After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

Lin Shuwan looked at him curiously and asked in a gentle voice, "Do you have a woman you like?" But one of her missions was to help Wei Fengqi find his own happiness!

If Wei Fengqi could get married earlier, have his own wife and children, and no longer be influenced by her, it would be a kind of stable happiness!

Wei Fengqi lowered his head and closed his eyes, hiding the sadness and grief in his eyes, but his tone was cheerful and serious: "Yes! When I was at the border, I was accidentally injured during a bandit suppression, and I had physical contact with a woman... I want to give her a legitimate wedding. Please grant my wish, Queen Mother!"

When he accidentally learned that Lin Shuwan was going to enter the palace as queen, he was about to send troops to suppress bandits. He was absent-minded all the way and even wanted to go back to Beijing to snatch Lin Shuwan back!

But his reason told him that he couldn't do this and he couldn't afford the risk!

He had to consider the Wei family, the Lin family, and Lin Shuwan.

Finally, while chasing bandits, he accidentally fell off a cliff with another general's daughter. The two lived at the foot of the mountain for a total of three days, during which he accidentally ate a wild fruit in the mountains and had sex with her.

When they returned to the military camp, the woman refused to talk about it and even said that it was as if the incident had never happened, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He should be held responsible!

After Lin Shuwan pondered for a moment, he smiled and said, "Since you two love each other, I will accept this marriage! I am relieved to see General Wei find his own happiness! After all, I am sorry for you and your Wei family!"

Wei Fengqi quickly said, "Your Majesty, please don't say that. Your Majesty is very good. It is I who have failed you!"

Lin Shuwan smiled, waved to Chaoxi and Muye who were not far away, and said, "Chaoxi, go and help me grind the ink. I want to draft an imperial decree to grant marriage. The girl is..."

Wei Fengqi replied, "General Ji's daughter, Ji Xianghu."

Chaoxi smiled and responded: "Yes, I know!"

Chaoxi followed Lin Shuwan into the study and came out with an envelope after a while.

Lin Shuwan personally handed the envelope to Wei Fengqi and said, "I congratulate General Wei and Miss Ji on their happy marriage!"

Wei Fengqi took it respectfully: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your help!"

He bowed his head, suppressing all his resentment and regret in his heart. It was good to see that she was living a happy life!

Wei Fengqi did not stay for long. When he saw that Lin Shuwan was in good condition and there was no gloomy look between his brows, he felt relieved a little. Before leaving, he looked back deeply at the small courtyard hidden by the bamboo forest, then rode away on his horse.

……

Time passed day by day, and Lin Shuwan's belly was seen to be slightly bulging, but because she was wearing many clothes, there was nothing unusual to see.

But it still attracted the attention of Nanny Zhou and others.

Because Lin Shuwan hadn't changed his clothes for a long time, this discovery made Madam Zhou and others very happy and scared.

The good news is that Lin Shuwan is very likely pregnant with the late emperor's posthumous child.

The scary thing is… this child is most likely nine thousand years old!

Lin Shuwan reached out and gently stroked her belly. She was almost two months pregnant and had no pregnancy reactions. Instead, she ate well, slept well, and was in very good condition.

But the weather was getting colder and colder, making her more and more lazy. If she dragged on, her body would become heavier and it would be harder for her to escape.

She saw Madam Zhou standing beside her respectfully, her face hesitant, her lips opening and closing several times. After an inner struggle, Madam Zhou seemed to have made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and asked carefully:

"Your Highness, please forgive me for being so nosy. I haven't checked your pulse for a long time. What do you think? Do you need to summon the imperial physician to take your pulse? After all, this concerns your health and you must not take it lightly!"

Lin Shuwan paused for a moment while stroking her belly. A trace of panic flashed across her face. She said calmly, "I feel very well. I feel comfortable staying in Jingting Temple. I even feel like I've gained weight. There's no need to see a doctor!"

Nanny Zhou looked at Lin Shuwan, and the uneasiness in her heart became heavier. She wanted to say something, but Lin Shuwan grabbed both of her hands and looked at her earnestly.

She said in an almost pleading voice: "Mammy, I'm really fine! No need to call a doctor!"

Madam Zhou felt a bang in her head, which made her dizzy and pale. She looked at Lin Shuwan in disbelief with trembling hands and said, "Madam, you already know it?"

Lin Shuwan lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time.

Madam Zhou asked, "Should we tell the Ninth Prince about this?"

Lin Shu refused firmly: "No! Don't tell him! Mammy, I know about this matter. As long as you can help me keep it a secret..."

Lin Shuwan looked at Madam Zhou in a daze with tears in her eyes:

"During this period of time, I have been thinking about whether I should keep this child. I can feel him growing slowly in my belly, and I am reluctant to let him go, but this child... I can't keep him!

The father of this child is unknown. If he is born, it will have a bad influence on him, me, Daqi and the Lin family in the future. It may even implicate the nine clans of the Lin family. My father's reputation as a wise minister will also be cursed by the world and will be infamous forever!"

Madam Zhou knelt on the ground and looked at Lin Shuwan earnestly: "Madam, please think twice! Don't do anything that you will regret!"

The lives of her entire family are in the hands of Nine Thousand Year Old Man. If Nine Thousand Year Old Man knew that she had kept the Empress Dowager's pregnancy a secret, her life would be over!

Lin Shuwan took a deep breath and said to Madam Zhou, "Madam, give me three more days. I know you are Yu Li's man. Please don't tell him yet. I need to think about it carefully!"

Madam Zhou wiped the tears from her face, thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "I am sorry for my rudeness! I am sorry to Your Majesty! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone in these three days! I also hope Your Majesty won't do anything that will make you regret it!"

Lin Shuwan nodded gloomily: "Yeah."

The next day.

Lin Shuwan changed into a neat and tidy set of men's clothes, led the horse out of the stable, and said, "I haven't ridden a horse for a long time. I want to ride a horse for a walk around here!"

Nanny Zhou was shocked, thinking that Lin Shuwan wanted to get rid of the baby in her belly, and she couldn't help but panic: "Madam!"

Lin Shuwan looked at Nanny Zhou coldly, her tone unhappy and angry: "Nanny Zhou, you have overstepped your boundaries! I am the Queen Mother, and I do not need you to ask me what I want to do or when I want to do it!"

Nanny Zhou wanted to say something more, "But..." but Chao Xi, who was standing next to her, covered her mouth with her hand, shook her head, and smiled softly:

"Madame Zhou, the Queen Mother is kind, but she is still our master. If she gets angry and punishes you for disrespect, you will suffer!"

Lin Shuwan no longer paid any attention to Nanny Zhou. He grabbed the reins with both hands and squeezed the horse's belly. The horse started to run slowly, and soon the horse carried Lin Shuwan into the forest behind Jingting Temple.
