The news of Empress Qin Mengyao's birth of a dragon son spread all over the world at a very fast speed.

Although Li Mu has been cultivating in the Land of Nine Secluded Places, he occasionally goes to Peach Blossom Island to see the little drunkards, dolls, and crow brothers, or goes to Nanke to see Han Qingqian, Yan Hanyu and others, so he also learned about it soon after.

He even silently calculated the time to confirm that this dragon was not his own.

"What was I thinking?" Li Mu shook his head, quickly put this matter in his mind, and continued to concentrate on cultivation.

In the land of the Nine Secluded Places, the Nine Babies and the Black Dog Demon Beasts are also practicing silently, accumulating strength, and waiting to overthrow Li Mu together in the future.

And the zodiac is the opposite of them.

It finds a very remote corner and starts digging holes in it!

It plans to open another entrance outside the crack in the ground, so that it can avoid Li Mu and the mysterious demon beast and enter and exit this place safely!

It took nearly half a month for the Ying Zodiac to finally make a passage that could go deep into the magma sea.

This passage is only two meters in circumference and leads from the lava sea to the surface.

When the zodiac walked out of the surface, he found that this place was no longer a Hengduan Mountains, but a low jungle.

"Nanzhao, it's actually Nanzhao?" Ying Zodiac flew to a high place to look at the nearby terrain, and was quite surprised: "Could it be that Nanzhao has a hot climate, is it because of the magma sea below?" ”

Immediately, he smiled stiffly and said, "In this way, it is convenient for the deity to do things!" ”

Then he turned around and went deep into the passage, re-entering the Nine Secluded Lands under the magma sea, and began to absorb the fragments of Tiangang Qi in the purple red rock wall.

A few days later.

A black shadow came to this low jungle like a ghost, and it was the mysterious black-robed man.

As soon as he arrived, he set up a large array nearby to isolate the place.

Then he waited there.

About half a month later, a scorching breath suddenly came out of the bottomless passage, and it was the Ying Zodiac that was filled with a piece of Tiangang Qi and flew up from the magma sea.

After soaking in the land of nine secluded places for more than half a month, the Ying Zodiac not only inhaled a piece of Tiangang qi, but also inhaled a large amount of hot qi, and at this time, its dry body has become more and more terrifying!

The black-robed man looked at this clone with satisfaction, and then stepped forward and put one hand on the head of the Ying Zodiac Zodiac, and ingested the Tiangang Qi in its body into his body!

Afterwards, the Ying zodiac immediately flew into the passage and went to the land of the Nine Secluded Heavens to continue to absorb Tiangang Qi!

And the black-robed man naturally refined Tiangang Qi and began to break through the realm!

……

Time passes.

Daqian Dijing.

On a flat moonlit night, Ling Shishi, the princess of Chu, was secretly summoned into the Fengming Hall of the palace again, and the queen even sent Mei Lan and Zhuju away, and Ling Shishi and Ling Shishi were brought to the next morning in the warm pavilion.

Within a few days, Qin Mengyao vaguely revealed to the major families that the deep palace was cold and lonely, and in order to let the prince grow up happily, three baby girls were specially recruited to be raised by the prince's side as the prince's companions!

Not long after, the Qin and Ying families each gave out a baby girl, and then Ling Shishi also 'tributed' a baby girl to the palace, whose name was Xiaozhuzi.

Fengming Palace.

Next to Autumn Lake.

Zhu'er hugged the newly breastfed prince for a walk, two big eyes were nervous, and curious staring at the baby in her arms, from time to time, she also looked left and right, as if she was afraid that someone would jump out to rob the prince, that cautious appearance, like holding a rare treasure in her arms!

Youlan and Leng Mei followed beside them, and they each held a baby girl in their arms, these two baby girls came from the two families of Qin and Ying, and they would be raised by the prince's side in the future.

Xiao Ju was empty-handed, yawning and following behind, and complaining with a snort: "Why do you all have children to hold, but I don't?" ”

"Don't rob my prince!" Zhu'er's heart tightened, and she hurriedly hugged the prince tightly like a calf, and her two big eyes glared at Xiao Ju viciously: "Xiao Ju, stay away from me, don't infect the prince with your drowsiness!" ”

"I want it, I want it!" Xiao Ju clamored to get up, and Zhu'er hurriedly avoided her.

Leng Mei smiled beside her: "Don't you fight, isn't there a baby girl named Xiaozhuzi?" ”

"Little Bamboo's name sounds like my child!" Zhu'er was ashamed to begin to recognize his relatives.

Xiao Ju immediately retorted: "The little bamboo was sent by Princess Chu, it must be a child of the Ling family!" ”

"Unlikely! Princess Chu had already broken with the Ling family, how could she send the children of the Ling family into the palace? Leng Mei shook her head.

"Could it be Princess Chu...... Yes! I know! Zhu'er seemed to think of something, her eyes widened, and she said, "It must be the daughter of Li Mu and Princess Chu!" ”

Leng Mei frowned: "Impossible!" Princess Chu is cold and peerless, ice clear and jade, even if she is in love with Li Mu, it is impossible to give birth to an illegitimate daughter, anyway, I don't believe it! ”

The three of them chattered, and finally looked at Youlan, who had been silent.

"Youlan, what do you think?"

"Whose daughter do you think Little Bamboo is?"

In the face of the inquiries of several women, Youlan touched the glutinous head of the baby girl in her arms and said with a smile: "No matter whose daughter Xiaozhuzi is, but the mother must really like Xiaozhuzi." ”

Zhu'er, Leng Mei and Xiaoju were all stunned.

Yes, Niangniang asked Zhu'er to hold the prince, and let Youlan and Leng Mei hold the two baby girls, but Xiaozhuzi was held by Niangniang herself from time to time.

Later, they thought of another thing, the three babies, including the prince, were all fed by the nurse in the palace, and Xiaozhuzi ...... I've never eaten a nurse's milk!

In other words, what the little bamboo eats is......

Several people looked at each other, and there was a feeling that the little bamboo was the mother's own child.

But this is definitely impossible, after all, the prince was born under their noses, and Xiaozhuzi was obviously only born for a few days!

"Princess Chu has helped Niangniang several times, and Niangniang Xu loves the house and Wu, so she is willing to take care of Xiaozhu herself." Youlan said with a smile.

"Yes, it must be so, the mother must be repaying the favor!" When Zhu'er heard Youlan say this, she immediately believed it.

"It's just a little bit of a snubbing of the prince." Leng Mei sighed.

Xiao Ju yawned and stepped forward: "Zhu'er, you've hugged the prince for a long time, it's my turn, let me hug it!" ”

"Don't give it, you go away, sleepy bug!" Zhu'er was unwilling, so she pushed Xiaoju with her buttocks, and ran away with the prince in her arms.

Xiaoju was willing to do so, and hurriedly chased after her.

The four girls were noisy next to the Autumn Lake, and on the warm pavilion not far away, Qin Mengyao retracted her gaze, looked down at the little baby girl sleeping in her arms, and couldn't help but show a gentle smile on her beautiful face: "Little bamboo~"

"Bah~" Xiao Zhuzi seemed to be woken up, and screamed twice unhappily, and the two glutinous little hands stretched out with teeth and claws.

Qin Mengyao put her index finger in the palm of her hand, and the little bamboo immediately grabbed it firmly, babbling and screaming, and kicking her legs from time to time.

When Qin Mengyao saw it, the smile on her face became even stronger.

But in the depths of her eyes, there is a trace of worry, which cannot be eliminated!
