Chapter 73 The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices should not conceal his illness from seek
Shen Zhiyi was afraid that she might have seen wrong, so she lowered her head and secretly rubbed her eyes hard.
I think it's the wife of the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices who wants a divorce. How come the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices had already prepared the divorce papers?
Could it be that the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices has become disheartened and has therefore prepared a divorce agreement in advance?
After making all sorts of guesses, Shen Zhiyi suddenly tapped her head.
"Am I crazy? I could have just looked it up and seen what was going on, why did I have to guess?"
Upon hearing this, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices once again said he wanted to take his leave.
The man was stopped by the old emperor once again.
"Why are you leaving? I haven't finished speaking yet."
Seeing the old emperor's stern face, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices wished he could cry on the spot.
I see. I see.
Shen Zhiyi suddenly realized.
That Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices is a despicable person!
The hearts of the court officials and the old emperor present skipped a beat. Just a moment ago they were pitying the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, how come he's being called a scoundrel now?
[Everyone says one should not covet a friend's wife. I was wondering why this Mr. Tianya was so despicable as to seduce his own friend's wife. It turns out you, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, were behind it.]
[But Mr. Tianya is really unethical, he's no good. How could you agree to something like that???]
【Two bastards!!!】
Shen Zhiyi stood aside, fuming, while the others looked at the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices in shock.
The old emperor lowered his voice, not understanding.
"What kind of move is this? So generous?"
Pushing his wife to his best friend?
He's either a bit cuckolded, or he's a bit cuckolded.
Court officials who usually have close ties with the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices should quickly distance themselves from him.
Even from a distance, he didn't forget to say, "We have morals. Although we appreciate beauty, we would never covet our colleagues' wives."
A concubine might be tempted, but a wife is absolutely out of the question.
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices gritted his teeth, realizing that he had made a terrible mistake by coming here today.
"Your Majesty, I have a difficult matter to discuss."
The old emperor disapproved, saying, "Whatever your unspeakable difficulties are unimportant; what you're doing is simply immoral."
This incident led the old emperor to reassess his opinion of the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
This person is morally deficient and is not suitable to serve as the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
"Your Majesty, I truly have something difficult to say!"
[The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices and his wife have been married for three years. They always said their relationship was good, but this is what happened?]
[Just because you haven't had a child in three years, you want a divorce?]
However, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices wanted to maintain his good reputation and was unwilling to initiate the divorce himself, so he wanted his wife to do it. Therefore, he came up with a terrible idea: to have his friend seduce his wife.
[The other party has someone else, so he, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, can justifiably propose a divorce, and the outsiders will even sympathize with him. What kind of nonsense is this?]
Shen Zhiyi's hands were trembling with anger.
The old emperor pointed a finger at the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices: "He is indeed a worthless scoundrel."
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices said aggrievedly, “Your Majesty, continuing the family line is a very important matter. I love my wife dearly, but we can’t live our whole lives without children.”
The old emperor didn't believe him at all. After sitting back on the dragon throne, he asked a question as if it were a casual remark.
"I recall that the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices took a few concubines a few days ago?"
[Wow, the old emperor is really well-informed. He has indeed taken a few concubines, but he takes quite a few every year.]
So, with so many women in the inner quarters and none of them pregnant, why can't the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices suspect that the problem lies with himself?
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices felt his heart sink.
how can that be possible!
It must be those women's problem, how could it be his problem?
If this batch of women isn't good enough, then bring in a new batch.
He refused to believe that he couldn't find a woman who could bear him children.
[This guy seems to be getting close to a girl who sells pork in the East Market lately...]
[You scumbag! That girl—no, that lady—is already married and has four or five kids!]
Shen Zhiyi was speechless. She seemed to understand why the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices had gone to contact that married woman.
I'm so desperate for my child.
[You're sick. Instead of wasting your time tormenting women, you should go see a doctor and get yourself checked out.]
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices was so angry that his eyes turned red.
This court attendant is talking nonsense.
The old emperor harbored a faint, wicked thought.
"You have all worked tirelessly for Daye this year, and your health may have suffered from overwork to some extent. Well then, Chen Decai!"
"Your Majesty?"
"Have someone summon the imperial physicians to check their pulses and examine their health. These are the pillars of Da Ye; their health cannot be compromised."
"Here."
With an barely suppressed smile, Chen Decai ordered the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy to be brought in.
One or two of the civil and military officials present wore expressions of schadenfreude.
the man.
They generally won't admit that they're incapable.
As men, they understand men so well.
The old emperor was too shrewd, so he simply stepped in to help the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
[This old emperor is truly my darling! How did you know? I also want to know if it's really the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices' fault, although I think it's highly likely.]
Soon, the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Academy filed in, one after another, each taking the pulse of a minister.
Shen Zhiyi was taking notes while also keeping an eye on the movements of the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
The scene became somewhat eerie for a moment.
Because everyone was turning their heads to look in the direction of the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.
The imperial physician who had taken the pulse of the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices withdrew his hand and looked hesitantly at the old emperor.
The old emperor laughed and said, "We are all family, so please speak freely."
"Your Majesty, the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic records that there are nine diseases that cause a man to be unable to have children."
What is this? I don't understand.
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices interrupted the imperial physician impatiently and asked, "Where is the woman?"
The imperial physician glanced at the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices and began to explain the nine diseases: "The nine diseases of men are: cold semen, thin semen, weak qi, excessive phlegm... inability to ejaculate."
"Therefore, I suggest that the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices improve his diet and reduce sexual activity. I will write a prescription for him later. If he drinks the medicine according to the prescription, he will gradually improve and will have offspring sooner or later."
[Hahaha, I get it, it's just that the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices isn't good enough.]
The Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices' face turned green and then red.
He was surrounded by colleagues who were suppressing their laughter.
"Imperial Physician, are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
"There's no mistake." The imperial physician was displeased: "Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, everyone has their own expertise. My achievements in medicine are no less than your achievements in sacrifices. Please trust me and do not avoid seeking medical help."
"A true man should be open and honest."
"If it works, it works; if it doesn't, then we'll change it."
