It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

Princess what does this mean?

In an instant, Su Wanti’s mind was in turmoil.

She couldn't guess what the princess was thinking, so she raised her eyes and asked with a smile, "Why do you ask this, Princess?"

The princess looked at Su Wanti and was silent for a moment.

Su Wanti actually saw a trace of vicissitudes and compassion in her eyes.

"A few months ago, I went to Jiangnan to visit my aunt. After arriving in Jiangnan, I followed my aunt on a journey and saw the sufferings of the people."

Su Wanti looked at the princess without saying a word, and listened to her quietly.

"When I was in the palace, I was taken care of by the imperial physician and the female physician. This trip made me realize that most doctors in the folk are men, and there are very few female doctors. Influenced by the secular world, women in the folk are ashamed to see a male physician whether they are sick or giving birth."

"Many women are delayed in this way. Minor illnesses are delayed until they become serious ones, and serious illnesses can only lead to death."

"It's the same when a woman gives birth. She'll ask a midwife to deliver the baby, but she's not a doctor. If the birth goes smoothly, it's fine. If not, then you can only leave it to fate."

"So, when I saw my brother, I thought about how the Royal Concubine gave birth. Was it painful? Was it smooth?"

Su Wanti said softly, "I am in the palace, and I have the care of the imperial doctors and female doctors with superb medical skills. Naturally, it is much smoother than for women in the folk."

"However, the pain of childbirth must be borne by the mother herself, and no one else can share it with her. Therefore, the pain is no less than that of ordinary women."

Su Wanti took pain-free pills before giving birth, so she did not feel any pain during childbirth, but she could not tell the princess this.

"Princess, do you want to do something for the women among the people?" Su Wanti asked.

The princess nodded. "I used to only care about my own enjoyment. I held a high position but did nothing. I wasted this good background."

"If I hadn't visited the common people, I wouldn't know anything. But now that I've seen the plight of common women, I can't just sit back and do nothing."

"Royal Concubine, I want to ask my father for some imperial physicians, and then I will find some smart, hardworking and talented women from the people, train them to be female doctors, treat illnesses for women all over the world, and help women give birth smoothly, is that okay?"

At this moment, the princess' eyes were sparkling, and there seemed to be a small flame burning with infinite energy in her eyes.

Su Wanti smiled and nodded, "Princess, your idea is very good, the emperor will definitely agree to it."

After a pause, she continued, "Princess, maybe you and I can join hands."

"Some time ago, I suggested to the emperor that we should open more charity halls among the people, adopt orphans, teach them skills, and let them support themselves."

"There are many young children in the charity hall. We can select smart girls from them and teach them medical skills. What do you think, Princess?"

The princess clapped her hands and smiled, "This is a good idea. It will benefit the children in the charity hall and save us the trouble of looking for people among the people."

----

The princess told Rong Zhou about this, and Rong Zhou naturally agreed.

He was very pleased to find the changes in his daughter.

The two tasks of opening a charity hall and teaching female medicine were both assigned to the princess.

It was Su Wanti's idea to open a charity hall, so the princess would often come to Guanju Palace to discuss things with Su Wanti when she was doing things.

As time went by, the relationship between the two became closer.

----

The queen attached particular importance to this pregnancy.

Moreover, she was not young anymore, and this pregnancy was quite difficult for her.

As Su Wanti expected, the queen put all her energy into taking care of the fetus and rarely cared about the affairs of the palace.

In this way, Su Wanti successfully took control of the entire harem.

Su Wanti's momentum is growing stronger and stronger, and people around the queen can't help but worry.

"Empress, the Imperial Concubine is now in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, and her status is almost as high as yours. Aren't you worried? Shouldn't we make preparations early?" The nanny beside the Queen was very worried.

The queen disagreed, "Being a queen is not that simple. The queens of our dynasty are all from noble families, with the support of their prominent maternal families. They cannot be shaken by a concubine who is a minor official."

"The Imperial Concubine is only the daughter of a fifth-rank official. Moreover, her father has passed away, none of her brothers are capable, and her mother's family is not good enough. It is difficult for her to get support in the court. What am I afraid of?"

The queen touched her bulging belly with a gentle expression, "If this baby of mine is a prince, my father and I will definitely help him ascend the throne."

"If it's a daughter..."

The queen frowned slightly, paused for a moment, and said, "If it was a daughter, I would raise her well, protect her, and ensure that she had a smooth life."

"By the way, how is Concubine Chun doing?"

The nanny said, "I heard from the imperial physician that Concubine Chun's baby looks very good and is growing fast."

The Queen frowned. "The baby looks good? Is the doctor hinting that she's pregnant with a boy?"

Now, the Queen and Concubine Chun are six months pregnant, and the gender of the baby can be determined.

Every time the imperial physician came to take the queen's pulse, when the queen asked him whether the fetus was a boy or a girl, the imperial physician would not give a direct answer, but would just hesitate and say some ambiguous nonsense.

The queen was completely confused and couldn't understand anything.

So, she suspected that she was pregnant with a girl, but the imperial physician did not dare to say it directly.

Mammy shook her head. "I asked the imperial physician the same question. He said it just means the fetus is in the right position and has nothing to do with the gender of the baby."

"My lady, if you are worried that she is carrying a boy, why not?"

The nanny didn't dare to say what came next, but the queen knew what she meant.

The queen waved her hand and said, "Mammy, I finally got pregnant. I want to accumulate merit for this child. Don't say such things in the future, and don't have such thoughts. I know you are doing this for my own good, but the situation is different now."

"If there are many concubines in the harem and many children, I may do whatever it takes to protect my children's status."

"But now the emperor only has one princess and one little prince, and Concubine Chun and I are the only ones pregnant in the harem. I cannot do anything to harm the heir."

----

The queen was confident in Su Wanti because Su Wanti's family background was not good.

Su Wanti also has some plans for this.

She wanted her child to become emperor, so she had to have a capable maternal family.

Based on her understanding of her father and brother, they would only use her power to do things that benefit themselves and would not be able to help her.

It might even hold her back.

Only then did she make up her mind to take advantage of Su Hanri's accident to induce Madam Su to take action and get rid of her father.

As for Su Hanri, although he returned to the Su family, he suffered a great shock in prison and was specially taken care of by Fu Xiang. Now he is confused and unconscious, neither human nor ghost, and is no longer a normal person.

Mrs. Su sent him to live with her relatives from her mother's family in Jiangnan to recuperate.

The Su family's half-brothers have all separated and moved out.

Now the Su family only has Mrs. Su, several concubines of the Su family, Su Hanri’s wife and a three-year-old child.

Without an adult male to set up a household, the family's power gradually declined, which made it easier for Su Wanti to operate.

She first selected several intelligent men from the Su family's collateral relatives, aged between ten and twenty years old.

Then, Mrs. Su came forward to provide them with financial support so that they could study and take the imperial examinations.

If someone passes the imperial examination and is able to become an official, we will arrange for him to be employed in the future.

Su Hanri's youngest son will start elementary school in a year. The Su family has found a teacher for him and decided to train him carefully so that he can bring honor to the family when he grows up.
