...

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 doing?"

"It's nothing serious."

Zhao Wujiang sat next to the empress. He rubbed his fingers. Some things cannot be hidden. Dugu Mingyue's pregnancy can be hidden for a day or two, but it cannot be hidden forever.

He thought for a while and said:

"Dugu Mingyue is pregnant..."

"Zhao Wujiang, 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 was 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 understand..." Zhao Wujiang's smile did not disappear, but his eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter:

"But I might not agree..."

"I don't care whether you agree or not, I am the emperor, this child cannot..." The empress looked into Zhao Wujiang's eyes. The depth in her eyes caused many emotions to surge in her heart, and her tone softened slightly:

"cannot..."

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 crown prince of Daxia and the heir apparent in the future...

So you can't accept...

Then...what if it's a girl..."

There seemed to be sobs in the Empress's throat. She swallowed hard and didn't know what to say. When Zhao Wujiang talked about the girl, her heart was deeply touched.

"If it were a girl, what you are worried about would not happen..." Zhao Wujiang said in a sincere tone.

The empress blinked her long eyelashes, her eyes seemed a little warm:

"But this is if I don't want to gamble, I won't gamble!"

"Can't Daxia tolerate a girl?" Zhao Wujiang rubbed his fingers, his eyes focused.

"You are right, Zhao Wujiang."

The empress stood up, her eyes red and filled 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?"

"But this is different, that child won't fight for power..."

Zhao Wujiang wanted to comfort the empress, and he also wanted to persuade the empress, but the two were in conflict at the moment, so he stretched out his hand, but then retracted it helplessly.

"It's different." The empress' eyes trembled:

"But I will not allow a slight 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 status as a daughter, I'll do it!"

"You can tolerate such a thing..." The empress' heart trembled, and her throat became increasingly indistinct. She turned her face away, her eyes red and moist.

"You can't tolerate the child in Dugu Mingyue's belly, so I'll do it." Zhao Wujiang's tone was unquestionable and he walked out slowly, feeling a little tired.

The empress shouted angrily:

"Zhao Wujiang, you can't stop me. The orthodoxy of the Xia Dynasty and the Xuanyuan family cannot be broken!"

"I don't know..." 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 bloodline, Zhao Wujiang's?" Zhao Wujiang let out a long sigh and stepped outside the house.

"So...what?" 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 I tolerate his bloodline? 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 had not 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 accommodate girls... The empress's heart was boiling. She told Zhao Wujiang that she couldn't. She said harsh words, and it was the truth. She didn't dare to gamble...

Things will get better as time goes by, let's think about it tomorrow... She took a long breath, trying to get rid of the confusing thoughts in her heart.

...

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. By then, he will definitely take another step forward in the martial arts.

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.
