Chapter 147 Deceiving too much(1/2)

Knowing that the prince was born, Emperor Jing completely relaxed.

He didn't leave, but sat on the bench that Zhao Shou brought, and leisurely called a cup of milk tea.

Drinking sweet milk tea, his heart is sweeter than milk tea.

Since the second son killed the third son and was involved in the case of the eldest son being killed, his heart has not been stable since that day.

Jing Hedi always felt that his life should not be so humble, that he should not be old, and that he would not have a single son.

He did not want to be the first emperor in the Dakang Dynasty to have to give up his throne because he had no descendants.

For this wish, he didn't know how many times he had prayed to the gods and Buddhas secretly and made great wishes.

The last time the two concubines became pregnant, Jing Hedi was surprised for a while, but in the end they were both princesses, which made him very disappointed.

This time, the three concubines became pregnant again, and Emperor Jing He felt that his chance of winning was higher.

But I never expected that the first time I opened the dice box was to drive a beautiful leopard.

The emperor, who was surprised, did not truly believe that the dream came true until the queen confirmed it to him.

"Zhao Shou!"

"Your Majesty, I'm here." Zhao Shou quickly spoke: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! This is really a blessing to the heavens!"

Jing Hedi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "You old guy...hey! Go on the order, Li Zhaoyi will be rewarded for giving birth to a prince and will be promoted to the imperial concubine immediately..."

"His Majesty!"

Zhao Shou hesitated for a moment, but did not dare to continue talking.

"What's wrong?"

Jing Hedi was in a good mood and said, "If you have something to say, hurry up and say it!"

Zhao Shou also knew that he was happy, so he said with a thorny blow: "Your Majesty, there are two more empresses who have not given birth to... If they also gave birth to princes, would you also promote them to imperial concubines?"

Emperor Jing He was surprised.

He immediately smiled, "You old guy...yes, I don't think well... Then let's have the imperial concubine first!"

The rules of the palace in Dakang are similar to those we all know in all dynasties.

There can be many women in the emperor, but there must be a sort.

Below the queen is the imperial concubine.

There is only one queen.

There is only one imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine's status is second only to that of the queen.

Once the queen has any faults or irreparable mistakes, then after the emperor wants to establish a new new position, he can only choose the imperial concubine.

The other imperial concubines were not qualified, such as Zhaoyi, Zhaoyuan, talented people, etc., and they were not even qualified to mention them.

The status of the imperial concubine is so important that emperors of all dynasties rarely set up such a position. Usually, only when a prince who is not the queen becomes the crown prince can his mother become the imperial concubine.

So if Emperor Jinghe gave Li Zhaoyi the imperial concubine just because she gave birth to a prince, it was because she was promoted too quickly, and it was also a very reckless behavior.

Zhao Shou’s reminder was very useful and avoided a big storm.

Logically speaking, eunuchs are not allowed to participate in the government affairs. This requirement is so strict that it is even more severe than whether the children of the royal family can defend their families and the country.

But what Zhao Shou said at this time was a kind of honest advice, and the emperor naturally appreciated it.

As long as the emperor does not tell others, Zhao Shou's words at this time will be innocent.

"Zhao Shou."

After Emperor Jing and Emperor laughed, they suddenly became quarrel: "Do you think Concubine Yao and Concubine Ming gave birth to a prince or a princess?"

"Everything is good!"

Zhao Shou said calmly: "But if you can think more about the prince, the country will definitely be reviewed."

"Well, I think so too. The more princes, the better!" Jing Hedi laughed, "I have to work harder! I will give birth to seven or eight princes in one go, that's a prosperous life!"

"The palace must have been very lively at that time!" Zhao Shou said in conjunction.

"Haha, at that time, let Mingqi teach them various inventions, Mingguan teach them to read, and Mingjing teach them to practice martial arts." Jinghedi said: "In this way, when they grow up, they will be the talents that Dakang needs! With their next generation, my Dakang's country will be more prosperous!"

"The emperor is wise!"

Zhao Shou was sincerely convinced by Emperor Jinghe’s arrangement!

...

The news that Li Zhaoyi gave birth to a prince spread throughout the capital in a blink of an eye.

Emperor Jinghe is a good emperor.

So everyone is actually caring about him.

Now that I heard that the emperor had a prince, it proved that the throne was expected, everyone was naturally very happy.

The sound of firecrackers sounded inside and outside the capital, and many ordinary people spontaneously ran outside the imperial city, shouting and cheering to celebrate the emperor.

Of course, Jing Hedi also felt their joy.

That night, there was an order in the palace.

"Now the emperor has a son, and the great ruler is not short of it. He issued a special order. If you have registered in the capital, each household will give you one piece of soap, two pounds of oil, three pounds of meat, and those who do not have registered will be given half of it, and you will have fun with the people!"

So the people became happy again.

But not everyone is happy.

For example, in the Liwang Mansion, after dinner, Liwang entered the study with a smile and immediately closed the door.

He stayed in the study all night.

Then early the next morning, he received a notice from the clan mansion, saying that King Su asked him to come over.

I vaguely guessed what was going on. After King Li washed his face, he carefully washed it and then came to the clan mansion.

He is the only one in King Su’s office.

Seeing that King Li came, he made a cup of tea for King Li first.

King Li sat down with a smile, "What? The emperor is overjoyed. Isn't you going to help me with the help of the fourth brother? Is there still time to find me?"

King Su himself is not a person who is good at talking, nor is he a qualified persuasionist.

So his face was very awkward, so he could only say, "Second brother... I have something I want to discuss with you."

"Tell me!" King Li said lightly while drinking tea.

"The emperor looked for me yesterday." King Su said with some difficulty: "It's... the prince has been born, and he wants to be the prince..."

King Li was suddenly shocked and put down the teacup: "No? This prince has just been born and has not been a full month yet... If something happens, wouldn't my Liu family become a laughing stock?"

King Su had been observing King Li's face. Seeing that he was not angry, but was surprised and puzzled, he breathed a sigh of relief.

What King Li said is naturally that children are prone to death.

In this era, every household may have children who die prematurely, even the emperor's children are no exception.

There are examples of royal princes, princesses, etc. in every dynasty and every generation.

Before Emperor Jinghe, several sons and daughters died prematurely, or were not rescued after they became ill at the age of one or two.

Therefore, it is usually only after the prince becomes an adult that the prince will be confirmed.

The earliest one is to wait after the age of twelve, otherwise the concept of a prince being killed in the middle is completely different from a prince being killed in the early days.

If you spend a few more times, the country's prestige will decrease and its national destiny will even be damaged.

Therefore, King Li’s worries are very reasonable.

"Who said no?" King Su nodded and said, "I told the emperor about this before, but he didn't want to listen. He wanted to convince our royal family first and then convince the courtiers."

"I don't want to agree. The emperor is not too old and can continue to have a child... there is no need to establish the prince so early." King Li said seriously: "Now he does this, it's a bit like catching a life-saving straw. But the emperor never thought that if there is anything wrong, not only will he become a laughing stock, but our royal family will be ridiculed!"

"That's how..."

King Su nodded and said, "Okay then! I'll talk to him again."

"Okay, I'll go quickly!" King Li stood up, "I won't go anymore... I'm a little embarrassed to show up now..."

"Second brother, you... are you fine on Mingguan?" King Su asked carefully.

"Oh, it's a bit regretful, but this is not something he can decide. I can only say that he doesn't have this blessing!" King Li sighed, "He should be able to figure it out. Anyway, his interest is not here. Even if it doesn't work, I will advise him to relax!"

"Okay, second brother, you have worked hard!"

King Su's doubts and worries all disappeared.

Looking at the figure of King Li leaving, he thought about the task assigned to him by the emperor.

Now the emperor probably won’t worry, right?

I just said that the people from the second brother's family are all gentle and have no thoughts.
