In fact, Steward Zhu has never had children, not because he has a physical problem, but because his wife is unable to have children.

At that time, Yun Luoyi had inadvertently discovered that Steward Zhu's wife had manipulated the spices in each room.

Spices are a special thing, and the taste will not change if you change the ingredients, but according to pharmacology, they will have different effects, such as making people contraceptive.

Most people like to use a spice for a long time, and the big house can be said to be once and for all, so Steward Zhu will always have no children.

Now I let Qifang change the spices every day, firstly, because he does not find time for Dafang to do his hands and feet, and secondly, because Qifang is also a scheming woman.

Steward Zhu has a total of eight concubine rooms, and the most favored ones are the third and seventh rooms, and now the three, four, and six rooms are dead, and few people can compete with the big house, but these seven rooms are quite thoughtful, and they have been circling with the big house.

It is precisely because Qifang is a scheming person that Chu Luoyi will name Qifang, otherwise if the other concubines are pregnant, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the poisonous hands of Dafang, and in the end they can only rejoice.

Time passed little by little in this dark cell, and Chu Luoyi's food became clean, although it was not sumptuous, but it was clean enough to make people greedy.

One day, just after breakfast, the jailers hurried over and opened the cell door one by one.

"Hurry up, give it all to Lao Tzu! Don't rub it in, I'm delaying the time, I'll chop your legs! The jailers were all fierce, and they didn't know what they were shouting for, and suddenly they called out all the women in the cells.

Chu Luoyi followed several female prisoners and walked out, but he was speculating in his heart about what had happened.

Many female prisoners stood in two rows in an orderly manner under the merciless whipping of the jailers, but they couldn't help but whisper what was going on.

Chu Luoyi lowered his eyes secretly, if he didn't guess wrong, there must be a high-ranking official in the palace who came here, planning to select a group of people from among the female prisoners, maybe to be used as a substitute for the dead ghost, but it may also be a way to live.

The female prisoners were taken to the foot of the mine, where they usually mined, and there were many jailers, all of whom stood by with whips.

Chu Luoyi raised his head slightly, and saw a table of eight immortals not far in front of him, with a luxurious chair next to the table, and on the chair sat a eunuch in a blue eunuch suit, with one foot on the other, sipping a tea cup and holding an orchid finger.

The eunuch looked mediocre, but he showed a ruthlessness, and there were two little eunuchs standing behind him, and then there were two teams of guards.

This eunuch is obviously from the palace, and he can make such a big move, and his position is not low.

"Get on your knees! Get on your knees! Don't hurry up to see Grandpa Zhou! The warden threw down his whip and shouted at the many female prisoners.

"See Grandpa Zhou..."

The eunuch put the teacup on the table, cocked the orchid and said faintly: "Slow, our family can't stand this." ”

"Father-in-law Zhou, you must not refuse, now that your arrival is simply opening the door to heaven for these stupid things, how can they not bow down to you, father-in-law." The warden said flatteringly.

"Hehe, you can say this, but we don't dare to accept this gift in our family, if this reaches the ears of Lord Wang, won't I think I'm bold." That week's father-in-law cocked his orchid fingers, half-closed eyelids, leaving only a slit, and glanced at the kneeling people below.

"It's still the father-in-law who is thoughtful, and the villain is stupid, which almost ruined the reputation of the father-in-law." The warden pursed his mouth and smiled earnestly.

"Okay, let's all get up, let's talk to you well." Gonggong Zhou raised his index finger and pointed at everyone.

Chu Luoyi quickly analyzed what the prison warden said before, if he didn't guess wrong, it seemed that this was a chance to live.

Thinking of being able to leave this dark cell, Chu Luoyi couldn't help but feel a little excited, and the fingers hanging by his side clenched slightly.

As soon as Zhou's father-in-law's words fell, several female prisoners whispered.

Seeing this, Gonggong Zhou's face was a little displeased, and he said: "Everyone who speaks will be dragged down by our family, the most important thing in this palace is to understand the rules, and it is just a matter of doing something wrong, if it affects the master, it is not enough to cut off a few heads." ”

The crowd immediately did not dare to speak, and the people who were taken down shouted unwillingly, but what awaited them was a severe beating.

"Raise your heads and take a good look at our family." Gonggong Zhou looked at the rows of female prisoners and said.

Chu Luoyi raised his head with everyone, his eyes fell on Gonggong Zhou, and he tried his best to restrain his momentum.

"Oops! How do you look at these dirty ones? Father-in-law Zhou pinched his nose in disgust and said.

"Quick! Go fetch water! The warden immediately commanded.

After a while, the female prisoners washed up, and to Chu Luoyi's consternation, the face she saw in the reflection in the basin was eight points similar to herself in her previous life, only a little more childish.

Gonggong Zhou stood up and looked in front of all the women, compared to those women with mediocre appearances, those women with better looks were obviously more excited.

As long as Gonggong Zhou nodded slightly, the little eunuch beside him would command the selected woman to stand aside.

When Father-in-law Zhou's steps stopped in front of Chu Luoyi, and after meeting the white jade-like cheeks, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes and he nodded.

Chu Luoyi stood in the selected team, looking at the number of people selected in his heart, he couldn't help but feel heavy, if he was elected to the palace, there would definitely not be so many places, it seems that he has to be cautious.

However, thinking that this young lady of Yunfu was carved out of the same mold as herself, Chu Luoyi only felt that the world was really wonderful, so she simply asked her to be born in Beiyan, otherwise, if she was in Nanzhao with this face, I was afraid that it would be even more difficult.

There were probably less than 300 female prisoners in the entire prison, and more than 80 were selected, all of whom were good-looking women, and the rest were sent back.

Gonggong Zhou looked at these women and spoke again: "Those with scars on their bodies stand up!" ”

As soon as these words came out, many women who were previously selected fell to the bottom again, after all, there are so many fights in prison, the weak are often bullied, and the strong always have to face challenges, and only a few extremely strong people have no scars on their bodies.

As soon as the incident passed, more than fifty people were kicked out, and now there are less than thirty people left.

But Chu Luoyi didn't obediently follow those people to leave, even though she knew that her body was full of holes, she still stayed here, and the opportunity was always fought for by herself.
