The empress dowager spoke directly and clearly. The empress looked at the emperor aggrieved, but the emperor didn't look at her.

The empress and the crown prince's gaze made contact for a short moment before he stood up, "Royal Grandmother, grandson thinks that Prince Zhi's Concubine's words are inappropriate. As long as it's a descendant of our royal family, we all have the ability to tame the Princess Tian Xiang. In case you fail to get the lower class, people will think that my Tian Qiong does not treat the other nations' princess well. "

He had his own plans. royal father's age simply didn't match up to Yuwen Tianxiang's at all. Furthermore, he was around the same age as Yuwen Tianxiang, and they were both princes. If he were to throw aside the roasting king, he was eighty percent sure that Yuwen Tianxiang would choose him.

When the empress dowager saw that the emperor had remained silent, she couldn't help but feel anxious. "Emperor, what do you think?"

The emperor glanced at Chu Qingyao, "Imperial Mother can make the decision." No matter how noble a princess was, she was still just a woman. In his eyes, women were all the same to him, they were all accessories to men.

"Your majesty!" The empress was unwilling.

The emperor was startled for a second. "Empress, it's been a long time since a new member of the imperial harem entered. It's about time for people to fill up with liveliness."

The empress's face turned pale, and she remained silent for a long time. After the empress dowager heard this, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Bai Rouzhi, since ancient times, there has never been a love that could last a lifetime in the palace.

"Wailing Home also wants to carry a few more grandchildren. Don't worry Emperor, I will help you supervise the Queen and let her carry this matter as fast as possible." After saying that, he looked towards Chu Qingyao, "Prince Zhi's Concubine, is your stomach still not moving?"

Being asked this question in front of Xuanyuan Zhi, Chu Qingyao felt very uncomfortable, so she could only reply, "Not yet."

The empress dowager then looked at Xuanyuan Zhi. "roasting king, when the emperor chooses his concubines, I will also pick two so that I can help the Prince Zhi's Mansion spread the news as soon as possible.

"There's no need, Imperial Mother. This King doesn't have enough power, so I can't blame Princess Hua-Yang for this."

Chu Qingyao widened her eyes. This man had admitted twice in front of everyone that he was no good in that aspect. Had he gotten addicted to losing face?

The empress dowager was stunned. Could it be that roasting king really couldn't do it?

The emperor was overjoyed. There was no one in the roasting king who was happy to have a successor, so the happiest person was him. Xuanyuan Zhi, I never thought you would be so impressive in front of so many people, but not in bed! Haha, he only wanted to laugh heartily to vent his anger.

It wasn't easy for him to hold back his laughter, and he pointed his spear at Chu Qingyao, "Prince Zhi's Concubine, aren't you bragging about your superior medical skills? I shall hand over this royal brother to you, you must do your best to treat it. Within a year, I will see you give birth to a young duke. "

Damn it, Chu Qingyao wanted to curse.

She didn't know if Xuanyuan Zhi could do it, but how could she give birth to a child alone? Seeing that she did not speak, the emperor's face turned cold. "Could it be that the Prince Zhi's Concubine only lives up to his reputation, and does not have any true ability?"

He proudly looked at Xuanyuan Zhi. No matter how good your fighting skills are, you can't even give birth to a son, what a joke. Today, he was going to ruthlessly trample on his pride, making it so that he wouldn't be able to lift his head up for the rest of his life.

Chu Qingyao naturally knew that the Emperor was using her to humiliate roasting king. A wave of anger rose in her heart, she couldn't allow her man to be humiliated.

She stood up. "Chenqie will obey Your Majesty's orders. If Your Highness is lucky, you might be able to give birth to two at once."

The emperor felt as if his fist had hit an iron plate and his face turned livid. "Then I'll be waiting to see. Prince Zhi's Concubine, the great crime of deceiving the monarch, I hope you won't commit it."

Chu Qingyao slightly smiled, "This concubine doesn't dare."

The empress dowager's face was filled with questions. Prince Zhi's Concubine's medical skills are really that high? You can even cure that man's illness? Or could it be that they were simply lying and roasting king was not actually sick?

Xuanyuan Zhi stood up. "Imperial Mother, your son still has matters to attend to in my house. He wants to leave with Princess Hua-Yang first."

The empress dowager smiled. "Prince Zhi's Concubine, Wailing Home will await your good news."

The two of them walked out of the Changle Palace. Xuanyuan Zhi was in front and Chu Qingyao was behind. As she was walking, Xuanyuan Zhi suddenly stopped. Chu Qingyao didn't even notice as she bumped into him.

"You don't even look forward when you walk?" he said coldly.

Chu Qingyao rubbed her sore nose while feeling angry. Could she even walk properly now? Xuanyuan Zhi suddenly pulled off her hand. She stared blankly, his warm fingers already covering her skin.

His movements were light and his hands were actually not that hot, but Chu Qingyao felt that it was very hot and her face turned red. Xuanyuan Zhi admired her crimson red face, and suddenly wanted to be on intimate terms with her. If not for the thought that there was something wrong with the place, he would have already swallowed her.

He retracted his hand and teased, "You're blushing like this, how are you going to give birth to this prince's son?"

Who said they were going to give birth to your son?

Chu Qingyao pushed him and turned to run, but Xuanyuan Zhi's eyes became gloomy and profound. Chu Qingyao, you won't be able to escape.

In the empress dowager's palace, the roasting king s left, as did the emperor. Princess Xi Wei glanced at the empress dowager, then kneeled in front of the empress dowager. "Royal Grandmother, I have something to ask of you, please allow me to visit the empress in the cold palace."

The empress's hand clenched tightly, and the crown prince had already spoken. "royal sister, Imperial Mother is a person who committed a great sin. Royal Father had long ordered for no one to visit.

Princess Xi Wei kowtowed and said, "Royal Grandmother, no matter how wrong mother is, she is still my mother!"

The empress dowager didn't speak as she reached out to help her up, "Xi Wei, the Wang family betrayed the country first. She can't bear to be your mother. If you do not wish to marry to the Falcon Kingdom, it would be best if you do not anger your royal father. "

Xi Wei's face paled, "Royal Grandmother, I just want to see my mother. Can't I just take a look from afar?"

"royal sister, shut up!" The Crown Prince was furious, "Could it be that you want to marry Yuwen Jingrui?"

Princess Xi Wei looked at the crown prince in disappointment, "She is also your mother. Don't tell me you aren't worried about her being bullied in the cold palace?

The empress closed her eyes. "Xi Wei, I assure you, your mother is living a good life in the Cold Palace. I have been the one to personally send her the monthly expenses."

Xi Wei laughed coldly, "Empress, do you think I am a child? "You and my mother have been at loggerheads for a long time. Unless you want me to meet my mother again, how will I be willing to believe you?"

"royal sister, you are too presumptuous." the Crown Prince shouted.

This time, Xi Wei's eyes were really red. She did not think that the crown prince would actually side with Bai Rouzhi. The empress dowager patted the back of her hand. "This matter will take time, child. It's her fortune to have a daughter like Wang Qianyu for her to spend so much of her life with you."

When she thought about how the Xuanyuan family's Jiang Shan was almost destroyed by the Wang family, she hated the Empress Wang to the bones. Seeing the pleading look in Xi Wei's eyes, her face darkened, "Xi Wei, this matter shall end here. If you continue to be disobedient, Wailing Home will immediately marry you to Falcon Kingdom. "

Xi Wei's heart turned cold.

She shook off the Empress Dowager's hand and ran away, covering her face. The empress dowager's face darkened. "All of you can leave! Wailing Home is tired. "

Three days later was the day the empress dowager would hold a banquet at the palace to welcome the crown prince and princess of Falcon Kingdom. When Chu Qingyao and Xuanyuan Zhi rushed over, all the princes and princesses had already arrived. "Greetings Fourteenth Imperial Uncle, Fourteenth imperial aunt."

Xuanyuan Zhi brought Chu Qingyao all the way to the front of the table and sat down, only then did he wake everyone up. Chu Qingyao did not expect the Emperor to have so many children. Other than the Crown Prince Princess Xi Wei and the Seventh Prince, there were actually five other princes and three princesses.

Just as they sat down, the man with a simple and honest face looked over with a smile, "Fourteen, why have you just arrived? "You can drink a glass of wine at a party."

Xuanyuan Zhi pointed to the man, and introduced him to her, "This is the Sixth Imperial Brother."

Chu Qingyao had heard of this Sixth royal uncle before. It was said that his brain was missing a string, which was why he was able to survive after the Emperor ascended the throne. He and Xuanyuan Zhi were the only two princes left. She curtsied. "Greetings to Sixth Imperial Brother."

"Forget about it, forget about it," the man stared at her face. Chu Qingyao thought that there was something on her face, but then she heard him say, "Fourteen, such a good beauty, why didn't you want to marry her back then?"

Chu Qingyao's expression froze. This Sixth royal uncle was really stupid!

Xuanyuan Zhi's face sank, and poured him a cup of wine, raising her glass, she said, "Drink."

Sixth royal uncle happily raised his cup and drank it all in one gulp, licking his lips, "This wine is really not bad, I need to hurry up and drink, then when I'm full I'll return home to sleep. A new beauty has entered my house and is still waiting for me. "

He took the glass and drank three cups in a row, his face already drunk.

He suddenly pushed Xuanyuan Zhi a little, "Fourteen, Princess Tian Xiang is so young and beautiful, Fourteen is so blessed with women." Following his gaze, Chu Qingyao saw that Yuwen Jingrui had arrived with Yuwen Tianxiang.

Yuwen Jingrui saw Chu Qingyao and strode over, "Prince Zhi's Concubine, I didn't expect that we would meet again."

Chu Qingyao was furious, "Since Prince Yuwen wants to gather here, it's only natural that we have to meet them."

The moment Yuwen Tianxiang entered, her eyes landed on Xuanyuan Zhi. Looking at his stern and extraordinary profile, she felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. He walked over gracefully. "Tian Xiang greets roasting king, how have you been?"

Xuanyuan Zhi held the cup as if he hadn't heard anything and kept his head down, treating her like air.

Yuwen Tianxiang's face was flushed red, she raised her voice unwillingly and said it again, "Yuwen Tianxiang greets roasting king."

When the siblings appeared, everyone's attention was on them. Seeing that she paid respects to the roasting king, and that the roasting king did not even give her face, the few princesses could not help but laugh. At this moment, he laughed without restraint.

"What does Princess Tian Xiang mean by this? Could it be that he has really taken a fancy to the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle? "

"I don't think the Fourteenth Imperial Uncle has set his eyes on her!"

Yuwen Tianxiang looked at Chu Qingyao in anger. It was all because of this woman that the roasting king would let him make a fool of himself in front of everyone. Yuwen Jingrui saw that the roasting king was not giving him face, and shouted angrily, "roasting king, what is the meaning of this?"

Xuanyuan Zhi raised his eyelids, "This king has no meaning."

Fortunately, the eunuch's voice called out, "The empress dowager has arrived! The emperor has arrived, the empress has arrived. "

After everyone kneeled down, Sixth royal uncle Xuanyuan Yong was a little late to react. He kneeled down in a serious manner, so the voice of respect was the loudest, causing Chu Qingyao to almost burst into laughter.

"You should rise!" Her Majesty took a seat with her.

Yuwen Jingrui brought Yuwen Tianxiang and the others to greet the empress dowager, then he sat down on the guest seat.

The empress dowager sized up Yuwen Tianxiang. Although her appearance could not be considered exceptional, she was still a first-class beauty, and her appearance was pretty. He laughed, "Princess Tian Xiang, come, sit beside Wailing Home."
