Queen Mother, she just wants to lie down

Ruan Qing thought he was very eloquent, but under the double attack of Lin Haoming, the former prostitute, and the emperor, he finally had to pinch his nose and admit defeat.

Jiangnan's incognito trip was successfully won, but there were a few more people in the team who were not within the budget.

On March 13th, Ruan Qing finished his breakfast, changed into clothes for traveling, and was about to take Zhao Ping with him when Liang Fan went out quietly.

As for the others, in order not to attract attention, everyone made an appointment to meet outside the city gate.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door of Cining Palace, he met the emperor who was coming in a hurry.

"Why is the emperor here at this time, but do you have anything to tell me?" Ruan Qing looked at him in surprise.

The things that need to be warned should have been done a few days ago, right?

"Mother, didn't you decide to leave for Jiangnan today? A son has to come and see her off." The emperor looked at her speechlessly.

"There's no need to send me away. I left the palace quietly. If you send me away, won't my whereabouts be immediately exposed?"

Only then did Ruan Qing realize that he was wearing the clothes of an ordinary rich boy today.

"Mother."

"Okay, we are biological mother and son. We don't need to pay attention to these false etiquette. You are too intrusive and you can't follow me out of the palace, even in casual clothes.

However, during the period when I am not in the palace, you should pay more attention to taking care of yourself. Remember to practice Baduanjin every day.

Even the concubines should be treated with a bowl of water.

Remember to follow the rules, don't favor one or dislike the other, which will cause them to feel unbalanced and fight among themselves.

Everything is not about scarcity but about inequality. Many conflicts in the world are caused by unfair treatment.

In addition, you already have five concubines, all five of them are very outstanding in appearance and have their own characteristics.

If you want to see beauties, you can appreciate them in different time periods and forget about other things.

If you want to have children, five lives is enough.

Don't just think that the Ai family is not in the palace and bring a few more people back.

The treasury had no money, and the people still had a lot of food to eat. Cui Shangshu was so worried that his beard almost fell out in order to make money.

Every time you take in a concubine, it will put a huge burden on the treasury.

The same is true for each additional child. Too many children not only cost money, but also easily lead to fights.

As an emperor, you have to know what's going on. "Ruan Qing resolutely refused to be sent off by the emperor, and before leaving, Yin Yin warned him.

Xie Huaijin...

Did he come here specifically to be trained?

After taking care of the emperor, he got into the carriage and walked out. Ruan Qingruo said thoughtfully: "Should we take Dr. Hu with us?"

"Why take him?" Zhao Ping asked curiously.

"He has good medical skills. Let's go to Jiangnan. We don't know what we will encounter along the way. If we get injured or something, it will be more convenient to have him with us." Ruan Qing replied.

"But he can't ride a horse." Queqi blurted out.

"Oh, that's fine."

It was more than a thousand miles from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River. It was a long journey and it would take a long time to ride in a carriage, so Ruan Qing decided to ride a horse.

In order to go to Jiangnan, she had already practiced riding horses at the Royal Horse Stadium.

She has some basic knowledge, and with the two masters Que Qi and Jiang Yuan teaching her for months, her riding skills are already quite outstanding.

"Queen Mother, when you said those words in front of His Majesty, aren't you afraid that he will fall out with you?"

Zhaoping remembered what the Queen Mother had said to the Emperor in Cining Palace, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.

When Ruan Qing said these words at that time, he did not let them avoid it, and both Zhaoping and Queqi heard it.

"Why are you separated from me? Did I say anything wrong?" Ruan Qing asked curiously.

"It's true that it's wrong. Whether it's too many wives or too many children, not to mention the expense, it's easy to cause disputes.

But the question is, aren’t emperors throughout the ages proud of having many heirs? If any stubborn old master hears what you said today, he might use the ancestral rules to attack you. " Zhao Ping said.

"Not all the rules set by our ancestors are correct. If there are things that are wrong, we can slowly help correct them.

The former emperor had too many heirs, which is why there were so many fights. Not only the previous emperor, but to be precise, all the emperors in the past had too many heirs, and fights were inevitable.

If anyone dares to criticize the Ai family for this matter, I will use these lessons learned to punish them to death.

In the past, those people would let the emperor draft concubines at every turn. To put it bluntly, it was all for their own benefit.

He wanted his daughter to give birth to a prince so that he could compete for that position.

Now that Daxi is so poor, whoever dares to encourage the emperor to select concubines will be paid by the Ai family. " Ruan Qing snorted.

"Pfft, actually I was thinking before that when I got to choose county horses, I should choose two more.

Now that the Queen Mother has said this, it’s better to choose one.

Having too many choices can easily make your home restless.

The most important thing is that it would be too troublesome for me to have to give birth to a child again. " Zhao Ping burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Zhaoping, are you actually planning to choose several county horses?" Que Qi and Liang Fan looked at her in shock.

"What's the problem? Look, all the men in this world who have some money and power have a lot of wives and concubines.

I am the princess and the chief female officer of the Queen Mother, and I am good-looking.

Even if I am rich, handsome and powerful, I am also raising them if I choose county horses, so why can’t I choose a few more? " Zhaoping looked at them confidently.

"According to this logic, there is no problem, but it is a bit expensive and physically demanding." Ruan Qing expressed his views objectively.

"Who says it's not? Hey, let's choose one first. If the chosen one doesn't work, then change it.

In short, I will definitely not be like my mother-in-law, who has been a consort for decades and still shed tears for her.

Fortunately, she should be able to get over that emotional pain soon. Maybe when we come back from Jiangnan, I will have an extra stepfather. " Zhao Ping sighed.

This girl can't stop talking without shocking her words.

"Ronghua is going to choose a new consort?" Ruan Qing was stunned.

"Hey, Queen Mother, your information is a bit behind. Don't you know that my mother-in-law has a sweetheart?"

A prosperous bamboo horse?

Ruan Qing searched the memory of the original owner and said hesitantly: "You are talking about Xiao Hu, Enke's deputy examiner this year?"
