"Deshun, prepare the harem!"

I want to do something big.

After not having any offspring for a long time, Zhou Beichen felt that now that the country was stable and the world was at peace, his offspring was more important.

As soon as Zhou Beichen left, all the ministers in the hall were exhausted or wiping their sweat.

At this time, Zhou Zhaonuan was still struggling with the stone steps. There were a total of ninety-nine stone steps. After her efforts, she finally climbed to the fifteenth step.

Going further up, alas, there is still such a long way to go.

Looking down at his calves, he felt very sore. Zhou Zhaonuan decided to give up and stop walking to rest for a while.

Zhou Zhaonuan sat down on the stone steps and didn't want to move at all.

Zhou Beichen was stunned when he walked to the door of the hall. He looked at a small figure on the stone steps. She was wearing a pink silk dress and had two small buns on her head. She was trying hard to climb up.

Who is so bold as to bring the child into the palace? Isn't this obviously causing trouble for him?

Zhou Beichen became more and more angry.

He couldn't help but blurt out.

"What is that?"

"You, go and bring that plump pink ball over to me."

The eunuch chief Deshun was suddenly a little embarrassed. That was just a child, how was he supposed to carry him?

But after Zhou Beichen gave him a look, he didn't dare to say anything else. He ran down step by step, but he was in trouble when he saw the little ball in front of him.

It's so big, if I lift my legs, I'm afraid they will break.

However, he dared not disobey the order of His Majesty. Finally, Deshun had an idea. He put his hands under Zhou Zhaonuan's arms and lifted him up.

Feeling the water level rising, Zhou Zhaonuan almost danced with excitement.

"Who are you?"

She opened her big eyes like crystal grapes and looked at him seriously.

Seeing this, Deshun suddenly wanted to burst into tears. Given the emperor's temper, this child might not have much time to live.

As he thought about it, he held Zhou Zhaonuan tighter.

"This old slave is carrying you on the orders of the Emperor."

I'm carrying you up there to die. Deshun suppressed his heartache and didn't say the second half of the sentence.

"Your Majesty, I have brought the person here."

Zhou Beichen nodded, and then Deshun put Zhou Zhaonuan on the ground.

At this time, the ministers came out of the hall one after another. When they saw the child suddenly appear at the door, they all showed a look of excitement.

Zhou Beichen first glanced at Zhou Zhaonuan, then swept his cold gaze over the minister, with a murderous aura that was extremely strong.

The ministers were stunned, looking at each other, wondering what they had done.

Zhou Zhaonuan was dumbfounded by being surrounded by so many people at once. She kept patting her chest with her hands. These people were all dressed well. And the jade pendant hanging around the waist of the one in the middle was so beautiful.

If only I could give it to her.

"Where did this bastard come from? Hurry up and claim it back for me, or don't blame me for being rude."

Zhou Beichen glanced at everyone indifferently, and paused for a moment above Duke Lu's head.

Duke Lu was completely bewildered. He tensed up and immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty, this... this is not my child."

"If it's not yours, then it belongs to one of your beloved ministers."

Zhou Beichen turned his gaze to the ministers again.

Zhou Zhaonuan blinked, as if she understood something. That's right, her mother had told her to find the man with a straight back, who everyone was afraid of, and who others would kneel down when they saw him, and then claim to be his child.

Think about this.

Zhou Zhaonuan didn't think twice and walked forward excitedly, hugging Zhou Beichen's thigh.

Seriously.

"Nuannuan is not a bastard, she is yours."

For a moment, the air was quiet, and in the silence, there was an inexplicable awkward atmosphere.

They were surprised that the emperor, who always had a mysophobia, did not kick the milk ball away.

"Are you my offspring?"

"Hahaha!!!"

Zhou Beichen was so angry that he almost laughed. The imperial physician said that he could not have children. How could he have a daughter? It was ridiculous.

"I don't kill innocent people or babies. Considering your young age, get out of here."

Without thinking, he ran over and kicked Zhou Zhaonuan out.

"roll!!!"

"Where did I get my daughter?"

Zhou Beichen's voice was as cold as ice.

This kick really made Zhou Zhaonuan's internal organs feel dull pain. Finally, because of the pain in her abdomen, she curled up in place and wrapped herself up like a round ball.

Zhou Beichen: “…”

His brows furrowed slightly. Why? Seeing this silly girl in pain made him feel uncomfortable.

Zhou Zhaonuan felt sad inside and wanted to cry, but her mother said that her father hated crying children the most, so she had to smile, and try hard to smile.

Zhou Zhaonuan covered her belly, thinking about what her mother said, and step by step, she persevered and hugged Zhou Beichen's thigh again.

She smiled, but because of the pain, that smile was uglier than crying.

"Daddy, Nuannuan is really your child. Mother said so. Mother said she couldn't leave the cold palace, so she asked Nuannuan to come to you and daddy. Otherwise, we would be taken away by the bad guys, and..."

It hurts, it hurts so much, it hurts so much that Zhou Zhaonuan couldn't bear the severe pain anymore, her head tilted, and she fainted at his feet.

Is this stupid girl really his daughter? Where did he get such a grown-up daughter?

Zhou Beichen remained silent.

However, seeing the little girl fainted on the ground, his anger rose sharply. Looking at the ministers around him, Zhou Beichen immediately stretched out his broad arms and held the round girl in his arms.

"Go, call the imperial physician to see if this girl was kicked to death by me? If she is dead, I will give her a small coffin and throw her into the mass grave."

Zhou Beichen frowned slightly. The kick he just gave was quite strong. Somehow, his heart was beating very fast, as if... he was very anxious.

Deshun's body tensed up, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, do you want her to live or die?

Even when he carried Zhou Zhaonuan to Qianyuan Palace, Zhou Beichen still couldn't figure out that someone in the harem was pregnant during this period.

Cold Palace.

Shen Nian'an waited anxiously, feeling extremely anxious.

"Mother, my sister has been gone for so long and hasn't come back yet. Could something have really happened to her?"

Zhou Zeyun paced back and forth on the ground. Her mother asked her sister to go out and find their so-called father, saying that it was now the time and if the three of them still couldn't get out of the cold palace, they would probably be kicked out sideways tomorrow.

Thinking of what Shen Nian'an overheard the old nanny said, Zhou Beichen was eager to have a child, so he let his daughter try her best.

"Won't."

Shen Nian'an looked ahead with determination. Yes, she had transmigrated into a book. As for which book she had transmigrated into, she was not quite sure. After all, she had read too many online novels and had forgotten.
