Qiulin hurriedly got up and ran to the palace. He first went to the palace and reported back to Ji Tian Ning about the fire reverse scale. Ji Tian Ning told him to do as he was told.

The Fiery-Scaled Tiger paced back and forth uneasily, unable to understand what Ji Tian Ning was trying to do.

"What exactly is the kitten trying to do? Perhaps I have misunderstood her, and she probably did not intend to harm Begonia and my son. Even if it's someone like Gong Jiu who wants me dead, she would not kill me. It was I who spoke falsely just now. "

They waited all the way until the early morning of the next day before someone reported back to the Flaming Devil Scale. The mother and son of the Begonia Dwarf had already been sent to the harem, where they were arranged to stay in the Blue Moonflower Palace.

With the support of a servant girl, the Begonia anxiously went down the palanquin. Beside her, a servant girl hugged the child and returned to the Imperial Palace. Her heart was filled with unease and worry.

"Madam, this place is Green Luan Palace. The empress arranged it for you. Please enter."

"Where is the empress now? I should first meet the empress."

"The empress had instructed that the empress's body was weak, so she should rest here first. After that, the empress would come visit you and Your Highness."

The Begonia stepped into the Green Lotus Palace, her eyes staring fixedly at the maidservants beside her holding the princes. These maidservants were all arranged by Ji Tian Ning, she did not recognize any of them.

"The empress has arrived."

Upon hearing his voice, the crowd hurriedly rushed forward and kneeled down. The Begonia took the prince from the maid's hands and knelt on the ground uneasily. He sneaked a peek out of the corner of his eye and saw a bright yellow figure, supported by a servant, slowly walk into the Green Lotus Palace.

"Get up."

Everyone stood up, but Qiuxiang didn't dare to stand up. She respectfully kowtowed and said, "Your consort pays her respects to the empress. A thousand years and a thousand years and a thousand years and a thousand years."

"Get up. Someone, help Madam up."

The maidservant by the side helped the Begonia to her feet. Ji Tian Ning looked at the infant in her arms. "This is the prince of the emperor. Can you let me have a look?"

The Begonia's hands trembled slightly as she handed the child over with both her hands. She lowered her head and said respectfully, "How dare I trouble the empress to come here? Chenqie doesn't dare to accept. I should have gone to meet the empress instead. Please forgive me, Empress."

Ji Tian Ning took the child and looked at him carefully, "He really looks like him. Even the stern expression on his face is the same. Begonia, you can stay peacefully in the Green Lotus Palace from now on. If you lack anything, you can just ask the servants to prepare it. "

"Yes, thank you, esteemed empress."

Ji Tian Ning teased the child in her arms for a while before handing the child over to the servant serving Qiuxiang, "In the future, you have to be careful of the madame and the little prince. Be aware that this is the emperor's first prince, you must not be careless."

"Yes, we'll do as the empress commands."

"Esteemed Empress, please take a seat."

Ji Tian Ning shook her head. "It has been hard for you to come all this way. I believe that the emperor will personally visit you in a while. You can leave now. I have something to say to his wife."

After everyone left, Ji Tianning calmly looked at the uneasy Qiuxiang, who knelt on the ground. "Congratulations, esteemed empress, please forgive me. Chenqie never wanted to enter the palace, she just wanted to raise this child. This was all an accident, please forgive me, empress. If the empress allows it, chenqie will ask for nothing else. I beg that chenqie allow chenqie to raise her child. "

"Why must you be so courteous? Who would have thought that you would actually bear his child, and even give birth to it?" It's just that the court has just stabilized, so it's not appropriate to announce this matter to the public. After a few months, my child will be born. Now, why don't you just stay here and recuperate first, so that you can raise your children? "

"Thank you, esteemed empress. I will listen to your commands. This concubine thanks the empress for her great kindness."

"Begonia, you are an understanding person, so I don't need to say too much. In these days, accompany the emperor well, and raise your child. If there is anything, please send someone to report to me. But, you are not allowed to contact anyone outside the palace for a short period of time. Do you understand? "

"Yes, chenqie understands. You must obey the orders of the Empress. You absolutely do not dare to defy her." Your concubine has no other wish and would not dare to ask to accompany the emperor. Your concubine would be extremely grateful if your concubine would allow your concubine to raise a child here. "

The Begonia dropped to the ground with a thump. Now that they had entered the palace, they couldn't help but kowtow, and the fear and dread in their hearts could be imagined.

"You should know that I have never lied to you. You can rest assured that here, I will definitely keep you and your mother safe and sound." There are some things that the Emperor should tell you personally. "

Ji Tian Ning turned around and left the palace. Seeing Ji Tian Ning leave, the Begonia kneeled down and sent him off. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief. What she was worried about the most was that Ji Tian Ning could not tolerate this child.

"The Emperor has arrived."

Just as Ji Tian Ning left, the reverse scale of fire rushed over. Qiuxiang quickly knelt down, "Your concubine greets Your Majesty, I don't know …"

Before she could finish speaking, the Flaming Devil Crystal had already helped her up. Seeing that the servant girl kneeling on the ground was holding the child in her hands, she hurriedly caught it. Only after seeing that the child and the Begonia flower were safe and sound did she finally relax.

"Your majesty, how come it's been a few days since we last met, your majesty has become even thinner?"

Tears welled up in the eyes of the Begonia, looking at her lover before her eyes, gaunt to the point that it made her heart ache. He raised his hand and touched the reverse scale's cheek. Only then did he realize that something wasn't right.

"Your Majesty, please take a seat."

"All of you, go down and pack your things. In the future, you have to be careful around your wife and your highness, don't neglect anything."

"Yes, please be at ease Your Majesty. The empress has already given orders and everything has been arranged. I don't know what else Your Majesty has to say?"

"Go down."

After everyone had retreated, Huo Ni Lin carefully held the child in his arms. He couldn't help but let out a smile as he looked at the child who looked very similar to him. "Begonia, have you been going well?"

"Very good, why did the emperor suddenly think of bringing chenqie and prince to the palace? Just now, the empress had personally come to visit the concubines and princes, telling them to raise their children in peace. Once she gave birth to the prince, she would give them the title of concubines and children. Your Majesty, just what does the empress mean? "

Huo Ni Lin thought for a moment, "Begonia, the matter of you giving me a child is still a secret. The empress had the divine ability of a phoenix soaring across the nine heavens, becoming the mother of the world. However, right now, she had yet to give birth to a prince, so it was not good for her to first give you the mother and son dukedom. For this matter, you will listen to the Empress's arrangements and rest and nurture your son here. There is no need to think too much about it. "

"Chenqie obeys the decree. How is the Emperor's current dragon form?"

"You haven't recovered yet. You need some rest. I will accompany you and your son to rest here."

"You can't!"

"Please forgive me Your Majesty, chenqie is being impolite. Your consort, please think twice about it, don't stay in the palace, it might cause the empress to be unhappy."

"Begonia, there is no one else here, you don't need to be so formal in the future. The empress won't mind. This is also what the empress wants. Let me accompany you to recuperate here, and also accompany my son more. "

"But the emperor is busy with country affairs, and the emperor should spend more time with the empress. The empress is pregnant after all, so it's not appropriate for the emperor to always stay here."

"You don't have to worry, the empress won't be unhappy because of this, and I don't have the energy to deal with the affairs of state either. I need some time to rest." In these few days, I will accompany you and my son, and enjoy a rare period of natural bliss. "

The Begonia was worried, worried that it would cause Ji Tian Ning to be unhappy. Deep in her heart, she hoped that Huo Ni Lin would be by her and her child's side.

The reverse fire scale really did last for more than ten days. It did not ask about the government affairs and stayed to rest quietly in the Green Moonflower Palace.

"Your majesty, the emperor should also go see the empress."

The Begonia was very worried, worried that the reverse scale of fire would continue to stay here and cause discontent with Ji Tian Ning. However, the Fiery-Scaled Beast had other intentions. It wanted to see what attitude that little kitten had towards him, and what sort of attitude it had towards him, that it would always stay at the Green Luan Palace.

To his disappointment, Ji Tian Ning never came. Instead, she sent an imperial physician to treat him every day and sent him many exotic flowers and herbs. The Begonia had once went to meet Ji Tian Ning. Ji Tian Ning told the Begonia to rest peacefully in the Green Lotus Palace and not have to go to meet again. Therefore, it was not appropriate for the Begonia to see Ji Tian Ning again.

"Wah …" "Wow …"

The sound of the child's cry startled the fire spirit. The child looked at the room next to them and began to cry a few times before stopping. There was someone coaxing the child.

"Your majesty, chenqie will go see the child."

The Begonia walked into the rear hall. She didn't want her child to be too far away from her, so she arranged for him to stay in the side room and could go over to visit at any time. As he entered the side room, he saw a bright yellow figure hugging a child. His face was filled with a gentle expression as he teased the child.

"Esteemed Empress, chenqie didn't know that the empress had arrived. I've come far to welcome you. Please forgive me, esteemed empress."

The Begonia hurriedly knelt to the ground, but her gaze did not leave the baby in Ji Tian Ning's arms.

"Get up. I only came to see the child and did not want to alarm you. This child seems more like the emperor."

"Yes, I don't dare to trouble the empress. It's better for chenqie to carry this child."

"Have you named it yet?"

"The emperor bestowed his name Xian. May the empress please give him a nickname."

"This is your child. It's better that you did it yourself, so I won't do it for you."

"It's this child's honor to be given a name by the empress."

Ji Tian Ning shook her head slightly. "Mother should retain this authority. When my child is born, I will give him a name. However, I cannot take over your authority."

"Many thanks, esteemed empress. The emperor is just ahead, isn't the empress going to take a look at the emperor?"

Ji Tian Ning shook her head slightly. "I've already seen the child. Now, I have to leave. The child is very healthy, so I can be at ease. Is there anything that's missing?"

"Many thanks, esteemed empress. Chenqie is not lacking in anything here."

Ji Tian Ning put down the child in her arms and turned around to leave. He didn't notice that behind him, the mysterious and helpless gaze of Huo Ni Lin was following her until she disappeared from the Green Lotus Palace.

"Reporting to the emperor, the empress had this subject send a message to the emperor. If the emperor wishes to ascend to court, or anything he wishes to do, please do as he pleases."

"Cough, cough …"

Huo Ni Lin coughed a few times. "Got it, you can go now."

Seeing that the child was about to be given a full moon, Nanke once again entered the early autumn season. It was just that the autumn of the south wind came a little later, and the weather was still extremely hot.

The Fiery-Scaled Tiger couldn't stand it any longer. It finally suggested to Ji Tian Ning that it wanted to reinstate the council head. Ji Tian Ning agreed and allowed Huo Ni Lin to act as he pleased. Huo Ni Lin bitterly smiled and realized that his time was running out. Now, Ji Tian Ning didn't care what he did.

The engagement between the princess and Qiuyuan had been delayed, using the Emperor as an excuse.

In these past few days, most of the officials had gathered at the palace to protect the king. Even the left and right prime ministers had arrived at the palace to protect the king, and if there was a matter of the kingdom, they would make a decision at the palace.

Now, the implementation of the ten great national policies was beginning to bear fruit. In the harvest season, the fields are full of fruit and crops, and people are happy. The danger of the bandits of the Southern Champion Kingdom was cut off from this, and a rare, peaceful and prosperous world appeared.

The fire reverse scale began to rise again. As he sat on the dragon throne, he sighed with emotion. How much longer could he sit in this position?

The crowd of officials had finished paying their respects and separated into two chambers. Shang Qiuyuan was the first to leave the class and Huo Ni Lin only listened indifferently, not saying much. Only when Shang Qiuyuan had finished reporting did he ask, "According to what your beloved one has seen, how should this matter be dealt with?"

"This official is waiting for the Holy Judgement."

"It has been many days since I have taken care of the affairs of the country. My beloved, please speak frankly."

After Shang Qiuyuan had explained the method to deal with it, Huo Ni Lin's face was calm. "I shall do as my beloved one says."

"Understood."

The officials started to spread the news one by one. Most of them did not say how to handle the situation, and only asked the person reporting them how to deal with it, or gave it to the Prime Minister Shang Qiu and his left and right. Until the end of the morning assembly, Huo Ni Lin did not personally issue an order, which was out of the expectations of the court officials.

"Reporting to the Empress, the Emperor has come to the Empress's side."

"Got it."

Ji Tian Ning slowly walked in the courtyard, looking at the fish and lotus leaves in the water.

"Ning'er, I've come to see you. Since you're not coming to see me, I can only come to see you."

The reverse fire scale moved closer to Ji Tian Ning. Looking at his towering abdomen, it said, "You only have two months before you give birth, so you shouldn't spend too much time moving about."

"Your Majesty, please take a seat. I'm doing very well. A lot of activity is good for the fetus."
