...
In the room, the empress was flipping through ancient books, and when she heard Zhao Wujiang's footsteps, she didn't even raise her head:
"You've been gone for so long, how is the Queen?"
"It's nothing serious."
Zhao Wujiang sat next to the empress and waited silently for a while. He knew that paper could not cover the fire.
Dugu Mingyue's pregnancy could be concealed for a day or two, but it could not be concealed forever.
He thought for a while and said:
"Dugu Mingyue is pregnant..."
"You want to use this trick to deceive my attention again..."
The empress snorted softly, her eyes scanning the ancient books.
But she didn't see Zhao Wujiang's response for a long time. She raised her beautiful eyes and saw Zhao Wujiang's serious and gentle smile, and her heart suddenly trembled:
"Do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"Whether it's from the symptoms or the pulse, it's confirmed that everything is fine." Zhao Wujiang had a gentle smile on his face, looking at the empress with a hint of stiffness and stubbornness.
The empress put down the ancient book, her heart trembling. She slowly adjusted her breathing, her brows suddenly turned cold, and she said with unparalleled majesty:
"But you know, she can't!
She can dominate the harem, but the child in her belly does not flow from the blood of Daxia Xuanyuan family, so she cannot be pregnant! "
"I know..."
Zhao Wujiang's smile did not disappear, but his eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter:
"But the child is already here..."
"Zhao Wujiang! I am the emperor of the dynasty. If this child is not of my blood, he cannot exist..."
The empress looked into Zhao Wujiang's eyes. The depth in her eyes made many emotions surge in her heart, and her tone softened slightly:
"You know you can't..."
Zhao Wujiang took a deep breath and his tone trembled:
"If the child in Dugu Mingyue's belly is a boy, he will be the prince and heir apparent of Daxia in the future...so you can't accept it...
Then...what if it's a girl..."
There seemed to be sobs in the Empress's throat. She swallowed hard and didn't know how to speak. When Zhao Wujiang mentioned the girl, her heart was deeply touched.
"If it were a girl, she wouldn't steal the throne..." Zhao Wujiang said in a sincere tone.
The empress blinked her long eyelashes, her eyes seemed a little warm:
"This is just if I don't want to gamble, and I won't gamble!"
"Can't the great Xia Dynasty tolerate a girl?" Zhao Wujiang rubbed his fingers, his eyes condensed.
"you're right!"
The empress stood up, her eyes red with moisture:
“Daxia cannot tolerate a girl or a woman!
I have been struggling alone for so many years. Can their gang of rebellious officials and traitors tolerate a woman like me?
If they knew that I was a girl, what do you think would happen to the court?
I will not allow the slightest mistake, and I will not allow Daxia’s foundation to be ruined in my hands because of deviations..."
The smile on Zhao Wujiang's face was finally no longer stiff, because it had disappeared and was completely suppressed. He said in a deep voice:
"They can't tolerate your daughterhood, I'll do it!"
"What's the use of your tolerance!"
The empress' heart trembled, and her throat became increasingly indistinct from sobs. She turned her face away, her eyes red and moist.
"Zhao Wujiang, Daxia Dynasty, the bloodline of the Xuanyuan family is unbreakable!"
Zhao Wujiang turned around with a faint look in his eyes: "I only know that my Zhao Wujiang's blood is flowing in Dugu Mingyue's belly... Can you tolerate my Zhao Wujiang's blood?"
Zhao Wujiang let out a long sigh and stepped outside the house.
"Zhao Wujiang..."
The empress opened her mouth and looked at Zhao Wujiang's leaving figure. Complex and turbulent emotions came over her and overwhelmed her in an instant. She slumped on the chair.
Can I tolerate Zhao Wujiang?
Can his blood be tolerated... The empress murmured, her voice muddy and unclear:
"Can...can..."
Zhao Wujiang walked out of the house, looked back at the empress, and slowly closed the door.
He then stepped into the night.
...
The long night was long, and the empress tossed and turned on the bed. Ever since she met Zhao Wujiang, she hadn't felt the night so oppressive for a long time. It was like a big, devouring net that tightly enveloped her.
She thought a lot, and reason told her that she could not keep the child in Dugu Mingyue's belly. It was not the orthodox bloodline of the Daxia Xuanyuan family!
But her sensibility and conscience also told her that Dugu Mingyue and her child were innocent.
What if it is really a girl as Zhao Wujiang said?
In fact, I also want to tolerate girls... The empress's heart was boiling. She told Zhao Wujiang that she couldn't. She said harsh words and it was also true. She didn't dare to gamble...
She took a long breath, trying to get rid of the chaotic thoughts in her heart, but the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
The source of chaos lies not in things, but in people.
If Zhao Wujiang did not hold an important position in her heart, this matter would not matter at all, and she could forcefully cover it up with just one word.
But Zhao Wujiang has become more and more important to her unknowingly...
...
Under the night, Zhao Wujiang practiced the indestructible magic skill over and over again. The second step of the seven souls has been fully awakened. He only needs three souls to complete the training successfully. When the time comes, he will definitely take another step forward in the martial arts.
He has already read the follow-up of the Vajra Indestructible Magic Technique. There are five steps in the Vajra Indestructible Magic Technique. If you successfully practice the five steps, you will be a genuine human weapon, invulnerable to weapons and bullets, and invulnerable to water and fire.
Now he can only suppress the rising depression in his heart by indulging in cultivation.
He had a disagreement with the empress in the palace. He could completely understand the empress, but as he said, he could understand but would not agree.
He, Zhao Wujiang, will protect everyone and everything he wants to protect!
