Chapter 1480: Chapter 1480: The Troublemaking Woman

Imperial Physician Li knelt on the ground, reporting to Emperor Chu about the pulse case of Princess Min, quietly awaiting his instructions.

Eunuch Zhou also clasped his hands, glancing at Emperor Chu on the throne. How would this master give his orders?

Emperor Chu lightly tapped the table, saying, "This is Princess Min’s first pregnancy. Imperial Physician Li, you will be responsible for it. Ensure the safety of this child; this might well be the only child the Prince and the Princess will have."

Imperial Physician Li trembled inwardly, prostrating on the ground, responding fearfully, "I will comply."

Emperor Chu waved his hand, and Imperial Physician Li withdrew.

Eunuch Zhou stepped forward and refilled the tea, saying, "Your Majesty, it’s quite unexpected that Princess Min conceived on the first try. It’s as if this child were fated. However, wasn’t it said that Princess Consort Ji secretly fed her a secret medicine, which is known to be harmful to a pregnancy? We do not know if this child might have some abnormalities."

Emperor Chu said indifferently, "Whether this child is healthy will be known when it is born."

"Will Your Majesty truly allow her to give birth?"

Emperor Chu glanced at him, a half-smile on his face, "Why wouldn’t I? After all, it is still my niece or nephew."

At the same time, we can also see if some unyielding individuals might be drawn to this child.

Eunuch Zhou praised, "Your Majesty is wise."

Emperor Chu stood up, saying, "Proceed to Kunning Palace."

...

Niu Pan’er returned home, first comforting her son, then was pulled into the bathing room by her husband.

"Take it off."

Niu Pan’er: "..."

She looked at Song Zhiyu, raising an eyebrow and teasingly said, "Seriously, I’ve only been out for a short while, and you’re already this desperate, my Jade Gentleman?"

Song Zhiyu glared at her, "Will you just shut up? Who said anything about wanting that with you?"

Niu Pan’er deliberately misinterpreted his words, "Which ’that’ do you mean? Do explain in detail, my Jade Gentleman."

"You with the surname Niu, are you going to take it off or not? Don’t force me to do it myself, okay?" Song Zhiyu pretended to be annoyed, "If you keep dawdling, I’ll take our son back to the Prime Minister’s Mansion."

"Shall I see you off?"

Song Zhiyu’s expression turned completely dark, such evasiveness surely meant something was amiss.

These women, could he still not handle her?

Song Zhiyu stared at Niu Pan’er with wide eyes.

On the verge of tears, feeling wronged.

Looking just like a tearful little puppy.

"Fine, I’ll take it off, can’t I?" Niu Pan’er conceded defeat, knowing she couldn’t hide it, so she quickly stripped off her clothes, revealing a fresh scar on her waist and abdomen to Song Zhiyu.

This troublesome woman!

Song Zhiyu gazed at the scar that had just scabbed over but hadn’t fully healed, feeling a stab of pain in his heart, and he glared fiercely at Niu Pan’er, "The Brave General is quite capable indeed, doesn’t this suit your title ’Brave’ well?"

Though his words were harsh, his eyes held pain and tenderness.

Niu Pan’er said, "It was a moment of carelessness. It didn’t hurt any vital organs. Don’t worry."

"Why would I be worried? You’re standing there perfectly fine in front of me, anyway. You’re not being carried back in a coffin draped with the Great Qing’s flag, so I’m very relieved." Song Zhiyu gritted his teeth.

Well, the child’s father was genuinely angry.

Niu Pan’er hugged her arms, saying, "My Jade Gentleman, I’m cold. Why don’t you bathe me?"

"Freezing is just what you deserve!" Song Zhiyu dragged her into the bath, submerging her entirely in the water, grabbed a nearby soap bean, and gently rubbed it on her scarred back, tears involuntarily falling onto her back.

Niu Pan’er felt her heart soften, turned around, and pulled him into the bath, embracing him with her chin nestled on his neck, murmuring, "My Jade Gentleman, it’s all my fault. In the future, I’ll definitely protect myself because at home, there’s still you and Shen’er. I can’t let anything happen to me."

Having a family adds a vulnerability; her life was no longer hers alone.
