Sultan Ruo unconsciously tightened his fingers in the face of everyone's scrutiny.
She finally experienced what it meant to be a winner and a loser.
When she was the empress, she could do whatever she wanted to Qu Cheng'an, but now it's her turn to be the fish on the chopping board.
Before the ministers had digested the news, Qu Chengan continued:
"I intend to choose one of my two children as the future heir to the throne."
Upon hearing this, the ministers knelt down and urged Qu Cheng'an to think twice.
After all, he is the child of the former empress, and it is not certain whether he is his biological child!
Qu Cheng'an glanced over and the ministers immediately stopped talking.
"That's settled."
If Sudan knew that he was the only one in the world who could give birth to a child for Qu Cheng'an, his child would definitely be the future crown prince.
Therefore, there was not much commotion when Qu Cheng'an announced that he would make his child the heir to the throne.
Qu Cheng'an looked at Su Danruo as if he was seeking credit, but he found that Su Danruo still had the same indifferent expression as before.
Didn't even look at him.
Qu Chengan's expression of seeking credit froze on his face.
He had no choice but to hand the child back to Sudan Ruo and turned back to his seat.
The banquet returned to its lively state at the beginning.
Qi Xinyuan has been silently paying attention to Qu Chengan and Su Danruo.
When Qu Xiaotan saw Qu Cheng'an coming back, she secretly put medicine in Qu Cheng'an's cup.
He also sent someone to smear the medicine on Sultan's tableware.
Sultanruo only drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and seeing that she and her child would have nothing to do at the banquet, she planned to take the child back first.
When Qi Xinyuan saw Sultan Ruo get up and walk out of the banquet hall, he also stood up and walked out, intending to send Sultan Ruo back to the palace.
Qu Xiaotan knew that Qu Cheng'an would definitely go to Su Danruo's room tonight. She was not anxious at first, but she became a little panicked when she saw a man following Su Danruo out.
After all, she had drugged Sultan Ruo's tableware. If her sister-in-law was bullied by another man, wouldn't her brother kill her?!
Qu Xiaotan quickly pulled Qu Chengan up.
Qu Cheng'an looked at Qu Xiaotan in confusion, "What are you going to do again?"
Qu Xiaotan was so disappointed that she pushed Qu Cheng'an out.
"Didn't you see a man following my sister-in-law out? Aren't you worried that she'd be kidnapped?"
Qu Cheng'an didn't notice that Su Danruo was missing. It was only after Qu Xiaotan reminded him that he realized that Su Danruo had gone out at some point.
He walked out quickly, and Qu Xiaotan's hands suddenly felt empty. He stumbled forward and almost fell to the ground.
Qu Xiaotan adjusted her body shape and quickly caught up with Qu Cheng'an.
After Qu Cheng'an followed him out, he found Qi Xinyuan and Su Danruo walking side by side in front.
Qu Cheng'an just felt that Qi Xinyuan was extremely annoying, so he quickly stepped forward to separate the two.
"Didn't you hear what I said at the banquet just now, Qi Aiqing? Ruoruo will be my concubine in the future. Shouldn't you be careful to avoid suspicion?"
Qi Xinyuan had just caught up with Su Danruo, and before the two of them had time to talk, Qu Chengan caught up with him.
Qi Xinyuan knew that if he continued to show goodwill to Sudan Ruo, he would be going against Qu Cheng'an, and would not be of any substantial help to Sudan Ruo.
On the contrary, it may make Sultan's life in the palace even more difficult.
Qi Xinyuan took a step back and saluted Qu Chengan respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I just saw Miss Su and Sang'er carrying the prince and princess out, and I was worried that the road was slippery and the little girl might not be able to walk steadily and the prince and princess would fall, so I followed to see.
Since Your Majesty is here, I will not disturb you any longer. I will take my leave now."
Before leaving, Qi Xinyuan secretly glanced at Su Danruo.
Seeing Sudan Ruo looking at him with the same forbearing eyes, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Qi Xinyuan withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and did not look at Su Danruo. After getting Qu Cheng'an's permission, he turned and left.
Qu Cheng'an looked at Su Danruo, but found that she was staring at Qi Xinyuan's back.
Qu Xiaotan was worried that the war would soon spread to her, so she left the scene tactfully.
Qu Cheng'an took the prince from Sang'er's arms and signaled Sang'er with his eyes to step back first.
Sonny was worried that the Sultan would stubbornly stand there and refuse to leave.
When Sudan came to his senses, he was worried that Sang'er would anger Qu Cheng'an, so he gave Sang'er a look and Sang'er left reluctantly.
Qu Cheng'an carried the child and walked towards Sudan Ruo's bedroom.
Qu Cheng'an took big and fast steps, and Su Danruo could only try hard to keep up.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the road became a little slippery. Sudanruo almost fell when passing a turn.
Qu Cheng'an quickly freed up one hand to support Su Danruo, so that Su Danruo would not fall down while holding the child.
Qu Cheng'an then slowed down and walked side by side with Sudanruo.
When he was about to reach Sultan Ruo's bedroom, he suddenly felt dizzy and a little hot.
She shook her head, thinking that she was wearing too thin clothes and caught a cold, so she didn't take it seriously.
After they entered the house, Sudanruo first put the child on the crib, and finally took off her coat because she was too hot. She felt more and more dizzy and even a little unsteady.
When I looked at Qu Cheng'an, I saw double.
Seeing that Sudan Ruo's face looked a little strange and his eyes were a little dazed, Qu Cheng'an called the wet nurse to take the child away first.
Qu Cheng'an stepped forward and wanted to support Su Danruo. Su Danruo wanted to push Qu Cheng'an away, but he lost his balance and fell into Qu Cheng'an's arms.
