The wives of the concubines are empresses

Chapter 72: Women Suffer Childbirth

After receiving the notice from Concubine Wen, all the palaces and halls echoed the emperor's order and summoned the eunuchs in their palaces to pass on the message.

Defei - Mu Wennian looked at the huge group of eunuchs and calmed her mind.

"Everyone has received the news by now, right? The Emperor has decreed that eunuchs can marry. This is a kind of consideration for everyone. I have no objection to such matters, but if anyone is willing to marry, they should be prepared. They must not abandon their wives and tarnish the reputation of our palace.

The palace has its own rules. It's not a place for you to do whatever you want. Do you understand?"

The eunuchs bowed respectfully and said, "I understand."

After Cejun finished his lecture, Mo Youyan asked them all to leave.

Shuai Changzhao looked at his own concubine and said, "Concubine, what do you think the emperor means by this action?"

De Fei Mu Wennian shook her head: "I don't know either. Maybe I pity them."

After spending these days together, he has gained some understanding of the emperor.

He acted decisively and without delay, was affectionate and righteous, and respected the elderly and loved the young. I'm afraid it was really as he said, that he was showing pity to the eunuchs.

Just as the eunuch's marriage incident happened, the knee pad incident also occurred.

Defei - Mu Wennian looked at the eunuchs in the palace of Concubine Wen.

"What does the emperor mean?"

The young eunuch bowed slightly and said, "Yes, Lord Ouhe came to the palace personally to inform us."

Defei Mu Wennian glanced at Mo Youyan, and saw that the young eunuch had a few more gold leaves in his hand.

"I thank Concubine De for your reward."

Concubine De-Mu Wennian waved her hand, signaling him to leave.

The young eunuch bowed respectfully and said, "I will take my leave."

Minglan and the others had already put on soft knee pads, and Muxiang even walked around to try them out.

"It feels pretty good." Her emperor is so wise.

Minglan's face lit up with joy: "From now on, my knees will feel much better."

The longer I stay with the emperor, the more I realize how affectionate and loyal he is.

While Shangguan Wanjun was studying the knee pads, she had already processed thirty memorials.

Seeing the master rubbing his forehead, Liuli walked over.

"Your Majesty, let me help you press it." Being an emperor is really not easy. He has to read countless memorials every day. She feels sorry for her master.

"That's fine, thank you for your hard work, Fairy Liuli."

When Liuli heard the word "little fairy", her face turned red.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. This is all our job." As servants, it is their duty to take good care of their masters.

After massaging Liuli for a while, Shangguan Wanjun felt refreshed.

"Our Liuli is really amazing. Her hands are getting stronger and stronger, and her strength is getting more and more stable." She was praising sincerely.

Hearing the praise, Liuli blushed again.

Ouhe brought an account book and Shangguan Wanjun glanced through it.

“Yes, the revenue is good.”

We also have to thank those corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen who made "contributions". I wonder how they are doing now.

Shangguan Wanjun was in a very good mood when she thought about the abundance of her private treasury.

"Youyou, go to the imperial kitchen and ask someone to make some cakes and drinks. I'm hungry." Eat when you are hungry. Only when you are full will you have the strength to handle state affairs.

She wanted to be a diligent and responsible emperor, but before that, she had to take good care of herself.

I think yoga and aerobics should be put on the agenda. After all, the body is the capital of revolution.

Shangguan Wanjun drank the refreshing iced honey water and was in a very good mood.

"This Guanghan cake tastes fragrant, glutinous and soft, it's really good. Come, Minglan, Liucheng, and the rest of you come and try it." Happiness is better shared with others than to enjoy it alone. Sometimes sharing delicious food is also a small pleasure.

Guanghan cake was described in the Song Dynasty's "Shan Jia Qing Gong". The text mentioned that it tastes great when paired with taro paste.

Minglan ate a small piece, smiled happily and nodded.

"Your Majesty, these pastries are really good." Following the emperor, she has eaten no less than ten kinds of palace pastries.

Liu Cheng pursed his lips and smiled: "Our master is the best at eating, comparable to a gourmet."

Shangguan Wanjun chuckled: "When it comes to eating, I guarantee that no one in the harem can compare to me."

What a joke, she is from the future.

However, the palace delicacies, cakes and drinks were no less than those in her previous life.

Couhe agreed: "Your Majesty is right."

After all, she had never heard of delicacies like hot pot and Bobo chicken, so only her master could come up with them.

As Youyou ate, her face turned pale and twisted, and she even covered her stomach.

"Youyou, what's wrong with you?" Shangguan Wanjun was a little worried.

Youyou shook her head: "I don't know, my stomach suddenly started to hurt."

Liuli was horrified when she heard this: "Did he eat something bad?"

I've never seen her in so much pain before.

Shangguan Wanjun frowned: "Could it be my period?"

Liuli was shocked: "That's it, you just drank the ice one."

Shangguan Wanjun heard this and quickly ordered Liuli: "Check her out quickly, and tell me if it's true."

Liuli Fu Shen: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Liuli helped Youyou to the side hall to check and found that her period had indeed come.

"Youyou, this is your first time, right?"

Youyou's face twisted in pain: "Well... I've never been here before."

Is menstruation so painful?

So can she choose not to?

Oooooh, it hurts so much.

Now she finally experienced the pain of the emperor's menstruation, but her emperor had to deal with state affairs while he had his menstruation.

Shangguan Wanjun lost interest in eating, and when she saw Liuli coming out, she hurriedly asked.

"how?"

Liuli bowed and said, "Your Majesty, my period has really come."

"Then you go take care of her today. Give her some brown sugar water to drink, and put a hand warmer on her stomach to prevent her from getting cold."

Liuli was surprised. Youyou was just a palace maid. Was it worth the emperor mobilizing such a large force?

Seeing that she was still standing there in a daze, Shangguan Wanjun frowned slightly.

"Go quickly."

"Ah... yes, I'll go right away." The emperor is so nice to Youyou.

Aunt Cheng came over to add more tea: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it's a good thing that the girl is here."

Shangguan Wanjun pouted and complained, "Forget it. Every time I come here, I have to torment myself. I have to come here twelve times a year. That would add up to a month. It's normal to only have eleven months a year."

This thing is annoying and painful when it comes, and it's scary when it doesn't come. It's really annoying.

Aunt Cheng sighed: "There's nothing we can do about it. Only when a woman has this does it prove she can get married and have children."

Shangguan Wanjun gets a headache when it comes to having children.

She has seventeen concubines. How can she manage this? If she gives birth to one every year, it will take seventeen years. Oh my God.

She still remembered Yin Lihua from the Eastern Han Dynasty, who gave birth to children too frequently and did not take good care of herself, which eventually led to her early death.

And that person, Zhu Di's Empress Xu, gave birth to ten sons, but three of them died young.

This is love, but also a deeply burdened love that caused her to die early.

But the main problem is not that there are too many children, but that the intervals between births are too short, coupled with the constant travel and lack of rest for the body.

She had to pay attention to this, she didn't want to live another twenty years. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was imperative to exercise.

In the past few days, Shangguan Wanjun would sit in meditation for two quarters of an hour every day without distraction, and then get up to practice yoga for two quarters, with warm-up exercises beforehand, saying that it was to exercise the body and strengthen the body.
