Concubine Yao Xian served the emperor for dinner and made a cup of light tea with her own hands. Seeing the emperor's signal, she sat sideways on the chair next to the emperor and said with a smile: "There is something I want to tell the emperor."

Concubine Yao Xian paused and sighed softly, "Since Concubine Tang left, the palace seems to have become deserted all of a sudden. There has not been a single addition to the palace in these years."

The emperor frowned. The fact that he didn't add Ding was his big worry in the past two years.

"Look, if you choose some more people to come in, firstly, the palace will be more lively, and secondly, choose some people who are suitable for childbirth. The emperor only has two brothers, so the royal family must spread its branches."

Concubine Yao Xian spoke softly, and the emperor listened very appropriately, "This is your thoughtfulness. Well, you do have to choose some people, but this is not a trivial matter. I will discuss it with Jin Xiang and the others tomorrow."

Concubine Yao Xian agreed with a smile and did not mention the matter again. She only accompanied the emperor and said some words that he liked to hear. It was getting late, and the emperor hesitated for a moment, but got up and went back. He ordered someone to send a beautiful woman to accompany him to bed.

Having a baby is a big deal.

The next day, the emperor mentioned the matter of adding people to the harem, and everyone from Jin Xiang to Privy Bai, Hou Ji and Xiang expressed their approval. The emperor was worried that there would be no more children in the harem from time to time. It has not been a year or two, and no one wanted to deal with this.

Ni Lin, what's more, let alone the royal family, it is an ordinary family. The reproduction of children is a big deal. If you oppose it, it will inevitably lead to people attacking you with sinister intentions.

It’s just that Jin Xiang proposed that there is no need to limit family background when adding people to the harem this time, as long as they are clean, knowledgeable and polite, and willing to enter the palace.

Several husbands and Bai Jingning and Hou Mingli hurriedly agreed that it would not be bad for everyone if the new beauty added to the harem was of unknown origin.

Although the emperor was a little unhappy, he still reluctantly agreed.

Before the decision to select people to enrich the harem came out, Xin'er was handed over to Prince Qin's palace.

After listening to Han Shang Palace's report, Li Xia ordered Guo Sheng to come in.

"How is Feng Jie's case going now?" Li Xia asked directly as Guo Sheng met Li Xia.

"Bai Qiao was summoned and interviewed four or five times. Bai Qiao only said that he had help from a few people in the world, not me and Hu Panshi. He only said that a few strangers were missing. He has been investigating for several years, but found nothing."

Guo Sheng said, and looked at Li Xia carefully, knowing that many of his people helped the Bai family back then, but those who knew about it would probably not come forward to testify that he was the stranger.

"As the princess expected, Jiang Yanshi is keeping an extremely close eye on this case, almost keeping it airtight. Fortunately, we don't plan to do anything else, and Feng Jie is a very smart person. He gritted his teeth and just said that he was his father and brother.

explanation. To this day, it is still a stalemate.”

"In your opinion, how long can the stalemate last?" Li Xia asked.

"I asked Chen Jiang for advice on this case. Chen Jiang said that this kind of case is the most difficult to close. What Feng Jie said is true, but there is no basis for it. The Bai family asked questions and answered questions. They stayed out of the matter. No matter how the case was settled, it would be wrong.

.If this case is not about Empress Jiang, it will be dragged on until it is gone.

However, when it comes to Empress Jiang, such delay will definitely not work. Jiang Yanshi is keeping an eye on her so closely. What Chen Jiang means is only a month or two. No matter what, he must have an explanation. This explanation, in all likelihood, means

There is no solid evidence and Feng Jie is convicted."

Guo Sheng didn't express his opinion. He was not good at this. Chen Jiang was more professional.

"If Chen Jiang also thinks that what Feng Jie said is the truth, then the courtiers, in all likelihood, think so too. Even if Feng Jie is convicted, he will probably be pardoned. If the emperor does not pardon, the courtiers will go to great lengths to ask for a pardon for Feng Jiang.

Come down."

Li Xia narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment with a sullen face, "If Feng Jie is pardoned and his innocence is vindicated by death, it will be much better than living."

Guo Sheng was startled, "Feng Ying is dead. It seems that Feng Jie is the only male left in the Feng family."

"How many people died in the Jiangyin Army Rebellion, Jianghuai and Zhejiang?" Li Xia stood up, walked to the window, and asked coldly.

"General Lu said that more than 2,000 people died in the war, and no less than 100,000 people were displaced after the war. Twenty-three out of ten of these people died." Guo Sheng thought of what Li Xia meant, and his voice dropped all the way.

"You know the inside story of the Jiangyin Army Rebellion. If in such a family, there is still a person like Feng Jie left to continue the bloodline of dragons and phoenixes, and even become rich and powerful, those who have died and experienced the tragic death of their relatives and the loss of their family property

, people who have gone through hell, should they feel that God is blind, and all the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the sky are blind?"

As Li Xia spoke, he turned around and looked at Guo Sheng with a stern expression.

Guo Sheng lowered himself little by little, "I made a mistake, I know I was wrong."

"Thieves have their own ways, and they must fight for power and gain in a style. It is better to erase people like the Feng family than to keep them." Li Xia looked down at Guo Sheng.

Guo Sheng got even shorter, almost kneeling on the ground, "Yes, I will keep your lesson in mind, girl."

There is no restriction on family background when selecting people in the palace. As long as one is clean and voluntarily enters the palace, this trip is much more lively than the previous one. Even the houses of prostitutes who raise widowers have submitted their names but have been rejected.

I came here and got entangled with a group of people who were also rejected and went to Xuandemen to make a fuss. Why should I say that they are not innocent people?

The common people in the capital city watched the excitement with satisfaction. This was the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China that people were selected to enter the palace.

But these are all trivial matters. No one is so disdainful as to show these notes to the emperor. In the palace, the emperor is also very satisfied. Although the beauty chosen this time is not as good as last time, she is lovely and better than last time.

A lot.

Jiang only picks out the ugly ones, which seems to be not entirely unfounded.

Concubine Yao is really rare.

This year, this April, is full of happy events for the Emperor.

They had just given birth to seven or eight real beauties, and a few days later, they received the good news that Zhao promised to diagnose a pregnancy pulse. Two days later, Sun promised to diagnose a pregnancy pulse.

While the emperor was happy, he was also furious.

It seems that Jiang took advantage of the power of commanding the harem to manipulate the diet of everyone in the harem. He did not want to have more children in the palace, and it was not groundless!

Queen Jiang was locked in the palace, but the news was still well-informed.

Jiang Yanshi sent a letter to Feng Jie's accusation the next day. Empress Jiang was not very at ease with this matter. Firstly, she had no clue. Secondly, she had been accused of so many accusations in the past few decades.

There are too many slanders.

Many beauties were newly selected into the palace. Queen Jiang just sneered when she heard this. It was just a few more beauties. She had watched the emperor for half her life. She knew exactly what kind of person he was. He was not a bad emperor.

But in terms of being a husband and a father, he is not a human being.

A person who is not a human being, his harem, just depends on his own abilities.

Zhao Yingxing was diagnosed as pregnant, and then when Sun Xiner, who was also diagnosed as pregnant, reported in, Empress Jiang was eating breakfast. As soon as the envoy finished speaking, Empress Jiang raised her hand and threw the table away, and ordered with wrong teeth.

: "Tell the Crown Princess to come in and see me!"

Crown Princess Wei Yuze followed an old chamberlain and sneakily entered the corner gate of Empress Jiang's courtyard. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and sighed softly. The empress always does what she wants.

Queen Jiang was sitting on the Kang, looking directly at Wei Yuze who came in behind the maid. Seeing her greetings, she asked coldly: "I heard that Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Sun are both pregnant?"

Without waiting for Wei Yuze to answer, Empress Jiang sneered twice, "When did you know about it? Who knew it first? Did the imperial doctor diagnose the pregnancy, or did they say it themselves? Please pay attention to the whole process.

Say it again."

"Ms. Zhao got the diagnosis when she asked for Ping'an Pulse. The person on duty that day happened to be Imperial Physician Liu. The empress knows that Imperial Physician Liu is the best at pregnancy pulse. At that time, Empress Yao and I were discussing the Dragon Boat Festival. It was at Zhao's

A little girl who was waiting next to me came over to report it, so Mrs. Yao and I hurried over. Dr. Liu examined her carefully again and said that there is no doubt that she has a pregnancy pulse. It has been almost two months."

Wei Yuze's eyelids drooped slightly and he answered in great detail.

"Everyone in the harem who serves in the harem must report their menstruation every month. It has been almost two months, and at least one menstrual period has not come. How come no one knows about it?" Empress Jiang narrowed her eyes.

"Empress Yao sent people to adjust the menstrual period at that time. Zhao's menstrual period was not accurate, and it was long and short. In the past one or two years, there were cases of menstruation only once every two months, and there were cases of menstruation once every month.

It was coming back, so I missed it.”

Wei Yuze explained patiently.

"Where's Mrs. Sun? She got pregnant when she heard someone was pregnant?"

"Sun's menstrual period is also irregular, but she has grown it. Others have menstrual periods that are twenty or thirty days apart, but she can have them fifty days or two months apart, and they haven't come for two months in a row.

When she heard that Mrs. Zhao had diagnosed her pregnancy pulse during menstruation, Ms. Sun reported it and said that this time she was different from usual and she felt very nauseous when she woke up in the morning. Empress Yao asked Dr. Liu to diagnose her, and she was indeed pregnant."

"Liu Chunguo!" Queen Jiang slowly bit out a few words, squinted at Wei Yuze, and sneered: "Do you really believe that these two bitches are pregnant?"

Wei Yuze was startled, then smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty."

"The Empress Dowager Jin looked at you coldly for two or three years, but she didn't pick you up. How could you be so smart? How could you be so stupid?" Empress Jiang leaned forward slightly and looked directly at Wei Yuze with contempt in her eyes.

Wei Yuze's face turned red and his lips trembled a little.

"This is the work of the Prince of Qin's Palace. It's the Li family, maybe the Su family, that bitch Bai Yue, and the Li family are mixing things up right now. The Prince of Qin's Palace has saved more than a dozen lives of his Bai family. From then on,

Feng Jie, starting from the death of that bitch Tang Jiayu, this is a series of traps, a series of traps, don't you see it? Are you blind or a fool? "

Empress Jiang was trapped in a series of traps. She was extremely angry at this moment. Facing the stupid and confused Wei Yuze, she just wished that she could poke holes all over Wei Yuze's body with just one sentence and stab Wei Yuze from the inside out to make her feel.

The feeling of pleasure made Wei Yuze sober from the pain.

"Don't you claim that you were raised by a clan wife and have extraordinary knowledge? Where is your knowledge? Where are your eyes?" Empress Jiang leaned forward more, "I warned you when that bitch Tang Jiayu died.

No? You have to have an eye and learn to be careful! That idiot Feng Jie is being taken advantage of. How can I tell you? As long as I live, there will be no chaos in this palace. You just need to keep an eye on Yao bitch. I asked you to keep an eye on her. You

Where did you hear it?"

Wei Yuze felt ashamed and angry, and his whole body was trembling.

"How could you be so stupid? You didn't listen to me. You listened to Yao Bitch's instigation. She and you are incompatible and cannot coexist. You don't know? I am the biological mother of the prince. I only have one son. You are his son.

My daughter-in-law brought in by Xuandemen, how can I harm you? Are you a pig? Not only did you not listen to me, you also became a gun in the hands of bitch Yao. How could someone be so stupid as you?"

"Isn't it the empress who accuses others and robs and kills the Bai family? Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Sun are pregnant, and it was diagnosed by Dr. Liu. Who can lie? How can this be faked? It is not said that the pregnancy will be carried out in ten months.

If you can’t give birth to a baby, your belly will disappear after a month or two. Is it possible to hide it?”

Wei Yuze was so angry that he clenched his fists with both hands and dismissed every sentence with a trembling voice.

"How did Empress Tang die? Didn't the empress ask herself? Does the empress think that there are all stupid people in this palace, the court, and the whole world? They can't even see what the empress did?
