I just want to live a happy life

One day, the weather was fine and Chen Wanyin had nothing to do, so she planned to have someone move a recliner under a tree in the palace so that she could bask in the sun and take a nap.

Just as she had asked someone to get ready, Fujia, who was by the Queen Mother's side, came and said that the Queen Mother wanted to see her.

Chen Wanyin was puzzled after hearing this. She didn't have much contact with the empress dowager, so why did she want to see her?

On the way to the Cining Palace, she thought about the original plot.

In the original plot, Ruyi was still alive at this time and became the queen. Hongli also favored Han Xiangjian at this time. At that time, the empress dowager found Ruyi and forced her to give sterilization drugs to Han Xiangjian by using her duties as the queen.

It seems that the Queen Mother most likely wanted her to deliver sterilization medicine to Han Xiangjian this time.

Ruyi was away, so this matter fell on her head. Is she so easy to fool? Chen Wanyin sneered in her heart.

When they arrived at the Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager did not lead the matter to Han Xiangjian right away. Since the Empress Dowager was not in a hurry, Chen Wanyin was not in a hurry either, so Chen Wanyin chatted with the Empress Dowager in a casual manner.

The chat didn't last long before the Queen Mother turned the topic to Han Xiangjian.

No matter how much she said about how much Hongli doted on Han Xiangjian, how good it would be when she had a child, or what threat it posed to her two brothers, Chen Wanyin remained indifferent and did not change her expression.

Chen Wanyin did not refute what the Queen Mother said, and no matter what she said, Chen Wanyin did not express her own thoughts.

Seeing that Chen Wanyin was so difficult to deal with, the Queen Mother was furious. She had thought that she was easy to persuade, but unexpectedly, it seemed that she had misjudged her.

Yes, Chen Wanyin was able to climb to the position of imperial concubine and gave birth to two princes safely. These two princes were also smart and clever, so their mother must not be a stupid person.

How could she possibly use such a person?

Seeing that her goal had not been achieved, the empress dowager lost interest in chatting with Chen Wanyin and asked her to leave the Cining Palace.

After returning to the palace, Chen Wanyin drank a glass of water and was able to suppress the anger in her heart.

Since the Queen Mother dared to plot against her, even though she failed, she didn't want to let her go. It was useless to tell Hongli about this. Could Hongli punish the Queen Mother for her? Impossible. No matter what, Hongli would not do anything to the Queen Mother. It would be better for her to do it directly.

So, after she finished talking to the Queen Mother and went out, she put something in her incense burner when no one was paying attention.

This little bit of stuff wasn't enough to kill her, it would just make her feel uncomfortable for a while.

Don't think that you can use her at will just because she is the Queen Mother.

Han Xiangjian had no idea that the Queen Mother had asked her to drink sterilization drugs. If she knew, she might have thanked the Queen Mother.

For Han Xiangjian, being forced to stay in the palace and serve a man she hated was already a life worse than death. If it weren't for the people of the Han tribe, she would have gone to see Han Qi long ago. She would never be pregnant with the blood of a man she hated.

But she asked the imperial physician if there was any way to avoid having children. Even if the imperial physician knew, he did not dare to tell her, for fear that Hongli would punish him, so he ran away in fear.

The imperial physician refused to tell her, so Han Xiangjian could only find a solution on her own.

But she had no one to rely on here and was unfamiliar with the place, so how could she get sterilization drugs?

At this time, the sick empress dowager had not given up the idea of ​​making Han Xiangjian drink the sterilization medicine. Upon hearing the news, she no longer cared about using other people, and immediately asked someone to boil a bowl of sterilization medicine and sent it to Baoyue Tower when no one was around.

When Han Xiang saw this, she didn't ask who sent it and drank it without hesitation.

That night after drinking it, Han Xiangjian was so weak that she could only lie in bed.

Hongli was furious in Han Xiangjian's palace, scolding the palace maids and eunuchs in Baoyue Tower for not taking good care of Han Xiangjian, as well as the imperial physician for his incompetence. He also asked people to investigate who had brought the sterilization drug to Han Xiangjian.

In short, everyone present, except Han Xiangjian, was the target of his anger.

Han Xiangjian, who was lying on the bed, naturally heard the noise. She said weakly, "I drank the sterilization medicine voluntarily. You don't have to blame anyone."

Hongli heard the noise, walked to the bed, and held Han Xiangjian's cold hand: "You are awake, are you feeling unwell? Don't worry, I will let the imperial physician heal you."

Han Xiangjian pulled out the hand that was held by Hongli, looked up, and said again: "I drank the sterilization medicine voluntarily. I don't want to have your child. Don't waste your energy on me."

"Why? Have I not treated you well? Why do you not want to have my child?" Hongli asked.

But Han Xiangjian no longer wanted to talk to him, so she closed her eyes.

Hongli's chest heaved violently because of Han Xiangjian's unwillingness to breathe, but he was afraid of disturbing her rest, so he returned to the Yangxin Palace angrily again.

But for the woman he had finally gotten, even though she didn't want to have his child, he couldn't give up now.

He was angry for a while, and then urged people to find out who sent the sterilization drugs to Baoyue Building.

If he knew about this, he would never let it go.

But the Empress Dowager had been rooted in the harem for many years, so how could she not have someone to rely on? As expected, Hongli did not find out much this time, and Hongli did not suspect the Empress Dowager, so he could only feel helpless and furious.

When Chen Wanyin heard that Han Xiangjian had no chance of being pregnant, she sneered in her heart. See, the Queen Mother could achieve her goal without anyone knowing, but she insisted on dragging someone into it in a roundabout way and making him bear Hongli's wrath. She was really vicious.

Suddenly, Chen Wanyin felt that she had given too little medicine. Oh, she regretted it so much.

. . . . .

After taking this bowl of pregnancy-protecting medicine, the Empress Dowager was finally relieved. She no longer had to worry about Han Xiangjian giving birth to a prince of the Han family's bloodline, which would threaten the Qing Dynasty.

The concubines in the six palaces also reduced their jealousy and resentment towards Han Xiangjian. No matter how favored she was, if she couldn't give birth to a child, what hope was there for her in the future?

There were also some people who laughed at her behind her back, saying that it was such a blessing to be favored by the emperor, and they really couldn't understand why she didn't appreciate her blessing.

What is honey to one may be poison to another. This must be how it feels.

But Hongli was not a man with a long-lasting love. He was attracted by Han Xiangjian's appearance from the beginning, but he couldn't get her, so he was worried about her day and night and wanted to get her.

Now that she had it, Hongli had not been doting on her for long before the incident of her drinking sterilization medicine happened. Moreover, Han Xiangjian had never been in a good mood towards him and even refused to cooperate with him in bed. Gradually, Hongli lost the novelty of it and came to Baoyue Tower less frequently.

Slowly, he fell into the arms of other beauties again.

Everyone sighed at this. They had thought that Hongli had put in so much effort and he would be able to favor Han Xiangjian for a long time, but they didn't expect it to be nothing more than this.

How heartless!
