Seeing Jin Man looking fatigued, Li Yuanyuan stood up and said, "You should rest a bit. It's late and I'm about to leave. If anything comes up, have Juxiang inform me. Thankfully, the Princess Consort holds me in good regard, my words carry some weight in the East Palace."
Jin Man looked at her enviously, "You have been with the Crown Prince for a long time, your relationship is naturally different from others."
Li Yuanyuan smiled gracefully and did not say more.
As she watched Li Yuanyuan step lightly towards the doorway, Jin Man suddenly asked, "You've been with the Crown Prince for many years, why haven't you had any children?"
Li Yuanyuan paused, turned back, smiled, and said, "Having or not having children, it doesn't really matter."
"How can it not matter?" Jin Man was astounded, "The Crown Prince will become the ruler of a nation in the future. Isn't continuing his lineage a major matter?"
"It is a major matter, but we have the Princess Consort, don't we?"
