"Okay, I'll make tea and wait for you."
After she left, Sheng Xiyan did not take advantage of the opportunity to pick her up, but took a walk and chat with Gao Guirong and others.
"Sister Sheng, let's stop talking. We have to go back and prepare for the exam."
"Okay, let's meet again some other day."
Gao Guirong, Lin Wanyi, and Min Guiren said goodbye one by one.
Not only them, but all the concubines went back to study behind closed doors, working hard to get good grades and get the opportunity to sleep with the emperor.
The Imperial Garden was empty, and Sheng Xiyan was the only one in charge.
"My Lady, you should also go back and review your studies and try to get a good grade in the exam."
Sheng Xiyan shook her head.
Hua Xia didn't understand what was going on and advised, "Your Majesty, if you don't make any progress, aren't you afraid that another concubine will be chosen?"
Sheng Xiyan lay on a mahogany chair by the Jade Lake, using a fan to shield her face from the sunlight.
"I am now a living pig that is almost dead. I don't need to make any progress at all."
"My lady, what is the micro-death of a living pig?"
Sheng Xiyan said faintly:
"If it were a dead pig, it wouldn't be afraid of boiling water, but it's a half-dead pig. The boiling water won't kill it, and it can't move. The boiling water hurts, and the pain is uncomfortable, but it can't die."
Hua Xia pondered for a while and asked, "Your Majesty, how about making you honey-roasted suckling pig for lunch?"
Sheng Xiyan said helplessly: "Hua Xia, you are so presumptuous."
Hua Xia stuck out her tongue and laughed, coaxing:
"Your Majesty, please go back and study hard. You will definitely be able to take the top spot, dominate the throne, and then hurry up and conceive a dragon fetus."
"Don't mention children to me in the future."
Hua Xia had no idea about Xuan Ling's secret message to Sheng Xiyan, and she still wanted to persuade him.
Sheng Xiyan sat up and ordered, "If you say anything else, go to the Imperial Hospital and get me some sterilization medicine."
"No more, no more, please don't be angry, Madam."
When it was getting dark, they were nearing the border of Yuzhou.
On a black horse, the young man stood tall and straight like a pine tree, with a pair of heroic eyes under his sword-like eyebrows.
On the other horse was a dark-skinned boy.
"Uncle, what's the name of the next place?"
"We're almost in Yuzhou. Let's speed up and get into the city before dark."
