Get dressed quickly and get pregnant: Emperor Jue will give birth to a baby for me

Zhang Yuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, came out of the imperial study and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In July, news of the drought in the northwest reached central Beijing, and drought conditions also occurred in places near the capital.

Emperor Jiahe looked up at the sky and was so worried that he didn't know what to do.

There has been little rain this year. There was some rain at the beginning of spring, but now it does not rain throughout the summer.

It's not that he doesn't want to repay the emperor's money, it's because the national treasury is not rich.

In recent years, there have been constant disasters, coupled with the death of the prince and princess in the palace, there has been no good news from the harem, and there are bad voices among the people.

Zhang Shangshu felt sad for the emperor.

The late emperor was extravagant. During his 30 years in power, he practiced palaces and gardens everywhere. He went to the south of the Yangtze River seven times and spent so much that in his later years the national treasury was empty, and the decline of the Great Xia Kingdom was fully revealed.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has been diligent and caring for the people, turned the tide, stabilized the situation, and allowed Daxia's national power to grow steadily.

Such a virtuous and benevolent monarch is a blessing to their subjects and people in Daxia.

However, disasters in various places in recent years have consumed a lot of energy and financial resources from the imperial court and the treasury.

If so many disasters had occurred during the late emperor's time, Daxia would have been doomed long ago.

However, during the 30 years that the late emperor reigned, there were not many natural disasters.

However, the emperor, who was diligent and caring for the people, managed the affairs of the country in a clear and transparent manner, and practiced frugality to make the people's lives better than those of the late emperor, faced many natural disasters after he ascended the throne.

It was nothing in the first place. No matter how big or difficult the disaster was, they, the monarch, the people, and the people got through it together.

But the emperor lost his sons one after another, and now he has no son to inherit. Naturally, there are unfavorable voices among the people.

Zhang Shangshu looked up at the sky, God, please open your eyes.

The late emperor was fatuous and extravagant. During his 30 years in power, there were few natural disasters and many man-made disasters.

The emperor was diligent in his administration and loved his people, and he was a wise and benevolent monarch. However, natural disasters continued and he had no heirs.

God is so unfair.

"Your Majesty, after Zhang Shangshu left the imperial study, he returned to the household department and looked up at the sky and lamented that God was unfair to the emperor."

"What is this old boy thinking about?"

Emperor Jiahe was speechless.

Although he occasionally felt that God was unfair, he also regarded the difficulties and obstacles as his own hardships and experiences.

Emperor Jiahe stayed in the Yangxin Palace for a day. In addition to going to the Cining Palace to pay his respects, he also went to the Yongshou Palace.

"What is Yaoyao busy with?"

Emperor Jiahe couldn't help but be curious when he saw Bei Lingyao asking the palace people to collect leaves, bark, bamboo, reeds, hemp, etc.

"I want to try making something. I will tell the emperor when it is finished."

Daxia also had paper, but it was very rough and there was no movable type printing.

Bei Lingyao planned to get out the paper first.

"Yao'er wants to make paper?"

Emperor Jiahe saw it.

"Yes, I want to try to see if I can make better paper."

"I asked the Ministry of Industry to..."

"When the concubine is ready, it won't be too late for the Emperor to contact the Ministry of Industry."

"Then if you are short of manpower, just tell me."

Bei Lingyao was startled by Emperor Jiahe's words, "Isn't the Emperor afraid of the concubines' mischief?"

"This is something that benefits the country and the people. How can it be nonsense? As long as there is a will, no matter who it is, I will support it."

Bei Lingyao wished Emperor Jiahe a thousand blessings. It was indeed a blessing for the people to have such a wise monarch.

No wonder Emperor Jiahe's era was full of talents and produced many capable ministers, good generals and other pillars of talent.

With the support of Emperor Jiahe, Bei Lingyao naturally took action.

Emperor Jiahe even provided her with a lot of materials.

The movements in Yongshou Palace quickly attracted the attention of other palaces, but they were unable to get the news from Yongshou Palace.

I only saw smoke coming out of Yongshou Palace every day, and palace people coming in and out.

The concubines were very fussy, and according to the rules, they were not allowed to start a fire.

Unless the emperor gives permission to set up a small kitchen, only the queen mother, empress, and fourth concubine are eligible.

What does it mean for a concubine Zhuang, a noble concubine of the fourth rank, to live in a fire and smoke every day in the Yongshou Palace?

When Bei Lingyao paid his respects, he was naturally attacked by the concubines.

She said, "The Emperor has given special permission" and blocked the mouths of the concubines.

Not to mention the other concubines, even the queen was filled with panic.

She had never seen Emperor Jiahe indulge a concubine like this. Not only did he allow concubine Zhuang to run wild in Yongshou Palace, but he also brought the memorial to Yongshou Palace for review.

Even when she had a good relationship with the emperor, she was not treated like this.

The queen went to see the Queen Mother and mentioned the matter, hoping that the Queen Mother would take care of Emperor Jiahe and not allow Zhuang Gui's concubine to act recklessly.

"The emperor has already told the Ai family about this, so you don't have to worry about it."

The Queen Mother's words stung the Queen's heart and made her feel sad.

As a queen, she was responsible for managing the concubines in the harem, but she didn't even know what Zhuang Guifei was doing in Yongshou Palace, and she couldn't control it.

She has become a joke as a queen, how can she gain prestige among the concubines in the future.

Not even the concubine Zhuang Guifei paid attention to her as the queen.

The Queen Mother sent the Queen away, and now she had nothing to say to the Queen.

The emperor had a crush on the queen, and so did the queen mother.

So many princes and princesses are gone.

If the Yang family hadn't kept an eye on the throne, the Queen Mother wouldn't have wanted to stand in a dilemma between the emperor and her family, and would have wanted the emperor to depose her.

The queen left in disappointment, and Nanny Yang said: "The Queen Mother, the Prime Minister has asked someone to give this slave a message."

"Oh, what message did father bring to you?"

The Queen Mother said nonchalantly.

"The Prime Minister said that Concubine Zhuang had been childless for seven years and was abandoned. Now the Emperor is doting on Concubine Zhuang and it is not good for the children. Let the Queen Mother persuade the Emperor."

As soon as Nanny Yang finished her words, the Queen Mother sighed, "The Ai family doesn't know, but as mothers, the Ai family has not seen the emperor so happy for a long time. If the concubines in the palace had not disappointed the emperor, how could the emperor have done this? In the Palace of Eternal Life.”

"But now, the emperor has no son, and there is a reputation among the people that is unfavorable to the emperor."

"Don't be anxious. Zhuang Guifei has only been in the palace for a few days. The emperor will favor her as much as she can without delaying political affairs. After a while, the Aijia will ask the emperor to draft some beautiful girls who are good at giving birth to children and enter the palace. The emperor will naturally give priority to heirs. .”

Grandma Yang listened and said nothing more.

The Queen Mother was also very worried. Her son was now 28 years old. If he turned 30 in two years and had no children, the royal family and court officials would have to discuss adoption.

For the sake of the Great Xia Dynasty, the childless family naturally had to adopt an adopted child, but the Queen Mother looked forward to her grandson even more.

What she regretted most was that Xijing was not a meddlesome person and left the power of the harem completely to the queen. She was very relieved that the queen gave birth to a legitimate prince.

Who would have thought that the price of this peace of mind would be so high.

The queen is jealous and intolerant, narrow-minded, narrow-minded, duplicitous, good-natured and evil-hearted. She wished that all the princes born to other concubines would die, but she was unable to save her own children.

commit a sin!

Heavily sinful!

Whenever Concubine Jing or Concubine Hui Dexian was trying to win, the Queen Mother would depose the queen and help them ascend to the throne.

It's a pity that the emperor has been in good health over the past few years, but there has been no movement at all in the harem.

The Queen Mother thought for a while and said: "Next month, the Queen will lead all the concubines to pay her respects. You can ask the imperial doctor to ask for Ping An's pulse."

"Yes"
