The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1532: Chapter 1527: The Importance of Qin Muyan’s Descendants

He walked her back to her room, and even bowed his head to sniff at her neck.

The milky sweet scent was still there, and it seemed even more enticing.

Qin Muyan pressed his forehead against hers, "Your Highness will sleep here tonight."

Rong Yun nodded, "Okay."

Her soft nasal voice unintentionally filled the air with an ambiguous atmosphere.

Qin Muyan spent the night beside her, feeling somewhat restless. Rong Yun turned several times and touched him, stirring his thoughts.

But as dawn broke, seeing the adorable, naive look on her sleeping face, he returned to his usual self.

He tucked her in properly, touched her forehead, and then left for the morning court.

Several months after Qin Muyan had moved out, news that he had returned to Rong Yun’s residence was something Mrs. Yan would not miss the chance to spread, and she immediately had people handle it.

The recent news from outside had her worried about Rong Yun’s status in the residence.

After the morning court, Qin Muyan was kept in the palace to dine by Qin Rulie.

In the Empress Dowager’s palace, upon Qin Muyan’s arrival, Qin Ge suddenly asked, catching him off guard, "Muyan, have you and the Princess consummated the marriage?"

Qin Muyan subconsciously shook his head, "Not yet, she is still young, not yet of age, your son..."

He was speaking when he saw the imperial grandmother and the empress inside the hall and immediately frowned, "Mother, you need not worry about the affairs in my house, the Princess is well."

"Her Majesty and I also think there’s no rush given the short time," the Empress Dowager’s voice was filled with tenderness, she waved at Qin Muyan, "Muyan, come to me."

Qin Muyan stepped forward, and the empress made room for him, passing the Empress Dowager’s medicinal soup to him.

While Qin Muyan tended to the medicinal soup, the Empress Dowager asked him, "How have you been getting along with that young girl recently? The empress told me, although you’ve been sleeping separately for a few months, you stayed with her again last night."

The Empress Dowager’s kindly and gentle demeanor, full of loving concern, felt incredibly warm.

Qin Muyan spoke softly, "She’s doing well. Your grandchild and her slept separately merely because of the summer heat, worrying she wouldn’t sleep well. I really like her."

"That’s good."

The Empress Dowager’s eyes brightened, her smiling face and wrinkles looking quite adorable, "I knew that young girl would definitely win your favor. Young but not lacking in innocence and charm, and her gentle nature is endearing. She is still young, there is no need to rush the matter of children."

"Mhm." Qin Muyan respectfully wiped the Empress Dowager’s mouth and offered some preserved fruit.

However, Qin Ge quietly said, "Mother, it’s time we start worrying about Muyan’s heirs. I’ve already selected a secondary consort and concubines for him."

She turned to look at Qin Muyan, "Everyone is already in the palace, come and make your selection later."

"Mother, why the rush to choose secondary consorts and concubines? Your son does not need them."

Qin Muyan’s brow furrowed immediately, his face tightened, and his features became somewhat sharp.

Qin Rulie spoke solemnly, "Mu Yan, your aunt has good intentions, come with me and take a look."

Once Qin Rulie had spoken, Qin Muyan did not outright refuse. Instead, after bidding farewell to the Empress Dowager, he went to the Empress’s Zhaoren Palace.

He did not rush to see the women he was meant to choose from but instead asked Qin Rulie, "Imperial Brother, why are you suddenly anxious about the matter of children? Has something happened in court?"

Recently, he had not noticed anything unusual in court.

Qin Rulie’s tone was heavy, "There is a matter. Yesterday, I received a report that King Zhao has taken it upon himself to decide to re-enlist the army. He had already started implementing it in Huihu City. But by chance, Old Duke Li passed by Huihu City, learned of this and quickly went to stop it, and even reprimanded King Zhao, disbanded the new troops, and wrote this secret letter to inform me. Right now, the old Duke is still in Huihu City waiting for my decision."

Qin Muyan was immediately furious. "Uncle King Zhao is simply outrageous! He is the only uncle among the kings who still holds significant military power. Our father entrusted him with such military authority, yet he dares to try to establish power on his own!"

Qin Muyan immediately knelt down and asked for orders, "If Uncle King Zhao has a rebellious intent, your subject brother is willing to lead troops to attack immediately and will not let corrupt and treacherous officials threaten the Great Wei’s Realm!"

"Mu Yan, rise."

Qin Rulie helped him up, "No need to be so agitated. Uncle King Zhao might have the intention now, but he doesn’t have the courage. Old Duke Li is his mentor, a veteran official through three dynasties. He fears Old Duke Li more than he fears me. With Old Duke Li there, he can’t stir up trouble, but it’s because of a reason related to me."

Speaking of this, Qin Rulie’s expression turned somewhat grim. "I probably won’t have children in this lifetime. You are my younger brother, and you are also getting older. It has been a year since you married and still have no children. No wonder some people think the Imperial family is dwindling."

"But that’s no excuse for their wild ambitions!" Qin Muyan stared at Qin Rulie, "What does Imperial Brother plan to do with Uncle King Zhao?"

Qin Rulie held the secret letter in his hand. "I plan to give him a good scare and bring his Crown Prince to the palace to ’treat’ him properly."

Qin Muyan nodded, "This method is too lenient."

If it were him, Qin Muyan would directly send someone to Huihu City, either capture King Zhao and bring him to the capital or directly confiscate his commander’s seal and troops, stripping him of any power to cause trouble!

Qin Rulie knew Qin Muyan had a fierce temperament and couldn’t tolerate flaws, but their Uncle King Zhao had won their father’s trust when he was reigning and managed to hold a hundred thousand troops until now. Demanding him to surrender military power now is by no means easy; one careless move could lead to infighting, and the ones to suffer would still be the common people.

Such matters, naturally, he would avoid if possible.

He told Qin Muyan that Old Duke Li was in Huihu City and with his prestige, King Zhao wouldn’t dare to act rashly, otherwise, if he raised troops without cause, he would be cursed by the world, leaving an eternal infamy!

That is something he wouldn’t dare to mess up with.

What they could do now was to appease Old Duke Li, ask him to help more in Huihu City, and gather detailed information about King Zhao.

As Qin Rulie and Qin Muyan walked and talked, "Old Duke Li’s legitimate granddaughter, Li Yunshu, is beautiful and dignified, and having grown up playing with you all, she is quite fond of you. Now she has turned eighteen and is still unmarried, waiting for you. If you could take her as a secondary consort, it would comfort the Duke’s household greatly, Old Duke Li would be grateful, and marrying into Old Duke Li’s family, you will gain more of his support in the future."

Qin Muyan paused, a vague figure of a woman surfaced in his mind. He did remember Li Yunshu, but he had been away for many years and had only had Su Yingxue in his heart before. His impression of her was not deep, and he could barely recall her features.
