concubine on top

Chapter 88 hint

Everyone immediately regained their spirits, and vowed to get to the bottom of the establishment of the palace school: "Then why do you want to learn what the imperial students learned?" The little emperor said calmly: "The content learned by the imperial school has been revised and is very practical. Yes, the previous court needed it, and so did the rear court.”

"What about the criteria for recruiting female disciples?"

"Women who have reached the age of sixteen, have an innocent family background, are in good health, and can read and write are all welcome."

The little emperor had reservations about his words, he answered whatever he asked, and didn't mention anything else, but the people below were frantically brainstorming in the blank space - his own female officials and concubines were all selected from among the ladies, and they entered in advance. It is naturally good for Gong to train, even if he loses in the end, it will be beneficial and harmless.Furthermore, even if my daughter is poor-looking, as long as she is willing to work hard and cultivate some talent, it is worthwhile to stay in the palace and become a female official!

A group of people were making calculations in full swing, and they had long forgotten the fact that the emperor only favored the noble concubine. Even if they remembered it, they only used the noble concubine as a blueprint for easy favoring - a glamorous beauty!Brilliant!Bold and faithful!Good physical strength!Grow tall!Know martial arts!Approved by the Queen Mother!

Looking at the faces that couldn't hide their smiles, the little emperor had an imperceptible smile on his face, as if watching a bird follow the plan and fly to the bottom of the bamboo sieve to peck the pre-scattered millet.

After retreating from the imperial court, the little emperor set up his imperial study and took off his cloak when he entered the door. He was the first to invite Xiao Fuzi to whisper: "Let Imperial Doctor Jiang come here, just say it's a routine consultation, don't let anyone come in to see me."

Xiao Fuzi handled the affairs neatly, and led the people here within a short while.

The little emperor nodded to Physician Jiang, turned around and walked inside: "Everyone else go out."

His voice was cold, and Imperial Physician Jiang, who entered the door after him, was terrified. When the gate was closed, Imperial Physician Jiang put down the medicine box, and asked worriedly, "Your Majesty, let me take a pulse first?"

The little emperor turned to look at him, sat down at the table without saying a word, and put his hand on the pulse pillow.

Physician Jiang put his finger on the little emperor's wrist and asked a few questions routinely. After a while, he changed his hand and examined him carefully again. Then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Your dragon is in good health. There's nothing wrong with that."

The little emperor withdrew his hand: "I have no doubts about this. I called the imperial physician here because I have something to ask."

"Please speak, Your Majesty."

The little emperor turned his face slightly, glanced at the door and window, lowered his voice and said: "Doctor Jiang, with my body, if I am pregnant, can I give birth to a child smoothly?"

Physician Jiang immediately changed his face: "Your Majesty, are you...?"

The little emperor put his index finger in front of his lips, and softly "hush": "I'm just asking, you answer truthfully, and don't say anything when you leave this door."

Hearing this, Imperial Physician Jiang didn't dare to breathe: "...I obey the order." Next, he asked the little emperor to lie on the bed, pressed his abdomen lightly, and performed a more careful examination.Wiping the sweat off his forehead tremblingly, he came to the conclusion: "The emperor's internal development is quite perfect. If the fetal position is correct, it should be no different from ordinary pregnant women during delivery, but..."

"Don't worry, as long as you keep the secret well, I will keep you safe."

"Yes." Physician Jiang continued with difficulty, "If the fetal position is not correct, an experienced woman needs to massage and rotate the baby through the abdomen to move the baby to a suitable position before delivering the baby. The whole process is very difficult..."

As he talked, his voice became quieter, and the little emperor closed his eyes: "Speak in one breath."

"...Even if it is a normal delivery, you still have to experience risks, not to mention that your dragon body is different from that of an ordinary woman, and giving birth may cause you to suffer more pain..."

The little emperor propped his head up, his gaze fixed on a speck of dust floating in the air: "Will he die?"

This sentence was like a thunderbolt, Jiang Taiyi immediately threw up his robe and knelt down in front of the little emperor, Jishou persuaded: "For the sake of your dragon body, I do not recommend you to conceive."

"I know you are doing it for my own good." The little emperor leaned over to hold his arm, and slowly lifted him up, with a calm and gentle voice, "I just want to hear how bad the worst outcome can be. Answer me, If the delivery is not smooth, will I die?"

"Weichen will definitely not let you have any accidents, but the fetus in the womb is fragile. If the situation is critical, I can't be sure to keep it." Jiang Taiyi lowered his head with a complicated expression, "The emperor should give up this idea."

At the same moment, in the Empress Dowager's Palace.

"Here, this is for you." The Empress Dowager took a handful of sapphire rollers and handed them to Shen Yanchuan, while he insisted on the white jade rollers as a demonstration, "When you have nothing to do, use it to roll your face and maintain your skin."

"I thank the Queen Mother for the reward." Shen Yanchuan held the jade roller, the texture was delicate, and the tentacles were cool.

"From now on, you should call yourself a concubine, otherwise it will be unreasonable to go in and out of Ai's house."

Shen Yanchuan immediately changed his words: "The concubine would like to obey Yi's order."

The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand to fetch two cups of tea, her eyes were still pondering over Shen Yanchuan's face: "It must have been hard to stay in the south, and you are still so thin after returning to the palace."

Shen Yanchuan shook his head, and said indifferently: "Fighting against Wuzan, once the concubine has tasted her long-cherished wish, why bother to talk about it."

"You don't need to be polite. Ai's natal family is also a military general. How could Ai's family not understand what life was like in the barracks?" The queen mother passed a few plates of dim sum to the small table, "You look better if you are fat, if you are too thin, you can wear it in the palace Pretending is a bit against the law. Let's eat."

As the queen mother said, she put some snacks into his bowl, and ate a piece of mung bean cake herself.Shen Yanchuan thanked the queen mother, tasted the pastries in the bowl silently, and had a premonition that the queen mother was about to tell the point of this meeting - after all, he is a man, and the queen mother wants to avoid suspicion when she sees him, and let him leave after greeting him normally. Let him eat in the palace today, there must be something important to discuss.

Sure enough, while eating, the Empress Dowager asked him: "Have you ever heard of the emperor's imperial studies in the harem?"

Shen Yanchuan remembered that the little emperor said that he wanted to restructure the harem, so he nodded and said: "I heard the emperor mention it before, but I haven't heard it mentioned since then."

"When you return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, you should be able to hear people talking about it." The Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and blew, "Just now Ai's family received the news that the Emperor said in the morning..."

She briefly recounted what she had heard, and then said: "Concubine, Aijia has a heart-to-heart talk with you. The emperor's favor for the harem is sometimes very helpless."

Shen Yanchuan nodded slightly, unconsciously stroking the bamboo leaves embroidered on his cuffs with his fingertips.

"Since my reign began with the Taizu, there have been many men who are affectionate in the Tian family. Not to mention the distance, but the first emperor, the love of his life is a girl who was his childhood sweetheart. Unfortunately, the other party has another lover and has not yet entered the world. And he has not changed his infatuation for many years, and he had children with Aijia and Concubine An just for the Empress Dowager, so after having two princes, he almost never visited the harem again."

When the queen mother said this, she took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, "Can you understand what Ai Jia said?"
