After Marrying a Vegetative Princess, I went crazy with joy! - Chapter 118

Chapter 118

In the Princess’s Mansion, within the inner courtyard, in the bedroom.

Changle tightly grasped Su Li’s hand, his face brimming with excitement and a hint of nervousness.

“Husband, is what you’re saying true?”

Su Li nodded and smiled, saying, “The pulse is rhythmic and smooth, resembling the rolling of pearls on a jade plate. There’s no doubt it’s a sign of happiness!”

“Husband, I’m so delighted!”

Changle lowered her head, gently caressing her abdomen, her eyes filled with boundless warmth.

It was said that a woman’s life was incomplete if she hadn’t borne a child or two, especially in an era that valued having heirs greatly. A woman not giving birth to children was almost considered a grave sin in society.

Since waking up, Changle had been inseparable from her husband, yet she showed no signs of pregnancy. At one point, she wondered if something was wrong with her body.

She had even secretly inquired about this matter with female attendants. During the open-minded Tang Dynasty, many princesses were quite willful. Hence, it was challenging to be a consort in the Tang Dynasty.

Most consorts didn’t reside in the Princess’s Mansion, treating their consort status as a job with set working hours. Such distorted marriages naturally lacked affection. It was entirely normal for some princesses not to bear children throughout their lives. However, Changle and Su Li were exceptions.

Changle genuinely adored her husband from the core of her heart. She truly desired to have a child for her husband. Now, her wish was finally fulfilled, and she felt boundlessly joyful.

“Have you informed the Emperor and Empress? Arrange for some carpenters to add children’s items to the house. Also, what about the embroidery maids in the mansion? Make sure to have them taken care of…”

Changle was preoccupied, constantly organizing tasks.

Su Li found it amusing and gently pressed her onto the bed, speaking softly, “My dear, I’ll take care of those matters. The first three months of pregnancy are the most critical, with the risk of complications. Your only task is to rest well.”

Changle buried her head in Su Li’s embrace, expressing joy by cuddling and talking to Su Li.

Before long, Changle drifted into a deep sleep. Su Li looked at Changle in his arms and couldn’t help but become lost in thought.

From when Changle woke up until now, more than half a year had passed. Changle’s belly hadn’t shown any movement all this time, and her anxiety was evident to Su Li, but there was little he could do.

At times, Su Li even wondered if he might be the cause of their inability to conceive. After all, his strength and physique had broken the human limits, thanks to the enhancement from the system. Now, it seemed like he had been overly concerned.

Soon, Su Li’s thoughts shifted to their unborn child, and he was again filled with anticipation.

Considering his current superhuman physique, if it could be passed on to their child…

Then, that child’s potential would undoubtedly be incredibly impressive!

However, he wasn’t sure whether the system’s attribute enhancements only affected him or would change the essence of his life at a genetic level.

When he arrived, he discovered that Changle was pregnant. He hadn’t checked the refreshed items in the system store today.

Taking advantage of Changle’s sleep, Su Li opened the system to see what new items were available today.

Commodity 2: Copper hot pot (ordinary cookware) value: 1 point

Commodity three: Thor’s Hammer (anything is just a hammer in front of this hammer, provided that you can afford it) Value: 5888w points

Commodity Four: A Huazi (Smokeless Huazi) Value: 1 Point

Commodity 5: Longevity pill (this pill can increase the life span by 100 years) Value: 1000w points

Available points: 5400766

Commodity warehouse: salt-making technique, steelmaking technique, spitting agent potion, hot air balloon, sundries…]

Su Li hadn’t made any major expenditures recently and had only occasionally purchased low-value items. Apart from occasionally redeeming attribute point gift packs, he hadn’t spent on anything else.

After three months, he had accumulated more than five million points. The attribute point small gift pack was not something to be missed.

After spending ten thousand points, he opened the attribute point gift pack and gained three free attribute points.

Items like the “Hot Pot” and “Huazi” were directly ignored. Thor’s Hammer didn’t hold much attraction for Su Li, either.

Su Li recalled that to wield this item, the condition was to be just, kind, and recognized by it.

Was it worth being recognized by this thing as a true citizen of the various dynasties?

Non-existent!

Quickly, Su Li’s gaze lands on the Longevity Pill.

A great item!

Although it was costly, it was worth it.

Longevity was something that every normal human sought. Throughout history, emperors had gone to great lengths to extend their lives. Whether it was searching for an elixir at sea or consuming various elixirs, no emperor had succeeded.

Even living past sixty was rare. But this Longevity Pill could truly extend life by a hundred years. Any emperor, if they knew about this, would undoubtedly go crazy.

Currently, his points were insufficient, so Su Li could only temporarily pin it as a top priority. Afterward, Su Li opened his panel again.

Name: Su Li

Age: 23

Power: 200 (additional points can be added)

Physique: 200 (add points)

Acuity: 95 (additional points can be added)

Perception: 125 (add points)

Charm: 63 (add points)

Available free attributes: 120

After a brief consideration, Su Li increased his perception attribute to 200. He then allocated all the remaining free attribute points to acuity, raising the acuity attribute to 140 points.

Through his self-study of military strategy during this period, Su Li realized the significance of the perception attribute. With 125 points of perception, he could already extrapolate and quickly comprehend any information he encountered.

Based on his previous experience with attribute enhancements, reaching a perception attribute of 200 would undoubtedly bring about significant changes. The points were added successfully, and immediately, Su Li felt an extreme lightness in his body. Simultaneously, his mind became clearer than ever before.

Previously scattered fragments of information in his memory flowed like water, rapidly passing through his mind and automatically organizing themselves into a vast interconnected information network.

After a moment, Su Li opened his eyes.

So that was how it was…

After increasing his perception to 200, the dimension of his thinking had fundamentally changed. The phrase “one by one” no longer describes this feeling. Su Li felt he could easily penetrate the essence of anything he saw.

If he had to put it into words, it would be somewhat similar to giving a supercomputer an equivalent level of thinking ability.

At that moment, laughter from Li Er and Empress Zhangsun could be heard in the courtyard, indicating that they had likely received news of Changle’s pregnancy.

Su Li gently pressed down the corner of the quilt covering Changle, got up, and headed out, pushing the door open.
