Yaduo was getting older and her health was deteriorating; she didn't know how many more years she could live, or if she would be able to witness the birth of Yelu Yan and Li Xianyun's child.
Previously, Yaduo had hoped that Yelu Yan would marry soon and had no other desires. Now that Yelu Yan and Li Xianyun were married, she looked forward to them having children soon.
Humans are never truly content.
Yaduo said with a smile, "This old woman knows this saying all too well, but it must never be spoken of outside. Ayan is so fond of Xianxian that he would not tolerate others gossiping."
The maid laughed in response, "This servant understands and cherishes her own life dearly, daring not to speak carelessly."
Yaduo chuckled, "Your boldness is growing, indeed as if you wish no longer to live."
With that said, both of them burst into laughter.
When Yelu Yan returned to the Khan Palace, he heard laughter coming from the main building before he even arrived.
