Chapter 103: The Spice of Contraception
Shuangshuang was a little nervous and began to worry that things were not to his liking.
"Isn't it delicious? After leaving it for so long, it must have tasted off. ”
Both snatched the spoon in Shen Mushi's hand, and after tasting it, he frowned and said in annoyance: "Ah! It's really tasteless! I'll cook another bowl for you. ”
As soon as Shuangshuang's voice fell, he stood up and was about to walk out.
Shen Mushi put his arms around Shuangshuang's waist and pressed her on his lap, and said in a dumb voice: "No, it's delicious, Shuangshuang, you treat me so well......"
But a very ordinary sentence made both of them blush.
She pursed her lips a little unnaturally, and replied to him with a sneer: "You treat me very well......"
"Go back to the door on the second day of the Lunar New Year, tomorrow, let's go back to Lu's house."
Shen Mushi put down the spoon, rubbed his hair, and said softly.
"Really?"
Shuangshuang looked surprised and asked in disbelief.
But she immediately thought that he had just gone to Xiao's house, so didn't he also take Xiao Nuoxue back to the door......
Is it just a routine? I still have to appease myself to say this deliberately........
When they both looked at Shen Mu hesitantly, the flame of joy was extinguished, and the whole person was like a frosted eggplant, wilting all of a sudden.
Shen Mushi knew what her little head was thinking as soon as he saw Shuangshuang's expression, and he pinched her little nose dotingly:
"Unlike going to Xiao's house to act, tomorrow is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it is a real return."
"Oh."
Shuangshuang scratched the back of his head with some weakness.
Remembering that my father and mother didn't know about it at all, a trace of anxiety came to my face:
"But I didn't let my dad inform them, what should I do? It's all the time now, and my father and mother have already gone to bed. ”
"Don't worry, it's already arranged."
Shen Mushi gently hugged her hands, rubbing against her white and tender neck, desperately absorbing the unique fragrance on her body.
"When was it arranged?"
Both of them were tickled by the man's lips and shrunk their necks.
A little puzzled: Lu Yi didn't mention this to her.
"The twenty-eighth day of the lunar month." Shen Mushi smiled.
The 28th day of the lunar month?
Isn't that the day when Xiao Pinyan cut himself?
Shuangshuang was stunned, and wanted to ask why.
Shen Mushi didn't want to answer this question anymore, so he picked her up and walked to the dormitory, and said while blowing out the candle flame: "Sleep, I'm so tired today, I'll take you back to the door tomorrow." ”
"Oh, but you haven't washed yet, aren't you going back to Weiyang Palace?"
Both hugged Shen Mu's neck.
He has always washed up before going to bed, has a slight cleanliness habit, and today he made an exception to be sloppy, I'm afraid I'm really tired.
"But the concubine is thinking that the king is stinky and driving people away?"
Shen Mushi deliberately misinterpreted her meaning, and rubbed his head twice on her face: "Smoke you to death." ”
In an instant, an unfamiliar fragrance rushed into Shuangshuang's nostrils, it was not the peppermint fragrance she was familiar with.
"Hmm........."
Shuangshuang finally broke free from his embrace, raised his head and asked, "You changed the incense?" ”
"Hmm."
Shen Mushi walked to the bed and put them down, and responded lightly.
"I liked the mint taste before."
Shuangshuang took off their brocade shoes and climbed onto the bed, knelt on the bed and watched the man take off his robe and put it on the Nanmu Su hanger.
"That doesn't taste good." Shen Mushi lowered his head and spoke, not looking at his eyes.
"What's wrong? It smells cool and refreshing, and I want to use it too. ”
Both of them used osmanthus incense, and after a long time, they wanted to change the taste, and for a while, they also asked Ningyi to adjust the mint incense used by the prince, and wanted to keep it for their own use.
It's a pity that the secret recipe of this incense is hard to find, and even Ning Yi, who is a master of perfumery, has never been able to match the exact same taste as the prince.
"No! Do not use it. ”
Shen Mushi finally turned his head with a serious face.
"Why don't you let me use it? Is it because it's for the prince? ”
Shuangshuang looked puzzled and raised his head to question him.
Shen Mushi leaned over, held her cheeks with both hands, and said very solemnly: "Promise me, you will never use my mint spice." ”
"Unless you tell me why."
Both hugged Shen Mushi's waist and began to play tricks.
After a deep sigh, Shen Mushi sat back on the bed, looked at his eyes and opened his mouth with difficulty:
"In addition to mint, my mint incense also includes lingli, pomegranate seeds, and saffron, all of which are contraceptive drugs. This incense is not harmful to men, but if it is used by women for a long time, it will be difficult to conceive. ”
Both were horrified.
She knows the effect of saffron, in addition to the miraculous effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, it can also cause miscarriage in pregnant women.
His Highness was a man, and it was surprising that the sachet he wore was filled with medicine to prevent a woman from becoming pregnant.
No wonder, no wonder, no wonder Frost Servant Ji has served His Royal Highness for many years without pregnancy, presumably this is the key to this.
"When did you start using this incense? Why? Don't you like children? ”
There is also a trill in the double tone, which is obviously not relieved.
The women in the palace know that once they enter the palace, no matter how favored the child is, it is the most important thing to rely on.
Once the concubine has a child, her status is stable and the icing on the cake; If she is not favored, the mother will earn a place in the palace by virtue of her son's expensiveness and salted fish, even if she has no son, her daughter is good.
Your Highness is so frost-proof that the maid is pregnant, what does it mean?
Could it be that His Highness doesn't like Frost Waiter at all?
It's impossible!
Shuangshuang only felt a chill: His Royal Highness was extremely thoughtful, and while playing affectionate, he tried his best to deal with the person next to him......
Now it's the Frost Squire, if one day she turns against her, will she still have any chance of survival?
Shuangshuang was thinking nonsense, but Shen Mushi carefully observed her reaction, and cautiously explained:
"I started using it when I was about sixteen. There were a lot of women around me at the time, and I had to do this to be on the safe side. ”
"Don't you like them at all?"
Both looked at the man's handsome face, and suddenly found that he didn't know anything about it, extremely strange and distant.
The man he loves in front of him is affectionate and selfish.
"Before I met you, I didn't know what liking was."
Shen Mushi stretched out his palm to shake her hand.
Shuangshuang did not refuse, and obediently took his fingers, ten fingers clasped.
Even if His Highness is indirectly telling himself that he loves her.
But she still feels sorry for those women in her heart, but what can she do if she is sad herself?
The prince's concubine must be born by the crown princess, which is a palace rule and she has no way to put her beak.
Before, Concubine Xian said that she was blessed with a unique advantage and had an advantage, which may be referring to this matter.
There are mixed feelings in my heart, there is sympathy, there is joy, and there is a little disgust and self-loathing in the middle.
Shen Mushi stared at Shuangshuang's eyes tightly, eager to find out her inner thoughts, and let go of the worries in her heart when she saw that she did not reject herself.
It's not that he's cold-blooded, it's just that the situation is forcing him.
When he was just canonized as the crown prince, the courtiers sent beauties and treasures to try to win him over in order to cling to him.
At first he didn't care and was willing to give others a chance.
The court, it was originally the relationship between the fish helping the water and the water helping the fish. If he wants to ascend the throne in the future, these people are all for his use, since they take the initiative to send them to the door, how can he blindly refuse?
Therefore, whether it is a prince or a nobleman or a courtier official, as long as someone offers a beauty, he will not refuse, anyway, he just accepts it and puts it aside, he will not touch it, it is just a big deal to spend food.
It was only gradually that he began to realize that those women were not simple at all, and they were all carefully selected by the masters behind their scenes.
Some women even know martial arts, can use medicine, the ability is not small, he suffered a few losses and began to regret that he was too underestimated, but it was inconvenient to deal with it directly, so he had to use the jealous Xiaoshuang to deal with these women secretly, and at the same time strengthen his own precautions to prevent any woman from having the opportunity to get close, and arranged for Qianyan to concoct contraceptive spices, so as to effectively prevent those fine works.
As he expected, Xiaoshuang's means of attacking dissidents were extremely ruthless, and he successfully built a line of defense for him, and the courtiers only used the means of jealousy in the harem to constantly lose people, and they never thought that it was the prince who was operating in secret.
Over time, those who have ghosts in their hearts know that the prince has reached the point of lawlessness in favoring a frost maid, and if he sends a beauty to the prince again, the end of angering the prince will be to be a lowly person.
Those fine works are all daughters of the family, how can they be so humiliated, and no one has sent them to the East Palace since then.
It's not pretty, but it does block a lot of trouble for him.
Shen Mushi was upright and arrogant, and he never cared about other people's opinions, but at the moment, he was worried that Shuangshuang would dislike himself because of this.
"Bear birth to an heir for me, both."
Shen Mushi's voice was hoarse, not like a discussion, but like a request.
