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

Chapter 457: Ask Princess Rongbao to come over to discuss the Crown Princess

The emperor thought that if the prince married a princess whose mother's family was too prominent and too powerful, it might overshadow the prince's brilliance and even affect his own status.

Although the Crown Prince wants to stay in the position of Crown Prince forever, the Crown Princess may not want to stay in the position of Crown Princess forever.

Maybe she wanted to persuade the prince to become the queen and the emperor?! The emperor frowned, his eyes flickering.

Although he had never been afraid of the crown prince, he might have evil intentions from the crown princess. People would always lose themselves in front of power. The emperor thought of his brothers... and he could not help but lower his head, his eyes darkening.

Li Haitang, who was standing next to him, saw that the emperor was already thinking, so he gave himself a thumbs up in satisfaction.

After that, Li Haitang said, "Your Majesty, do you still need me to serve you?"

"No need, bring me a plate of snacks, I feel a little hungry."

The emperor drove Li Haitang out and asked her to serve a plate of plum cakes, while he himself thought about the matter carefully in the palace.

The emperor felt that what Li Haitang said made sense. If he married a princess whose mother's family was prominent, it would be easy for her to rebel if she really wanted to. At least her chances of success would be much higher than those of the third and fourth brothers.

Wouldn't I be finished by then?! I still want to stay on the throne for a few more years.

Not all women are as obedient and sensible as Chen Zhining... Thinking of Chen Zhining, the emperor suddenly said to the outside: "Is Li Haitang still here?"

"Replying to your Majesty."

Next to him, Little Li's voice came over: "Godfather is not here. He went to get you some plum blossom cakes and hasn't come back yet."

The emperor said to Little Li, "It's good that you are here. Go and call Princess Rongbao into the palace and tell her that I have something to ask her."

"Yes!"

Little Leo immediately saluted and turned around to look for Chen Zhining.

Less than half an hour later, Li Haitang was already waiting in the imperial study. He was serving the emperor plum cake when he saw Chen Zhining coming in hurriedly.

"Father, what do you want to talk to me about?"

After Chen Zhining bowed to the emperor, the emperor waved his hand and said, "Oh, daughter-in-law! No need to be so polite. I called you here this time because I have something very important to tell you. I want to hear your opinion."

As the emperor spoke, he looked at Chen Zhining with uncertainty and asked Chen Zhining to sit down quickly.

"That Miss Luo..."

The emperor opened his mouth slowly and tentatively.

"Are you on good terms with her?"

"what?"

Chen Zhining was stunned, with no expression on his face, but he already had an idea in his mind. He guessed that the emperor wanted to ask about his relationship with Miss Luo, and then ask about Miss Luo becoming the Crown Princess.

Chen Zhining said to the emperor: "It's fine, what's wrong, father?"

The emperor sighed from afar, "You have a good relationship with her, so you must speak for Miss Luo."

The emperor shook his head and smiled, "Then there is no need to ask you again."

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Father, if you have anything to ask, just ask directly."

"As for the emperor, even if I have a good relationship with Miss Luo, I must listen to what the emperor says. I am also much closer to you than to Miss Luo."

When the emperor heard this, he felt relaxed both physically and mentally, and he said this with great pleasure.

"You are sensible and know that you and I are closer. So I will ask you."

"What do you think of Miss Luo?"

"Miss Luo is fine."

Chen Zhining answered truthfully: "He is smart and motivated, and he has brought up his children very well. In the palace, even though Le'er has just arrived, everyone thinks he is very likable and doesn't think he has a country air."

"That's true."

The emperor nodded, and then said: "This woman is unusual, she is a bit wild."

"She was able to lurk in the enemy's territory for so long alone and endure so much hardship. She is definitely not an ordinary person!"

"If I let such an extraordinary person become my concubine, will she bear a grudge against me?!"

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "That won't happen, because Your Majesty is the emperor. Although she is a smart person, a smart person must also be loyal to the emperor."

"If it weren't for you, my father, who has brought peace and prosperity to the country, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to be so smart."

"Although Miss Luo is a wild girl, she is not an ignorant girl. She can still understand that you, the emperor, govern the world, manage the people, and keep this place in order. She relies on you, so she will only respect you and want to be close to you, and she will not have such bad thoughts."

"You said it very well."

The emperor nodded, and then said to Chen Zhining: "Li Haitang said something to me before, and I think it makes sense. What do you think...if the prince marries a very strong and powerful princess consort whose mother's family is strong, will she be able to walk sideways in the palace in the future?"

Chen Zhining was stunned, but he didn't understand the emperor's question. Did he think that the status of the young grandson would be threatened by the crown princess? But by then, the young grandson would be adopted by the crown princess.

Chen Zhining pondered for a long time, and then heard the emperor continue: "It's not that I'm suspicious, but I always feel that if the prince marries a princess whose mother's family is very powerful... it won't be a good thing."

"I used to think that a Crown Princess with a strong mother's family was good, but now I don't think so anymore."

When Chen Zhining heard this, he understood.

Oh I got it.

The emperor originally felt that if the prince married a very powerful princess, it would threaten his position. After all, the prince's power was already at its peak.

No matter how much the emperor dotes on Jiang Zhao, he can never compare to the prince.

Then Chen Zhining said to the emperor with a smile.

"That's right. After all, the Crown Princess's mother's family is too powerful, just like the previous Lu family. If she is a bad person, then wouldn't it threaten the status of us royal children in the palace?!"

"That Crown Princess Lu has done many wrong things before, and you, Father, are not unaware of this. It is really troublesome."

"And we usually don't dare to do anything to her. Even if we want to execute the Crown Princess later, her mother's family will have to spend a lot of effort."

The emperor listened to her words and nodded thoughtfully, then listened to Chen Zhining continue, "So, if you want to choose a crown princess, why not choose a crown princess whose mother's family is noble, not strong, but who is on par with the crown prince and has a good reputation?"
