The baby-making system is unreliable

The summer is hot, the sun is scorching, and the heat waves are rolling in, making people feel extremely stuffy.

The sky was as blue as a gem, without a single cloud in sight. The sun shone directly down, and the ground was baked so hot that it seemed to be burning.

Yun Xirou was wearing a light pink long dress, the hem of which fluttered in the wind like a blooming peach blossom.

Her long hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, gently brushing against her fair skin. In her hand was an exquisite food box, which contained water chestnut and sugarcane juice that she had made herself.

"Well, the weather is really hot!" Yun Xirou murmured to herself while fanning herself with her hands.

She looked up at the sky. The sun was high in the sky, shining brightly, making people squint their eyes.

"Oh, I wonder if he likes it? I can only try it!" Yun Xirou muttered to herself, with a worried look on her face.

She bit her lip lightly and looked at the food box in her hand with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Water chestnuts and sugar cane are both cold in nature, and have the effects of clearing away heat, detoxifying, expelling cold and relieving cough. Cooking them together has a sweet and attractive taste, and is a kind of therapeutic food.

I just wonder if it suits his taste? Yun Xirou had heard that he had a severe cough, but she had never actually heard it.

Suddenly, remembering what Princess Shuyao said yesterday, she made some food that might help relieve his cough.

Xia Mo followed behind with a chuckle and said, "My queen, no matter what, this is your intention. His Majesty will like it."

She saw that His Majesty was not indifferent to the Empress, and that only if the Master treated them well could they live a better life.

Yun Xirou walked slowly along the gravel road, with her right hand against her forehead, trying to block the scorching sun.

The gravel road is lined with green trees, and the green leaves sparkle in the sun, but still cannot resist the invasion of the scorching heat.

But in a moment, Yun Xirou arrived at the door of his imperial study. There were two young eunuchs guarding outside. When they saw her coming, they walked up to her and greeted her in a fawning manner.

"Your Majesty, you've come just in time. His Majesty and the Princess are here!!"

After hearing what the servant said, Yun Xirou nodded and lowered her brows and was about to push the door open when she heard a few coughs from inside. His cough was so severe.

The voice was low and hoarse, as if filled with endless pain and exhaustion. Her heart tightened, realizing that his condition seemed to be more serious than she had imagined.

She stopped and stood quietly at the door, listening to the noise inside. Every cough made her feel like he was going to cough to death in the next second, and she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

Princess Shuyao seemed to drop something on the ground, and then she said in a warm and angry voice, "Good fellows, you are all a bunch of rubbish. You can't even see Master Leyuan?!"

Master Liaoyuan? The Master Liaoyuan who became a monk when he was a teenager, entered the Buddhist monastery, cut off worldly ties, and translated many scriptures in the past 30 years?

It is said that his residence before his travels was the Bishui Temple, a thousand-year-old temple standing by the water next to the Pei River, just one mile west of the capital.

Master Leyuan just returned from his travels this month. I think he must have wanted to see Master Leyuan for a medical consultation.

At the same time, the coughing sound inside suddenly seemed to have become much quieter. Xu Yimo's gentle voice rang out, saying, "Arou, you're here! Then come in!"

Yun Xirou was stunned for a moment, wondering how he knew that, but her hands moved faster than her brain. She took a deep breath, gently pushed the door open and went in.

The study is decorated simply and elegantly, and the desk is filled with documents and books.

There was a faint smell of herbs in the air. She walked in slowly, her eyes falling on the frail figure.

He was half leaning on the recliner, his face was as pale as snow, his lips were bloodless. When he saw Yun Xirou come in, the corners of his mouth raised a smile.

Yun Yurou bowed to the two of them one after another. Princess Shuyao saw that it was her and the food box in her hand and couldn't help but teasing, "Xiao Mo is so lucky. It's different to have caring people around you."

"This is what I should do. I made some water chestnut and sugar cane juice to relieve cough and summer heat."

Yun Xirou walked to the desk, placed the lunch box on the table, opened the lid, and a cool breeze blew towards her.

"I just don't know if Your Majesty likes it? The Princess wants to try it, so I'll ask Xia Mo to bring one over!"

She smiled as she looked at the water chestnut and sugarcane juice in the food box, hoping that the coolness and sweetness could relieve his cough.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Xu Yimo's eyes were full of surprise one moment, but the next moment, his eyes seemed a little stiff? ?

"Pfft... you are really... quite smooth. I won't bother you anymore, sister. If you are free, maybe come to my princess residence for a gathering?!"

Xu Shuyao looked at her brother's somewhat jealous expression, covered her mouth and smiled, then she understood what was going on and said a few words casually before leaving.

Her brother must have been touched at one moment, and then thought that she also had food to eat, and that the girl from the Yun family did not put him first in her heart.

"We'll see each other later. I want to go to the Bishui Temple first and try my luck. Let's go!"

Xu Shuyao said this as if she was about to do it, she was in a hurry and looked decisive.

Hmm... they look completely opposite in temperament to Xu Yimo, one is impatient and has a hot temper, the other is slow, gentle and calm.

"Amo, how do you know it's mine?! Give me some face and try my cooking!"

Yun Xirou walked gently to his side, reached out and held his hand. His palms seemed to be sweaty.

"Amo!? Don't you want to try it?"

She called his name softly, but he didn't respond. When she looked up, she found that he seemed a little angry?

Xu Yimo sighed lightly and quietly suppressed his emotions. He looked at the food brought to him by the person in front of him, and his nostrils were filled with her faint body fragrance.

"Arou, you smell great! So, I know it's you."

After saying that, Yun Xirou didn't say anything, but the ends of his ears turned bright red, he was really innocent.

"How are you? Are you feeling better? I was outside just now and heard you coughing badly."

Yun Xirou fed him half a bowl and looked at him with a frown, still a little worried about him.

Somehow, it seems to be much better now! ? Is this sugar cane water really effective? !

"It's much better. This tastes sweet. I like it very much."

Xu Yimo said this, his eyes flickering with satisfaction and joy. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

The sweet taste spread on the tip of his tongue, making him feel an unprecedented comfort and relaxation, and the taste lingered in his mouth.

"As long as you like it, I'm glad you like it. I think you've been taking medicine since you were a child, so you probably don't like the taste of medicine anymore. Making some therapeutic food will always taste better than medicine!"

Yun Yirou smiled and said in a gentle and kind voice. She gently stroked the bowl in her hand, her eyes revealing her care and consideration for him.

He may have grown tired of the bitter taste and discomfort of medicine, so she decided to try something different and use food to help him heal.

She hoped that this way, she could reduce his pain. Seeing his satisfied expression, Yun Yirou was filled with joy.

She felt that her efforts were not in vain, and as long as he was happy, everything was worth it.

In fact, if possible, she also wanted to look at the medicine Xu Yimo usually took to see if there was any way to cure him.

However, she studied Western medicine and was not good at Chinese medicine, so she could only try her best. Moreover, many of these congenital diseases were incurable.

"Arou, my... my second sister is straightforward, but she won't make things difficult for you. Mother didn't have a good life before, and after my brother passed away, she has been thinking about us. Her words may not be nice, but I am here..."

Xu Yimo's tone was light, but he spoke very sincerely. He didn't like rules and didn't want her to be bound by them.

"So, they won't make it too difficult for me. I know everything, Mo, you don't have to worry about me."

A gentle smile appeared on Yun Xirou's face, and she gently patted Amo's hand.

Neither the Queen Mother nor the eldest princess made things difficult for her. In fact, she could see that the Queen Mother still wanted them to have a baby as soon as possible.

I guess she was worried about his health, so even though she was anxious, she didn't rush him.

Xu Yimo's tone was calm, but his eyes were full of sincerity and tenderness. He said seriously: "I don't want you to feel constrained by the rules, and I don't want to see you suffer any grievances because of them."

Yun Xirou nodded gently, a hint of shock flashed in her eyes, and she thought to herself.

"He is such a... innocent person, but his words always make people feel as if they have other meanings."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head secretly and looked up at him.

"Just now when my second sister was here, you didn't even call me Ah Mo. Forget it, I shouldn't force you, I... my sister is a very nice person, but I still..."

Xu Yimo stammered, his face visibly reddened, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, as if he wanted to bury it in his chest.

His voice became smaller and smaller, until it was almost inaudible, but the emotion contained in it became stronger and stronger.

His eyes flashed with complex light, including shyness, expectation, and a hint of imperceptible loss.

"Ah?! You... So this is your main point?! Pfft... You really are... You don't really like me, do you?!"

Yun Xirou looked at him in surprise, then suddenly laughed, her laughter clear and hearty.

There was a bright light in her eyes, as if she had discovered an interesting secret.

“I…cough cough cough…I, I…”

I still hope that you can like me because you like me, not because I like you.

"Hmm!? Well, let me think about it. I want to find a way to see if I can cure you."

Yun Xirou thought that the eldest princess had gone to see Master Yuan, and that there would be a result soon, so she decided to listen to what Master Yuan had to say first.

"By the way, I'm a little worried about my younger brother, so I want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see him."

She has been married for two days. According to local customs, tomorrow is the day to return home, but she doesn't know whether he will agree.

"Well, I've asked someone to prepare all the things for your return visit. How about I go with you tomorrow?"

Xu Yimo seemed to have calmed down. As he said this, he had not left the palace for a long time.

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi looked up at him in surprise, and a feeling of being touched surged in her heart.

She didn't expect Xu Yimo to offer to accompany her back home. After all, as an emperor, he was busy with all kinds of affairs. Not only was his time precious, but it was even more difficult for him to go out.

Yun Yirou hesitated for a moment, but still chose to refuse, and said softly: "Amo, you are so busy, but you are willing to accompany me home, I am grateful. But... I have some housework at home that I have to take care of myself!!"

Her stepmother and half brothers and half sisters are not easy to get along with, and she doesn't want them to offend Xu Yimo.

Xu Yimo frowned, a hint of unhappiness flashed in his eyes: "I also want to go out for a walk. I haven't left the palace for a long time."

These red tapes are almost suffocating him. The last time he left the palace was five years ago.

Why does he look so wronged? ! Xu Yimo looked so wronged, like a puppy abandoned by its owner, looking at her pitifully.

Yun Yirou smiled softly. She couldn't help but stroke his hair gently, as if she was comforting a child and said softly: "Pfft... Ah Mo, why are you so aggrieved?!"

Her voice was full of fondness and concern.

Xu Yimo raised his head, a hint of expectation flashing in his eyes, and asked softly: "How long will you be gone? You have to come back soon."

Yun Xirou was slightly stunned, then she smiled sweetly and replied gently: "Soon, when I come back, I will definitely bring you a lot of new things, okay?!"

There was a hint of playfulness in her tone, which gradually made Xu Yimo feel relaxed.

Xu Yimo nodded, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Okay..."

His gaze still stayed on Yun Xirou, as if he wanted to imprint her figure deeply in his heart.

After Yun Xirou left, Xu Yimo leaned back in his chair and sighed softly.

There was a hint of loneliness in his eyes. Although he was in a magnificent palace, his heart longed for freedom and true feelings.

"Cough cough cough..."

Xu Yimo coughed slightly and looked at the dishes on the table. For the first time, he felt looking forward to seeing someone.

Her body fragrance still lingers in the air, and the faint sound of bells still rings in my ears.

It seemed that as long as she was by his side, he could forget all his worries and fatigue and just immerse himself in the sweet taste.

"Ahem...Xiao Linzi, serve the tea."

As soon as Xiao Linzi heard it, he knew that His Majesty had a severe cough again and his throat was hurting.

Xiao Linzi served the tea and muttered, "This is weird!"

Xu Yimo just asked casually: "Ahem...what are you underestimating?!"

"Your Majesty, when the Queen was here just now, she didn't cough like this!"

This one sentence made his heart tremble, and Xu Yimo seemed to have thought of something, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.

Yes, it seemed that his cough would be relieved as long as she was around.

Is it really because of her?! What did she bring with her?! Oh, by the way, maybe I can try her scent tonight?
