The system blinked, "Host, do you have any other instructions?"
"You just leave like this. Do you know which kinds of fertility pills I need?" Li Xia asked back.
"I forgot." The system asked, "Host, tell me what fertility pills you need."
"Needless to say, I'll buy two for now. I'll also need a Dragon and Phoenix Pill, and finally a Twin Pill. Order these first."
Li Xia opened her lips and replied.
The system nodded, "Okay, host, I understand. Do you have anything else to say?"
"I have a question. It's about the Dragon and Phoenix Pill. After I take it, can you switch between identical and fraternal eggs?" Li Xia asked.
The storybook she was reading told a story about the royal family.
The male and female protagonists in the story are the emperor and his concubine.
At the beginning, the relationship between the two was going quite smoothly, a bit like getting married first and falling in love later.
The emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem, and most of them are brought into the palace to check and balance the powerful families. It is written that the emperor has desire for them but no love for them.
Until the heroine appeared, the emperor's love began to be uneven, and the favored concubine soon became pregnant.
The concubine's belly was particularly big during pregnancy. In the story, the imperial doctors in the palace were ignorant and had never seen a woman pregnant with twins, so they did not diagnose that she was pregnant with twins. They just said that the concubine's diet was more nutritious, so the fetuses in her belly would grow well.
Later, the concubine gave birth to a pair of princes, twins who looked exactly the same.
The emperor originally planned that if the concubine gave birth to a prince, he would make him the crown prince.
However, he did not expect that the prince was indeed a prince, but not just one, but a pair, identical twins, which was a big taboo in the royal family.
Just imagine if one of them becomes the king of a country in the future.
The other had a face exactly like the emperor's.
This is considered an ominous sign in the world of the storybook.
Li Xia didn’t quite understand whether the world she lived in was the same as the one in the storybook and had the same taboos?
But she did hear some sound.
Twins are rarely born in the royal family.
Li Xia's mission is to prolong her life by giving birth to a baby, although she does not feel the pain of delivery because of the pain-relieving pills.
But if she had to give birth one by one, she would have to have several babies.
By taking pills and choosing twins, you can save yourself a lot of trouble.
Li Xia thought about it and decided to choose the Dragon and Phoenix Pills this time, so that she would give birth to a boy and a girl.
As long as the system can make them fraternal twins.
The problem shouldn't be that big.
"Host, why do you suddenly ask this?" the system asked puzzledly.
"System, answer my question first."
Li Xia said.
The system scratched its head and said, "I haven't tried it either, but if the host asks, I can give it a try."
It doesn't dare to say it too affirmatively.
"Okay, I understand. You can go find the headquarters." After hearing the system's answer, Li Xia said nothing more.
The system is also uncertain now.
Then we can only try it when the time comes.
"Oh, OK, then I will go buy the pills. I will first explain to the host the points needed." The system said: "Two painless pills are 200 points, one twin pill is 150 points, and one dragon and phoenix pill is 200 points, a total of 550 points."
"Um."
Li Xia nodded.
After a while.
[550 points are deducted, and the remaining total points are 600. ]
The mechanical sound of the system rang in Li Xia's mind.
The points were deducted successfully, which means all the pills have been purchased.
"Empress Dowager, the water is coming."
Coincidentally, at this time, Fuling had also prepared the water that Li Xia needed for bathing.
"Okay, put the water down and you can go out. Your Majesty, I'll be here." Fuling instructed the two young palace maids.
"yes."
The young palace maids were all newcomers who had just entered the palace and were palace maids who did menial tasks. They were different from Fuling and Yuzhu, who were first-class palace maids who served the nobles closely.
The young palace maids followed Fuling's instructions, poured the water in the wooden barrel into the bathtub, and then respectfully withdrew.
Fuling bowed and walked to Li Xia's side, "My lady, I will help you change your clothes."
"Fuling, I can do it myself. I see that you don't look well. Didn't you get enough rest yesterday? Don't be on duty today. Let Yuzhu take your place. Go back and have a good rest."
Li Xia looked at the obvious dark circles under Fuling's eyelids and spoke.
She usually does things like bathing and changing clothes by herself.
Li Xia was not used to having someone help her bathe.
"Empress Dowager, this servant of yours ..."
"Fuling, be obedient."
As soon as Fuling opened her mouth, Li Xia interrupted her.
"Yes, I will listen to what your Majesty says." Fuling replied with her head down.
She didn't want to make the queen worry.
———
General's Mansion.
Ever since Chen Yi heard the truth about Li Xia entering the palace from others.
When he learned that she was married to an old emperor whose half body was buried in the ground by his parents, he felt ashamed of having parents like Chen and Chen Dexuan.
Chen Yi did not lock himself in the room anymore.
However, after he came out of the house, he never spoke another word to them.
Chen Dexuan saw that Chen Yi was adamant and refused to listen to his advice.
He didn't even spend the night in the general's mansion and left immediately.
Chen felt very upset when she saw that her own son treated her as a stranger.
She spoke to Chen Yi humbly: "Yier, I already know I was wrong, can you forgive me just once?"
