Capital City, Imperial Palace.

Winter is coming, and the plum blossoms in the Royal Garden are in full bloom. They bloom proudly against the first snow, and their bright red color is eye-catching in the white snow.

Situ Lin's condition is improving, and it is rare that he and Situ Jin have free time today. It has been a long time since father and son have strolled in the Imperial Garden together, enjoying this rare beauty together.

"How is the fourth child getting along with Princess Junna recently?" Situ Lin was in a good mood today and said with a slight smile: "His marriage has always been a knot between me and the queen. The queen has a weak temper, and he is even lighter than the queen. I I used to say that if his temperament could change with that of Jiaoyang, I wouldn't have to worry about him so much now?"

Situ Jin responded with a smile: "Brother Huang has changed a lot since he came back from the border town this time. Ah Ying met Princess Junna a few days ago, and the relationship between the two has taken a step forward now. Father, you might as well wait a little longer." The royal brother will ask the father for a marriage!"

"When you suggested that he escort Princess Junna back to the capital, I was worried that he would mess things up. I didn't expect that Princess Junna is actually a wonderful person. She can even tolerate the cold temper of the fourth child! "Situ Lin smiled even more.

Situ Jin smiled faintly: "Father, my brother is cold on the outside but warm at heart. Princess Junna is lively. Father, you can rest assured that when he marries Princess Junna, the border town will be completely stable."

"I just want to embarrass the queen and let the fourth child guard the border town. If I really don't make her the queen, she can follow her son to the border town after a hundred years. I have restrained her."

"The Queen will still be accompanied by Jiaoyang. The Emperor can often return to the capital to visit her in the future. The sons and ministers will also be filial to their father and the Queen on behalf of the Emperor."

"Yes!" Situ Lin nodded: "I have been sick these days and have not seen Rui'er. How is he studying his homework now?"

Situ Jin lowered his eyes and replied: "A little playful. Taifu said that he has not been very focused on his studies recently. Erchen and Ah Ying will supervise him. If my father wants to see him, I will take him to the palace tomorrow."

Situ Lin suddenly covered his mouth and coughed twice: "Now that I am getting older, I want to see my children and grandchildren more and more. Now that Hong'er has gone to Yucheng, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to see him. If you don't want to take a concubine, you and the Crown Princess You also need to have more children. You are the prince and you have many heirs, so that you can silence the mouths of those ministers."

"Yes, I know it!"

Situ Jin helped Situ Lin into the warm pavilion next to the plum garden, and the prince hurriedly ordered people to bring hot tea.

Situ Lin took a sip of tea and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Jincheng now has no chief general, and the deputy general is always guarding it. Do you have anyone to recommend?"

Situ Jin thought for a moment and replied: "Father, I think it is better to leave the chief general of Jincheng empty, so let the deputy general take charge. A few days ago, I received the letter of credence from Southern Xinjiang. In a few days, the second commander of Nanjiang Prince Nan Moyan will come to the capital to get married. This person has always been restless. I am worried that he has other purposes when he comes this time."

Situ Lin heard this and snorted coldly: "Southern Xinjiang's ambition has always been there. They came to get married, but I didn't even agree to it! My princess will not marry in such a barbaric land."

Situ Jin sighed: "But what if my father can't stop me?"

Situ Lin paused while holding the tea, raised his eyes and asked, "Are you talking about Fengyang?"

Situ Jin nodded: "I know that my father has always been very fond of Fengyang, but if she is determined and Nanjiang is full of sincerity, I am afraid that the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty will put pressure on my father. After all, in peaceful days, It’s been too long and no one wants to fight!”

Situ Lin put down the tea cup and said calmly: "I have always been very tolerant to her. If she had always been ignorant, then I would have never had this daughter. I can tolerate her willful behavior in small things, but I will never allow anyone to do so in the face of national affairs. Those who collaborate with the enemy and treason include my children."

Situ Jin cupped his hands and said, "My son, I know!"

.........

As soon as Situ Jin returned to the East Palace, Muying handed over Su Cheng's letter.

"Your Highness, this is a letter from Yucheng."

Situ Jin stopped, took the letter, opened it, glanced at the contents, and his expression became subtle.

He turned around and strode towards the inner courtyard, where Rui'er and Zhang Guang were playing in the snow.

His little face turned red from the cold. Hearing the movement behind him, he ran up to Situ Jin on his short legs, took his hand and said, "Father, help me build a snowman!"

Situ Jin stretched out his hand to brush the snow off his head, picked up the hat he threw aside and put it on him: "Be good, go and play by yourself. My father has something to discuss with my mother and concubine. I will accompany you after I finish my work!"

Situ Rui pouted his small lips: "My father is lying. My father said he would accompany me to build a snowman when it snows. You don't mean what you say!"

As he spoke, Situ Rui also stamped his feet, looking very angry.

Situ Jin held his forehead and coaxed with a smile: "Your grandpa Huang asked about you today. If you don't go to school for the past two days, I will take you to the palace to see grandpa Huang tomorrow."

Situ Rui then turned around and asked seriously: "Is Grandpa Huang cured of his illness?"

Situ Jin nodded: "It's alright. Don't you think about Grandpa Huang all the time? Go to bed early tonight. I will take you to the palace early tomorrow morning!"

Situ Rui then smiled: "Then father, remember to build a snowman for me when you are done with your work."

Situ Jin turned around and walked towards the palace. Su Ying could clearly hear the conversation between father and son in the room.

When Situ Jin entered the house, she walked to the door and opened the thick curtain.

Situ Jin entered the room, took Su Ying's hand and walked towards the inner hall.

"How are you today?"

Su Ying was confused: "What's wrong?"

Situ Jin said seriously: "Check your pulse, are you pregnant?"

Hearing this, Su Ying was startled for a moment, and then she said, dumbfounded, "Are you crazy lately? You have to ask me to take your own pulse every day. Does that mean the child can come just as he said?"

Situ Jin told Su Ying what Situ Lin said to him today, and then took Su Ying's hand and said: "Madam, I have been under great pressure recently, and it was difficult for me to attract the attention of those ministers to other places. Now my father is also Targeted me."

"I can think of ways to silence those ministers, but I don't dare to do it to my father!"

Su Ying twitched her lips: "So you transferred the pressure from your father to me?"

Situ Jin hurriedly smiled and said, "I don't dare to do it for my husband!"

As he said that, he stared at Su Ying's belly for a long time and murmured: "It doesn't make sense. I've been working so hard recently, why don't I get any reaction at all! No, although you are a doctor, doctors can't heal themselves. I Go to Tai Hospital tomorrow and ask someone to take your pulse."

Su Ying was speechless. She took Situ Jin's hand and gently placed it on his abdomen, saying softly: "Already have it!"

Situ Jin was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Su Ying's serious look, he had no doubts and was very excited.

"You...you are finally pregnant, I am going to have a daughter..."
