When Emperor Mingde finished reading the whole book, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

No one knew that the reason why none of the three thousand beauties in his harem could conceive was actually because of him.

Ever since Queen Lin's accident, the Lin family had the audacity to give him a sterilizing drug.

If it weren't for the late queen, he would have sentenced their entire family to death long ago. How could he have allowed them to live so freely in Xiaoyao City?

Giving the emperor a sterilizing drug is a greater crime than harming the royal heir.

So when Cheng Zeli asked him to forgive the Lin family, he refused without a second thought.

Since ancient times, those in power have been most afraid of external relatives interfering in politics.

Although the Lin family had to do this in order to pave the way for the prince, their original intention was to preserve their own interests.

Emperor Mingde did not dare to take the risk of keeping them in the court, and only agreed to allow Lin Shiyan to take the imperial examination. As for how far he could go, it depended on his own ability.

Since then, he has hated poison.

Now, after reading this book, I realize the seriousness of this poison.

He didn't know whether his great-grandmother's purpose in poisoning the palace concubine was simply because of her greed for power, or whether it was instructed by the Northern Desert Kingdom.

If the Northern Desert Kingdom intended to do this, then it is obvious that they succeeded.

Perhaps it is precisely because the Dayan royal family has Beimo blood that the relationship between the two countries is relatively harmonious compared to other countries.

Although there are occasional frictions, fortunately they are not serious.

But if this poison is allowed to spread, the consequences will be disastrous.

Therefore, it is urgent to crack the poison and find an antidote.

Emperor Mingde immediately ordered them to find the source of the poison, and asked Jiang Delu to notify Concubine Xue and ask her to thoroughly investigate the harem to see who had hidden the poison.

Soon they found the origin of the old woman from the Shangguan family in the records of the previous dynasty, and it turned out that she had been released from the palace.

It turned out that after Concubine Li, every dynasty and generation would send a princess from Beimo to Dayan to be a concubine.

This old woman from the Shangguan family was originally a personal maid brought from the Northern Desert by a concubine of the previous dynasty. Later, her master was defeated in a palace fight.

Died in a fire. Although she survived, her face was burned.

It should have been given to other concubines, but they all disliked her, so she was released from the palace.

Later, somehow, I ended up going to Shangguan's house.

This is incredible. Looking through the historical records of various dynasties, there are many palace concubines who died of dystocia due to the fetus being too big or in the wrong position.

What seemed like a common occurrence at the time now seemed to them to be full of flaws.

Not to say 100%, but at least 80% of the difficult births involve Princess Beimo.

These innocent women who lost their lives all had one thing in common during their lifetime, that is, they were good friends with Princess Beimo and had close contacts with her.

Over four dynasties, dozens of innocent lives were casually ignored.

However, those murderers unscrupulously decided the heirs of the Dayan royal family.

When Emperor Mingde heard the news, he was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the Nishang Palace.

There lived Princess Beimo, Concubine Lian, one of his most beloved concubines.

Not only is she stunningly beautiful, but her every move is also full of charm.

Her eyes are filled with spring water, her mouth is like cinnabar, her waist is slender and her dance is graceful.

I believe there are very few men who would not like this kind of beauty.

She is so beautiful, but she doesn't fight or compete. She is quiet and peaceful, like a lotus flower that grows out of the mud without being stained, blooming quietly.

Although Emperor Mingde was not a romantic person, he would visit her palace every few days.

If he didn't go for a few days, he would feel like he was scratched by a cat, making him restless.

Soon, Lin Fei brought the Imperial Guards and surrounded the entire Nishang Palace.

Concubine Lian had a weary look on her face as she let the maid beside her feel her pulse.

"A long and stringy pulse is a sign of stagnant Qi and depressed emotions.

Madam, your menstrual period has not come yet because of your emotional distress and stagnation, not because you are pregnant."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Lian, who was originally lazy, suddenly became gloomy.

"Snapped!"

The teacups and teapot on the table were swept to the ground by her in an instant.

Then she slapped the maid hard and said angrily, "Useless thing, what use is there for me to have you? For three years, there has been no movement in my belly.

My royal brother has written to me several times to urge me to do so. If I still cannot successfully conceive a dragon seed this year, he will send my niece to me.

It must be because you are not capable enough. My health has been getting worse because of you. If I had known earlier, I should not have chosen you. I should have chosen your senior sister instead. "

"Your Highness, please forgive me. It is my fault. I will prescribe a prescription for you right now. However, you need to relax your mind to relieve the liver and regulate the qi."

The maidservant felt very upset when she saw that Concubine Lian was taking out her anger on her.

Over the past three years, they have gone from being ambitious at first to praying to gods and Buddhas, but they still have not been able to make Concubine Lian pregnant with the dragon seed.

As a female doctor, she was very clear about Concubine Lian's physical condition.

With her conditioning, she could basically be said to have a physique that was easy to conceive. At first, she was certain that as long as Emperor Mingde had sex with her, she would be able to become pregnant successfully.

However, after three years, Concubine Lian's belly remained unchanged.

Not to mention Concubine Lian, even she herself was almost doubting her own medical skills.

Of course, she was more skeptical about Emperor Mingde's ability in that area.

However, no man in the world is willing to admit that he has problems with offspring, let alone the emperor, who also gave birth to such an outstanding prince with the late queen.

Her official identity was Concubine Lian's personal maid, so naturally she had no right to question him.

If she spoke out the doubts in her heart, not to mention that there were spies of Emperor Mingde everywhere in and outside the palace, there was no question of whether she could survive.

Even Concubine Lian would never forgive her.

If Emperor Mingde cannot have children in this life, then Concubine Lian's wish to give birth to a dragon son will be unfulfilled, and she will become an unnecessary existence.

Given Concubine Lian's personality, she could kill anyone who was useless to her at will.

Seeing that she was talking to her, this slave dared to be distracted. Concubine Lian was immediately furious.

He picked up an ornament nearby and smashed it on her forehead.

"Slut, it's obvious that you are not good at medicine, yet you still dare to quibble. Did you hear that my niece is coming and want to find another job? I advise you to give up this idea.

You think she will want you, a piece of trash that I can't even serve! "

The maid was knocked to the ground unexpectedly, and her head was bleeding and stars were appearing in her eyes.

Despite this, she still endured the discomfort, struggled to kneel on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly, saying: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, it's all my fault, I won't dare to do it again!"

Princess Lian looked at her embarrassed appearance and a smug smile appeared on her face.

But before the smile could even appear on his eyes, he saw a eunuch crawling in as if he was being chased by a ghost.

"My Queen, something bad has happened! My Queen, something bad has happened!"
