Have You Written Your Will Today?-Chapter 513 - 503: Kidney Deficiency

Shengjing recently, two scandals have erupted.

Meanwhile, in Sui Courtyard, Shen Hua slept profoundly, oblivious to the world around her.

Often when Cui Yun donned his official clothes for early court, Shen Hua was still deep asleep. When Cui Yun returned from the Ministry of Justice, Shen Hua did not even rise from her bed, her partially open neckline revealing a neck riddled with red marks.

To such matters, he seemed tirelessly devoted. Shen Hua too, had tasted the sweetness in their warmth, no longer resistant.

But everything changed after she faintly asked a single question.

—Every two days, and multiple times each session, going on for hours. Aren’t you afraid of depleting your kidneys?

With just this one sentence, Shen Hua hadn’t left the house for three days, for three entire days.

Each night tormented by Cui Yun’s tireless passions. Thankfully, she didn’t have to manage the household affairs, and the Cui family lacked strict household rules.

But Shen Hua couldn’t fathom where Cui Yun’s boundless energy came from.

Even so, she learned of this matter through something Cui Rong, fresh from the Imperial College, mentioned.

It concerned the Fifth Princess, Ji Shimin.

"Hey, did you know Ji Shimin is pregnant? When Mrs. Wei heard this, she flew into a tremendous rage, causing an uproar. She went to the Imperial Palace intending to meet the Empress, but midway, a stern-faced Wei Xiheng dragged her back,"

Shen Hua’s dull eyes brightened, finding a comfortable posture.

"What was she making a fuss about?"

Before Cui Rong could answer, the young servant girl couldn’t suppress her contempt: "Originally, Ji Shimin and the Heir of Duke Chengbo had a fling, yet the Wei Family never made a fuss. They shamelessly accepted the situation, hoping to gain some benefits and the protection of the Chengbo Marquis Mansion. It proves that every action has its consequence; if karma is discussed, none in this bunch is decent."

Suddenly, she thought of something and sat up a little straighter.

Wei Xiheng is incapable of having children, and in this lifetime, he will never have offspring; in this sense, Ji Shimin also resolved an urgent problem.

It is indeed a meritorious achievement!

"The wife is sent away, what does it matter if the child isn’t his biologically? This time the Wei Family might consider this as having a successor. It also saves them the trouble of adopting from distant relatives."

Not quite right.

Shen Hua almost forgot about the Chengbo Marquis Mansion.

She glanced at the sky. At this time, if it were a usual day, Cui Yun should have returned. Thinking this, Shen Hua’s legs trembled with weakness.

She’s been demanded too strenuously.

If it continued like this, it would be unbearable.

Suddenly, under the anticipatory gaze of Cui Rong, she changed the topic.

"What did you study today at the Imperial College?"

"Ah?" Cui Rong, caught in the joy of sharing, was momentarily stunned.

Shen Hua watched her, assuming the attitude of a senior: "I sent you to study, and your mind is preoccupied with other matters?"

"At least be mindful, the music teacher specially arranged for you to sit in front of Young Master Zhou from the Zhou Family during class."

Cui Rong felt Shen Hua was becoming increasingly unreasonable, and walked out of the room in a huff.

As soon as she left, she was unaware of the unrestrained cheer that burst forth from Shen Hua inside the room. Without applying makeup and in a flash, the servant girl who loved beauty hastily changed into a skirt,

"Quick, where’s Yingwu? Prepare the horse, I need to go out."

Cui Rong, who had turned halfway down the road and came back, overheated, forgot to give Shen Hua the sugar-roasted chestnuts she bought.

But when she returned, seeing the empty room,

Fury!

"So it turns out, she was sending me away!"

"And my Second Aunt too, utterly shameless!"

"With such a person, how can I expect her to give birth to obedient siblings?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The air seemed unusually refreshing. Shen Hua pulled aside the cloth curtain, looking out onto the street with a clear, refreshed spirit.

"Madam, are you going to the Wei Family?"

Shen Hua sneered: "The Wei Family’s place is just a small broken spot, I certainly won’t go there."

She is not someone who would climb just any roof.

Just as the two left, the sound of horse hooves came from the opposite direction. Cui Yun returned from the Ministry of Justice, exuding a chilling aura.

Ji Qing followed behind, holding a stack of case files that Cui Yun had to deal with even overnight. If it weren’t for thinking of Shen Hua, he would have stayed at the Ministry of Justice as usual.

Upon returning to the courtyard, Cui Yun did not see anyone.

"Where is she?"

Ji Xin bowed slightly: "Madam just left not long ago."

She cautiously glanced at Cui Yun: "She also let the servant pass on a message."

"Speak."

Cui Rong remembered the words she pryed from Ji Xin and sneered.

"She said she’s staying over at the Minister of Justice Mansion tonight. Tell Second Uncle to stay where it’s cool."

————

Shen Hua had just arrived and was surprised to see Le Jia sitting on the roof, her eyes and brows brimming with charm. As she approached, she heard Le Jia cooing.

"I knew you would mostly be here. Have you had dinner? I brought roasted chicken, made by hand."

Listening made Shen Hua’s half-body melt: "Don’t talk to me in that tone."

As the girl handed her the cut meat, she leaned in and took a bite, leaving a fragrant taste in her mouth. She playfully remarked: "This must drain Ji Ge."

This earned Le Jia a beating.

Then, she heard Shen Hua humbly asking for advice.

"What does he eat to nourish himself?"

Le Jia looked at Shen Hua with a different expression.

Just about to speak, she heard intense arguing below.

The girl took out a tile and looked down.

"You disagree?"

Duchess Chengbo, adorned in gold and silver, had a fierce smirk: "You continue covert exchanges with those filthy things, everyone can have you, why wouldn’t you agree?"

Princess You Ning across her, however, did not show a hint of hysteria, only using a disdainful look reserved for the dirty and cheap aimed at Duchess Chengbo.

"Dare you take these words and speak them before Empress Dowager herself?"

"If you think I’m unworthy as your son’s wife, you might as well go to the official family and have me divorced from your son. Initially marrying into Chengbo Marquis Mansion, I was unwilling and reluctant, and now, I’m certainly not clinging to your family unwillingly."

Princess You Ning sneered. She really didn’t know from where Duchess Chengbo got the face to yell at her like this.

Complaining of her impropriety, yet don’t forget her precious son who continuously engages in liaisons with another man’s wife and even sired a bastard!

Duchess Chengbo was so angry she nearly fainted.

"Hu Jianping." Princess You Ning looked towards the man always behind Duchess Chengbo.

This was Shen Hua’s first time seeing the Heir of Duke Chengbo.

His features were the type easily forgotten in a crowd, about as tall as his mother, and he didn’t exactly stand upright. Presently, he had his hands in his pockets.

Despite Princess You Ning calling him, he did not respond.

"You and I are six of one, half a dozen of the other. I openly keep men, you love doing sneaky things. I don’t care how you philander outside, but at least clean your mouth."

"And don’t skimp on spending for birth control pills!"

Princess You Ning: "If I were like you, fearing not three, surely I’d have five by now."

Having said this, she paid no heed to how ugly the mother and son looked. She walked straight out, and even as she crossed the threshold, she threw down a sentence.

"For such trifles in the future, don’t come looking for me; how disgusting."

Enraged, Duchess Chengbo picked up a porcelain cup and smashed it to the ground.

"Absolutely lawless and unreasonable!"

Hu Jianping: "This cheap woman is just like this, too high-headed to look at anyone else. Don’t talk about her, it’s pointless anger. Mama, you have to help your son settle things with Ji Shimin, do we want this child or not! If not, while the month is still early, just feed her some abortion pills."
