"My queen, I will send a message to Lord Li right away." Yan Lan retreated.

Murong Yan stroked her belly. If nothing unexpected happened, the child would be born smoothly next summer.

With him, there was no need for Xuanyuan Sheng to exist.

Although those women in the harem did have some means, they were not good enough in front of her. After all, they were all left over from her play.

Although Xuanyuan Sheng liked her very much now and was willing to let her become his wife.

But his love was just a kind of charity, just like raising an obedient pet.

He came when he called and left when he waved. He coaxed her when she was happy and threw her aside when she was unhappy.

She could only become the way he liked in every way and please him without leaving any trace.

She didn't want such feelings. She was just playing a show to achieve her goal.

She never wanted love. Those illusory things were not worth mentioning in front of power.

If one day she posed a threat to his throne, he would surely give up her without hesitation.

Instead of doing that, it is better to seize the opportunity early.

"My queen, His Majesty has arrived outside the palace!"

When Murong Yan heard the palace maid come to report, a gentle smile appeared on her face again.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

Xuanyuan Sheng helped Murong Yan up, "Yan'er is pregnant now, no need to be polite."

"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty."

Xuanyuan Sheng looked at the woman in front of him. Although she was pregnant, she was still elegant.

"Yan'er, I heard that you have a poor appetite recently. Is that true?"

Murong Yan nodded slightly, "The emperor is a little noisy, but I am fine."

"When Yan'er gives birth to a legitimate son, I will immediately appoint him as the crown prince."

Xuanyuan Sheng is also looking forward to his first child.

No one in the palace has given birth to a child in these years, so he is a little worried. He specially asked the imperial physician to check his pulse, but was told that he was healthy.

He is now thirty years old, and it is time to consider the issue of succession.

If Yan'er gave birth to a legitimate eldest son, it would be fine to train him well and let him become the crown prince.

"I am terrified!"

Xuanyuan Sheng touched Murong Yan's belly, "Yan'er, just take good care of the baby these days, and I will send someone to take care of the rest."

In the winter of Shengjing, the wind was cold and the bustling market in the past was now only a few people.

In the teahouse, the storyteller's story came to an abrupt end.

There were quite a few idle people who listened to the storytelling. They ordered a pot of inexpensive tea and sat for a whole morning.

Ming Jiu was a little puzzled as to why his master always liked to listen to these bizarre stories here when he had nothing to do.

The tea in the teahouse was very ordinary, and the tea-making skills were not comparable to those in the mansion.

Most of those stories were popular love and hatred in the market, or strange stories in the rivers and lakes, true and false, false and true, and meaningless.

He always felt that such a place was not where his master should stay.

In public, there was no cover, and it was easy to be discovered.

"Brother Yan, I didn't expect to see you here. Are you here to listen to storytelling?"

A man in black sat down beside Xuanyuan Yan.

"Fu Kang, the miraculous doctor, why are you here?" Ming Jiu asked when he saw Fu Kang.

Fu Kang picked up the teapot and teacup on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Brother Yan is in a good mood. Listening to storytelling in the teahouse in the winter."

"You too." Xuanyuan Yan admired the miraculous doctor who cured him.

Since he became blind, he looked for famous doctors all over the country, but there was no solution.

He thought that was his fate, and even gave up on himself and thought about ending his life.

Ming Jiu said that there was a miraculous doctor in the Five Elements Clinic who might be able to cure his eyes.

With the mentality of trying his best, he went to find him.

The treatment process was very terrifying. He once thought that the miraculous doctor was deliberately torturing him.

It was not until the moment he saw the light again that he realized that everything he did had a reason, and he also met him because of this.

Fu Kang looked into the distance, "It's the end of the year, some things should be restrained a little, don't go out every day."

Xuanyuan Yan was silent for a long time. The man in front of him was too smart. He couldn't see through him, and didn't know which side he was on.

"Thank you for your concern, I will pay attention."

Fu Kang sighed, "I know I can't persuade you, I can only wish you good luck."

"Shengjing is going to change, I'd better go out and travel, I hope you are still alive when I return."

Xuanyuan Yan took a sip of tea, "Then I wish you a safe journey."

After Fu Kang drank a cup of tea, he left gracefully.

Ming Jiu didn't know what the two were talking about, "Master, why did this Fu Kang come here today?"

"What, maybe to remind you, or to say goodbye."

He knew what he wanted to do, but he didn't say it out loud, nor did he express support or opposition, which was the best result.

"Okay, go back! Tell the people in the dark to stop what's going on during this period."

Ming Jiu didn't understand. This was already a critical moment. If they stopped suddenly, it would be detrimental to their subsequent actions.

"Master, we are now..."

"No need to say more. I know my limits." Fu Kang's reminder was not unreasonable. If you are too eager for success, you will fail.

After waiting for so many years, will there be a few months left?

Seeing Xuanyuan Yan's insistence, Ming Jiu didn't say much. He believed that the master had his reasons for doing so.

"What should I do with General Qin?"

Speaking of Qin Yuchuan, Xuanyuan Yan had a headache for a while. It seemed that he could only send him away earlier.

The South Xinjiang has been restless for a long time, and he had to add fuel to the flames.

As long as he was not in Shengjing, he would not be a threat. He didn't want to put him in a situation of disloyalty and injustice for all these years of friendship.

"Go check the woman in the palace, and send someone to pay attention to the border affairs."

"I will do it right away, but who is the woman in the palace?"

Is the master still obsessed with that woman?

She is already Xuanyuan Sheng's woman. She betrayed her loyalty and humiliated the master. How can such a woman be worthy of his bright and clear master?

I don't know what the master is thinking. He actually wants to check her affairs.

The women in the harem are jealous every day. What is there to check?

"Master, are you still in love with her?" Ming Jiu asked nervously.

Xuanyuan Yan glanced at him, wondering what he was thinking.

"I asked you to check the queen, what are you thinking about?"

"I understand, I will check it now."

Fortunately, it was not that woman, but when did the master become interested in the queen again?

He didn't hear that Xuanyuan Sheng loved the queen very much, so he wanted to snatch her away and take revenge on them!

There is no need for this. As a master, he can find any girl. Why do you have to think about someone who has someone else?
