I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

The news that the emperor had given Xiaobao a name naturally reached the ears of the empress and the crown prince Xuanyuan Zheng. At this time, rumors spread in the capital again, saying that the crown prince had a health problem and was unable to have children.

Xiao Lingyun had been in the palace for almost half a year, but there was still no movement. Could it be that it was really his own problem? Xuanyuan Zheng couldn't help but start to doubt himself.

"Mother, tell me, is it really that I am incompetent?" Xuanyuan Zheng asked dejectedly, his eyes full of confusion and despair.

Seeing her beloved son in such pain, the queen's heart was broken. But she couldn't show any weakness. She needed to protect her son from the wind and rain and clear the obstacles ahead for him.

"Zheng'er, how could that be? You are your mother's pride and the future of the entire Great Zhou." The queen said gently, trying to calm the prince's emotions.

The eyes of Crown Prince Xuanyuan Zheng trembled slightly. He lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then looked up at the Queen, took a deep breath and said, "Mother, but if I have no heirs, how long can I sit on the throne of Crown Prince?"

There are three types of unfilial behavior, and having no descendants is the worst. For Xuanyuan Zheng, having no descendants is not only unfilial, he may lose his position as crown prince and thus lose everything.

When the queen heard this, a fierce light flashed in her eyes, and she said coldly, "Those nonsense are nothing but the nonsense of some clowns."

"You just need to wait for your fate to change, and don't be too anxious. Remember, you are the crown prince, the heir to the throne of the Great Zhou. If fate really leaves you with no way out, your mother will definitely carve a bloody path for you."

That day, Pei Zhiyan, Xiao Cui and Qing Yao came to Yuxiangxie together.

"Sister, how come you have time to come to Yuxiangxie today?" Pei Zhixuan gently rocked Xiaobao in her arms without raising her head. "It is inconvenient for me to perform the ceremony while holding Xiaobao like this. Please don't mind, sister."

Oh, it's not that it's inconvenient to be polite, it's clearly that you are being polite in front of your own lady, Yin Liu sneered in her heart.

Pei Zhiyan smiled calmly, "We are sisters, so there is no need to be polite. I know you work hard day and night, taking care of Xiaobao and accompanying the prince, you must be exhausted."

Pei Zhixuan lowered her head and gently stroked Xiaobao's cheek. "For Xiaobao's healthy growth, all the hard work is worth it. As long as he is well, my sister will be satisfied."

This is what Pei Zhixuan really thinks. Since she had Xiaobao, she has become a mother for the first time, and her identity and mentality have changed dramatically. Especially after going through so many things during her pregnancy, she gradually realized that sons are much more reliable than men.

When Mother Xu saw Pei Zhiyan, Xiao Cui and Qing Yao standing in the middle of the room, she thought to herself that her young lady was still not steady enough. After all, she was still a princess, so she had to do all the superficial work.

So, Mother Xu hurried over, with a respectful smile on her face, and said softly, "Princess, Madam Qingyao, Madam Cui, please sit here."

"Thank you, Aunt Xu." Pei Zhiyan nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Mother Xu led Pei Zhiyan, Xiao Cui and Qing Yao to their seats, then she turned and left to prepare tea for them.

After Pei Zhiyan sat down, she sniffed it lightly and sure enough, there was a familiar smell. She didn't expect that Pei Zhiyan would still use this thing at this time. She exchanged glances with Xiao Cui calmly, and Xiao Cui nodded slightly.

At this time, Xuanyuan Ping came in from outside.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Pei Zhiyan, Xiao Cui and Qing Yao bowed.

"No need to be polite." Xuanyuan Ping nodded, strode into the room, and glanced around the room, "It's really lively here today."

Pei Zhiyan smiled and said, "I haven't seen Xiaobao for a few days. I missed him so much that I wanted to come and see him. This child is really lovable. When I saw him, all my worries disappeared."

Xuanyuan Ping chuckled, walked up to Pei Zhixuan, and took Xiaobao from her arms, "Xiaobao, you've gained a lot of weight again."

Xiaobao stared at his father with his big black eyes, curiously. Xuanyuan Ping held Xiaobao in his arms, rocking him gently, with a doting smile on his face.

Since Xiaobao was one month old, Xuanyuan Ping stayed at Yuxiangxie every day. Besides teasing Xiaobao, he also accompanied Pei Zhixuan. His love for Xiaobao was no less than that of an ordinary father.

Whenever he held Xiaobao in his arms, his doting expression was self-evident. When Pei Zhixuan saw this scene, the sweetness in her heart could not be described in words.

Pei Zhiyan also came over and looked at Xuanyuan Ping teasing Xiaobao. She smiled and said, "Xiaobao is getting cuter and cuter. This child is really a treasure given to us by God."

At this time, when Xiaobao saw Pei Zhiyan coming over, he actually stretched out his two little hands towards her and made a "babbling" sound towards her, looking like he really wanted her to hug him.

This scene made everyone present laugh, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm and joyful.

"Come, come, let your mother hold you." Pei Zhiyan gently took Xiaobao and said with a smile.

Pei Zhixuan felt uncomfortable in her heart. What's the use of calling her mother or not? It was obviously her own child, but she still had to call her mother. It was so unreasonable!

Humph! Sooner or later, one day, I will have the final say in the backyard of Prince Jing's mansion!

Xiao Cui came over and said with a smile on her face, "The little grandson looks more and more like the prince. He is really naturally handsome."

Pei Zhixuan saw that Xiaocui also wanted to reach out and hug Xiaobao, and she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart. This slut, if the prince and Pei Zhixuan were not here today, I would definitely make you pay!

She approached Xiaobao today, and she might have some bad intentions in mind to harm Xiaobao.

Pei Zhixuan hurriedly said to her wet nurse, Mama Liu, "Mama Liu, Xiaobao hasn't had any milk for a long time. He must be hungry. Hurry up and take him over to feed him."

"Yes, concubine." When Mother Liu heard Pei Zhixuan's words, she immediately walked up to Pei Zhiyan, took Xiaobao from her, and prepared to take him into the inner room to feed him.

But at this moment, Xiaobao suddenly started to cough non-stop, and his face turned red. Seeing this, everyone immediately became nervous.

"Hurry, go and get the imperial physician!" Pei Zhiyan said hurriedly.

Soon, the imperial physician hurried to Yuxiangxie.

After the doctor entered the room, he first sniffed the air, then walked quickly to Xiaobao. He gently touched Xiaobao's forehead, felt his pulse, and carefully observed Xiaobao's mouth and nose.

Then, he asked the nanny to carry Xiaobao to the yard and let him stand for a while, so that Xiaobao could breathe some fresh air. Sure enough, Xiaobao's cough gradually stopped and his complexion returned to normal.

Seeing that Xiaobao's condition had improved, Pei Zhiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Doctor Chen, what's going on?"
