Su Wanti sat alone in the carriage returning to the palace.

Today, she was able to accurately shake out the fortune that indicated the unicorn bringing a child because a few days ago, she asked Ye Zi's cousin to sneak into the royal temple, and asked him to find the fortune that indicated the unicorn bringing a child in the fortune-teller box inside the temple, and then made a mark on it that only Su Wanti could recognize.

Su Wanti has practiced sword and has excellent wrist strength.

After she saw the marked lot, she used her skills and wrist strength to shake out the "Qilin Delivers a Child" lot in just a few strokes.

As for the abbot reading her fortune and horoscope...

This was beyond her expectations. Her power was still very weak and she could not influence the abbot at all.

Su Wanti thought,

Maybe it is true as the abbot said, that I am destined to have many children and good fortune?

Perhaps the emperor had been on the throne for several years without having any children, and was just waiting for me to enter the palace...

She didn't know what was written in the abbot's letter to the emperor, but from the words between the abbot and the queen, she could guess that the content of the letter should be related to offspring, and she estimated that the words in the letter would be beneficial to her.

After returning to the palace, the queen went to Xuanzheng Hall to meet Rongzhou with the abbot's handwritten letter.

"Your Majesty, I'm back." The queen came quickly with joy in her eyes.

Rong Zhou put down his red brush and said with a smile:

"The Queen has returned. Although the Royal Temple is outside the capital, it still takes two hours to go there and back. Furthermore, the ceremony is complex and the journey is exhausting. The Queen must be exhausted. Why doesn't she return to the palace to rest first?"

The Queen presented the abbot's letter to Rong Zhou and said with joy:

"Your Majesty, this trip was well worth it. I have good news to tell you."

"What good news?"

"Your Majesty, please read this letter first. This is a letter written by the abbot to Your Majesty personally." The Queen deliberately kept the secret.

Rong Zhou was curious. The abbot of the royal temple had never written to him before, so he wondered why he was writing to him today.

With doubts, Rong Zhou opened the letter.

After reading the letter, Rong Zhou looked calm. He gently placed the letter on the desk and asked, "Queen, do you believe it?"

The queen's eyes sparkled, as if two small flames were burning in them. She was too excited today and had lost her usual dignified demeanor.

"Your Majesty, don't you believe it? But Your Majesty, please listen to what I have to say."

"Ever since the Emperor ascended the throne, I have led the sisters in the harem to the royal temple every year to burn incense and pray. Every time, I pray to the gods, hoping that one of the sisters in the harem will give birth to an imperial heir. But every year, my wish is unfulfilled."

"Not only that, every year when the sisters in the harem draw lots, they can't even get a lot for a child... But today, when Concubine Su shook it, she got a lot for a unicorn to bring a child. Isn't this heaven's will?"

"The abbot also said in the letter that Concubine Su's horoscope is excellent and perfectly compatible with the emperor's. The abbot said that Concubine Su was born with a fertile destiny. If the emperor meets Concubine Su, everything will go smoothly and his descendants will prosper."

Rong Zhou looked at the Queen's unshakable eyes and sighed helplessly.

"Queen, it's been fifteen years. I haven't had an heir for fifteen years. During this time, I've been unwilling, I didn't believe, I tried hard, but the results were always disappointment. I don't want to be disappointed again."

Rong Zhou sat down and said in a deep voice:

"I've already come to terms with it. It's fine to have only the princess as my child. I have my own plans for the future."

He looked at the queen and comforted her softly.

"Zi Tong, I know what you mean. You've always thought that the lack of children in the harem is due to your dereliction of duty. You're wrong to think so. This is my fault. Perhaps I was injured in battle in my early years, or perhaps I killed too many people and angered the gods, so they no longer grant me children."

"Anyway, this isn't your fault. Stop obsessing over the issue of offspring."

Hearing the word "Zitong", the Queen's body trembled suddenly, tears suddenly appeared in her eyes, her lips trembled, she was silent for a while, and finally gritted her teeth and said:

"Your Majesty, I actually hate it most when you call me Zi Tong."

"Zitong has always been the emperor's nickname for the empress."

"But Your Majesty, this nickname is a thorn in my side!"

The Queen burst into tears, her eyes red. "Zi, having a son, symbolizes that the Queen wants to continue the royal bloodline and give birth to royal offspring."

"This is the Queen's mission and responsibility, but since I became Queen, I have never conceived a dragon heir. Not even the concubines in the harem have been able to conceive a dragon heir. Your Majesty, calling me Zi Tong is nothing but a mockery to me..."

Rong Zhou and the Queen have been together for many years. He is the emperor and the Queen is the queen. For more than ten years, they have each performed their duties.

In his impression, the queen was always dignified, gentle and considerate. He had never seen the queen excited.

This was also the first time he heard the queen open her heart to him.

Rong Zhou's eyes darkened. He had never thought of this before. "Queen, I was negligent. I will never call you like this again."

He knew how difficult it had been for the Queen over the years, and he also knew that the Queen was more anxious about the issue of offspring than he was.

So, he could understand the queen's feelings.

However, after experiencing several failures, he had already given up on having an heir, and his heart was like a pile of dead ashes, unable to be rekindled.

The abbot's letter could not ignite his desire to have children. He was completely disappointed in terms of having children.

The queen sobbed for a moment, then stopped crying. She slowly walked to Rong Zhou with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, will you please try again? Just think of it as a sacrifice for Daqi, for the country of Daqi, and for the people of Daqi."

"The abbot said that Concubine Su was a benefactor of Daqi and would benefit the country. The abbot also said in his letter that Concubine Su had the potential to give birth to a dragon heir."

"I was thinking, Your Majesty has been summoning Concubine Su to sleep with him these days, so let's give it a try, okay?"

"Your Majesty, you dote on Concubine Su anyway. In the days ahead, you should dote on her even more and summon her to bed more often..."

The Queen has made arrangements for Rongzhou.

Rong Zhou really doesn't like being arranged by others, especially when it comes to sleeping with someone else.

His face darkened, with a hint of anger.

"Alright, Queen, there's no need to say anything. I won't believe it anymore! I've already given up on having children. I won't believe the abbot's words. If Queen continues to pressure me, I will never enter the harem again, nor will I summon concubines to my bed."

The Queen was stunned, "Your Majesty..."

"Someone, send the queen back to the palace." Rong Zhou lowered his head and continued to review the memorials, no longer paying attention to her.

The queen left with tears on her face. She was regretting all the way, hating herself for being too impulsive and pushing the emperor too hard. Not only did she not get the emperor's cooperation, but she also made him angry.

The emperor rarely comes to the harem, only two or three times a month.

Fortunately, he has liked Concubine Su recently and summons her to sleep with him twice a month. If this continues, there is still a chance that Concubine Su will become pregnant.

If after today, he really doesn't go to the harem and doesn't summon concubines to sleep with him, then doesn't that mean Concubine Su will have no chance of getting pregnant?

The queen secretly regretted it.
