Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

"I haven't made up my mind yet."

A strong desire to kill had surged in his heart before, and he really wanted to deal with the queen immediately.

Now that Shen Muxue knows about it, he can't act rashly, otherwise she might misunderstand him as a bloodthirsty person.

The emperor did not want the woman in his arms to look at him as a bystander and hoped that she would support him.

Then, he suddenly turned over and pressed on her, looking down at Shen Muxue below.

"Are you afraid?"

Moonlight filtered into the room through the cracks in the window, illuminating half of the emperor's face while hiding the other half in darkness, giving people a gloomy feeling.

Shen Muxue felt the tightly surrounding atmosphere and the warm and moist breath coming towards her, and she couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster and her face getting hot.

"I am worried because the imperial physician said there are risks if you sleep with me before three months."

After these words were spoken, the emperor froze for a moment - it was obvious that this was not the answer he expected to hear.

In reality, he wanted to know how she would react to his decision.

Never mind, he no longer needs an answer.

Because he knew very well that his Cher had a unique way of thinking.

"Do you really have to treat the Queen like this? My subjects might say I was instigating you to do this, and they might even brand me a 'witch concubine.'"

He held Shen Muxue in his arms again, carefully tidied the blanket beside her, and said gently, "Don't worry, I will handle this matter carefully and will never affect your reputation."

"I hesitated before because that woman spread lies about me and killed innocent people. Also, when she mentioned our child who tragically passed away...

I was so angry that I wanted to take action."

It turns out that the truth was not the so-called curse but a drama planned by the Queen Mother!

"Perhaps the Queen can come forward and expose the Queen Mother's true face, and use this opportunity to clear up all the slanders against Your Majesty."

But the emperor's answer was unexpected.

"None of this is important to me. Just having you by my side is enough."

They hugged each other tightly, and from this sentence, Shen Muxue could feel that every word he said to her was very sincere.

Time has changed so many things. After experiencing countless hardships, he is no longer the young emperor who was young and energetic and was looking for beauties everywhere.

The only thing I desire is to have a close partner to spend my life with, that's all.

"So what arrangements do you plan to make for Her Majesty the Queen Mother?"

"I intend to let her leave this world peacefully."

"Actually, I've always known about the Queen, but I just didn't know how to start talking about it..."

"I understand in my heart."

She looked quietly at the mosquito net hanging above, and found that the man in her arms seemed to have unloaded all his burdens and showed a detached attitude.

There was little warmth in his life, and even the kindness he had received became pale and powerless.

Although the two enemies must be eliminated to prevent further trouble in the future, if murders occur one after another, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from the outside world, especially negative rumors against His Majesty himself, which will probably become more rampant.

It is even heartbreaking to let them die too honorably, because these two people really do not deserve such courtesy.

So he gently suggested, "Sometimes sacrificing one's reputation to achieve one's goals isn't worth it."

In response to this, the emperor simply responded with an indifferent look.

Shen Muxue turned over and lay on her side, snuggling against the emperor's chest, pressing her cheek against his heartbeat, and slowly trailing tiny kisses along his skin.

Noticing the sudden tensing of his muscles, she quickly stopped, knowing better than to tease him too much.

"What I care about is your Majesty's hard work for the people of the world. I hope that your reputation will last forever, rather than just being remembered as your harsh side."

The soft voice flowed in the night, and the two of them did not rest and fall asleep until late at night.

The next morning, Shen Muxue rushed straight to the place where the queen was imprisoned, wanting to learn more about the current situation from her, determined not to let the damage to the queen mother's reputation disappear quietly.

About an hour later, when she was leaving, Nanny Yu came to report, "The Queen Mother is not feeling well, and someone has sent someone to invite you to come and look after her."

"I am not feeling well myself, so I won't go."

Ignoring the Queen Mother's provocation, she was now fully focused on thinking about how to expose the Queen Mother's misdeeds.

Noticing that Nanny Yu seemed to want to say something, he asked, "Anything else?"

"actually……

Earlier today, the Queen Mother ordered all ladies of the third rank or higher to come and take care of her."

This situation is indeed puzzling. When he was sick, instead of seeking treatment from the imperial physician, he summoned a group of female relatives. Why?

"Go and find out the reason immediately!"

Nanny Yu returned with Shen Lingwei not long after: "Sister, why didn't you go to help the Queen Mother?"

Shen Lingwei gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, choking slightly with sobs: "The Queen Mother is worried that I might be pregnant and shouldn't overwork myself, so she ordered me to go back to the mansion to rest first."

"I heard that the Queen Mother caught a cold wind last night and suffered a severe headache this morning. Normally, the Empress is by her side, but when I summoned her today, I learned she was also feeling unwell. Therefore, I had no choice but to summon the other ladies to assist."

At this point, Shen Lingwei glanced up at Shen Muxue and continued, "When everyone present learned that the Queen was seriously ill and wanted to visit her, they were stopped by the Queen Mother. It is said that in order to ensure that the Queen can rest and recuperate to welcome the new life, it is not recommended to visit her immediately."

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Obviously, this was a threatening signal sent by the Queen Mother to Shen Lingwei: if the Queen was not released, the fact that the latter was under house arrest would be exposed, and the public would be cleverly led to speculate that the reason behind this was that the Emperor favored his favorite and alienated his wife.

"Thank you for the reminder, sister. It seems necessary to go and see the Queen's condition in person."

Unexpectedly, the other party could actually point out the location accurately, so Shen Lingwei left to report the news to the Queen Mother.

Faced with the impending changes, if people were not allowed to see the queen standing alive in a few days, rumors would inevitably arise.

At the same time, we also consider that no matter what the outcome is, the Queen Mother will definitely make arrangements to ensure her own safety.

Therefore, the first priority should be to encourage the Queen to reveal the Queen Mother's true identity and strive to gain her trust before her plan is implemented to prevent her from biting back and causing greater harm.

During the meal, Shen Muxue told the emperor the whole incident and its potential threats.

"Since you're already pregnant, there's no need to worry too much. If any ministers question whether there's anything unusual going on, I'll take the blame..."

Listening to their husbands' slightly anxious yet extremely firm words, the women present also felt their hearts tremble slightly.

Before he finished speaking, Shen Muxue kissed him. After a long while, she panted and said, "Let me handle this matter. I will definitely bring disgrace to them. If I don't do a good enough job, how about the emperor personally take action?"
