*Finally, the emperor interrogated the assassin alone, and no one knew what he found out. Anyway, the emperor no longer favored Concubine Yu from then on.

Two days after the assassin was killed, Yan Wan was more than three months pregnant, and the imperial physician Bao, who diagnosed Yan Wan's pulse, reported it to the emperor. The emperor was surprised and happy to hear it. The queen had ridden a horse and shot arrows two days ago, so he was really afraid that she might have a miscarriage, so he hurriedly asked her to rest well.

Han Xiang saw that she hated the emperor, so she naturally didn't want to bear children for him. Seeing that the empress, who was so talented and beautiful, had to flatter the lustful emperor, she felt even more disgusted with the emperor, so she went to ask for contraceptive soup.

When she went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for medicine, she happened to meet an unfamiliar imperial physician. The physician had a pale face and no beard, and looked a little weird.

However, he told Han Xiangjian something that surprised him. He said that he only had a medicine that could prevent people from getting pregnant, but this was for men. If taken regularly, women would not get pregnant.

Isn't this equivalent to poisoning the emperor? If someone finds out, it will be a capital crime. Xiang Jian refused immediately. But the words of the imperial physician made it difficult for her to move.

The man only said, poor Hanqi, the brave warrior, his body is still warm before he sees his beloved woman giving birth to children for her enemy.

Han Xiangjian took a deep breath and said, "Do you know that what you are saying now are crimes punishable by death?" Xiangjian's eyes became sharp, like the ice on the top of a snowy mountain, freezing people's hearts.

The doctor then said, Rong Guiren doesn't like the emperor anyway, right? Could it be that you have fallen in love with the emperor and are unwilling to temporarily prevent him from getting pregnant?

The doctor added in a sarcastic tone, "Your Majesty will not be harmed in the slightest. Could it be that you are reluctant to do so?"

Seeing such a mockery, Han Xiang immediately took the medicine bag from the man and left without looking back.

After she left, Jiang Yubin came out from the dark and said, "Thank you for your help. This is my reward."

This eunuch was the one Qian Jinzhong had saved and sent to the Ministry of Punishment to work. Jiang Yubin also asked him to pretend to be an imperial physician to fool Rong Guiren.

This medicine is not a temporary sterilization drug, but it completely makes men unable to have children.

The emperor loves his people like his own children, so what does it matter if he has fewer children in the future? All the people in the world are his subjects.

Besides, the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and it is not certain whether he can live to see the birth of the queen's son.

*Two days later, the emperor suddenly fainted after coming out of Chengqian Palace.

For this, Han Xiangjian was reprimanded by the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother did not like the Emperor breaking many old rules for her, and when this happened, Xiangjian was looked down upon by the Queen Mother.

Jiang Yubin hurriedly went to diagnose the emperor's pulse and gave him bad news. The emperor had always been a little weak, and recently he had been busy with state affairs and worked day and night, which had drained his body and damaged his foundation. He needed to be well cared for.

From then on, the emperor would fall ill if he worked a little harder.

He is only over 40 years old this year, and his father died at the age of 58. Could it be that his life span is shorter than that of the late emperor?

The emperor was in a great panic because of this. However, such worries and fears made him more afraid of death, and he could not eat or sleep well, and his health became worse.

*This winter is colder than in previous years, and the bone-chilling cold penetrates right into the cracks between people's bones.

On New Year's Eve, the girls in the Wei Mansion closed their windows and doors, lit a large and warm brazier in the house, and roasted themselves warm. This was their second Spring Festival here, and it was much better than the previous cold weather that froze people.

There were new clothes and plenty of food.

Children from poor families would often save a little extra food as backup when they suddenly had enough to eat. Xi Panshi knew what these children were thinking, and he would turn a blind eye to it until they got used to it.

The little girls ate cakes from every room and the steamed buns they kept for themselves, and stayed up all night with candlelight.

They made a wish, hoping that their master's long-cherished wish would come true, and hoping that their own long-cherished wish would also come true.

After eating, a few active people started to play around again. As they played around, they also started to practice boxing and kicking. Everyone was in high spirits that night and looked forward to the arrival of the next year.

Zuo Lu had been beaten in the evening and was now fast asleep. Mrs. Wei was terrified. Every day when she saw these girls practicing martial arts, she always felt that her crazy daughter was doing something that made their lives unstable.

Xi Panshi was sharpening her knife, grinding it to a mirror-like surface, smooth as water. It would be very useful when chopping people. It was like cutting into a piece of tofu wrapped in a tight branch, but it was also fragile under her strength.

* Yongshou Palace

The New Year's Eve family dinner was over, and the emperor suddenly fell ill. He began to miss the past, and he often asked Concubine Ying to accompany him. Yan Wan was also happy to have some free time.

Yanwan's child is already six months old. But she has always been strong and healthy, and except for not being able to do some large movements, everything else is easy for her.

She didn't drink, but was in high spirits, so she picked up the wooden sword in Yongshou Palace and danced casually.

Her dress fluttered and her sword did not have a cold edge, but this gentle beauty concealed danger.

Jinzhong was watching over her.

When Yan Wan took a few leaps, she stabbed Jin Zhong's throat with a sword. Jin Zhong smiled and said, "Master Ling is very brave. He has captured me as your prisoner just now."

He helped the somewhat exhausted Yan Wan to sit back on the chair, massaged her legs to relax her, and said, "My mistress is pregnant now, and she is still so careless when she is in the mood. She needs to be careful."

Yan Wan smiled softly, exhaled and said, "Since my rebirth, I haven't figured out my future path at first. After I figured it out, I have never neglected my physical exercise. This is just a slight movement, it won't be a problem."

Jinzhong looked at Master Ling's dazzling appearance with a smile, and his hands moved more and more diligently. He said, "I really hope to see the day when you wear..."

Yan Wan stroked Jin Zhong's chin and said only, "This matter was done in secrecy and cannot be told."

Jinzhong nodded and said, "I know. Master Ling, do you still want to read?"

"Look, it's New Year's Eve today, so just go to bed a little earlier."

The lights in Yongshou Palace are still on.

*Noble Lady Ying put on a considerate and gentle smile as she looked at the emperor, whose face was already showing signs of aging.

The emperor looked at her with a nostalgic look and said, "Ying'er."

Concubine Ying suppressed the nausea in her heart and responded shyly.

Looking at the emperor's expectant eyes, Wang Fuzhi secretly took a breath, with a determination to die, and said in a sweet voice, "Brother Hongli~"
