The beauty who wears fast has many babies

Chapter 22 World 1: Wet Nurse

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's true that women have the most vicious hearts!" Wu Li watched this scene while eating melon seeds. It's great to have a holographic projector. It's like watching a TV series every day.

Wu Li smiled evilly, thinking that it was time to add some fun to the dull harem life.

"System, find a way to tell Concubine Su that there's something wrong with the supplies Concubine Xue sent. Isn't she managing the harem on my behalf now?"

[Host, 10 points! ]

"Okay, do it cleanly." Wu Li rolled his eyes.

【Guaranteed to leave no trace! 】

Ever since the system was introduced, Wu Li has become even lazier and is too lazy to even assign people to do the work.

"That's not right. Aren't there some concubines who were pregnant before? Then Concubine Xue's medicine won't work." Wu Li suddenly seemed to remember something.

[This is only after long-term use, and the effect will fade over time. However, Concubine Xue will send new ones to each palace several times a year.]

"That's not entirely the emperor's fault."

[Yes, Zhou Chongli just has some asthenospermia and isn't too interested in sex. He's not completely infertile.]

Wu Li nodded and said, "That's right. With so many concubines, if you cast a wide net, there will always be some who will be caught."

"Then, regarding the deformed children mentioned earlier, besides being caused by the drugs taken by the concubines, could they also be affected by the drugs given by Concubine Xue?"

Yes, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

"Tsk, this trick is really amazing."

"This Concubine Xue is so unlucky. The emperor has asthenospermia and Chinese medicine makes it difficult for others to get pregnant, but she can't."

[That's because the Emperor never touched her.]

"Ah?! Why?" Wu Li even slowed down his movements in cracking melon seeds.

[Because Concubine Xue is backed by the Queen Mother, her power cannot be underestimated.]

"So that's how it is. Being an emperor is really not easy. You have to be on guard against your own mother too." Wu Li clicked his tongue and shook his head.

[Of course, Zhou Chongli always used drugs to make the concubines think they were sleeping with him.]

"So he didn't touch these concubines?" Wu Li became excited when he heard that.

[He did touch her. After all, he still longed to be a father. He just wasn't interested in sex. You could think of it as him being tired from a long day at work and wanting to just sleep and not do anything else.]

"Oh." Bai was excited.

But think about it, as an emperor, how could he not touch these concubines? It's not like he's impotent.

[He didn't touch some concubines, such as Concubine Liu, Concubine Yu, Concubine Liu, and twelve others.]

"Huh? Why?" Wu Li asked in confusion.

[On the one hand, they admire their talents and cherish their talent; on the other hand, the aristocratic families behind them do not allow them to have children, at least not now.]

"So he wants me to be the queen."

"interesting."

"In that case, I will help him."

"The thought of building the Great Zhou into a powerful nation that resonates with the world makes me excited."

When he thought of this, Wu Li became interested.

"Xiuhong, accompany me for a walk in the Imperial Garden." Wu Li put down the melon seeds and stood up.

"Yes."

Xiuhong supported Wuli and asked softly, "Your Majesty, please bring a few more servants to serve you."

"That's fine. The weather is nice today, perfect for a picnic." Wu Li nodded.

Immediately, Xiuhong arranged for the young palace maid to go down and prepare, and she herself helped Wuli walk towards the sedan chair.

At that time, in the Queen Mother's palace.

"Your Majesty, this is the wet nurse we invited for the little prince." After the nanny respectfully reported to the empress dowager, she led the woman standing beside her to the empress dowager.

"I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager!" the woman said, bowing.

The Queen Mother raised her eyes slightly and looked at the woman in front of her. She saw that she had a pretty face and a gentle temperament. She nodded secretly in her heart and thought that this wet nurse looked pretty good.

"Get up." The Queen Mother said softly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The woman stood up, still with her head lowered, not daring to look directly at the Empress Dowager.

"She looks quite decent. I heard that your family has been a scholarly family in Jiangnan for generations, and the girls in your family are all very intelligent. Is this true?" The Queen Mother asked casually, turning the Buddhist beads in her hand.

"Your Majesty, my family has been a family of scholars for generations, but I am dull and have not learned much." The woman answered respectfully.

"That's all fine, as long as you can take good care of the little prince." The Queen Mother put down the Buddhist beads in her hand and looked at the woman sharply. "I hope you can do your best and don't let me down."

"I will do my best to live up to the trust of the Empress Dowager." The woman bowed again, saying that she would take good care of the little prince.

The Queen Mother nodded and said with satisfaction, "Go down."

The woman took her leave, leaving the Queen Mother and the nanny to continue discussing the little prince's affairs.

"It looks good. Send someone to serve him well and keep a close eye on him." The Queen Mother instructed.

Being a prince's wet nurse means giving up your own child. You can't be by his side, so it's inevitable that he will have other thoughts, so you need to use both kindness and strictness.

"I see that Concubine Li's belly is getting bigger and bigger. She should be giving birth in a few days."

"Yes, that servant girl with a big belly is frightening just by looking at her," said the nanny.

"Have you arranged everything for the midwife?" the Queen Mother asked, stopping what she was doing.

"It's all arranged. They're all veterans."

"Tell them to protect the youngster if absolutely necessary." The Queen Mother continued, "I will go and pray for the little grandson again."

"Yes." The nanny supported the empress dowager and walked towards the Buddhist hall.

Soon, the matter reached the ears of the emperor.

"Wet nurse?"

Zhou Chongli looked up from the pile of memorials in front of him and asked in confusion.

"Yes, according to the eunuch who delivered the message, the Empress Dowager sent someone to find this wet nurse when Concubine Li became pregnant with the little prince." Eunuch Li replied.

"It was my negligence." Zhou Chongli put down the brush in his hand.

"Tell someone to find a new wet nurse. We need to know her background and preferably one without any worries." Zhou Chongli ordered.

"Yes, but how should we explain this to the Empress Dowager?" Eunuch Li hesitated.

Zhou Chongli looked at Eunuch Li with a cold gaze: "How else can you explain it? Just tell her that the previous wet nurse's child is dying."

His tone was cold and decisive, as if he didn't care at all about the question.

Eunuch Li felt a pang of nervousness in his heart, but he still nodded respectfully.

He knew the emperor's temper and methods very well and did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

However, he asked with some concern: "What about this child?"

Zhou Chongli was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Have someone do it beautifully, don't really hurt the child, just scare them away."

After saying this, he lowered his head and continued to review the memorials, leaving Eunuch Li standing there, sighing secretly.

Eunuch Li knew that this matter would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Empress Dowager, but he could only obey the Emperor's orders.

After all, in the palace, power is the most important thing, and the emperor's intentions are the most important.
