What she hates the most is that Jiang Li follows the identity of the imperial sister to do some transgressive things all day long, and he hates the emperor's conniving attitude even more, but the emperor is willing to spoil Jiang Li, even if she is the queen, she has no right to interfere.

It would be nice if she could have a concubine left, the queen thought, but she has not come out of anything for so many years, is it because of her own physical problems?

He asked the imperial doctor to ask for a pulse many times, and the imperial doctor said that the queen was in good health, and she was in her prime, as long as she took care of it and drank some fetal medicine, there would be good news, but although the words were good, her stomach still did not move at all.

In order to consolidate her position, of course, the queen needs to make some efforts, and Bai Shao, the palace maid beside her, suggested that the queen inherit one from the clan and raise it under her own name first.

In this way, regardless of whether it is biological or not, this child is a legitimate concubine, and if something happens in the future, this child can also become the queen's dependence.

Therefore, the queen did not continue to argue with the emperor on Jiang Li's matter, but changed the conversation and said to the emperor that she was very lonely in Fengzao Palace alone, and hoped to raise a child.

Passing on an adopted son is a big deal, and the queen is just here to test the emperor's meaning today.

I saw the emperor slowly playing with a tribute orange, and then asked the queen: "I have been on the throne for less than ten years, and you and I are still young, so I am not in a hurry about the matter of the heirs for the time being." ”

"But the concubine is the queen, and if she doesn't have a concubine for a day, it will make the government and the opposition talk about it, and the concubine is also uneasy, and I hope the emperor can agree to the concubine's request." The queen said eagerly, saying that the son is more expensive than the mother, and she has never had a child, so the queen's position is unstable.

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, the queen thought that the emperor was thinking about it, so she continued: "The child of the concubine's younger brother is smart and very cute, you have seen it before, and he personally gave it a name, and he is almost ten years old this year, so it is better to ......." ”

The queen's family is illustrious, and her younger brother is married to the daughter of the Taifu, who also used to be the emperor's teacher and was born noble, and it is justifiable for such a child to pass on to herself.

More importantly, in the future, he will be worthy of the position of prince.

The little abacus in the queen's heart crackled, and she thought that the emperor had no reason to refuse her.

"I am now at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the queen is so concerned about the affairs of the heirs, I'm afraid there is something wrong." Although the emperor was laughing, what he said made the queen's heart cold.

She quickly knelt down and said that she was definitely not what the emperor thought, she just really wanted a child.

The queen knelt on the ground tremblingly, but the emperor just peeled the orange and sat on the floor to watch her kneel, without the emperor's permission, she didn't dare to get up.

At this time, the little eunuch outside preached: "Concubine Niangniang has arrived." ”

Concubine Shu dressed up and walked into the hall, and couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw the queen kneeling on the ground and embarrassed.

Although this queen mother is from a prominent background, her mind is far from her family background, and she often does things that make the emperor unhappy.

"Yo, I didn't expect the queen to be talking to the emperor, the concubine will come later." Concubine Shu seemed to be planning to retire, but the emperor took Concubine Shu's hand, put the orange in the palm of Concubine Shu's hand, and motioned her to be by her side.

He looked at the queen kneeling on the ground: "Go back, don't mention this matter in the future." ”

The queen stood up from the ground very reluctantly, and then glared at Concubine Shu angrily, although Concubine Shu looked sincerely frightened, but the trace of schadenfreude flashing in her eyes was clearly seen by the queen.

After the queen left, Concubine Shu said: "Even if the emperor annoys the queen, he shouldn't let the mother let her kneel when the concubine comes in." ”

She broke the orange, and then carefully removed all the white silk threads on it little by little before putting it back in the emperor's hands.

"What do you think of this kid Yi'er?" The emperor asked.

Concubine Shu smiled, but she was already thinking about how she could answer more decently, everyone who accompanied the emperor was like this, and before saying another word, she had to think about it a thousand times in her own psychology.

She said: "The concubine thinks it is very good, mainly because the eldest princess has a good upbringing. ”

"What about Lu Cancan?" The emperor remembered that Lu Cancan had seen her a few times when she was a child, but after she grew into a big girl, he never called her.

Concubine Shu guessed what the emperor meant, and replied ambiguously: "The concubine thinks that Miss Lu is naturally very good, and Lord Lu and Princess Gruli are very distressed about this pearl in the palm of their hands." ”

Yes, although Lu Cancan is good, she is the princess of the Moon Kingdom.

Grully married Lu Pingyao, which can be regarded as a peace between the two countries, and the relationship between the Moon Kingdom and her own country has indeed eased a lot in recent years, but the existence of the Moon Country has always been a matter that worries the emperor.

There is no eternal peace in this world.

Gruli is just a princess, but the Moon Country has also been in turmoil recently, and what the situation will be in the future needs to be carefully considered.

The emperor has his own thoughts, and Concubine Shu looked at the emperor's expression of thinking about the problem, and guessed something in her heart.

After coming out of the palace, Concubine Shu asked Cui He beside her, but she found out why the forbidden army left the city a few days ago?

"The forbidden army is very tight-mouthed, and the slaves and maids can't inquire too much, but they inquired about some things outside the palace, and I heard that it seems to be related to the noble daughter of the Lu family and a daughter of Zhizhou."

Concubine Shu nodded, they waited patiently first, to see what the emperor planned for this Lu Cancan, Concubine Shu had been with the emperor for many years, and she guessed the emperor's mind very thoroughly, and he could see that the emperor was hesitating now.

Also, although Lu Cancan is indeed a valuable identity and is a girl that Lin Yi likes, the four words "red face and trouble" have been passed down for thousands of years.

If she can become Lin Yi's help, it may be fine, but if she becomes Lin Yi's resistance, the emperor is afraid that he will not be able to tolerate her.

Concubine Shu sighed, although she hated the queen, there was one thing they had in common, that is, they both wanted a child.

But except for the princess who got it when the emperor was still the prince, there were no other children in the palace, and none of the concubines in the palace came out.

"The emperor has always been busy with court politics, and the number of times he comes to the harem is not much, so it is inevitable that the heirs will be thin, Niangniang must not be in a hurry, the slave believes that Niangniang is a blessed person and will definitely have children." Cuihe saw that Concubine Shu's mind was depressed, and quickly flattered her.

Concubine Shu thinks about it, except for the queen, she has the highest position in the entire harem, and she has been favored for many years, relying on the emperor's favor, no one can shake her status.
