I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 538
The queen tapped Li Tian's forehead lightly with a smile on her face, and said softly,

"Your Majesty is really confused. Now you can't even tell if it's a boy or a girl. Isn't it too early to name it?"

Li Tian suddenly felt the same.

With a smirk,

"I'm confused!"

In fact, under normal circumstances, when the emperor found out that the concubine was pregnant, the emperor would usually give a big reward, even if there was no reward, he would give treasures and maids of honor as rewards.

But the queen is already the head of the harem, and the application rate is also the highest standard of the royal family. The queen wants the treasures in the inner library, and she doesn't even need to say hello to Li Tian. No matter how much the reward is, it can't be higher.

Li Tian thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any other way to reward the queen.

At last he whispered to the Queen,
"Ling'er, you've worked hard on you these days, what reward do you want, just tell me, and I will definitely agree."

The queen blinked her eyes twice, as if she was thinking, but after thinking for a while, she smiled and said,
"The concubine has no worries about food and clothing, Your Majesty does not need to worry, if the concubine needs anything, just ask the inner government!"

Although the queen said so, Li always felt that he didn't give the queen anything, and he always felt that he owed her.

So, he slammed his hand suddenly and said as if he remembered something,
"Ling'er, you probably don't lack other things. Why don't I give you and Lin'er a garden!"

If Li Tian and the empress had mentioned the matter of the garden before, the empress would have had a few words with Li Tian, ​​but seeing Li Tian so happy today, she didn't want to dampen Li Tian's interest.

Burying his head into Li Tian's arms again, he said softly,

"Everything is up to His Majesty to decide. It's just that building a garden costs a lot. If you don't have enough money, there are still workshops here..."

Li Tian was moved and interrupted the Queen's words,

"It's just a garden, how much it can cost, it's all in my mind, Ling'er, you can rest assured and wait for Lin'er to move in and enjoy after Lin'er is born!"

At this time, someone may ask why Li Tian is so persistent in building a garden.

He actually thought about it carefully.

There was a lot of turmoil in the palace, even though it seemed that his own harem was peaceful and calm under the management of the queen.

But no one knows how many conspiracies and tricks are brewing in the dark.

The child in the queen's womb is his legitimate son, perhaps the future heir to the throne.

He had to be careful.

Building a garden can not only give myself and the queen a place to relax, but also protect my precious son, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.

But it doesn't mean that after the garden is completed, it can be guaranteed that their mother and son will be safe from now on.

But compared to the many people in the palace, Yuanzi is much easier to control, and the possibility of them being in danger will be minimized.

Another point is actually Li Tian's selfishness.

Zhang Qinghuan lived alone outside the palace, and he only went to accompany him for a day or two when he was free. Although Zhang Qinghuan never said anything about it, he always felt a little bit sorry.

If the garden is completed, let her move in, so that he can see Zhang Qinghuan every day.

What's more, the garden belongs to Li Tian's own private space, and he can build it however he wants at that time.

He can add flush toilets, bathtubs, glass windows, electric lights and other things with modern signs according to his own ideas.

Going back to the future is probably hopeless, but it is good to enjoy modern life in this era in advance.

This can be regarded as Li Tian slightly making up for his regret of not being able to go back to the future time and space.

After listening to Li Tian's words, the queen didn't speak. She seemed to be really tired, and she was throwing up all day, so she didn't have much to do alone.

Leaning sweetly in Li Tian's arms, he fell asleep not long after.

Li Tian didn't dare to move. After midnight, he finally couldn't stand it anymore, and fell asleep in a daze with mixed thoughts.

……

Different from the laughter and laughter in the palace, the Chai family is cloudy tonight, and the whole house is filled with sorrow.

About an hour ago, a side room in the Chai Mansion suddenly caught fire. The fire was burning extremely vigorously, and it seemed that the fire was burning towards the side room.

The whole house panicked immediately, no matter if it was the servants, maids or stewards, they all ran out to put out the fire.

However, after they spent about half an hour, it was not easy to extinguish the fire.

The servant who was in charge of taking care of the third young master hurried back, only to find that the third young master was not breathing.

That night, the owner of the second room and the others were not at home. When they received the news and rushed back, more than an hour had passed.

Chai Xiong, the head of the Second Household Patriarch, trembled with anger after learning about this.

These days, he tried his best to delay the third young master's life, in order to force the third lady to hand over the Chen Ji in his hand before he died.

It's all right now, before Chen Ji got it, he was gone, how could he not lose his temper.

So he called out all the members of the Chai family, no matter men, women, old or young, and interrogated them one by one, trying to find out the culprit.

The reason why he did this was because the bribed doctor said that the situation of the third young master could last at least three to five days.

The death was so sudden, and it happened that the Chai family was on fire at this time, no matter how you look at it, it seems that someone is behind the scenes.

He was not without doubts, it might be done by the third lady.

But he was confident that he and others sealed it well, and he didn't believe that the third lady knew about the third young master's situation.

The family servants of the Chai family were called over for questioning one by one, all of them were so frightened by Chai Xiong's ferocious face that they didn't even dare to take a breath.

After asking for a long time, I couldn't find out why.

Chai Xiong became more and more anxious.

At this time, someone came to send word that the old lady let him go.

In this family, the old lady's words are equivalent to the imperial decree, no one dares not to listen, and Chai Xiong can only temporarily suppress his anger and rush to the back hall.

In the back hall, the old lady was wearing simple pajamas, leaning on a huanghuali crutch in her hand, sitting on the armchair with a calm expression.

When Chai Xiong came in, her expression remained unchanged.

Chai Xiong bowed his head and let out a cry,
"Mother!"

The old lady tapped her cane lightly, and it made a crisp sound on the ground.

"Is the matter about the third child true?"

Chai Xiong is the uncle of the third young master Chai Jun, although he also has a younger brother, but at this moment he knows that the old lady is talking about the third young master without distinguishing.

He nodded and said,

"It's true, the doctor has checked it, and said that it was an hour ago, and he died!"

The corner of the old lady's mouth twitched twice, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just let out a sigh.
