Unfortunately, it wasnât long before there was another unwelcome guest.
Nan Xianâs face was cold. His eyes seemed murderous as he stared at the woman standing at the door.
The woman was dressed in bright yellow, appearing somewhat graceful, noble, and elegant. She walked in unceremoniously, sat in front of Feng Ruqing, and poured herself a tea cup.
Feng Ruqing was stunned.
âThis tea should be from the inn. Later I will send someone to bring you some good tea...â The empress smiled faintly. âMaiden Feng, this matter is indeed my fault. Yuâer is innocent.â
Feng Ruqingâs face darkened. âWhich eye of yours saw that I am still a maiden? Call me Lady Nan! Canât you even see that Iâm already pregnant?â
Nan Xian pulled Feng Ruqing into his arms and glanced coldly at the empress. His white robe fluttered under the cold moonlight.
His expression expressed slight dissatisfaction.
The empress looked a little awkward. âLady Nan, Yuâer wants to see you.â
âOh...â
Feng Ruqing was somewhat dazed.
She did not have any bad feelings toward that little prince.
He was just a spoiled child, and he was not really bad, not to the extent of that kind of evil. He was only arrogant, and that was not a big problem; as long as he was no longer so overbearing in front of her, it was enough.
âIâm busy.â
Feng Ruqing responded smilingly.
âQingâer is not free.â Nan Xian looked at the young girl compassionately for a while. âWeâre busy making babies, and we donât have time to deal with unwelcome guests.â
The queenâs face stiffened.
Her gaze subconsciously fell on Feng Ruqingâs abdomen. âIsnât she already pregnant?â
âIt doesnât prevent us from continuing to do what we want to do.â
It was not really about making babies; it was about... The process...
Of course, since Feng Ruqing already had a baby in her belly, he did not dare to be too rough because it might harm the child in her belly.
âLady Nan...â The empress smiled bitterly. âIâve never seen Yuâer so attached to someone before.â
Feng Ruqing raised her head to look at the empress.
That little fatty seemed to be afraid of her...
But perhaps that boy was interested in her spirit beast. That was why he was so clingy.
âActually, Yuâerâs health isnât very good. He was so playful and wasnât be able to cultivate...â The empress said a little helplessly, âHe was bullied when I wasnât around, and for that reason, I felt a bit more sorry for him. It is true that I have deliberately pampered him...â.
Feng Ruqing did not reply.
Nan Xian had already poured a cup of tea for her and placed it in front of her.
She gently took a sip, her eyes drooping, listening silently.
âIâm afraid that heâd be bullied if he was too gentle. I want to make him fierce and powerful so that no one will bully him. After all, I canât be there for him all the time...â
This was the first time the empress had talked to anyone about these matters, and she had even used a rare tone that made her look more approachable than usual.
Of course, this approachability was only for the people of Wu Shang City.
In Feng Ruqingâs eyes, the empress was no different from ordinary people.
âBut I never thought that he would be raised like this by me, nor did I consider whether I would harm him by doing so...â The empress smiled. âToday, Lady Nanâs words did wake me up, and I went back to think about it for a long time before I finally found out that what I have being doing was wrong.â
