Childbearing system: The royal family is shocked to see their offspring wither away!

What?! The Queen actually wants to summon me?!

Doctor Zheng was so frightened that his back was wet with sweat.

Just now, the Ninth Prince and his wife had diagnosed that she was pregnant. They had just threatened me not to tell anyone, and the next second, the Queen summoned me.

If he really let this matter slip by accident, then the Ninth Prince and his wife would be in big trouble!!!

He was so frightened that he quickly stuffed the money into the bag, wiped his sweat off his forehead, thought of something to say, and followed the messenger.

At night, the palace is quiet.

Only the faint chirping of cicadas can be heard.

They came to Fengning Palace where the queen lived.

The Queen has a gentle, elegant and generous personality and is an extremely kind person. Being a maid in Fengning Palace, it is relatively easy to work under the Queen, and it is a legitimate and lucrative job.

The imperial physician glanced at the person next to him and couldn't help asking.

"Maid, can you tell me...how is the Queen feeling tonight?"

The maid next to her smiled and said, "Of course it's great. The Imperial Astronomical Observatory just said that there are royal grandchildren and twins, a boy and a girl, to be born."

"Right now, His Majesty is also in the Queen's palace, talking to her about the Dragon Grandson."

"You imperial doctors have a lucrative job. If anyone can really diagnose which prince's wife is pregnant, you will definitely get a reward of several hundred taels of silver."

"..."

This should have been a good thing, but when Doctor Zheng heard this, he immediately broke out in sweat.

He felt... extremely terrified at this moment.

If the Ninth Prince and his wife wanted to kill me, even if their status was extremely low, they were still members of the royal family after all, and I would definitely not be able to survive.

But no matter how much I thought about it, I just couldn't figure out why they didn't let the imperial physician tell anyone about this? !

Who else could harm the royal heir? !

After arriving at Fengning Palace, Doctor Zheng lowered his head, smelled the faint fragrance of bamboo in the palace, and knelt on the thick carpet.

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of the queen, the finely trimmed hem of her bright yellow phoenix gown.

He lowered his head even lower: "Your humble servant greets Her Majesty the Queen."

Coincidentally, at this moment, the emperor walked out from behind a sandalwood screen, muttering to himself.

"…Empress, what do you think? If any of my daughters-in-law becomes pregnant in the future, how about I give her this jade ruyi that Ryukyu sent as a tribute?"

"..."

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty."

Doctor Zheng added another sentence.

The emperor and the empress were both attracted by the voice and immediately glanced down at Imperial Doctor Zheng.

The emperor raised his hand slightly towards him and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Queen."

After Imperial Doctor Zheng got up, the Queen's gentle eyes immediately fell on him.

A pair of phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, with a gentle smile.

The queen said calmly, "I heard that you went to the Ninth Prince's residence."

"The Ninth Prince's wife is ill. How is Zhining?"

There was a hint of hope in the queen's voice.

The emperor glanced at the queen, snorted coldly, and looked very disdainful.

"Ask the Ninth Prince's wife. That's simply impossible."

It is known to everyone that the Ninth Prince and his wife do not have a good relationship.

There is absolutely no way the two of them could have children.

Doctor Zheng obviously knew that the emperor and the empress were both gathered in Fengning Palace at this moment. They were not asking about the health of the Ninth Prince's wife, an unpopular concubine, but wanted to ask whether she was pregnant!

Doctor Zheng's heart was pounding. Thinking of the threats from Chen Zhining and the others, he immediately kowtowed and knelt down.

"Your humble servant... um, was ordered by the Ninth Prince's Mansion to go check on the Ninth Prince's wife."

"Ninth Prince's wife, I have been feeling unwell recently. I will prescribe some warming and nourishing herbs."

"I see."

The two of them nodded in disappointment. But they didn't hold out much hope anyway, they were just asking.

"…The Ninth Prince's Mansion still needs your care, Imperial Doctor Zheng."

After the queen said this, she immediately asked the palace maid to take him away.

At this time, the Imperial Observatory and Doctor Zheng came in separately, one after the other, one left the Queen's palace and the other entered the Queen's palace.

The Queen and the Emperor both sat on the couch, sighing helplessly and shaking their heads.

"The Ninth Prince is so useless!!!"

When the emperor said this, he slammed the table and was very angry.

"My kingdom is now stable, and there are no countries around me that would invade. The weather has been good in recent years, with good weather and good harvests!"

"The only thing I'm worried about is the royal offspring!"

"I am so unlucky...!!!"

"I can't believe that Zhou Song, who we even fought against, has only one weakness, which is this offspring!!"

"Who would believe it if I told them?!"

The queen also shook her head. As the saying goes...it was her duty to increase the number of concubines in the harem.

She felt that she was of a gentle nature and never jealous, and that the emperor could have as many children as he wanted.

At present, there are only the eldest prince, also known as the crown prince, and the fifth princess, who are his legitimate children, in the harem. The rest are children of other concubines.

She was not jealous, and it was good enough that the emperor had many dragon veins, but she did not expect... that these imperial grandchildren had so few children!

The eldest prince, the crown prince, has been married for ten years and has more than a dozen concubines and concubines, but he does not have a single child, not even a illegitimate child.

Not only the crown prince, but also several other married princes were like this.

When they thought of this, their faces suddenly changed and they were completely puzzled!

No one dares to harm their royal family!

Could it be that the words left by the immortal a hundred years ago were true... Every time a dynasty changes, it means that the dynasty's fortune is weak and its virtue is lacking, and there will be divine punishment. If the royal family has no descendants, it will die out and even the Zhou and Song dynasties will be overthrown? ? !

How else can we explain why the princes are all in good health, but they just can’t have children!

Just when they were all feeling unhappy, the official from the Imperial Observatory slowly knelt down and kowtowed to the two of them.

"I am the Director of the Imperial Observatory, Chief Lin, and I congratulate your majesty and the queen!"

"Today, officials from the Imperial Astronomical Observatory observed the sky together at night and immediately found out that the twins, a boy and a girl, were born in the west of Kyoto!"

"The western location is exactly the residence of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, His Royal Highness the King of England, and His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince!"

"It seems that...the twins, a boy and a girl, have ended up in the residences of the two of them."

"..."

The emperor and empress sat up suddenly!

The queen's eyes lit up, full of brilliance, and she smiled from ear to ear.

He said "OK, OK, OK" three times in a row!

"it is good!!!"

"Spiritual Blade, after that, immediately call the women of the Third and Ninth Princes' houses into the palace!!"

After thinking about it, she felt that it would be inappropriate to invite only the two families, so she simply invited them all together.

"Call everyone over and get together."

"Let's take a good look with Master Lin to see who is the one who can be pregnant with twins!!!"

……

Ninth Prince's Mansion.

As soon as Doctor Zheng left, the palace maid beside the Queen brought the Queen's oral instructions.

Let Chen Zhining and the others go to the Imperial Garden for the banquet tomorrow.

Chen Zhining: “…”

Jiang Zhao: “…”

Chen Zhining couldn't help but look up at Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao was packing his clothes. He shook his head and said calmly, "Nothing should happen."

"Didn't I say that? I also invited several other female relatives from the prince's mansion to attend the banquet."

Chen Zhining nodded.

"Then let's get down to business... Will you... will you sleep with me tonight?"

Jiang Zhao: "Of course I won't sleep with you. I'll sleep in the study."

He turned around and went to the study.

Chen Zhining was not surprised at all. He took off all other clothes, leaving only his underwear, and lay on the bed, preparing to go to sleep.

Then Jiang Zhao knocked on the door: "A mouse broke into the study today. I came to squeeze in with you."

Chen Zhining: "......? Then you can sleep in the side room."

Jiang Zhao's voice was still calm: "The side room has been uninhabited for so long, it smells rotten, I'd better make do with you tonight."

"Then your husband will sleep on the bed, and I will sleep on the chaise longue."

Jiang Zhao: "...No need, I'll go to the couch."

Jiang Zhao didn't sleep well that night, probably because he was angry.

When Jiang Zhao woke up the next day, a layer of faint dark circles appeared under his eyes. Feicui and Liuli, who came to serve Chen Zhining, couldn't help but smile secretly.

Feicui combed Chen Zhining's hair with a smile.

Liuli asked while combing her hair.

"Princess, what color clothes would you like to wear today?"

"Today I am going to the Imperial Garden to attend the Queen's banquet. I should dress more formally to meet the Queen."

Chen Zhining nodded, "You need to wear something decent, elegant, and well-behaved. Why not wear that light blue dress?"

After Feicui tied her hair into a dignified bun and put on a few hairpins that were not inappropriate for her status, Chen Zhining went to the Imperial Garden for the banquet.

Jiang Zhao also followed Chen Zhining and took a carriage to the palace.

Chen Zhining couldn't help but ask: "Why are you following me?"

Jiang Zhao said confidently: "I'm going to see my brother the crown prince, you can't stop me!"

"We are brothers, brothers, what do you have to say?"

Chen Zhining: “…”

Chen Zhining nodded and stopped asking.

On the way, they were suddenly blocked by a horse-drawn carriage.
