Chapter 193 The Eldest Princess Liu Xingdi

Although the child was not pregnant at the right time, it was Liu Yilong's first child after all.Although he has been married to Yuan Shi for two years, and there are several concubines and concubines, no one has conceived.

Liu Yilong once suspected that his body was too dilapidated, which caused his wives and concubines to be unable to have children.Who would have thought that now that Yuan Shi is pregnant, and it is very likely that she is a legitimate son, how could he be willing to abort the child?
Liu Yilong took Yuan Qigui's hand and comforted him, "Since our baby chooses to come at this time, it is destined by heaven. You can raise your baby at ease, don't tell outsiders about this for now, and I will arrange everything else."

Yuan Qigui was also a little uneasy. On the one hand, she was very happy that she was pregnant, but on the other hand, the reason why she delayed saying it until now was not because she was waiting for the baby to settle down, but because she was afraid that when the month was still young, Liu Yilong would really do it for her. Fame, if you are cruel, you will kill the child.

At this time, seeing Liu Yilong taking good care of her, he put his heart in his stomach.

Yuan Qigui snuggled into Liu Yilong's arms and said, "I heard that this woman has a lot of taboos when she is pregnant. You can't use scissors, you can't touch needles and threads, and I heard that you can't even eat fresh fruit. This is the first time this concubine is pregnant. Many things are unclear, the Queen Mother is not in good health recently, and the concubine dare not bother her old man. So I want to ask the emperor for a favor to allow the concubine's mother to enter the palace to accompany her."

Yuan Qigui's biological mother came from a humble background. Yuan Qigui was born in a village in the countryside, and was brought up by his father until he was six years old.

If it weren't for Liu Yilong not being favored at the beginning, Yuan Qigui would never be able to marry the prince no matter what, let alone fly to a branch to become a phoenix.

Now Yuan Qigui is the queen, but her biological mother still doesn't even have the status of a concubine.No matter how glorious the aunt's mother is, it has nothing to do with Yuan Qigui.So she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of pregnancy to bring her mother-in-law into the palace to enjoy, and also took the opportunity to praise her mother.

It is understandable that a daughter is biased towards her mother, but it can be placed in the royal family, or even clan officials, and that is the fault that will be criticized.

Liu Yilong's throne was originally named in a wrong way, if his queen is impeached again, there will be many people who will take the opportunity to make a fuss about the little prince's birth.

After weighing it up, Liu Yilong persuaded, "The birth of this child needs to be concealed, otherwise the admonisher will definitely chatter in the court. If you are worried, I will send some experienced old mothers to look after you. Just let your mother Entering the palace is too eye-catching."

Although Yuan Qigui was a little displeased, but now everything is about children, so he had to endure it, and said aggrievedly, "Okay. All the ministers and concubines are at your command."

As soon as Yuan Qigui left, a servant came to report that Liu Xingdi, the eldest princess of Kuaiji County, had something to see.Liu Yilong hurriedly asked for the eldest sister to come in.

Brother Liu Xing is the eldest daughter of Emperor Wu Liu Yu, also the eldest sister of Liu Yilong.In the early years when the father was alive, he loved Liu Xingdi very much, not only because Liu Xingdi was the first child of the father, but also because Liu Xingdi was the only child who had suffered hardships with the father.

Liu Yu was originally from a poor family, and before he was reused, there were days when the family couldn't get rid of the pot.The young Liu Xingdi followed his parents to eat bran and swallow vegetables, and lived in tight clothes.

Later, Liu Yu deliberately cultivated his son-in-law Xu Kuizhi in order to become emperor.Unexpectedly, Xu Kuizhi died in a battle, making Liu Xingdi a widow.

After Liu Yu came to the throne, he always felt that he owed his eldest daughter, so he obeyed her every request, and even made an exception to raise his grandson Xu Zhanzhi by his side.All kinds of transgressions caused Liu Xingdi to become more and more arrogant and arrogant.

Liu Yilong would have avoided such an elder sister who looked at people with her nostrils.After all, when his father was alive, Liu Xingdi disdained the princes born to their concubines.

But now Liu Yilong is very afraid of the power in the Queen Mother's hands, for fear that Xu Xianzhi and the others will take the Queen Mother's order to abolish him sometime.Therefore, Liu Yilong made a plan before he entered Jiankang City, and he would spare no effort to evacuate the Empress Dowager.

But it is not easy to empty the queen mother.If Yuan Qigui is allowed to compete with the queen mother for the right to control the harem in the name of the queen, Liu Yilong will have a reputation of disrespecting the queen mother.After much deliberation, Liu Yilong found that only his eldest sister was the most suitable.

So after Liu Yilong ascended the throne, he entrusted all the affairs of the harem to the eldest princess Liu Xingdi on the grounds that Empress Yuan was young and inexperienced.No matter how big or small the matter is, the palace servants should seek the opinion of Elder Sister Huang.

The new emperor respected courtesy so much, which made Liu Xingdi even more inflated.In just three months, Liu Xingdi relied on his status as Gao Zu's eldest daughter to bring all the forces that originally belonged to the Queen Mother's faction to his side.

Although Liu Yilong felt that his eldest sister had long hair and short knowledge, and she was no different from a woman in the market when she was messing around.But he was happy to see the queen mother replaced by the eldest sister. After all, no matter how noble the princess's status is, she is an outsider when she marries. She is also a widow and poses no threat to Liu Yilong's throne.

Not long after Liu Yilong met with Sister Xuan Huang, Liu Xingdi came in dragging a flowing double skirt with Danbi gauze pattern.

Liu Xingdi's face is self-contained, without the modesty and gentleness that a woman who is nearly forty years old should have, and it makes people feel aggressive at first sight.However, Liu Yilong originally planned to kill the elder sister Huang, so he was naturally willing to play with her.

At this time, Liu Yilong got up from the armchair, walked around the desk, and helped Liu Xingdi to sit down. He did not forget to thank him, "There are many things in the harem next year. It is really hard for the emperor. The queen has never taken care of such a big one." In the harem, if it weren't for the presence of the emperor, there would definitely be a lot of jokes."

Brother Liu Xing sat proudly in the middle of the armchair and said, "Your queen, who was originally from a small family, is timid in doing things. If it weren't for me, the New Year's banquet would be despised by the wives and ruined by the royal family." face."

Liu Yilong hurriedly agreed, "Sister Huang is right. Sister Huang is here today, but do you have any important matters to discuss with me?"

Brother Liu Xing took it for granted, "You are newly enthroned, and you have a lot of work to do. I was too busy a year ago, so your nephew's official position has been postponed until now. Zhan's life is hard, and he lost his father since he was a child. The emperor took pity on our mother and son, He also values ​​Zhanzhi very much. But look, how long has he been a servant in the province? He has never been promoted."

Brother Liu Xing sighed, "The emperor is a man who can use people on their merits, and Zhan Zhi's talent is outstanding. The emperor can't avoid suspicion and use him just because he is a relative of the emperor."

Liu Yilong smirked at this time until his face ached, he was not sure about others, his nephew was notoriously high-sighted, but even in the current position of servant, he was barely able to do it, how could he be promoted?

　Look at this routine, it is long and wide...
