The Murong Dynasty has lasted for more than a hundred years, and now it is the twelfth year of Yongzhao.
Emperor Yongzhao Murong Yan was the second legitimate son of the late emperor. He had been a wealthy and comfortable prince for the previous seventeen years until his elder brother, the late crown prince, died in danger while traveling, and the battle for the throne began anew.
With the support of the Queen Mother, Murong Yan was established as the new crown prince. While competing for the throne, he searched for the murderers of the previous crown prince and killed them all.
Because of the fight for the throne, only three of the previous emperor's more than ten princes were left in the end.
One is the Night King, who has been Murong Yan's follower since childhood and was not affected. One is the paralyzed Prince An. And one is the romantic and philandering Prince Chu, who only loves beauty and not power.
It was also at that time that Murong Yan's reputation for being cold-blooded, murderous, and tyrannical spread.
The previous emperor also died unexpectedly at the hands of a newly selected beauty in the palace, so after a year-long struggle for the throne, Murong Yan successfully ascended the throne at the age of eighteen.
After Murong Yan ascended the throne, the empress dowager strictly controlled the emperor's sexual life, fearing that he would repeat the mistakes of the previous emperor, so she required him not to enter the harem before he was twenty years old.
When celebrating Murong Yan's 20th birthday, the Night King took the opportunity to poison Murong Yan's wine, causing Murong Yan to become impotent.
His idea was very simple. As long as Murong Yan couldn't have children, when adopting a child in the future, he would definitely choose the one with whom he had the best relationship.
Unfortunately, the Night King was discovered due to a slight mistake. However, there was no antidote for this poison. Even if the Night King was executed, it would not change the fact that Murong Yan was impotent.
So Murong Yan is now thirty years old, but still has no children.
Dan Ruo was puzzled: "In the previous life, wasn't the emperor unconscious, and the queen took control of the government with her young son?"
The Wheel of Reincarnation explained, "The Emperor will be killed in half a month. The Empress and the Imperial Army have used a sinister method to extract the Emperor's soul, so the Emperor will remain in a coma. The Empress has taken control of the court."
Dan Ruo thought to herself that now that she was married and had become the prime minister's wife, she had to give birth to a child for Emperor Yongzhao.
Emperor Yongzhao is about to fall into danger. Fortunately, after being tempered in several worlds, his spiritual power has greatly increased, so saving Emperor Yongzhao should not be a problem.
After Dan Ruo understood the situation, he felt his stomach was empty. The original owner had eaten an egg in the morning and had managed to hold on until now.
It’s better to eat first and then complete the task.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and a simple and honest little maid walked in with a face full of grievance.
"Miss, I just went to the front yard to ask around and was told that the Prime Minister has already rested in his study.
Today is the girl's wedding night, and the Prime Minister has left her alone. How could he treat her like this?"
Danruo knew that this was the original owner's maid Yuchuan, who had always been loyal to the original owner. When the original owner was slandered for adultery by Mu Peiyuan and was about to be executed, Danruo protected the original owner with her own body and finally died with the original owner.
The one dozing off next to the wedding bed was another maid of the original owner, Jin Chuan.
He had been bribed by Lin Shushu a long time ago, and often spoke well of Lin Shushu in front of the original owner, helping Lin Shushu to fool the original owner.
Danruo took Yuchuan away from the guards and found the best restaurant in the capital for a midnight snack. Yuchuan was terrified.
But seeing his daughter looking calm and composed, his anxious heart was attracted by the delicious food in front of him.
In the next room, Murong Yan was feeling a little depressed because the Queen Mother had asked him to discuss the matter of adopting a child during the day.
He knew his own physical condition, so he had no objection to adopting a child.
The Queen Mother wanted to find a newborn baby from the royal family, bring it to the palace, and pass it off as the child of a concubine. He had no objection to this.
After all, the only people in the world who knew about his physical condition were the Queen Mother and the leader of his secret guards, and he didn't want to tell anyone else about his condition.
So the Empress Dowager's method was the best, but the Empress Dowager wanted to give the baby to Concubine Shu to raise, while she herself wanted to give the baby to the Queen to raise.
Shufei Ruizhu was originally a maid in the Empress Dowager's palace. She blocked a sword for Murong Yan, who was still a prince, and her body has been weak ever since. Murong Yan was grateful for her life-saving grace, and appointed her as Shufei after he ascended the throne.
Queen Ming Liuli was originally the unmarried wife of Murong Yan's brother, the former crown prince.
Because she was described by the old imperial teacher as having the destiny of a phoenix since she was born, the late emperor, who believed strongly in destiny, assigned her to the crown prince.
After the death of the former crown prince, Ming Liuli decided to commit suicide for love.
After hearing this, the late emperor appointed her to Murong Yan as the Crown Princess.
After Murong Yan ascended the throne, he appointed her as queen and always respected her as his sister-in-law. Ming Liuli fasted for many years for the late prince, and Murong Yan always admired the relationship between her and her brother.
But the Queen Mother hated Ming Liuli very much.
Because the former crown prince had received the news that Ming Liuli was in danger, and hurried out of the city to rescue her, and thus fell into a trap set by several princes.
Murong Yan has been protecting Ming Liuli in front of the Queen Mother, because he felt that since his brother was willing to save her regardless of his own danger, he must care about this woman very much. He is afraid that his brother would hope that Ming Liuli could live well in his afterlife.
This time, Murong Yan adopted the child simply because he thought that the queen came from a prominent family and would definitely be able to raise the child well.
Moreover, the status of being a legitimate child is better for the child.
The Queen Mother refused to agree and brought up the former Crown Prince.
He thought of his brother's care for him in the past, and felt depressed, so he ran out of the palace to drink.
Sitting by the window, I saw a little girl and her maid running out to eat in the middle of the night, and heard the waiter coming and going to deliver the dishes. The girl next door ordered a lot, she was a greedy girl.
He looked at the happy look of the little girl who was ready to go home after having a good meal and drink, and after thinking about it, he decided to send a secret guard to escort her.
Although he has always been diligent in government affairs, he cannot ensure that the security in the capital is so good. After all, they are his own people.
He didn't want to hear any minister come to him for help regarding his daughter. He was destined not to have a child. He would be jealous of other people's fatherly love every day.
It would be great if he could have a child. He would be content even if he lived ten years less.
The secret guard quietly followed Dan Ruo to protect her all the way. After seeing her enter the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he returned to the restaurant to report to Murong Yan.
Murong Yan was surprised. There was no girl of that age in the Prime Minister's Mansion. The only one of that age was the Prime Minister's wife who had just walked in today.
Doesn't the Prime Minister's Mansion provide meals? Lin Cenyi wouldn't come crying to him again in a few days, would he? It wouldn't look good for a grown man to cry like that.
He still reminded the queen to keep an eye on the little girl and not let her suffer any injustice.
