PFC Chapter 108: Have More Children
Chapter 108: Have More Children
The previous auditions were still going on, and I thought it would go on uneventfully, but unexpectedly there was a small incident in the last group.
Among the last group of ten people there was a pair of twins.
Why didn't anyone notice it before? Because they are fraternal twins. They look completely different. The elder sister is charming and the younger sister is pure. If they hadn't announced themselves, no one would have known they were twins.
Lu Junze frowned when he heard this. He had no interest in sisters serving together, but he didn't believe that these two could make it to the palace selection without the help of someone behind the scenes.
It's really restless.
"It's quite interesting." The Toffee said with a smile beside her.
It is not without precedent for sisters to serve together, it mainly depends on whether the emperor likes it.
Shangguan Yan: "Your Majesty, I think these two are well-behaved, why don't you let them stay?"
"Since the Queen has said so, then stay."
"Yuan Yao, daughter of the governor of Dingzhou Prefecture, left a plaque and a sachet."
"Yuan Shu, daughter of the governor of Dingzhou Prefecture, left a plaque and a sachet as a gift."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two men knelt down to express their gratitude.
From then on, this selection came to a successful conclusion. Among the 150 selected beauties, ten finally entered the palace.
This is actually very few. For the previous emperors, the number of people selected to fill the harem was always dozens each time.
The unsuccessful beauties received some rewards and went home.
Next, it depends on what positions Lu Junze gives to these people. This can also indirectly show which one Lu Junze likes or has a better impression of.
Lu Junze didn’t like anyone, so he gave them a position on the spot.
"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:
I have inherited the noble mandate, and I have been blessed with great kindness and grace, and the provinces are prosperous. The country is blessed by the way of heaven, and has been blessed by the sun and the moon. The wealth and wealth are plentiful, and it is a great success. This dynasty has always relied on the orthodoxy of the Tao to respond to the universe, and the will of heaven and yin and yang cannot be violated. I am in a prosperous year, and it is the time to take in concubines. I have also inherited the teachings of Xingqing and followed the festival of Chongxiao, so I have issued an edict to all provinces, prefectures and counties across the country to select ladies to fill the six palaces.
Liu Wenxin was made a concubine, given the title Wen, and granted the residence of Yonghe Palace;
Lin said she was given the title of noble lady and was granted the residence in Yufu Palace;
Chen was promised the title of noble lady and given the residence of Changle Palace;
Zhang was a humble lady and was granted the title of noble lady and was granted the residence of Yonghe Palace.
Yuan Shiyao was granted the title of noble lady and was granted the residence of Yinyue Pavilion;
Yuan Shishu was given the title of noble lady and granted the residence of Yinyue Pavilion;
……
Admire this. "
Except for these six, the rest are all talented people.
In fact, Lu Junze's decree this time was very subtle and strange. Before, the highest position for those who entered the palace through the election was beauty, but this time it was given to the concubine.
Although Liu Wenxin was an exception as she was the niece of the Concubine Dowager, the other noble ladies were not special at all.
Even the Queen Mother looked at Lu Junze in surprise when she heard such an order, not to mention the Queen, who could hardly maintain her superficial smile.
Only the dowager concubine was truly happy, because her niece became a concubine as soon as she entered the palace, and a concubine with a title. The emperor still gave face to her, the dowager concubine.
"Mother, I'll take my leave first." Lu Junze stood up and said.
The Queen Mother knew that Lu Junze was busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty and did not try to keep him, but in fact Lu Junze was anxious to go to Chenhua Palace.
Since no servant came to report, Gu Shijin should be fine, but Lu Junze was still worried unless he saw it with his own eyes.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Gu Shijin was sewing clothes when the eunuch's announcement sounded. Perhaps she was going to be a mother, and Gu Shijin also wanted to make two sets of clothes for her child with her own hands.
"I pay my respects to His Majesty..."
Before the ceremony was over, Gu Shijin was pulled up, "You are pregnant, so don't worry about these etiquettes."
"Your Majesty, so many people are watching us, etiquette cannot be abandoned." Gu Shijin always remembered that she was just one of the beauties in the harem.
"You." Lu Junze tapped Gu Shijin's forehead.
"Are you feeling better? Do you still feel like vomiting?" Lu Junze helped her walk over and sit down.
Gu Shijin shook her head, "Your Majesty, I am fine now. Doctor Song also said that I am fine. This is normal."
When Lu Junze heard that it was Song Jibai who said that, he felt relieved. Although Song Jibai was sometimes unreliable, he was still very reliable and reassuring when it came to serious matters.
However, Gu Shijin had another question, "Your Majesty, I am only five months pregnant, how come my belly is so big?"
Gu Shijin had never been pregnant, but she had seen other people who had been pregnant, and there was no way a baby this big could be born in five months. Just now, when Gu Shijin asked Song Jibai, Song Jibai smiled mysteriously and asked her to ask the emperor.
Lu Junze grabbed Gu Shijin's hand with one hand, touched Gu Shijin's belly with the other hand, and whispered in Gu Shijin's ear: "Jin'er, you are pregnant with twins."
Gu Shijin was stunned at first, then he reacted and opened his eyes wide with a look of disbelief.
She was actually pregnant with twins!
"Your Majesty... are you saying... true?" Gu Shijin felt like he was probably dreaming.
When Lu Junze first found out, he was also very excited. He said, “Of course it’s true.”
Gu Shijin looked down at her belly and thought it was amazing that she had two children in her belly.
Suddenly, Lu Junze felt his hand moisten. He looked up and saw that Gu Shijin was crying with excitement.
"Jin'er, why are you crying?" Lu Junze asked worriedly, picking up the handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
"Your Majesty, I am happy."
All of a sudden she had two children. She would never be alone in this world again. She had her own concerns and ties and would no longer feel that she was alone in this world.
"Your Majesty, thank you." Gu Shijin said this sincerely.
"I should thank Jin'er."
If they are twins, then all the strange phenomena happening to Gu Shijin can be explained, and Gu Shijin can finally put his mind at ease.
Lu Junze picked up the half-finished clothes of Gu Shijin next to him and took a look, "How did Jiner know it was a girl?"
Gu Shijin smiled and said, "I just did it casually. Does Your Majesty think girls are bad?"
"No way, as long as they are born by Jin'er, I like them all."
"Maybe Jin'er is pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl."
Gu Shijin: "How can I be so lucky?" I was able to have both a son and a daughter in one pregnancy.
Lu Junze disagreed, “Doesn’t the fact that Jin’er is pregnant with twins prove that Jin’er is already very lucky?”
How can ordinary people get pregnant with twins?
Gu Shijin also knew that in the harem, as long as he gave birth to the twins safely, he would be able to live a stable life in the second half of his life as long as he did not commit suicide.
But... a glimmer of light flashed in Gu Shijin's lowered eyes. Just because she doesn't harm others doesn't mean that others won't harm her.
For the sake of her two children, she will not be merciful.
Gu Shijin leaned her head on Lu Junze's shoulder and asked tenderly, "Did the emperor get a beauty today?"
"Hmm?" Lu Junze was stunned, then reacted, "I don't want to participate in the selection, but there is no other way. It's the rule of our ancestors. I don't like those women."
He hugged Gu Shijin tightly, "Jin'er, give me a few more children, then the previous dynasty won't urge me to select children for the sake of having children."
