Fang Zhaoyi gazed longingly at the tiny baby in the swaddling clothes. The baby's little mouth was pouting, its little hands were clenching, and its little feet were kicking. It was so cute!
What a blissful feeling it is to hold such a tiny, cuddly baby close to your chest and enjoy intimate contact with it.
The more Consort Fang thought about it, the more her heart trembled. She even looked at Chu Yuan's chest in confusion, wondering why the Imperial Concubine didn't breastfeed the child herself.
Isn't she afraid that her child will grow up to be closer to the wet nurse?
Chu Yuan didn't have such worries at all.
Even if she had the idea, she couldn't have come up with such a foolish idea as giving Fang Zhaoyi lactose.
Consort Fang was a pitiful woman; she lost her will to live at a very young age.
She seems less interested in men than in children, so why not grant her wish to become a mother?
As long as she genuinely loves the child, that's fine.
Thinking this, Chu Yuan took out the lactation candy. "Sister Fang, this is a lactation pill. The imperial physician prescribed it for me. It will increase my milk supply after I take it."
I asked around, and they said it would be effective even for women who haven't given birth. Would you like to... give it a try?
I didn't mean anything by it, I just noticed you were staring at the wet nurse with such envy.
I've heard some of what happened to you before. If you don't mind, those three can be your godsons..."
With each sentence Chu Yuan spoke, Consort Fang's eyes widened in disbelief, until they were as big as copper bells, and she stammered, "I...Your Majesty, you...you really want me to be the godmother of the little princes?"
Chu Yuan smiled and exchanged a glance with Consort Wan. "Why wouldn't I want another person to love my child? Unless Sister Fang doesn't truly want to be good to the child..."
"No, no, no, I mean it. I absolutely want what's best for the child!"
Before Chu Yuan could finish speaking, Consort Fang interrupted her hastily, her eyes moist as she looked at the children.
"I am not as fortunate as Your Majesty to have given birth to three such adorable little ones, but if Your Majesty is truly willing to give me the opportunity to be close to the three little princes, I will definitely treat them as my own sons!"
As he spoke, his hand was already in a vow gesture, "If I break this vow, may I not have a peaceful death, and may my child in the afterlife not be able to be reincarnated smoothly. Now, Your Majesty, will you believe me?"
Chu Yuan handed over the lactose in her hand, "Sister Fang, have some."
However, Consort Fang was too thin and had a flat chest, so even after consuming lactose, she could not produce milk.
She was extremely frustrated. "Could it be that this medicine isn't working for me?"
Chu Yuan shook her head, "No, Sister Fang, I've tried it myself and it's very effective, it's just that you're too weak."
"Why don't you go back and eat more good food, get better, and then come back to feed the little prince, okay?"
Fang Zhaoyi kissed the child's face reluctantly, "Okay, I know what to do."
She will go back and eat and take her medicine properly. She needs to not only get her body back in good shape, but also ensure her health so that she can breastfeed her child. She absolutely cannot let her child suffer even the slightest bit of grievance!
Chu Yuan nodded, packed some supplements for her to take back, and even added a recovery pill.
Ba Ba clicked his tongue in astonishment: [Host, why are you doing this? Although a Recovery Pill is only worth 100 points, it's still money you earned through hard work. What are you trying to gain by giving it to a woman you've never even met?]
Chu Yuan said, "I didn't ask for anything; I just felt sorry for them."
She had lost a child and knew that kind of pain, so she couldn't hold back for a moment.
In the evening, Emperor Xian of Wei came to Baohua Palace again. As soon as he entered, he asked, "Where is the child?"
