After the crowd dispersed, Ren Baqian held the empress's hand and walked around the palace.
Dayao at night was much more comfortable than during the day. After the sun fell to the horizon, the temperature began to drop, and a cool breeze blew, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"You have a lot of things to do!" The empress's voice was faint and a little emotional.
"Capable people do more work!" Ren Baqian chuckled.
"But I don't seem to have anything to do …"
"Those who work hard govern others, and those who work hard govern others." Ren Baqian immediately changed his tune.
"Are you a laborer?" The empress asked with a smile on her face.
"Definitely!"
"You just said that capable people do more work."
"I'm a capable person among the workers!" Ren Baqian laughed. This wasn't a problem at all!
However, Ren Baqian did have a lot of things to do now.
The academy couldn't be delayed, and he had to choose the breakthrough point in science and technology. After all, according to Dayao's current level, it would take at least a few decades of accumulation to fully promote scientific and technological progress. Therefore, it could only be promoted by human intervention.
In addition, he had to pay attention to the situation in the Yun Nation, find ways to make money to fill the national treasury, prepare for the world martial arts competition, and plan for the new city. In the future, he would have to pay attention to the experts in the world.
In fact, if the tasks were spread out, it wouldn't be a lot. However, there was no one who could be of great use.
The big shots in the imperial court ran faster than the other when they were asked to chop people with axes.
They hadn't lost in fighting, and they hadn't lost in chopping … either.
If they were asked to do these messy things, they had to be prepared to be screwed up by them.
Ren Baqian had to take care of things first and then slowly spread them out.
The two of them chatted for a while and stopped talking as they enjoyed the company around them.
After a long time, the empress sighed slightly and said, "You have worked hard."
How could she not know about the current situation?
However, there was really no one available for these things.
Ren Baqian squeezed her palm. "It's nothing. I'm also very curious about that land! Besides, my lifespan can be extended after breaking through. With my talent, I was lucky to reach the Spirit Wheel level, and it's very difficult to reach a higher level.
When I get there, it will be easier for me to break through, and I can accompany Your Majesty more. "
The two of them circled around and returned to the temporary palace.
"Your Majesty, let's rest!" Ren Baqian said as he put his arm around the empress's waist.
"Aren't you going to sleep in the outer room?" The empress squinted her eyes and looked at him.
"My kidneys aren't weak anymore … I think we can continue to make babies." Ren Baqian laughed. He had no choice as the empress was too alluring. If he were to sleep with her on the same bed, he was afraid that his old waist wouldn't be able to take it.
"I'm already pregnant with a child." The empress took off her red veil and hung it on the rack.
"Huh?" Ren Baqian's eyes widened.
This was only one time … Fine, it was one big time, and there were many small times in between. But how could it be so fast? And you already know that in just a few days?
"Of course, I know my body well." The empress looked a little shy. "When I was on Earth, I already knew that if I wanted to conceive a child, I had to control ovulation. I could still do this little trick, and at that time, I also borrowed the effect of the first dual cultivation."
Ren Baqian was dumbstruck. He had never heard that one could master such a technique after practicing!
This had never been written in any of the Xianxia or Xuanhuan novels!
Besides, didn't the aboriginals have difficulty reproducing?
"In terms of self-control, there aren't many people in this world who can compare to me," the empress casually said after hearing Ren Baqian's question.
Ren Baqian felt that the empress was indeed a cheat.
Not only was his cultivation speed fast, his cultivation base was also rising every day. Apart from watching television dramas and drinking, his control over his body was also far superior to others. If those who trained their bodies every day were to find out about this, they would probably want to die.
His mind was in a mess like a herd of wild horses. After a while, he came back to his senses. The empress was pregnant?
He was going to be a father?
Oh my god, I wasn't even mentally prepared for this!
How … How could he be a father?
How could it be so fast? He had just gotten married and hadn't brushed his teeth yet!
Ren Baqian lay on the bed in a daze. He slowly calmed down as he smelled the delicate fragrance of the empress.
If she was pregnant, then so be it. He was going to be a father … He originally felt that this was a distant matter, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
As for how to raise the child … He didn't need to worry about this.
Wouldn't it take at least nine or ten months for a child to be born? He should be able to prepare after such a long period of time.
Well, wasn't it nine months for the aboriginals to give birth? He had to ask tomorrow.
Not long after, the empress grabbed Ren Baqian's mischievous hand. "What are you doing?"
"I'm just touching …"
…
"Aren't you just touching?"
"I'm just rubbing …"
…
Creak, creak, creak. Not long after, the wooden couch began to creak, and it became more and more intense.
"Hey, be gentle, Your Majesty!"
"You're still calling me Your Majesty?"
"It's better to call me Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian groaned. Compared to a name, he preferred to call her Your Majesty. The sense of accomplishment of hugging the monarch of a nation was overflowing.
"Aren't you the wildest horse?"
Boom.
The couch collapsed again.
The red curtain was like a ball of flame, rolling in the room.
…
"Isn't Her Majesty going to court again?" Many officials who were waiting in front of the palace heard the news from Xin Zhe and whispered to each other.
In particular, those who entered the palace yesterday wanted to bring up some things in court today, but didn't expect to hear this news.
"Where is Her Majesty?" Hong Wu asked with a frown.
"Get lost!" Xin Zhe's answer was full of realism, and these three words described the scene vividly. After finishing her sentence, she cupped her hands at everyone and turned to return to the palace.
Only the crowd was left with a blank look on their faces.
After all, they didn't know what "getting lost" meant.
That night, there was a rumble in the palace.
Qing Yuan and Hong Luan rushed over to take a look and were on the verge of tears. Her Majesty's temporary resting place had collapsed again … Why was it faster than the previous time?
"Where's Her Majesty?"
"Her Majesty has gone to Changqing Palace …" Xin Zhe appeared beside them and said faintly.
Another day passed. Many officials stood in front of the palace and waited for the news that the empress wouldn't be attending court today.
Shi Qing's expression changed for a long time before he finally laughed bitterly.
After a day of not having morning court, everyone roughly understood what was going on. This was already the second time this had happened.
"Why do I feel that … Zhao Prince Consort is harming the nation!" Tong Zhenye smacked his lips.
The surroundings were instantly cleared.
Although he wasn't the only one who had this thought, everyone immediately distanced themselves from him.
That night, following the sound of collapse, Xin Zhe stood in front of the ruins of Changqing Palace. Her eyes flickered with uncertainty, and she had a strange expression on her face.
It was as if she was curious.
A red shadow drilled into an empty palace and wriggled on the ground like a red cocoon.
"We can't stay in the palace anymore. Two of the palaces have collapsed. What should we do?" Ren Baqian panted heavily.
