After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

In the Yue Kingdom, in the Imperial Palace, Concubine Ji looked at Emperor Wu Ren sitting on the dragon throne and asked with feigned worry, "Your Majesty, how is your illness? I am so worried."

"Hahahaha...it's okay, it's okay," Emperor Wu Ren laughed twice and said.

"Your Majesty, you really scared me to death. I haven't been able to eat or sleep well these past few days," Concubine Ji said coquettishly.

"I made my beloved concubine worry... cough... cough cough." As he spoke, Emperor Wu Ren couldn't help coughing twice.

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Ji was about to speak, but suddenly stopped talking, covered her chest, and began to retch.

"What's wrong with you, my beloved concubine?" Emperor Wu Ren asked hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has had a poor appetite these past few days. She can't eat and is always vomiting," said a nanny behind Imperial Concubine Ji.

"Oh, go and call the imperial physician quickly," Emperor Wu Ren ordered hurriedly.

After a while, an imperial physician hurried in.

"Go and show it to the imperial concubine quickly," Emperor Wu Ren ordered.

The imperial physician hurried over, placed his fingers on Concubine Ji's wrist, and carefully felt her pulse for a moment. Then he lowered his hand, knelt down with a beaming expression, and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The Concubine is pregnant!"

"Is this... true?" Emperor Wu Ren asked in surprise.

"The imperial concubine's pulse is smooth and round, which is undoubtedly a pregnancy pulse," said the imperial physician.

"Hahaha... My beloved concubine is actually pregnant with my dragon offspring. You have worked so hard for me." Emperor Wu Ren was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Your Majesty," Concubine Ji called out shyly.

"When my beloved concubine gives birth to a prince, I will definitely reward her handsomely," Emperor Wu Ren said as he took Concubine Ji's hand and patted it.

In the East Palace study, Jing Yu sat behind the desk, still not recovered from the shock of last night.

Jindou turned out to be a girl! Jing Yu felt that his head was in a mess and he couldn't make sense of it.

Why didn't I realize it at all? If I had known that Jindou was a girl, I would have forced her to stay even if she didn't want to, right?

Jing Yu reached out and opened the book on the table again. He picked up a sunflower petal and placed it in his palm. Jindou's every frown and smile seemed to appear before his eyes again.

Jing Yu felt that the golden beans were like the sunflowers she gave him, which made people feel warm and nostalgic at all times.

Ever since Jindou left, the palace has returned to its former desolate state. Jing Yu, who grew up in this desolate and oppressive environment, longs for this warmth and is attached to it.

The golden beans were like a ray of sunshine, bringing vitality and hope to this lifeless palace.

During the days when Jindou was around, Jing Yu felt that every day was full of vitality and filled with the flavor of life.

The current Crown Princess is dignified, beautiful, and gentle in nature. She is a qualified Crown Princess with no faults to be found in her.

But Jingyu always felt that he could not feel any passion or expectation when he was with the Crown Princess.

He felt that he was only fulfilling his responsibilities as a prince for the benefit of the country. This kind of marriage made him feel tired every moment.

He had originally prepared to spend his whole life in this marriage devoid of happiness and passion, but now that he knew that Jindou was actually a girl, in an instant, the longing that he had tried so hard to suppress suddenly erupted like a volcano, blazing!

What should he do now? Jing Yu's mind was in a mess and he had no idea what to do!

"Knock, knock, knock." Before Jing Yu could think about it, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He closed the book and put it aside carefully. Jing Yu opened his mouth and said, "Come in."

A guard came in, bowed and clasped his fists, and said, "Your Highness, there's news from the Emperor that the Imperial Concubine is pregnant."

"Are you pregnant?" Jing Yu raised his eyebrows.

In the Eastern Palace, in the bedroom of the Crown Prince and his wife, Princess Jing'an sat quietly on the bed, holding Xiaobai in her arms.

"Crown Princess" Yingxiang pushed the door open and walked in hurriedly.

"Crown Princess, I heard from the Emperor that the Imperial Concubine is pregnant," Yingxiang said to Princess Jing'an.

"Are you pregnant?" Princess Jing'an was stunned. Thinking of the emperor's expression she saw yesterday, she couldn't help but feel full of doubts.

"Yes, it is said that the imperial physician has already taken my pulse," Yingxiang continued speaking, while Princess Jing'an, who was sitting on the bed, lowered her head and began to think.

When I looked at the emperor's complexion yesterday, it didn't look like the cold wind entering the lungs as the imperial physician said, nor did it look like poisoning. So what exactly caused the emperor's health to become like this?

Princess Jing'an sighed softly: Oh, if only Jindou were here.

"Princess, I heard that the prince sat in the study all night last night. Is everything okay between you and the prince?" Yingxiang asked again with some concern.

The prince sat in the study all night? Princess Jing'an was a little surprised.

Last night, the two of them just talked for a while, and the prince suddenly stood up and said he had something to do in the study, and then he did not come back all night.

Did she say something wrong? Princess Jing'an thought about it. She had just told the prince that Jindou was a girl, and the prince seemed to change his expression. He pushed the door open and left, making an excuse that he had something to do.

Could it be that the prince... Princess Jing'an shook her head and comforted herself in her heart, no, no, I must be overthinking it.

Late at night, in Concubine Ji's palace, the masked man in black jumped in through the window again.

"How is it? Did anyone find out?" Concubine Ji asked in panic.

"Don't worry, no one has discovered us," said the masked man. To be on the safe side, he changed several routes when he came here just now. Even if there were people following him, they would have been shaken off long ago.

"How is it? How is the baby?" The masked man touched Concubine Ji's belly with his hand.

"Very good," said Concubine Ji, knocking away the masked man's hand on her stomach, and turned around to sit on the couch.

"Haha...that's good..." The masked man was about to continue laughing when he was interrupted by Concubine Ji anxiously: "Keep your voice down, don't let anyone outside hear you!"

"Don't worry." The masked man also sat on the soft couch, stretched out an arm to hug Concubine Ji, and said proudly: "The old emperor is now at the end of his life. From now on, the world will belong to us two."

"From what I've seen of the emperor today, I estimate that he won't have much time left. Once the emperor passes away, we will act according to the plan and let this family meet in the underworld early," said Concubine Ji viciously.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem here," the masked man also said.

"You should go back now, otherwise you will be discovered if you stay here for too long." Concubine Ji took away the masked man's hand on her shoulder and urged him.

"It's only been a short time. Let me stay a little longer," the masked man said as he hugged Concubine Ji again.

"Leave now!" Concubine Ji pulled the masked man's hand away again and said angrily, "Now that the Eastern Palace knows I'm pregnant with the Dragonborn, they must be very nervous. Don't come here for the next few days unless you have anything to do, lest you get discovered and ruin everything!"

"Then I'll go first." The masked man had no choice but to stand up and walk a few steps to the window. He stuck his head out to look around, then jumped out and quickly disappeared into the night.
