"Your Majesty, I have prepared a bowl of pigeon soup for you."

Concubine Liu slowly walked into the Qinzheng Hall carrying the food case.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Huai immediately hid the secret letter and conch he had just received under the imperial case.

After gathering his emotions, he stood up and said gently:

"My beloved concubine is here. From now on, you can just ask the imperial kitchen to do such trivial matters. Why bother doing it yourself?"

"I want to take this opportunity to spend more time with His Majesty."

Concubine Liu smiled charmingly, put down the dining table, and said softly: "Your Majesty has been busy with state affairs recently and has not come to see me. I miss the emperor, and the emperor in the womb also misses the father."

"Oh, it's only been two months since the pregnancy, and the emperor already knows that he misses his father?" Xiao Huai smiled happily and joked.

"Yes, mother and child are connected. I can feel it. The child in my belly refused to sleep because he couldn't see his father, so I brought him here." Concubine Liu coquettishly touched her belly with his hand: "Your Majesty, please coax the prince. Maybe he will be honest after a while."

"Okay." Xiao Huai hugged Concubine Liu and sat down with good temper, caressed Concubine Liu's belly, and whispered expectantly: "Your Majesty, be good and go to bed early at night. Don't torture your mother and concubine. Grow up quickly. Wait. After you are born, your father can hold you."

In such an intimate moment, Concubine Liu couldn't help but wrap her arms around the emperor's neck, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I will stay here with you tonight, okay?"

"My beloved, please rest early. I still have a lot of things to approve." Xiao Huai declined politely.

In fact, he looked at Shen Guiren's sign tonight. She was the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Industry.

As an emperor, a large part of the reason for marrying the daughter of a minister is to win people's hearts and stabilize the political power.

Of course, Shen Guiren was sixteen years old and her appearance was even more gorgeous than Liu Guifei's back then, so she was worth a look.

It was just because he had just received a reply from the Regent that he had delayed going to the harem to visit him.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Liu came uninvited.

This is his beloved concubine, and she is an old friend whom he met in difficult times, so he naturally wants to give her more love.

"But I can't bear to leave Your Majesty. I wish I could sleep with Your Majesty every night like before." Concubine Liu said, her eyes lowered, and then big tears rolled down her eyes and down her cheeks.

The beauty's silent cry is the most heartbreaking.

Xiao Huai hurriedly coaxed: "My beloved, don't cry. I won't read the book tonight, I will only watch over you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Concubine Liu immediately smiled happily, with tenderness and sweetness in her eyes: "Your Majesty treats me the best."

"You, you are such a naughty and annoying person, I can't even do anything to you." Xiao Huai patted her forehead lovingly.

"I have no one to rely on in the palace, and only Your Majesty is my supporter. The sisters are jealous that I have been favored by His Majesty for many years. I am worried that they will harm the emperor in her belly, so I am terrified and can't sleep at night. Concubine Liu hugged him tightly and said sadly: "Your Majesty, I am so scared."

"Don't be afraid. As long as I'm here, they won't dare to hurt you." Xiao Huai patted her back comfortingly.

"But..." Concubine Liu hesitated before saying, "If I can become the queen as soon as possible and take charge of the harem, maybe our prince will be born safely and smoothly."

She looked at the man expectantly, her eyes red, weak and delicate.

"I have already discussed with the ministers the matter of re-establishing the throne this morning during the court meeting, but... they said that we should wait until the regent returns to Beijing to discuss such important matters."

Concubine Liu was surprised and asked: "The regent is really resurrected?"

"Yes." Xiao Huai was suddenly surprised: "How did my beloved concubine know about this?"

"I heard this from the cleaning eunuchs and palace maids." Concubine Liu covered it up calmly.

She has her own sources.

"Your Majesty, if the regent returns, will he take away your throne?"

"Probably not." Xiao Huai said this so that he didn't even have much confidence.

After listening to Xiao Ding's angry shouts in the conch, he was sure that it was Xiao Ding's own voice.

He originally wanted to bring Ning Luo into the harem, but he didn't expect that Xiao Ding could actually come back from the dead.

Now I'm afraid I have a grudge against him.

"Your Majesty still needs to be wary of the regent. Our royal son will inherit the country and the country in the future. We cannot let others take it away." Liu Guifei said anxiously.

"I know that I have my own plans for you to raise your baby with peace of mind."

Xiao Huaidao said: "I succeeded as the prince, and my name is justified. If Xiao Ding plots rebellion and is unpopular with the people, he will not dare."

"I heard that the Princess Regent is very powerful. She can kill 300,000 people in an instant. Your Majesty must beware of her being a witch and causing trouble." Liu Guifei added.

"Ning Luo is not a witch." Xiao Huai suddenly looked unhappy.

Ning Luo was kind to him.

Still the elusive fairy.

Concubine Liu was the best at observing words and emotions, so she turned around and said: "Perhaps she is not a witch, but she possesses magical powers, and her relationship with the Regent is as strong as gold. If she helps the Regent plot rebellion, I am afraid that it will be difficult for mortals to resist, so why not..."

"Why not?" Xiao Huai asked anxiously.

"I heard that there is a Taoist Immortal in Dongwu Kingdom who has very powerful magic. Why don't we invite him to be the national advisor to control the country's destiny." Concubine Liu suggested.

"Dongwu Country? It's a long way to go, how can I invite you?" Xiao Huai was a little moved.
