Threw the Shoe

Ying Lili was eating Yangmei (Chinese Bayberry) with Court Lady Xu in the morning. "Sheng Li does not like Bayberry?!" Ying Lili astonishingly asked. Court Lady Xu nodded her head. 

"Does he like any fruit? Last time when we were in the Southern Province, he refused to eat Tangerine," Ying Lili muttered and picked another bayberry from the bowl. 

"The Crown Princess shall think about the future heirs of Han," Court Lady Xu made Ying Lili understand. "The Empress has called the Royal Astrologer tomorrow. He will give you the date on which you must consummate with the Crown Prince. The Yin and Yang energies must get together," Court Lady Xu told Ying Lili, who keenly listened to her. 

"I understand," Ying Lili replied. 

"A son will lead your legacy, Your Highness. So, keep in mind to bear a son only else the position of the Crown Prince might get in danger. Since other Princes are also married, everyone will try to have a son," Court Lady Xu opined.
