"No, I just wanted to give the emperor a surprise, so I didn't want to tell him."

Lin Ji thought about it and decided to tell Lin Li, "On New Year's Eve, the emperor asked me for a dose of medicine."

"What medicine?"

"Contraceptive pills."

Lin Li slapped the table anxiously, "How can that be possible? The emperor is the emperor. What if he eats something bad?"

No wonder Lin Li stopped taking the contraceptive pills, and Xie Yu worked so hard, but there was still no movement in her stomach. It was because Xie Yu secretly took the contraceptive pills.

"Don't worry, I personally picked up this medicine and boiled it myself."

"Brother, I naturally believe in your medical skills, but medicine is always poisonous, so it will definitely have some harmful effects."

Xie Yu took contraceptive pills for Lin Li. If he stopped taking the pills all of a sudden, he would become suspicious.

Since you want to give Xie Yu a surprise, just let him be the same as usual.

"Second brother, you can deliver medicine to the emperor as usual, but you have to replace the contraceptive soup with medicinal ingredients that taste similar to the contraceptive soup."

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Of course, I'm here for everything, nothing will go wrong."

When Lin Li returned to the palace, it was time for dinner and Xie Yu was already waiting for her.

"Why did you take so long?" During this period, Lin Li ran to Xiao Rou's place almost every day, and would not return until the palace gates were closed. Therefore, Xie Yu could not see Lin Li for the entire day.

"Your Majesty," Lin Li sat down next to Xie Yu and hooked her arm around the man, "That child is so adorable. I can't bear to let her go after holding her in my arms."

"Madam didn't like children before. She didn't even dare to hold a child. How come she changed so quickly?"

The waiters all left, and Xie Yu took the initiative to serve Lin Li, serving her soup and helping her pick up dishes.

Lin Li leaned on the man's shoulder, her big eyes blinking, "The past is the past, the present is the present, people will change, and besides, didn't the emperor like children very much before? Why don't we have one too?"

Their eyes met, Xie Yu's Adam's apple rolled, he straightened Lin Li's body, put the chopsticks into the woman's hand, paused, "We are still young, there is no rush to have children, let's eat first."

Xie Yu felt that it was good for the two of them to continue living like this. After having more children, he would have to divide his attention to take care of them. Xie Yu liked living his life as it is now and liked Lin Li to devote herself to him wholeheartedly.

"But, the women of my age, Princess Shuya and Xiaorou, are all mothers now. I envy them too."

"Madam, do you think giving birth is that easy?" He handed the soup to Lin Li. "It's so hard to be pregnant for ten months. It's not convenient to do things with a big belly. It's so hard."

"What's the inconvenience? Anyway, I have people to serve me. There is also the emperor. There are so many people around me."

Xie Yu picked up a few pieces of golden crispy meat for Lin Li, "There are so many inconvenient things. Take the things between husband and wife for example. It's very inconvenient and we can't enjoy it to our heart's content."

"Your Majesty," Lin Li's face instantly turned red when Xie Yu said that. She touched the man's knee with her foot under the table, "Your Majesty, why do you always talk about this? I'm so embarrassed."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? I'm just telling the truth. It's normal for me at my age."

"Hate it, I won't tell you, Your Majesty," Lin Li also picked up a large piece of meat for Xie Yu, "Let's eat."

If we continue talking, I don’t know what embarrassing words Xie Yu will say.

As night fell, lanterns were lit in the palace, but the night wind was still chilly.

Lin Li wanted to go to the Imperial Garden with Xie Yu to take a walk and digest the food, but unfortunately, it was too cold outside, so Lin Li and Xie Yu stayed in the house.

Xie Yu was reading memorials in the study, and Lin Li didn't want to disturb him, so she learned embroidery with Yuzhu and the others.

Perhaps because she had spent too much time with Xie Yu, Lin Li had unlocked the embroidery skill. She could now embroider some simple little things, which looked acceptable.

Zhou Yue was holding a painting in her hand. On it was Lin Li sitting in a pavilion in the imperial garden. She was wearing a pink dress and waving a fan in her hand.

"My lady, the skills of that Western painter are really great. He painted the people so vividly that they look like fairies descending to earth."

"You little girl only knows how to talk nonsense," Xie Yu was quite satisfied with this painting and wanted to hang it in the study room of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
