring that is always stretched. After a long time, it will inevitably lose its elasticity."
Jiang Fei and Pei Jing didn't understand and asked in unison: "What do you mean?"
"It's like a dam storing water. If you keep holding it back, it's more likely to burst." The doctor became more blunt as he spoke: "Male and female relationships are natural. They should be released when they should be released."
The two of them understood a little, but still didn't understand completely.
"Speak human language!" Pei Jing said coldly.
The doctor had no choice but to risk his pride and said bluntly, "What I mean is that the prince has too much energy and nowhere to use it. If he keeps holding it in, he'll get sick. He can indulge himself a little, or take in a few concubines."
Now both of them understood.
Jiang Fei was stunned for a moment, and her voice suddenly rose, "What did you say?! Take a concubine!"
Pei Jing was being repressed? He was already quite indulgent! If he let her go even more, she would have to give her life to him.
Pei Jing quickly turned around and held her down, patting her back to comfort her. He said to the doctor in a deep voice, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
The doctor shuddered with fear. "Yes, yes, you can also not take a concubine. It all depends on the prince's wishes."
"Doctor," Jiang Fei asked through gritted teeth, "If he doesn't take a concubine, is there any medicine that can make him, uh, less vigorous?"
Pei Jing suddenly turned around and glared at her, his eyes seemed to be burning with fire.
The doctor was also stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have only seen people seeking to replenish qi and blood, and strengthen bones and muscles, but I have never seen anyone looking for this kind of medicine. To be honest, it is better to release than to block. Forcing it to hold it in will only hurt your body and do no good."
Until the doctor left, the two of them were thinking about their own things and no one spoke first.
Outside the window, the sun gradually sets in the west, shining in through the window frame, casting long shadows on the blue bricks, and prolonging the silence in the room.
"Don't worry, I will never take a concubine." Pei Jing saw her frown and comforted her, "Besides, you are so jealous, how dare I take a concubine?"
Jiang Fei glanced at him sideways, "You don't dare?"
Pei Jing: "No."
Jiang Fei fell back on the bed and sighed. How would she live in the future? It was absolutely impossible for her to take a concubine for Pei Jing.
Pei Jing seemed to be trapped in a world of ice and fire.
When he thought about Xiao Cui wanting to give birth to a child for him, he felt like he was floating in the clouds. But when he thought about how Xiao Cui felt that he was not strong enough, he felt like he had fallen into an ice cave.
It seems that she didn't have enough fun either.
Forget it, when she gets better, I have to let her know that I am definitely not "not strong enough"!
