Chapter 704: Chapter 704: If You Can’t Be The Emperor, Be The Emperor’s Mother
“Unable to give birth?”
This answer was beyond Li Hongyuan’s expectation, “Why can’t you give birth?”
“According to Yu Shengshou, if I have a child, there’s a possibility of my leg bone breaking again, and it may never heal.”
Li Hongyuan frowned, “What does that have to do with your bones and giving birth?”
“Have you ever heard of the difference between a young girl and a young woman?”
“Age?”
“It’s the difference between having a child and not having a child!” Jiang Ning said impatiently, “Generally speaking, after giving birth, a woman’s body will change more or less, and she won’t be as slim as when she was a girl. Do you know why?”
“Because they gain weight.”
“Yes, that’s one reason. But many people don’t gain much weight and still can’t return to their girlhood appearance. Why is that?”
“Why?”
“Because giving birth does affect the bones!” Jiang Ning stood up, gesturing at her waist and hips, “The stomach being stretched so much, it has no impact on the bones? Such a big child is born downwards, the pelvis is stretched open! Maybe you don’t know, but many won’s feet beco larger after giving birth. So even grow taller.”
“…I really didn’t know this.”
Li Hongyuan shook his head honestly, then glanced at her feet, “Did your feet get bigger? No wonder you always need new shoes. Your height doesn’t seem to have changed, though, you’re still so short.”
Jiang Ning: “…That’s not the point.”
She has lots of shoes if nothing else.
But it’s not because her feet have gotten bigger.
However, all these aren’t important.
What’s important is that the potential impact of having a child is sothing she absolutely cannot accept.
She can’t possibly take the risk for Li Hongyuan, or anyone’s offspring.
Li Hongyuan said, “I’ll ask Yu Shengshou about this matter.”
“Don’t you trust ?”
“No, I just want to be cautious.”
“Do you really want to have a child with ?”
“Not really. Just having Wenzan is enough.”
Li Hongyuan said calmly, “In fact, even if my Emperor Father passes away in the future and I beco the emperor, I’m not necessarily going to pass the Imperial Throne to Wenzan.”
“Oh?”
“Xiaoqian is the emperor’s eldest grandson, he can inherit the Imperial Throne too.”
“The emperor’s eldest grandson isn’t the Crown Prince.”
According to the rules, the Crown Prince is the legitimate heir, and so is the Crown Prince’s first-born child.
But the emperor’s eldest grandson and emperor’s eldest son are actually the sa concept, which may sound very honorable, but it just ans the first grandson of the emperor, without any other aning.
As for Li Hongyuan’s idea, Jiang Ning’s thoughts were, she couldn’t accept it.
If Li Hongyuan wants to pass the throne to Li Tingqian, why should she bother?
Her ultimate goal is to beco the Empress Dowager and be above everyone else!
Although Xiaoqian loves and relies on her, he only calls her Aunt, not mother. If he ascends the throne, Wenzan would only be a Prince, and she might at most beco a Grand Concubine.
Jiang Ning remained silent.
Li Hongyuan smiled, “You don’t seem to agree with my idea.”
“What do you think, Your Highness?”
Jiang Ning put down her spoon, “You should still rember my purpose for marrying you, right?”
She doesn’t like fighting and killing, but she dislikes even more being fought and killed by others.
She doesn’t have a Buddhist mindset.
She wants to hold her fate in her own hands.
The only possibility is to beco the most powerful person in the world.
If she can’t be empress, she’ll be the emperor’s mother.
