Xiu Yang looked at him intently, then suddenly smiled, the corners of her mouth curving upward in an arc. She lightly stood up and bowed slightly in respect, "Your servant will follow all of the Emperor's arrangements."
Dugu Han nodded in satisfaction, "That's the smart choice."
"Thank you for the praise, Your Majesty."
"The health of the child you're carrying has also been quite stable, it's time for you to show your face outside more."
Xiu Yang lifted her gaze, looking at the man before her in astonishment. Her child was long gone. Did the Emperor mean...?
"Indeed, just as you are thinking. All those who know of your miscarriage will be made to disappear by me."
"What would you have your servant do, Your Majesty?"
"It's very simple. You are my favored concubine. Just safely deliver the Prince in your womb."
"...Yes, Your Majesty."
Dugu Han gave her an approving glance and left with satisfaction.
