Wait for me, and watch me fight my way back to the reincarnation path

"Master, don't speak nonsense."

The woman immediately looked angry.

"Our emperor is mighty and has had three or four princes and five or six princesses since a long time ago. However, alas, there was a war a few years ago, the eldest prince died in the war, and the princes after him became ill and depressed. I don't know what happened, but they died one by one. So now, the emperor has no prince left, so..."

"Is that so? That's not right. If that's the case, then why didn't the Ruan family send their daughter to the palace? This is also an opportunity. If she gives birth to a son, she will be able to ascend to heaven in one step."

"Which one is it... But I can't say for sure."

"why?"

"Alas, this is not the first year that they have selected concubines. They did it once two years ago. At that time, all the candidates were from famous families, but none of them got pregnant."

"No way?! Could it be that the emperor is not capable?"

"Oh, Master, don't talk nonsense."

As the woman spoke, she unexpectedly threw out a handkerchief. Qin Qiong was sitting opposite her and couldn't see how the handkerchief came out.

"Our emperor still has six or seven princesses in his palace. How can you say that the emperor is dying? Moreover, all the famous doctors in and outside the palace have checked that our emperor is fine, but it's just..."

The woman continued with some resentment.

"So, this time, no matter if they are from a high-ranking family or not, as long as they are from an official family, they can all go for the selection, right?"

"That's right, didn't you see the motorcades at the city gate? They were all foreign officials from various places coming to Beijing to send their daughters off."

"But, they just had an election two years ago...don't they know? Are they afraid it will be the same this time?"

"This time is different. I heard that our emperor has consulted several famous doctors, and they all said that this time it will work. Otherwise, could it be that the emperor is really childless?"

"Oh, I see... By the way, did you know that's where all the beauties he got before went?"

"I don't know. Some may still be in the palace, and some may have been given away. After all, there are too many beauties given to the emperor by others, and he has never seen many of them. So, sometimes he gives them away when he is happy."

"Give it to someone? Who would it be given to? If it was still in the palace, where would it be now?"

"I don't know about that. However, if we talk about who has received the most beauties from the Emperor, it would be General Fu. But, haha... it's the same for this general."

"Same? What's the same?"

"Hehe... no heir."

The woman covered her mouth and laughed when she said this.

"Hehe... Anyway, General Fu has no offspring so far. The emperor at least has a prince, but he doesn't have any."

"…Maybe there are too many women and I am tired."

"Haha... Sect Master, what are you talking about?"

"Let's chat... That's right."

Qin Qiong leaned forward a little and said to the woman in a low voice, "The Ruan family and the first lady are all very anxious about this selection, but you seem to be calm. Do you think the emperor can give birth to a prince this time?"

"Hi!"

The woman sighed softly: "I have advised, but the eldest lady didn't listen... The Ruan family has other thoughts, they are different..."

"Oh? How is it different? Tell me."

"The young lady from the Ruan family... I heard that she has someone in her heart, so she refused to enter the palace. However, her family holds an official position in the court, so she must be selected, so..."

"If you ask me, my family is also a royal merchant, so I should tell him clearly. If he wins, I'm afraid my family won't have a place in this city, but..."

When the woman said this, she saw the eldest lady looking at her with a frown, so she quickly stopped talking.

"Is there someone in your heart? Is it true that just because the young lady doesn't want to, his family dares to bully you?"

Qin Qiong glanced at the lady and continued to ask the woman.

"It's not considered deceiving the emperor. When sending her away, we explained that she was a daughter of the Ruan family, and the Ruan family would be fine. If they really pursued it, she was a godparent. But if there really was a child, who would care whose daughter it was? If not... whoever it was, so what?"

"go out!"

The eldest lady couldn't bear to listen any longer. She stood up suddenly and yelled at the woman.

Qin Qiong was also startled, and the woman immediately retracted her lively eyes, lowered her head and stood up obediently.

Qin Qiong hurriedly stood up and held her down, then turned around and shook his head at the eldest lady, signaling her not to be angry. The eldest lady gritted her teeth and sat back down.

"…That makes sense, but if that's the case, then the lives of these young ladies will be ruined, don't you think?"

Qin Qiong said to the woman, who was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and said nothing.

"But it's true. If she can really give birth to a prince, then even if she is a princess, if not a noble concubine, then she must be an imperial concubine. As long as she is a member of the Jia family, then the Jia family will have a permanent place in this city, right?"

Qin Qiong changed the subject and said to the woman with a smile.

The woman raised her head and smiled, but then she glanced secretly at the eldest lady and lowered her head again.

Qin Qiong sat back with a smile, picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

She shook her head and continued, "But how can we make the eldest lady be chosen? We also need to find the right time to be seen by the emperor. This is very important. Otherwise, with so many beauties this time, we will have to wait until the end of time. What can we do?"

The woman raised her head, thought for a moment, and then lowered her head again. Seeing this, Qin Qiong hurried forward.

He smiled and said to her, "How do you know that the emperor has invited an outside doctor to treat the illness? Does the whole city know about this?"

"I...of course I can't know everything. This is a secret."

The woman lowered her head and thought for a moment before she looked up and said to Qin Qiong, "One of my former sisters told me this."

"She said that a doctor we know has entered the palace to work. This doctor is very good at treating that disease. The imperial doctors in the palace don't know how to treat this disease... That's why I know about it."

"I see. Who is it? Tell me..."

"This... is the Doctor Wang from the Baoan Hall. He is very famous for treating diseases of that kind. Now, he can enter and leave the palace. He is very nervous. I heard that all the imperial doctors in the palace give way to him."

"You really know him? Great! Then can you talk to that Doctor Wang?"

"This one……"

The woman glanced at the eldest lady secretly again and lowered her head.

"It's okay. If this succeeds, you will be the first to achieve great success. Think about it, the person has been sent to prison now. If you don't try to find a way to get another chance, will your Jia family leave Bande City and never come back? Don't you think so? The eldest lady knows it well."

Qin Qiong simply turned sideways and spoke to the woman in a low voice, avoiding the eldest lady's gaze.

The woman lowered her head but moved her eyes a few times.

Seeing her like this, Qin Qiong gently pushed her with his hand and squinted his eyes to indicate that he was there and everything was fine.

"This one……"

The woman finally spoke: "Doctor Wang, I have seen him several times. His medical skills are quite famous in Bande City."

"However, this person is a bit greedy. In the past, if you wanted to invite him privately, it would cost a lot of money."

"Oh, so you mean, just give me money?"
