Chapter 464 The Truth
The ministers said it several times, but Shen Hechuan just did what he wanted and went to persuade Gu Jingchun again.
But Gu Jingchun kept pretending to be stupid.
Gradually, the ministers became numb.
At this time, Gu Jingchun handled several political affairs neatly and efficiently.
Her abilities were gradually recognized by the officials, and the voices of opposition gradually became less.
After the morning court session, Jiang Chongfan was riding in a carriage back home when an arrow suddenly shot into the carriage.
There was a letter on the arrow.
Seeing this, the servant took out the letter and handed it to Jiang Chongfan.
Jiang Chongfan was still in shock, but after seeing the contents of the letter, his expression changed drastically. He didn't care about anything else and immediately shouted, "Go back to the palace, go back to the palace. I want to see the emperor."
Waiting to the palace.
Jiang Chongfan knelt down without saying a word.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Chen Hechuan was originally practicing calligraphy, and he looked up when he heard this.
"What happened to the Queen?"
Jiang Chongfan: "Today, on the way back home, I received a letter saying that the Queen's health was damaged and she would not be able to get pregnant in the future."
"I beg Your Majesty to summon the imperial physician immediately to take the Empress's pulse."
Shen Hechuan sneered.
"What if the Queen really can't get pregnant?"
Jiang Chongfan: "If she really can't get pregnant again, then I'm afraid she won't be qualified to be the queen."
"Since ancient times, the position of queen must..."
“Snap—”
Chen Hechuan threw the teacup in his hand directly in front of Jiang Chongfan.
"Jiang Chongfan!"
"Since when did you get to decide my position as queen?"
Jiang Chongfan's body trembled, but he spoke again.
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that this will affect the future of our country."
"What is this country and society?"
"I, Dacheng, already have a crown prince. So what does it matter if the queen has children now?"
"Today, I will pretend that you have never been here. You'd better keep all these words to yourself. Otherwise, if I hear anything, I will hold you accountable."
Jiang Chongfan didn't expect that Chen Hechuan would protect Gu Jingchun to this extent.
Although he was surprised, he could do nothing but stand up and bow to leave.
However, he was stopped by Shen Hechuan again.
"stop!"
"Leave the letter you received!"
Jiang Chongfan lowered his head to take a look before handing the letter to Chen Hechuan.
After Jiang Chongfan left, Shen Hechuan looked at the contents of the letter and punched the imperial desk in anger.
"Which bastard is talking nonsense?"
"Go and investigate for me. Once I catch him, I will tear him into pieces."
However, although Shen Hechuan was angry about this matter, he thought it was just some low-level tactics of the minister, so he did not take it to heart.

Recently, Gu Jingchun has also been very distressed.
Gu Jingchun never thought that one day she would still be troubled by the need to give birth.
I watched the Queen Mother asking about her stomach's reaction again and again.
Gu Jingchun felt a little uncomfortable at first, but eventually he became numb.
However, the continuous tests made Gu Jingchun a little tired, so she decided to start with Chen Hechuan and solve the problem directly.
And today is an opportunity.
At this time, Chen Hechuan was looking at Gu Jinxi who was eating, and suddenly spoke something.
"Xi'er is already this old. If she has a younger sister, she will probably not cling to her mother anymore."
With just one sentence, Gu Jingchun and Gu Jinxi stopped what they were doing and looked straight at Chen Hechuan.
This time, Chen Hechuan finally realized that something was wrong. Looking at the expressions of the two men, he couldn't help but speak.
"What's going on?"
"Did I say something wrong?"
Gu Jingchun sighed and looked at Gu Jinxi first.
"Xi'er, go back after you're full. I have something to say to your father."
Gu Jinxi put down his chopsticks and looked at Gu Jingchun seriously.
"Mother, I won't leave. I know everything that happened back then, and I understand everything. I don't want you to treat me like a child anymore."
Gu Jingchun was even more surprised when he heard this.
"You actually knew that?"
Gu Jinxi nodded, lowered her voice a few degrees, and watched Gu Jingchun's reaction carefully.
"I've heard your conversation with Lan Xin before..."
Gu Jingchun suddenly realized, and his eyes became moist in an instant.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jinxi knew everything, but he said nothing and pretended not to know.
No wonder, he used to say something to comfort her from time to time.
It turned out that Gu Jinxi was really protecting her in his own way.
Gu Jingchun walked forward and held Gu Jinxi in his arms, feeling comforted.
This made Shen Hechuan a little confused, and he even had a bad feeling, and he thought of the letter in an instant.
"What do you mean? I don't understand."
After Gu Jingchun calmed down, he looked at Chen Hechuan.
"Chen Hechuan, it's my fault. I didn't explain things to you clearly before."
When Shen Hechuan heard this, he looked straight at Gu Jingchun.
"What do you mean by that?"
Gu Jingchun: "I know you want a daughter, but..."
Gu Jingchun paused, then raised his eyes, strengthened his tone, and continued speaking.
"But I can never give you another daughter in this life."
Hearing this, Shen Hechuan stood up suddenly, his face full of astonishment.
"Why is that?"
Gu Jingchun looked at him and felt a slight pain in his heart, and even breathing became a little difficult.
In the past, she had always been indestructible. Even when faced with life and death, she would not feel pain or discomfort.
But ever since she got together with Chen Hechuan, she felt uncomfortable over the smallest things. Now, just talking about her past made her eyes sore and she felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't speak.
She took a few deep breaths before speaking.
"When I gave birth to Xier, something unexpected happened. I will never have children again in this life."
Chen Hechuan looked at Gu Jingchun, his pupils dilated, then he squatted down and held Gu Jingchun's hand in his trembling hand.
"You... didn't tell me before."
Because of heartache, his voice became trembling. He wanted to ask more, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he was a little afraid to ask more.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't left you, you wouldn't have suffered so much, and you wouldn't have let your body get hurt so much."
Gu Jingchun shook his head.
"No, it's not your fault."
She sighed, as if she was back in those painful days.
"By then, even if you were with me, I'm afraid nothing would change."
"Because, what got me into trouble was not an accident, but man-made."
Chen Hechuan was stunned for a moment, and guessed that there was something hidden in it, so he listened quietly to what Gu Jingchun said next.
