He couldn't stay in the room for too long, and finally, seeing the emperor sleeping like a dead pig, he left.
When the emperor went to court the next day, he always felt drowsy.
Thinking back to last night, he could only remember Xu Zhiyi lying shyly in his arms.
Every time I woke up at Concubine Xu's place, I didn't feel as tired as the other concubines. I would feel dizzy if I tried hard to recall the past.
I don’t know what’s going on.
After the court session, he remembered that Xu Zhiyi had coaxed him yesterday by saying that the princess's name had not yet been decided. He then ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to come up with a few nice names and let Xu Zhiyi choose by herself.
There should always be some reward for giving birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
He opened the memorials piled on the table and flipped through a few of them. All of them proposed that the crown prince be registered under the name of the queen.
He threw the memorial away and roared:
"They're really getting bolder now! So brazen!"
Ever since the little prince was born, the ministers have been secretly thinking about how to take sides. They had not shown it before, but since the prince was appointed as the crown prince after the full moon, they have been annoyed by the continuous memorials.
The eunuchs serving below were trembling in fear, not daring to make a sound.
After a while, the emperor rubbed his dizzy head and picked up a small bottle of pills from the table.
This is the new pill provided by the alchemist.
The alchemist said that if you take one, you will feel energetic all day long.
Maybe even go for a run.
I heard a lot of rave reviews about it at the time, but I never tried it.
His head was really dizzy, so he opened the bottle cap and felt refreshed as soon as he snorted the liquid.
When poured into the palm of your hand, you will find a black medicine, and the strong medicinal fragrance will fill your nose.
He swallowed one, and the young eunuch hurriedly handed him some water and went forward to gently massage the emperor's head.
Sure enough, the alchemist's medicine has never disappointed me.
A quarter of an hour later, he felt no more headache and back pain, and he felt energetic enough to summon his two concubines again.
He read the memorials again, selecting a few candidates for the queen, and said viciously:
"Leave it to Lu Yan and let him deal with these people!"
It will take more than a day or two to dismantle the Queen's power, so let's get rid of a few of her minions first.
The young eunuch bent his body, took the emperor's memorial with both hands, and walked out.
He hates the feeling of being dominated by others. Some people stretch their hands too far, so don't blame him for being cruel.
"Go and call Doctor Wang for me!"
Not long after, the imperial physician arrived at the Qinzheng Hall, where incense was burning and the smoke was rising.
"Is Concubine Xu's body suitable for pregnancy now?"
Doctor Wang knelt down, pondering how to answer, and finally chose to tell the truth. This was because although Concubine Xu was favored, she was not arrogant at all, and usually spoke to him gently.
"Your Majesty, although Concubine Xu has recovered well, she is still not suitable for pregnancy. She needs to wait at least another two months until her body can withstand it."
When the emperor heard this, he waved his hand and let him go.
Although Concubine Xu is beautiful, she doesn't seem real every time she wakes up. If she can't get pregnant now, he might as well favor other concubines.
He drank another cup of tea and slowly stood up. He was really tired and wanted to find a place of peace and comfort to rest.
Not long after, after the sound of horse hooves, the doors of several ministers in the court were surrounded by people from the Western Factory. No one passing by dared to watch, for fear that they would be arrested.
Lu Yan sat in the sedan chair, watching these people kneel down and cry. They went from being respected ministers to being exiled prisoners, and words were even carved on their faces.
In the shadows, he recalled his original intention of entering the palace, which was to make the emperor become absurd and replace him with a puppet. Of course, in the end he wanted to destroy the dynasty.
When I entered the palace, I took the medicine and no longer thought that I could become the emperor. Now that I have a son, instead of exposing my identity, I might as well do my best to assist my son to become the emperor.
He had never considered having his son registered under the queen's name. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before the emperor deposed the queen, so it would be better for him to hand the raft to the emperor.
He turned his ring, his eyes slightly cold, and Phantom knew that his master was about to leave.
When I returned to my residence, someone came to report everything that had happened in the Qinzheng Hall that day.
He tapped his fingers on the table. "Pregnant in two months?" He was quite anxious.
Phantom stood below, hesitating whether to speak.
Lu Yan took off the jade ring on his thumb and placed it on the table. He said in a slightly cold voice:
"Say, if you keep doing this, you won't have to work here anymore. I think the imperial kitchen is a good place for you."
Phantom quickly knelt down:
"Master, I was afraid of polluting your ears just now. Just now, the people who were watching Xia Xiu'er reported that Gu Jingyan hasn't been to Xia Xiu'er's place for a long time."
"But Xia Xiuer invited a doctor to her home yesterday to check her pulse. The doctor said that the baby is over two months old."
"We had previously judged it unlikely she would get pregnant again, but she couldn't stand the loneliness and started having an affair with the boy next to her. Perhaps she felt she couldn't get pregnant, so she didn't drink the contraceptive soup."
Lu Yan frowned. He hadn't thought that Xia Xiu'er was so extravagant and it had only been a short time.
"Has Gu Jingyan found out?"
Phantom: "They probably don't know yet. Mei'er and Wanqiu have been serving me very well and have been taken into the mansion. However, they have been taking contraceptive soup on time as instructed by their master, and they still have no children."
Lu Yan nodded:
"He's been enjoying the beauties I gave him for free for over half a year. It's really a bargain for him. Promise them both what they need, and then find a suitable time to let them leave. Go and help them with the travel permits and identities."
"Also, take some time to let Gu Jingyan know how the woman he once promised to be with for life is cheating on him. It would be best to catch her red-handed."
Phantom didn't know why his master was going around in circles to deal with Gu Jingyan. If he told him that he was angry with him, he could just get rid of him directly. Why did he have to plan this for so long?
Although he didn't understand, he had to carry out what his master said.
He had heard a saying at the market these days, "Don't try to guess what a woman is thinking."
He felt that his master had become more difficult to predict after meeting Xu Zhiyi.
At night, when Lu Yan arrived at Suiyuxuan, Xu Zhiyi was feeding her daughter.
His little mouth sucked very hard, and Xu Zhiyi's face became hot when he looked at her. A layer of pink appeared on her fair face. She turned her body to the side and changed direction.
"Still shy?"
Xu Zhiyi remained silent, but the tips of his ears began to turn red.
I've already been touched by someone, but I'm still so shy.
Tsk, I haven’t touched it enough. I haven’t touched the places my daughter touched just now.
He raised his hand to pick up his daughter, but unexpectedly Xu Zhiyi dodged backwards.
