concubines

Chapter 308
She shed tears while talking, Zhou Shuxuan seemed to have something blocked in his throat, unable to utter a single word.

It should be because of seeing Xiaohong's situation just now, that's why she was greatly stimulated and became what she is now.

He is also sad without the child, but the matter has passed, and he is powerless.Life had to go on, and he had to live with the huge pressure of his heirs.

Everything else is fine, he just doesn't want her to torture him like this anymore.On the surface everything looks fine, but who knows what's going on in private.She has to drink to fall asleep, so what is she thinking at night?I have nightmares as soon as I fall asleep, and I have dreams at night when I think about it every day.

Feeling really uncomfortable, Zhou Shuxuan held back a sentence for a long time, "Don't think about it." But he saw Miao Li with her head down, as if she had fallen asleep.

Well, think less about things.

Zhou Shuxuan reached out and hugged her to the bed, covered her with the quilt, and sat by the bed for a while before going out.

When he walked to the door, he happened to see He Yuan was about to go out.Zhou Shuxuan took another deep breath, tried to make himself look normal, and asked, "How is Xiaohong?"

"Think about the emperor's concern, saying that it's all right, thank you for saving the child so I can keep it."

"It's good to be fine, but... I'm really sorry." Zhou Shuxuan said with difficulty.

He Yuan was a little unbelievable, he was actually apologizing to himself, and quickly said: "The matter has nothing to do with the emperor, but fortunately their mother and child are fine, the emperor really doesn't need to worry about it."

"It's fine, it's fine, you're much luckier than me." Zhou Shuxuan said meaningfully, "I'll give you a few days off, go back and take care of others. I'm leaving first."

Zhou Shuxuan walked outside lonely, with a slight smell of alcohol on his body, which added a little more melancholy.

Wei Hai guessed this differently before, thinking that he would go back full of anger, but he didn't expect that he was not angry at all today.He didn't even say a word, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind.

As he was walking, he suddenly felt that he was reaching out to wipe his eyes, as if he was crying.

Gao Fu didn't dare to look at it, and didn't dare to ask, so he just walked back with him.

Xiaohong has been raised in the palace for a few days. After all, she is in better health and has a solid foundation, so there is no major problem.Miao Li also gave her a good scolding, and then kicked her out.Miao Li really didn't dare to let her stay in the palace anymore, for fear that something would happen to her again.

What an important thing a child is, and Xiao Hong doesn't care about it at all, which makes Miao Li even more worried, and there is no way to keep her.

Miao Li still looks like nothing happened, sitting quietly in the house every day, rarely showing her feelings.

Princess Helan was put in confinement, and Zhou Shuxuan asked her to teach her the rules.Princess Helan couldn't stand it for a while, and ran to the queen mother to complain.

I haven't seen each other for so many years, but in fact, I don't need much affection.The queen mother doesn't want to mess with these idle things, and it's not easy to be quiet, so how can she care about the affairs of the harem anymore.In a few words, Princess Helan was sent away.

One place was not good, so Princess Helan went on to file a complaint and wrote a letter to Xichang, wanting to make a statement about it.

After almost a month, Zhou Shuxuan received a reply.Of course it belonged to Princess Helan, not for him.

He opened the letter without thinking, and said he wanted to see what Xichang said.If he still protects Princess Helan, then he will not have such a good temper.Now that you are married to him, you should abide by his rules.

But fortunately, there wasn't so much favoritism in the letter, and there was no bottom line connivance, it was just for her to be patient.

This is still like what people say, Zhou Shuxuan didn't care too much about it.The letter had already been opened, thinking of sending it to Princess Helan, she would definitely make trouble again, so Zhou Shuxuan simply didn't give it to her.It's useless to make her think that she was given up by her parents.

One upset thing is dealt with, and another upset thing will appear immediately.

Zhou Shuxuan had some doubts about his own life. Did he take the wrong medicine?Why do you want to be emperor so much?What's wrong with letting countless people control him, I regret it to the extreme.

There is nothing to do in Xichang now, and there have been no disasters in various places this year, and some minor disasters have passed quickly.It can really be called Guotai Minan, and then a group of ministers came out after they were full and didn't work, so there was no problem creating problems for him.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhou Shuxuan looked down helplessly, watching the prime minister babbling endlessly there.

"The emperor has no heirs so far, so why not choose some outstanding children from the clan to raise them. As the saying goes, a prince may be born."

"What are you so anxious about? Do you feel that I'm only a few days away, and I'm about to choose a successor. No matter what I say, I'll live for five or ten years. You have to take care of your heir if you have nothing to do. Come out and talk?"

They are also anxious about him, and they have no children until now.Before, they heard rumors that the emperor had some incurable disease and could not have children. They didn't believe it before, and there was obviously news that the imperial concubine was pregnant.After so long and still no children, they believed it a little bit.

The prime minister knelt down and said: "For the sake of the emperor, it will take ten years to raise the children. The emperor must pay close attention. Otherwise, the foundation of the country will not be stable, and it will be difficult for the ministers to rest assured."

Zhou Shuxuan still couldn't figure it out, no matter how he heard it, he felt that this group of people thought that he was going to die tomorrow, as if no one would inherit the throne.He was really too anxious, and he took it out for ten days and a half months, which made him panic.

Hurrying, he closes his eyes now, his eyes are full of children, heirs and heirs, he really drove him to death.

This group of ministers has an extremely tough attitude on this matter, and they must force him to surrender.

He also knows that this is normal, even in ordinary people, if a man has no son in his 30s, the family will definitely be anxious and want to interfere in his life.The methods I can think of are nothing more than these, either to take a concubine, or to see if I am sick, or to adopt.

Now the ministers asked him to pick children from the clan to raise, which means the same thing as adoption.

Thinking about his current situation, he didn't feel anyone in the palace.Even if I live alone, I don't want to make do with it, and I really feel ashamed of Miao Li in my heart.As for Miaoli, it is estimated that they will never reconcile in their lifetime.

I have tried all methods, tentative guesses, and intentionally angered her. On the surface, she is indifferent, and she will never admit defeat to him.Hearing some truthful words from her after being drunk is not a good truthful word, it will only make him feel more uncomfortable.

I only hope that if Miao Li dies after him, she can go to his grave to offer three cups of wine.

The same is true of him, who began to want to die at a young age.

In fact, there is no problem with adoption, he is more acceptable than asking him to choose a concubine.Since you are choosing an heir, you should choose a good one.In fact, his own child may not be the best, not to mention that he may really not have children.

Zhou Shuxuan thought for a while, and said: "I think what you said is not unreasonable. You can choose a few children to come and raise them personally. Then choose from the clan, as long as they are born, the upper limit is ten years old. No matter how you live now, as long as the child is good, you can choose."

He agreed.

That's it, the problem must be solved, and it is also a problem if it is delayed.

Now, while he is still young, if he is not good, he can hurry up and change.Otherwise, in a few years, when I get older, I won't be in the mood to teach the second one after teaching one, and I'm afraid I will become like the late emperor if I have feelings.Indulging and pampering, he never wanted to change the candidate for the crown prince.

The prince is also an important existence, and he must be of good conduct.

He actually agreed, and the ministers didn't expect it.Just like the matter of choosing a concubine, as long as he nods, preparations will begin outside with beating gongs and drums.

There are records in the clan, and it is very easy to find a few children.It's just that there are too many people. Except for his generation, the royal family is full of branches and leaves, with a thriving population. There are hundreds of boys who have not yet been issued three clothes.

It took almost half a month before he started rushing to the palace, and it may take a while to actually enter the palace.

Everyone in the clan is very happy about this matter, and they can't wait to give birth to a few sons and send them to the palace to participate in the election.It is very possible to be the future emperor, how can people not be excited.

Miaoli has always been isolated from the world, and the servants don't say things that shouldn't be said in front of him.So almost everyone outside is talking about it, and she doesn't know it at all, and it has nothing to do with those things outside.Li Youfu was the only one who heard the news these days.

Li Youfu lay down on her side again dejected, "Sister, your sixth brother is really annoying, I don't want to play with him anymore."

Miao Li said with a smile: "I used to have a mouthful of Mr. Qu, but now it's your sixth brother. Does it mean you don't like it anymore if you get it?"

"No, he is very hateful. He always said things that made me uncomfortable, such as why he bought a big house, and then his parents agreed, and they waited for me to leave the palace."

"Isn't that nice? Nothing to hate?"

"He said that after he left the palace, he would serve him tea and water, take care of him, cook him food during the day, and warm his bed at night. He also said that he didn't invite any maids, and relied on me to take care of them all. Him. Do you think he thinks he is beautiful? Is he annoying? "

Qu Xingeng must be teasing her, Miao Li wanted to laugh hearing this. "Then you don't want him, don't serve him, don't cook for him, just starve him to death. If you're embarrassed to say it, I'll tell him for you."

Li Youfu got up quickly, and said nervously: "No, no, I still need it, and it took so much effort to get it? I'll just go and deal with him later, so that he can think so beautifully."
