More than eight months later, she gave birth to the only baby girl among the three of them.

Dugu Ling searched almost the entire library before finally finding a satisfactory name—Dugu Caiwei.

Picking ferns, picking ferns, the ferns are so tender.

She will be a carefree little sweetheart, a pampered princess who grows up in luxury, but she is neither Chu Yuan nor Dugu Yue. She will not be given any mission or responsibility; she is simply herself.

No one should even think about the word "marriage alliance," otherwise, given Dugu Jue's temper, even those who don't want to fight might be tempted to annihilate these petty villains!

Caiwei has five older brothers.

Crown Prince Dugu Chang – the composed eldest brother.

The Wise Prince Dugu Ai – the bookish second brother.

King Mu, Dugu Qin – the quiet third brother.

Prince Ping, Dugu Yu – the fourth brother, a martial arts master.

There was also the King of England, Dugu Bo, who was two years older than her—the mischievous fifth brother.

The older brothers treated their little sister like a flower in a greenhouse. From the first light of dawn, they never forgot to look after her. No matter how mischievous the little guys were outside, they would always be model older brothers in front of their sister.

They might kiss, hug, or lift her up high; they might be sweet-talking; or they might be good with their hands, making all sorts of little gadgets for their younger sister.

In short, pamper them as much as possible.

Caiwei is also a gentle and sweet girl, which meets her father's expectations for a sweet and gentle daughter.

But this only applies to before the age of 5. After the age of 5, someone dressed the little girl in boys' clothes and took her out for a stroll. From then on, she went wild and uncontrollably.

She was even more boyish than five boys. If it weren't for the fact that her features were seven or eight parts inherited from Chu Yuan, making it easy to tell that she was a girl, she probably would have caused a lot of trouble.

She captivated the young ladies of all the civil and military officials, who were so infatuated with her that they fought each other for her.

When the country is peaceful and prosperous, what Chu Yuan and his wife worry about most is their daughter.

Once, Ji Yunyou and Dugu Ran went on a diplomatic mission to Huaxu together.

They are now inseparable and are openly a couple!

Because Ji Yun was too lazy, she left most of the government affairs to Dugu Ran. Many ministers in the court had some complaints, but Dugu Ran did a good job. Gradually, there were fewer dissenting voices. They only hoped that the Empress and the Emperor Consort could have children soon and have more offspring so that they could choose a qualified child to be the Crown Prince.

Whether it was because the two of them didn't want to have children, or because Dugu Ran inherited the Dugu family's fate of being widowed and childless, they remained childless for many years.

Until the envoy Huaxu arrived and bumped into Caiwei, who was riding out of the city intending to go on a wild ride.

Ji Yunyou was already quite skilled in martial arts, so she immediately offered her help and rescued the little devil.

This rescue was remarkable. Caiwei took a great liking to her cousin who had come from so far away, and when the couple was about to leave, she insisted on going with them to Ji Yun's place.

Chu Yuan and Dugu Ling/Dugu Jue failed to stop her, so they had to let their fourth son, who was skilled in martial arts, accompany her.

As a result, the Dugu family's precious daughter was successfully snatched up by Ji Yun, an unknown little pig!

Dugu Ling almost died of anger.

He personally went to Ji Yun and brought the person back, but not long after, the nameless little pig also caught up with them.

Dugu Ling then posed a difficult question to him: "Alright, if you can become the top scholar in our Huaxu, I will allow you to marry the princess."

The other party's ancestors for three generations were a family of military merit. They were originally meant to wield a sword, but they insisted on making him wield a pen.

Isn't this deliberately trying to discourage people from trying?

To everyone's surprise, after three years of hard study, Sima Yu actually passed the exam.

On the day of the palace examination, both Dugu Ling and Dugu Jue held back and restrained themselves, preventing this scoundrel from getting bloodied!

Ji Yunyou and her husband still had no children. After thinking it over, they adopted Sima Yu, who had lost both his parents at a young age, as their adopted son, and planned to pass the throne to him after their deaths.

In this way, Caiwei became the empress, just as the saying goes, "the good stuff should not go to outsiders."

At that time, Chu Yuan was already thirty-five years old.

Even her youngest daughter had gotten married, and she felt it was time for her to leave.

Since she couldn't bring herself to kill Dugu Ling/Dugu Jue, she had no choice but to die herself!

After purchasing a "terminally ill" item from the system and taking it, Chu Yuan's health began to deteriorate. She didn't experience any pain or itching, but she was prone to habitual drowsiness.

At first, I only slept for one or two hours a day, then gradually two or three hours... four or five hours, and after half a year, I was awake for about half an hour a day.

Dugu Ling/Dugu Jue almost demolished the Imperial Hospital, but they couldn't find the reason. Chu Yuan woke up several times and saw the man who had become taller and more powerful over the years, guarding her bedside, holding her hand, and her eyes were wet with tears in her half-asleep state.

She felt heartache and guilt...

But she had no choice; otherwise, the mission would be deemed a failure.

Gradually, the children accepted the fact that she was about to leave, and the man seemed to accept it as well.

He passed the throne to the twenty-year-old crown prince, while he stayed by Chu Yuan's side day and night, combing her hair and applying makeup. Without Chu Yuan's knowledge, he had already made her look beautiful.

Aside from being in a deep sleep, Chu Yuan felt no discomfort.

She became known as "Sleeping Beauty" among men.

The man was initially agitated and angry, but after accepting it, he became peaceful and indifferent.

He did the same thing every day without looking at or listening to any other news. Later, he felt it was not worth it for Chu Yuan to spend her last days in this spiritually barren palace, so he found a secluded paradise outside the palace and moved Chu Yuan there.

The small waterside pavilion is surrounded by lotus ponds in front and green mountains and cloud-capped peaks behind, making it a place with excellent feng shui.

That day, Chu Yuan woke up in high spirits.
