In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!

Chapter 535: Chapter 534: Pan’er certainly cannot agree to this matter_1

Su Pan’er looked ahead, her eyes fixed on the overlapping hands in front of Imperial Consort Hua. She quickly responded with a smile, "The Imperial Consort jests. For me to have the good fortune to enter the palace, it must have been the blessings I accrued over several lifetimes. I wouldn’t dare consider it a hardship."

"Ah! This matter was indeed a case of my lack of foresight."

Mentioning this, Imperial Consort Hua could not help but sigh!

She sneered, "I originally thought that no matter how much the Empress vexes you, she would at least save some face. Unexpectedly, she doesn’t even want to maintain the last shred of her dignity! Hah, does she think that His Majesty is truly oblivious to all her actions? It’s only because of past sentiments and her maiden family that he doesn’t hold grudges against her. Furthermore, regardless of how much she struggles, she must consider whether her deposed Crown Prince is indeed the material needed to govern and bring peace to the world! A mother relies on her son’s nobility, but the son must first be capable of attaining such nobility!"

Imperial Consort Hua spoke angrily yet her demeanor remained calm, all the while secretly observing Su Pan’er’s reaction.

Su Pan’er sat properly at the edge of the chair and looked toward Fei’er with a smile, "I see that the Eighth Prince is born with thick eyebrows and starry eyes, he has an aura of grandeur, indeed he is the fortunate one! Consort, you need not worry too much. There are many good days ahead!"

Her words really struck a chord with Imperial Consort Hua!

If you were to speak about what she valued most in this lifetime, it would naturally be Fei’er, whom she had devoted her entire heart and soul!

Imperial Consort Hua’s eyes were shining brightly, and she glanced sidelong at her, her gaze laced with a hint of mild annoyance.

"You, why are you still calling me Consort?"

"This..."

Su Pan’er looked up at her in confusion.

"Ah, you child."

Imperial Consort Hua shook her head, "I don’t know what happened between you and the Liu family. However, none of that matters anymore. You saved Fei’er, Fei’er calls you Elder Cousin Pan’er, it wouldn’t be inappropriate for you to call me Aunt, right?"

"Su Pan’er pays respect to Aunt."

Now that things had come to this point, Su Pan’er had to go with the flow, and once again bowed to the Imperial Consort.

She also bowed to Fei’er, "Cousin Fei’er."

Fei’er quickly returned the bow, and when Imperial Consort Hua wasn’t paying attention, he made faces at her.

This made the Palace Maids standing by unable to hold in their laughter. On the other hand, Su Pan’er kept her head down, her facial expression obscured.

Imperial Consort Hua waved her hand, "There’s no need for you here, all of you may leave!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

The palace maids retreated as instructed, leaving only an old nanny by the Imperial Consort’s side.

Watching Su Pan’er sitting there, neither humble nor arrogant, well-mannered, and knowing when to advance or retreat, Imperial Consort Hua secretly nodded her approval.

She had originally thought that her niece, who had been lost since childhood and was only found recently, would either be rustic-looking or timid and reticent. Unexpectedly, even though she had been lost among the commoners, she still maintained the demeanor of a child from an affluent family.

Despite being pregnant, she still maintained an elegant figure with clear brows and beautiful eyes, definitely a beautiful person with abundant good fortune.

The more she looked at her, the more pleased she became. Her heart was full of joy, but it stirred up her illness and she could not help but cover her mouth to cough several times.

Fei’er, with a worried face, quickly moved forward to pat her back gently, "Mother Consort, is your chest discomfort returning?"

Imperial Consort Hua shook her head, lightly patted Fei’er’s shoulder to comfort him, then turned her head to give Su Pan’er a reassuring smile.

"Fei’er tells me you practice medicine, Pan’er?"

Su Pan’er quickly stood up, "In reply to your question, aunt. Pan’er just knows a little and was lucky enough to have cured a few patients."

"Cousin Pan’er, you’re being far too modest."

Before Imperial Consort Hua could speak, Fei’er added, "Initially, the commoners of Yongzhou Prefecture and near Chengdu Prefecture suffered terribly from the plague. It was you, cousin, who single-handedly saved thousands of lives. That’s the real big deal, benefiting the country and its people. It was a problem those scholars couldn’t solve after generations, but you, Sister Pan’er, could figure out a solution. How could you say it is only a few patients?"

Although the matter indeed turned out as described, the solution came from Su Pan’er’s knowledge from the future, so how could she dare to take credit for it?

She quickly stood up again, "It was just a fortunate coincidence that I came across this issue and by chance managed to solve it. I really dare not take credit for it..."

"His Majesty mentioned this to me."

Imperial Consort Hua smiled softly, "His Majesty admired it a lot, saying it was a challenging issue he never expected a woman to resolve. He has always regretted you being a woman. Otherwise, he would have summoned you to the palace to be the imperial physician then and there. Now that you’re identified as a daughter of Liu’s family, if you were willing to become an imperial physician and serve at my side in the future, would you agree?"

At first, upon hearing reports from various prefectures and counties, His Majesty seriously considered allowing Su Pan’Er to enter the palace to become a female medical officer.

But in the end, Ye Han dissuaded him from it.

Because in this era, a female medical officer must often enter and leave the court. Most of them can never get married. If Su Pan’er were to become a medical officer, inevitably she would have to leave her husband and home.

This way, the position of a female medical officer wouldn’t be viewed as a reward but as a punishment instead!

Upon hearing the words of Imperial Consort Hua, Su Pan’er was shocked! As the saying goes, the door of a noble house is as deep as the sea. The inner courtyard of the palace appeared even more like a prison, and she did not want to be trapped forever in this place devoid of personal freedom.

She quickly rose to her feet and knelt down, "This, I absolutely cannot accept. I humbly ask you to withdraw your command!"

"Oh, look how scared you are..."

Imperial Consort Hua covered her mouth and laughed, "I was just teasing you! Previously, we didn’t know who you were, and only took the matter lightly. Now that we know you’re the daughter of my own sister, I wouldn’t let you become a female medical officer."

Bringing up the topic made Imperial Consort Hua’s face appear somewhat resentful.

"Thank you for your generosity, Aunt."

Su Pan’er expressed her gratitude once again and under the help of an old nanny, she got up and sat down.

She can’t help but complain about this damned feudal society. One can be forced to kneel and kowtow at any moment. She is heavily pregnant, nearly eight months in, having to get up and down is just torture!

Imperial Consort Hua seemed very happy, "General Ye and Fei’er both praised your medical skills. Come, come check me, recently, I’ve felt constantly agitated. I’ve been sleepless for many nights. I always feel a bit dizzy throughout the day. Have I contracted some disease?"

The main act was here!

Su Pan’er was relieved, after going around for a while the main point finally came up.

"Yes, Aunt."

Su Pan’er slowly stepped forward, when she came near she made another salute and said, "Aunt, I beg your pardon."

She then raised her head to carefully observe Imperial Consort Hua’s face.

Imperial Consort Hua looked wealthy and prestigious at a distance. But a close examination revealed her complexion to be dull, with faint discoloration on her face, her eyes looked drooping and there were shades of dark blue under her eyelids.

Her gaze slowly fell on those well-manicured hands. They were covered with nail colors on her fingertips, making it impossible to see their natural color.
