As soon as these words came out, Lu Yun's body suddenly trembled, and he felt very uneasy. Good fellow, don't say that. What do you mean by feeling close to me but not to the emperor?

Although she did...cuckold the emperor.

But in fact, the queen was his woman, so there was nothing wrong with it.

"Eunuch Lu, please place your hand on my lower abdomen and take a look at the baby inside. This will also help us inform His Majesty."

Lu Yun was confused. Is this really possible?

Good man, Queen, are you really thinking of yourself as a spiritual sustenance, or are you trying to replace the emperor? The emperor doesn't want to look at the child in his belly, so he wants to feel it.

Forget it... Anyway, in the queen's heart, he is just a eunuch. As a eunuch, everything he does seems reasonable.

There is no taboo because we are all sisters...

Lu Yun slowly stretched out his palm, placed it on Shangguan Feng'er's lower abdomen, and gently rubbed it.

Shangguan Feng'er couldn't help but look a little strange, with more thoughts in her mind, but she didn't know why.

When Eunuch Lu placed his hand on his lower abdomen, he felt his stomach start to beat, and even felt more intimate, without any sense of incongruity at all.

What is going on?

Lu Yun couldn't help himself at this moment, and he quietly moved closer and put his ear to the queen's lower abdomen, listening to the movement of the baby inside.

If other people saw this scene, it would definitely be extraordinary.

After a long time, Lu Yun stood up awkwardly and answered somewhat embarrassedly.

"Well, Your Majesty, I was so confused that I leaned against your belly and listened for the baby's movements. I hope you don't mind."

Shangguan Feng'er smiled and said, "What are you joking about, Eunuch Lu? I naturally know about this matter."

"Besides, I asked you to do this, so it's harmless."

"Besides, the eunuch is just a eunuch, and I have no right to say anything about this matter."

“…”

Soon, Lu Yun returned to the hall. Liang Jing saw him and asked curiously.

"Didn't I ask you to accompany the Queen? How's it going? How's your company?"

"I think the Queen must be pregnant, so she has other things on her mind. She must be too worried. And the rumors that have been spreading recently have also had some impact on her."

Lu Yun walked forward and sat casually on the steps, nodded and said, "Indeed."

"Then they asked why Your Majesty didn't spend more time with her and look at the child. This is totally not something a father would do."

Liang Jing couldn't help but roll his eyes. "It's not my child. It's your child, but you don't care about it. Why do you insist on asking me to care about it? How can I care about it?"

Lu Yun snorted lightly, "I have no control over this matter. Your Majesty is the one who will take care of this matter anyway."

"The Queen didn't notice anything!"

"No." Lu Yun explained helplessly.

Liang Jing also put down the pen in his hand at this moment, sat down, and said with emotion: "Xiao Yunzi, ever since this incident happened, I have been worried. What if our identities are exposed to the public again? What should we do?"

"If this happens again, I really won't be able to defend myself."

"There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall. Everything will eventually get out."

"Although we haven't yet found out who knows the truth behind this matter."

Liang Jing sighed deeply, feeling very worried. "It shouldn't be like this. I've been in this palace for so long, and I've never been exposed."

"Which eunuch or palace maid dares to say such words and doubt me?"

"The person closest to me, besides the Shadow Guard, is Eunuch Liu. I don't think Eunuch Liu would dare to do such a thing."

"Besides, even Eunuch Liu doesn't know about this."

Lu Yun was stunned for a moment. He also felt very confused about this matter, but no matter what, the incident had already happened. What else could he do?

Although the rumor has been debunked, some people still don't quite believe it.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will investigate this matter. Our spies have been following Du Ruofu all along."

"I heard that he went to a brothel in the capital. If I'm not mistaken, he must have used the brothel to conceal his whereabouts and secretly talked with the people inside."

"We've also done some research and found that quite a few officials went to the brothel during those few days. We will arrest them and interrogate them one by one."

"The relevant personnel will also do their best to investigate."

Liang Jing seemed to be thinking about something, and then he said, "Xiao Yunzi, I still think that we must fight these Xiongnu this time, but how to fight is a problem."

"They will probably gather their troops soon. Why don't we take the initiative and attack Du Ruofu directly."

"If our Great Zhou takes the lead, things will become easier, right?"

"Xiao Yunzi, what do you think?"

Lu Yun frowned, thought carefully, and quickly explained.

"Your Majesty, Du Ruofu's strength has not yet recovered, and he returned to the Barbarian Kingdom in such a hurry that he must have reorganized his troops."

"So we really don't need to be too anxious, but we must think of a solution."

"I heard from my subordinates that Du Ruofu is indeed very respected in the Barbarian Country, but the Barbarian King seems to have some different opinions from him."

"We only know this little bit of information about this matter at the moment. We don't know the inside story."

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, how about I secretly sneak into their barbarian country and look for some clues, or maybe disintegrate them from within, which would also bring a very good advantage to our Great Zhou."

Liang Jing glanced at it thoughtfully, then suddenly became worried. He asked, "But Xiao Yunzi, I'm really worried. If you secretly sneak into their territory, what if you run into danger? They hate you to the core."

"I think this matter...still needs to be carefully considered."

Lu Yun frowned and shook his head, "It's alright, Your Majesty. Perhaps my entry into the Barbarian Country will also have a miraculous effect."

"Besides, Your Majesty, I can ask Ye Jiajia, the Grandmaster, to follow me. If anything unexpected happens, I will be able to escape in time."

"Alas, it's all my fault that I can't practice. I'm not even a third-rank master now."

Lu Yun was very distressed. He had such a high status and position now, but he was unable to practice. This was really puzzling.

Is the physical condition of my body really that bad?

"That's fine. It's up to you. I won't force you."
