Chapter 122 The Emperor Treats You Differently from Others
"You didn't sleep well either?"
The graceful Princess Huachang leaned on the beauty couch, resting her head on her hand and asked.
Ji Qingwu sat obediently on the other side with a smile on his face.
She tried to cover up the truth by explaining, "I came back from the horseback archery competition yesterday, and only then did I feel the pain in my waist and legs when I lay in bed, so I didn't sleep well."
After spending some time with her, Princess Huachang realized that she was gentle and not strong enough, and that she was easy to be bullied, so she gave her some advice.
"You don't have to pay too much attention to Concubine Wei's words and deeds. She has always been tactful. No one who can sit in this position is a fool. But she is not a bad person by nature. She was just a little provoked yesterday. You don't have to take her jealous words to heart."
Are Concubine Wei saying something jealous? Ji Qingwu was slightly surprised as to where this jealousy came from.
Princess Huachang ordered her maid to light the Jade Dew Pear incense in the tent.
Then he said, "It is understandable that Concubine Wei is targeting you like this."
Ji Qingwu sniffed the sweet fragrance spreading in the room and said, "Because my last arrow yesterday made Concubine Wei feel humiliated?"
She did not intend to compete with him, but was provoked by Concubine Wei's words "I am convinced", so she shot the arrow at the opponent's target.
There was helplessness in Princess Huachang's eyes. This Miss Ji Wu and Yuchi Lianping were really similar in some things.
She shook her head and said, "Of course it's because the emperor treats you differently from others."
If you stand in the perspective of others, you can always see things clearly.
Is it different...
Ji Qingwu also felt that it was different in his heart.
Emperor Wu Su and she were forced to be tied together four years ago, and they share a common blood.
As the only woman who could give birth to his children, Ji Qingwu was already special enough. Because of this specialness, the emperor had many entanglements with her.
As a person immersed in it, Ji Qingwu only felt that a man like Emperor Wu Su, whose looks and power were rare in the world, could easily make a girl fall in love with him.
Therefore, it was normal for her to have feelings in her heart.
She wanted to stop it but couldn't. What else could she do but let it grow wildly.
But Ji Qingwu never believed in the momentary physical desires and the sweet words whispered in her ears when he was passionate.
Because she herself is the best example.
In order to complete the task, she said many sweet words to Wei Tingke. She said it so many times that even she believed it.
Ji Qingwu sighed softly.
Seeing her disappointed expression, Princess Huachang said, "Sometimes, what you see is not necessarily true. You need to feel it with your heart."
This sentence reminded Ji Qingwu.
She didn't come here to sigh, she had important things to do.
She asked, "Your Highness, has the Prince Consort's diet changed recently?"
She changed the subject so quickly that Princess Huachang was stunned for a moment before she called her maid in to question her.
The maid replied, "The prince consort's daily diet is the same as usual. He still likes to eat these dishes: assorted Su dishes, chestnut chicken, fried pork, stir-fried kidney, roasted pork elbow, and glutinous rice stuffed duck."
Princess Huachang felt sick just by hearing the names of these dishes.
She took the fan made of chiffon, waved it, and asked the maid to leave.
After the door was closed, she raised her eyes and asked, "Qingwu, do you see something wrong? What are you suspecting? We can just talk straight."
Ever since Ji Qingwu took her pulse directly and touched the skin on her wrist last time, they could be considered to have had some "skin-to-skin contact".
Princess Huachang already regarded her as her own.
Ji Qingwu stared into the other person's eyes which were as clear as glass.
In fact, she knew in her heart that as a general, Yuchi Lianping's meals should be prepared by someone every day so that he would not accidentally ingest medicine. Besides, with his sturdy physique, no one could force him to take medicine unless several people tied him up.
It is highly likely that he took it voluntarily.
But this is the worst case scenario...
Ji Qingwu said, "Your Highness, you are in good health, but you have not been able to conceive because your husband secretly took medicine. When I took his pulse that day, he was most likely using the medicine Rushanhu."
Princess Huachang paused while holding the round fan, her brows drooping.
"What did you say?"
Ji Qingwu felt a cold wind blowing into her neck, but luckily she was prepared and wore a high-necked blouse when she came today.
She tightened her collar and said, "What I mean is that the Prince Consort used contraceptive drugs."
"he?"
Princess Huachang snorted lightly, raised her eyebrows, and retorted: "He won't play such a trick on me."
The two looked at each other. Ji Qingwu's eyes were too firm, and Princess Huachang's heart began to waver.
I began to think back on this period of time and noticed his abnormality.
Just like the night before in the grassland tent, she came unexpectedly, and they didn't finish that time, mainly because his leg injury was broken, but at that time, she pushed him away from her.
If that is the case...
Princess Huachang's throat was churning, she clenched her teeth, and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Ji Qingwu said softly, "Your Highness, I have always wanted to know why you want to get pregnant. Have you discussed this with General Yuchi? After all, the child is for both of you. What does he think?"
Princess Huachang was stunned. The previous few times she invited Ji Qingwu to the mansion for medical treatment, Yuchi Lianping was very enthusiastic and did not show any resistance, so she ignored his idea.
It turns out that he doesn't want a child, or he doesn't want the child she gives birth to.
The jade handle of the fan left marks on Princess Huachang's palms.
She asked, "Qingwu, why did you want to give birth to the child in the first place? Have you discussed it with your husband?"
Why have children.
A thought flashed through Ji Qingwu's mind, because the child's father's family had a throne to inherit.
Unfortunately, he was destined to have no descendants.
Coincidentally, she is the only one who can give birth.
She had no choice.
Ji Qingwu couldn't tell the truth, so he could only say dryly: "He went to the army before he knew I was pregnant."
Princess Huachang looked at the colorful tiger skin on the chair.
The two have been married for seven years and have not been able to conceive. No matter what rumors there are, neither of them has ever mentioned it to each other.
Princess Huachang would just hide when she saw children. She felt annoyed and did not envy the happiness of other families having children around their laps. She only felt like taking a few more glances at the little prince in the palace.
Princess Huachang doesn't want to be involved with too many people, and she is living a comfortable life in these quiet days.
But that day, the emperor didn't know what was wrong with him.
Suddenly, the fifth daughter of the Ji family, who had just been brought home, was sent over to diagnose her illness. If the eunuch who came to deliver the message had not also brought the manuscript of Yan Gong, which is known as the second best running script in the world.
Given Princess Huachang's temper, she would not allow Ji Qingwu to enter the house.
It just so happened that this Miss Ji was as clean and fresh as a summer lotus, and her voice was soft and pleasant when she spoke, so she reluctantly found her pleasing to the eye.
