Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Taizu looked at Defang, "Your elder brother has two concubines, why can't you have one?"

"Father, what I mean is that I don't want to." Defang faltered

"I don't want to? Marriage matters, parents decide, how can you think about it, besides, father is also for the Zhao family, I only have two sons, you and Dezhao, and I hope you will have more grandchildren for father"

Defang's face was full of embarrassment, "But, son."

Empress Song quickly said, "Defang, this is your father's love for you. I hope that your children and grandchildren will be full, and more people will take care of you."

Defang looked at Empress Song, lowered her head and stopped talking.

Taizu looked at Mingzhi and asked, "Mingzhi, can you agree to be De Fangna's concubine?"

Mingzhi saluted and said, "Going back to my father, my ministers also hope that someone can take care of His Highness together, and have children for His Highness, so that the house will be full of children and grandchildren."

Taizu looked at Defang, "Your elder brother has two concubines, why can't you have one?"

"Father, what I mean is that I don't want to." Defang faltered

"I don't want to? Marriage matters, parents decide, how can you think about it, besides, father is also for the Zhao family, I only have two sons, you and Dezhao, and I hope you will have more grandchildren for father"

Defang's face was full of embarrassment, "But, son."

Empress Song quickly said, "Defang, this is your father's love for you. I hope that your children and grandchildren will be full, and more people will take care of you."

Defang looked at Empress Song, lowered her head and stopped talking.

Taizu looked at Mingzhi and asked, "Mingzhi, can you agree to be De Fangna's concubine?"

Mingzhi saluted and said, "Going back to my father, my ministers also hope that someone can take care of His Highness together, and have children for His Highness, so that the house will be full of children and grandchildren."

Taizu nodded with a smile, "It's better to be wise and knowledgeable, to be virtuous and virtuous, Defang, after the granddaughter of Old General Fu passes through the door, you have to treat her well."

Defang glanced secretly at Mingzhi, then at Empress Song, knowing that there was nothing she could do about it, so she could only say, "Your minister obeys the order."

Three days later, Taizu ordered someone to send a dowry gift to Fu Mansion, and quickly chose a day to welcome Fu Xiaodi into the palace.

The Fu family was full of joy, preparing items, dowry, etc. Fu Zhaoyuan was very happy. His daughter became the concubine of the prince, and his sister was the concubine of the Taizu brother. Smile, these days are even more busy, and I personally prepare a lot of things for this only daughter, for fear that she will miss something.

Moreover, the decree has been issued, he is an imperial messenger, responsible for replacing the emperor's patrol, and has a heavy responsibility, so he has been looking through the records in the Ministry of War whenever he has time these few days.

In October of that year, Fu Xiaodi was welcomed into the inner palace, became Defang's concubine, and was granted the title of second-rank wife.

After Fu Xiaodi entered the inner palace, Defang did not have sex with her, but slept with Mingzhi as usual. A few days later, Defang was ordered to go out of Beijing and join Cao Bin's army. But for two consecutive months, Defang still didn't let Fu Xiaodi sleep with him, and only sat at the same table at mealtimes. This matter spread to the Emperor Taizu. The good news came that they were two months pregnant, Emperor Taizu and Empress Song were very happy, so no one mentioned about Fu Xiaodi.
