Despite the pain in his body and mind, Ziqing from the East did not allow him to be weak.

To become an empress, she had chosen this path herself. No matter how painful it was, she had to continue! Even if this road was filled with thorns that would pierce all over her body and cause her to be covered in wounds, she no longer had a way out …

Looking at the bruises on her body, Dongfang Ziqing didn't even dare to breathe. She wanted to avoid the pain from her lower body becoming worse …

After exiting Dongfang Ziqing's room, Xuanyuan Chenmo headed straight for the dining hall. His expression was even colder than the February sky. At this time, the people of the Dongfang family had gathered, and it was also the best time for him to send a 'good news' to Dongfang Shuotian!

He really wanted to see what kind of expression this old fox would have after hearing this joyous news, and how he would act in front of him!

"Your majesty." Seeing that Chen Mo had come, both Dongfang Shuo and Dongfang Zihan cupped their hands and bowed to show their respect.

"Why is there a need to be so distant from us, the Secretary of State and the Imperial Uncle!" "If Qing'er sees me and starts to nag me again, I'll have calluses in my ears from these three years!" With a casual wave of his hand, Xuanyuan Chen Mo strode into the dining room and sat down on the seat of honor reserved for him. He picked up the tea that the maidservant had just brewed and lightly sipped on it, casually saying, "The Dongfang family's tea is indeed good tea!"

Hearing Xuanyuan Chen Mo's somewhat abnormal tone, the Dongfang father and son exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion in the other's eyes.

The tea leaves of the Dongfang family were only official tea that had been sent out by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Compared to the tea leaves of the palace, they were at least thirty percent inferior! It seemed like Xuanyuan Chen Mo's words definitely had a sound to them.

"If the Emperor likes it, this subject orders someone to prepare some for the Emperor and bring it back to the palace for reference." Dongfang Shuotian cupped his hands again. His attitude was not as casual as before, but more cautious.

No matter how intimate their relationship was, it was an irrevocable fact that the other party was the emperor. Therefore, they had to maintain the etiquette of a sovereign and subject.

He sat down next to Dongfang Shuo Tian. Dong Fang Zi Han raised his eyes to look at the smiling Xuanyuan Chen Mo, and his heart was unable to calm down. The smell of conspiracy made it difficult for him to sit still.

As a great general, he was not only well-versed in military affairs, but he also knew how to deploy troops or had good skills. Intuition was sometimes more important!

And the Emperor in front of him, who was becoming more and more of an Emperor, had long ago become unable to be as trusting to him as he was when he was a child. As for when it had started, even Dong Fang Zi Han couldn't be sure.

"Your majesty, why hasn't Qing'er come to eat together with you?" Personally pouring tea for Xuanyuan Chen Mo, Dongfang Zihan asked.

"It's all my fault for being unable to control myself for the time being, I've exhausted Qing Er." As Xuanyuan Chen said this, he turned his gaze 'you understand a man's needs' towards Fang Zihan before laughing loudly, "Who knows, in ten months, Uncle Guowei might be able to carry his nephew!"

"Ugh …" Embarrassed, he did not know what to say. This matter regarding husband and wife was better known by the parties involved. How could they discuss it over the dinner table!

Dongfang Zihan sat upright and looked at his father. He saw that Dongfang Shuo Tian was looking at Xuanyuan Chenmo with a profound gaze, and Xuanyuan Chen Mo also gave him a misty look, making it hard for people to understand what he meant.

The three most respected men of Xuanyuan Kingdom were seated at the same table, but each of them had their own thoughts. They were all immersed in their own thoughts …

"Xue'er, what happened to you!?" Suddenly, Madame Dongfang's anxious voice rang out in the dining room. The three men immediately looked in the direction of the voice. They saw Qin Xue standing stiffly at the door. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Xuanyuan Chenmo.

"Wife Qin Xue, I wish the empress an early date on getting the dragon son and adding golden branches and jade leaves to the royal family!" Pushing aside Madame Dongfang's hand, Qin Xue took a few steps forward and bowed, expressing her congratulations!

"Xue'er!" "Just as Xuanyuan Chen Mo was about to speak, he heard Dongfang Zihan call out with tender love. He had already moved to Qin Xue's side and embraced her in his arms." If you are weak, why don't you rest in the house? "

Smiling faintly, Qin Xue naturally leaned against Dong Fang Zihan's chest. However, at an angle that others couldn't see, her gaze was on Xuanyuan Chen Mo. Her eyes were filled with a faint sadness, as if she was accusing Xuanyuan Chen Mo. Big Brother Chen Mo, how can you betray Xue'er, how can you have the actual relationship of a husband and wife with Dongfang Ziqing? Have you forgotten your oath to Xue'er, and your promise to her? '

Looking at Qin Xue's pale face and that accusatory gaze, Xuanyuan Chenmo's face also lost all color. He had forgotten that Qin Xue was already a member of the Dongfang family. As long as he announced the fact that he and Dongfang Ziqing had become husband and wife, Qin Xue would naturally know as well.

"Zi Han, bring Xue Er back to her room to rest." Madame Dongfang spoke faintly with a sigh, "This child is just too considerate. He knows that the emperor and empress will be returning to the palace tomorrow, so he came to express his gratitude." She won't listen to anything I say. "

"I understand." Bowing slightly, Dongfang Zihan picked up Qin Xue and carried her horizontally. He nodded towards Xuanyuan Chen Mo before turning around and leaving.

"Your majesty, Zi Han and his wife are being rude." Seeing that Xuanyuan Chen Mo's gaze was still fixed on Dongfang Zihan, Dongfang Shuo frowned slightly. He seemed to be thinking of something, but he opened his mouth to interrupt Xuanyuan Chen Mo's train of thoughts.

"The country leader is getting serious." In response to his laughter, Xuanyuan Chenmo suddenly stood up and pointed to the dishes on the table, "It looks like we won't be able to eat our reunion dinner tonight. Why don't we have the servants take the dishes to their own rooms? "

"The Emperor is right." He cupped his hands in reply. He seemed to be smiling from head to toe, but it was actually a deep and unfathomable smile.

After instructing the servants to bring the food away, Dongfang Shuotian looked up to see that Chen Mo was looking at him, and gave a frank and sincere smile. In terms of acting, who could possibly match him, a person who had been the Prime Minister for more than twenty years?

However, what seemed like a normal night made Dongfang Shuo's heart heavy.

Just what had happened for the young sovereign to look at him with such a strange gaze? Why did the empress, who always respected each other, become a real husband and wife? And … The look in Xuanyuan Chen's eyes when he looked at Dongfang Zihan and his wife... It was really strange!

Unable to answer all the questions in his mind, Dongfang Shuo became even more confused. It seemed that his residence needed to thoroughly investigate the origins of this sudden change in the Emperor's heart!

The Eastern Residence could only seek its own demise, but they absolutely could not allow anyone to plot against them!

The most beautiful March day in the world, the birdsong fragrance, the climate is pleasant, is a suitable travel or out of the season.

However, such a comfortable season was bound to bring about a bloody tragedy!

She sat at the tea table and watched as Qin Xue's complexion gradually returned to its rosy state, but she was still as thin as ever. If he could take care of her more, their children wouldn't have been lost, and Qin Xue wouldn't have become this depressed. It was all because of his dereliction of duty as a husband. He couldn't even protect his beloved wife and deserved the title of 'invincible general'.

The spring wind blew in slowly, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers and plants, as well as the fragrance of Qin Xue's body. It blew into Dongfang Zi Han's side, making him unable to suppress his emotions, he stood up and walked towards his most beloved wife.

Hugging Qin Xue's waist, Dong Fang Zihan said in a deep voice: "When you're better, I'll come back and pick you up."

Qin Xue's hand that was packing her luggage paused slightly. She gently bit her lower lip and continued to tidy up her bag. She said gently to Dong Fang Zihan who was hugging her: "General, it's time to enter the palace. We also need to see little sister Qing Er."
