If an opponent saw Yang Fan in such a frustrated state, the whole Guanzhong would probably burst into laughter.

When Wu Shun saw Yang Fan caring for his daughter like a treasure, his heart felt as sweet as drinking honey, and he didn't know what his husband was thinking.

If you like children so much, why don’t you want children?

Wu Meiniang looked envious. She hadn't taken any contraceptive measures recently, so why didn't her stomach react? Wu Meiniang was a little anxious without realizing it.

If the two princesses get pregnant first, wouldn't it mean that Wu Meiniang is a hen that can't lay eggs?

Seeing Wu Meiniang's pair of charming phoenix eyes shining with motherly love, Yang Fan joked: "Meiniang, don't worry, my husband will reward you with another big fat boy tonight. Let's have one for a year. You will be too busy in the future."

Hearing Yang Fan's words, Wu Meiniang chuckled and said angrily: "My husband is really one, one a year, do you really think that Meiniang is a pig? My husband is really unformed, and Minyue is still young? Why do you look like this in front of her?

In this case?"

Yang Fan pulled Wu Shun with one hand and Wu Meiniang with the other, laughing and saying: "Haha, Mei Niang will be my pig for the rest of her life. She can't run away even if she wants to. Of course, Shun Niang will also give birth to Min Yue in the future."

A younger brother and sister as companions.”

Seeing Yang Fan abandoning her, Helan Minyue quit and said angrily: "Bad daddy, you only care for your mother and aunt. Minyue won't play with you anymore. Minyue will also be daddy's little piggy!"

Childhood Wuji's words immediately made everyone burst into laughter. The happiness of a family is so simple.

After dinner, Yang Fan, who originally wanted to play a guessing game, was called out by Empress Xiao.

In the main hall, two people sat facing each other.

Looking at Empress Xiao, Yang Fan couldn't help but ask: "Godmother, do you have something to tell me?"

Empress Xiao looked serious and said, "I heard that you are going to Jiangnan after the Lantern Festival, but what are your plans?"

Yang Fan was slightly startled: "His Majesty appointed Haier as the Governor of Jiangnan Province. Even if the Jiangnan nobles are not convinced, do they dare to blatantly defy the imperial order?"

Empress Xiao raised her hand, pointed at Yang Fan and said angrily: "You, you, you are usually clever, but sometimes you are too casual. Isn't this good?"

"Although the Tang Dynasty was slightly different from the former Sui Dynasty, their control over Jiangnan was actually similar."

"When Emperor Yang personally went to Jiangnan, he was unable to win over the hearts of the Jiangnan nobles. Do you think those people will cooperate with you just by relying on Tang Dynasty's orders?"

"Although these Jiangnan nobles don't dare to come openly, they will carry out assassinations and secretly make trouble... there will definitely be no shortage of them. If I'm not careful, my wives will be widowed!"

Yang Fan smiled brightly: "Godmother, it's not that serious, is it?"

"It's not that serious?" Empress Xiao snorted and continued: "In order to control the south of the Yangtze River, how many soldiers have you invested in suppressing bandits in recent years, but you have returned without success?"

"Not to mention far away, Duke Zhang Liang of the State of Yun has been in Jiangnan Road for two years. He has worked very hard to subdue his colleagues and the Shanyue people, wasting people and money, but with little effect."

"The reason for this is that the local gentry cooperated with these Liao and Shanyue people to form the current situation. It can be said that today's Jiangnan is the Jiangnan of the Jiangnan gentry."

"What's more, two of Yun Guogong Zhang Liang's pretenders died at your hands in Tubo. You must be careful that they work together to drive you out of Jiangnan."

Yang Fan looked surprised and a little unbelievable: "The Duke of Yun has a personal grudge against a certain person. He wouldn't be so confused in front of big issues, right?"

Empress Xiao held her forehead and had a headache.

Although this guy is very smart, he doesn't know much about officialdom.

There are no permanent enemies in the officialdom. If everyone thinks so righteously, it will easily capsize in the gutter.

Empress Xiao thought for a moment and sighed: "People's hearts are sinister, so be more careful. Emperor Yang thought the same way back then, so he risked his life... Don't make the same mistake he made!"

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was able to take over the Jiangnan nobles for his own use because he believed in his own skills. Unfortunately, it was a tragedy that fate failed.

Therefore, Empress Xiao once again carefully explained: "This time when we go to Jiangnan, no one from the Jiangnan gentry can be trusted until the situation is opened up. Otherwise, you will have no choice but to run back in disgrace."

Yang Fan was a little depressed: "If no one from the Jiangnan gentry can be used, then I will be alone. How can I open up the situation?"

Hearing Yang Fan's words, Empress Xiao smiled and said: "You can take more people with you from Chang'an. In addition, Emperor Yang also left some shadows in Jiangnan back then. I can help you if I can't protect them all."

"Let Shiyun accompany you when you go to Jiangnan this time. I will give her all the contact information of those people."

After hearing this, Yang Fan finally understood what Empress Xiao meant when she asked him to come. It turned out that she wanted Xiao Shiyun to accompany him.

The Queen Mother must have seen her having more and more women and was deeply afraid that Xiao Shiyun would fall out of favor, so she was so anxious.

However, she was indeed right about one thing. The power of the noble clan was too strong in Jiangnan, and Chaoyang could not get in at all.

Since the Queen Mother is willing to fully support her, Yang Fan will certainly not refuse and readily agrees: "Thank you for your love, Godmother. Everything will be at your discretion."

Although the Sui Dynasty has perished, it would be foolish to dare to underestimate the background of Empress Xiao.

After all, after the death of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Empress Xiao inherited everything. Who would believe that there was no group of forces loyal to the former Sui Dynasty?

The goal was achieved, Empress Xiao said with a smile: "Then let me go down first, go and rest early, and give birth to more fat boys for my godmother."

"Ahem... Godmother, please go to bed early and leave me." Yang Fan coughed twice and left as if running away.
