[Ch.92] Motherly Love

Tsubaki lounged on the floor with her robe draping over her shoulder. She lay on her side while rubbing her protruding stomach.

She clicked her tongue, "Nyogo is such a stick in the mud… Giving us this much work."

Nakidori sewed while humming peacefully, "You say that, but you're not doing a thing."

Tsubaki yawned, "I'm pregnant. I get a pass."

Nakidori chuckled, "When Nyogo was pregnant, she was still doing her job taking out traitors and protecting the Emperor."

Tsubaki leaned forward with wide eyes, "Seriously?! She was stuck up even back then?!"

Nakidori giggled mischievously and leaned forward, "She isn't as perfect as she seems. Rumor has it that Kiyomori isn't actually Tadamori's son."

Tsubaki gasped with intrigue, "No! Who's son could he be?!"

"They say he is actually the Emperor's son! I've even seen the Emperor and I think Kiyomori looks very similar to him. The rumor must be true."
