Chapter 973: Men, don’t spoil them like this
Concubine Yu cried and cursed King Cheng'en in her heart.
You are obviously not stupid, so why are you blind?
How could he not have the slightest sympathy for such a beautiful woman as himself, without seeing that she was crying in front of him?
You know, I have practiced this crying posture in front of the bronze mirror countless times, and it is really pitiful.
"Humph! You cry so beautifully, but it's obvious you're not really crying!" Princess Linghua said venomously, "If you were really scared, would you still remember to act so pretentiously?"
Concubine Yu’s crying stopped.
Should she be happy that someone finally noticed that she looked pretty when she cried?
Prince Cheng'en glanced at Concubine Yu and said in confusion, "My daughter, is this beautiful? Why does Dad think it's so ugly? It's simply unbearable to look at!"
King Cheng'en's brows were almost twisted into knots.
He felt that his daughter's eyesight might not be very good.
Concubine Yu: "..."
It felt like an arrow was stabbed in the heart.
I want to cry again.
Why was she so foolish at the beginning, using all her tricks to get into the palace?
When Concubine Liu saw Concubine Yu's frustrated look, she felt a little sympathetic towards her.
The vision of our prince is indeed a little different from that of ordinary people.
It was in vain that Concubine Yu used all kinds of tricks to try to make the prince favor her alone.
After all, it was just a means to an end, and it was a waste of time.
"Alright, alright, stop crying here." King Cheng'en waved his hand impatiently and said, "I hate it most when people cry in front of me. Go back and copy the Diamond Sutra a hundred times and offer it to the Buddha. You are not allowed to leave until you have finished copying it!"
Concubine Yu: "..."
I can't even cry anymore!
A hundred times? How long would it take to copy it?
Concubine Yu looked at Concubine Liu as if asking for help.
However, Concubine Liu changed her usual lenient attitude and said coldly, "No one is allowed to spread the news of what happened today! If there is even a whisper of rumors spreading rumors about the princess and damaging her reputation, I will investigate thoroughly. If I can find the perpetrator, I will punish them severely!"
After saying this, his sharp eyes swept across the faces of the concubines.
Finally, it fell on Concubine Yu's face again.
The voice was cold as she continued, "Also, if the prescriptions written by the young genius doctor contain the information about the Golden Jade Leaf, and someone deliberately spreads it, causing trouble for the young genius doctor, then don't blame me, the concubine, for being ruthless and uncaring, regardless of our past friendship!"
Concubine Yu shuddered with fear.
She didn't expect that Concubine Liu would actually tell her everything she was going to do!
That’s right! She really wanted to spread the news that Princess Linghua had meddled in the affairs of her elders’ rooms.
Who made Princess Linghua want to block her path to becoming a princess?
As for the Golden Jade Leaf——
One of her younger sisters married into the Zheng family as a concubine.
So, she also heard that the Zheng family was searching everywhere for the Golden Jade Leaf.
She had originally thought of using this as a favor to the Zheng family...
Concubine Yu suddenly found that Concubine Liu was a little scary.
Tang Bao glanced at Concubine Liu and couldn't help but sigh——
No wonder Princess Linghua only recognized Concubine Liu as the mistress of the palace.
Indeed, he is thoughtful and considerate.
Now the plot seems a bit like a script of a palace feud.
Prince Cheng'en slammed the table and shouted, "Have you all remembered Concubine Liu's words? If anyone dares to violate this, I will not only punish you, but I will also go to your mother's house to question you. If you think your parents can withstand my wrath, then give it a try!"
At King Cheng'en's words, all the concubines knelt down in unison and said in unison, "We dare not."
It has to be said that King Cheng'en's harsh words were quite intimidating.
Even if someone had some ulterior motives, they would be scared away now.
Soon, all the concubines retreated.
Concubine Liu looked at Tang Bao with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, little doctor."
Tang Bao shook her head.
She is just a little girl, so naturally she would not interfere in other people's family affairs.
"Your Highness, please sit down." Tang Bao said, "I will take your pulse."
King Cheng'en waved his hand and said confidently, "Thank you, little doctor. I'm in good health."
Tang Bao: “…”
Where does your confidence come from?
So many women can't get pregnant, do you think it's women's problem?
Concubine Liu glanced at Tang Bao, and before Tang Bao could point out that there must be something wrong with Prince Cheng'en's health, she quickly said, "Your Highness, you are in good health. You can also ask the little doctor to check your pulse."
"Besides, I've heard that before a woman gets pregnant, if both the man and the woman take care of their bodies together, the child they give birth to will be smarter and stronger."
When Prince Cheng'en heard Concubine Liu say this, he sat down opposite Tang Bao without hesitation and placed his wrist on the pulse pillow.
In order for his son to be smart and strong, he was happy to let him drink bitter medicine all day long.
"Thank you for your help, little doctor!" said King Cheng'en.
Tang Bao didn't say anything, but glanced at Concubine Liu.
Sure enough, this concubine is not simple.
Not only is he smart, but he also protects the reputation of King Cheng'en.
Tang Bao naturally knew that people in this era blamed women for the problem of not being able to have children.
If a woman cannot give birth to a child, it is definitely the woman's problem and has nothing to do with the man.
Even if she had some guesses in her mind, she would not say them out loud in order to protect the man's face.
Tang Bao naturally won't indulge this kind of bad habit.
As a doctor, she chooses to tell the truth.
So, Tang Bao took King Cheng'en's pulse and directly prescribed a long prescription.
"The prince has a more serious health problem, even more serious than the concubine, so it is difficult for him to have children. He needs to be well taken care of. Otherwise, he will never have children again in his lifetime."
"How is that possible?!"
King Cheng'en cried out in disbelief.
There's no way he can't do it!
"I have seen so many doctors, and they all said that I am in good health and it will not affect my offspring!" King Cheng'en shouted with his eyes wide open.
Concubine Liu looked at Prince Cheng'en, then at Tang Bao, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Did they prescribe medicine for the prince, saying it was a tonic?" Tang Bao asked calmly.
King Cheng’en: “…Yes.”
I kind of understand.
It seems that those doctors didn't dare to tell the truth.
King Cheng'en felt that his dignity as a man had suffered a serious blow.
He couldn't help but reveal an expression of grief.
It turns out that it was all his fault.
When Concubine Liu saw Prince Cheng'en's expression, she couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Your Highness must have been overly concerned about my health over the past few years, as well as the hardships the princess endured at Tianlong Temple, which has affected his health." Concubine Liu said, "Now that the princess has returned, and I have the young doctor to nurse me back to health, Your Highness will surely recover quickly even without medication."
Concubine Liu said this very tactfully, but fearing that Prince Cheng'en really wouldn't take the medicine, she quickly added a few more words.
"Of course. For the sake of the prince's children's intelligence, His Majesty must follow the doctor's orders and take the medicine."
When Prince Cheng'en heard Concubine Liu say this, he felt like he had picked up a little face from the ground.
"That's true." King Cheng'en said in agreement.
Tang Bao looked at Concubine Liu with admiration.
This is the best way to coax a man.
But, Tang Bao really wants to say one thing——
Men, don’t spoil them like this!
