In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

This delicious treat is indeed packed with nutrients.

So much so that Gu Hanyuan felt a slight sense of fullness.

Moreover, beautiful women inevitably possess some degree of spiritual energy.

It is far superior to the filthy wine of this world.

Qi Fang was like that in the past, and so was Hesheli.

Perhaps because he was too comfortable, Gu Hanyuan's thoughts became somewhat scattered.

I inexplicably missed Qi Fang's lovely daughter, the little water spinach who would even share her food with him.

Xiao Kongxincai is the daughter of Wan Gui and Qi Fang.

Despite his many flaws, Wan Gui was blessed with a handsome appearance.

Qi Fang is a rare beauty and one of the female protagonists in "A Deadly Secret".

Therefore, the water spinach grows to be as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll.

She will surely grow up to be a stunning beauty.

Moreover, Xiao Kongxincai is quite close to Gu Hanyuan and always likes to stick by his side.

Sometimes when she cries, even Qi Fang can't soothe her. But as soon as Gu Hanyuan hugs her, she obediently sucks her fingers and stares at him.

Even if Gu Hanyuan wears a mask or not, Xiao Kongxincai can still recognize him.

Of course, the little water spinach also has its annoying moments; she often comes out to cause trouble when Gu Hanyuan wants to be intimate with Qi Fang.

Even though Xiao Kongxincai humbly gave up her meals, it still caused a lot of trouble.

Regardless, Gu Hanyuan still loved this adopted daughter very much.

Unfortunately, the small water spinach will take a long time to grow into a full-grown plant.

Gu Hanyuan was lost in thought, while Hesheli was already in a daze.

Hesheli, who was unable to raise her own son, was given the upper hand by Gu Hanyuan.

Women naturally experience strong maternal instincts when breastfeeding their children.

Unfortunately, romantic feelings between a man and a woman are also involved at this time.

This sense of disorientation caused Hesheli's delicate body to tremble, preventing her from landing on the ground.

I do not know how long it has been.

Gu Hanyuan's teasing words finally snapped Hesheli out of her daze.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty."

When Hesheli came to her senses, she was so ashamed that she almost cried.

She didn't even bother to tidy up her disheveled clothes.

With tears in her eyes, she said angrily:

"How could you do this?"

Gu Hanyuan feigned ignorance and asked:

"What do you mean, Your Majesty? I was only trying to help you out of kindness."

Hesheli was furious upon hearing this shameless statement.

He said with grief and indignation:

"Who asked for your help! You've ruined my reputation..."

"Has the Empress lost her virginity?"

Gu Hanyuan suddenly interrupted.

Hesheli's expression froze.

To be honest, she didn't really lose her virginity; at most, she was taken advantage of.

But that's not how it works.

Even if she didn't lose her virginity, she was still taken advantage of.

It's not like they're actually breastfeeding a child.

She hesitated for a moment, and the grief and indignation in her expression lessened somewhat.

But still, embarrassed and annoyed, he said:

"But my reputation..."

"Could this matter possibly get out?"

Her words were interrupted by Gu Hanyuan once again.

This kind of thing naturally couldn't be spread.

The palace maids and eunuchs had already been driven away by Hesheli.

They themselves will not publicize this matter.

Since no one knows, her reputation will naturally remain unharmed.

Hesheli's thoughts were momentarily stuck.

This matter seems quite serious, yet it also seems like a minor issue.

No matter what, these are all internal conflicts that need to be resolved.

Ultimately, it depends on how the parties involved perceive it.

The only difference is whether you laugh it off or act like you're going to die.

If someone is truly so fiercely independent, they might even consider it suicide.

However, such things are extremely rare.

Moreover, many women of this era did not truly believe that chastity was more important than life.

More often than not, they are oppressed by worldly morality.

Especially after the rise of the outdated Confucianism of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, which advocated "suppressing human nature while preserving heavenly principles."

It was then deliberately misinterpreted by those with ulterior motives, becoming a fig leaf to cover up the incompetence of the Southern Song Dynasty in history.

All the blame was placed on women.

This is when the oppression of women truly reached its peak.

Even Chen Yuanyuan, the protagonist of the famous story of "losing a crown for a beauty's sake," was a victim of it.

They blamed the fall of the country caused by Li Zicheng's stubbornness and arrogance on an innocent woman.

This illustrates the power of a writer's pen to kill without shedding blood.

As a foreign state, the development of Confucianism in the Qing Dynasty was not as extreme at this time.

Even Hesheli wouldn't act like she'd die just because she was taken advantage of.

Otherwise, she should have just run into a pillar and died back in the Imperial Study.

Although Hesheli felt that something was wrong.

But that momentary anger was calmed down.

Hesitantly, he whispered:

"Then you shouldn't treat me like this."

Gu Hanyuan did not immediately answer Hesheli's question.

He suddenly stepped forward and straightened her disheveled clothes, which she had momentarily forgotten due to her excitement.

Hesheli was greatly embarrassed by his gentle and methodical movements.

I could hear his caring voice in my ears.

"Your Majesty, be careful not to catch a cold."

However, this gentleness made her feel increasingly inexplicable.

My heart, which had finally calmed down, started racing again.

Gu Hanyuan gently stroked Hesheli's smooth, fair face and said softly:

"Let's just consider what happened as treatment for your bloating and pain."

Hesheli knew this was just an excuse.

But the truth is that her previous bloating and pain had completely disappeared, and she even felt an indescribable sense of comfort.

This is another one of Gu Hanyuan's doing.

The Hesheli clan had a very short lifespan in history.

This was during the last few years of her life.

Besides the excessive worry caused by the early death of her eldest son Chenghu, and the difficult childbirth that resulted in the birth of her second son Yinreng, it was also related to her underlying health conditions.
