The canopy above her head swayed back and forth. Yue Jiang thought to herself, if Jing Yan were to work so hard every night, wouldn't she be able to get pregnant very soon?
"What are you laughing at?" Jing Yan asked, noticing a hint of amusement in Yue Jiang's low murmur amidst his busy work.
Yue Jiang: "I think Your Highness is exceptionally brave. In just two short nights, the painting album is simply not worth mentioning compared to Your Highness."
Jing Yan: "..."
"Hmm?" Yue Jiang was enjoying herself when Jing Yan suddenly paused. She looked back at Jing Yan, puzzled, "Your Highness, you didn't finish this quickly last night."
Beads of sweat had formed on Jing Yan's forehead, which gathered and fell onto Yue Jiang's body, then flowed down the mountain into more secluded places.

"Your Highness, your back is sore, would you like me to massage it for you?"
Jing Yan was secretly annoyed when he thought about how Yue Jiang had teased him last night. She was too seductive, did she not want children?
Fortunately, there are still five days left.
"No need, I am fine. Today, a prince from the Jade Kingdom has come to the Jing Kingdom as a hostage, so I need to go to the front court as soon as possible."
