Lu Li's worries did not subside until An Xiabai came back from outside the palace, as soon as he saw An Xiabai appear at the door of the imperial study, he immediately ran quickly in the direction where she was: "Queen, what is the situation, is that Jiang Yirui unwilling to teach him the knowledge of the competition, if he is unwilling, there are other famous families in the capital, as long as the queen is willing, even the knowledgeable courtiers of the previous dynasty can help teach." ”

An Xiabai couldn't help but laugh.

The existence of the competition is something they must conceal deeply, how can they release the news to the former dynasty? Now that the imperial court is newly established, it has not yet reached the time when the imperial court is completely stabilized, and the less people know about its existence, the better.

"Mrs. Jiang agreed to my request, and I plan to let Shuang'er send him to a private school tomorrow, so that I don't have to worry about what I hear about Shuang'er."

To this day, An Xiabai still remembers the scene of talking in his dreams after he was drunk.

Lu Li smiled back: "It's still the queen's smartness, this is indeed a way to kill two birds with one stone." ”

The two of them were standing at the door of the imperial study and talking, when they suddenly heard the voice of Xiaodong Xiaoxue calling not far away.

In a blink of an eye, I realized that it was Zhou who came over with Xiaodong Xiaoxue.

"Xiaodong Xiaoxue hasn't seen you for a while, I miss you so much, I clamored for my father and mother all day long, and I can't take them over to see."

During this period of time, Lu Li and An Xiabai have their own busyness, and they really don't have time to see Xiaoxue Xiaoxue, they know that the Zhou family likes these two children, and the Zhou family will take Xiaodong Xiaoxue very well, so they haven't worried, and now they know what it means to miss when they meet.

In the past, when they were in Nanhuai City, Xiaodong Xiaoxue and An Xiabai were the closest, so as soon as they met each other, An Xiabai subconsciously opened his arms to them.

Unexpectedly, Xiaodong Xiaoxue actually threw herself into Lu Li's arms.

An Xiabai looked at the three of them hugging each other with a complicated mood: "It seems that Xiaodong Xiaoxue doesn't like her mother anymore." ”

At this moment, the maid who was in charge of serving the two little princes also followed, and just saw Xiaodong Xiaoxue throwing herself into Lu Li's arms, and she was so frightened for a while that she fell to her knees directly to the ground.

"Please forgive your majesty!"

Lu Li looked at them inexplicably, and really couldn't understand why these two had to make such a big salute as soon as they looked at each other: "What are your crimes?" ”

"The slaves and maids didn't take a good look at the little prince, so the little prince disturbed the dragon body......."

Lu Li then remembered that his identity was unusual, there were too many rules in the palace, even if it was a father and son, it was also a relationship between a monarch and a minister, as an emperor, even if he hugged his own child, he had to abide by many rules...... Lu Li felt upset when he thought of the rules set by the previous dynasty.

As the master of the harem, An Xiabai should be in charge of this, she coughed lightly and waved her hand to make the two maids stand up.

"Your Majesty has always been close to the two little princes, where can there be such a thing as disturbing the dragon body? You two go and serve somewhere else, and don't come here without being told to do so. ”

The two maids resigned.

Even if the person left, the dissatisfaction in Lu Li's heart did not completely subside.

"These two people are too stupid, how can there be such two stupid people around Xiaodong Xiaoxue, let's find an excuse to send them to other places to do things, next time it's best to pick a few smart and clever people who will look at people's faces and wait."

An Xia Bai thought deeply: "I'll deal with this matter when I go back later." ”

An Xiabai has always been safe, so Lu Li is not worried that she will make mistakes.

When the couple was discussing things, Xiaodong Xiaoxue suddenly grabbed Lu Li's shirt: "Daddy, just now the two sisters said that there will be many people in our family in the future, and they will treat me as their own child like their mothers, is this true, will I have many other mothers in the future?" ”

Before Lu Li could figure out how to answer his question, the two children pouted, and many tears were accumulated in their eyes.

"But we only want a mother, it's enough to have a mother, it's okay for my father not to marry another mother......."

The tears of the two children were like a thin thread that strangled Lu Li's heart, and he hurriedly wiped their tears with a handkerchief, while persuading: "There will be no other mother, Daddy will only have one of your mothers." ”

"Daddy swears!"

Lu Li had no choice but to raise his hand.

Looking at the way the three of them spoke, An Xiabai only felt funny and felt it again.

She had never said anything like that to Xiaodong Xiaoxue, but these two children knew how to defend their mothers........

Zhou walked quickly to An Xiabai's side, smiled at her and said, "I also think Xiaodong Xiaoxue is right." ”

An Xiabai was really surprised this time, in fact, from the beginning to the present, she never thought of having a couple with Lu Li for the rest of her life, in this world, three wives and four concubines are common things, even if there is really a loving person who is monogamous, it is very rare, she would rather leave than let Lu Shu'er enter the door, just because Lu Shu'er is not a good person, and now she is really shocked to hear that the Zhou family is willing to support her.

If you don't allow your husband to take a concubine, if you put it in front, I am afraid that you will be treated as a jealous woman, and then abandoned by your husband's family.......

Compared with An Xiabai's shock, Zhou still looked casual.

She took it for granted.

"Back then, our Lu family lost power, Lu Li was sent to a small mountain village to barely leave a life, although he was taken care of in a small mountain village in those years, but he must have suffered a lot, you have been with him for so many years, since you were still in a small mountain village, you have been married to him since you were still in a small mountain village, life must not be easy, our Lu family owes you so much, how can you suffer a little grievance? I will never agree to this matter of concubines, and if he talks about it in the future, I will help you persuade you more. ”

Zhou has this heart, and An Xiabai is already very grateful.

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

While speaking, Lu Li had already coaxed the two children, and was holding Xiaodong Xiaoxue and walking towards them: "I saw you talking just now, muttering, what are you talking about?" ”

An Xiabai smiled and blinked: "It's just a whisper between women." ”

Although I didn't hear what they just said, Lu Li vaguely guessed something, recently there are rumors in the palace that he wants to take a concubine, and they all say that they have noses and eyes, presumably the Zhou family came to talk to them today, and chatted with An Xiabai, just for the matter of this concubine.

Lu Li secretly decided that he must keep his promise.

Early the next morning, Lu Li said his thoughts in front of the courtiers.

"I have said more than once that the matter of the concubine is not allowed to be discussed again, why do some people still insist on recruiting the harem, do you all think that I should be obsessed with beauty and waste the government like the previous emperor?"

Lu Li's anger stemmed from the newly sent books.

Several ministers fell to their knees in panic and said in a sincere voice: "The old ministers just hope that the royal family can prosper.......

"I know what you're worried about, it's just that I'm afraid that my prince won't be able to take on important responsibilities, hehe, I'm still young, the queen is still young, if you want to open up branches for the royal family, there will be opportunities in the future, don't rush for a while," Lu Li's gaze swept over the faces of the courtiers, and when he saw their different expressions, he sneered again, "Don't mention the matter of the harem in the future, if anyone mentions it again, I will punish him for a big crime of disrespect." ”

Other emperors were cultivated through the careful teaching of the Taifu, and they knew the so-called way of the emperor, but Lu Li was different, he was beaten down from horseback, and believed in the word life and death in this regard, although the courtiers hoped that he would accept the harem for various purposes, but they cherished their lives more.

Let's not talk about this anymore.

As soon as Lu Li's front foot went down, someone on the back foot passed the news to An Xia Bai's ears.

An Xiabai was surprised and delighted: "Your Majesty really said that?" ”

The chamberlain who came to report the news said with a smile: "Isn't it, Your Majesty's attitude under the court is tough, and all the civil and military officials have agreed, and no one should mention the matter of concubines in the future." ”

An Xiabai finally settled down: "That's good." ”

Lu Li knew what she was worried about, and wanted to accompany An Xia Bai more, so that she could feel her sincerity, but the folds handed over one after another, he didn't have time to talk to An Xia Bai at all, he could only keep rewarding, some time ago someone offered some rare Western gadgets back, Lu Li saw that the object was exquisitely made, and immediately ordered someone to send the object to the Anxia White Palace.

This was repeated until the Kunning Palace in Anxiabai was richly decorated.

An Xiabai has quite an opinion on this: "Your Majesty, have you heard of the rumors among the people? ”

Lu Li raised his eyebrows: "What rumors?" ”

"The people say that you spoil me, and the spoiled ones are about to be lawless, and there are even people with ulterior motives who compare me with Bao Xidaji, and also say that Your Majesty, you are a faint king, in the future, you should be restrained, and don't get anything to send to me."

Lu Li agreed sullenly.

It's not easy to be an emperor, and it's hard to have someone you like, but you can't be spoiled, you have to pay attention to proportion.......

"Actually, it's enough for Your Majesty to have this distraction," An Xiabai said with a smile, "I don't lack anything in the palace, and I still have a lot of property under my name, even if I want something, I can immediately let people buy it back from outside the palace, Your Majesty doesn't need to send it to me every time you see a fun little object." ”

Lu Li felt very aggrieved, he was just a little better than his wife: "I just want to compensate you, you have followed me all these years and suffered so much......"

An Xia Bai stood up and dropped a soft kiss on his cheek.

"Your Majesty can think of me, and I will be satisfied."

The two talked together for a while, and then remembered the subject until they had enough intimacy.

An Xiabai sat up: "By the way, it seems that I haven't heard the news of Qisai for a while, and I don't know how he has been doing with Jiang Yirui during this time. ”

As soon as the words fell, the white man of Anxia had already walked out the door.
