Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem
Chapter 65: 1 Bowl of Tonic
Elegant Palace
Chen Xier sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the bloodshot in her eyes with a look of impatience.
After calling Shen Huachun last night, the two of them talked until very late before going to bed, and their faces could not hide their haggardness.
Zi Shuang walked in, bowed, and whispered, "Your Majesty, the Zhonghe Palace has sent a message to all the other palaces. Today, the ladies in the harem do not need to pay their respects."
After Zi Shuang finished speaking, he knew that Chen Xier would be angry, so he lowered his head first.
Next second
Chen Xier threw the hairpin in her hand hard to the ground. The precious hairpin instantly shattered into pieces. The palace maids in the room were so scared that they immediately knelt down.
Chen Xier snorted coldly.
Who is Lin Junxue protesting to? She just served him overnight, so she doesn't even need to pay her respects today!
Isn't it just to let her know how hard it was to serve her last night?
She wanted to see if Lin Junxue would still be able to laugh in a few days.
Zhonghe Palace
Lin Junxue took a nap and felt very energetic. After washing and putting on makeup, she had just finished her breakfast.
Qiao Xin walked in from outside
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Gao is here, and he is followed by a young eunuch. Eunuch Gao said that the Emperor specially gave you a tonic."
Lin Junxue paused, nodded slightly, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
She has been acting in costume dramas for so many years, and now that Gao Cheng has come, it is most likely that he is giving her that kind of "good stuff".
Lin Junxue said calmly, "Let him in."
After a while
Qiao Xin brought Gao Cheng in, and the eunuch behind Gao Cheng was holding a bowl of medicine.
Gao Cheng bowed to Lin Junxue and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this is the tonic that the Emperor personally asked the Imperial Hospital to prepare for you. The Emperor was thinking about you and asked me to personally deliver it to you."
Lin Junxue looked at Gao Cheng, and actually she really wanted to laugh.
It's hard for Gao Cheng. He knows what this medicinal food is, but he can still say it's a tonic without changing his expression. He is worthy of being around the emperor.
If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would really believe this.
Contraceptive drugs are described as nourishing medicinal foods. Gao Cheng's acting is also good.
Lin Junxue showed a shy smile, and Gao Cheng saw it clearly when he looked up.
He thought that the Queen was really simple-minded and really thought it was a tonic.
Lin Junxue said softly, "Danzhen, bring it here. Eunuch Gao, please thank the emperor on my behalf."
Gao Cheng nodded quickly, Danzhen stepped forward, picked up the medicine, and handed it to Lin Junxue.
Lin Junxue picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp without even frowning.
After Lin Junxue finished drinking, she turned it over to prove to Gao Cheng that she had drunk every drop.
When Gao Cheng saw that the medicine bowl was empty, he immediately smiled and said, "Then, Queen, I will not disturb you from having breakfast. I will take my leave now."
Lin Junxue nodded. After Gao Cheng left, only Lin Junxue, Qiao Xin and her servant were left in the room.
Danzhen is well versed in medical knowledge and had already smelled something wrong with the medicinal food.
She said, "Madam, this medicinal food doesn't smell like a nourishing medicinal food, this..."
Guyu and Qiaoxin were silent.
If what Gao Cheng just sent over was not a nourishing medicinal meal, then what was it?
Lin Junxue looked at the expressions of the three people, narrowed her eyes, and chuckled.
"This is certainly not a tonic, but a contraceptive medicine."
Silence fills the room
Danzhen, who was standing next to him, had already smelled it, but she didn't dare to confirm it.
She was well versed in medicine and naturally knew that contraceptive pills were harmful to women's bodies.
The Emperor has clearly been so doting on the Empress during this period, but today he asked Eunuch Gao to deliver the contraceptive medicine. He really has a cruel heart!
Danzhen said with a distressed look on her face, "Your Majesty, you can't take this medicine. If you take this contraceptive medicine for a long time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get pregnant in the future. Your Majesty must find a way to turn it down."
Qiao Xin also frowned and said, "My Queen, Dan Zhen is right, this contraceptive medicine is not a good thing, I should find a way to postpone it next time."
Guyu also said immediately, "Your Majesty, Aunt Qiaoxin and Danzhen are right. This contraceptive medicine is in the harem. Any queen who hears about it will avoid it. What on earth is the emperor thinking? He actually gave you this contraceptive medicine."
Lin Junxue looked at the worry on the three people's faces and smiled slightly.
"The Emperor asked Gao Cheng to personally deliver the contraceptive medicine to me, so I have no choice but to drink it. Even if I find a hundred excuses to refuse the contraceptive medicine, the Emperor will still find a way. Why bother? I know in my heart that the Emperor will not allow me to give birth to a prince with Lin's bloodline. My father and brother control nearly half of the dynasty's military forces. Have you ever thought that if I give birth to a prince, will you still be able to be the Emperor with peace of mind?"
In fact, even if Gao Cheng hadn't personally delivered the contraceptive medicine, she would have found a way to ask Danzhen to prepare the medicine. She didn't want to have Xie Yu's child at all.
In this harem, it doesn’t matter how she fights alone.
But if she really had a child, even if she could protect the child and bring him to the world safely, what about the child's growth process? Could she watch over him all the time?
By then, everyone in the harem will probably want this child's life.
Even Xie Yu did not let go of this biological child with Lin's blood.
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. This saying has never been suitable for this feudal dynasty.
Besides, since she didn't love Xie Yu, she would naturally never give birth to his child. Xie Yu's move saved her from having to worry too much.
Also, since Xie Yu personally sent the contraceptive medicine, he at least felt a little guilty towards her, which was also a good thing for her.
When Qiao Xin and the other two heard this, they fell silent, and couldn't help feeling sorry for Lin Junxue.
If this is true, then Her Majesty the Queen won't even be able to have her own children in the future?
If I have no children in this harem, how will I live in the future?
Lin Junxue looked at the three of them and spoke to comfort them.
"Qiaoxin, Danzhen, Guyu, I am destined to be childless in this life, so you don't have to be too sad. You still have to live. And this matter, I and the three of you only need to know. From now on, when the emperor sends you medicinal food, you must not show any suspicious expression."
The three of them nodded solemnly and said in unison, "I understand."
Next second
Lin Junxue frowned.
Guyu asked, "My Lady, what's wrong?"
Lin Junxue nodded thoughtfully. "Or, I should think of a way to let the emperor know that it will be difficult for me to get pregnant in the future, and at the same time avoid this bitter and unpalatable contraceptive soup."
Lin Junxue looked at Danzhen and said, "Danzhen, you are well versed in medical knowledge. Is there any way to make my body appear difficult to conceive when taking a pulse?"
Danzhen has studied medicine for more than ten years, but she never thought that one day she would have to prepare this kind of medicine for the Empress herself.
Danzhen thought about it seriously, nodded, and whispered, "My lady, I can make a medicine. The ingredients are simple. If you drink it, your body will feel cold, and..."
Danzhen didn't want to give Lin Junxue this kind of medicine.
Lin Junxue raised her eyebrows, looked at Danzhen who was hesitating, and said calmly, "Danzhen, go on."
Jane had no choice but to tell it all.
"Your Highness, if you really drink this medicine, you will not be able to get pregnant for at least ten years, Your Highness, have you really thought it through? What if, what if one day, the Emperor is willing to let you get pregnant?"
Although Danzhen knew that the possibility was very small, even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, she didn't want the queen to ruin her body like this.
