“Not too much…”

"Xi girl, I know it was wrong of me to force you here, but I really like you. I like what you like... I like you so much that I can give you my life even if you ask for it. I don't know what's wrong with me. Am I obsessed or possessed?"

She disdained to listen to his love words and interrupted him immediately.

"I heard that the Crown Princess also knelt with you outside the palace for three days and three nights? Her love for you is real."

When mentioning Hu Jiaoyue, Chu Hanxiang's eyes no longer showed the disgust as before, but a gentle nod.

"Her actions this time really surprised me. I thought she would hate you and would want you to leave, but I didn't expect that she would join me in begging Father to let you stay."

"She loves you, so she hopes you're well. If you have the chance, go spend more time with her!"

"Ugh!"

Chu Hanxiang sighed helplessly.

"I do want to accompany her, but every time I go to Qiuyuyuan, she keeps asking for more, which makes me exhausted. She is eager to give birth to a child for me, which I can understand, but I am already very tired after doing it once every night, and she wants it twice, three times..."

At this point, he realized that he shouldn't say these words in front of her, and stopped talking.

"Xi girl, don't be angry when I say this, but don't worry, I won't do it again in the future. I will wait for you for a year. During this year, I promise not to touch other women, including her."

what?

Luo Nianxi's brows tightened in an instant.

Her one-year agreement was just a delaying tactic. She just wanted to protect Leng Rujing here so that she could give birth to the child safely. She also had a premonition that one day, Leng Yiyan would come to find her.

But Chu Hanxiang wants to give up women for her? This...

She shook her head and reminded him,

"It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. You have one wife and six concubines in your mansion. Your Highness does not need to keep your loyalty that no longer exists for me. It is totally unnecessary."

After hearing what she said, Chu Hanxiang scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Xi girl, I'm really not a woman who falls in love with every woman I meet. I really want to continue the royal family line. You have to believe me..."

When it comes to the matter of continuing the family line, Luo Nianxi suddenly had a plan in mind.

She is a doctor and she owns Bao'an Hall. If she can make his women pregnant within this year, will he not care so much about her?

Thinking of this, she suddenly had an idea. She had to find out the reason why her wife and six concubines were infertile. She wanted to find out whether it was because of Chu Hanxiang or because of these women?

Infertility is not a difficult disease. It can be easily cured as long as the right method is found.

Thinking of this, she raised her eyebrows at Chu Hanxiang.

"By the way, I learned some medical skills when I was in Pingyang Kingdom. Let me check your pulse!"

Chu Hanxiang waved his hand immediately.

"I'm in good health, nothing wrong with me. Besides, there are so many imperial doctors in the palace, how can I trouble Xi to do it?"

"Your Highness, do you not trust me?"

Her question made Chu Hanxiang stunned for a moment, then he grinned.

"How could that be? Xi girl, I'd be willing to die if you asked me to, so how could I not trust you?"

She curled her lips and smiled softly.

"To tell you the truth, I studied medicine before, but I'm not very good at it. I'm just addicted to all kinds of pulse readings. Anyway, I'm bored all day long at home with nothing to do. How about this, you find a few people and let me check their pulses, so that I can kill some time?"

Chu Hanxiang frowned.

"Let you kill time? That's fine, but you can't touch those servants with your delicate hands. Let's let the concubines come. Oh, and Jiaoyue, she's sick now, you should go and check her pulse when you have time..."

This idea was exactly what she wanted, and she nodded immediately.

"Okay, let me check your pulse today!"

She had to find a reason that could justify examining their illnesses without anyone noticing!

Chu Hanxiang hesitated for a moment and put his wrist on the table.

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you, girl."

Luo Nianxi nodded slightly, put the handkerchief over his pulse, and began to check his pulse...

His pulse is steady and strong, which complements his rosy complexion. It also shows that his body functions normally and his vitality is strong.

Judging from his pulse and her clinical experience, his sperm would not be weak or dead.

So why are these seven women infertile at the same time?

She retracted her fingers, lifted the handkerchief, and nodded with her brows slightly lowered.

"A steady pulse is a sign of good health."

Chu Hanxiang immediately withdrew his wrist and smiled triumphantly.

"I told you, there's nothing wrong with my body. Someone, call the sixth concubine to accompany Xi girl to pass the time."

After hearing the order, the guard hurried to call someone, while Chu Hanxiang rested his hand on his chin and looked at Luo Nianxi lovingly.

"Xi girl, I just thought about it. The one year you mentioned should be counted from the day you left Pingyang Country."

He was trying to find ways to bring forward the time when he would take her as his concubine.

She made a rough calculation and found that they left Pingyang State in early September, which was one and a half months from now. A month ago, she discovered on the road that Leng Rujing was less than two months pregnant. According to the current time, she would be able to give birth by May next year, which was enough time.

She nodded immediately,

"Okay, the time is up to you."

Hearing this, Chu Hanxiang nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, okay, then I can ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare according to the date."

"Your Highness, the Emperor has asked us to keep everything simple, so why bother making things so complicated and causing suspicion? This is not a good thing for me. Besides, I have never been a person who cares about ceremonies..."

Chu Hanxiang obeyed her words.

"Okay, then everything is up to you. I'll announce it in the mansion, and we'll be done..."

Anyway, no matter what, he was very excited just thinking that one day he would be able to make love with Xi girl.

At this time, six concubines came to Qiuxiang Garden one by one with lazy steps. They came forward to salute with disdain in their eyes.

"Good luck to your Royal Highness!"

Chu Hanxiang's face immediately turned cold.

"Don't you see Princess Xi is here? Salute her?"

The maids glared at her with disdain, and the eldest concubine spoke first:

"Your Highness, she is just a second-married woman. When we were with you, we were at least innocent. Why should we pay our respects to her?"

"Snapped!"

As soon as she said this, Chu Hanxiang suddenly stood up, walked to the eldest concubine, stretched out his hand, and hit her in the face with all his strength.

The eldest concubine's face became red and swollen in an instant, and the other five people lowered their heads when they saw this.

Seeing the concubine covering her face with a look of grievance, Chu Hanxiang angrily shouted:

"From now on, if anyone dares to talk about Princess Xi behind her back, a slap in the face is the least of their punishment. Do you remember that?"

The eldest concubine bit her lip tightly, and bowed and nodded along with the other five women.

"remember."

Chu Hanxiang said again:

"In the mansion, her status is the same as that of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. She is your master. From now on, whoever dares not listen to her words will be kicked out. Do you remember this?

The six women responded again unwillingly.

"remember."

"Now stand still. Xi girl is feeling depressed, so I need to check your pulse."
