Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338: The Emperor Is Pregnant 53
Su Yan stared at the document, her expression somewhat dazed.
Her hand trembled slightly as she wrote.
It’s nothing really.
She just slept too late last night, and had to get up early for the morning court today.
Tired.
Situ Xiu stood up from the chair beside her.
Sat down on the Dragon Chair.
Right next to Su Yan.
He lowered his head, his voice soft and slow.
"Is Your Majesty tired?"
Su Yan nodded.
"Hmm."
He reached out, his well-defined hand resting on Su Yan’s waist.
Rubbing her waist gently.
He smiled.
"Perhaps, Your Majesty was exhausted yesterday."
Su Yan regained her focus.
Then shook her head.
"No."
"Oh?"
"I’m tired every day."
Su Yan felt like she was being drained.
After Situ Xiu heard this, he hugged Su Yan and laughed.
"Is Your Majesty praising me?"
Su Yan was terribly tired.
At some point, the brush in her hand was taken away.
Then, she leaned against him and fell asleep.
Situ Xiu waited for a long while, but didn’t hear the person in his arms speak.
He lowered his head and saw Su Yan asleep.
He smiled, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead.
He adjusted her into a comfortable position in his arms.
Looking at the stacks of documents beside him.
He reached out and picked up one.
Opened it.
The Empress takes a break, the husband rises.
With one hand holding the Empress, the other hand fluently approving the documents.
Su Yan was deeply asleep.
Completely at his mercy.
The realm is peaceful nowadays.
The floods in the southern region have been resolved.
No battles at the border.
The people are happy.
Most of the documents are trivial matters that change daily.
More often than not, they criticize the husband’s demonic influence.
Everyone is pondering how to make the Empress dismiss the husband.
The leader among them is from the Duke Ning Mansion.
Situ Xiu felt that some of the words in the documents made sense.
For instance, how the Empress is overworked.
Every day with documents in the Imperial Study Room.
Where is the time to accompany him?
Thus, our husband is dissatisfied.
Thinking about how to divert the Empress’s attention entirely to himself.
He lowered his head, whispered in Su Yan’s ear, his voice low.
"Empress."
Su Yan opened her eyes.
Her eyes were open, but her expression was still a bit dazed.
"Hmm."
She blinked, appearing as if she was listening intently.
He continued.
"The Empress works tirelessly day and night; this can’t continue."
Su Yan nodded again.
"Hmm."
He smirked.
"Why not find a reason for the Empress to accompany me every day?"
"What reason?"
"Continuing the dynasty’s lineage for Tiansheng Country is essential."
Su Yan looked up.
Situ Xiu couldn’t help but lower his head and kiss her as she appeared so serious.
Then asked.
"What does the Empress think?"
"I’m not pregnant."
"With Your Majesty working so hard, where’s the time to get pregnant?"
With some idle time, you might conceive."
Su Yan nodded.
"Hmm."
He seemed very reasonable.
Seeing how obedient she was.
He hugged her.
"Is Your Majesty tired?"
"Tired."
"Your Majesty can continue to sleep."
"The documents are not finished."
"I will help Your Majesty with them."
"Okay."
Su Yan responded and fell asleep again.
The next morning.
During court.
All the officials gathered.
Waited for an hour, but the Empress didn’t come.
The officials were furious.
Discussed animatedly.
Of course, the Empress as the ruler of a country is naturally right.
The one in error is naturally the Demon Queen causing turmoil in the harem.
