When Zhang Shusheng returned to the palace, it was already bustling.

Lu Yunyan and He Ning, who were sisters, did not go out, chatting there with Fu Huiyu, and when they saw Zhang Shusheng coming back, Fu Huiyu suddenly smiled.

"How's your body? Has it been diagnosed? ”

Zhang Shusheng asked with concern, the question of the heir has been delayed for a long time, because the civilization in his body is developing rapidly, and his cultivation is progressing smoothly, and his cultivation at this time has already entered the planetary level.

However, his cultivation has stagnated, and he is still some distance away from the stars, but compared to ordinary people, he is already a god, with the physique of a god and god-like powers.

The cultivation is not moving forward, but the fertility problem has finally recovered, but I didn't expect the surprise to come so quickly.

"Today, my sister felt a little uncomfortable and retched several times, my sister and I looked at it and asked some details, and we estimated that I might be pregnant."

He Ning thoughtfully brought over a cup of tea.

"I don't know, I haven't checked yet, but it's very similar to what my mom said about pregnancy. I didn't even say anything about my mother, for fear that I would embarrass the royal family if I didn't get pregnant. ”

Fu Huiyu was a little embarrassed, before she could check it, the second sister told her husband that she was pregnant, and she was quite nervous, but thinking about the characteristics of pregnancy, she was still very sure.

Drowsiness, irregularities, poor appetite and, most crucially, postponement of menstruation.

"I'm afraid my sister is really pregnant."

He Ning said enviously, a trace of melancholy flashed between her eyebrows, Fu Huiyu was the last to enter the door, but she was the first to conceive a child, if you talk about the things that usually serve Zhang Shusheng, the three women are scrambling, and it is not once or twice that they are slept together, with Zhang Shusheng's physique, almost every time the three women can enjoy his essence.

I didn't get pregnant with my eldest sister, but I was pregnant with my sister.

Lu Yunyan was also envious, and even had a trace of jealousy and self-pity.

Her job is the busiest of the three sisters, perhaps to alleviate her guilt of not having children by working hard to maintain the royal glory on behalf of the royal family.

Her pressure is also the greatest, the first thing that hundreds of millions of eyes in the empire are staring at is her, Zhang Shusheng has no heirs for a long time, which makes her even scared.

Although she was a little jealous that Fu Huiyu was pregnant first, she was still relieved that the problem of the royal family could be completely resolved.

However, both she and He Ning had an indescribable feeling that although the imperial family already had many rules and etiquette, there were no clear regulations on the heir of the empire.

That is to say, according to ancient ideas, Zhang Shusheng's first son should be the crown prince, and if he is a daughter, he is also the eldest princess.

If it's a daughter, it's fine, if it's a son, Fu Huiyu can take advantage of it, and the crown prince, even if he can't ascend the throne and become the emperor in the end, is extraordinary.

Zhang Shusheng naturally didn't know these things, he was still immersed in surprises, decades of struggle, although he also had relatives, but they were not as precious as the child in Fu Huiyu's belly.

He had already sensed it with Yuan Li, Fu Huiyu was indeed pregnant, and he was still a son.

"Don't worry, I just checked your womb with Yuan Li, and there is indeed a fetus."

Zhang Shusheng said seriously, it was also comforting, from the morning to confirm this matter, Fu Huiyu's mood was like a roller coaster, up and down for a while.

The third queen of the royal family, she was the last to enter the door, but she was the first to get pregnant, even if she gave birth to a daughter, she was the eldest princess, if she gave birth to a son, Fu Huiyu only felt that she was a little unbearable.

She was worried for a while that she was not pregnant, and the rumor spread out to make an imperial joke, which made Zhang Shusheng even more angry.

Now, the emperor himself said that he was pregnant, but he was still a boy, Fu Huiyu only felt that at that moment, a great happiness hit her.

"Really, really? Be careful, are you telling the truth? ”

"Well, it's true. According to royal rules, when the inspection is done later, the people from the Royal Office will come and record it on the spot. ”

Zhang Shusheng said affirmatively, he also noticed the complicated emotions in the eyes of He Ning and Lu Yunyan, too, the two have not been pregnant for so many decades, and now Fu Huiyu is pregnant, and they are still boys, it is understandable that they are in a complicated mood.

Even if they are usually as good as sisters, they themselves strictly prohibit the harem infighting, and strictly prohibit them from interfering in politics, and at the same time clearly write the power of the Supreme Power Council of the Empire to supervise the behavior of the imperial family into the laws of the Empire. Although the Supreme Power Council of the Empire was elected from among the emperors, Zhang Shusheng was not worried about whether Zhang Shusheng was the chairman of the committee or other respected emperors in the future.

He lived long enough, and that was enough.

In many other civilizations, too, the emperor is not necessarily the supreme authority, the presbytery, the supreme power council is the highest authority of the empire, and the helm of those institutions is either the founder of the empire or some emperors, imperial relatives. Even the members are at least members of the royal family, or people who have made great contributions to the empire and are absolutely loyal to the empire.

After the family finished lunch, no matter how He Ning and Lu Yunyan laughed, Zhang Shusheng also felt that there was something in their hearts, but he didn't care, and when he went back and talked to them, he probably knew what they were worried about. It is said that once you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and it is easy to enter this royal gate, and you were not the emperor at that time, but now you can't look at it as an ordinary family.

In the afternoon, the ceremonial officer of the Royal Office arrived, and the royal physician brought the most advanced portable equipment. Also with him was Wei Sancai, head of the Imperial Propaganda Department.

There was no change in the results of the inspection, after all, Zhang Shusheng's Yuan Li was the best equipment.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Empress Fu is indeed pregnant, and it is a boy."

The imperial doctor soon had the results, and after he finished speaking, the ceremonial officer next to him began to record.

"Very good, my Zhang family is finally going to add Ding to import, hahaha."

Zhang Shusheng laughed, in a surprisingly good mood, if a twenty-year-old man treats the soon-to-be-born child with a kind of apprehension and fear, then with his calmness and so many years of waiting, it is just waiting for the child to be born, and everything is ready.

Money, power, everything, all of them were there, and this child came into the world with the Supreme Key.

"Your Majesty, Empress Fu's pregnancy is a major event, not only a royal event, but also a major event of the empire, and I suggest that it is best to hold a press conference to announce this huge good news to the more than four billion people of the empire."

Wei Sancai suggested on the side, as the Minister of Propaganda over the years, he deeply experienced the people's enthusiasm for the imperial prince, although Zhang Shusheng's cultivation is profound, unfathomable, and like a god, but thousands of years of feudal thought in the hearts of the people is still the imperial inheritance.

The empire is great day by day, there is no heir, there is no royal descendant, how can you say the past?

"Let's announce it. Be careful with the wording, though. ”

Zhang Shusheng said vaguely, Wei Sancai knew that His Majesty had something to say as soon as he heard it, so he didn't say anything, and only waited for the afternoon when he saw His Majesty alone.

After all, this is a boy, very sensitive, and if it's a girl, it's impossible to say it too much.

Zhang Shusheng accompanied Fu Huiyu to take a walk in the garden in the afternoon, and He Ning and Lu Yunyan drank tea in the imperial garden, but their mood was a little heavy.

"Sister, I want to take a vacation after a while and stop the work of the Royal Foundation, anyway, there are many people with stronger abilities than me, just come forward at a critical moment."

He Ning said euphemistically, she also wanted to accompany Zhang Shusheng more, at least to have more fun with him, otherwise, she would have to conceive a child in what year and month. She is also ready to adjust her body to the best and sprint by all means.

"I have this idea too, maybe we're too busy."

He Ning's work is mainly in the Royal Foundation, while Lu Yunyan's work is mainly in the domestic aspect, representing the royal family to participate in some major activities. Now that the empire is so big, several planets, there are still wars and garrisons on the front line, and Lu Yunyan is also running around.

Now Fu Huiyu is pregnant first, and she is still a child, which makes her feel a huge crisis.

"It's not that I'm jealous of my sister, but she's pregnant, and the two of us haven't conceived yet, and the people of the empire will poke us in the back. Over the years, I am afraid that many people have slandered us behind our backs for not importing for the royal family. ”

He Ning said earnestly.

Lu Yunyan looked at this younger sister, she is still like a girl in her twenties and thirties, but she is more graceful and luxurious, and her temperament is better, she is the worst among the three sisters, but she is better than getting started early, and her emotional foundation is the deepest, and now she is not even the turn to give birth to a child, and her pressure is the greatest.

The people of the He family and the Lu family also blew the wind in the ears of the two, so that they must try their best to conceive His Majesty's heir, and analyze the pros and cons of this.

"Sister, do you think Your Majesty will make your sister's child the prince?"

He Ning finally asked this sentence, she didn't have much jealousy, she just mentioned it in passing, but Lu Yunyan had some thoughts in her heart.

After all, she was the first to enter the door, but now she left the opportunity to give birth to the crown prince to her youngest sister, and this gap is a little difficult for her to accept.

"Our royal queen is in no particular order, since my sister is a gentleman and a boy, she should be made the crown prince."

Lu Yunyan said calmly, this is also what she said in her heart, even if there is unwillingness and sorrow in her heart, but the facts are the facts, the glory of the empire will not be transferred by the will of the two women, even if they are queens.

Even, she knew that even Zhang Shusheng couldn't change this matter.

Sure enough, when Wei San met Zhang Shusheng, this question was thrown up.

"Your Majesty, during the press conference, we need to publicize the identity of this prince, what capacity do you see ......?"

Wei Sancai wisely didn't continue, he also knew that His Majesty was still a little hesitant in his heart.

Zhang Shusheng frowned slightly, and said, "Otherwise, just publicize it as a prince?" ”

When Wei Sancai heard this, His Majesty's tone was also a little hesitant, it seemed that this matter was more tricky. He knew what His Majesty was worried about, but His Majesty didn't say it, he had to say, "Your Majesty, please forgive the minister, billions of people in the empire are looking forward to the prince for more than 20 years, and if the propaganda can't match it with the highest tone, I'm afraid the people won't agree."

What's more, in many imperial civilizations at present, the eldest son will be made a crown prince at birth, of course, it does not mean that they will definitely be in the future. ”

"You mean, even if you become the crown prince today, you don't necessarily have to be the emperor, right, Sancai, there are only the two of us here, you don't have to be so cautious.

I also thought that if he was only promoted as a prince, the people of the empire would still treat him as a prince, and it would leave room for many people's imagination. ”

What he didn't say was that this time the crown prince was not determined, if Lu Yunyan and He Ning were pregnant immediately after, what would they do? Who will be the crown prince?

He didn't want things to be unpleasant and cause a rift in the royal family.

"Instead of being entangled in all kinds of ways, it's better to go with the flow, Your Majesty, even if you decide to make it clear that Queen Fu will be born as the crown prince, the two queens will have no complaints, and everything will always be said to come first and come first."

Wei Sancai also dared to say this in front of Zhang Shusheng, he has always been Zhang Shusheng's most trusted courtier, and at this time, he also gritted his teeth and said it from the perspective of the royal family, and he is also one of the members of the highest power committee of the empire, not the kind of courtier who is simply afraid of a lot.

"Well, since that's the case, let's declare that Empress Fu was born as the crown prince."

If it was in ancient times, the queen and the princess were pregnant, and they had to be cautious, careful of others making them bad, or worried about bad childbirth, but now there is no such problem, and the technology has reached this point, if the royal family can't even keep a fetus, that's a big joke.

What's more, the fetus is already two months old, and it will immediately be taken care of in an all-round way in accordance with the imperial royal etiquette, just waiting for birth.

In 1969, on the 17th day of the lunar month, the day before the Laba Festival, the imperial family held a press conference, which was co-chaired by Sun Changqing, director of the Imperial Propaganda Department and chairman of the Imperial Imperial Affairs.

The press conference was held very suddenly, and many media were even notified just now, and the entire press conference gathered almost all the highly influential media in the empire, and the imperial propaganda department even ordered the imperial television to broadcast the whole process.

At the press conference, Wei Sancai, Minister of the Imperial Propaganda Department, announced that His Majesty Zhang Shusheng's third empress Fu Huiyu was two months pregnant, clearly mentioning that it was a boy.

In today's world, where illegal abortion is strictly prohibited, it is not against the law to recognize surnames.

The reporters in the audience were almost stunned.

They speculated that the content of the press conference might be that war was coming, maybe His Majesty the Emperor was going to marry a new person, or maybe there was some major policy to benefit the people that the empire was going to launch.

However, no one thought that it would be a royal joy.

Billions of people have been looking forward to something for more than ten years, but today it has come true, the royal family has a successor in the blink of an eye, and all the reporters are crazy, their bodies are tense, for fear of missing even a little bit of news.

They know that this will be the year, no, the most popular and extraordinarily big news of the Empire of the last decade.

This is not all, and then, Wei Sancai also announced that the empire will try out the new marriage law, and gave a brief introduction to the content of the new marriage law, which caused a sensation among reporters.

However, this is not comparable to what was subsequently announced by Sun Changqing, the chairman of royal affairs.

“…… After careful consideration by His Majesty, I declare on behalf of His Majesty Zhang Shusheng that the Empire will designate the son born to Empress Fu Huiyu as the crown prince, and let us look forward to the arrival of the imperial crown prince. Thank you! (To be continued.) )
