Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby

No, she had tried it before and found out that not only she was not favored, but the other concubines were not favored either. This makes sense.

But yesterday?

Could it be that the marks on Concubine Yi's neck were intentional, displayed before her eyes? This was undoubtedly the case. Concubine Yi, such a dull woman, must have been instigated by the two palace maids beside her, who had come to provoke her, hoping to make her anxious and make a mistake, thus earning the Emperor's dislike. This way, they could monopolize his favor. What a sinister plot.

Thinking of this, Yan Ruju's disgust towards Concubine Yi grew even stronger. When they were still in the boudoir, people in the capital compared the two of them. Before she met her, she really thought the other person was an important figure. Unexpectedly, she was a brainless idiot. How could she be compared with herself? If she could step on Concubine Yi once, she could step on her every time.

Thinking of this, Yan Ruju regained her spirits and looked at the emperor with sad eyes.

"It was my fault for speaking carelessly. I will have my father secretly seek out a renowned physician to cure the Emperor's illness. Your Majesty is a true dragon emperor, blessed by Heaven. He will surely enjoy good health and have many offspring."

Leng Qingyi was almost choked by Yan Ruju's words. If her father knew about it, it would be equivalent to everyone knowing it.

"Don't bother me, my beloved concubine. I've gotten much better these days thanks to the careful care of the imperial physician. It's just that I can't help myself. Next time I travel, I'll definitely visit you. Then you'll become my true woman, and you'll definitely give birth to many more princes and princesses for me."

"really?"

"Of course, I am the emperor and my words are golden. I am only afraid that I will disappoint the concubine."

"Your Majesty, please don't joke with me. I only feel sorry for you. I am extremely happy that you are safe and well, and I will not feel disappointed at all. I also hope to give birth to a prince for you." After she finished speaking, Yan Ruju suddenly realized that her words were a little inappropriate, and her face turned slightly red.

"Then I will take advantage of your good wishes, Imperial Concubine. I think if I can recuperate for a while, the concubines in the harem will no longer be anxious."

Leng Qingyi's words were tentative. She felt that with the influence of Yan Ruju and the Duke of Zhenguo in the harem, they knew the matter very clearly.

She understood when she saw the joyful expression on Yan Ruju's face turn a little ugly.

As expected, Zhongli Yuan had never touched any of the women in the harem.

Yan Ruju, who was immersed in joy just now, calmed down all of a sudden as if a large basin of ice water was poured on her.

Yes, he is the emperor, and he has three thousand beauties in his harem. He has not touched those women now because he is ill. When he recovers, he will surely favor them one by one. Then his situation will be the same as it is now.

No, she couldn't just sit there and wait for death. She had to think of a way. It would have been fine if she didn't know the reason before, but now that she knew the reason, she naturally had to seize the opportunity to be the first to give birth to the prince. Then she could let her father use some power in the court, and then she would get the position of queen and crown prince.

In comparison, the current emperor is several years younger than that man and looks more handsome. Even though there are more women around him, she thinks she can deal with those women with her own means. Why take a risky tactic when she can take a safe path?

What's more, the emperor is the legitimate heir. If she can give birth to a prince in the future, the father's strength will surely help her child seize the throne.

It's hard to say whether this unconventional approach will succeed. Even if it does, how can she, the concubine of the previous emperor, be with him legitimately? Although that man made such promises to her, it was probably because he wanted to win over her father for the throne. How sincere can one be with someone he has only met a few times?

It seems that after learning about the meeting with his father, the plan has to be put on hold and he will wait and see before making a decision.

If she could get pregnant with the emperor's heir, she would ask her father to cut off all ties with that man, and also help the emperor get rid of that man to clear the way for his own son.

Thinking of this, Yan Ruju instantly felt full of energy. She must give birth to a prince before anyone else.

"Your Majesty, this matter concerns your reputation, so it's best not to let too many people know. If you feel better, feel free to come to my palace for an experiment. I will definitely keep this secret."

"By the way, please don't let your father know about this. I am also afraid of shaking the foundation of the country. I am still young and there is no need to rush."

"The minister and concubine follow the order."

Watching

Yan Ruju, the handsome man in front of her who explained everything to her in a friendly manner, believed that she still had some weight in the emperor's heart.

"Your Majesty, I have added several slices of century-old ginseng to this black chicken soup. It will be of great benefit to your dragon body. Please try it and see if it suits your taste."

"My beloved concubine is thoughtful."

Of course he accepted all the food and directly picked up the bowl of soup and brought it to his mouth. He smelled it and found nothing unusual, so he finished the whole bowl of soup in two or three mouthfuls.

Seeing that the emperor gave her so much face this time, Yan Ruju became more certain of her guess.

The emperor must have her in his heart, and his previous indifference and alienation must have been for show.

After all, there were always other people around when they were together in the past, but today it was just the two of them, so the emperor was so kind to her.

"My beloved concubine, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. I still have official business to attend to."

"It was my fault that I delayed the emperor's affairs. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"It's okay, step back."

Yan Ruju left with a rosy face. When she was about to leave, she saw Zhongli Yuan and looked him up and down provocatively before leaving the Qinzheng Hall.

Zhongli Yuan felt a little puzzled by the unfriendly gaze. He must have been mistaken. How could someone as gentle and virtuous as the imperial concubine be hostile to her?

Seeing Yan Ruju leave, Zhongli Yuan hurried in to ask what his concubine had said.

"Oh, you care so much about your concubine, why haven't you favored her yet?"

Zhong Liyuan's face flushed immediately when he was asked such a direct question.

"How can you, a woman, be so shameless?"

"What's wrong with a woman? Can't a woman say the word favor?"

"You...are so shameless."

"Oh, it's hard to achieve great things if you're petty. No wonder you feel so frustrated as an emperor. Have you forgotten how you grew up? You've only had a few days' worth of food, and you're already acting like a noble family."

"you..."

"What are you talking about? It's okay if you don't answer. I'll verify it myself. I'm not like you. After becoming the emperor, why bother with all the red tape instead of focusing on governing the country? Your people haven't even had enough to eat, and you're still thinking about shame. Survival is a problem, and you're still thinking about other things. How irresponsible."

It was so careless. When she was doing the mission in this small world, the system only asked her to help this poor villain become strong. She thought that becoming strong meant studying, practicing martial arts, and making some connections for him.

I didn't expect this guy to become stupid from reading too much.
