The wives of the concubines are empresses

When the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace heard her daughter say this, she readily agreed.

"Okay, but state affairs and your health are more important. If it's inconvenient, your mother won't learn."

Shangguan Wanjun smiled and said, "Yes, by the way, mother, why did you think of checking your son's pulse today?"

She remembered that she had only invited him a few days ago.

"Your mother has not seen any good news from your pregnancy and is a little worried about your health."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wanjun understood. So that's what it was.

"Mother, I am in good health. You and Mother need not worry. As for the issue of offspring, I will allow you to recuperate for two years. I am still too young to give birth. After I have recovered, I will definitely let you hold your grandson in your arms in a few years."

Hearing her daughter's words, the Empress Dowager Donggong reached out and patted her hand, her tone full of doting and understanding.

"Okay, I will listen to you. You said I'm still young, so why not wait a few years? From now on, I will prioritize my son's health."

As long as she is healthy, we will always have grandchildren. My daughter's health is the most important.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace looked at the three hot-blooded concubines.

"The emperor is young, and you, as his concubines, must put the emperor's health first. You must be careful about the matters in the boudoir and not hurt the emperor's body." She didn't know that her daughter had never had a real marriage with any of the concubines.

Right now, she is just a mother, a mother who loves and cares for her daughter.

The three concubines bowed and said, "Yes, we will follow the instructions of our mother."

Originally, the concubines only called the Queen Mother of the East Palace and the Queen Mother of the West Palace as Queen Mother, but Shangguan Wanjun felt that the royal family was different. Since they were the same concubines, she asked them to call her mother Queen Mother and her mother Concubine Mother as Concubine Mother.

The three concubines sighed in their hearts. They were not actually married to the emperor, but they would occasionally get some "benefits".

Considering that the emperor is now too young, they understand and care for him.

All three of them like the emperor, even love him, so naturally they cherish and love their wives.

Seeing the concubines reply, the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, we are all still young and have a long way to go."

As the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, she felt a little embarrassed to hear her daughter's concubines talk about this matter, but for the sake of her daughter's health, she still had to bite the bullet and remind the concubines.

The three nodded respectfully.

Seeing the memorial on the desk, the Empress Dowager Donggong smiled gently.

"Your Highness's idea is truly excellent. Firstly, it fosters relationships with the concubines. Secondly, it makes their lives less boring. Thirdly, it can also alleviate Your Highness's fatigue. It truly achieves multiple goals at one stroke."

Shangguan Wanjun smiled shyly: "Mother, thank you for the compliment."

"My queen mother has gone back to the palace today, you guys can continue with your work."

The early dynasty was not yet completely stable, and she, as the queen mother, might not be able to help, but she absolutely could not hold her daughter back, as she was already tired enough.

Shangguan Wanjun then stood up and said, "Mother, I will see you off."

The mother and daughter walked all the way to the door outside the imperial study.

"Okay, my son, please stay. Let's get busy." My daughter is diligent in her work and loves the people. I believe she will be a wise ruler, a wise ruler who is good to the people of the world.

Her husband was a mediocre person all his life, even cruel and promiscuous, but her daughter was a good person, at least ten or a hundred times better than her father.

Thinking of her husband who had passed away a few months ago, the Empress Dowager Donggong felt a surge of pride in her heart. She curled the corners of her lips slightly and looked up at the sky.

Late Emperor, you never thought that you would leave me first. This world belongs to his daughter. My daughter and I have always been the most honorable and noble women in the world. No one can compare to us.

After the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace left, Shangguan Wanjun continued to review memorials.

Seeing Concubine Wu's publicity style, she remembered what she had to do.

"Noble Concubine Wu."

Concubine Wu was startled and looked up: "Your Majesty, your husband is here."

"I have asked Concubine Kang to take charge of the affairs of the wounded soldiers in the barracks. You can discuss it with yourselves."

Concubine Wu - Xuanxuanfeng was stunned and looked at Concubine Kang - Su Kangqiao in confusion.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Shangguan Wanjun continued to review the memorials. Concubine Wu - Xuanchuanfeng and Concubine Kang - Su Kangqiao had begun to discuss the issue of the wounded soldiers, and finally Concubine Kang - Su Kangqiao came to a conclusion.

He looked at the emperor who was carefully reviewing the memorials and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I have already made a rule."

Shangguan Wanjun put down her red brush and looked up: "My beloved concubine, please tell me."

"I think we should find a place to stay for the wounded soldiers to do their work, and then set up a place for the wounded soldiers to live in the suburbs of Beijing to provide them with work.

As for what to do, it depends on your own conditions and interests, and it also depends on everyone's physical condition."

Seeing that he was clear and organized, Shangguan Wanjun nodded slightly.

"That's right, my beloved concubine, please come up with some specific rules and regulations. As for the General Wounded Soldiers Office, we will choose a place in the capital.

This is all in my name."

The wounded soldiers fight for the country and the people, and they deserve normal or even better treatment for the rest of their lives.

Otherwise, who would be willing to join the army and defend the country?

They sacrifice their own families for the sake of the country and their families.

If the Wounded Soldiers' Office were placed above the imperial court, it would be a considerable expense that the national treasury could not afford and the ministers would certainly be very dissatisfied.

But if she puts it under her own name and controls it as an empress, it can become her invisible army and can do many things in her daily life to help her govern the country better in the future.

Concubine Kang-Su Kangqiao bowed solemnly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Although he didn't understand the emperor's specific intentions, as long as it was good, it was fine.

After resolving this matter, Shangguan Wanjun watched Concubine Kang-Su Kangqiao leave.

After insisting on reviewing the memorials, she supported her head with her delicate arms and hands and rubbed it gently.

"Now that I have dealt with this memorial, it's time for me to go and rest."

The one serving the emperor that night was Concubine Bai - Jiang Ruobai. He looked at the beautiful emperor and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"What happened, my dear?"

"Your Majesty, they all have things to do, but I am idle." He was a little unwilling. Was he useless?

Shangguan Wanjun was a little puzzled: "Isn't it good to have some free time? Working is very tiring."

Especially if things are not done well, it will make you feel more tired and the tasks and responsibilities will be greater.

Baipin Jiang Ruobai was a little frustrated: "Your Majesty, is it because I am useless that you don't want to use me?"

Consort Wu, known as Xuanfeng, is in the military camp and holds a military post; Consort Wen, known as Bai Xuanyi, holds the Phoenix Seal and manages the harem; Consort De, known as Mu Wennian, holds an official post in the Ministry of Works; Consort Lu, known as Liu Haiming, and Consort Xuan, known as Song Xuanyi, are both Jingzhao Yin.

Concubine Ran - Wang Ran was sent to assist the county magistrate in management; General Nan Shaoan and General Anyong both held military positions in the barracks; Concubine Hua - Tang Yihua helped the emperor manage the farm; Lian Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu was also sent out to pick up Concubine Ran and the county magistrate, but he has not been assigned any tasks so far.
