Yinzhen looked around. "The furnishings in your room are a bit old. Let Su Peisheng replace them with new ones tomorrow."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Nian Shilan continued, "Your Highness, I am pregnant and cannot serve you. If you miss me, you can go to Feng Gege's room to sleep."

"Okay, I'll listen to Shilan." Yinzhen replied with a smile.

Feng Ruozhao, who was standing aside, was a little confused. "She, why would she speak for me? Shouldn't she be laughing at me?" Feng Ruozhao stood there in a daze, thinking, and seemed out of place in this lively scene.

"Shilan, can Yuebin take care of your baby from now on?" Yinzhen said, patting Shilan's hand.

"Okay, sister will take the most careful care of me. I will listen to your orders, Your Highness." Nian Shilan knew what Yinzhen wanted to do, so she agreed.

Qi Yuebin was very happy, thinking that Yinzhen trusted her so much. She was also happy that she could help her sister to have a safe pregnancy.

Days passed like this, and finally, Nian Gengyao came back. Su Peisheng went to the study and announced, "Your Majesty, General Nian is back and is waiting outside the palace."

"Come in quickly," Yinzhen said immediately.

"Your Highness, I'm back." Nian Gengyao saw Yinzhen and knelt down in front of him. Yinzhen immediately helped Nian Gengyao up.

"How is things in Xiajiang Town?" Yinzhen asked.

"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled your mission. There is indeed something fishy going on in Xiajiang Town. When I arrived there, someone came to assassinate me. Fortunately, I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, so I didn't fall victim to the assassination. I have already investigated and found that it was indeed the Eighth Master's gang. I have ordered them to be strangled immediately. This time when I came back, I caught a thief on the way." Nian Gengyao shouted to the outside of the door, "Bring him up."

A handsome, muscular young man was brought into the study. Yinzhen looked at him, their eyes met, and he recognized him at a glance, and then asked, "Have you been to the royal enclosure?"

The man opened his eyes and his pupils dilated, but he didn't say anything. But Yinzhen obviously had the answer in his mind, and seeing that he was reluctant to speak, Yinzhen shouted to the outside of the door: "Take him away and deal with him." The two guards immediately wanted to take him away, and the man said in panic: "Your Majesty, spare my life, I will tell you everything."

Yinzhen waved his hand and the guards released him. The man knelt on the ground, sweating all over. He didn't dare to speak.

"Tell me, who instructed you to assassinate me?" Yinzhen said coldly.

"Eight, Eighth Master." The man was a little nervous and spoke hesitantly.

Yinzhen turned around with a smile on his face. It seemed that his guess was correct. It was indeed him. He did not expect that Lao Ba would be so cruel. Well, let's wait and see. "Take him away."

The man was taken away by the guards, and only Yinzhen and Nian Gengyao were left in the room.

"My Lord, I wonder how my little sister is doing today." Nian Gengyao stood behind Yinzhen and asked with concern. He only had this one little sister, and he was worried about her.

Yinzhen smiled and replied, "She is fine. She is pregnant recently and her belly is getting bigger." Yinzhen told Nian Gengyao about Nian Shilan's pregnancy. Firstly, he wanted to show that Nian Gengyao was always favoring her, and secondly, he wanted to know Nian Gengyao's reaction after he knew that Shilan was pregnant.

Nian Gengyao was very excited when he heard the news that Nian Shilan was pregnant. "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Do you know if it's a boy or a girl?"

"Oh? Do you care about men and women?" Yinzhen asked back.

Nian Gengyao did not hide anything and said, "If it was a boy, wouldn't it be better?"

It was because of Nian Gengyao's answer that Yinzhen became more determined not to have this child. Little did he know that all of this was just unnecessary worry.

"Your Majesty, I wonder when I can see my younger sister." Nian Gengyao asked, his eyes full of anticipation.

Yinzhen thought for a while and said, "Shilan is pregnant and it is inconvenient for her to go to her room. It is not convenient for you to go to her room to see her. How about this. Let's have dinner together tomorrow."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

……

Qianqing Palace, morning court.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Yinzhen stepped out with a loud voice and stood in the center of the hall.

"explain."

"Some time ago, my son was assassinated. The thief was not caught at that time, so the case was left unsolved. But I never thought that General Nian would come back yesterday and catch this person on the road. I interrogated him yesterday and he said that he was my eighth brother's subordinate."

Hearing this, Yinsi panicked a little, and his whole body was full of tension. He shouted, "Yinzhen, stop talking nonsense!"

At this time, the emperor was a little angry. He said angrily: "How dare you! How can you make noise in the palace?" Yinsi immediately stopped talking. "Fourth brother, go on."

Yinzhen calmly clapped his hands twice. Then, two guards brought the man in from outside. The man knelt down and kowtowed as soon as he entered the hall, saying, "Your Majesty, spare my life, Your Majesty, spare my life!"

The eighth prince Yinzhen took one look at the man kneeling on the ground and was shocked: "How did he fall into the hands of the fourth prince?" He broke out in a cold sweat without even realizing it.

"Tell me, who instructed you to assassinate Prince Yong!" The emperor was furious.

The man was so frightened that he shuddered: "Your Majesty, spare me, Your Majesty, spare me, it's the Eighth, the Eighth Master, it's the Eighth Master." As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Yinsi. Yinsi was so frightened that he quickly stepped out of the line and knelt in front of the hall: "Father, Father, look far away, I don't know him, I don't know him."

"Come here, take Yinsi and his followers away to me. I am still fine! You guys are forming cliques here, which is simply treasonous!"

After the two were taken away, there was a lot of discussion in the hall, and Yinzhen was also happy that this major worry was temporarily resolved.

After the court session, Yinzhen and Nian Gengyao came to the palace. Yinzhen ordered people to prepare some light wine, and had lunch with Nian Shilan and Nian Gengyao...

……

Li Wanting took a sip of tea from Yixiu's side and said unconvincedly: "I don't know what to be so proud of. It's just a pregnancy, you act like everyone has been pregnant before. Humph, it doesn't matter if you're pregnant, the real skill is to give birth to the baby and raise it!" After saying this, Li Wanting didn't notice that Yixiu's expression had changed.

Yixiu was also very impatient: "Humph, I have a brother who has made great military achievements. If you were useful, would Hongshi be so unpopular with the prince?"

Li Wanting lowered her head, looking aggrieved. "In the final analysis, it's because I'm not good enough to please the prince, and even Hongshi is not liked by him. Fu Jin, tell me, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Yixiu put down the tea in her hand, rolled her eyes at Li Wanting, and said, "Watch your mouth first." Li Wanting was instantly speechless.

Jianqiu stood beside Yixiu, her eyes full of mockery towards Li Wanting.

"Jianqiu, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, right?" Yixiu asked Jianqiu leisurely.

She thought about it and calculated. "Reply to the wife, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and the prince should come to our room." Jianqiu replied with a smile. Calculating that Yinzhen would come today, Jianqiu was also happy for Yixiu.

Hearing this, Yixiu smiled knowingly, unable to hide the joy in her heart. "Yes, it's the fifteenth. The prince hasn't come for half a month. He should come today. The first and fifteenth day of the month. The prince belongs to me after all." Yixiu couldn't help laughing as she adjusted her clothes.

Li Wanting responded from the side: "Yes, Madam, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. I don't know how long it has been since I last saw the prince. After all, I am not as lucky as you. Hongshi also hasn't seen his father for a long time." Li Wanting sighed.

"You can bring Hongshi here. I think I like this child too. If you bring him here today, I can teach him his lessons so that he won't always upset the prince." Yixiu said.
