Chapter 622: I Am About to Abdicate!
Chapter 622 I am about to abdicate!
The queen and Xiaoman looked at each other: "Then let's go."
The two of them took the eldest prince to the Queen Mother's palace. Inside the Queen Mother's palace, Concubine Chen was already here. Speaking of this period of time, Concubine Chen often came to accompany the Queen Mother.
This made the Queen Mother's attitude towards her much better, and after Concubine Wan died, Concubine Chen was also depressed for a while, and I don't know why.
Anyway, he is very honest now: "The Queen has arrived, and the Lord Yongxi has arrived."
The eunuch's voice sounded, Xiaoman and the queen walked in, and saluted the queen mother; "The concubine has seen the queen mother."
"Yongxi pays respects to the queen mother, the queen mother has a happy life and a healthy life!"
The queen mother smiled and looked at the two of them: "Get up quickly, everyone is not an outsider, and everyone who has to hurry up will be given a seat. By the way, Xiao Man, are you about to grow old?"
"I heard from Jiujiu that you will come back when you are old enough. I don't know where I am now, but have I contacted you?"
Xiaoman shook his head: "I haven't contacted you, but I guess I should be on my way back!"
Just talking about this, Xiaoman is still a little worried. After all, the last time the news came that someone followed them, so I don't know how the situation is now?
But if Qian Jiujiu and the others didn't take the initiative to send a message back, Xiaoman and the others would not be able to contact each other, so they could only blame silently for worrying.
The queen mother just sighed, and soon Yin'er attracted her attention: "Hey, this is the emperor's grandmother's little girl, Yin'er, here."
Yin'er also climbed down at this time, and bowed respectfully to the empress dowager: "Yin'er kowtows to the emperor's grandmother, the emperor's grandmother is auspicious."
The Empress Dowager was amused, and then Concubine Chen suddenly said: "There are still too few children in this harem, and Yin'er also needs some playmates."
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned for a moment, what does Concubine Chen mean? Xiaoman was thinking, during this period of time, the emperor might not be the only one who favors the empress.
Didn't go to other palaces? The queen was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "Yes, there are a little less children."
"I don't know what's going on? There are quite a few lucky women on the emperor's side, but unfortunately, none of them were able to conceive."
When Xiaoman heard this, he coughed twice. Speaking of which, there is still a reason for this! It's just that she didn't know whether to say it well or not.
The queen mother looked at Xiaoman thoughtfully, and then she looked at Concubine Chen: "Concubine Chen, if you have nothing to do, you can go back first. If there is anything you need from me in the future, the Ai family will consider it."
When Concubine Chen heard this, she just glanced at Xiaoman, then turned and left: "The concubine will leave."
After Concubine Chen left, the Empress Dowager dismissed all the maids and eunuchs in the palace again, and looked at Xiao Man: "Xiao Man, do you have something to say that you didn't say to Ai's family?"
Xiao Man was amazed in his heart, why are the women in the harem so sensitive? Why don't she have a bad throat? Coughing twice means that there is something to say.
The queen also spoke: "Yes, Xiaoman, I saw that your eyes flickered just now, is there something wrong with the emperor's body?"
As soon as the emperor's health was mentioned, the queen mother also became anxious, Xiaoman quickly shook her head: "No, no, the emperor's health is very good, really, don't worry, queen mother."
"It's just about the issue of heirs, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult!"
The queen mother and the queen looked at each other, and the queen was even more puzzled: "But I have already given birth to a child, and Lin Chuwan also had a child last time."
Xiaoman blinked his eyes; "Let's put it this way, everything has a probability, and it may be that the blood of the Lin family is more compatible with the emperor."
"So it's easier for the daughters of your Lin family to conceive when they are with the emperor. As for the others, it's not good, and the emperor has been poisoned for a long time."
"Although it is cured, it is not without some sequelae. If you want to have a child, you have to let the emperor abstain from sexual intercourse, understand?"
"The emperor needs quality."
The more Xiaoman talked, the more embarrassing he became. How should he explain such a problem to the two women? Sure enough, looking at the queen and queen mother, they still looked puzzled.
I can only sigh: "Simply put, the emperor and the empress are more likely to have children. This is because of their physique! Do you understand?"
The Empress Dowager still understood this sentence, and looked at Xiao Man: "So you mean that the emperor can't favor the people in the harem so often, and needs to recuperate."
"And then go to the queen to cultivate, so that it is possible to get more children, is that what you mean?"
Xiaoman blinked his eyes, he really is a long-lived person, he speaks so artistically, even hard work, but that's the reason.
Just nodded: "Yes, that's what it means. The emperor has a special physique, so he can only have children with the queen. Of course, he may have children with other people."
"But this hope is not great, unless we find someone who is like the queen again, such as Lin Chuwan!"
The queen mother believed that it was impossible to deceive herself about such a big event, so she was thinking about a big event! Since the emperor's harem is useless.
Can it be dissolved? In this way, it can also ensure that the emperor's only children can grow up safely? Besides, those women.
It's pitiful to have no children in your life, and the emperor will be buried with him when he dies! Of course, the queen mother did not make up her mind about this matter.
Let's wait for a year or two to talk about it. If there is no one in the entire harem except the queen, she will be able to make decisions for those women.
Of course, the emperor didn't know about this matter at this time. After retiring from the early court, he went to the imperial study with Gu Xiangning and Lin Zezhi, and began to deal with the things that had accumulated recently.
Then he learned that Xiaoman had entered the palace, and looked at the two of them: "You guys will follow me to the Queen Mother's palace for dinner later."
Lin Zezhi raised his eyebrows, he actually took him with him today. Speaking of which, Lin Zezhi is not young, yet he is not married yet, and Mrs. Lin doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
I really don't understand what these people are thinking? Lin Zezhi is over 20 years old, and he is not in a hurry. After dealing with the matter, it is almost time to eat.
So the three of them headed towards the Empress Dowager's palace together, they didn't even sit in the sedan chair, chatting while walking, the emperor looked at Gu Xiangning.
"Xiangning, after you went out with Xiaoman this time, how do you feel? Speaking of which, Xiaoman will be ready in three months."
"I remember that as soon as Xiaoman and Ji are married, you will get married."
Gu Xiangning nodded: "Yes, I guess my sister and the others are already on their way back. When the things here are almost over, it's time to wait."
"At that time, I will take Xiaoman back to Mingyue Island to get married!"
The emperor was stunned for a moment: "Go back to Mingyue Island to get married? Are you not in the capital? Doesn't that mean I can't even join in the fun?"
When Gu Xiangning heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty, this is a very serious matter, isn't it something you can use to join in the fun?"
"We are from Mingyue Island, we must go back to Mingyue Island to get married, so that Xiaoman will be recognized by Mingyue Island and become the wife of the island owner in the future."
"When I turn forty years old, I will resign and take Xiaoman back to take over as the owner of Mingyue Island. If you still need someone to assist you, you will be too useless."
Lin Zezhi thought that Gu Xiangning would continue to stay when the time came, but unexpectedly, such a sentence came, and there was a sudden puff, and he couldn't hold it back, and sprayed it out directly.
The emperor rolled his eyes: "I never thought of being the emperor for so long, okay? When my family's Yin'er is 18 years old, let him inherit the throne."
"When the time comes, I will take the queen to roam the sky! Don't think that you are the only ones who want to go out and play. Now that you think about it, you are the smart people."
"No, my sixth younger brother is the smartest. He ran away early with Jiujiu and trapped me in this palace. There are endless memorials to be approved every day."
"Besides eating better and living better, I don't feel there is any better place at all."
Gu Xiangning coughed: "Actually, there is one thing I didn't tell you. The place you live is really not good. The food is not the best either."
The emperor's eyes widened: "What do you mean?"
Gu Xiangning coughed twice: "Because you are too powerful, people are afraid. I gave you the best one for the first time, and I won't be able to give you a better one next time."
"When the time comes, you will definitely blame it. Even if you can't, the people below you will! So the ones given to you are usually defective products, so-so."
"Then it's the good ones, the better ones, the best ones, get it! So the food you eat, except for what Xiaoman sent to the palace, is actually not good."
The emperor looked at Gu Xiangning dumbfounded: "You man, destroying me is your greatest pleasure! Gu Xiangning, I tell you, you should go too far!"
"I'm going to abdicate!"
Gu Xiangning raised his eyebrows: "What does it matter to me whether you retreat or not? It's better for you to abdicate earlier, and I can also return to the farm sooner!"
"After all, the purpose of my Mingyue Island is only to support a monarch. If you abdicate, our Mingyue Island can just be sealed off! How nice it is to live a carefree life from now on."
Speaking of it, every assistant emperor selected by Mingyue Island will have an extraordinary friendship with the person who assists him. This is a very miraculous thing!
Therefore, the Li family in the previous dynasty had many things. Mingyue Island belonged to the two Chus together, and they rebelled during the period of the emperor selected by Mingyue Island. I have to say.
The Li family's brains are showing off! Speaking of it, it seems that Wanxi has also entered Beijing this time, but I don't know where she went! I have to talk to Xiaoman about this matter.
While speaking, we have already arrived at the queen mother's palace, and the dishes have been prepared. The queen mother is also very happy to see the three of them: "They are all here, sit down quickly and have a meal together."
The Empress Dowager liked this kind of scene when she was getting old. The Empress happened to sit in front of a plate of fish, and immediately covered her mouth and began to vomit.
