"Mother, this is the gentleman. He said he can help my Meng family continue its lineage," Meng Xinghe said, taking the noblewoman's hand as he went to greet her.
If Li Chang'an hadn't been able to see them, just by listening to their voices, he would have really thought it was a mother and daughter talking.
"Quickly, please invite the gentleman into the mansion! Quickly, please invite him into the mansion!" The noblewoman ordered the servants to open the gate and invite Li Chang'an inside.
The Prince's Mansion was very large.
The distance from the front door to the living room is longer than the distance from the inn to the palace.
The road wound its way through pavilions, towers, rockeries, and lotus ponds. After passing through countless archways, we finally arrived at the main hall.
Xiong Er and his group were dumbfounded. The hall alone covered several acres, and it was decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, making it magnificent and resplendent. They were hesitant to go inside.
Li Chang'an noticed their fear and said to Meng Xingyun, "My men haven't had a chance to eat yet. Please, Your Highness, arrange for them to go and have a meal first."
Perhaps because of the reward, Li Chang'an spoke much more politely.
Meng Xingyun was pleased and, with a wave of his hand, arranged for people to take them away.
Meng He stood at the door with Guo Pangzi and the coachman and a few others as his escorts, while the others followed him into the hall and sat down.
The noblewoman sat at the main table, ordered the servants to bring tea and refreshments, and said, "I wonder if you, sir, have any ideas that might broaden my horizons?"
Li Chang'an tried a piece of pastry; it was too sweet and cloying, and he didn't really like it.
“It’s not some magical method.” Li Chang’an took out the birth pills from his pocket and said, “It’s just two pills, one male and one female, so we still need a woman to cooperate with Your Highness.”
The princess looked at the fertility pills in front of her and said, "Of course. I have already sent the Crown Princess over. Please begin, sir."
A beautiful young woman entered through the door, dressed in a flowing, wide-sleeved dress, adorned with jewels and pearls, with a cool and aloof demeanor.
"Xiuer greets her mother, her husband, and all the gentlemen."
The young woman bowed to everyone, walked to Meng Xingyun's side and sat down. Seeing that her husband was a little nervous, she reached out and took his hand, patting the back of his hand.
Li Chang'an didn't waste any time; he took the fertility pills and made the two of them take them.
After a while, there was still no reaction.
The princess's face grew increasingly gloomy; this was probably yet another charlatan trying to swindle the royal household.
Guo Pangzi sat on the ground, his face pale. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hahaha, you stinking scholar, you're a fraud. You don't have any magic pills or elixirs, hahaha."
You bastard, you scared this young master half to death, but you turned out to be a liar.
He thought to himself, "Now you've completely offended the Meng family. I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the Prince's mansion."
Thinking of this, he felt a little smug and looked at Li Chang'an as if he were looking at a dead man.
Meng Xingyun felt that her joy had been in vain. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt a sharp pain.
"Ouch~ It hurts so much, ah, it hurts so much."
He clutched his legs, knelt on the ground and rolled around, feeling a burning sensation below his stomach, as if he were on fire.
"My son, you..."
Seeing her son like this, the princess was furious and slammed her hand on the table, shattering it into pieces.
Pointing his finger at Li Chang'an, trembling uncontrollably, he was both angry and annoyed, and shouted, "Guards, seize these swindlers!"
The soldiers drew their knives with a whoosh, ready to seize the man.
Wang Zhongxian stood up, shielding Zhang Jiadi and Li Chang'an behind him, and looked at the princess warily with a tense expression.
Before they could even make a move, Meng Xingyun's voice grew louder and louder, transforming from a effeminate tone to a deeper, more resonant one.
"Wait, wait, Mother, look!"
Xiuer covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.
The princess followed her gaze and saw that Meng Xingyun's robe had been lifted up.
"This...this..." The princess rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and tears streamed down her face.
"My son, my son, my son is pregnant, my son is pregnant!"
The soldiers stopped in their tracks and looked at the crown prince.
The prince slowly stopped roaring and stood up. His eyes were bloodshot, and his robes looked different from usual.
Looking at the extra things, Meng Xingyun felt like she was dreaming.
God knows how he spent the past twenty years.
Everyone else envied him for being the heir of Lingnan, but only he knew the bitterness in his heart.
Because he didn't have any, even when others called him "Crown Prince," he felt that they were looking down on him.
Now that he finally had the chance, he couldn't help but say, "Sir, your kindness and virtue are unforgettable. Please accept my bow."
Meng Xingyun knelt down with a thud, his voice strong and powerful, exuding an extraordinary aura.
The princess was already in tears, covering her mouth and sobbing softly.
Li Chang'an helped Meng Xingyun up and said, "Your Highness, please go while the medicine is still effective, otherwise I don't know what will happen after the effects wear off."
Upon hearing this, Meng Xingyun didn't hesitate. He picked up the Crown Princess, apologized, and headed towards the backyard.
Before leaving, he glanced at Fatty Guo with disdain and ordered, "Meng He, drag this fatso away and beat him to death with sticks, so as not to dirty the master's hands."
"Spare me! Spare me, Your Highness! Spare me!" Fatty Guo, his face pale, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
Meng Xingyun ignored him and carried the Crown Princess into the backyard.
The princess looked at Guo Pangzi, who was kneeling on the ground, with some doubt.
Seeing that she was unaware of what had happened, Meng He went over and whispered the whole story to her.
