Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby

Chapter 128 The Emperor Can’t Do This

"Rui'er!"

"Mother!"

"Since you still want to take Rui'er away, why did you bring Rui'er here and give us mother and son more hope?"

"Why so many whys? My master thinks you're too slow, so he asked me to ask you if you still remember this son and if you still want him."

The Queen Mother's excitement calmed down a little after hearing this.

But Zhongli Rui was not calm, and excitedly tore the cricket pupae in An San's hands.

"Mother, please save me. I don't want to go to that place anymore. It's not a place for human beings."

But the Queen Mother no longer had the impulsiveness she had just now. She calmly sat on the bed, exuding the majesty of a Queen Mother.

"Ask the Emperor to give me another month and I will give him a satisfactory answer. But if anything happens to my son during this month, I don't mind going all out."

"It's no use telling me. I'm just a messenger. The Emperor gives you five days. For every extra day, I'll collect an additional 10% of the Yao family's assets as food expenses for His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

"you……"

Without even listening to her, An San grabbed the Second Prince by the collar and turned away. In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared.

The Empress Dowager was left alone in the Cining Palace, where she smashed a lot of things in anger.

Before dawn, Leng Qingyi was dressed neatly with the help of Nie Yueming.

After getting used to Zhongli Yuan doing these things, I always feel a little awkward when I let others do them.

The contrast between the two highlighted Zhongli Yuan's thoughtfulness, which made Leng Qingyi feel a little strange.

"Go and have someone notify them that the morning court will be held one hour later this morning."

"Yes, if the adults ask how should I answer."

"Just say that Concubine Yi's injury has healed and I'm going out of the city to pick her up."

Nie Yueming's heart was in turmoil. He really didn't expect that Concubine Yi was still alive.

Not only did he come back alive, but the most important thing was that the emperor had to go out of the city in person to welcome him.

"Yes, I will pass the message on right away."

Leng Qing waved his hand and had breakfast alone.

In the past, I didn’t feel anything when Zhongli Yuan was with me, but now that he is not around, I feel everything is inconvenient.

The handkerchief to wipe my mouth and hands is not at hand, and the dishes I like to eat are not in front of me.

Although they are just small things that require manual labor, I am used to having people take care of me, and now that I am alone, the difference is huge.

Nie Yueming went out and asked the eunuch to pass on a message. When he came back, he saw that the emperor was having dinner alone. Little Lizi, who used to accompany the emperor in everything, was not there.

After Leng Qingyi finished eating, he carefully asked, "Your Majesty, why isn't Xiaolizi with you today?"

Leng Qing thought about it and felt that this was not a difficult matter.

An Er has now been repaired and can function normally. Having her disguised as Xiao Lizi and staying by Zhong Li Yuan's side will provide an extra layer of protection.

"I have asked him to go out of the palace to pick up Concubine Yi first. From now on, he will serve Concubine Yi."

This made Nie Yueming a little confused about the emperor's thoughts.

From his observations over the past two months, he knew that the Emperor had a special feeling for Xiao Lizi, and they even had an ulterior motive.

Now Xiao Lizi was sent to serve Concubine Yi.

After all, he misunderstood the relationship between the emperor and Xiao Lizi.

Or was it that Concubine Yi was particularly important to the emperor, so he sent the most favored eunuch around the emperor to serve her.

"Have the sedan chair prepared. I will be leaving in it today."

"Yes."

Nie Yueming went downstairs again to prepare.

Long before the emperor said he would go out in person to pick up Concubine Yi, he had already had people prepare the sedan chair for Concubine Yi to ride in.

But no one expected that the emperor would not ride a horse but a sedan chair when leaving the palace this time.

But it doesn't matter. The dragon chariot is unique and has always been prepared for the emperor, so there is no need to rush.

By the time Leng Qing rinsed his mouth, the sedan chair was ready and parked in front of the door of the Yangxin Palace.

The time for court attendance was approaching, and most of the civil and military officials had already arrived and were waiting outside the palace gate, waiting to enter the palace together when the time came.

However, he did not expect that the young eunuch serving in front of the emperor would come and tell him that the morning court session would be postponed for one hour.

When asked the reason, it turned out that Concubine Yi was going back to the palace today, and the emperor even postponed the morning court to go and greet her in person.

Sure enough, after a while, the emperor rode out of the palace on his dragon chariot.

The ministers discussed the affairs of the emperor's harem in low voices in groups of three or four.

"It's been two years since the Emperor ascended the throne and there hasn't been a single piece of happy news from the harem. It's really worrying."

"Who says it's not true? Now that the Emperor has no children and yet he wants to lead the army himself, what should we do?"

"By the way, isn't Lord Su's daughter also in the harem?"

Several officials turned their attention to Su Shen who was standing aside.

He wanted to go up and ask, but was hesitant because of Su Shen's usual indifferent attitude and the fact that he was in charge of the official assessment.

"Forget it. His daughter seems to be just a talented person. How can she know anything? It's already difficult for her to protect herself in the harem."

"Alas, our emperor is too diligent in his work. If he doesn't go into the harem much, how can he have children?"

"How do you know the emperor rarely goes to the harem?"

"How can we know this? The Emperor is a martial arts expert and a strong man. If he doesn't often go to the harem, how could there be no good news yet?"

"It can't be... Your Majesty is not able to do it."

"Ah...this..."

"How is that possible? The Emperor doesn't look like he can't do it."

"Then why is it that none of the women in the Emperor's harem have reported any pregnancy?"

"How could I know that?"

At some point, Leng Wuqin came close to the few people, happened to hear what they were saying, and coughed twice.

The few people were frightened and looked up to see that it was the Prime Minister with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister."

Leng Wuqin nodded lightly and glanced at a few people.

The sight of this sent chills down the spines of the few people who saw it.

The relationship between the Emperor and the Prime Minister has eased a lot in the past two months. They are really afraid that the Prime Minister will complain to the Emperor.

It only took a few breaths for the faces of several people to go from being embarrassed at the beginning to being filled with ingratiating smiles.

"You are here, Prime Minister."

"Prime Minister, have you had breakfast?"

"Prime Minister, are you tired of standing? How about I bring you a stool to rest on for a while?"

Leng Wuqin didn't give any face to their courtesy at all.

"You gentlemen have been in officialdom for quite some time. I don't need to tell you what to say and what not to say."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"Yes Yes."

"That's what the Prime Minister said."

"The mouth can cause harm, so the adults should be more careful in the future."

After saying that, Leng Wuqin shook his sleeves and walked to the front, waiting for the palace gate to open.

Several people watched Leng Wuqin leave with a wry smile on their faces, and a trace of fear arose in their hearts.

Who gave them the courage to say that the emperor is incompetent?

If the emperor knew about this, who knows how he would punish them.

All the officials waited at the palace gate for more than half an hour before they saw the dragon chariot slowly approaching in the distance.
