After her wedding, she completely lived the life of an ancient woman who never left the house or left the house.

It wasn't that the male protagonist trapped her, it was entirely that she didn't want to move.

Since learning that she couldn't go back, Zheng Xiyao has lost her goal and motivation, and now she just wants to lie down. Coupled with the 'live and die together' curse, she couldn't solve it for a while.

All that was left in my mind was: ruined.

Zheng Xiyao was lying on the rocking chair, holding the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her mouth, shaking it.

"Your Majesty, this is the medicinal meal sent from the imperial kitchen today." The maid held a bowl of medicine and placed it on the wooden table next to the rocking chair.

Zheng Xiyao just nodded and still wandered around casually. Seeing everyone waiting for her, she muttered: "Go down." She waved the maids to leave.

At this time, she was the only one left in the backyard of Funing Hall.

She glanced at the medicinal meal on the table and continued to chew the dessert in her mouth, without any intention of drinking it.

The male protagonist has been acting very strange these days. He always orders people to bring her various medicinal foods, which are called to nourish the body.

But there was nothing wrong with her body.

She also asked the male protagonist, but Liu Siyan always found a way to change the topic.

She couldn't figure out the hero's plan for a moment, so in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, she simply followed the hero's wishes.

Because Zheng Xiyao knew that the male protagonist would not hurt her.

"You guys should be more alert these days, and don't make any mistakes at this time. You know what!"

"yes."

A familiar voice came from a distance.

Zheng Xiyao heard that it was her personal maid Zhong Xin who was teaching the little maid. But they didn't seem to notice her.

"Sister Zhong Xin, do you think we will have a new little master in a while?" one of the maids asked.

'Little Master', is Liu Siyan going to marry someone new?

No, they just got married, and the hero is going to marry someone new. How dare he?

Zheng Xiyao felt angry. Liu Siyan is ready for a big fight.

"Careful with your mouth, Your Majesty has ordered. Don't reveal anything until you are convinced. If your Majesty finds out, be careful with your mouth."

Zheng Xiyao:......

She can't know yet? This actually made Zheng Xiyao, who was listening in the corner, even more curious.

"Of course I know that, so I won't mention this in front of my empress. I am just happy. If we have a prince in Funing Palace, our empress' position will be stable. What will happen to those Wang concubines and Zhang Cairen in the future?"

Prince?

Zheng Xiyao's heart sank.

"What do you mean?"

"Empress!" In an instant, everyone fell to their knees in panic.

"Zhong Xin, answer me, what do you mean by what you just said?" Zheng Xiyao's voice was calm, but Zhong Xin clearly felt a chill.

Zhong Xin shrank and lowered her head. This was the first time she saw the queen angry.

"Why, what I said doesn't work for you?"

"No, your Majesty." Zhong Xin took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to raise her head: "His Majesty ordered the servants to pay attention to your Majesty's physical condition at all times to see if there is..."

"have what?"

"Do you have any pregnancy symptoms?"

Zheng Xiyao was stunned and felt a chill all over her body. She lowered her head calmly and waved everyone away.

Just when Zhong Xin breathed a sigh of relief, the sound of cracking porcelain made everyone have to hurry up and leave.

Zheng Xiyao stared at the broken medicine bowl and sneered.

He actually wanted to tie her up with a child!

That night, Zheng Xiyao had been waiting for the man.

However, the red candle burned out and the person has not yet arrived.

From that day on, Zheng Xiyao never ate again. It's not that she doesn't want to, it's that she doesn't dare.

She has now lost trust in the male protagonist. She was afraid that Liu Siyan would put something strange in her food.

After not eating for three consecutive days, Zheng Xiyao was so weak that she could only lie back on the bed.

"Why don't you eat?" The man frowned and asked the woman who was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and concentrating.

Zheng Xiyao also opened her eyes and replied indifferently: "I don't dare."

After a long time, when Zheng Xiyao thought Liu Siyan was going to threaten her with violence again, she heard the man ask softly: "Are you unhappy?"

Zheng Xiyao sneered: "I'm happy. I'm very happy. It's just that I was tricked into having a child. There's nothing to be unhappy about. It's the queen's duty to reproduce children and stabilize the country."

"Yao'er!" The man called out, and Zheng Xiyao didn't want to pay attention anymore.

The surroundings suddenly fell into silence, and each other's breathing could be heard clearly.

"Since Yao'er doesn't want to, let's not have children. Is Yao'er satisfied?" Finally, the male protagonist coaxed softly.

"snort!"

Seeing the woman still frowning and refusing to look at him:

"How can Yao'er be happy?"

"What I want will never come true. What else is there to be happy about?" Zheng Xiyao murmured to herself.

"Is this why you can't sleep at night since your wedding?"

The woman was silent, and Liu Siyan seemed to understand something.

"Yao'er, making you happy is the most important thing to me." The male protagonist said it again solemnly. However, this sentence sounded extremely ironic to Zheng Xiyao.

The man only left these words and left. But Zheng Xiyao didn't see the flash of relief and loneliness in her eyes.

Zheng Xiyao opened her eyes suspiciously, puzzled by the male protagonist's unusual behavior.

A sourness welled up in her heart. She just wanted the man to coax her, and she just wanted to find some comfort and support in this strange world she was about to accept.

Zheng Xiyao rubbed her temples, feeling horrified. Not long after she decided to be with the male protagonist, she had already begun to lose herself.

While she was scared, she was also glad that she had woken up early. If she continued to behave badly, she might have been assimilated by this era subtly.

After this incident, the male protagonist will no longer ask people to give her medicinal foods such as tonic soup. At the same time, I rarely come to see him.

News slowly spread in the palace that she, the new queen, had fallen out of favor.

Zheng Xiyao still ate and slept normally every day, read and admired flowers, and occasionally gossiped about palace gossip with the palace maids. It seems that I am very busy, and it only makes my heart hurt when I think of the male protagonist when I have some free time.

Until one day, news came from the palace that Huangdi had abolished the concubine system.

This new system allowed concubines in the palace to leave and return home on their own initiative. If you don't want to, you can stay in the palace for retirement, but you will not retain the status of concubine.

This decision caused an uproar in the court.

Almost all court officials objected, but the emperor insisted as never before and the decision was still issued.

There was an explosion in the palace. Her Fuling Palace was surrounded by people every day, either concubines begging the emperor for mercy or family members of ministers who wanted her to persuade the emperor to take back her fate.

Zheng Xiyao was so annoyed by this that she had to find an excuse to hide.

"Empress, are you here?"

Zheng Xiyao was depressed, thinking that she had been discovered hiding in the back garden.

She looked helplessly at the person coming:

"It's you!?"
