"Your Highness, what a joyous occasion! Someone from the front courtyard has come and said that the Prince will be visiting Qijing Courtyard tonight!" Banqing exclaimed excitedly.

"Princess, your good days are finally coming," Banqing said with a smile.

"When we went to fetch the meal before, Consort Guo and Consort Nian's maid were incredibly infuriating..."

"Banqing, you're so outspoken! Every tree in this mansion can talk. If someone finds out, I can't save you. I'll punish you by making you copy the Diamond Sutra ten times to calm your mind. This is a one-time exception!" Su Yunyi said sternly.

"Yes, Princess. But the most important thing now is to dress her up nicely, so that she can make a stunning impression and give the Prince a good impression!"

"Don't worry too much, we have a long life ahead of us in this mansion, just dress normally!" Su Yunyi smiled.

She didn't care much about a shared cucumber, and as for the pregnancy, she needed to plan it out further. It would be best to wait and pick up the scraps later, so that she wouldn't miss out on watching the show and wouldn't become a thorn in someone else's side.

[System, I remember that interstellar spacecraft developed a potion that can induce pregnancy, right?]

Yes, host, would you like it? I have plenty in stock!

Are there any failed or partially successful medications?

Yes, it exists. It's a potion from two hundred years before humanity's extinction. Children born from it are often weak and sickly, and may have genetic problems. Furthermore, the sex of the offspring is uncertain.

[That's exactly what I want. Aren't Lady Nian, Lady Feng, and Lady Fei infertile? Give each of them a dose and throw the household into chaos.]

Fifteen minutes later, the system's voice came again.

[Host, the system has already remotely placed the substance into their food. It's been observed that all three of them are using it; if a man stays overnight with them, they will become pregnant.]

[Host, would you like to use the medicine now?]

【Wait a little longer, until two of them are pregnant before using it. You help me with contraception first.】

【OK. 】

To be honest, she was prepared for this task of serving the emperor. After all, it wasn't her first time doing this, and her age added up to several thousand years. As long as she behaved properly and gained some respect from Yongzheng, that would be enough. She didn't need to be too outstanding or too silent. If she bore him a few children, Yongzheng wouldn't treat her too badly for the sake of the children.

After thinking for a while, I saw that Banlan and Banqing were still choosing clothes and accessories.

"Princess, what do you think of this light blue cheongsam?"

“Okay, this one will do. Just add an orchid hairpin and it’ll be perfect.” Su Yunyi noticed the jewelry on Banqing’s hand.

"Princess, isn't this too plain? How about wearing a pair of pearl earrings?"

"Don't make too much of a fuss. The prince can come over after he has finished his dinner in the front courtyard. We won't be together for long; he'll need to rest afterward." Su Yunyi glanced up and saw that the sun was about to set.

"Princess, let's have dinner first!" Banlan carried dinner into the room.

"Let's serve the meal!"

After Su Yunyi finished her dinner, she went to the side hall to wash and bathe.

It slowly got dark.

"His Highness has arrived!" Su Peisheng's voice broke the tranquility of Qijing Courtyard. A man with sharp, bright eyes and a handsome appearance walked in. (Historically, Prince Yong was very thin, and can be seen as Zhao Hongfei; this Fourth Prince's image fits the description well.) Prince Yong didn't look like he was in his early forties; he was well-maintained, probably due to his preference for a vegetarian diet.

Su Yunyi quickly stood up and curtsied, saying, "This humble servant, Su, greets Your Highness. May Your Highness enjoy boundless blessings and peace!"

"Get up!"

Emperor Yongzheng sat down in a chair, looked up and saw a book placed to the side. He picked it up and looked at it; it was a book of strange and interesting stories.

"What have you been doing in the manor today?" Yongzheng looked at Su Shi in front of him. She was good-looking, pure and elegant, completely different from Guo Shi. They were two different styles.

"Today I was reading in my room, enjoying reading about strange and interesting things, miscellaneous notes, travelogues, and the like."

"Your name is Su Yunyi, which is the meaning of 'All things return to their root' from the Tao Te Ching?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Indeed, your father has high expectations for you."

Yongzheng then chatted with Su Yunyi about books and some allusions to poems.

"Good, it's getting late, let's get settled in," said Yongzheng.

"Yes," Su Yunyi said with a smile.

Su Yunyi stood up and helped Yongzheng change his clothes. After the last undergarment was removed, Su Yunyi boldly wrapped her slender hands around his neck and unconsciously rubbed against him. She was an experienced woman, and she wanted to enjoy herself while Yongzheng was still under fifty. This caused a glint to flash in Yongzheng's eyes and his desire to rise.

Yongzheng supported her slender waist, the thin nightgown revealing her curvaceous figure. Feeling the delicate skin in his hands, he stopped thinking, immediately picked up Su Yunyi, walked to the bed, placed her on the couch, and bent down...

Then everything fell into place naturally...

"Your Highness, it's time to get up." Su Peisheng's voice came from outside the window.

Yongzheng rubbed his temples, saw Su Yunyi hugging him, and smiled. He had stayed up a little late last night.

However, thinking of last night, Yongzheng's eyes darkened. He had never had such a pleasant experience. To be honest, he felt very comfortable, completely different from the women in his harem.

"Keep your voice down, don't wake Su Gege. Wait until we've paid our respects before waking her."

Yongzheng carefully got out of bed, and the people outside quietly came in to help him wash up. The whole room was completely silent.

"Your Highness!" Su Peisheng said after tidying up everything.

Yongzheng quietly left Qijingyuan.

After Yongzheng left, Su Yunyi opened her eyes, showing no sign of sleepiness. She had been awake all along, but simply didn't want to serve him.

"When did Half-Blue arrive?"

"Princess, it's only 3:45 AM, it's still early. Why don't you sleep a little longer, and I'll wake you up when it's time to pay your respects?" Banlan said softly.

"Mmm." Su Yunyi responded. Last night she had used all her strength. A forty-year-old man is indeed a wolf. Her whole body ached terribly. After Banlan left, she quickly asked the system to use the spiritual spring on her, since she still had to pay her respects later.
