“Empress, according to this servant’s knowledge, Consort Shu prepared a batch of tonics for Consort Kang, so she took three months of her allowance in advance.”
“Advance allowance? When did the Prime Minister become so poor? Has anything major happened in the Prime Minister’s Residence recently?” the Empress asked.
“Other than hearing that Seventh Young Master Su was struck by lightning, I haven’t heard anything else.”
“But Seventh Su wasn’t seriously injured. How could it affect the Su family’s wealth?” The Empress paused for a moment before continuing, “Investigate this, but be careful in case it’s a trap.”
“Yes.” At this point, Nanny Yu whispered, “I have received reliable news that Consort Rui is really pregnant, and it’s almost been three months.”
When the Empress heard this, jealousy flashed in her eyes. Her son was the eldest and the first to get married.
But five to six years had passed, and neither the princess consort nor the little vixens under her were pregnant.
On the contrary, the third and fourth princes had children one after another.

In addition, there hadn’t been a single child in the residence these past few years, so she had always thought that the problem was His Highness. This was also why she couldn’t be bothered to fight for his attention.
Today was the perfect opportunity to pass the news of His Highness’s failure to the Empress so she wouldn’t have to deal with her constant disdain.
The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop; only the sound of everyone’s breathing could be heard. At the same time, the atmosphere was getting heavy.
The concubines felt their legs go soft.
A moment later, Imperial Physician Chen stopped checking and did not reply. Instead, he called a concubine over.
After passing them one by one, Imperial Physician Chen’s legs went soft, and he kneeled and said, “Empress, all the womenfolk in the residence of Prince Hui have been sterilized, so...”
After saying that, he directly kowtowed to the ground and dared not even raise his head.
“What? What did you just say? Say it again?” The Empress asked in disbelief..
