The young eunuch brought a chair and placed it next to Shen Chuwei, then bowed and stepped back.

Shen Chuwei sat down as he was told.

The Queen ordered again: "Physician Wang, check Shen Liangdi's pulse."

Shen Chuwei raised her eyes and saw Imperial Physician Wang walking out from the side. It turned out that everything was prepared. The Queen was really eager to have a grandchild.

She took the initiative to stretch out her wrist and pull up her sleeve.

Imperial Physician Wang took out a handkerchief and placed it on Shen Chuwei's wrist, then he placed two fingers on the pulse and began to take the pulse.

The queen held the teacup and drank slowly, glancing at Shen Chuwei. She looked well-behaved, pretty, and had a likable personality. Most importantly, she was also a great cook, so it was no wonder that the prince liked her.

She, a woman, likes this one.

I haven’t gotten pregnant in a year. Is there really something wrong with my body?

It would be a pity if you can't have children.

Otherwise, if you give birth to a daughter, she will definitely be very popular.

The Queen sighed and continued drinking her tea.

Imperial Physician Wang withdrew his hand and the handkerchief at the same time.

Shen Chuwei withdrew his hand and put down his sleeves.

The queen raised her eyes and glanced at the royal doctor, "How is it?"

Imperial Physician Wang lowered his brows and nodded: "Replying to the Queen, Shen Liangdi has a cold body and weak qi, so it is not easy for her to get pregnant."

The Queen paused while drinking her tea and looked at Shen Chuwei with her beautiful eyes, "Royal Doctor, are you sure it won't be easy for Shen Liangdi to get pregnant?"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shen Liang is weak and has insufficient energy and blood. It is very difficult for her to get pregnant." said Imperial Physician Wang.

Upon hearing this, the queen put down her teacup and looked at Shen Chuwei. No wonder she hadn't been pregnant for a long time. It turned out that she was weak and it was not easy for her to get pregnant.

The Queen withdrew her gaze and ordered, "Then prescribe some prescriptions for Shen Liang Di to treat her condition and see if it can be remedied."

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shen is too weak and will need a long time to recuperate. I cannot guarantee whether she can get pregnant." said the Imperial Physician Wang.

"I'll prescribe some medicine for conditioning first." The queen looked at Shen Chuwei again, feeling a little regretful for having such good genes.

"As you command." Imperial Physician Wang wrote the prescription.

Shen Chuwei glanced at Doctor Wang in confusion. It was true that she had a cold body and was also weak. These were all caused by the illnesses that had accumulated over the years from the original owner.

But I have been taking medicine on my own for the past six months and my condition has improved a lot and it will not affect my pregnancy.

Why did Wang Yuyi exaggerate? Or was it that ancient medicine was not well developed and believed that such physical weakness and coldness would affect women's pregnancy? After all, the treatment of diseases in ancient times is completely different from that in modern times.

After Imperial Physician Wang wrote the prescription, he left with his medicine box.

The queen comforted him, "You are still young, don't worry about it, just take care of yourself first."

Eunuch Ren came in and reported, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."

Shen Chu turned his head slightly to look at the entrance of the palace, and saw Xiao Jinyan striding in wearing a dark court robe. He had a slender figure, and the dark court robe made him look calm and dignified.

She was stunned for a moment, then stood up and bowed, "Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei and stepped forward to greet her: "Your son greets the Queen Mother."

The queen raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jinyan who was standing in the center of the hall. She saw that he was wearing court robes and should have come from the imperial study.

"Why is the prince here?"

Xiao Jinyan lowered his brows and nodded: "I passed by Fengyi Palace, so I thought of coming to pay my respects to my mother."

The queen nodded and said, "It's amazing that you are so filial. You came at the right time. I just have something to discuss with you."

Xiao Jinyan: "Please speak, mother. I am all ears."

The queen looked at Shen Chuwei and said, "Shen Liangdi, please step back first."

After saying this, he slowly walked out.

After the Queen saw Shen Chuwei leave, she slowly spoke: "Shen Liangdi has not been pregnant for a long time, so I asked the imperial physician to check her pulse and found that she is weak and it is not easy for her to get pregnant."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes paused when he heard this. He didn't expect to hear these words.

He knew better than anyone what it meant if a woman in the palace was unable to get pregnant.

He said, "Mother, Shen Liangdi is still young. Even if she is weak, she can be cured by some recuperation. There is no need to rush."

When the Queen heard this, she knew that Xiao Jinyan was protecting Shen Chuwei, which also showed that Xiao Jinyan really liked Shen Chuwei. She always thought that for the position of Crown Prince, Xiao Jinyan would not care about anyone and would not let anyone become a stumbling block.

"Prince, you are the future crown prince, but you have no children now. Do you know what this means?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "Mother, I am only twenty years old and I am not in a hurry to have a child."

The Queen's eyes darkened. "Prince, when your father was your age, he already had four sons. You should know the importance of having a future crown prince."

Xiao Jinyan pursed his lips. He certainly knew the importance of offspring. It would affect his position as the crown prince and would also be a reason for impeachment by others.

"Mother, please give me some time."

The Queen said coldly, "Prince, you have been married for a year, and in this year, you don't even have a child. Aren't you afraid that the ministers in the court will suspect you?"

"Mother..."

Before Xiao Jin could finish her words, she was interrupted by the Queen, "Not only do I think you should treat everyone equally, the Emperor also thinks so. You favor Shen Liangdi so much, but you should also consider your offspring. You should decide for yourself which is more important."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded, "Your son understands."

The queen waved her hand and said, "Go away."

"Your son will take his leave." Xiao Jinyan slowly walked out.

After Xiao Jinyan left, the Queen ordered, "Call Prince Yu over."

"Yes." Eunuch Ren turned and went out.

Shen Chuwei stood in the corridor, admiring the peonies in the yard while waiting for Xiao Jinyan.

After waiting for a while, she saw Xiao Jinyan coming out of the hall and she happily went to greet him.

"Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan stopped and looked at Shen Chuwei jogging towards him. He wondered if she knew that it was not easy for him to get pregnant.

If you knew, wouldn’t you be very sad?

When the others came closer, he said, "Let's go back first."

Shen Chuwei nodded, "Okay."

* Xiao Jinyu followed Eunuch Ren to Fengyi Palace. When he saw the Queen, he stepped forward to greet her enthusiastically: "Your son greets you, Queen Mother."

The queen waved to her son and said, "Come here quickly, let me see if you have gained weight or lost weight these days."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyu took a few steps forward, sat down beside the Queen, and rolled up his sleeves to show her his arms. He said proudly, "Mother, please take a good look. I have been practicing martial arts recently and have gained muscles."

"Really? Let me take a look." The queen stared at her son's arms and found that he really had muscles. "Indeed, it's good to practice martial arts. It helps to strengthen your body."

Xiao Jinyu was quite proud: "It is not enough to just keep fit. I want to be like my brother the Crown Prince, both civil and military."

The Queen said, "Why are you so tired? You have guards to protect you when you go out, and you can just practice to strengthen your body."

"Your son will listen to you, mother." Xiao Jinyu agreed on the surface, but in his heart he had made up his mind to practice hard.

The Queen did not forget her business: "Yu'er, yesterday your father mentioned that you should take a concubine. You are seventeen this year, it is time to take a concubine."
