However, the development of the matter was far beyond the Taoist priests' expectations.

One day, three days, seven days...

The Taoist priests drank tea. They drank a lot of tea. They continued to drink tea until they were about to vomit...

By the tenth day, the Taoist priests finally couldn't hold it in any longer.

Taoist Master Wen slammed the table and said, "I am almost full from drinking tea. And you only serve tea to us. What's the matter? Are you trying to send us off with tea?"

When these words were spoken, many Taoist priests were stunned. Oh shit, it seems that this is really what he meant!

Taoist Master Wen's face darkened even more, and he said angrily, "Bah! We came here to clean up the mess and save Da Xia from danger, but we were treated like this. Da Xia really doesn't know what's good for them. Don't you want to hold the Spring Festival anymore?"

The Taoists became even angrier when they heard this, and some of them said they wanted to leave and not care about the Xia Kingdom anymore.

Taoist Master Wen suddenly said, "No, if we just leave like this, that liar might spread the news that our Dragon Tiger Dojo lost, and we got scared of him and ran away in disgrace."

The Taoists who were shouting that they wanted to leave suddenly shut up.

Taoist Zhou stood up and said, "He doesn't even dare to reveal any information about his biological father. He is so afraid to see us, which is enough to prove that the Taoist behind the scenes is guilty and there is nothing to be afraid of. Don't worry, I have a way to enter the palace to see the Taoist and expose him."

The Taoists looked at him and asked, "How do we do this?"

Taoist Zhou said, "I have been to a mansion to treat illnesses before and saved an old man. That old man was the father of Concubine De. I asked him to help recommend someone. I believe it."

The Taoists suddenly realized and asked, "But what reason do you have to meet them, and how can you expose them?"

Taoist Zhou sneered, then said confidently: "That person succeeded in recommending the baby as the national teacher, which proves that Xiaguo fell for it. I found a white-skinned pregnant woman in the countryside and said that the little national teacher was a fake, and the one she was carrying in her belly was the destined son of God. I built up momentum again, ha, isn't this more powerful than the baby's national destiny! I've already started to destroy his rice bowl, I don't believe he can still endure it and not come out to challenge me!"

The fellow Taoists all gave thumbs up: "It's high, really high! Go quickly!"

Taoist Priest Zhou tidied up his appearance and said confidently, "Just wait for me for a day, no, three days will be enough."

The Taoists nodded in trust.

Taoist Zhou went to find Defei's father, the chancellor of the capital city, with high morale.

As mentioned before, the emperor, the crown prince and several ministers decided to leave the Taoist priest alone and secretly investigate the truth, but this was not said loudly in the court, at least the prime minister was not aware of it.

What's more coincidental is that the Prime Minister of the Capital City has been struggling to find a way to become the Governor of the Capital City.

Now he heard from Taoist Zhou that the pregnant woman he was carrying was pregnant with the true son of God, and that it was the will of heaven that conceived the child. He hoped that the prime minister could help introduce her to the emperor.

The chancellor of the capital city was instantly moved. He did not question Yuan Ruan. The chancellor was just thinking, the emperor values ​​Taoist child prodigies so much. If he could recommend a genuine son of God, would His Majesty be very pleased and promote him?

With this idea in mind, the chancellor of the capital city asked his wife to apply to enter the palace and decided to discuss it with his daughter, Concubine De.

Yilan Palace

The Prime Minister's wife had just stepped into the main hall when she saw the Fifth Prince throwing a tantrum and crying, "I want the Iron-eating Beast, I want the Iron-eating Beast, the newest one!"

There was a palace maid nearby who tried to dissuade him, but she was beaten by the Fifth Prince until her hair was disheveled, and she could only kneel down and beg.

At this time, Concubine De came down with her eyebrows pinched, and said gently: "Mother, is everything okay at home?"

The wife of the Prime Minister nodded hurriedly: "All is well, all is well. Your Majesty, is everything well? This Fifth Prince is..."

De Fei pinched her brows with a headache: "After the banquet for selecting a consort for the Second Princess, many more people sent gifts to the Ninth Princess. There was a constant stream of people and cars in front of Kunning Palace. My Fifth Son wanted some when he saw it, but the Ninth Princess was too petty and refused. My Fifth Son was wronged."

The wife of the chancellor frowned, "The Ninth Princess? The little imperial tutor? This..." After a pause, she handed the letter in her hand to Concubine De, "Originally, your father asked me to make this trip. I was a little nervous, but considering the situation in the palace, why don't you introduce one or two."

When Concubine De saw the words "pregnant through inspiration, son of God, introduced", she was stunned and a little moved.

Concubine De asked, "Mother, is this real?"

"Master Zhou has cured your father's illness. He is also a highly respected master in the Dragon and Tiger Taoist Temple. His words cannot be false." The prime minister's wife said.

Concubine De nodded and waited to see her mother off.

As soon as he returned to the palace, the fifth prince screamed again.

Concubine De pinched her brows and said to the trusted palace maid beside her: "Wu'er is the most attached to the Third Prince. Go and ask the Third Prince to come and take Wu'er out to relax."

The palace maid was startled and could not help but whispered: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specially arranged for the Third Prince to go to school with the Crown Prince's tutor. If we call him back now..." Calling him back at this last minute would not only anger the Crown Prince and the officials of the Eastern Palace, but would also affect the development of the Third Prince.

De Fei rubbed her brows and said calmly, "This is his brother, it's his due."

The maid didn't dare to speak.

Concubine De's eyes fell on the "Pregnant God's Son" again, and she said softly, "If it's true, if there is a competitor, she can at least restrain herself a little and stop bullying my Wu'er all the time."

Thinking of this, Concubine De stood up and said, "I am going to see His Majesty. You keep an eye on Wu'er. Let him smash as much as he wants, but don't let him hurt himself."

The palace maids all bowed and said, "Yes, we respectfully send your Majesty off."

A moment later, Concubine De came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, holding a box of carefully made, freshly baked desserts.

As soon as she walked in, she happened to see the emperor coming out, followed by the queen holding Yuan Ruan.

Defei saluted and subconsciously avoided Yuanruan's sight.

Just at this moment, Yuanruan's inner voice rang out:

[Brother, you are really busy! Hmm? What is this smell? It smells so good. ]

The Emperor and the Empress' eyes fell on Concubine De's food box at the same time.

System: [It smells good. Hehe, do you know how Concubine De got promoted? Your elder brother actually likes to eat sweets very much, but he thinks it will damage his image so he resists eating them. However, this little secret was discovered by Concubine De, who is a good cook. Since then, she often secretly makes desserts to fish, and the emperor is also happy to have a place where he can eat desserts freely. ]

Yuanruan: [Pfft, brother, you have a dessert brain. You are so good at eating so much but not getting fat. ]

System: [Hahaha, Ah Ruan, how did he get so fat? One drop of semen equals ten drops of blood, and there are so many concubines today alone...]

"Ahem, ahem, ahem..." The emperor pinched his brows awkwardly and looked at Concubine De and said, "You want me to help you take this box to the inner study hall of Wenhua Palace again? I've already said that the Imperial Household Department will not lack food and drink for the princes, so you don't have to worry too much about the Third Prince. You don't have to send it anymore in the future."

Concubine De:?

Queen:?

The two were stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

The Queen lowered her head to hold back her laughter. Concubine De was biting her teeth and said dryly, "Your Majesty, I am afraid that the prince will be hungry if he studies too hard... If Your Majesty does not mind, why not Your Majesty..."

"I don't like sweets. Queen..." The emperor looked at the queen seriously, "Take it back and share it with her."

Yuanruan: [Hiss, Tong'er, this is not right. Defei is obviously doing this for the sake of the baby, and my brother doesn't like sweets. But it's okay, I'm the only one who heard it, and it's quite interesting. ]

System: [Woo woo, luckily Ah Ruan doesn't despise me. I will definitely try my best to find the emperor's melon in the future.]

The emperor had just shown a relieved expression, but when he heard the last half of the sentence, he choked.

The queen watched the emperor act like a tiger, only to lose his dessert and have the melon exploded. She tried hard to recall the hardships of her life and not laugh.

System: [Hahaha, this is so funny. I just happened to see a melon related to the emperor's harem, and it's also related to the queen.]

Yuanruan: [What? I've been looking forward to it for the whole time. ]

The queen's smile also froze.

The emperor glanced at the queen with a smile: Why aren't you smiling anymore?
