Concubine Wen's face was full of emotion: It turns out that my daughter understands me best.

Concubine Wen sighed, "Yesterday, when your father was angry and wanted to punish the Li family, Concubine Li Jia knelt outside the Xuanshi Hall to plead for mercy, and she fainted from crying."

"Old Doctor Zhang took a look and it was a positive pulse."

Concubine Wen was speechless as she said this, and looked at her daughter, "Congratulations, Abao, you are going to be the emperor's sister."

As if struck by lightning, A Bao blurted out, "Is my father still okay?!"

Fortunately, it happened in the inner hall of the East Palace, and Hongxiu and Lulang were guarding outside the palace door, so Abao's exclamation did not reach the old emperor's ears.

But after taking a sip of hot tea strangely, A Bao sighed sincerely, "It seems that the medicine that father took is really effective! Wow! Father is still strong and healthy!!"

Concubine Wen poked A Bao on the forehead with disdain, "Are you stupid?"

A Bao was confused: "?"

Concubine Wen said: "If Concubine Li Jia gives birth to a prince, your father will probably want to change the crown prince."

A Bao's face was as gloomy as water and he remained silent.

But deep down, she had already quickly taken stock of the situation.

In her previous life, Concubine Li Jia was not pregnant.

When she lived a new life, why did Concubine Li Jia become pregnant with the emperor's heir?

As Concubine Wen said, if the fetus in Concubine Li Jia's belly was a prince, once born, it would definitely pose a threat to her position as crown prince.

At this moment, A Bao remembered what Xuanyuan Wu said in the water dungeon.

He said, Emperor Xuanyuan Yang, as long as I am alive, you will never be able to sit firmly on the throne of Emperor Daqi.

A Bao chuckled coldly, feeling deeply ironic.

I wonder what Xuanyuan Wu would feel if he knew that Concubine Li Jia was pregnant with the prince.

"As soon as Concubine Li Jia became pregnant, Father forgave the Li family." A Bao's smile grew colder. "It seems that Father has high hopes for the fetus in Concubine Li Jia's belly."

Concubine Wen adjusted the jade hairpin on her temples and said gently, "Abao, what are your plans?"

A Bao wrapped himself tightly in the fox fur, his eyes gloomy.

In her previous life, it was only three years from the time she was named Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace to the time she ascended the throne as emperor.

The old emperor will eventually die, and by then, Concubine Li Jia will be holding nothing more than a two-year-old child in her hands, who probably won't be able to speak clearly.

She needn't worry too much.

Right now, her most ruthless and ruthless opponent is Pei Guichen.

After weighing the two evils, Abao made a decision.

She lazily grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said as she ate them, "Don't worry, mother. I won't be defeated by a two-year-old child."

Concubine Wen reminded, "The Concubine Li Jia behind the child was promoted three levels in one year after entering the palace, and finally became a concubine. She is not an easy person to deal with."

Ah Bao brought all the sunflower seeds he had eaten to Concubine Wen and coaxed her, "Mother, it's because of your kindness that Concubine Li Jia can live well in this palace. If you really want to fight Concubine Li Jia, she will not be able to fill your teeth."

Before she finished speaking, Concubine Wen smiled and glared at A Bao, gently scolding, "You, you make me sound like a man-eating she-devil, how creepy."

After a pause, Concubine Wen carefully warned again, "Don't say this again in the future."

Of course Po understood.

She just wanted to please her mother.

She changed the subject and deliberately joked, "Father is so old and strong, why haven't you done anything in all these years, mother?"

"I am actually looking forward to my younger brothers and sisters. It will make Guanju Palace more lively."

Concubine Wen laughed and said, "With you and Wu'er as my two rascals, I don't have the energy to raise other children."

After she finished speaking, Concubine Wen’s smile froze.

A Bao also lowered his eyes, hiding the helplessness and sadness in his eyes.

After being silent for a moment, Concubine Wen suddenly muttered, "Abao, find out where Prince Wu is buried for me. Burn more paper money for Prince Wu, so that he won't be bullied by the ghosts of the underworld when he is on his way to the underworld."

A Bao's heart ached dully.

There is no burial place.

The old emperor was so cruel that Xuanyuan Wu had faked his death by self-immolation, so he now wanted Xuanyuan Wu to be burned to ashes.

The ashes will be poured into the Min River outside the imperial capital and flow away with the river.

But Abao didn't dare tell Concubine Wen about this.

Seeing that Abao was silent, Concubine Wen reminded him again: "Abao, you have to keep this in mind. After all, he is your fifth brother."

Ah Bao could only lie and force a smile, "Yes, I understand."
