Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

Qin Ji hesitated for a moment, then said:

"If you are not ready, then Da Xia may have to..."

"Is the country subjugated?" She knew exactly what he wanted to say.

Qin Ji hesitated for a moment, and then spit out two words: "It's hard to say."

"This is what I am worried about. If there are fewer children, I am worried about what will happen if the prince's ability is insufficient. If there are more... there will be such chaos in the future."

Actually...

There is a solution to this.

Xia Yuxiao and Qin Ji, regardless of who survived, can ensure the smooth operation of power.Xia Yuxiao can naturally think of this - with Qin Ji's power and level, it is indeed difficult for one person to face the various factions in the entire Great Xia, but these forces themselves are not united, and he can completely fight with the successor king. Let's stabilize the situation together.

but......

That is tantamount to handing over the entire country to him to control.

She hopes to be able to trust Qin Ji, but she is also worried that complete trust will lead to the complete destruction of the empire. If Daxia really lets him completely control...

Absolutely not.

If it is not the crown prince she chooses, no matter how reliable other people are, it will be difficult for their successors to be reliable forever.

Therefore, even the matter of how much is born is not random.

There is another solution to this kind of thing, that is to have children immediately, give birth to a bunch of them, and train them strictly from an early age. Select the one with the strongest ability and give all the training resources, while the rest of the children will not be given any Real power, especially military power.

This is actually a fight for probability, and the problem is...

The late emperor had many children, that's because the late emperor was a man, and having children was a matter of the harem. If ten children were required, it would be enough for the concubines in the harem to have one.

But she is different, the child is her own life...

Good guy, if you really want to have more children to increase the probability, don't do anything else for a day, and you will only have children for fun in this life.

Chapter 25 Fertility Matters

Xia Yuxiao thought about it carefully. According to the current level of the imperial doctors in Daxia, and she can use aura to some extent, the matter of giving birth to a child is not very dangerous in theory.

However, there are too many children, so I can't go to power with a big belly every day, right?

Firstly, it is inconvenient to move, not to mention those jobs that require standing or even kneeling for a long time, such as worshiping ancestors and heaven; secondly, when receiving ministers and envoys from various countries, this image is not very good.

"Your Majesty, according to my suggestion, if Your Majesty wants to have a child, only three people are needed."

Prime Minister Long gave his own advice.

"Tell me, why do you feel that way?" Xia Yuxiao asked.

"Your Majesty, the reason why the late emperor and the ancestors of the past dynasties ushered in the struggle for power is actually because the king is a man. I am not talking about the late emperor, but the reason why your majesty was so difficult to ascend the throne was actually the main reason. Or because the princes and princesses of the late emperor were not cultivated by the late emperor himself."

"Although the first emperor did not indulge in the love between men and women, he also had more than a dozen concubines in the harem. Most of the offspring were raised by the concubines and queens on weekdays. However, if it is your majesty, you can always train it yourself, or order In this way, although the number of heirs who can serve as the crown prince is small, the crown prince can grow up steadily."

Prime Minister Long said

"Therefore, I suggest that Your Majesty does not need to have too many heirs, as few as three, as many as four or five are enough."

"hiss......"

At least three more...

She knew it was something she had to do.Otherwise, the royal family couldn't explain it, but Xia Yuxiao felt a little pain when she gave birth to these children alone.

"What does Wang Yushi think of Prime Minister Long's words?"

Xia Yuxiao asked.

"I agree with the prime minister's words. If your majesty conceives too many heirs, it will delay state affairs at the slightest level, and damage the dragon's body at worst. If there are too few heirs, it will be difficult to secure a candidate for the future heir. The prime minister's words are a more feasible solution."

"Both of you agree with this method, so I think this method should work," she patted Qin Ji on the shoulder at this point, "Qin Ji, what do you think?"

"This......"

Is it really okay to just talk about this topic like this?

Qin Ji didn't feel ashamed to talk about it with his close ministers.Prime Minister Long is so old, and Wang Yushi is not young, so it doesn't matter to talk about it in front of them.However, his "future imperial husband" is still standing beside him.

Asking myself to give His Majesty the suggestion of "having a few children", is this a bit... It doesn't seem like something that can be mentioned in front of outsiders no matter how you think about it.After all, he is the implementer of the plan, and in a sense, how many children he wants to have depends largely on him.

"I feel that Your Majesty should put his body first and do what he can."

He wasn't mocking Xia Yuxiao, but according to his own observations, Xia Yuxiao's body and bones did not seem to be very good.

It's not that she has any disease, but that compared to Qin Ji's physical health, Xia Yuxiao's physical fitness is really weak. In the world he lived in before, it was commonly known as sub-health.

This is actually quite normal, after all, she works from morning to night every day, and has no time to exercise and take care of her body.

Qin Ji had seen her drink the decoction more than once, and he had also asked Xia Yuxiao that the main purpose of this decoction was to regulate the body and get rid of fatigue, and sometimes it would contain a small amount of herbal medicine to increase excitement.

This body bone suggests that you should grow your flesh first when you have a baby. Don't die because of having a baby, and it will be recorded in the annals of history forever.

"I will adopt this suggestion. The imperial doctor and the imperial chef will be responsible for my food and medicine in order to regulate my body."

She said it very naturally.

In her view, health care is nothing more than taking medicine and food supplements.Isn't the late emperor just like that? Why did he have so many children? It's not because of his strong physique and the supplement of medicinal materials.If it weren't for the injuries he suffered during those years of fighting, the late emperor's physique would have allowed him to live for a long time.

"Your Majesty... have you considered moving more?"

Qin Ji was speechless.

He knew that it was outrageous to persuade the emperor to exercise in such an era.But Xia Yuxiao's health is really not good, no matter how much medicine and food supplements are supplemented, it's useless if you don't move.

"There are so many official documents every day, where's the time? Besides, don't I move when I'm hunting?"

You call that exercise?Hunting activities are only twice a year on average, can this thing be called exercise?

"Your Majesty, what I mean by this subject is that anger is the root of a person, and life lies in movement. If your Majesty moves frequently, you will naturally breathe smoothly. If you want to take care of yourself, walking frequently is much better than medicinal materials."

"Okay, I know, I will do it when I have time."

There is time to do it, but there is no time every day.

Seeing that she didn't want to really exercise, Qin Ji stopped talking, anyway...

Only when the body is really bad, a person will really think about how to discipline himself.

Afterwards, everyone chatted about some trivia about Daxia.

The prime minister and the censor finally left. Seeing that it was getting late, Qin Ji also stood up and prepared to leave.

Lingyan next to her also stood up.

"Wait a minute, Lingyan, don't go."

Xia Yuxiao shouted.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Lingyan asked.

"Well, I want to talk to you alone, Qin Ji, it's okay to borrow your spirit face, right?"

Xia Yuxiao grabbed Lingyan's hand.

"no problem."

Qin Ji knew that Xia Yuxiao and Lingyan weren't really hiding anything from him, but there were some topics that he couldn't get involved in.

.....................

night.

In Qin Ji's bedroom, Qin Ji, Qin Siyue, and Lingyan, who had been busy all night, sat at the table and began to eat dinner.

The food that the butler ordered the kitchen to cook tasted quite good, and the three of them tasted the delicious food in front of them without talking to each other.

Suddenly, Lingyan raised her head:

"Master."

"Ok?"

"Today, Your Majesty asked me how your sleep skills are."

At this time, Qin Ji was seriously competing with a piece of braised beef tendon in his bowl, and didn't listen to her very carefully: "Oh, how did you answer?"

"I said, very weak."

"Oh...huh!?"

It was only then that Qin Ji realized that what she said was a tiger wolf.

However, compared to the scale of what this guy said, he was more surprised by the nonsense of this guy.

Where is labor and capital so weak? !

"Lingyan, speak from the facts," the younger sister watched curiously, and it was impossible for Qin Ji to speak too bluntly. "I think you should have a deep understanding of what is actually going on."

"Well, I admit it."

Lingyan nodded expressionlessly.

"Then you still say I'm weak?"

"Because, your Majesty may need a little confidence. Since the matter of men and women is related to the country of Daxia, if your Majesty does not have confidence, it will be detrimental to future generations."

Lingyan explained it like this.With such an explanation, Qin Ji immediately understood.

That's right, after all, Xia Yuxiao is still unemployed, so she can't put psychological pressure on others.

"It's okay, but next time, don't hurt me like this, it's shameful."

"Yes."

Lingyan continued to eat with her head down, but she was sneering in her heart.

Hmph, have a baby, right?Want to have several children with the young master, right?

She won't stop it, the young master can't avoid it. For the sake of the young master's future, she doesn't mind.

but......

Thinking of the inexperienced Xia Yuxiao who started actual combat, she found that what she thought was "a little" different from reality...
