Is there too much birth in the quick wear?

As for Shen'er, the emperor named her Concubine Shen and granted her the right to live in Jianjia Palace. After Shen'er became Liu Ying's woman, she became the most favored concubine in the harem.

The things that Liu Ying entrusted to Shen'er were still in charge of as usual. Originally, Liu Ying had planned to let Shen'er take care of some of the affairs in the Han Palace as well.

But Shen'er refused, and now the Han Palace is basically still in the hands of Lu Zhi.

What Liu Ying was talking about taking care of was just the business of his other women, so why should she bother?

It is better to deal with the matter in your own hands. Besides, it is a slave society now and the slave trade is legal.

Nie Shen'er also wanted to do some things of her own so that she could have more manpower.

While Shen'er was arranging her own affairs, she also asked Liu Ying to show her love and affection. Liu Ying directly handed over all his private property to Shen'er to manage.

This also gives Shen Er a lot of room for development.

The productivity of today's society is very low, iron tools are very scarce, and weapons commonly used in the army are mostly wooden spears or bronze weapons.

Even if Shen'er knew where iron ore was produced and how to smelt iron, her current situation was not suitable for her to show them.

Moreover, the agricultural tools nowadays are of very poor quality. Many agricultural tools that were very useful in later generations are not available now, and some of the agricultural tools are made of wood.

What Shen'er can't stand the most is that nowadays food is almost all boiled or grilled, and many seasonings are almost non-existent. The most used thing is salt.

This was a bit unbearable for Shen'er, who always loved eating.

So, Shen'er decided to start improving his life first.

Shen'er found some spices from later generations. Of course, some of them were available in pharmacies, and some actually grew in the wild.

Nowadays people still use bamboo slips or silk to read, which is very inconvenient.

Therefore, Shen'er didn't find much seasoning after searching for a long time, but the simple version was enough.

Shen'er didn't do much. She just used these seasonings to make marinades and then opened a restaurant directly in Chang'an City.

That’s right, this simple braised food is a rare delicacy for people who only eat boiled or grilled food every day.

Nie Shen'er set the prices quite high because she wanted to make money so that she could do more things.

Even so, the restaurant opened by Shen'er was still crowded with customers, and Shen'er even developed a new business, packaging, which was not available in this dynasty.

While Shen'er was earning money, he used it to buy and sell slaves and train them to be his own people.

Shen'er also planned Liu Ying's land and directly told the tenants and slaves how to farm scientifically and how to fertilize the land to increase production.

Fortunately, the people here may have been accustomed to obeying orders in everything, so even what Shen'er said to them was difficult for them to understand.

But it does not prevent them from strictly enforcing Shen'er's words, which makes Shen'er feel that this is also very good.

Of course, this is also another kind of sadness of this dynasty, because human life at that time was worthless, and it was possible that a human life was not worth as much as an animal.

Anyway, Shen'er had heard before that some nobles had developed a game, which was to release slaves into a hunting ground.

Then they put labels on their slaves and shoot them together. The side with the most slaves left at the end wins.

When Shen'er heard about this, she was very angry. Although she had killed people, she would never joke about human life like this.

She killed those who deserved to be killed. She is powerless to change the overall situation now, but she will try her best.

Not long after Shen'er became Liu Ying's woman, she became pregnant. This was because Shen'er took the elixir of fertility after having sex with Liu Ying.

Shen'er is now two months pregnant, and the doctors in the palace have already found out.

However, Shen'er was not the first pregnant person in the palace. There was another pregnant woman in the palace, Zhou Cainü, who was already five months pregnant.

Shen'er didn't think about what to do with Zhou Cainv's belly. She didn't feel that she had to give birth to Liu Ying's eldest son.

Although the eldest son's status in the Han Palace was important, he still disdained to take action against a pregnant woman and an embryo.

It was Lu Zhi who called Yan'er over.

"Yan'er, you are the queen, but now you can't have your own children. Have you ever thought about what you will do in the future?"

Lu Zhi asked Zhang Yan, wanting to know if Zhang Yan had any plans for her future.

"Grandma, Yan'er doesn't understand what you mean?" Yan'er has never thought about the future. Doesn't she have a grandmother and an emperor uncle?

"Yan'er, if you continue to be the queen, then when Zhou Cainu gives birth to a child, I will give it to you to raise. This way, the child will be closer to you in the future."

Yan'er seemed to have come to understand something else in Lu Zhi's words. Now Yan'er was much bolder than before, so she asked directly:

"Grandma, can I not be the queen?"

However, Lu Zhi was thinking about this issue in her heart. She was wondering whether she should let Yan'er divorce the emperor.

Yan'er is still young, and we shouldn't let such a small girl waste her best years in the palace like this.

However, Lu Zhi could not tell Yan'er now. After all, the divorce between the emperor and the queen was a big matter and involved too many things. Everything needed to be considered carefully.

So, Lu Zhi comforted her: "Yan'er, don't talk nonsense. Come, grandma has something good for you."

Lu Zhi directly diverted Zhang Yan's attention, but Du Yunxi, who came with Zhang Yan, kept Lu Zhi's words and expression in mind.

At this time, Du Yunxi was planning how to hook up with Liu Ying so as to become the emperor's concubine.

This was the first time that Du Yunxi followed Zhang Yan to Lu Zhi's palace. During this period, she finally managed to get close to Zhang Yan through her hard work and intelligence.

She also succeeded in getting Zhang Yan to take her with her wherever she went.

What she didn't expect was that even when she arrived at the Queen Mother's palace, she didn't speak or do anything.

She was just a qualified background board like other palace maids, but she was still noticed by Lu Zhi.

The main reason was that the timing of her appearance was just right. During this period, Lu Zhi was looking for a suitable family member to send to the various vassal states to gather information.

This was not the first time that Lu Zhi had done this. The princes and various countries had always been eyeing the throne, and Lu Zhi was really worried that one day one of them would rebel.

That's why she often sent spies over to monitor. If the vassal states really had the intention of rebelling, she could make preparations in advance.

The reason why I noticed Du Yunxi was not because of anything else, but because of her beauty that she was proud of.

However, at this time, Lu Zhi did not tell anyone about her plan, but took Zhang Yan to choose the new cloth sent by the palace servants.

Du Yunxi had been trying to get Liu Ying's attention during this period, but she didn't expect that Liu Ying was busy with the invasion of the Huns during this period.

He was so busy every day that he had little time to come to the harem. When he came to the harem, apart from visiting the pregnant Zhou Cainü, he basically went to see Concubine Shen.
