Childbirth System: Become the Goddess of Mercy who grants children to the male protagonist!

Seeing that all was lost, the Prime Minister knew that he was doomed to die today.

Regardless of how the emperor discovered his subtle actions, or the inexplicable appearance of the dragon robe—

The prime minister looked up at Xu Fu, gritted his teeth, and kowtowed heavily.

"It's all the old minister's fault."

"It was this old minister who harbored rebellious intentions; the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince knew nothing of this matter."

"We implore Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly and spare their lives—"

"Spare my family's lives!!!" the Prime Minister cried out in anguish.

His forehead slammed against the ground again and again, and in no time it was a bloody mess.

The steward's action immediately silenced the officials who had pleaded for him.

The scene fell silent; in the vast hall, even the sound of breathing vanished...

Xu Fu couldn't just stand by and watch the prime minister kowtow to his death in front of him.

When the person was teetering on the brink of collapse, he finally spoke.

"Everyone heard that, right? The Prime Minister himself confessed."

"Since that's the case," Xu Fu paused, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"Considering the Prime Minister's tireless dedication to the court—"

"All male members of the Prime Minister's residence shall be executed in the autumn."

"All women in the family will be demoted to commoners and expelled from the capital, never to return!!!"

Xu Fu wanted to continue speaking, but the prime minister burst into tears and pleaded for his daughter and grandson.

"Your Majesty, it is all my fault. I beg you, Your Majesty, to consider the Second Prince's situation."

"Spare the Imperial Concubine's life—"

"All the mistakes are the fault of the guilty officials; they have nothing to do with them!"

Xu Fu snorted coldly, looking into the Prime Minister's hopeful eyes.

He said coldly, "The Imperial Concubine is demoted to a commoner and banished to the Cold Palace, never to leave again—"

"As for the Second Prince," Xu Fu smiled, "since the Prime Minister is so concerned..."

"Then let him guard your Prime Minister's residence, and he shall not leave without being summoned."

Then I'll chant sutras and pray for you three times a day, and kowtow and offer incense—”

"What does the Prime Minister think?"

Xu Fu's words implied that he had turned the second prince into a cripple.

Officials who had connections with the imperial harem and whose concubines had children, upon hearing Xu Fu's arrangement...

Suddenly feeling a sense of impending doom, another group knelt down, intending to continue pleading for the Second Prince.

Although they belong to opposing factions, some face still needs to be given.

At the very least, one must appear compassionate and merciful in front of the emperor...

"My mind is made up. Let it be carried out this way—" Xu Fu waved his hand.

He directly ordered the eunuchs to draft the imperial edict, and then imprisoned the prime minister in the imperial jail.

Xu Fu looked at the person kneeling on the ground, a hint of a smile appearing in his eyes.

He raised his hand and announced loudly, "Dismiss the court!"

"emperor!"

"emperor--"

"Your Majesty, I have something to say, but I'm unsure whether I should."

None of the officials rose; they all stared expectantly at Xu Fu.

Xu Fu was not in a hurry to leave, and looked at everyone with a half-smile.

"You all don't want to leave, are you? Have you made some mistake and want to come to me to confess?!"

"Alright, then I'll listen carefully—" Xu Fu straightened his posture leisurely.

"Who's first? Come up here and tell me what you've all been up to behind my back!"

Xu Fu's outburst left the opposing side speechless.

After exchanging glances, the highest-ranking official present was the Minister.

He was pushed forward, looking at Xu Fu with a helpless yet resentful expression.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty—" he stammered as he submitted his memorial, unable to utter a single word.

Xu Fu didn't mind the other party's cowardly attitude, and waved his hand...

"Alright, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't—" Xu Fu added with a smile.

"I will have someone investigate. You'd better keep your claws out of your hands—"

"If I find out, the consequences will be no better than those of the Prime Minister!"

After Xu Fu finished speaking, he picked up Xiao Bai and left the Hall of Diligent Governance without looking back.

Once the person had walked away, the eunuch shouted to the officials.

"Retreat—"

Then the man hurried off to catch up with Xu Fu.

"Does it have to be this time, this time?!" Xiaobai glanced at Xu Fu and asked helplessly.

Xu Fu flicked the other man's forehead with his fist, and said angrily,

"You ungrateful little brat, who am I doing all this for?!"

"How can I push you up if I don't clear the obstacles for you?!"

"You are now the Crown Prince, and the tiny bit of dragon energy within you is not enough for your cultivation!"

Xu Fu was right; Xiao Bai had just absorbed the dragon energy from him.

His cultivation progressed rapidly, and he grew taller as if the wind were blowing through him—

But after a while, the amount of dragon energy absorbed decreased, and people grew more slowly.

Therefore, Xu Fu planned to clear away all obstacles and directly place Xiaobai on the throne of the emperor.

This allows him to directly connect with the nation's destiny, simultaneously giving back and absorbing its essence.

It would be better to take advantage of this time and let Xiaobai cultivate into a human.

Once they leave this world, they may not have such a good opportunity again...

"Okay," Xiaobai muttered, gesturing to show her height.

She's just reached Xu Fu's abdomen, and Xu Fu is barely 1.8 meters tall!

Xu Fu's words were not false; a group of people cleaned up the mess left by the prime minister efficiently.

Another group thoroughly investigated all the officials...

Those who reacted quickly and cut their losses in time, such as the Minister of Works,

He directly attributed all the good deeds he had done to his subordinates.

Pulling out the radish brought out the mud; Xu Fu ordered dozens of people to be executed before the Minister lost an arm...

Seeing that both major figures had nearly fallen, the censors unleashed their most powerful methods.

Studying this book today, studying that book tomorrow!

Xu Fu followed behind, plundering what he could, committing murder and confiscating property—

Within just three months, his own private stash was piled high with boxes...

Xu Fu waved his hand and sent two-thirds of the harvest directly to the head of the secret guards.

He recruited a whole new batch of people!

Head of the secret guards: Damn it! Another job.

Tens of thousands of people are training deep in the mountains, and there isn't a single bird or beast within a ten-kilometer radius!

Seeing that the number of people he was training had exceeded 8,

When we do morning exercises, the neighboring mountains seem to tremble...

Their activities are about to be exposed!

The emperor was even happy to send them money and wanted to recruit more people...

Xu Fu was only responsible for giving orders, so naturally he was unaware of the details.

Seeing the stunned expression on the head of the secret guards' face, Xu Fu assumed that the man was shocked by this incredible surprise...

Xu Fu has been extremely busy lately.

The previous dynasty replaced about thirty officials, and dozens of concubines in the harem fell from grace.

Most of them are the kind who have children.

Xu Fu was somewhat at a loss and could only look to Xiaobai for help.

"Am I supposed to banish all these princes?!"

"Should we leave a few astute individuals to live as leisurely princes?!"
