Chapter 1690 Let him dominate the world!
Wu Yingqiu and his son, Wu Ding, walked slowly in the afterglow of the setting sun. Wu Ding was silent for a long time, but he couldn't help but whispered, "Father just saw it, too."
"Um?"
"The Imperial Concubine is very proud of this."
“…”
"She casually dismissed everything my father said."
Wu Yingqiu smiled faintly and said, "She is a noble concubine and is only under the jurisdiction of the harem. In the harem, even the queen has to be wary of her. How can we argue with her?"
"Father, you—"
Wu Ding was speechless because of his calm demeanor.
After a long silence, he continued, "Even if her affairs are within the harem and we can't interfere, her family members are now all over the court. Just before coming to Shazhouwei, a proposal I made in the cabinet was opposed by Gu Tingqiu."
“…”
"It's as if they came here specifically to oppose our Wu family."
“…”
"Now, her two brothers are acting so recklessly here again. If they really accomplish something great, once they return to the capital, the emperor will have even more reason to promote them. By then, the power of our Wu family will be truly shaken."
“…”
"Isn't Father worried at all?"
When talking about the Wu family's power being shaken, a shadow flashed across Wu Yingqiu's face, which had always maintained a faint smile.
How could he not know these things?
The imperial court was so small, and the important officials of various departments were originally arranged by the emperor himself in the early days of his accession to the throne, so everything was easy to do. In addition, his own contributions in assisting the king and protecting the emperor made the Wu family even more prosperous.
However, ever since Gu Tingqiu began to emerge, his path has not been so smooth.
Especially the current cabinet situation.
Although Wu Ding entered the cabinet, he was in an isolated and helpless situation. Any proposal he made would be basically useless if it could not pass the review of He Yi and Gu Tingqiu.
However, he did not let this anger control him.
He has understood it very well over the years.
The feeling of anger is unnecessary.
So, he took a deep breath and smiled faintly, "So what if I worry? If you worry, will things develop as you want?"
“…”
Wu Ding had nothing to say.
Wu Yingqiu walked forward with his hands behind his back, saying, "Let's go, hurry back and get some writing materials ready for my father."
"What will father write?"
"Of course, I'm going to write a letter to Concubine Hui."
"To my sister?"
Wu Ding was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it, he came to his senses and said with a smile, "That's right, such a 'happy event' shouldn't be known only to us. Since she is under the jurisdiction of the harem, the harem master should also know about it."
Wu Yingqiu said nothing, just smiled faintly.
The two of them walked back together.

This night passed relatively peacefully.
Early the next morning.
In the emperor's bedroom, on the wide bed, the curtains hung low, and two figures were leaning against each other tightly.
Nan Yan was awakened by the sunlight.
Before I opened my eyes, I could feel the bright sunlight shining on my face. The orange-red light gave me an illusion of warmth. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that the room was already brightly lit.
It's dawn.
And that warm feeling was not an illusion. Zhu Feng was still lying beside her, holding her in one hand as she leaned against his chest.
When I looked up, I found that he had woken up at some point. He was looking down at me with a smile on his face.
Nan Yan had just woken up from her sleep and was still a little dazed. She subconsciously said, "Isn't the emperor going to court yet?"
“…”
Zhu Feng laughed.
She thought they were still in the capital, still in the palace.
So he reached out and pinched her nose: "Why, are you trying to get rid of me?"
“…”
Nan Yan finally came back to her senses and looked around. She finally understood and couldn't help but smile. She knew that now that she was in Shazhou Wei, the emperor didn't have to go to the morning court so early and could stay with her in bed for a while.
This feeling is great.
She smiled and leaned close in his arms, and Zhu Feng held her tighter with one hand.
The two of them just snuggled up to each other like this. Although they didn't need to say anything, it seemed that their hearts were full, which was better than saying a lot of words.
Zhu Feng asked softly, "Are you hungry?"
Nan Yan asked, "How much did the Emperor force me to eat last night? I haven't digested it yet, so why am I hungry?"
"You need to eat more."
“…”
"Eat more, so you can give birth to a fat boy. In the future, I will teach him all my martial arts and let him conquer the world!"
Hearing this, Nan Yan felt a little uneasy.
But at this moment, in such a warm situation, she didn't want to say anything to spoil the fun. After all, it had only been two months, and there were still eight months left before the baby was born.
What's more, he may not be just a kid.
So, she just smiled and said, "Your Majesty is thinking too far ahead."
"Of course."
Zhu Feng acted as if it was a matter of course, even sitting up a little, holding Nan Yan in his arms as well. The two of them sat leaning against the headboard. He said seriously, "I've heard some people say that a child in their mother's belly can actually hear and feel the outside world."
"oh?"
"He feels whatever people say to him; he can even sense what people teach him."
Nan Yan frowned: "It's just a fetus, how is that possible."
"Whether it's possible or not, I'm serious."
"ah?"
Nan Yan tilted her head and looked at him with a puzzled look on her face.
What serious?
Just as she was wondering, there was a knock on the door and she quickly shrank back into the quilt.
Speaking of which, this has been the nth time that someone has disturbed them early in the morning when they were together.
However, Zhu Feng did not get angry, but quickly put on a coat and walked out.
The door opened, as if Xiao Shunzi said something.
After a while, the door closed again and the footsteps faded away.
Zhu Feng started fiddling with something outside, as if he was arranging something. Nan Yan found it strange, so she put on a coat, gathered her long hair, and let it casually fall behind her head, then walked out in her slippers.
When I looked up, I saw a huge map spread on the ground.
It seemed like the map they had seen in the imperial study before. Of course, this map was different from the previous one. It was not a map of the entire territory of the Great Yan Dynasty, nor was it that large, but it also covered half of the room.
Zhu Feng sat on it, holding some wooden blocks and flags in his hands.
Nan Yan walked over and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
