Which woman in the palace is not afraid of her ugly appearance and indecent behavior being seen by His Highness, and afraid of His Highness being displeased and losing favor? But the young lady is so good, she doesn't avoid suspicion at all?

If I had known this earlier, I would have arranged the crystal pork elbow for lunch, so that His Highness wouldn’t be able to see it and the young lady could eat it without worry.

Well, I have always been a bold and carefree eater~

For the sake of having an heir, Xiao Jinyan came to Hehuan Palace almost every night.

I came very late tonight.

Shen Chuwei felt it necessary to review this kind of knowledge with Xiao Jinyan.

After Xiao Jinyan came out of the shower, Shen Chuwei walked up to him lightly, took his big hand with her small hand, and wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xiao Jinyan couldn't help but feel a little dry in the mouth when he saw this.

Shen Chuwei took Xiao Jinyan to the bed and pulled him to sit down.

Xiao Jinyan went forward and wanted to hug her, but was blocked by Shen Chuwei. Puzzled eyes flashed, "What's wrong?"

Shen Chuwei coughed twice and said, "I have something to discuss with Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei who suddenly became serious and couldn't help laughing: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Shen Chuwei pretended to be profound and told Xiao Jinyan about his familiar professional knowledge and analysis.

After finishing speaking, Shen Chuwei asked: "Your Highness, do you understand?"

Xiao Jinyan pondered for a moment and said, "I understand a little bit."

Shen Chuwei was quite proud, "Your Highness, if you don't understand, you can ask me. I will tell you everything I know."

Xiao Jinyan looked at her steadily, her fair little face full of pride.

"Does this have anything to do with sex?"

Shen Chuwei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and shook his head: "It doesn't matter much."

Xiao Jinyan asked again: "Do you think that I had sex with you only for the sake of having children?"

Shen Chuwei blinked his beautiful big eyes twice, "Isn't it?"

Xiao Jinyan approached her with her sparkling eyes: "What do you think?"

Shen Chuwei asked back: "Didn't His Highness say that we should work harder and harder?"

Xiao Jinyan paused as she spoke: "I did say I would try my best. If you can get pregnant, it would be a good thing."

Shen Chuwei felt that there was a generation gap between her and Xiao Jinyan. A few days ago, he had clearly said that he was working hard for an heir. Did she misunderstand? "Then your highness comes to the Hehuan Palace every night, isn't it to make a baby?"

"Yes and no." Xiao Jinyan answered concisely. He pulled her to lie on the bed and then lowered the bed curtain.

Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan's actions in confusion, until he lay down, held her in his arms, and no longer made any other movements, she felt something was unreal.

These days, Xiao Jinyan has been working very hard.

She raised her head and asked boldly, "Your Highness, aren't you going to work hard tonight?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "Didn't you say that this is a safe period?"

Shen Chuwei: "..." She thought he had changed his personality. It turned out that he did understand some of what she had just said.

After a few days of peace, I tried hard to have a baby but my period came.

Shen Chuwei thought Xiao Jinyan would be very upset when she found out, because she learned from Concubine Xu that both the Queen and the Emperor were putting pressure on Xiao Jinyan.

The result was somewhat unexpected. Xiao Jinyan said: "I'll warm your stomach."

After so much conditioning, the pain during menstruation is not that severe anymore. Even so, Xiao Jinyan will still warm her stomach.

I didn't realize that the cold and aloof prince would be such a warm-hearted man.

When Liu Xi came to report, Xiao Jinyan almost forgot about Xueyan.

Xueyan walked in with small steps and bowed: "May your highness be blessed with good health."

Xiao Jinyan said calmly, "Concubine Xue is not feeling well, so there is no need to come and pay respects to me."

Xueyan walked to the desk in small steps and placed the cakes she brought on the desk. "Your Highness, I have recovered and could not wait to come and visit you. These are the cakes I had prepared. Please have some."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at the pastries on the desk. They were exquisite and delicious, but he had no appetite at all.

"Concubine Xue is thoughtful."

Xueyan was already used to the cold and distant voice and didn't think much about it.

"Your Highness, would you please come to my chamber tonight for dinner? I will have someone prepare wine and delicious food."

"I have to review memorials today, so I'm afraid it will take until late at night, so I won't have time to have dinner with Concubine Xue."

Xiao Jinyan blocked her last words, leaving her no chance to speak.

Xueyan couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, was you so busy these days?"

Xiao Jinyan: "Not really. I was a bit free a few days ago, but I've only started to get busy recently."

Xueyan was so upset after hearing this, but Xiao Jinyan was free and the rash on her face had not healed yet.

After finally recovering, Xiao Jinyan started to get busy again.

She looked at Xiao Jinyan with a look of grievance, "Then Your Highness, can't you take the time to have dinner with me? I haven't had dinner with Your Highness for a long time."

Xiao Jinyan's voice was cold: "I am the crown prince, and I have a lot of official duties to deal with every day. Can't you be more understanding?"

Xueyan choked. As a princess, she had been spoiled since childhood, how could she bear such injustice?

"Your Highness, it's not that I'm unsympathetic. I've been married into the East Palace for some time."

Xueyan was reminding Xiao Jinyan that she had never served the emperor in the imperial palace since she married into it.

Xiao Jinyan was smart and wise, how could he not understand what Xueyan meant? "I was so busy that I forgot how long Concubine Xue had been married into the East Palace. Concubine Xue won't blame me, right?"

Seeing that Xiao Jinyan didn't understand the meaning of her words, Xueyan couldn't help but feel anxious, "How could I blame Your Highness? Your Highness should just take some time to accompany me."

Xiao Jinyan's voice was neither cold nor hot: "Yeah."

Xueyan clutched her handkerchief and looked at Xiao Jinyan shyly: "Your Highness, how long will you be busy tonight?"

Xiao Jinyan: "I don't know either."

Xueyan asked again, "Your Highness, can you rest earlier tonight?"

Xiao Jinyan said: "You keep talking to me now, can I finish my work and rest soon?"

Xueyan's face froze. She glanced at the pile of memorials in front of her. She had no choice but to stand up and bow, "Then I will take my leave first."

Xiao Jinyan: "Yeah."

After Xueyan left the prince's bedroom, she felt regretful and angry when she thought about the days ago when Shen Chuwei had monopolized Xiao Jinyan all night long.

If it weren't for her face, how could Shen Chuwei have the chance to monopolize Xiao Jinyan?

After returning to Qimeng Palace, Xueyan became angrier and more unwilling to accept the situation.

Shui Yao came in holding a green-skinned watermelon, "Princess, this is a seedless watermelon sent by the emperor, you can eat it to satisfy your craving."

"Seedless watermelon?" Xueyan stared at the watermelon for a long time, and suddenly raised the corners of her lips, "Shuiyao, give the watermelon to Shen Liangdi, and tell her that this is a rare seedless watermelon awarded by the emperor."

She deliberately emphasized the word "childless" because she wanted to tell Shen Chuwei that it doesn't matter if she dominates His Highness for a few nights? What if she gets the rain and dew? (End of this chapter)
