Chapter 691: Bearing the Pain for Her Son

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Liu Sanniang looked at Hu Yu and said softly, “She will die.”

...

Xia Hongjin had lived with the cold for decades and was used to it, but it would be too great a pain for Consort Jin to bear.

Hu Yu’s eyes turned red. “A life for a life. Only a mother would do such a silly thing. I miss my mother so much.”

Hu Yu felt down. Consort Shu reminded her of her mother.

Liu Yuanyuan frowned and said, “If you can cultivate well, you won’t let your mother down. However, if you neglect your cultivation in the human world, hehehe… your mother will be disappointed.”

Hu Yu glared at Liu Yuanyuan and said furiously, “Liu Yuanyuan, if you don’t speak, no one will treat you as a mute!”

Liu Yuanyuan snorted and looked away.

She could not understand these human feelings. Even if she knew these feelings, she would not be touched by them.

On the other hand, foxes were sentimental. If Hu Yu could not abandon feelings, her path of cultivation would be filled with obstacles.

Liu Yuanyuan turned around and left. Hu Yu followed her angrily. “You cold-blooded snake. Don’t speak if you are not asked to next time!”

Liu Yuanyuan looked at Hu Yu coldly. “Boring.”

Liu Sanniang was already used to them bickering.

General Black lay beside her. Time passed quickly as Liu Sanniang rubbed General Black absent-mindedly.

Chu Yan brought out a stack of red bean cakes from the kitchen and made a pot of tea for Liu Sanniang. Liu Sanniang took one and ate it. “It’s delicious.”

Chu Yan’s eyes were gentle. “Eat it all.”

Liu Sanniang nodded and drank the tea as she ate.

She had given Consort Shu a choice. If Consort Shu was not determined enough, she would naturally not be able to transfer the coldness to her from her son.

It was not that easy for her to suffer for her son.

Consort Shu and Xia Hongjin returned to the palace. Consort Shu sent Xia Hongjin back to his room and helped him lie on the bed.

Xia Hongjin’s face was pale. “Mother, go and drink some ginseng soup to warm up.”

His body was like an ice cube. Holding an ice cube for such a long time, his mother must be extremely cold.

There were tears in Consort Shu’s eyes. “Hongjin, I’m fine. Sleep well. I want to take a good look at you.”

Xia Hongjin wanted to hold on a little longer, but his eyelids were too heavy. He couldn’t even open his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

Consort Shu shed tears in silence. Her son was becoming more and more like an ice statue, emitting a cold aura. Her heart was heavy. Of course, she was determined to help her son recover.

After a while, Consort Shu left. The palace servants lowered their heads and sent her off respectfully. Consort Shu stopped in her tracks and said coldly, “Serve Second Prince well. If you neglect him, I won’t let you off.”

The palace servants hurriedly knelt down and replied, “Your Highness, don’t worry. We will definitely serve Second Prince well.”

Consort Shu left without looking back. When she returned to the Jade Palace, she asked the palace maid to send a message to invite Xia Bingguang over.

Consort Shu prepared a table full of good dishes and waited for Xia Bingguang to arrive.

Night fell bit by bit. After Xia Bingguang finished handling the court affairs, he went to the Jade Palace. Xia Bingguang walked into the palace and realized that it had been meticulously decorated. He had mixed feelings.

Consort Shu was dressed up. She was no longer as beautiful as when she was young. There were also fine wrinkles on her face that could not be concealed, and there was a hint of tiredness in her eyes.

Seeing Xia Bingguang, Consort Shu slowly stood up and bowed. “Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Xia Bingguang helped her up gently. “There’s no need for formality.”

The two of them sat down. Consort Shu dismissed the palace maids. Xia Bingguang also waved his hand and asked the eunuchs to leave. Consort Shu had something to tell him, so he naturally had to give her some space.

Consort Shu smiled gently. “Thank you for being so considerate, Your Majesty.”

Xia Bingguang also smiled. “If you have anything to say, say it. There’s no one around now. No matter what you say, only you and I know.”

Consort Shu looked at Xia Bingguang with tears in her eyes. “Your Majesty, I brought Hongjin to see a doctor today.”

Xia Bingguang was stunned. “What did the doctor say? How’s Hongjin doing?”

Among his sons, he felt most guilty towards Xia Hongjin.

He was bedridden all year round and was not in good health. He did not even know what it felt like to bask in the sun. Just thinking about it made Xia Bingguang feel bad.

Tears streamed down Consort Shu’s face. She pursed her lips and said softly, “I went to see Miss Liu today and asked her to help treat Hongjin’s illness.”

Xia Bingguang quickly asked, “How is it? Can it be cured? If you need any medicine, I will find it for you.”

Consort Shu looked at Xia Bingguang and said seriously, “A medicine is needed, but it’s extremely difficult to find. Other than me, no one else can find it.”

Xia Bingguang frowned. What kind of medicine was this? Why was it so difficult to find?

Consort Shu said word by word, “This medicine is my heart.”

Xia Bingguang was so shocked that he could not speak. He looked at Consort Shu’s teary face and firm eyes. The desire to save her son was almost overflowing.

Xia Bingguang’s heart was heavy.

Consort Shu smiled. “Your Majesty, I’ve been in the palace for so many years, but I failed, as a wife, to bear you more children. I can’t even protect the only son I have.”

“I can save Hongjing. I’m willing to bear the pain for him. It’s just that Hongjing will be a motherless child in the future.”

Consort Shu looked at Xia Bingguang as tears fell drop by drop.

Xia Bingguang watched as Consort Shu cried and couldn’t help but go forward to hug her. “Don’t worry. He still has a father.”

Consort Shu gently grabbed Xia Bingguang’s clothes. “Hongjin has been living like a caged bird in his life. If he can recover, I don’t want him to be trapped here. I hope that Hongjin can be free and travel around the world to see the good sceneries of the Xia Dynasty. I invited you here because I hope that you can give Hongjin a fief so that he has somewhere to fall back on.”

“I know. This request is unreasonable. Hongjin hasn’t done anything meritorious, so giving him a fief will cause dissents in the imperial court. Even if I can’t wait until the day he makes a name for himself, I believe he can.”

Consort Shu said softly, every word touching Xia Bingguang’s heart..
