When the crowd dispersed, Ren Baqian held the empress’s hand and took a stroll within the palace.
In Dayao, it was more relaxing at night compared to the day. After the sun fell beyond the horizon, the temperature started to drop. When the breeze blew, it gave people peace of mind.
“You have a lot of work to do!” The empress spoke faintly, and she sounded a little regretful.
“The most capable people do the most work!” Ren Baqian laughed gently.
“But it seems that there is nothing for to do…”
“The brains govern the laborers, whereas the laborers work for the brains.” He imdiately tweaked his words.
“Are you a laborer?” The empress smiled.
“Definitely!”
“You just ntioned that the most capable people do the most work.”
“I’m the most capable among the laborers!” Ren Baqian burst out in laughter. This wasn’t even a thing!
However, he now indeed had a lot of things at hand.
He couldn’t afford to hold up the school, and the onus was on him to select the subject of technological breakthrough. After all, according to Dayao’s current standards, they were still a few decades short from having the ability to fully promote the progress of technology. As such, only human intervention was possible at the mont.
In addition, he also had to pay attention to the situation in the Yun Nation, find ways to make money to fill the state treasury and the empress’s small treasury, prepare for the martial arts conference, plan construction of a new city, and place emphasis on the world’s experts in the future.
In fact, if the individual tasks were listed out, there weren’t actually that nurous. Unfortunately, there simply wasn’t anyone else capable enough to do these jobs.
The elders in the imperial court were only good at cutting people with axes.
They hadn’t lost any fights before and also hadn’t failed at cutting people…
If Ren Baqian were to let them handle these ssy things, he would have to be prepared for them to ss it up.
He first had to grasp things in his hands before slowly distributing the workload.
The duo exchanged a few words and stopped talking after a while to enjoy the feeling of having a companion by their side. As newlyweds, both of them felt extra sensitive and emotional.
After so ti, the empress heaved a sigh and said, “It’s been tough on you.”
In the current situation, how would she not know this?
However, there really wasn’t anybody who could take over his position.
Ren Baqian squeezed her hand and said, “There isn’t anything tough about this. I’m extrely curious about this world as well! Besides, my lifespan can be extended after breaking through to the next realm. With my innate skills, I’ll be considered lucky if I can attain the Spirit Wheel level, and it’s very difficult to reach anything higher than that.
Once I get to that stage, it’ll be easier for to break through. I will also have more ti to spend with Your Majesty.”
The duo strolled around the palace and went back to their temporary quarters.
“Take a rest, Your Majesty!” Ren Baqian said as he held her waist.
“Are you not going to sleep in the outer house?” The empress looked at him.
“My kidneys aren’t weak anymore… I think we can continue attempting to reproduce.” Ren Baqian laughed mischievously. He had no choice as she was truly too alluring. If he were to share a bed with her, he was afraid that his waist wouldn’t be able to take the beating.
“I’m already pregnant.” As the empress removed her red muslin, he hung it on the rack.
“Huh?” Ren Baqian was shocked.
It only happened once… Alright, there were many small attempts during that major attempt, but even so, how could she have gotten pregnant so soon? How would she know after just a few days’ ti?
“I’m naturally clear about my own body.” The empress looked a little shy. “I already understood it back when I was on Earth. In order to get pregnant, I have to control the ovulation. I was able to perform this small trick. Besides, I have also made use of the effects of the [Double Cultivation Technique].
Ren Baqian was dumbstruck when he heard this. He never knew that a person was able to have such control after cultivation!
There hadn’t been any such examples in those old fantasy novels!
Besides, didn’t the aboriginals have fertility issues?
“Speaking of self-control, nobody in this world is comparable to .” The empress emphasized when faced with Ren Baqian’s doubts.
He felt that she was indeed a player with all the cheat codes.
Not to ntion that she had a high speed of cultivation, besides watching television dramas and drinking every day, her self control still far exceed other people’s. Those who worked hard honing their abilities every day would be so devastated to hear this.
Ren Baqian finally collected his thoughts after clearing all the confusion in his mind.
The empress is pregnant?
Am I becoming a father?
Damn it—I’m not even ntally prepared yet!
A father… How am I supposed to do that?
How can it happen so fast? I have just gotten married, and I haven’t even brushed my teeth tonight!
Ren Baqian lay stupefied on the bed and slowly cald himself down as he slled the empress’s alluring fragrance.
He had to accept that he was going to beco a father… An originally distant thought had turned into reality so quickly.
As for how to raise a kid… He shouldn’t have to worry about this.
It should take about nine months before the baby was born. With this period of ti, Ren Baqian should be able to sufficiently prepare for it.
Yeah, an aboriginal baby will take nine months to develop, right?
He would have to find out the answer to this tomorrow.
Not long after, the empress grabbed his hand that was misbehaving and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Just touching you…”
…
“Aren’t you just touching?”
“I’m just rubbing you…”
…
Creak, creak, creak.
Soon after, the wooden couch started making creaking noises as they got more intense.
“Softer, Your Majesty!”
“Why are you still calling that?”
“I just like calling you that!” Ren Baqian moaned gently. He preferred to address the empress as Her Majesty instead of by her na. The accomplishnt of embracing the ruler of a nation in his arms…
“Are you not the wildest horse?”
Boom.
The couch collapsed again.
The red veil was like a ball of flas as it rolled around in the room.
The sound of objects colliding could be heard in the vicinity of the palace. It was as if the palace was being demolished.
…
“Is Her Majesty not going to attend court again?” The officials whispered among themselves after they heard the news that Xin Zhe announced. They were waiting outside the palace for the morning court session to comnce.
Especially for those who entered the palace the day before, they hadn’t expected to hear this and had intended to bring up so matters in court.
“Where’s Her Majesty?” Hong Wu frowned.
“Rolling around under a red veil!” Xin Zhe’s response was full of realistic portrayal as it vividly described the scene. She then cupped her hands and returned to the palace.
This left a bunch of people standing outside the palace looking lost.
After all, nobody understood what rolling around under a red veil ant.
That night, a rumble sounded in the palace.
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan rushed over to take a look, and they were on the verge of crying. The empress’s temporary quarters had collapsed… Why was it faster than the previous ti?
“Where’s Her Majesty?”
“She went to Changqing Palace Hall…” Xin Zhe suddenly appeared beside them.
The next day, many officials stood outside the palace and waited for the news that the empress wouldn’t be attending court again.
Shi Qing’s expression kept changing, and he eventually let out a bitter smile.
A day had passed. Furthermore, this wasn’t the morning court session. Everyone roughly understood what was going on. This was the second ti it had happened.
“Why do I sohow feel that… Zhao Prince Consort is hindering the nation’s affairs!” Tong Zhenye smacked his lips.
Everyone imdiately fled the scene.
Even though he wasn’t the only one thinking this, it had already happened twice over a short period of ti. Moreover, it spanned across a few days every ti it happened.
However, everyone imdiately decided to draw a line between themselves and Tong Zhenye. After all, not everyone was as stubborn as him.
That evening, a loud rumble sounded again. With sparkling eyes, Xin Zhe stood in front of the ruins of Changqing Palace Hall. She had a weird expression on her face as well.
She seed curious.
A ball of red shadow plunged into the next empty palace and wriggled on the ground like a cocoon.
Ren Baqian gasped with a hoarse voice and said, “The imperial palace is no longer habitable. Three palaces have already collapsed. What shall we do?”
“Continue!” A charming and alluring voice sounded, one that was able to make any man ignite with passion.
