After holding the person and lying in the bathtub, Qingdai finally took the time to carefully look at Yan Tingjing's appearance.

Standing like a delicate orchid and a jade tree, with the bright moon in her arms, she is also a first-class candidate for a husband according to the standards of this world.

The only regret is that although Yan Tingjing's family has been upright for three generations and he has assisted the emperor, he is destined to be childless and needs Qingdai to use specific props to get pregnant.

In the original world, he never married. He devoted himself to the court in the first half of his life, and the second half of his life... The script was vague about it, with only a brief sentence, and he died alone.

Qingdai thought that with his status, if he wanted to marry down, the door of his house would have been trampled down by girls from the capital long ago. Perhaps this was also related to the fact that the imperial physician diagnosed that he was infertile at a certain time, so he never got married in his life.

When the system entered this world, it accidentally drew a prop card, and among the randomly dropped props was the fertility potion that is essential for the world of female dominance. Since this prop can only be used in certain specific worlds, it only exists in the randomly dropped equipment prop card and does not exist in the prop mall.

This was Qingdai's first time and she had no experience, so she couldn't use the props.

Qingdai stared at Yan Tingjing, and then thought about how to use the medicine. She appeared as calm as a rock, but her heart was actually trembling slightly.

Even though she had lived through so many lives and seen so many things, she had to try hard to suppress the heat in her cheeks at this moment.

After bathing, the palace maids brought him clothes, and after being dressed neatly, Yan Tingjing turned back into the calm prime minister.

He sat upright and serious.

Qingdai was also beside him, being naturally gentle and affectionate, and reached out to play with the jade belt hook on the Prime Minister's official robe.

"Tell me...why are you angry with me?"

Yan Tingjing was helpless, but seeing that His Majesty was not going to let him off easily, he could only speak softly:

"I am awaiting your Majesty's instructions. It is not appropriate to reveal my relationship with you too early."

As a man, Yan Tingjing's position as prime minister in the court is a major event that shakes the women's court. His movements are particularly important. Many forces are investigating. Qingdai has just started to take back power. Exposing their relationship too early will do them more harm than good.

Qingdai looked at him meaningfully.

Based on her understanding of the male protagonist, no matter which life or what his identity was, he should not be so timid.

Considering that he didn't know that this body had a new shell, he was allowed to pass for now.

The two of them stayed in Qiwu Palace for two hours, during which time Qingdai quietly reviewed memorials. At her special instruction, the part belonging to the prime minister was also moved into the palace.

At dusk, the sound of a distant purple bell could be heard from outside.

Yan Tingjing had not left the palace since the morning court session today, and he was indeed about to leave now.

Qingdai tugged at his jade belt hook and whispered, "Have dinner with me before returning home."

Before he could finish his words, a report from a eunuch came from outside.

"Your Majesty, the Second Princess has entered the palace and is now outside the palace requesting an audience."

Qingdai frowned slightly and secretly said it was bad luck.

Yan Tingjing noticed her subconscious little action just now, and vaguely felt the emperor's disgust towards the visitor.

This is unlike her. In her previous life, she treated the Second Princess like a sister and never did such a small thing.

A hint of doubt arose in Yan Tingjing's heart, but Qingdai's abnormality only lasted for a moment, and she returned to normal the next moment.

"Let the imperial sister wait outside first..."

"Your Majesty, since the Second Princess has arrived, I will take my leave."

Seeing Qingdai was about to refute her, Yan Tingjing reached out and shook her hand.

"There is an early court tomorrow, I will come again..."

Yan Tingjing's ears turned red with annoyance as he said such unrestrained words.

This was the first time Qingdai saw Lord Yan like this. It was so novel. How could she refuse his request?

"Then promise me that you will stay with me all day tomorrow, or I won't let you leave."

Qingdai pinched his chin and leaned over to kiss his pale, thin lips.

"A gentleman should not break his word."

Yan Tingjing gripped his sleeves harder and hummed softly.

*****

After Yan Tingjing left, Qingdai ordered someone to inform the second princess to come in.

Soon a heroic woman came into the hall. When she saw Qingdai, she saluted her with her fists clasped.

"Your Majesty, your sister greets you."

The second princess waited for a long time, but no one came to help her. She felt a little surprised. In the past, this incompetent princess had always been very familiar with her when she saw her, and would not even let her salute in private. She was just pretending, but this time she did not have the enthusiasm of the past.

Qingdai's eyes were fixed on the eunuch who followed the second princess in with his head lowered. Her eyes fell on the man carelessly and gradually turned cold.

"No need to be polite, my sister, please get up."

The second princess quickly suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, turned around and ordered the people behind her to take off their clothes.

"Your Majesty, you haven't seen Young Master Yan for many days. Do you miss him? Young Master Yan said there was some misunderstanding with Your Majesty, so he asked the Imperial Sister to bring him in. The Imperial Sister thought that Your Majesty might have something to discuss with Young Master Yan, so she brought him in."

The man dressed as a eunuch behind him lowered his hood and it turned out to be Yan Li.

At the same time, Yan Tingjing, who was standing outside the palace gate and had not walked far, stared at the very familiar back of the person entering, his eyes gradually turning cold.
