Princess Wang Yan of Jin is pregnant, which is undoubtedly good news.

This means that Li Zhi is going to be a father and have his own children, which is definitely a very important thing in the royal family.

Lizhu is the inheritance of the country, and often not only the son, but even the grandson, after all, no one wants to die in the second country.

Once the emperor does not have a biological son, the succession to the throne is prone to chaos, so the selection of the crown prince also has to consider whether the adult prince has a son.

The grandson of the emperor often becomes a plus option for a prince, for example, Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty in later generations, wanted to abolish the crown prince Zhu Gaochi many times, because this obese and disabled son is really not like the wise and martial himself, Zhu Di feels that he is detrimental to the royal prestige.

In contrast, the second son was like himself, so he moved the year of Yi Chu, when the minister Xie Jin was a staunch supporter of the crown prince Zhu Gaochi. In order to dispel the emperor's idea of abolishing the crown prince, when Zhu Di asked, he didn't say anything about the abolition of the long and the young, and the unruly, but only said the words "good emperor and grandson".

It is a bad rule to abolish the elder and the young, but if the eldest son of the emperor is really not successful, on the big issue of inheritance of the country, the bold emperor will definitely dare to "break the rules", and Zhu Di is such a person. But the three words of good emperor and grandson have an out-and-out practical temptation/confusion.

Zhu Gaochi himself may not be capable, but he gave birth to a good son, the imperial grandson Zhu Zhanji is talented and intelligent, and he is very loved by Zhu Di. For the emperor, a son can't do it, but as long as he has a good grandson, the royal family can still be revitalized in the future, and the country can still be rich and strong.

It is also said that the reason why Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty set up the fourth prince Yinzhen as the prince is also related to Hongli (Qianlong), a good emperor and grandson. Of course, this is only the speculation of later generations, not necessarily true, but the value of a good emperor and grandson is self-evident.

When Li Chengqian was the crown prince, there were many unscrupulous. But since giving birth to his son Li Xiang, he has also added a lot of points, and Li Shimin has always loved this emperor and grandson.

The reason why Li Tai's words of killing his son and begging for a prince are counterproductive, in addition to the cold-blooded and brutal ones revealed, are also very related to this. The royal family, which pays the most attention to blood inheritance, wants to kill its own heirs, how can this work?

Now that Princess Jin is pregnant, it is undoubtedly a great thing. Li Zhi has a son, so he has a inheritance, and there is no doubt that he has more weight in the competition for the crown prince.

Because Li Ke, the king of Wu, is already in his twenties, and he still has no son, which not only makes Li Shimin and Concubine Yang a little worried.

There is no doubt that in this matter, Li Ke has temporarily lost a ride.

And fortunately, Wang Yan is pregnant, and the one who will be born in the future will definitely be a son-in-law, so that there will be no more queens and no children. The situation of competing for favor with Concubine Xiao Shu has caused civil strife in the palace.

And after the news of the pregnancy spreads, the Taiyuan royal family will definitely be very happy, they used to support only sons-in-law, maybe they don't think it's so reliable. But now it's different, they support the grandson who has the blood of the Wang family, and the meaning is very different.

For this reason alone, the Taiyuan Wang clan will devote all their strength to help Li Zhi. The Taiyuan Wang clan may also mobilize the entire Shandong Shi clan to participate and become a strong backing for His Royal Highness the King of Jin.

And behind Li Zhi there is the uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji. and the Guanlong nobles he represented, in terms of the situation, Li Zhi was supported by both Guanlong and Shandong families.

The ascension to the throne of this son can ensure that the interests of all parties are taken care of and that the situation between the DPRK and China is stable.

So now Li Zhi's competitiveness has greatly improved. The opportunities are also getting bigger and bigger, and Xie Yi is naturally very happy. In this case, maybe you don't have to do anything more, the eldest grandson family and the Taiyuan Wang family are willing to help promote.

As a long history, just sit back and enjoy it. What a pleasant thing.

Regardless of whether Li Zhi understands it now or not, he will definitely understand what he has done for him all these years, so this skill from the dragon can't be escaped.

Because she became pregnant after coming to Gongchuan Villa, Wang Yan was also amazed, and she was even more grateful to the Xie family. The reputation of the Rim River Villa, the blessed land of the cave, has also spread.

Princess Jin is pregnant, and the three ladies of the Xie family all have big bellies, which is a rare grand scene. Many people proposed to go to the Gongchuan villa to live, but the Xie family politely declined, after all, it is their own private place, and it is inconvenient to entertain outsiders for a long time.

Each family also understood, so they changed their strategy and began to look for places in Qinling Lantian and other places to build a courtyard with a quiet environment and excellent feng shui. Especially those who are not very vigorous in their children, they are even more stingy with money and spend a lot of money to buy land for construction.

So much so that for a period of time, there was a frenzy of Nanshan villa construction in Datang, and to a certain extent, it triggered the Datang version of the real estate bubble.

After Xie Yi heard the news in the Gongchuan Villa, he only felt funny.

"What does it have to do with whether the heirs are not prosperous and whether they build another courtyard or not? That's right, the mountains are quiet, living is safe and comfortable, what can you have more time, but in the final analysis, it still depends on the man's own strength, right? ”

Patting the snow-white long legs on the couch, Xie Yi smiled and said: "So, it's okay to let your man exercise more, it's really not okay to go to the doctor to prescribe some tonics, but it's not as talented as being talented." ”

"You!" Du Xijun on the side complained softly, lying on the couch lazily, his complexion flushed, and his eyes were like silk. The three ladies are pregnant, except for those who are occasionally close, it is not convenient for them to wait for their husbands, and Xie Yi has to worry a lot, and it is difficult to have fun, so Du Xijun has undoubtedly become the main force.

After tossing twice, the beauty had long lost her strength, and she lay on the bamboo couch and talked to Xie Yi about these gossips about the Chang'an magnates. There are a lot of people who come to visit Gongchuan Villa these days, and Du Xijun has long been tired of it.

"I was right to turn them down, I don't want outsiders to disturb me in such a quiet place, especially if I came to live there." Xie Yi smiled: "Otherwise, how can I sleep directly with Mrs. Cai Guo?" How can it be convenient to sneak away to Baiyun to see peace? ”

"Didn't I refuse, just one sentence that there are many women in the family, and they are all pregnant, so it is inconvenient for outsiders to live permanently." Du Xijun said leisurely: "Actually, these ladies are also pitiful, it is estimated that they are not favored much on weekdays, they hope to come to us to get some light, and then go back to envelop their husbands to beg for favor and children."

They were pitiful, but I didn't dare to keep them. Staying alone with the female dependents would damage Saburo's reputation. Husband and wife come together, it will damage our reputation, so let them build their own house! ”

"That's right, there must be a lot of people who have other ideas." Xie Yi smiled faintly.

"What?" Du Xijun hesitated at first, and then suddenly said: "You mean His Royal Highness the King of Jin?" ”

"Yes, the crown prince's position is vacant. King Jin has undoubtedly become hot, but there are no outsiders in Furong Garden, and they have no choice but to come to us. ”

Xie Yi said: "I'm a closed-door guest who changes the law, but I'm still overwhelmed, it's really annoying!" Do you know, a few days ago, the Erlang of the Mo family was going to visit me, and it was written in the worship post to ask me for advice on Fang/Zhongshu, what do you say is this? ”

Du Xijun sneered and said, "It's really ......."

"No way, who let the reputation go out. The three ladies were pregnant at the same time, which was rare in the palace. Then they wanted to make an appointment with me in this way, but there was really nothing to say. Xie Yi shook his head and said, "It's just that this kind of private matter in our boudoir can be used by outsiders?" ”

"San Lang is completely different from those children of the family, they all boast of themselves on weekdays, and they like to brag about such rhymes, and I have heard of it."

"Of course, it's bragging, looking at their over-drinking, they have long been pewter heads. Really capable. It's time to take care of my wife at home......"

As he spoke, Xie Yi turned over. Yoyo asked, "Have you rested?" ”

"Huh? You still want to ......" Du Xijun suddenly exclaimed, full of spring.

……

In the Taiji Palace, Concubine Yang's bedroom, it is also full of spring.

Li Shimin hasn't been here for a long time, after all, Concubine Yang is old, old and decrepit. In recent years, it has been mainly some young new concubines who have been sleeping with them.

But no one expected that His Majesty the Emperor would suddenly arrive and stay in the palace, and Concubine Yang would naturally sleep that night.

The son Li Ke is in his twenties, and Concubine Yang is almost forty years old. There is a way that thirty is like a wolf, and forty is like a tiger. This should be the age when a woman's demand is the highest, but it is the most difficult for the women in the palace, who are old and decrepit, and most of them have lost their favor, so they naturally live a very depressed life.

But last night, the emperor suddenly stayed overnight, and pampered Concubine Yang, the old husband and wife had a night of fish and water, although not as wild as when he was young. But you and I are also satisfied, especially when Concubine Yang's long-term body suddenly met Ganlin, the whole person radiated vitality and brilliance that had not been seen for a long time, and it became more and more moving.

So much so that His Majesty Li Er, who was already a little weak, scored twice, which made Concubine Yang even more satisfied.

After the clouds and rain, Li Shimin and Concubine Yang lay on the couch, hugging each other and lying down, and the radiant Concubine Yang was satisfied. But as the **** gradually calmed down, she was keenly aware that the emperor suddenly came tonight, and it was very unusual for her to favor her, maybe there was something else behind this.

Li Shimin grabbed Concubine Yang's still waist and said softly: "I remember that when you first entered Chang'an, you were only thirteen years old, and you were still a little girl, running barefoot in the palace, afraid of being anxious. ”

"But no, the concubine was really scared at that time, the army entered the city, the Sui Dynasty is over, what will happen to me as a princess of the former dynasty? I didn't even have time to put on my shoes, I just thought about escaping, but I didn't expect to meet Your Majesty. Recalling the past, Concubine Yang's mood not only changed slightly, but her expression was also slightly moved.

"I saw that you were so lovely and pitiful, so I took you on horseback." Li Shimin has a sentence that talks about the past of the year, recalling the time when he was heroic and heroic.

"The concubine leaned on His Majesty's arms at that time, feeling very safe, and wherever His Majesty went, all the generals surrendered and shouted His Royal Highness King Qin."

Concubine Yang smiled: "At that time, the concubine felt that His Majesty was very tall and very handsome...... Then he was taken back to the Qin Mansion by His Majesty. ”

"Yes, I brought the little princess of the former Sui back to the house, and then became my side concubine, and I still remember your shy appearance on the first night." Li Shimin laughed, and seemed to be very proud of the wind/flow scene back then.

Although many years have passed, Concubine Yang still can't stand the blush, and said leisurely: "At that time, I was still young, and it was the first time to serve Your Majesty, so it was inevitable that I would ...... After that, it will be very good, the concubine remembers that the eldest grandson sister was pregnant at that time, and His Majesty often pampered the concubine......"

"Yes, Guanyin is a good wife, virtuous and virtuous, but lively and lovely, no matter how tired she is outside, when I go back to see you, I will be full of vitality."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Within a few years, we had Ke'er, you seemed to be only sixteen years old at that time, Ke'er, this child was born like me, smart, heroic and upright!" ”

Hearing her husband mention Li Ke, Concubine Yang's heart moved slightly, and then she continued without a trace: "In those years, Your Majesty favored many concubines, and then there was a dark child...... Many years have passed, and now the two children have grown up, but the concubines are old. ”

"Not old, the charm still exists, oh no, it's better than in the past, it's much more comfortable than those young talents." Li Shimin laughed, and seemed to be particularly pleased with the different experiences.

Concubine Yang was inevitably ashamed, after all, she was old, and this husband was a little embarrassed to say this.

"What's the matter? Blushing what? Li Shimin smiled: "Where is the initiative of Shicai?" It's different, those little girls only know how to please, and they can't cater to them, where is the taste of getting along with husband and wife. ”

Although the content of the topic is comparative, Concubine Yang still keenly grasped the key word of her husband's sentence - husband and wife!

The marriage system in ancient China was not polygamy, but monogamy and polygonal concubines, for the emperor, except for the queen is the wife, even the four concubines of Guishu and virtuous are just concubines.

Li Shimin talked about the taste of getting along with husband and wife, but he just said it casually, or did he have anything else in mind? Concubine Yang couldn't help but feel a little heartbeat.

Li Shimin didn't know if he noticed it, and said with a smile: "It's still with you... You are more comfortable together, in the past few years, I have snubbed you. ”

From this day on, the young concubines who had recently been selected in the palace were suddenly left out in the cold, and His Majesty the Emperor seemed to have changed his taste all of a sudden. At night, they mainly stayed at the place of some older concubines, Wei Guifei, Yan Defei and Xiao Yang Concubine, and the four concubines had to regain their glory after a long drought.

But the most frequent times is undoubtedly Concubine Yang, who spends more than half of the month in Concubine Yang's bedroom, which is about to catch up with the degree of favor of Empress Changsun back then.

Concubine Yang is about forty years old, so naturally she is not favored by the king because of her youthful and beautiful appearance, let alone the fox charming.

His Majesty Li Er is wise and martial, and he will definitely not be confused, and the palace will also be strictly managed, and there will never be such a thing. Concubine Yang herself was of noble birth and had been in the palace for many years, and her reputation as a virtuous lady was well known, so naturally it had nothing to do with it.

Therefore, the reason for this sudden favor is very intriguing, and everyone can't help but think of Concubine Yang having two sons, especially Li Ke, the king of Wu, who is heroic and loved by His Majesty the Emperor.

In this way, Concubine Yang is favored because her mother is more expensive than her son? (To be continued.) )
