Chapter 1039 Win by Number

The emperor only drank one bowl of porridge, then put down his chopsticks, and the rest of the dishes remained unmoved.

Yingning said: "The emperor tasted this fish? The meat was very tender."

The emperor shook his head: "I used a lot at noon and I don't have much appetite yet. You and Ci'er eat it."

He sat aside, watching them have meals, occasionally saying a few homely things, but did not ask her about her going back to her parents' home.

When Yingning and Ci'er finished their meals, he stood up and returned to Qinzheng Hall.

The emperor came to Xuanzheng Hall, but did not stay overnight.

This disappointed the palace people in Xuanzheng Palace.

Yingning followed the emperor to the door and saw the eunuch Li Cheng waiting at the door.

Li Cheng gave Yingning a long salute and followed the emperor.

Li Cheng was the one who replaced Chen Hong's position, the eunuch in charge of seals of the Sili Supervisor, and the most capable and trusted person around the emperor. He should only be loyal to the emperor.

I left after dinner and did not stay overnight.

During the Chinese New Year, the emperor accompanied the queen and the prince for dinner, which was enough to prove that the emperor and the queen had a harmonious relationship, and were not as rigid and bad as rumors outside.

Therefore, although the emperor punished him, he still used him.

According to the court's practice, from New Year's Eve to Lantern Festival is the time for sealing and rest. After Lantern Festival, the emperor and court officials will start working.

Now, the show girls have entered the capital one after another. After the New Year, the talent show officially began.

How can this work?

Although the ministers muttered in their hearts, they did not protest or suggest it for the time being.

Because it was night, Ying Ning could not see the expression on his face clearly.

Let the emperor choose a few fresh faces he likes for himself, and are he afraid that the emperor will not go to the harem to spread sweet rain?

The ministers were calm and the harem was equally calm.

Yingning said: "Your Majesty punished Li Cheng to give me face. He asked him to continue to work as a service because His Majesty did not think that Li Cheng had done something wrong."

On the third day of the next day, the emperor still came to Xuanzheng Hall to accompany the queen and the prince for dinner.

But the emperor still did not stay at the concubines.

The late emperor had about ten sons, more than half of them died, and only five or six were left in the end.

In the harem, there were only three women in total, so it was normal for the emperor to dislike him.

I can only see that he was a little uncomfortable when walking, and he was turning around.

This situation lasted until the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

His courage to stop the queen's behavior that day proved this.

Not to mention whether the prince can be a qualified crown prince normally. In an era when it is difficult to raise a child, it is still unknown whether a six-year-old child can grow up healthily.

"Goddess, that's Li Cheng." Qingxiong replied, "I'm really not looking. That day, he was punished by the emperor to kneel all night, but he was not frozen to death, but only injured his knees. After raising him for a few days, he returned to the emperor to work as a job."

The emperor must let the concubines give birth to children and win by number to ensure the continuation of the royal family's bloodline and ensure the longevity of the Daxuan country.

Zhelan and Qingxiong looked at each other, but neither dared to speak.

Zhelan wondered: "Li Cheng offended the Empress, why did the emperor ask him to continue to serve him?"

The emperor now has only one son, too few are far from enough.

"That's Li Cheng?" Ying Ning asked.

The queen handled the common affairs of the harem every day, accompanied the diner to read and write, and lived in Ganquan Palace to study and play the piano, and sucked birds and raised flowers. In addition to coming to pay tribute to the queen every day, she refused to go out easily, and lived a very leisurely life.

As for Jin Cairen, although he was no longer depressed, he did not go to Qinzheng Hall to look forward to the emperor favoring her.

Under the calm and unwavering water, there is a dark tide gradually rising.

On the 20th day of the first lunar month, a total of 5,000 beautiful girls selected from all over the country were sent to the palace and asked the eunuchs to screen them first.
