In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!
Chapter 1279 - 1190: Qin Kongyang?

Chapter 1279: Chapter 1190: Qin Kongyang?

Feng Jiu was frantic with worry.

But when he actually saw his sister, his face immediately changed!

"Big sister, how could you... become like this?"

At this moment, Feng Xiyue’s face was ashen, her eyes sunken, her body had become nothing but skin and bones. Just a month ago when they had met, her big belly rounded with pregnancy, she smiled so sweetly and caressed the child in her womb with such tenderness.

How could the scene before him change so completely in the blink of an eye?

Feng Xiyue wrapped herself in a quilt, tightly covered without revealing a sliver of a gap, only half her face showing.

Seeing the shock in her brother’s eyes, a trace of sorrow flashed through hers.

She understood that her current state frightened him, but ever since she gave birth, her lochia had been constant and gushing, and carried a strange and indescribable foul odor.

Nanny Jiang discovered this and reported it, summoning the Imperial Physician for an examination.

The Imperial Physician sighed and shook his head repeatedly after examining her. Whatever he told Nanny Jiang, Feng Xiyue did not know, but from Nanny Jiang’s continuously red and tearful eyes and her abnormal behavior for several days, she understood that her condition was likely beyond hope.

"Jiu’er, to see you one more time makes me so happy, truly happy..." Her words were interlaced with tears, but in the end, she could say no more.

"Sister! What on earth happened to you? Tell me the truth!"

Feng Jiu was beyond caring about the differences between men and women, those so-called societal norms, and he lunged to Feng Xiyue’s side, "Oh, I know! Did Su Pan’er harm you? Sister, tell me, you have to tell me!"

"It’s not her, it’s not her, not her!"

Feng Xiyue shook her head in denial, her voice growing fainter, "Jiu’er, don’t speak nonsense. The Empress treats me well and His Majesty does too. Our Feng Family only has you as the sole descendant; you must carry on our Feng Family’s legacy. Understand?"

"Sister!"

Feng Jiu cried out hoarsely, also choking back tears.

Feng Xiyue’s tears finally fell as she smiled at her brother, "Jiu’er, your sister made a mistake. But because of that mistake, I had to commit countless other wrongs to try and make up for it. One error led to another. One wrong step led to another. Now, I can’t turn back, nor is there a way to turn back. But you, Jiu’er, you must promise your sister! In the future, you must marry a good wife and have many children to continue the lineage of our Feng Family. That way, even when meeting our parents below, I can face them with a smile."

"Nonsense, you’re speaking nonsense! You won’t be meeting them, big sister, you’re supposed to live a long, long life! Sister..."

Feng Jiu broke down in tears.

He could never have imagined that things would turn out this way.

"Everyone dies, and your sister is no exception."

Feng Xiyue’s gaze was particularly blurred, her look distant, "Jiu’er, do you know? This childbirth damaged my body, and the lochia is unclean. The Imperial Physician said, it’s probably incurable. Right now, the only thing to do is use precious medicines to sustain my life. If one day I truly pass away, you..."

"Don’t say it anymore! Sister, how can this be, we promised that we would..."

Feng Jiu couldn’t comprehend the things Feng Xiyue was talking about.

He couldn’t bear the thought of watching his only sister leave him forever, eyes wide open. His heart felt even worse.

"Sister, rest assured! As soon as Jiu leaves, I will immediately seek out an eminent doctor for you. I will certainly cure you. You are the only relative I have in this world!"

"Silly child. You don’t only have me, you also have my son; he’s your nephew too."

Feng Xiyue shook her head with difficulty, changing the subject, "Jiu, do you want to see my son? He has grown a lot, drinking a great deal of milk before he’s full. When he’s hungry, he cries, and when he’s wet, he cries too, such a mischievous one..."

"Yes, I want to see him."

The child was quickly brought over, appearing very small because he was premature. Feng Jiu reached out twice, not daring to take the child. He could only stare blankly at him with his gaze.

"This child, he looks a lot like His Majesty, especially his eyebrows and eyes, so alike!"

Feng Jiu chuckled softly.

He didn’t notice the sudden change in Feng Xiyue’s expression.

"By the way, has the child been named yet?" Feng Jiu remembered another matter.

"Hopeful for the child to grow up strong and healthy, I’ve given him the nickname Zhuangzhuang. As for his formal name, there isn’t one yet."

Feng Xiyue was slightly embarrassed, "Speaking of which, you are a scholar and have achieved laurels in the High School examination; you are Zhuangzhuang’s little uncle as well. Why don’t you give him a name?"

A hint of surprise flashed through Feng Jiu’s eyes, quickly concealed.

A child of the imperial family having his uncle, himself, name him—could there be something behind this he didn’t understand?

He disguised his feelings well, and after pondering for a moment, he carefully said, "How about Kongyang? There’s a line in the ’Book of Songs,’ ’Loaded with black, loaded with yellow, my vermilion, Kongyang.’ These characters ’Kongyang’ have vitality; I hope this name will make my nephew vibrant and cheerful."

"Kongyang? Qin Kongyang, that’s a good name, yes! Henceforth, he shall be called Qin Kongyang."

Feng Xiyue happily agreed.

As if a major issue was resolved, she breathed a long sigh of relief and tiredly closed her eyes.

Feng Jiu wanted to talk to her more, but seeing her like this, he could only take his leave.

After he left, he went straight to Nanny Jiang, "Tell me everything you’ve seen and heard since entering the palace, without any omission! Do not conceal anything."

Nanny Jiang had guessed this scene as soon as Feng Jiu entered the palace. Tears fell in an instant.

Daring not neglect, she quickly recounted the events in detail. She focused on how the current His Majesty approached Water Moon Courtyard with rare affection, and also about Imperial Concubine Feng’s consumption of labor-inducing medicines to give birth to a male infant prematurely.

Feng Jiu couldn’t help but cry out in confusion, "Foolishness! Why didn’t you consider that fruit falls when ripe? The fruit wasn’t even ripe yet, but you forced it down. Not only did you fail to gain any advantage, but you’ve also harmed my sister... You foolish woman! It’s all because of your rash ideas that you’ve harmed her!"

Feng Jiu, unable to contain his anger, stepped forward and kicked Nanny Jiang hard twice.

Nanny Jiang let out two cries of pain, quickly got up, and threw herself at Feng Jiu’s legs, crying out, "Young Master, this old servant did it for Imperial Concubine Feng’s sake! But now, after childbirth, she has injured her body, and her life hangs by a thread. Please, young master, please quickly find an eminent doctor; perhaps there’s still a chance to save her life! If the Imperial Concubine were truly gone, what would become of the young prince without her protection?"

These words made Feng Jiu’s face look even uglier!
