Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty has indeed been quite busy in recent days due to the maritime ban, but it would be an exaggeration to say that he is so busy that he has no time to visit the harem.

He didn't have time to visit other concubines, but he still found time to visit the Queen's Changchun Palace often.

When Emperor Gaozong of Qing learned that Fu Cha Langya wanted to keep Wei Yanwan in Changchun Palace as his concubine in the future, he neither agreed nor disagreed.

Wei Yanwan was very happy every time she saw Emperor Gaozong of Qing coming over. The man was tall and handsome, exuding the charm of a mature man. Just staying in the same room with him made her feel very safe.

Now everyone in the palace knows that she is a reserve concubine, and with the queen's protection, no one dares to bully her anymore.

She felt that it was great to be protected by someone. No wonder all the women in the palace were vying for favor. Even if their status was not high, as long as they opened their eyes and found a reliable big tree, they would have nothing to worry about.

As expected, Bai Ruiji reported Lu Changqing to Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty, but just as Lu Changqing had guessed, the shady and pedantic Shiquan Laodeng did not take the quarrels among the women in the harem to heart at all.

He even commented that Lu Changqing was right, and told Bai Ruiji to learn from Lu Changqing and read more books. It didn't matter that she was illiterate, but a princess of a country should not be illiterate.

The person Bai Ruiji despised the most in the harem was Lu Changqing. Now the emperor actually wanted her to learn from him, so she was naturally furious.

Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty knew the course of history and naturally knew the importance of reading.

He has also heard the saying "Science and technology are the primary productive forces."

Where does technology come from? Of course, it comes from learning.

Thinking of this, Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty decided that after the maritime ban was temporarily resolved, the next step would be to reform the imperial examination system.

Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty decided to use Guangzhou as a pilot and sent his trusted men Zhaohui and Fuheng to Guangzhou for inspection. At this juncture, Jin Yuyan, who was confined to Qixiang Palace, gave birth.

After a night of heart-wrenching pain, Jin Yuyan gave birth to a boy.

Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty brought Fu Cha Langya to see Jin Yuyan once, but did not name the child or give any reward.

Jin Yuyan was very worried, not because she was worried about falling out of favor, after all, she was quite confident in her appearance. She was afraid that Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty would cause trouble for her lover because of the incident of harming the royal heir.

In order to get Emperor Gaozong of Qing to come and see her, Jin Yuyan cruelly took advantage of her own son and strangled the child so that he cried all night long.

As Jin Yuyan wished, Emperor Gaozong of Qing came impatiently and, on the grounds of poor care, had the child, who had just been named Yongsheng, taken away to Concubine Chun and asked her to help raise him.

Jin Yuyan was stunned. In order to give birth to a child, she had stepped half a step into the gates of hell. Although she didn't like Emperor Gaozong of Qing, it didn't mean that she didn't like her child! Besides, it was a boy!

Jin Yuyan grabbed the sleeve of Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty and cried, but Emperor Gaozong remained unmoved and threatened that if she dared to continue crying, she would be confined to her house for another year.

Jin Yuyan's side calmed down, but Hailan's belly grew bigger.

Hailan was really unlucky. She was raped by Hongli when she was still in Hongli's residence and was forced to stay with him. Therefore, she was always afraid of Hongli.

But what could she do no matter how fearful she was? The other party was a prince, and later became the emperor. Could she still kill him?

Hai Lan had never thought of regicide as a method. After that incident, the only thing she could think of was committing suicide.

Hai Lan is a timid, cowardly, kind-hearted and loyal person, otherwise she would not have been grateful to Ruyi for her whole life for the little warmth she gave her. People like her would never do such a thing as regicide.

If you ask Hai Lan what her life motto is, it must be: "I will repay your kindness on the Golden Terrace and die for you with the Jade Dragon."

For "Ruyi", she was not only repaying her parents' kindness, but also repaying her confidant.

Maybe this is the character the drama version wanted to write.

However, "Ruyi" is so unlikable that Hai Lan, who follows her, also looks abnormal.

Lu Changqing stroked Hailan's six-month-old belly and told her not to go to Yanxi Palace when it was cold.

"After the cinnabar incident, everyone in the palace knows that the emperor values ​​his offspring the most. Even if Concubine Gao doesn't like you, she wouldn't dare to do anything to you."

The baby Hai Lan was carrying in her belly was Prince Heshuo Yongqi from "Return of the Condor Heroes". In history, this Prince Heshuo Rong died of illness at the age of 25, leaving his mother to bury her young son.

Hailan touched her belly and said, "I feel bored staying in the palace, and the imperial physician told me to move around more, so I thought of coming to see my sister."

Lu Changqing sighed: "It's so fast, you are going to be a mother too."

Hai Lan thought that Lu Changqing was sad because she had been in the palace for so many years without a child, so she comforted her, "The emperor dotes on you so much, I'm sure you will be pregnant soon."

Lu Changqing: …

Where did the favor come from? When Lu Changqing just came out of the cold palace, Emperor Gaozong of Qing came once. After chatting for a while, he was disgusted by Lu Changqing's lingering gaze and never came again.

Lu Changqing said helplessly: "You just love to worry about nothing. Are you worried that I will be sad because I don't have my own children? I'm not sad. Not having children just saves me the pain of giving birth."

Hailan disagreed and said, "Sister, you can't say that. Only with a child can our future be guaranteed, right?"

"We can't leave the palace with our children, so where is the guarantee? When we get old, it won't be our children who will support us, but the masters of this Forbidden City."

"But...but no matter what, we still have to have a child."

Lu Changqing did not argue with Hai Lan about the issue of children. After all, even many modern people who have received modern education have the stupid idea that "a woman's life is incomplete if she doesn't give birth to children." It is not surprising that Hai Lan, a Qing Dynasty person who was written into the book, has this idea.

In March of the following year, Hai Lan gave birth to the fifth prince Yong Qi. Emperor Gaozong of Qing was very happy and simply let Hai Lan raise the child herself.

Lu Changqing was also happy for Hailan because after giving birth to Yongqi, she would no longer have to suffer the pain of pregnancy and childbirth.

In ancient times, confinement after childbirth was extremely painful. Not to mention washing your hair and taking a bath, even when opening a window, the gap could not be too big.

In order to make Hailan's confinement period more comfortable, Lu Changqing stayed with Hailan during the day and helped take care of the child with the wet nurse. At the same time, in order to keep the room ventilated, she would go in and out of Hailan's room from time to time in the name of feeding, holding the child.

Gao Xiyue saw Lu Changqing's attentiveness and laughed, "Empress Xian, since you can't have children yourself, you treat other people's children as your own?"

Gao Xiyue in the TV series is not smart. Because of her Han ethnicity, she feels inferior to Langya and Ruyi. But she is unwilling to accept this and wants to climb up the social ladder, so she actively tries to please Langya and target Ruyi.

This character is also the one in this fan fiction. Although he helped other concubines to have abortions together with Jin Yuyan, he never harmed Langya. He just often teased her behind her back. His final ending was in line with history. He died of illness at a young age.

"Look at what the Imperial Concubine said. Yongqi is the Emperor's child, and we are all his concubines, so the Emperor's child is naturally our child."

What Lu Changqing said was too high-sounding. Gao Xiyue didn't find anything wrong. She curled her lips in dissatisfaction and cursed her "hypocrisy" inwardly. She rolled her eyes at her and turned away, stepping on the bottom of the flower pot.
