Extra: Birth



[Host, your ability to speak is becoming more and more perfect. I almost believe what you said.]

[It's just practice that makes the difference.] She curled her lips proudly.

Jiang Yueyang and Lu Yunting followed Shangshu Jiang as they walked towards the outer hall with Zuo Xiang and others. When Shangshu Jiang heard what she said, he wanted to hit her on the head, but he held back.

He "can't hear" what's in his daughter's heart, so there's no reason for him to scold her.

Jiang Yueyang said with reason: [I can't tell anyone about your cheat, I can't make it up. Besides, even if I tell them about you, they won't believe me and will think I'm crazy.]

The people walking in front: ...No, we believe it.

The system said "hmm" in agreement, [Even if they believe it, the host may be locked up for research.]

Jiang Yueyang shuddered when she heard this. In her previous life, she often heard alarmist remarks such as "slice research" on special groups of people.

But who knows if it is alarmist or not?

Just like the statement that “there are no ghosts in the world”, no one can prove it, including great scientists.

Otherwise, how can we explain those strange phenomena?

"Eh~" Jiang Yueyang looked around, "Where did that white-haired Taoist priest Yun Zhongzi go?"

She remembered that when His Majesty moved to the inner hall, Yun Zhongzi did not follow in, but now he was not in the outer hall either.

[Xiaogua, could it be that he noticed something was wrong and ran away? ] Jiang Yueyang asked hurriedly.

Just as the system was about to answer, a young eunuch on duty in the outer hall replied cleverly, "Master Xiao Jiang, Immortal Yun Zhongzi has returned to Lingxu Palace for some business."

Lingxu Palace is where Yun Zhongzi lives in the palace. It has a quiet room, an alchemy room, and a scripture storage room...

In fact, Yun Zhongzi was imprisoned.

The system also said: [Host, don't worry, the Shenwu Army will protect him 24 hours a day, he can't escape even if he wants to. ]

Jiang Yueyang nodded, relieved.

After leaving Huaqing Palace, she reached out and hugged her father's arm, smiling and said, "Dad, I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"

Minister Jiang snorted and pretended to be unhappy: "My girl, don't you feel guilty for saying this?"

Jiang Yueyang: "..."

"If you really miss your father and me so much, why is it that every time you write back, you only send a few words to greet your father and me, but write several pages to greet your mother and your brother? What's worse is that in the past year, you have only been thinking about your little nephew and have not even asked about your father and me!"

Jiang Xun’s eldest son was born. He is now just over one year old, which is the most fun time for him.

Jiang Yueyang stuck out her tongue guiltily when she heard her father's accusation, and shook her father's arm and acted like a spoiled child: "Dad, a girl should always be closer to her mother. But I've always been thinking about you in my heart. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ah Yue."

After saying that, she secretly pulled Lu Yunting's finger, then winked at him, signaling him to speak for her.

Lu Yunting smiled slightly and helped his wife to say, "Dad, Yangyang has always been thinking about you. During the time she was away, she bought you a lot of gifts."

Minister Jiang was just trying to tease her on purpose, and of course he was a little jealous, but not as serious as he showed.

However, he was still very happy to hear there were gifts, but he still pretended to be serious and asked, "What did you buy?"

Jiang Yueyang immediately smiled and said, "They are all rare things, I guarantee you will like them."

Minister Jiang said "hmm" in a reserved manner, and his eyes swept across the faces of his daughter and son-in-law. He couldn't help but ask, "You are not young anymore, when will you give me a grandson?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Yueyang's cheeks flushed. She lowered her head shyly and glanced at Lu Yunting, only to see that he was also blushing.

Jiang Yueyang coughed twice to ease her shyness, her eyes wandering around, "Dad, having a baby... well... you have to let nature take its course, don't rush it."

"Why can't we be impatient?" Minister Jiang disagreed. "This is a serious matter and should be put on the agenda earlier. Don't just play around. Your son-in-law is not young anymore. Others at his age already have three or four children running around."

Lu Yunting hesitated to speak. He wanted to say that he was only 22 years old, not too old...

However...he couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about having a daughter as cute as Yangyang.

Minister Jiang saw that she was silent and avoided the topic, and then said: "My daughter, the Lu family has been a single-line family for three generations. You can't have that kind of..."

"I know, I know." Jiang Yueyang interrupted her father, "I didn't say I won't have a baby. I will have one, don't worry."

In order to stop her father from nagging, she let go of her father's arm and went to hug Lu Yunting.

Minister Jiang knew his daughter's temper and didn't want to push her too hard, otherwise it would backfire.

Therefore, he stopped talking about having children and changed the subject, "Yangyang, is His Majesty's health really as serious as you said?"

"Well. If Your Majesty continues to take the pills..." She looked around and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid you won't live long."

Minister Jiang's face changed. "If you stop using the elixir, can your Majesty's body recover as before?"

This is what Emperor Yuan wanted to know, and it is also what all civil and military officials wanted to know. After all, that is ten years of life!

Jiang Yueyang didn't know, so he asked: [Xiaogua, can His Majesty's body recover? ]

[The green petals can help him recover, but unfortunately the host has used up all the green petals, and it is unknown when the five-colored flower will bloom again.]

The voice of the system was heard by Zuo Xiang and others who were walking in front, and they couldn't help feeling sad.

Jiang Yueyang said to her father: "There is no way for now."

Minister Jiang knew the reason, sighed, and did not ask any further questions.

【Xiaogua, I suddenly thought of a question. 】

System: [What's the problem?]

[You said Yun Zhongzi came to Your Majesty to get money, but does Your Majesty have any money? ]

[Of course. In the past three years, the output and taxes of the imperial farm alone have brought in a lot of money, not to mention the tribute from Nanzhao!

Since Loge became the king of Nanzhao, Nanzhao has completely submitted to Daxia. The two sides not only trade with each other, but also intermarry. 】

Jiang Yueyang smiled with satisfaction after hearing this. Just as she was about to speak, the system's voice came again.

[Moreover, during this period when the emperor was obsessed with elixirs, he could be said to be a tyrant who would not listen to any advice.

The money that Yun Zhongzi took away was all taken out from the national treasury by your father under the Emperor's pressure. 】

Jiang Yueyang was shocked, [Can my father give it to me? ]

[You're called a tyrant, so you have to give it to me. After all, your father is just a financial officer who manages money.]

Jiang Yueyang sighed, [The misery of working people. ]

[Your father is a sensible man. When the emperor got angry, he obediently took the money. Unlike Kong Jijiu and Lord Wei, they knew that the emperor would not listen, but they kept persuading him. They are still alive today, thanks to the blessing of their ancestors!]

Kong Jijiu & Lord Wei: "..."

Jiang Yueyang seemed to be thinking about something, [In fact, I think His Majesty has not completely lost his mind, otherwise he would have killed someone long ago.

Moreover, the first person to be chopped off must be Lord Wei, he is the toughest! If he didn't die, the other sensible people will surely be fine too. 】

Mr. Wei: "..."
