concubine on top

"The concubine understands that Guozuo is above everything else."

Shen Yanchuan said so.

Of course he understands.

When he first entered the palace, the queen mother repeatedly told him to be careful with the emperor.There is no way to make the emperor conceive and have a child. It is the worst strategy to make sure that the emperor is really muddy and unable to support the wall—any mother is unwilling to let a child who is already sad about her own body abnormality To go through the pain and risk of childbirth, especially if the child is a virgin.

Therefore, everything has been settled from the very beginning, and what is said right now is false.

It's just that when he resolutely assured the queen mother, he didn't expect that one day he would fall in love with that ineffective little emperor.

Time has passed, and the changes in the relationship between the two are obvious to the Empress Dowager. Now she is giving gifts and inviting him to eat, obviously to appease him, expressing that the child will not affect the little emperor's feelings for him, and at the same time reminding him to do it for the empress dowager. Hong thought about it, don't let the little emperor get pregnant on the spur of the moment.

In fact, it goes without saying, because he is more afraid of hurting the little emperor than anyone else. Ever since the little emperor was made to cry by a few jokes from him that night, he has been a hundred times more careful in bed, and he has devoted himself to keeping the little emperor from being hurt. any physical or mental suffering.

And the queen mother is the mother of his benefactor and the mother of his beloved, what position does he have to refuse the other party's reasonable request?After hearing Shen Yanchuan's answer, the Empress Dowager seemed to be relieved or relieved, and gave him many things to take back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation; and after Shen Yanchuan returned, she lived as before, and never told anyone about it. start this conversation.

On the other side of Gongxue, everything was done in a lively and orderly manner.

Although every once in a while a group of ladies who can't keep up with their brains or who can't bear the hardships in the experience of being a court lady are invited out of the palace, but because of this, the palace academy gathers the most talented women in the entire capital, Many of them are more capable and courageous than ordinary men.

In this regard, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty felt gratified—it seemed that the emperor valued virtue and talent far more than appearance, which was a sign of the prosperity of the dynasty.

On the day when the first batch of female officials took office, the little emperor went to the harem in person, and gave seals to everyone just like the previous dynasty received newly promoted officials. In the harem, these female officials will point out that you and Concubine An are troubled in the future, so please take care of me."

"Look at what you said." The Empress Dowager took the roster with a slight smile, "Can't I spare a few more trips to the harem? No matter what, I still have to follow your heart."

The little emperor looked left and right, and saw that there were no outsiders in the room. The aunt who was serving her had seen her growing up, so she squeezed into the queen mother's side and acted like a spoiled child: "All state affairs are waiting for me to take care of them, and the queen mother will help me a little bit." Please do me a favor, I will inspect it myself in the future."

The Empress Dowager turned her head to look at him, saw the childhood expression on his youthful face, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, Aijia believes that the emperor has a sense of propriety."

At this moment, she knew that it would be beneficial to take a step back, and persecution would only increase her son's pain.

"Then I thank the Queen Mother here." The little emperor turned his head and shouted, "Little Fuzi! Bring in all the gifts for the Queen Mother and Concubine An!"

"Yo, that's quite a lot." The queen mother watched the eunuchs carry two big boxes into the door, and teased, "If the Ai family refused to agree to it, wouldn't this gift be worth the Ai family's share?"

"That's not enough." The little emperor grinned, showing his white teeth, "It's just that the name will be changed to bribe."

After making the Queen Mother happy, the little emperor joyfully returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and had dinner with Shen Yanchuan.

The dinner was snail noodles, which smelled sour in the dining room. The little emperor was considerate of the palace people and asked them to go outside to breathe. Shen Yanchuan was used to eating it, so he didn't feel the smell anymore, and he still felt happy.

After eating, the little emperor burped, leaned his head back in the armchair, and put one hand on Shen Yanchuan's shoulder: "The female officials are all taking office today, and they will handle all the affairs of the harem from now on. You can relax La."

Shen Yanchuan also leaned back in the armchair, turned to look at him: "Then the concubine is a vegetarian?"

"No." The little emperor fell asleep, closed his eyes and said in a drawn out voice, "I will arrange other things for you."

"What's the matter?" The little emperor thought of the big event he was about to do, and was secretly happy in his heart, but he wanted to make a fool of himself with Shen Yanchuan, so he kept laughing and didn't answer directly. Instead, he got up and staggered and sat on Shen Yanchuan's lap Going up, rubbing the other party's handsome face: "You first carry me into the room."

Shen Yanchuan immediately understood: Oh, it's the housekeeper.

The two lay down on the bed, and the little emperor hugged Shen Yanchuan's arm and whispered, "I'm tired these past few months."

Shen Yanchuan interjected, "Because you're worried about Gong Xue?"

"No, that's not tiring. What I'm tired of is that the empress dowager always reminds me that I have to have a child." The little emperor turned over and put his foot on Shen Yanchuan's lap, "Hey, did the empress dowager say anything to you?" ah?"

"I've said it." Shen Yanchuan spoke bluntly, explaining the empress dowager's meaning concisely.

"Then what do you say?"

"I said, Guozuo is important."

The little emperor lowered his head and sniffed Shen Yanchuan's hair, and agreed: "Well, I can't fault it."

Feeling the little emperor's breath on the skin of his head, Shen Yanchuan's heart moved slightly, and a gloomy light flashed in his eyes: "Because... that's exactly what I thought."

The little emperor's narrowed eyes suddenly widened: "What do you mean by that?"

Shen Yanchuan knew that he didn't like to hear these words, but he had to say them sooner or later, so he hardened his heart and analyzed: "There is no child in the clan to adopt, if you randomly find a child with the blood of the Tian family, there will only be chaos in the court. And right now The situation cannot be said to be completely clear, if you are pregnant, you will not be able to concentrate on government affairs, it will be an opportunity for the bad guys to take advantage of, so the Empress Dowager must have an heir, only the emperor is self-reliant, I can't help."

Seeing his calm appearance, the little emperor was stunned for a while in disbelief: "Is this really what you think? Tell the truth, did the queen mother force you to do this?"

Shen Yanchuan said without hesitation: "No one is forcing you."

"You!" The little emperor sat up, panted a few times because he was so angry, and said incoherently, "You, have you never thought that I don't want to have children with others? Don't you feel sorry for me at all? If I like someone else, what will you do?"

A series of questions disturbed Shen Yanchuan's mind.

thought about it.Distressed.helpless.These are true answers, but there is no need to say them.

And he didn't want to choose the little emperor's favorite words to coax people - coaxing people can't change the facts, it can only make people hopeful, and further disappointed.So he has nothing to say.

Regarding Shen Yanchuan's silence, the little emperor thought it was indifferent.A feeling of being abandoned emerged spontaneously in his heart, he immediately jumped out of bed, put on his shoes angrily, and left without looking back: "Okay, I'll be self-reliant now!"
