"Actually, I still believe in His Majesty's feelings for the Empress and you. His Majesty previously misunderstood you as not being his biological son, yet he spared your life and also preserved the Empress's position..."
Xu Lingyi knew that the emperor had voluntarily abdicated in his previous life. After the queen's death, the emperor became disheartened and no longer had any interest in state affairs.
"Your Highness, perhaps you don't need to do anything more. If you do more, you'll make more mistakes. His Majesty might even hold a grudge against you. It's better for you to just be a good Crown Prince."
Xiao Chengyou was silent for a long time. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xu Lingyi's heart sank. Did she cross the line?
"Your Highness, Yi'er was presumptuous and said the wrong thing. I shouldn't interfere in these matters."
Xu Lingyi lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
Xiao Chengyou pinched her delicate cheeks, and red marks instantly appeared on her delicate face.
He was actually a little angry at being misunderstood by her.
"Is this the kind of person I am in your heart? Yi'er, you are my wife, you can say whatever you want."
"I know you're worried about me, so how could I be so ungrateful?"
"I misunderstood Your Highness." Xu Lingyi apologized softly, "Your Highness, please don't hold it against me. I won't dare to do it again next time."
"Don't do it again." Xiao Chengyou leaned over and bit her red lips.
Because of what Xiao Chengyou said in the morning, Xu Lingyi waited for him to come back all morning.
If he becomes the crown prince, she will be the crown princess.
The court was extremely lively at this time.
"Your Majesty, if Your Highness cannot have an heir, how can he assume the throne of Crown Prince again?"
"Offspring are closely related to the country and its people. If there are not many offspring, even the slightest accident will cause unrest. When that happens, the world will be without a ruler, and the people will suffer. Your Majesty, please reconsider this."
"I second the motion."
"I second the motion."
The emperor had long anticipated that his ministers would have such thoughts, before he knew that Xu Lingyi was pregnant.
He thought that only by drawing blood could he suppress it.
Now these people's lives are saved because of Xu Lingyi.
For the sake of You'er's offspring and his grandson, he was willing to kill less.
"Who told you that the prince can't have children?"
All the civil and military officials in the court: “…”
Of course, Your Majesty said it yourself that day, and this was also an important reason why Xiao Chengyou was deposed that day.
"My daughter-in-law, Xu, has been pregnant for several months."
"You nobles, do not need to worry about the Crown Prince's heir."
