My Wife is a Psychic

138 The Fate Is Broken

Jiang Xi sighed softly. In fact, if the original owner had not died, she would have been fated with Dong Sheng. However, that fate had been broken now. Her fate had already fallen into Zhao Ruifeng’s hands. Only Zhao Ruifeng’s fate could match hers. They could only be with each other, no one else!

In the palace, the empress held Zhao Panpan’s hand, and the two of them were as close as mother and daughter.

“Go back and prepare for the concubine selection. You don’t have to worry about matters in the palace. The emperor and I are both satisfied with you.” The empress comforted Zhao Panpan in a gentle voice, and only after Zhao Panpan’s face was filled with smiles did she leave in relief.

“The empress likes Miss Panpan so much that she can’t bear to see Miss Panpan leave. When Miss Panpan enters the palace, she will be a real daughter-in-law. At that time, the empress can keep her for as many days as she wants.” The nanny pinched the empress’s shoulder. Her nose twitched, and she frowned slightly. She turned around and had the palace maid light the incense.

Only then did the empress’s face reveal a sincere smile. “It’s a pity that Panpan is only the crown prince’s concubine. If only she could give birth to a child…” The empress did not finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant. The child born by the concubine could not be the crown prince, nor could he be the emperor.

“Your Majesty, I heard that the future crown prince’s wife’s health is getting worse and worse. I don’t know if she can make it to the day of the wedding,” the nanny said softly.

The empress’s eyes brightened. Back then, the crown princess had been handpicked by the emperor, and she had not been able to react in time.

“Find a female Imperial physician to take a look. With the crown princess’ sickly body, how can she give birth to children for the crown prince? Oh, take the ginseng that the emperor gave me to her and find a smart person to take a look at her,” the empress said unhurriedly. As soon as she finished, the emperor, who had just walked out of the hall, praised, “The empress is still the most considerate. I was worried about this matter these few days and you thought of it first.”

The empress quickly stood up, and all the palace maids and eunuchs in the room knelt on the ground. The nanny glanced at the palace maid who was responsible for reporting the news. The palace maid outside the hall trembled. It was the emperor who had stopped her from reporting.

“The emperor is already very tired from working on state affairs. I will do as many of these small things as I can. The matter of the crown prince and the crown princess is not a small matter. If she is pregnant in the future and she is not healthy, I’m afraid it will affect the child.” The empress poured tea for the emperor, and the palace maids and eunuchs behind her all left.

The emperor furrowed his brows. He had only a few children to begin with. If the crown prince married a sickly wife, it would be even more difficult for the royal family to have children.

“Have the imperial physicians take turns to take a look and see how the crown princess’ body is.” The emperor was also somewhat dissatisfied. If the crown princess was really beyond cure, she would probably not be able to sit in the position of the crown princess in the future.

“Emperor, try this piece of snack. It was sent in by Panpan early in the morning. That child is really thoughtful. She usually sends a portion of everything she eats to the palace without stopping for ten years. Alas, it’s a pity that she didn’t have a good background.” The empress sighed. Although Zhao Panpan was the daughter of the Zhao family, Xiao Meili’s reputation was ruined when she came to Jing City. As Xiao Meili’s daughter, Zhao Panpan’s reputation was also not very good.

“Panpan is a good person.” The emperor paused and picked up a piece of dessert to eat. This taste was the same as the one she had sent to the imperial study. The emperor did not tell the empress that for the past two months, Zhao Panpan had been sending him a portion of dessert.

When the empress heard the emperor’s praise, she immediately smiled. “That child, Panpan, is devastatingly beautiful. If she were to marry into an ordinary family, it would really be a grievance for her. I really don’t know who would be so lucky to marry her. Sigh, if someone else were to marry her, I would really be reluctant,” The empress said with a smile. She had once asked the emperor to make Zhao Panpan the crown prince’s wife, but the emperor rejected her. At that time, the crown prince was still young, so she was not in a hurry. Who knew that the position of the crown prince’s wife would fall into someone else’s hands?

“Since you like her, then bring Panpan into the palace and let her live here,” the emperor said casually. He took a sip of tea and thought that since Panpan and the empress had such a close relationship, the two of them would get along very well in the future.

The empress thought that the emperor had agreed to Zhao Panpan becoming the crown prince’s concubine and was overjoyed. “Alright, I’ll definitely let Panpan spend more time with me. That child, Panpan, has a pure and kind heart. If she were to marry someone else, I’d be worried.”
