Everything was ready. The navy was ready to go. The ship's holds were filled with gunpowder and fish oil. The new recruits from the base had already quietly gone to Goryeo at the end of last year to rotate back the old soldiers.

Ling Moxiao kept all this secret from the court and even from Shen Dongsu, even though Dongsu repeatedly said there was no rush to destroy the Japanese and that they could take their time.

But Ling Moxiao couldn't wait even for a day. That was the biggest hidden danger weighing on his mind and it involved divine punishment, so how could he not be anxious?

The gunpowder sent to Liuli Island where Jia Shiba was located was in disguised merchant ships and did not attract the attention of sea merchants at all, except for a few people from the Jiang family.

No one knows that the largest merchant group on Liuli Island is actually a hidden navy.

Even the 'suicide squad' that was landing for the first time, Jia Shiba and Jiang Hong were well prepared. They were a group of sea adventurers who were bought with a large sum of money to explore the way for our army.

The news brought back by the spies sent to Japan earlier was like snowflakes, and Yuejian was responsible for organizing this information.

Soon, Japan's military capabilities, people's conditions, class situation, terrain, etc. were fully explored.

Everything is ready, except for the east wind. The only thing missing is the naval admiral who will be responsible for destroying Japan. As long as the admiral is decided, we can set out immediately.

As for the selection of generals, it all depends on the emperor's opinion. Chen Li will guard Goryeo and will not be transferred back, and there are still Jia Si, Jia Shi Ba and a group of generals who will fight Goryeo.

Daxia has never lacked capable generals!

The reason why the emperor has not yet decided on a general is that he wants to lead the army himself.

Several important ministers had already noticed the emperor's thoughts, and they all tried to persuade and dissuade him again and again.

They would rather not attack Japan than let the emperor lead the army in person.

Waguo is different from Beijiang and Goryeo! It is too far away and separated by the sea. The Han people are much more afraid of the sea than the land.

I am not afraid of any place that the horse's hooves can reach, but I am always worried about the thought of crossing the ocean.

What's more, Daxia's navy has only been established for a few years, and it has fought against Goryeo twice. It is really inappropriate to let Your Majesty lead the army in person for the sake of a small country like Japan.

The court officials could not persuade the emperor, so they came to the queen for help, asking her to persuade the emperor.

But this time was different from the past. In the past, when important ministers asked to see the queen, they were always politely taken to the meeting immediately.

This time the Queen did not receive him because she was ill.

When they heard that the Queen was ill, the whole Youzhou City was in a panic, especially the officials of the new agency that relied on the Queen. They rushed to the Imperial Hospital to inquire about the situation and then went to Master Bai to ask.

But no one found out what illness the queen had.

Ling Moxiao was more anxious than anyone else. Dong Su fainted when she was taking the twins to appreciate the flowers. Or rather, while appreciating the flowers, Dabao and Xiaobao found an ant hole and pulled Dong Su to squat on the ground to look.

The mother and her two children squatted for a long time, and when they saw the group of ants successfully move a grain of rice into the hole, they all cheered.

Then when he stood up, Dong Su suddenly fainted.

The twins were relatively calm and didn't scream or cry. Dabao went to the study to find Ling Moxiao, while Xiaobao asked someone to invite Master Bai and Aunt Ayuan.

When Ling Moxiao arrived, he happened to see Princess Yuejian carrying Dongsu back to the room. He took Dongsu from Yuejian and held her in his arms himself.

While other people in the harem were guessing what illness the queen had, Ling Moxiao became even more worried: was it a punishment from heaven?

Master Bai and Cai Yuan both arrived very quickly, and they were accompanied by the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Because Dong Su attaches great importance to medicine and she herself has the reputation of a miracle doctor, Ling Moxiao also respects doctors because she loves them.

He would not be like the emperor of the previous dynasty, who would threaten the imperial doctors at every turn, "If you can't cure me, I will chop off your heads."

There will never be a situation where the attending doctor is buried with the patient because he fails to cure the patient.

He and the twins waited quietly by the bed, watching Master Bai and the imperial physician taking the baby's pulse, observing, smelling, and palpating the baby.

Then A Yuan asked everyone to go out, leaving only her and Yue Jian to examine the empress.

Xiaobao asked obediently if she could stay. She wanted to see her mother.

A Yuan agreed, and Ling Moxiao suggested that Master Bai and Cai Yuan examine Dong Su together, and Yue Jian also went out.

Tsukimi:……

I'd better get married quickly! Otherwise, His Majesty will be wary of me for the rest of my life.

Although I have a masculine personality and look androgynous, I am actually a woman! What are you on guard against?

After the consultation, Master Bai looked very solemn, and that expression made Ling Moxiao's heart wrench.

Is this really a punishment from heaven? So ordinary doctors are useless. Only by destroying the Japanese Kingdom can Dong Su get better...

If Dong Su knew what he was thinking at the moment, she would definitely say that even an imaginary freak could not compare to you.

"Your Majesty is just a little weak. It's best not to squat for too long, eat more sweets, and don't worry too much."

Master Bai spoke seriously, and the family of three heard different meanings from her words.

Dabao: I shouldn’t have pulled mom to see the ants. It turns out mom can’t squat.

Xiaobao: I want to give all my desserts to mom because she eats too little desserts.

Ling Moxiao: Is Dong Su worried about my expedition to Japan and fell ill because of excessive worry?

This is really a dilemma! If he doesn't destroy the Japanese nation, there will be divine punishment, but if he destroys the Japanese nation, Dongsu will be so worried that he will fall ill.

Yue Jian summed it up perfectly: "Doctor Bai is saying that the queen is not sick, but has been too tired recently?"

Master Bai nodded. Fortunately, there was someone who could listen to him, otherwise it would be too troublesome just to explain to His Majesty!

His Majesty is so wise and capable in handling state affairs, but when it comes to Her Majesty, he becomes a different person.

Ling Moxiao heaved a sigh of relief, and then heard Master Bai say: "But..."

He suddenly became nervous and asked hurriedly, "But what?"

If Master Bai wasn't older and more senior, if he really wanted to urge her, couldn't he just say it all at once?

Master Bai frowned and said, "It's still a short time, and I can't tell your pulse yet. Your Majesty's condition looks very much like early pregnancy."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.

Ling Moxiao fell back into his chair, feeling both surprised and at a loss.

Xiaobao ran over and whispered to his brother: "It means she's pregnant. Mom is pregnant with a baby. We are going to have a brother or sister."

Dabao was ecstatic and grabbed Ling Moxiao's sleeve: "Father, did you hear that? We are going to have a baby."

Ling Moxiao glanced at the two of them and felt that time passed so quickly!

It feels like these two little guys were just babies not long ago, how come they have grown so big in the blink of an eye?

Master Bai didn't want to tell it at first. He wanted to at least wait for a month to detect the pregnancy pulse and confirm the news before telling the emperor.

But just now when she was examining the Queen in the bedroom, she heard A Yuan talking about the Queen's recent worries. The matter of fighting Japan was already known to the world.

Master Bai, who was working hard in the laboratory for the vaccine all day, also heard about this. She also had to arrange for medical staff to accompany the army. This time, the female medical staff were in unprecedented high spirits.

It's not that you push me and I push you not to go, but we all rush to go.

Everyone knows that joining the army can bring great merit, but it is too difficult for women to achieve military merit. Although there is a possibility of dying overseas, if they come back alive, they will have no worries for the rest of their lives.

What worries the Queen is that the general who will lead the expedition against Japan has not yet been decided, while the Emperor plans to lead the army himself.
