Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

After Qi Ning was made empress, Yue Zeyuan did not hold a selection of concubines, and there were no other concubines in the harem. Apart from handling state affairs, he slept in Qi Ning's palace every night.

That night, the two lay on the bed, and Yue Zeyuan reached out to touch Qi Ning's flat stomach.

"Why is there no movement yet?"

Qi Ning looked up at him.

"Are you in such a hurry to have a child?"

"No, it's just that I find it strange."

"Something's strange about it."

Qi Ning analyzed to him in a serious tone: "My health was not very good when I was a slave in Chu. It was only after I went to Yue that I gradually recovered. At that time, I was still taking contraceptives."

"After I finally stopped taking contraceptives, you were busy preparing to attack the State of Chu. After defeating Chu and completing the unification, you were even busier with state affairs, so it's normal that we didn't have sex frequently."

After hearing this, Yue Zeyuan chuckled for no apparent reason.

He suddenly rolled over and looked at Qi Ning from above.

"You're right, I haven't been diligent enough. I need to work harder."

After saying that, he lowered his head and buried it in Qi Ning's neck.

Qi Ning was speechless. She had given such a long analysis, yet Yue Zeyuan had only listened to this one point.

Her neck tickled from his kisses, and she quickly pushed him away, saying, "I haven't finished yet. It's not just because of that; there might be other reasons too. These things should be left to nature."

Yue Zeyuan did not stop moving, pressing Qi Ning's hand that was pushing him to his side: "I am just going with the flow right now."

Qi Ning: "..."

As it turns out, you can't just say things carelessly, or you'll pay the price.

Not only that night, but every night afterward, Yue Zeyuan kept thinking about it, wanting to "let nature take its course" with Qi Ning a few more times.

Qi Ning was exhausted every day because of him, so she had to pretend to be angry.

Seeing that Qi Ning seemed genuinely angry with him, Yue Zeyuan tried to coax her again.

"It's my fault for tiring out Ning'er. Don't be angry. In a few days, I'll take you to the imperial palace to stay for a while. How about that?"

Qi Ning's expression softened: "Really?"

"Of course we can't fake it. This time we can stay longer and have some royal relatives and ministers accompany us. It would also be good to have female relatives to keep you company while you drink tea and chat."

Qi Ning was finally satisfied after hearing what he said.

Not long after, they actually set off for the imperial palace.

Having just conquered the former Chu state not long ago, Yue Zeyuan is still temporarily staying in the capital of the former Chu state.

Yue Zeyuan stayed in the south, while most of the aristocratic families in the north also came over.

The palace they visited was naturally the one that originally belonged to the State of Chu.

Of course, the State of Chu no longer exists, and these things now belong to the State of Yue.

After arriving at the imperial palace, Yue Zeyuan was still busy with state affairs and had little time to spend with Qi Ning.

No wonder he had the imperial relatives and ministers bring their female relatives along; it was so that Qi Ning would have someone to keep him company when he was busy.

Qi Ning made some female acquaintances, and every day he had someone to accompany him to drink tea and watch plays, which made it quite lively.

However, Yue Zeyuan didn't just abandon Qi Ning. Whenever he had free time, he would still accompany Qi Ning for walks.

That day, Yue Zeyuan led Qi Ning on a leisurely stroll through the palace.

The weather is getting colder now, and it snowed the night before, so the palace is covered in a white blanket of snow.

Yue Zeyuan held Qi Ning's hand and said to her, "I'm thinking of holding this year's New Year's banquet in this palace. What do you think?"

Putting everything else aside, the scenery in the original royal palace of the Chu Kingdom was quite nice, which was very novel for these people who came from the north.

Qi Ning nodded slightly: "Alright, the roads are difficult to travel in the snow, and all those noble families are in the imperial palace, so there is indeed no need to rush back to the palace."

Just as the two were talking, a young eunuch came over to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Chen, Lord Wu, and Lord Cui are requesting an audience at the Hall of Diligent Governance, saying they have important matters to discuss."

Upon hearing this, Yue Zeyuan's expression turned somewhat displeased.

Qi Ning broke free from Yue Zeyuan's hand: "You go ahead and do your work, I can walk around by myself."

Yue Zeyuan then said, "I know what they want to say. It won't take long. I'll be right back. You can take a walk around the neighborhood. I'll come back to pick you up later."

"it is good."

After Qi Ning agreed, Yue Zeyuan hurriedly left with his servants.

Yulan helped Qi Ning and they walked slowly forward together.

But Qi Ning had only taken a few steps when she suddenly felt dizzy and almost collapsed.

"Mom, be careful!"

Two voices rang out in unison, one from Yulan and the other from a man.

At the same time, Qi Ning's other arm was also supported by a hand.

Once Qi Ning had steadied herself and looked up, she saw that the person who had come was actually Prince Rui.

"Is Your Highness alright?" Yue Zerui asked, looking at Qi Ning.

Qi Ning withdrew the hand he was supporting: "Thank you, Your Highness, I am fine."

"That's good."

Yue Zerui had a smile on his face.

He was younger than Yue Zeyuan. Although he looked somewhat similar to Yue Zeyuan, he appeared more childish and had a more cheerful and unrestrained personality.

"What are you doing here, Your Highness?"

"Your Majesty, I went out to enjoy the snow and happened to meet you."

Yue Zerui explained, then said, "Your Majesty didn't seem to have slipped; it was more like dizziness. Your complexion isn't very good either. Perhaps I should send someone to fetch an imperial physician to examine Your Majesty."

Qi Ning was about to say no, but Yue Zerui had already sent away his eunuchs.

He then said, "Why don't you go sit in the pavilion over there and wait?"

Qi Ning glanced at Yue Zerui. She hadn't interacted with him much before and didn't know he was so enthusiastic.

However, Yue Zeyuan just said that he would come back to pick her up, so she can just sit and wait.

"Alright."

Qi Ning responded and then led Yulan to sit down in the pavilion.

The pavilion was surrounded by curtains to keep out the cold, and a fire was burning inside, making it much warmer than outside.

Yue Zerui followed him in and sat down in front of Qi Ning without any hesitation.

"There is something that has been puzzling me for a long time. Now that I have met Your Majesty, may I ask Your Majesty to enlighten me?"

He originally had something he wanted to say to her.

Qi Ning was somewhat curious about what Yue Zerui wanted to say.

"What doubts does Your Highness have?"

Yue Zerui didn't say it directly, but instead looked at the magnolia next to Qi Ning.

Qi Ning gave Yulan a look.

Yulan understood immediately and went to wait outside the curtain.

Qi Ning picked up the hot tea on the table, took a sip, and said indifferently, "Your Highness, please speak quickly if you have something to say."

Yue Zerui then smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that my brother said to others that the Empress was a spy he sent to Chu in his early years, rather than a Chu maid who deceived him... In my opinion, I'm afraid that's not true, is it?"

Yue Zeyuan's excuse might fool others, but it wouldn't fool him.

Do you still remember how ugly Yue Zeyuan's face was when he returned to the Imperial Study after Yun Jing caused a scene at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?

If Qi Ning really was a spy he sent to Chu, and if he hadn't been deceived, he wouldn't have reacted that way.

Yue Zerui looked at Qi Ning with a probing gaze.

If his guess is correct, Qi Ning should indeed be a maid from the State of Chu. Not only did she deceive his elder brother, but his elder brother did not get angry with her; instead, he defended her.

Later, as a mere maid, she was able to draw maps of the Chu Kingdom and cleverly exploit the entanglements between Chu Hanfeng, Yun Jing, and Shen Yixiao to conquer the Chu Kingdom.

All these things show that her methods are exceptionally powerful.

Qi Ning never expected that Yue Zerui's so-called doubt was about this matter.

Of course, she couldn't tell him the truth.

Qi Ning said with a half-smile, "Your Highness even doubts His Majesty's words?"

Yue Zerui quickly said, "That's not what I meant, I was just curious."

"If Your Highness is truly curious, why not ask His Majesty directly?"

Yue Zerui found Qi Ning's ambiguous words even more intriguing.

"Can't Your Majesty clear up my doubts?"

He had barely finished speaking when footsteps suddenly came from outside the curtain.

Then came Yue Zeyuan's voice: "Where is your empress?"

Yulan, who was standing guard outside the curtain, replied, "Your Majesty, the Empress is inside the pavilion."
