Chapter 1627

~8 min read 1,554 words

Chen Guanlou went to the villa outside the city to have a tryst with Concubine Jing.

The two had a moment of tenderness.

Afterward, Concubine Jing leaned in his arms and brought up the old matter again, "I want a child."

Chen Guanlou was originally satisfied, but hearing the word child, his face instantly turned gloomy.

"Are you tired of not dying fast enough?"

He was vicious, without a good face.

Concubine Jing looked at him foolishly, her eyes filled with tears, "My brother, it has been determined that he cannot reproduce."

Chen Guanlou frowned.

Concubine Jing continued: "Years of military slave life destroyed his body. During the time the late Emperor passed away, he was calculated against again, injured on top of injury. I thought he was raised well and it would be fine. Some time ago, he saw a doctor, not just one doctor, all doctors said he damaged the root, and he would never have his own children in this life."

"Where did the quack doctor come from?"

Chen Guanlou was half-believing.

He knew that male infertility was quite common, in his previous life, relatives at home, colleagues in the unit all had this situation, what azoospermia, oligospermia... just didn't expect that men in this era also had this problem.

"Why not change a doctor. Taiyi physician Mu in the Heavenly Prison is good at treating male infertility, maybe there is a way."

"I'm afraid it's just a joy in vain." Concubine Jing looked frustrated and very disappointed.

"How do you know it's a joy in vain without trying."

"If it really is a joy in vain, can you give me a child?"

"You are really not afraid of death." Chen Guanlou sneered.

Concubine Jing chuckled, "From the day I was born, I have been facing death every day, living until now is not because I have a big life, just because my life is cheap. Because it is cheap, I use every means possible. Since I dare to get pregnant, I have a way to muddle through. You don't need to worry about me."

Chen Guanlou stroked the other's cheek.

This was the first time he saw a woman say her life was cheap as if nothing had happened.

He coughed lightly and smiled, "So it really is a suspicion of my character. We haven't had any serious dealings before, so you don't know me well. Let me formally introduce myself: I am a man who takes money to get things done, and I never cheat the old or the young. When I promise something, my word is as good as gold.

Concubine Jing instantly laughed, and while laughing, she cried, tears like crystal jade beads, rolling down her cheeks.

She hugged him tightly, "Don't be too good to me, otherwise I will haunt you even if I become a ghost."

Chen Guanlou laughed angrily, "You are threatening me. The way of threatening is truly unique."

"Then give me a child!" Concubine Jing seemed to have an obsession, and she had to have a child.

"You want a child, there are ways. Why must it be me?" Chen Guanlou asked curiously.

"Because you are the best, and also the safest! Don't worry, after getting pregnant, our relationship will end there. No matter what situation I face in the future, I will never disturb you. Although I am a woman, I can also keep my word!"

Concubine Jing made a solemn promise.

She knew that the other party hated being pestered most, hated using children as bargaining chips most, and hated raising children most.

She had a sense of proportion!

What Chen Guanlou liked most was her unyielding spirit, like a cockroach that couldn't be beaten to death. Secondly, it was that she knew the sense of proportion!

He pinched the other's chin, "Let Taiyi physician Mu treat your brother first, we'll talk about the child later."

Concubine Jing was overjoyed.

She knew he had loosened his mouth!

"Thank you!"

"Also, it's not your turn to say stop! Our relationship can only be stopped by me!"

Concubine Jing lowered her head and smiled, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

As long as she could have a child, she didn't mind compromising.

The two messed around in the villa for two days and one night, and after separating, they set off to return to the capital separately.

A few days later, Concubine Jing's brother came to the Heavenly Prison.

Chen Guanlou looked at the other party, his eyebrows were very similar to Concubine Jing, but the lower half of his face had no similarity at all. Concubine Jing's features were very delicate, while Shen Wenbin's nose, lips, and chin were relatively rough. Maybe one resembled the mother, and one resembled the father.

He didn't exchange pleasantries with the other party, and directly arranged for Taiyi physician Mu to treat him.

"Try your best to cure him!"

He didn't want Concubine Jing to risk giving birth.

Concubine Jing, as a concubine of the late Emperor and a current Imperial Consort, couldn't quietly leave the capital for months without seeing anyone. Her range of activities wouldn't exceed the capital region.

And the frequency of leaving the city was too high, which would also attract the attention of people with hearts.

Once the palace learned of the abnormal situation, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Concubine Jing wanting to get pregnant and give birth was essentially gambling with her life. She also had to gamble that there were no eyes and ears planted by the palace around her.

Her situation was very awkward.

Precisely because it was awkward, many people paid attention to her.

Concubine Jing really dared to think!

She had great courage, no wonder she was able to take down Emperor Jian Shi in one go. In the harem surrounded by wolves, she could still successfully get pregnant and give birth.

It could be called a miracle!

It's just a pity that Emperor Jian Shi died too early, she hadn't had time to plan for her own son, and the person was gone. All favor instantly returned to zero!

If it weren't for the sake of reputation and decency, Empress Dowager Sun and Emperor Yuanding, mother and son, would really want to kill Concubine Jing and her son.

She had to thank Imperial Consort Xiao and her son for standing in front, attracting the attention and firepower of the Emperor and his mother.

Taiyi physician Mu finished the examination and told Chen Guanlou, "Indeed infertility."

"No cure?" Chen Guanlou frowned. He glanced at Shen Wenbin sitting in the corner, his mood a bit irritable.

Taiyi physician Mu shook his head, "His body is severely hollowed out, having suffered hardships since childhood. The most important thing right now is not having children, but saving his life."

"What do you mean?"

"I just said, his body is severely hollowed out, I am now helping him regulate, there is still salvation. Otherwise, in a few years, he won't even be able to get out of bed, and death will be three to five years away."

Chen Guanlou frowned, "So serious."

He looked at Shen Wenbin, he was quite young, estimated his age, not even thirty years old. He was going to die!

"If you help him regulate, how many years can he live?"

"If he follows the medical advice, from today on, he doesn't worry about anything, rests quietly, living to his early forties is no problem. If he wants to live longer, it depends on his physical recovery at that time, I don't dare to say it for sure."

Chen Guanlou nodded knowingly.

Forty years old, not long-lived, but not short-lived. For ordinary people, it is an acceptable age of death. But for a martial artist, it is excessively young.

Shen Wenbin is a martial artist, only a First-Rank martial artist. The martial path is exceptionally difficult.

It's not that his talent is bad, but since the Shen family fell, his situation determined that his martial path wouldn't go far. Back then, he entered the military camp with slave status, what he would encounter, one can imagine. Being able to live until now is because he has a big life.

Chen Guanlou thought for a while, "I'll go talk to him. Are you sure he can't reproduce?"

"His body is decaying like this, he can never have children in this life." Taiyi physician Mu concluded.

Chen Guanlou still felt it was a pity.

He came to Shen Wenbin, "Let's get to know each other, my surname is Chen, Chen Guanlou, Jiang Jiang Yucheng of the Heavenly Prison."

Shen Wenbin looked up at him, "Nice to meet you!"

Chen Guanlou found that the other's eyes were very similar to Concubine Jing.

Looking at Concubine Jing's face, his attitude was much better.

"Any thoughts?" He asked casually.

Shen Wenbin shook his head, very depressed, as if he had lost his vitality, "I told the Empress, don't toss, it's useless. But she is not reconciled! Sorry to trouble Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen!"

Chen Guanlou thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth, "You indeed can't reproduce, this is not the most critical thing. The real problem is, your body is very weak, if you don't regulate it, you will have at most three to five years of lifespan."
