"If … this is really your idea, I will respect your choice."
Jiang Pengji sighed. She was not a person who liked to force things.
Everyone had their own choices. Since Huijun had chosen this path, she could not arbitrarily ask her to change it.
Huijun's gaze was gentle. She nodded at Jiang Pengji and thanked her. "Thank you for your understanding, Langjun."
To be honest, Huijun did not lie against her will this time. She really wanted to give birth to a child of her own.
When she was young, she was ignorant and did not know what it meant to lose the ability to have children.
But to this day, she still remembered the scene of her birth mother forcing her to be drugged. That crazy woman even tied her hands and feet and pressed down hard on her lower abdomen … The heart-wrenching pain that spread throughout her entire body still made her tremble uncontrollably when she recalled it in her dreams.
After a few times, Huijun's body was completely ruined. It was impossible for her to have children again.
That was the wound in Huijun's heart. It could not heal for a long time. She could only try her best to ignore its existence.
She did not expect that she would miraculously get pregnant after so many years.
If the child's father was not the late emperor of Dongqing, Huijun would have had the urge to give birth to the child.
However, she could only laugh bitterly and use the child in her womb to get rid of the second prince's wife, An Yina.
Since then, Huijun knew that her broken body had completely recovered. Her lost ability to have children had also returned.
That meant that she could use a man to get pregnant and give birth to a child that was related to her by blood.
Seeing that Huijun had made up her mind, Jiang Pengji could only support her.
However …
"Getting pregnant is not something else. How can you guarantee that you will get pregnant in one go?"
If it was in her era, she could directly go to a specialized institution for a minor surgery if she wanted to have a child. However, it was different in this era.
The fertility method was still the most ancient and primitive. There was a certain probability that a woman could get pregnant after a man and a woman had intercourse.
Huijun lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "I used the Easy Pregnancy Pill that you gave me earlier …"
Easy Pregnancy Pill?
Jiang Pengji furrowed her brows. She remembered that it had fallen into Liu Huan's hands. Why did Huijun have it too?
She asked directly, "Didn't I ask you to pass the Easy Pregnancy Pill to Liu Huan?"
Huijun explained, "The Easy Pregnancy Pill was indeed in Liu Huan's hands, but do you know what she did after getting it?"
"What did you do?"
Huijun said, "Liu Huan has always been on guard against me. Naturally, she would not easily consume the elixir. This person was naturally vicious. He actually ground some medicinal powder, mixed it in his food, and gave it to a woman who did odd jobs several times. In order to verify the miraculous effects of the pill, she even sent someone to secretly defile the woman. The woman did not have any children for three years after she married into her husband's family, but a month after that incident, the woman's pulse of pregnancy was diagnosed. "
To be able to make a woman who had not had any movement for three years pregnant in one go, the effect of this medicine was too shocking.
Huijun thought of her own situation. For some strange reason, she secretly kept some medicinal powder for the elixir.
After listening, Jiang Pengji understood what was going on.
"This thing can indeed allow a woman's body to enter the best state of pregnancy, greatly increasing the chances of conceiving."
In other words, as long as her luck wasn't too bad, Huijun would soon become a mother.
In order to reform Huijun's body, Jiang Pengji had used up all the cards in the System.
This system card was completely different from the Skill Books sold by the system.
The Skill Books sold by the system were made from the soul of the previous host, extracting the memories related to the skill from the soul.
When the host used the Skill Books, they actually merged with this part of the soul and seamlessly received the memories contained in it.
In essence, the System card was a condensation of pure energy. It was beneficial and harmless to the human body. It was a completely different concept from the Skill Books.
However, she still had a question. Why did it have to be Fu Wang?
Fu Wang's position was completely hostile to Jiang Pengji. She was pregnant with Fu Wang's child. Wasn't she afraid that Jiang Pengji would be disgusted?
Faced with this question, Huijun hesitated for a while before revealing the truth.
"I have no intention of telling the child the truth about her father."
Apart from her and Langjun, no one else would know about this.
Jiang Pengji asked, "You don't intend to let Fu Wang know?"
Huijun was stunned for a moment. She asked with uncertainty, "Will the lord let that person live?"
She thought that Fu Wang would definitely die.
Jiang Pengji was speechless.
She had an inexplicable impulse to sympathize with Fu Wang.
"No matter what, he is a valiant general. If we can recruit him, of course we won't kill him."
If Fu Wang died in battle, it would be difficult to recruit his old subordinates. It might even be a ticking time bomb.
No matter what, Fu Wang's value alive was far greater than his value dead.
Therefore, it was Huijun's turn to be stunned.
What should she do if things went beyond her expectations?
After a while, she looked down at her right hand caressing her abdomen. Her expression was particularly interesting.
"Then … then what should we do?"
Her face was pale, and her swollen lips had lost their color.
If Fu Wang died, there would be no evidence. But if he was alive, it would be awkward.
"Don't be afraid! I'm here. "
Jiang Pengji comforted Huijun to prevent her from doing something stupid.
"Thank you, Langjun."
Huijun felt relieved, and her eyes became moist.
"Silly girl." Jiang Pengji rubbed her long hair with a smile. "Tidy up. It's still chaotic outside. Don't run around."
Although they had conquered Jiamen Pass, it was still very dangerous outside. If Huijun ran around, she could easily get into trouble.
"Okay."
Huijun nodded obediently.
After settling her down, Jiang Pengji sent some people to guard the place to prevent the army from attacking.
"My lord, great news!"
Meng Hun was overjoyed from afar. He said to Jiang Pengji, "Deputy Commander Dian has captured Fu Wang alive!"
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows and searched for memories related to Fu Wang.
Fu Wang was captured by Dian Yan?
She asked coldly, "Where is Fu Wang now?"
While Jiang Pengji was looking for Huijun, Feng Zhen and the others had already gathered their troops and rushed over.
They didn't expect their lord to be so efficient. She didn't even give them a chance to help.
Meng Hun was so excited that he didn't notice Jiang Pengji's abnormality.
"He's been captured, but …" Meng Hun frowned and said doubtfully, "But … the military doctor said that Fu Wang ate a lot of sleeping grass powder by mistake … He won't wake up until the next day …"
Jiang Pengji stopped in her tracks and asked in surprise, "Fu Wang ate sleeping grass by mistake?"
Meng Hun nodded and said with certainty, "The doctor diagnosed him several times. He did eat sleeping grass by mistake."
Meng Hun was also confused. Fu Wang wasn't a careless person. He was very particular about his diet. It was impossible for him to eat sleeping grass by mistake.
Could it be that the rumors had worked? Did the soldiers close to the Meng's drug him and plot against him?
