The baby-making system is unreliable

Outside the window, the sound of rain hitting the stone steps gradually fades away. As summer turns to autumn and the seasons change, it is difficult to control the change, and it is also the time when one is most likely to get sick.

Yun Xirou rubbed her eyes dazedly, climbed out of bed, yawned and stretched, walked over to him, took a look, and said, "Well, the rain seems to be stopping soon."

"Well, you should get going soon. The rain has stopped, but the road is slippery and may not be easy to walk on. It won't hurt to start early and walk slowly."

Someone nodded and said, it was rare that he actually urged her to go out today. Yun Yirou felt that it was a little abnormal, and asked curiously: "Usually you are reluctant to let me go, why are you suddenly urging me today?!"

"Of course I want you to go and come back early, so I can wait for Ah Rou earlier, otherwise I will be worried sick."

Sweat oozed out of Xu Yimo's palms, his expression remained calm, and there was a beautiful curve at the corner of his mouth when he spoke.

Yun Yirou looked out the window and didn't notice his abnormality. She turned around and placed a light kiss on his lips. She moved away in an instant and said, "Okay, I will definitely be back soon. I won't delay. Otherwise, Ah Mo will worry too much. I will be heartbroken too."

It rained all night last night, but now the rain has lightened a lot. The palace maids and eunuchs in the courtyard are waving brooms and picking up the fallen leaves in the courtyard while the rain is lighter, stopping from time to time to rub their hands.

"It's raining and the roads are slippery. Xiao Linzi, drive very carefully. A Rou, protect yourself."

Xu Yimo, holding an oil-paper umbrella and wearing an ink-colored cloak, followed to the palace gate with concern. His eager expression made Yun Airou shake her head helplessly.

"Amo, you look a little pale, go back quickly, it's cold, be careful not to catch a cold!"

Yun Xirou gently smoothed down his black hair and felt that his complexion was too pale today, which made her feel a little uneasy.

His face looked a little strange, but Xu Yimo just shook his head and said that his face was always like this. Yun Yirou thought about it and realized that it was true. She had never seen him look pale in the past month, so she just wanted to go back quickly.

In the distance, the sound of a carriage could be heard gradually fading away. The simple and plain carriage was pulled by two fat and strong horses with shiny fur. Xiao Linzi was sitting on the shaft of the carriage, also dressed like an ordinary guard. He drove away with his eyes straight ahead and focused on driving.

Not until the carriage disappeared from sight did a layer of fine beads of sweat slowly appear on Xu Yimo's forehead. His body felt abnormally hot, and even the temperature of his palms rose a lot.

Xu Yimo's pale lips kept trembling and he made bursts of coughing, which frightened the young eunuch beside him so much that he hurriedly supported him.

He felt something was not right when he woke up in the morning. He had a cold and a fever, but he didn't want Yun Xirou to notice his discomfort, lest she worry about him and delay her schedule for the day.

Therefore, he had been trying hard to hold back his feelings, not wanting her to notice. As her carriage went away, he could no longer suppress the discomfort in his heart, and finally his head became dizzy.

Fortunately, Xiao Wuzi had always been with his master and had learned to serve Xu Yimo since he was a child. When he saw that something was not right, he was able to stabilize the mess and quickly called the imperial physician to bring the person back to the bedroom.

The imperial physician hurriedly took the emperor's pulse. Fortunately, they were very familiar with his condition and prescribed some medicine to alleviate his condition.

After taking the medicine, Xu Yimo felt very tired, so he lay down in the bedroom with his clothes on. Before falling asleep, he specifically asked Xiao Wuzi not to tell Yun Xirou now.

Everything will be discussed after she comes back. He just took medicine when he was sick and did not go to the court. He just told the princess that he was sick and asked her to take charge of the government for two or three days.

……

Not far from Qingcheng, the water of Peijiang River surged past, carrying yellow sand and flying stones with it, never to return.

The Bishui Temple is quiet and secluded. Occasionally, pilgrims come to visit. The quaint temple is fresh and refined. From time to time, heavy bells can be heard. It is the monks in the temple ringing the bells to worship Buddha.

Yun Xirou's carriage stopped in front of the temple. She got off the carriage and looked at the hundreds of stone steps. She couldn't help but sigh that it was worthy of being a century-old temple.

[Host, there is a very pure spiritual energy here, I like it so much! ]

[I want to live here and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Evolving consumes too much spiritual energy. Spiritual energy, spiritual energy, my favorite spiritual energy! ! ]

For some reason Tongzi suddenly became talkative, and talked a lot, all about spiritual energy.

Yun Xirou slowly climbed up the stairs, and suddenly she found that there seemed to be something beside her, a white mass covering her, which was not very clear and disappeared after a while.

If there hadn't been the sound in her ears, Yun Xirou would have almost thought that she was dazzled and was hallucinating.

"Donor, please come this way. Uncle Liaoyuan has been waiting for you for a long time. He asked me to take you directly to his courtyard."

A young monk who was leading the way put his hands together, and when he saw the three people coming, he bowed slightly and said to Yun Xirou, "The abbot is currently performing a ritual and has no time to attend to other matters. If we are not well-received, please forgive us."

Yun Yirou was a little surprised, nodded slightly, walked forward, followed him silently, and said, "Thank you, Master, for leading the way."

"Master said that only the Empress was there, so we will wait here."

The young monk stopped at a corner and pointed at Yun Xirou, indicating that it was his uncle's residence and it was not convenient for them to go there.

Master Liaoyuan's residence is really different. The Bodhi tree in the courtyard looks to be a hundred years old. It has lush branches and leaves, slender petioles, and a fig ball shape. It also has some of the charm of a Buddhist temple.

Yun Xirou walked step by step to the tree, looking at the man in the yard and thinking. Master Liaoyuan was wearing an orange-yellow monk's robe, had a kind face, white hair and beard, and the scar on his head seemed to be quite old.

He was standing under the Bodhi tree, thinking hard about a chess game, his brows furrowed as if he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

Yun Yurou spoke every word seriously. She only wanted to ask for a way out for Xu Yimo. She said devoutly, "Master Liaoyuan, I am here to visit you. I am disturbing you today just to ask for your guidance and to ask for a way out for my husband."

"Your Excellency has arrived, and I am sorry for not coming to greet you. As your Majesty requested, I can only offer a temporary solution, but not a long-term solution."

Master Liaoyuan sighed, and the chess piece in his hand finally fell onto the chessboard. The Buddhist beads in his hand turned, and he looked up at Yun Xirou.

"Master, there is no cure?! Really, really, there is no way?!"

The stone in Yun Xirou's heart sank, and she murmured something, her eyes were sad and her face was slightly gloomy, as if she was holding her breath.

"No, I don't have a cure. Your Majesty is a man of destiny. Your fate is determined by heaven and cannot be changed at will, let alone a disease that was destined at birth."

Master Liaoyuan's eyes were burning. He shook his head gently as if to invite her to sit down and talk in detail. Then he asked, "Donor, I have a question for you. If you try your best and it's all in vain, do you still want to continue?!"

If she tried her best but it was all in vain, would she continue? !

"Master, please tell me how to alleviate the problem. No matter what, as long as there is a way to help him, I will find it."

Yun Yurou's voice was a little weak, and she was too depressed to speak, but she still said firmly: "No matter what, I will try my best. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I shouldn't give up so easily."

He was such a gentle person. He had rarely stepped out of the palace, had rarely seen the mountains, rivers and streams in this world, had never seen the green hills and clear waters and the drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, had never seen the vicissitudes of life and the rolling clouds along the eastern coast; had never seen the sunrise and the moonrise and the wild grass blowing in the wind in the north.

How could I be trapped like this for my whole life? How could I leave this world like this? How could I decide to go back to my own place without ever seeing the prosperity of the world? !

"Well, in that case, can this old monk feel your pulse for you?! My lady, I see that you have a special origin, and you don't seem to be from this mortal world!"

Yun Xirou was stunned for a moment, frowned, and stretched out her right hand in confusion, watching Master Le Yuan take her pulse.

His words also made Yun Xirou look stunned. She felt as if she had been seen through. She asked Tongzi in panic, "Why is this happening?"

But Tongzi didn't say a word, and no matter how Yun Xirou called him, he didn't respond. She cursed Tongzi inwardly for being so disappointing and cursed his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Master Liaoyuan just stroked his beard and smiled, saying meaningfully: "The spiritual energy here is very good. It is a good place to practice. Your Majesty, don't worry."

Under Yun Xirou's surprised gaze, Master Liaoyuan changed the topic to the fetus in her belly. Before she could calm down her surprise, he withdrew his hand from her pulse.

Under her gaze, Master Liaoyuan continued, "Congratulations, your majesty is already one month pregnant. And this baby comes at the right time, and this relief method is there."

"I... my child can help... Your Majesty?! Master, why don't you just speak frankly? How should I do this?!"

At this point, it was no use for Yun Xirou to pretend any further. She just pretended she didn't hear it and focused on how to alleviate the situation.

"Your Highness, you carry a strange fragrance on your body. This fragrance can actually relieve your majesty's condition, but the effect will become less and less effective over time."

Simply put, his body has developed resistance, so over time this strange fragrance has no way to alleviate his condition.

"Your Highness has been married to His Majesty for only a month, so you don't need to use any other methods, just rely on this strange fragrance to relieve the pain. At most, this method will become ineffective in five months, and by then his illness will become more and more serious."

Master Liaoyuan seemed to be tired when he spoke here. He picked up the teacup, took a sip and continued under her gaze: "This old monk has an elixir that can gather the fetal breath of the fetus in your belly. You only need to cut your right index finger and draw blood after five months, collect the spiritual blood that gathers the fetal breath, and refine it into an elixir for your majesty to take."

"What is fetal breathing? If I use this method, will it hurt the fetus in my belly?! How long does this elixir last? Are there any side effects?!"

Yun Xirou watched him take out a brocade box from his sleeve. It did look unusual, so she asked with some concern in her heart. She didn't want to hurt the baby in her belly.

"Fetal breath is the spiritual energy gathered by the mother during pregnancy. Gathering fetal breath will not harm the fetus, but for you, it will definitely increase the pain of your pregnancy!!"

Master Liao Yuan looked at the woman in front of him and knew that she was worried about hurting the child, so he patiently explained and told her the general consequences.

Listening to his words, Yun Xirou closed her eyes and thought, her fingers rubbing the rim of the cup unconsciously, and she had a rough idea in her mind.

"This elixir can only be used to gather spirits, and once taken, it will be effective for life. Your Majesty has come at the right time. This medicine must be taken before the first two months of your pregnancy, otherwise the efficacy will be greatly reduced."

"As for the refined elixir, you can stop taking it after three months of continuous use. You can take it again when your majesty is seriously ill."

Master Liaoyuan stroked his beard, rolled up the beads in his hand, changed the teacups three times, and told Yun Xirou everything he knew.

This method is not only complicated, but it can only alleviate the symptoms of Your Majesty's condition. It is hard to say how long it will be effective.

In other words, if one day he develops antibodies to this drug, then there will be nothing he can do and his time will come to an end.

The conversation lasted for more than an hour. Master Liaoyuan gave her the things and wrote a method of refining the elixir for her, telling her that any capable doctor could make it.

A drop of her blood can be made into a pill. As long as there is enough blood, there will be enough medicine, and he can hold on for a few more days. Every extra moment is worth it.

Yun Xirou carefully packed up her things. Seeing that it was getting late, she ate some vegetarian food in the temple. She felt a little uneasy, so to gain peace of mind, she went to the abbot to ask for a fortune.

A very good fortune. You may get a chance of survival by exchanging your life. A raccoon cat may change your fate and bring longevity.

The abbot's words lingered in her ears. Yun Xirou actually didn't quite understand. What the hell was this civet cat?

But she still left the temple. Before leaving, Yun Airou asked the abbot for two red ropes. It was said that the red ropes were illuminated by the Buddha's light and could ensure safety.

……

The carriage was traveling on the official road. Xiao Linzi was sitting on the shaft, driving the carriage, waving the whip and looking in a good mood.

After hearing Yun Xirou say that there was a way to relieve the pain, Xiao Linzi first cried foolishly while wiping his tears, and then he circled around Yun Xirou with a silly smile on his face.

Yun Xirou opened the car window and looked outside, roughly thinking about the distance. It would probably take another stick of incense to get into the city.

She chose to keep it a secret from the two of them, and was not prepared to tell Xu Yimo that it would hurt her body. She was criticizing a certain unreliable Tongzi in her mind.

What's going on? Today, Tongzi has been acting strange since entering the temple. He doesn't respond when called. And Master Liaoyuan seems to know about Tongzi's existence. This makes Yun Xirou curious and wants to ask Tongzi what's going on? !

[Host, please don't be angry! Am I not absorbing the spiritual energy of the Bishui Temple?! ]

After leaving the Bishui Temple, the spiritual energy on Tongzi seemed to be even stronger than before, and it was even dense enough to condense into a solid entity.

I saw a layer of light white mist surrounding it, and it first turned into a cute kitten with small and delicate paws and soft hair.
