The queen in my memory was dull and boring, and did things in a methodical manner.

I always like to bring up rules to make things happen.

However, the last time she met Shan Xi, she seemed to be a little different. At least, she was not so rigid anymore.

Therefore, when he came to Kunning Palace, he was not so resistant.

"Of course I said it according to the rules." Empress Zhou had no choice. She had no real power now. Moreover, the reduction in the allowance was not just for Concubine De's palace. The entire harem, every one of them, was within the scope of this reduction.

Even the emperor is like this.

No matter how powerful Concubine De is, she can't be greater than the emperor.

"That's all." Emperor Chengtian said indifferently, "Recently, the court has many places where it needs money, but the treasury is empty. There is no other way to reduce the allowance. As a concubine, shouldn't you share my worries?"

When he saw the Mo Dao, he was indeed amazed.

It can be said that he couldn't let it go. He knew the actual combat power of the Mo Dao very well. Therefore, he had to make the Mo Dao. The treasury was empty for more than one or two days, or even one or two years.

Externally, the continuous wars and various livelihood issues were the biggest expenses. Internally, corruption was rampant. He tried many methods, but with little effect.

Therefore, this time, he thought of using the silver for making the Mo Dao to support his harem.

There were so many people in the harem, all of them were kept plump and white, and they didn't produce anything. He felt it was very polite to just reduce their allowance.

Seeing that Queen Zhou seemed to be hesitant to speak, he was in a good mood today, so he asked, "What else?"

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess is already four years old." Empress Zhou was urged to tell the second thing.

"Oh." Emperor Chengtian just responded lightly.

He's just a child, just take good care of him. Do you really need to hold a ceremony or a party at the age of four?

Seeing that Emperor Chengtian did not understand what she meant, Empress Zhou could only continue, "Your Majesty, there has been no child born in this palace for a long time. The eldest prince is already eight years old. Your Majesty should consider the issue of an heir."

Emperor Chengtian may not be destined to have a son.

There were so many women in the harem who gave birth to his children. However, in the end, there was only one prince, the eldest prince, and the rest were all princesses.

Today, Concubine De came to see the Queen under the pretext of cutting expenses, but her biggest purpose was to ask the Queen to persuade His Majesty about the issue of offspring.

Your Majesty has already taken charge of the government.

But there are very few sons.

To put it bluntly, if anything happened to the eldest prince, Emperor Chengtian would be childless and have no successor.

"The Queen wants to have a son?" Emperor Chengtian looked at Queen Zhou with evil taste. He clearly understood what she said, but she didn't mean that. However, he had to misinterpret it as that.

"Your Majesty!" Queen Zhou's expression suddenly changed. She had been so dignified and serious before, but in an instant, her expression darkened!

When she first married into the palace, she was pregnant, but unfortunately, she was too young at that time. She didn't know anything and she didn't have the ability to keep her child.

From then on, it seemed like she had no chance of getting pregnant.

Even if other concubines and beauties gave birth to daughters, they would do so one after another, but she could not.

Later, she figured it out herself. If she didn't want to have a baby, then she didn't.

As long as her Zhou family does not fall, she is still the daughter of the Zhou family, and her position as queen can be secure.

As long as she secures her position as queen, the Zhou family will not fall easily.

She stopped thinking about her children.

However, when His Majesty spoke to her about having a child in such a teasing tone, she really felt disgusted in an instant.

Your Majesty's behavior is tantamount to opening up her scars and pouring salt on them.

"Your Majesty, I know that I am not blessed with a prince, so I dare not delay Your Majesty. However, Your Majesty has no children, so please go to other palace concubines to sit more often. It will also help them give birth to princes for Your Majesty as soon as possible." After saying this, Queen Zhou stood up and acted as if she was going to see him off.

"The queen is truly a virtuous queen!" Emperor Chengtian looked at Queen Zhou and said vaguely.

After saying this, he took Eunuch Guo and left Kunning Palace.

"My lady, why do you say that? Your Majesty can stay tonight." Lingzhi was the maidservant that came with Queen Zhou.

Following Queen Zhou all the way here.

She knew everything that Queen Zhou had experienced.

Today is the first day of the new year. If all goes well, His Majesty will not go anywhere else tonight and can only stay in Kunning Palace.

But the words of the Queen just now obviously made His Majesty angry. So His Majesty left without looking back.

Her master is the queen, who should be the most honorable person in the palace, but, after so many years.

Apart from anything else, those concubines who gave birth to children, no matter how high or low their positions were, all felt contempt towards their own queens.

To put it bluntly, they were bullying the Queen because she didn't have her own children. And the Queen was too kind.

If the Queen had her own children, those people would definitely not act like that.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here? I don't want to have a baby now." Her position in this palace is just like that.

If she really had a child now, I don't know how the Queen Mother would treat her.

Zhenfei, who gave birth to the eldest prince, was summoned by the Empress Dowager from time to time to set rules.

Even the eldest prince was the same. In addition to his daily studies, it was common for him to go to the Queen Mother's Palace to follow the rules.

People outside the court who don't know the inside story say that the eldest prince is filial and often accompanies his grandmother. But is this the truth? !

His Majesty didn't care, so she won't care now.

Emperor Chengtian came out of Kunning Palace with a lot of anger.

From what Queen Zhou said, it seems that he is just a tool for giving birth to children.

This is really intolerable.

"Your Majesty, how about which queen's palace should we go to rest tonight?" Eunuch Guo also felt that what the queen said was right. There had been no newborns in the palace for a long time.

I don't know what's happened to His Majesty these past few years. He doesn't like going to the harem at all. He doesn't seem to be interested in that kind of thing anymore.

Could it be that I used it too hard in the past few years and something went wrong? !

This idea had been lingering in Eunuch Guo's mind for a long time, but he had never dared to say it out loud.

If this happens accidentally, it may cost him his life!

''roll!''

Emperor Chengtian shouted angrily and Eunuch Guo shut up. He followed Emperor Chengtian back to the imperial study room obediently.
