Chapter 1461 exposed

While Lin Hao was busy with the affairs of the Jiuchuan Affairs Bureau after his marriage, Yin An fell ill because he was too weak to handle the medicine prescribed by the "miracle doctor".

Because the third son was afraid that people would find out that he had no children due to his own reasons, he always took medicine secretly and did not make it public. Therefore, others did not know the cause of his illness.

When Lady Chuan learned that he was ill, she sent the imperial physician to treat him.

After taking Yin An's pulse, the imperial physician examined his complexion and then asked curiously:

"Third Young Master, your pulse looks erratic. Have you eaten anything strange these past few days?"

"No?" the third brother immediately denied.

"No?" Knowing that the Third Young Master was definitely hiding something, the imperial physician deliberately frowned and said with a puzzled expression:
"That's difficult to diagnose. It must be some kind of complicated illness. I apologize for my lack of experience. When I return to the Imperial Hospital, I will ask other imperial physicians to examine the Third Young Master's pulse!"

Hearing the imperial physician's words, Yin An felt a little scared, fearing that he might really have some kind of intractable disease, so he quickly said:

"No need, it's nothing serious, I won't bother anyone else, you can take another look!"

The imperial physician looked at the stove where the medicine was being decocted, then sniffed it and said:
"You said you were still decocting medicine, but you wouldn't answer any of my questions. What am I supposed to do?"
"Xi Yan!" Yin An called to his trusted attendant, Xi Yan, "Go to that cabinet and take out the prescription from the very back!"

"Yes!" Xi Yan said, taking the prescription and handing it to the imperial physician.

At this moment, Yin An awkwardly said, "I haven't eaten anything else these past few days, just a few doses of medicine prescribed in Mochuan. Imperial Physician, please take a look!"

"Deer antler, placenta, epimedium, teasel root, psoralea, cordyceps, cynomorium~!" The imperial physician frowned as he read the prescription, then roared in anger:

"These are all highly effective tonics, yet they're all prescribed in one formula! This could kill someone! What quack doctor wrote this prescription?!"

"Not only will this not help, it will also shorten your lifespan!" the imperial physician said, and quickly asked, "Third Young Master, how many days have you been taking this prescription?"

"More than half a month, I suppose!" The imperial physician said solemnly, while Yin An said somewhat nervously.

After carefully examining Yin An's condition, the imperial physician shook his head and said with some relief:
"You're still alive? Your body is really resilient. Judging from this prescription alone, you've been tricked, Third Young Master!"

"No way!" After hearing the imperial physician's words, Yin An finally realized what was going on and exclaimed in sudden realization:

"But what you said makes sense. I was wondering why that bastard looked at me like that!"

Upon hearing this, the imperial physician asked with some doubt, "Why did the Third Young Master travel all the way to Mochuan to find someone to prescribe medicine?"

Then Yin An went on and on, explaining the whole story:

"My initial intention was to avoid alarming the imperial physicians, for fear that they would discover I had a hidden ailment!"

"Especially since the imperial physicians treated them and it wasn't a problem with my wives, I'm even more unwilling to let outsiders know!"

"So that's your hidden ailment, Third Young Master!" Upon hearing this, the imperial physician suddenly realized that he couldn't get an erection, and thought to himself, "No wonder."

Seeing the imperial physician's expression, Yin An explained somewhat awkwardly, "It's not about that, it's just that we haven't been able to have children!"

"You should have said so earlier!" The imperial physician breathed a sigh of relief, then, while taking the pulse, advised:
"But we can't just prescribe medicine randomly everywhere, what if it ruins your health!"

The imperial physician then took her pulse again, and Dong Haitang, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, heard that it was a misunderstanding and ran back to share it with her friends.

While the imperial physician was taking his pulse, he kept his brows furrowed, which startled Yin An, who quickly asked:

"Imperial Physician, judging from your expression, just say what's on your mind!"

Then, as if remembering something terrible, Yin An said with a deathly pale face, "I can handle it!"

However, after taking the pulse, the imperial physician, seemingly unsure, took the pulse again and said:

"That's strange. Although you said you took the wrong medicine, which caused your pulse to be weak and shallow, you should have no problem with having children!"

After taking Yin An's pulse, and with Yin An's cooperation, the imperial physician carefully examined his condition and finally said with certainty:

"Based on my many years of experience, I can tell you that you are fertile!"

"You're telling the truth!" Upon hearing this, Yin An immediately perked up and recovered without any medicine.

“Absolutely true!” the imperial physician said with certainty.

Then Yin An asked in confusion, "But why haven't I had a child all these years?!"

"Yes, you and your wife, along with your many concubines, should all be fine. You shouldn't have no children after all these years..."

After talking with the imperial physician, I learned that infertility can be caused by many acquired methods in addition to congenital factors.

After the two reconciled accounts and conducted a thorough investigation, as well as examining past clues, they finally discovered the problem.

After the imperial physicians analyzed the situation, they learned the truth about why he had no children: Dong Haitang had been having sex with the seasonal girls on specific days, and when it was unavoidable, they would drink contraceptive soup afterward. They had even developed portable contraceptive pills.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the imperial physician took his leave early. He had seen this kind of thing many times before and was afraid that blood would splatter on him later.

Before the imperial physician left, Yin An withdrew some more silver, asking him to keep it a secret under the pretext that family scandals should not be made public!

The imperial physicians had seen this kind of thing many times, so they naturally agreed.

······
While Yin An was dealing with the aftermath, the inner quarters were filled with laughter and joy.

"Frost's Descent, today is your birthday, make a wish!"

"I hope so!" Shuangjiang said, making a wish in her heart, then lowering her hand and saying:
"Alright, alright, let's eat!"

At this moment, Dong Haitang arrived at the inner courtyard, and Shuangjiang hurriedly said:

"Sister Haitang, come and eat!"

"You've come at the perfect time!" the others greeted.

Dong Haitang sat down and said mysteriously, "Sisters, guess what I heard at the door of the third brother's house?"

"what?"

Dong Haitang said with a smile, "He told the imperial physician that he had been taking medicine indiscriminately and suspected that he had a hidden illness, which was why he couldn't have children!"

"Hahahaha~!" Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter and mocked them.
"Whose prescription is this? Isn't this doing good deeds and accumulating merit?"

"Exactly! We should send him a plaque with four big characters on it: 'Miraculous Hands That Can Extinguish Grandchildren'!"

"Isn't this retribution? He deserves to have no heir!"

“I remember last year, he was going to buy me a birthday gift, but he forgot all about it once he got to the market and bought himself a piece of jade instead!”

"On my birthday, he bought himself a jade!"

"Every time he meets a new person!"

"Sisters, let me show you!" Then Shuangjiang mimicked the third sister's expression and said:
"Girl, you are the apple of my eye!"

"Hahahaha~!" Upon hearing this, the women burst into laughter.

After laughing, Shuangjiang continued, "Sisters, it turns out his heart was like a durian, full of sharp points, and those points were full of people!"

"It's packed with people~, hahahaha!"

Unaware that Yin An was right outside the door, they spoke with utter malice and unbridled abandon. Yin An, listening to the vicious and cruel words of these women he had always cherished, felt a chill run down his spine.

Finally, unable to resist, he pushed the door open and looked at the women with a gloomy expression. When the group of seasonal girls saw that it was Yin An who had entered, the atmosphere in the hall immediately froze.

Yin An sat down next to Dong Haitang, then suddenly said with a smile, "There are people everywhere, keep eating, eat and drink well!"

Seeing Yin An's gloomy face, everyone immediately understood that the third brother must have heard what they had just said, and they all fell silent, poking at their bowls with their chopsticks.

Yin An looked at the woman opposite him and said, "Bai Lu, isn't this noodle dish a bit bland? You need to add some seasoning!"

"No, I think it's fine!"

"I need to add some!" Yin An took out a bottle of medicine, placed it on the table, and said, "I happen to have a bottle here!"

"Put it in, put it in!" Yin An roared. Seeing that the woman remained silent, Yin An opened the medicine bottle and said, "Here, I'll put it in for you!"

As he spoke, he poured the small pills inside into the bowl.

"What are you doing? This is...!" Seeing that Yin An's expression was off, Dong Haitang quickly advised.

"Shut up!" Before Dong Haitang could finish speaking, Yin An roared angrily at her, "Tell me what this is, what is this?!"

"You guys are really something, always coming up with new ways to trick me. Why is that?"

"Why?" Yin An looked around at the women in his surroundings, then glared at the woman opposite him and demanded angrily.

"Others are one thing, but Bai Lulai, tell me, I've been so gentle and considerate to you, why won't you have my child?"

"I celebrate your birthday every year, aren't you happy? Aren't I good enough to you?"

Meanwhile, "Bai Lu" across from them picked up her chopsticks with an impatient look and continued eating indifferently!
"Stop eating!" Yin An, seeing the other party's blatant disrespect, immediately slammed down his bowl and roared.
"Tell me why, Lulu~!"

Before Yin An could finish speaking, the woman opposite him slammed down her chopsticks and shouted, "Let me tell you, my name is Shuangjiang!"

"I am Bai Lu!" the woman standing beside her shouted as she stood up.

Yin An's trusted confidant, Xi Yan, sensed something was wrong and turned to leave the living room.

Then one by one, the women stood up and said:
"I am Xiaoman!"

"I am the Great Heat!"

"I am Jingzhe~!"

"I am Lidong (the Beginning of Winter)!"

"I am~!"

Watching these women introduce themselves one by one, their appearances were completely different from those of the women I usually knew.

Seeing the group of women glaring at him angrily, Yin An retreated in fear, then gasped.

But he was, after all, the master of this house. The key was that he, the third young master Yin An, was never a truly stupid person. He immediately figured out how they operated on a daily basis.

To outsiders, this third young master appears to be face-blind, unable to even remember the names of his own women.

But in his heart, he knows exactly who everyone is and what their names are!

Unfortunately, from the very beginning, when they were still unfamiliar with each other, after he mistook someone for someone else for the first time, these women took advantage of the mistake and deliberately mixed up the names to deceive him.

Of course, this was also his deliberate indulgence, after all, he originally wanted to protect himself by defaming himself, so as not to be affected by the turmoil in the court.

What he didn't expect was that these women really treated him like a fool, actually drinking contraceptive soup and even trying to avoid pregnancy by alternating their menstrual cycles.

For this reason, they even developed a portable contraceptive pill, which infuriated Yin An. He could tolerate everything else, but this was unforgivable.

"Guards!" Yin An shouted in a deep voice, and then Xi Yan led his men, who rushed in with sticks in hand: "Third Young Master!"

Upon seeing outsiders enter, the woman who had just been raging and glaring at Yin An immediately suppressed her murderous expression.

"I guess I was too good to you and too indulgent with you before, which is why things have come to this!"

"It seems I have no choice but to resort to family discipline to let you know who's in charge in this household!"

"Someone come here!"

"Yes!" A group of servants immediately stepped forward.
Yin An looked at Dong Haitang and asked, "Is it too late for you to repent now?"

However, Dong Haitang only glared at Yin An, showing no remorse whatsoever. Seeing this, Yin An turned to the group of girls and threatened them:

"I'm asking you, are you scared or not!"

However, the group of women glared at Yin An with resentment and proactively extended their hands, ready to be beaten.

That's right, the family discipline in the third son's household was to hit the hands with a stick. And since this woman was, after all, the third son's concubine, even though the servants had bamboo sticks, they didn't dare to really hit her hard. A light tap was enough as punishment.

These women were already used to such punishments, so none of them showed any fear.

Seeing this, Yin An became furious and shouted at his servants, "Beat them! Beat them until they admit their mistake!"

Watching the women being slapped on the hand, Yin An then turned to Dong Haitang and asked, "Haitang, I'm asking you, do you admit your mistake or not!"

However, Dong Haitang stretched out her hand and said disdainfully, "Go ahead and hit me if you want!"

Her identity was special; she was a concubine sent by Cangchuan for a political alliance and marriage. Her family was powerful and influential, and since it involved the diplomatic relations between the two Sichuan states, how could she be punished without cause!

It should be noted that even the eldest son, Yin Song, despite disliking Zhao Fangru, only dared to secretly drug her and never dared to hit her.

"You~!" Upon hearing this, Yin An was instantly enraged. He disregarded all his concerns and prepared to strike.

"Stop!" Just then, Li Wei and Yuan Ying burst in.

"Sister Haitang!" Li Wei quickly helped Dong Haitang up.

Upon seeing Yuan Ying and Li Wei, Yin An suppressed his anger and asked irritably, "Li Wei, what are you doing here!"

"Third Young Master, Dong Haitang, who will marry you and become your principal wife, was personally chosen by the new Sichuan Lord!"

"If you hit him, wouldn't that be disobeying the lord!"

Then, together with Yuan Ying, they helped the group of girls up. However, even after they got up, they still glared at Yin An with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Although Li Wei's words made Yin An stop, the attitude of these women reignited the anger he had been suppressing.

So he said angrily:
"Okay, I won't hit her. I brought everyone else back myself, so it has nothing to do with you, Master!"

At this moment, Yuan Ying stepped forward and said, "Third Young Master, the new Chuan Master hopes that all the young masters will manage their households well and strive for harmony!"

"The Third Young Master has just rendered meritorious service in Mo Chuan and gained some opportunities. If this news reaches the ears of the new Chuan Master, a good reward will turn into punishment. What's the point of that?"

Yuan Ying began to present the facts and reason with him.

But clearly, that's not the key issue. Yin An's anger stems more from the deception and betrayal he suffered at the hands of these women!
