Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Upon hearing this, Tinghe sat down on the ground in disappointment, his fingers trembling and he remained silent. In his sorrow, he even spit out mouthfuls of blood. Fortunately, Tinghe used a handkerchief to cover it in time.

The system seemed to not want to see Ting He in such a depressed state, and after thinking for a long time, it said:

"I have a way to let you possess the substitute puppet with your soul body during this period of time, and then use your soul body to leave a descendant for Zhao Xuruo, but your soul will have cracks, or even be torn into pieces. You may not receive any lucky missions in the next world, and you may even become a beggar."

When Ting He heard that the system was willing to help, she burst into tears and said without thinking:

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, system. After I die, all the money in my private vault will be flushed into the system. Besides, beggars don't have maids, so it won't be that bad."

The system curled its lips and listened to the noise outside getting closer and closer. It anxiously took back the original owner that Tinghe possessed, took out Tinghe's soul, threw it into the substitute puppet, and used a little of its own original power to input it into it so that Tinghe's soul and the puppet could be well integrated.

After everything was integrated, the system said weakly:

"I'll leave you the access page of the system mall. If you need anything, take it and save it yourself. I need to rest and recover my energy during this period. Remember, you only have 10 months. When the time is up, you will disappear directly, and the original body will automatically come back to replace you."

Ting He's tears were dripping down her cheeks, and she asked anxiously:

"System, are you okay? Did you lose a lot of energy to extend my life? Is it serious? Go and have a good rest. I'm fine. I will leave after giving birth to the baby for His Majesty. I will definitely not hold you back."

The system sighed helplessly and said nothing more. Instead, it directly cut off the connection and went to replenish its energy.

……

The soul body and the substitute puppet merged very well, but Ting He still felt awkward using it, and it was a little hard to control the swing of the body. After trying for a long time, she still couldn't figure it out. Just when she was worried...

At this time, Haitang was jogging in front with His Majesty, and the imperial physician was following closely with a medicine box on his back. Nanny Kang was supporting the Queen Mother and they walked quickly. A group of people pushed open the door of the inner hall of the Changqiu Palace.

Ting He fell to the ground, the tear marks on her face still not dry. Seeing this scene, she stood there in embarrassment.

His Majesty the Emperor ran up with concern, lowered his head, held Tinghe in his arms, and went straight to the inner room.

Ting He only reacted when she was placed on the bed, and whispered to His Majesty:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'm fine. I just had a lychee stuck in my throat."

His Majesty the Emperor ignored her words and ordered the imperial doctors to take turns to check on the patient's pulse. In the end, they reached the same conclusion.

The doctor said:

"Her Majesty, there is nothing wrong with your health. Although she is not healthy, she has no other symptoms. It is just that she may have been too tired and overthinking in the past few years, which may have hurt her heart and lungs. She just needs to take some medicine for a few days to recuperate."

His Majesty was relieved and asked the imperial physician to leave a prescription before letting them leave. The two of them stayed by the bed for a while.

The Queen Mother simply couldn't bear to watch it. She glared at the two of them angrily, then angrily asked Nanny Kang to help her leave quickly.

The harem is a place with weather vanes. Knowing that His Majesty favored Concubine Xian alone and stayed in Changqiu Palace day and night, the concubines became jealous. Concubine Wang was one of them, and the porcelain in the palace was replaced batch after batch.

A group led by the Prime Minister began to urge His Majesty in the court not to only care about women and not care about the world.

His Majesty brought out a series of achievements made by Concubine Xian and severely slapped the faces of the court officials. Some court officials even planned to send people to destroy Concubine Xian's achievements, but His Majesty told them that all of Concubine Xian's industries and policies for developing the country had been implemented and were supervised by people sent by His Majesty himself.

Those who wanted to cause trouble had no chance to do so, and had no choice but to force His Majesty to enthrone the eldest prince as the crown prince and Concubine Wang as the queen as soon as possible.

His Majesty the Emperor was not angry. He said that if Concubine Wang gave birth to another son, she would be made empress immediately, and asked the court officials not to force her anymore. After all, the country was the most important thing. The court officials had no choice because the strength of the Great Xia Kingdom was indeed growing day by day, and it had intimidated many small border countries.

After the morning court session, the Emperor came to Concubine Wang's palace as he had promised in the court. He also asked Eunuch Wang to bring two sets of glass tea sets that had slight flaws and that Ting He disliked, and gave them to Concubine Wang. Then he left on the grounds that he was busy with official business.

After receiving the glassware, Concubine Wang was in a better mood. She didn't care whether His Majesty was staying or leaving, and happily prepared a set. She asked her personal maid to pack it up and sent it back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

……

His Majesty did return to the Qinzheng Palace to handle official business. As it was getting dark, he suddenly thought of having dinner with Tinghe, so he came to the Changqiu Palace.

At this moment, Ting He was eating the meal with gusto. Sometimes she even felt that being a favorite concubine was not bad. There were endless delicious foods, which were simply too delicious.

Although the treasures of this world cannot be preserved and will be automatically recharged into the system when she dies, it is worth it for her to be able to stay here for one more year and spend more time with His Majesty.

She invited His Majesty to have dinner with her. The two talked for a while and discussed some things. His Majesty seemed to be worried and was restless. When she learned that he still had official business to deal with, she sent His Majesty away.

His Majesty thought about it and didn't know how to explain it, so he could only tell what happened in the court. He also said that he would go to Concubine Wang later, take a look and come back soon. It was just a formality and an explanation to the court officials.

Ting He didn't feel any bitterness, just a little uncomfortable. However, she still sent His Majesty out, washed up and went to bed. Without the system chat, she was quite bored. She waved away her attendants and consolidated her body refining skills. Time passed slowly.

In the palace of Concubine Wang.

The imperial concubine, who had just finished dinner and washed up, was having her hair combed by her maid. His Majesty came to visit suddenly, and Imperial Concubine Wang was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out with her hair disheveled. She had to ask His Majesty to wait while she hurriedly got dressed.

His Majesty was not impatient, but just said:

"Since the Imperial Concubine has already rested, I will go back first. Imperial Concubine, please rest early."

His Majesty was very happy. He put everything behind him and quickly returned to Changqiu Palace.

Served by Eunuch Wang, the icy-cold Majesty sneaked into Tinghe's bed, startling Tinghe who was already dozing off.

His Majesty kept pestering Tinghe to talk about Concubine Wang, which made Tinghe laugh tremblingly.

Her Majesty seemed to like holding He and listening to her tell stories, about the court, her childhood, the country, and family, but never about love. She would only express it with her own actions.
