Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 649 Background Rabbit Spirit (21)
Tears are one of the most useful weapons in a woman's arsenal.
Sure enough, with just a little cry, Shen Yao was able to control Lin Xingzhi.
The topic of their conversation unconsciously shifted to other topics, and Shen Yao took the opportunity to talk about what she had seen and heard in Prince Yong's Mansion today.
When the old princess mentioned that she was planning to send a concubine to the palace, Lin Xingzhi sneered, "Uncle Wang is open-minded, it's the old princess who won't give up."
The situation in Prince Yong's Mansion is more complicated than that of other palaces. The old princess has no sons but only daughters. The current prince of Prince Yong's Mansion was born to a concubine, and the prince's wife has no in-law relationship with the old princess.
The old princess is getting older. Although she still has the final say in the palace, her uncle's health is not good. It makes no difference to the old princess whether Prince Yong is there or not.
Therefore, the old princess urgently needs a backer or partner to ensure that her quality of life in the future can remain the same.
"The old princess admires her niece very much. I think she is a smart child, but..." Shen Yao frowned and suddenly smiled gently, "she is too smart."
She thinks everyone else is a fool and she is the only smart person.
Lin Xingzhi: ...
Lin Xingzhi raised his hand and pressed his brow. "How can you say that? It seems that the old princess's plan is likely to fail."
He knew his wife, Yao Niang was never someone who liked to pour cold water on others.
There must be something very wrong with the old princess's niece, as she could make Yao Niang say such things.
"Maybe the emperor will like it? The old princess's family also sent someone to the palace before, but unfortunately the effect was not good," so he cultivated a new card.
"There are so many beauties in my royal brother's harem, and he must have seen everything. If the old princess still looks at you with old eyes," she will be in big trouble.
Shen Yao looked up and glared at Lin Xingzhi, thinking that this man spoke so bluntly, it must be because there were only his own people here, otherwise it would cause trouble if it got out.
"In next year's beauty pageant, all the families who are interested will send their daughters to the palace," Lin Xingzhi lowered his eyes and shook his head. This kind of thing has always been impossible to prohibit.
Ambition will expand, and the previous second and the next second cannot be exactly the same, not to mention the old foxes immersed in officialdom. As long as the position of the next crown prince of the country is vacant, there will be people rushing forward one after another.
"The Queen has just lifted the ban. Do you think the palace will become bustling?"
Shen Yao maliciously recalled the ugly look on the Queen's face when she summoned her. Not only did she try her best to conceal her disdain, she also tried to act amiable.
Only a few days have passed, and next year there will be so many half-sisters. Even if she is the queen, she will be driven crazy.
"Naughty"
Lin Xingzhi raised his hand and lightly scratched the tip of Shen Yao's nose, indicating that the queen should be aware of this when she sits in this position.
The large number of concubines in the harem has not been a one-day or two-day thing. She did not do a good job as a queen before, and making trouble now will only make her situation more difficult and cause trouble to the eldest prince. There is no benefit in doing so.
“The eldest prince is about to come of age and marry a wife. Even if the queen wants to make a scene, the Jin family and the eldest prince will do everything they can to stop her.
At this time, the Queen's job is to help the eldest prince stabilize the harem situation to prevent his half-brothers from stealing the house."
As for competing for favor and love, these are not things that the mother and son need to care about.
After all, no matter how favored a new concubine is, it will take more than ten years for her to give birth to a child and see him grow up safely.
During such a long period of vacancy, the Queen and the eldest prince were unable to secure the position of Crown Prince, and they could not even save their own lives.
"Humph! You've grown up, become more independent, and now you dare to speak to the Queen Mother like that!"
In Fengyi Palace, the Queen and the eldest prince and his mother were confronting each other, and the Queen went crazy first and started throwing things and hitting things.
The crackling sound continued to be heard from the main hall, causing the palace servants who were serving to not dare to look up, and even wished they could bury their bodies in the ground.
"Mother, I have absolutely no such thoughts. I just want you to calm down and consider the situation."
The eldest prince was tired. His health had been poor since he was young, but it was maintained well thanks to the treatment of the imperial physician.
When the mantis demon was causing chaos, the eldest prince was plotted against for no reason and his health was not good. The emperor ordered him to recuperate slowly, but this incident made the queen feel that the emperor did it on purpose because he did not want the eldest prince to get involved in court affairs and compete with him for power.
To this end, the queen not only reduced the frequency of the imperial physician's treatment for the eldest prince, but also urged the eldest prince to contact the Jin family outside the palace as soon as possible to prepare for entering the court to participate in politics.
The queen's actions can be described as murder. I have never seen a mother who doesn't care about the life and death of her own son.
Not to mention that the emperor thought it was ridiculous, even the eldest prince thought there was something wrong with his mother.
So, the eldest prince took advantage of his free time to rush to Fengyi Palace to talk and persuade his mother, but before he could say a few words, he was retorted by his own mother.
The eldest prince:......
Seeing his mother was about to talk non-stop, the eldest prince continued to speak tentatively, "Mother, son..."
boom!
The exquisite porcelain bottle fell at the eldest prince's feet and broke into several pieces.
Well, I can’t say anymore.
The eldest prince sighed inwardly, and with a look of helplessness and respect, he bowed and said, "Anger is harmful to the body. I am an unfilial son. I hope the Queen Mother takes care of herself. I will take my leave first."
After saying this, the eldest prince turned and left.
The tightness in his chest became more and more obvious, and he staggered a few steps when he went out and was supported by a palace maid.
"master"
"nothing"
The eldest prince exhaled lightly, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell on his temples.
"Don't make it public, let's go back to the palace and talk about it," the eldest prince held on, unwilling to expose his physical condition in Fengyi Palace.
Not to mention his tense relationship with his mother, there are many spies inside and outside Fengyi Palace. If any of his situation is leaked, the entire harem will have no peace.
The eldest prince did not want to cause any more trouble, so he went back to his palace to call the imperial physician.
Unfortunately, the imperial physician did not bring him any good news. He only said that if he continued like this, it would obviously shorten his lifespan.
"...Thank you, Imperial Physician, for your concern. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and cannot disturb you. I have been informed of this matter and this is the end of it."
The eldest prince warned the imperial physician with his eyes not to meddle in other people's affairs, to prescribe the necessary medicines and to say less about other things.
Imperial Physician:...
"Yes, I understand."
Turning around, the imperial physician bowed his head and knelt in the palace where the emperor was.
The imperial physician was worried that his life would be in danger after truthfully describing his words and actions in the Grand Prince's palace and the Grand Prince's requests.
"Since the eldest prince has said so, then follow his instructions. Remember to use the best medicine. If there is any problem in the future, you don't have to reply to me."
The emperor is already middle-aged, and his majesty is even greater.
He finished speaking lightly about the matter and waved his hand to let the imperial physician leave.
The only people left in the empty hall were the emperor and the eunuchs accompanying him.
"Little Li, do you think Cheng'er understands that what he did today was not worth it?"
The emperor sounded somewhat melancholy. Although his marriage to the queen was based on considerations of interests, the eldest prince was still the most important among all his sons in the emperor's heart.
Watching his son grow from a small boy to the handsome young man he is today, the emperor still has some fatherly feelings in his heart, otherwise he would not have asked the imperial physician to do his best to treat the eldest prince and let him recuperate.
This child is just too filial and kind. Doesn't he know that what is being delayed now is his own life and the chance of succession?
Queen, Queen!
The emperor was so furious that he wanted to rush into Fengyi Palace and settle the score with the queen!
Is she Cheng'er's biological mother? She forced the child like this, and there is also the Jin family outside the palace. Humph! It's really good!
"Tsk, so it's everyone else's fault, not mine, right?"
Shen Yao was amused by the emperor's train of thought and thought to herself, "Brother, don't laugh at your second brother. No wonder he and the queen could become husband and wife. They have so much in common."
"Host, the eldest prince is in poor health. It seems that the position of crown prince will probably not be decided."
Gossip is the main business of the system, and having children is its additional function.
Look, he just ran to the palace and heard a lot of news, then turned around and told it to his host.
"How dare you, a king, care about such things? The emperor has more sons than I can count on both hands."
Even without the eldest prince, there is still the second prince, the third prince, and even the unborn princes.
The position of crown prince has always been undetermined before the throne is ascended.
After lying on her side, Shen Yao pointed at the emperor who was currently sitting on the throne and said, "That's a ready-made example. During the previous emperor's time, the princes fought each other fiercely, and in the end, the emperor took advantage of the opportunity and succeeded."
Considering the harem situation of the two emperors, how many people do you think have such thoughts?
Not to mention that the eldest prince is in poor health, even if he is in good health, he cannot stop the various conspiracies and tricks directed at him.
system:……
嘶
It is indeed a bit scary to think about it this way. If you put yourself in the eldest prince's perspective, you will find that your situation is so difficult that it is not an exaggeration to say that you are surrounded by enemies from all sides.
"Well, the royal family's affairs have nothing to do with us. Lin Xingzhi's body is almost recovered, and there are some things that need to be settled with those demons."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Yao's originally relaxed and happy expression immediately became serious and indifferent.
The system was startled by the host's extraordinary expression change, and quickly reflected on whether it had been too unrestrained one day and made the host unhappy.
Well
That shouldn't be the case. It has no other problems recently except being chattering. Could it be that it talks too much and disturbs the host's eyes?
"The locusts that fell back into the city," As soon as the system stopped talking, Shen Yao knew that the little thing must have gone astray again. She speechlessly mentioned the culprit who caused Lin Xingzhi to be injured a few days ago, "Logically speaking, the probability of insects becoming spirits is much lower than that of animals and plants becoming spirits.
After all, this is a world where humans and demons fall in love, and the premise of opposite sex attraction is appearance. If you want to fall in love, you must have this capital.
Insects are already strange-looking, and they are even more bizarre when they transform into human form.
With such a low success rate, how did they accomplish the Luogui City incident? There couldn't be any conspiracy behind it.
"Host, do you think it's a demon? "Because the host mentioned that he wanted to settle accounts with certain demons, there must be no human here.
"Not necessarily. Perhaps the murderer behind this is a human, but the incident in Luogui City was definitely caused by a demon."
Only a monster could do things so crudely. If it were a human, the worst that could happen would be to find a scapegoat to temporarily smooth things over. When everything was ready, they could directly attack the capital. Who knows, the position might even have to be replaced.
Now that Lin Xingzhi had tried it out by accident, not only did he fail to achieve the effect he wanted, but he also exposed his plan in advance. It was possible that the court and the emperor were on guard against it.
No matter how you look at it, it's a loss. It doesn't seem like something that an average person with eight hundred brains would do.
After listening to the host, the system flatteredly said that what the host said made sense, so what did it need to do?
Shen Yao raised her eyebrows and said, "Of course, we need to investigate the current situation of Luogui City and the escape routes of the locusts."
You can also keep an eye on the temples and Taoist temples in the capital to prevent any traitors.
The system was well-behaved and obedient, and immediately went about its business as instructed by the host.
Of course, on this basis, it still hasn't forgotten its gossip business.
Fortunately, there are people in these places, and where there are people, there is the world of martial arts. Although there is no gossip in the palace to attract Tong, it can also kill Tong's boring life and make him temporarily ignore that he is just a piece of data that can be deleted at any time.
In a corner that Shen Yao doesn’t know (or maybe knows), everyone (everyone) has their own troubles.
…………
The system was very efficient this time, and within just a few days it delivered news on the current situation of Luogui City and the whereabouts of the escaped locusts.
'The locust outbreak was too sudden, causing Luogui City to lose too many people.
Later, the government relocated the people there, and now the area is slowly returning to its former population.
But there was something strange about Luogui City, I couldn't explain it. The system could only show the host the video about Luogui City. After all, it was not a human, and the content analyzed based on certain specific instructions was very easily affected.
'The traces of the escaped locusts were all around Luogui City.
There are also some in the capital, which are the temples and Taoist temples that the host system monitors. They all sent personnel to Luogui City in the past.'
The system's mechanical voice was a little confused, "Host, why do you feel that these messages are useless?"
It spent a lot of effort to find out what was going on, but in the end, after going around in circles, it seemed to be back to the starting point.
This time, Shen Yao didn't complain about the system being useless, nor did she mock it. "It's useful. Your information makes it clear to me that the monsters here are really stupid."
After reading so many storybooks, I thought the most dangerous place is the safest place.
The system felt that something was wrong with Luogui City because the locust monster had not left and was still there. The traces of the escaped locusts also explained the problem of Luogui City very well.
As for the locusts found in temples and Taoist temples in the capital, they are likely spoils of war. Of course, there is a very small chance that they are parasitic, which would require more systematic and rigorous monitoring to detect.
"Host, please rest assured and leave this matter to me," the system's mood became excited.
Shen Yao:......
"Report any issues at any time. Wait another half month and we'll go to Luogui City to seek justice for them."
Can her people be bullied so easily? Shen Yao lowered her head and blew on her round fingertips. The flickering candlelight beside her cast a long shadow on the window.
I could hear footsteps coming from far away.
Shen Yao looked up, and her sight across the candlelight met Lin Xingzhi who pushed the door open.
"Yao Niang"
"behavior"
Shen Yao stood up and buried herself in Lin Xingzhi's chest.
"what happened?"
Lin Xingzhi looked at Shen Yao seriously, fearing that his wife would be hurt when he was not paying attention. He treated the great demon as a tiny doll.
