"Huaijin, it's time to feed Yaoyao, come over quickly."

The dignified and elegant Empress, holding a yellow swaddled baby in her arms, was waving to the seven-year-old Crown Prince beside her.

"This is your future crown princess, so you should raise her yourself."

As the empress spoke, she saw that the little guy had a blank face and didn't move, so she had no choice but to walk over herself.

She bent down slightly and brought the child in her arms close to her son. "Look, isn't she adorable? When she grows up, she will definitely be a stunning beauty."

Ji Wangshu lowered her brows and looked at the little baby in the swaddling clothes.

Her eyes were big and round, with long eyelashes, and her chubby face was lightly pink.

The cute little mouth unconsciously smacked its lips, spitting out a small bubble, which quickly burst.

"Ah~"

Xi Yao opened her mouth toward Ji Wangshu, her two little hands struggling restlessly, trying to reach out and poke the little dumpling's face.

Even though she's only seven years old, she has such a tense face, no expression at all. I really want to pinch her cheeks.

"Huaijin, look! She's smiling at you. Come and hug her. You should raise your own Crown Princess."

As the empress spoke, she stuffed the dumpling in her arms into her son's arms, successfully seeing his expression change.

Ji Wangshu awkwardly held the baby, the overwhelming scent of milk making him freeze in place.

She was so soft and so small; he was afraid he might accidentally hurt her.

"Come, sit here and feed Yao Yao."

The Empress asked him to sit down, took the milk bowl handed to her by a palace maid, and had Ji Wangshu feed him spoonful by spoonful.

There was no other way; the little girl refused to drink the wet nurse's milk, so they had to express the milk and feed her themselves.

Ji Wangshu was quite clumsy at breastfeeding, but she was very patient.

This was the first time he had seen the little dumpling.

The Empress Dowager went to the Imperial Temple to burn incense the day before yesterday, and returned today carrying a child, saying that he is the future Crown Princess.

It is said that it was found on the way to offer incense.

To Ji Wangshu's surprise, his father actually agreed and immediately bestowed upon the girl the title of princess.

My mother is always unreliable, so why did she even agree to my serious father's request?

Ji Wangshu couldn't figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it.

Xi Yao opened her mouth and took spoonful after spoonful of milk, her gaze fixed on his face.

It's really rare that this time he's the one supporting her, hehe.

Then she'll start acting up.

Children have special privileges.

After finishing her milk, Ji Wangshu, following the Empress's instructions, somewhat clumsily patted the milk ball to help it burp.

As he gently patted her, Xi Yao yawned and slowly fell asleep.

Looking at the sleeping baby in her arms, Ji Wangshu looked up at the Empress with a somewhat helpless expression:

"Mother?"

What should we do now?

The Empress smiled gently, "She's asleep, Huaijin. Then take her back to the East Palace. I'll have Liu prepare the things for the child and move them to the East Palace together. From now on, she will be Yaoyao's wet nurse."

After saying that, she reached out and touched Ji Wangshu's head. "Huaijin, you must take good care of Yaoyao. When she comes of age, you two will get married."

Ji Wangshu paused, intending to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

"Your Majesty, I shall take my leave now."

After bowing to the Empress, he carried the swaddled baby and walked steadily outside.

Although Ji Wangshu is only seven years old, he has been practicing martial arts for three years and is quite strong.

As the Empress watched the departing figure, the smile on her face faded, replaced by a hint of sorrow.

"Qingzhu, do you really think Yaoyao can change Huaijin's life of hardship, just as Master Yuantong said?"

Despite being a prince, Ji Wangshu's life was not good.

Shortly after the birth, Abbot Yuantong of the Imperial Temple entered the palace and said that the future monarch would have a life full of hardships.

He was destined to have no children and die young, while the imperial power of the Great Wei Dynasty fell into the hands of others and rapidly declined.

Although Yuantong, a highly respected master, rarely left the imperial temple, he was essentially the national preceptor of the Great Wei Dynasty.

His divinations were extremely accurate.

Otherwise, anyone who dares to speak ill of the crown prince in front of the emperor and empress of a country would certainly lose their head.

"Your Highness, it will surely happen." Qingzhu served hot tea and comforted her carefully, "The Princess is definitely His Highness the Crown Prince's lucky star."

"I hope so."

The empress's sigh lingered in the hall for a long time.

(✧∇✧)

the other side.

Ji Wangshu placed the milk ball in her arms on her own bed and covered her with a blanket.

Despite thinking babies are a troublesome species, he brought one home today.

Maybe it's because she's too cute?

As for his future crown princess, Ji Wangshu took it as her mother joking.

Seeing the person sleeping soundly on the bed, Ji Wangshu got up to read a book.

As the crown prince, his daily schedule was very full.

The Grand Tutor should be waiting for him at this time.

Xi Yao slept soundly, but when she woke up, she tried to sit up but failed.

She then remembered that she was still a baby less than three months old.

"996, are you there? Just say something."

【Squeak~】

"Send me information about this world."

[Okay, host, I'll give it to you right away.]

The 996 work schedule is quite fast.

Xi Yao started looking at the information, unconsciously sucking her fingers.

This is the Great Wei Dynasty. The current emperor ascended the throne with ruthless methods, killing countless brothers.

So, after he ascended the throne, he was poisoned with a slow-acting poison that would cause him to lose his offspring.

At that time, the emperor was unaware of it, and the couple had just gotten married.

Three months after the marriage, the Empress became pregnant.

When the Empress gave birth, Master Yuantong entered the palace and discovered that the Emperor's medication had reached its final stage, making it impossible for him to have children.

At this time, only the Empress had given birth to a son in the harem.

Therefore, Ji Wangshu was destined to be the only crown prince, with no other choice.

Over the years, the emperor has purged many of the rebels left behind by his brothers who seized the throne, but that hasn't changed the fact that he is infertile.

The most terrifying thing was that the emperor had just taken the medicine and had intercourse with the empress. Although they conceived a child, the effects of the medicine still affected the fetus.

Therefore, the emperor and empress knew that Ji Wangshu would have difficulty having children as soon as he was born.

The emperor felt very guilty and tried countless methods, but none of them worked.

Later, Yuantong divined that the Crown Prince was destined to have a Red Phoenix Star, and if he could find it, the problem of having no offspring could be solved.

The Empress recently went to the Imperial Temple to offer incense and found a swaddled baby in the grass, which she then took to the temple.

When Master Yuantong saw this, he could only sigh that it was an arrangement of fate.

This baby girl was the crown prince's only antidote.

It is also the hope for the future of the Great Wei Dynasty.

The Empress wept with joy and named the baby girl Ye Xiyao, giving her the same surname.

"Hehe, so Ji Wangshu and I are indeed a match made in heaven."

After reading this, Xi Yao laughed out loud at the 996 work schedule in her mind.

"In this world, I don't need to work hard; I'm already at the pinnacle of life."

As the Crown Prince's lucky star and the mother of the next emperor, she must be able to walk with impunity.

The emperor and empress would both dote on her.

"996? Then what is my mission in this world?"

[Host, you must become Empress, give birth to the future heir of the Great Wei Dynasty, and change the fate of the powerful figure who died young.]

[Furthermore, we must find the original owner's biological parents, eliminate the usurper, and avenge the original owner.]
