My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

The most noble father and son in the world finished a lunch that was delicious in its own way.

After lunch, the emperor finished showing off, and his tool son started to look at him with displeasure.

He waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, you've already eaten. What are you still standing here for? Why don't you go to the back and see your mother?"

The prince took his leave in frustration.

Went out the door and came towards the queen.

The queen had known that her son was coming today and had planned to invite the prince to have lunch, but she didn't expect the emperor to leave food for him first.

He called a few concubines who usually flattered him to come over and have dinner with him and talk to relieve his boredom.

Naturally, the concubines used all their abilities to please the queen.

Especially when I saw the queen holding a peace amulet in her hand and couldn't let it go, I heard that it was a reward from the emperor.

There was an endless stream of flattering words.

Some praised the emperor and empress for their loving relationship, while others praised the empress for her enduring favor.

He is simply eloquent.

It’s a pity that none of them touched the Queen’s heart.

The concubines tried to please the queen for a long time, but the queen was still lazy and did not look particularly happy.

Suddenly, I felt unsure, and the praise gradually faded away.

The more cautious the concubines became, the more stiff and awkward the atmosphere became.

The queen was feeling bored and wanted to find an excuse to get rid of these concubines.

When I heard that the prince was coming to pay his respects, I had a ready-made excuse.

The concubines did not dare to stay and stood up to say goodbye.

When he came out, he ran into the prince head-on. He didn't even dare to raise his head and quickly moved aside.

The prince was quite respectful. He bowed to the concubines and went in.

The young concubines looked at the young and strong appearance of the prince and didn't know what to feel for a moment.

The emperor is old, and especially after recovering from a serious illness, he needs to take care of his health and has not favored his concubines for a long time.

It would be fine if she was a concubine of high rank, as she either had children or a position.

They have nothing but youth and beauty.

To be honest, if the emperor passed away, they would probably be sent to the royal temple to practice asceticism.

I used to think that if I was lucky enough to get pregnant, no matter the boy or girl, I would have hope for the rest of my life.

Now it seems that they should just try to please the Queen honestly. If the Emperor really dies in the future, the Queen will be more lenient with them because of their flattery.

As for the queen, who was placed with high hopes by several concubines, she was stunned by her son's behavior at the moment.

As the prince entered the room, he saw the queen handing the amulet to the maid beside her: "Go pick out a nice sachet or purse, put the amulet inside, and seal the opening."

The prince listened to the emperor showing off his amulet for a long time, and at this moment he was allergic to these three words.

As soon as he heard it, he stretched out his hand: "What kind of amulet is it that makes the Queen Mother cherish it so much? Let my son see it too."

The Queen slapped the Prince's hand away and said, "That's the amulet that Le An specially asked for me. What are you looking at?"

At the same time, he signaled to the nanny to take the things away quickly.

The prince was amazed. It turned out that his good brother had sent two back. Not only his father had one, but his mother also had one.

My father is still showing off like a big shot, and he is not the only one. What is there to be proud of?

If it were someone else, he would definitely go back and laugh at them.

But that was his father, so forget it, he should go back to the city and find Changle.

Whisper in Changle's ear and let Changle ask Le'an for it.

As long as Changle asks, Le'an will definitely agree.

By then, I think his half-brother will remember to ask for one for him, right?

When the prince thought of this, he felt itchy all over and could no longer sit still.

After chatting with the Queen about some family matters and expressing concern for her health, he was about to say goodbye.

The queen did not stay long and stood up as usual. The prince helped her up and said something very quickly and softly in the prince's ear.

The prince's eyes narrowed, and before he could show shock on his face, he was pinched hard by the queen.

The prince woke up immediately.

He exchanged a complicated look with the queen before taking his leave.

After leaving the palace, he got on the carriage back to the palace.

When there was only one person in the carriage, the prince looked tired, rubbed his face, and covered his face with the warm handkerchief in the carriage.

Under the handkerchief was the prince's shocked face.

Just now the Queen said only one sentence: The Emperor doesn't have much time left.

Although he didn't know from which channel the Queen got the news, the Prince knew that his mother would not tell him unless she was absolutely sure.

That means the emperor is really worried that there is something seriously wrong with his health.

If you think about it carefully, you will understand that the emperor is old and his last serious illness really damaged his vitality. If his body did not really allow it, the emperor would not give up power and let himself, the prince, govern the country.

For a moment, the prince felt mixed emotions.

I don’t know whether I was happy or not, but I finally saw the light of day on my road to the throne.

It’s still sad that my father won’t live long.

Of course, more than that, there was also panic, and subconscious thoughts that kept turning in his mind: if his father passed away, how would he ascend the throne smoothly, how would he control power, how would he prevent his brothers from causing trouble...

In the end, all thoughts turned into calmness.

The prince took off the scarf covering his face and looked calm.

No matter what, he had to be steady now! Even more steady than before!

Not only must we be steady, but we must also be more humble in front of our father. We cannot fail at the last moment.

※※※※※

one year later.

April 28th.

Palace.

The emperor has been bedridden for several days. His coma time is getting longer and longer, and his conscious time is getting shorter and shorter.

The imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau stayed by the emperor's side, consulting again and again and prescribing one prescription after another.

You can cure the disease, but you can’t save your life.

The old genius doctor Qi and the director and judge of the Imperial Hospital went in together to take the patient's pulse. When they came out, they all shook their heads, indicating that it would only be a matter of two days.

Now the palace is surrounded by people inside and outside.

The emperor's trusted old ministers, as well as the crown prince, the eldest princess and the fourth princess were summoned to the palace.

The emperor also knew that his time was running out, and the imperial edict to inherit the throne had already been written.

In the past two days, the queen, the prince, and the princess took turns to take care of him.

Everyone was in a trance and looked haggard.

The emperor has already given all the instructions, instructions and decrees he needed to give in the past few days.

The imperial edict has also been drafted.

At this moment he was unconscious and could only be kept alive by ginseng soup.

The eldest princess seemed to notice something and pulled the prince aside. "Father, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Or is there something that's been on your mind?"

The Crown Prince looked towards the northwest with a complicated expression. "A few days ago, the Governor of Ganning Road in the northwest submitted a memorial stating that the Western Rong were in chaos. Father must be concerned about the situation there."

So I was reluctant to swallow this anger.

If it were something else, the eldest princess could still offer some advice and think about how to help the emperor fulfill his wish.

But this matter concerns military and national affairs, and the princess could only sigh: "If only there were good news from the northwest at this moment--"

As soon as he finished speaking, a noise was heard in the distance.

Then, each voice became louder and louder until the Crown Prince and the Princess could hear clearly: "Northwest War Report: Civil strife in the Western Rong. The Western Rong King and the leaders of the three major tribes were killed in battle—"
