Chapter 44 I Can't See You

[I can't see you.]

[I can't see you.]

[I can't see you.]

This was the emperor's current thoughts. An Jiu looked at his tall and strong back, then at the empress dowager. All of them were staring at the emperor like flies seeing shit.

"Emperor." The Queen Mother's voice traveled particularly far in the silent garden.

The emperor couldn't pretend even if he wanted to.

【I’m so annoyed.】

【I’m so annoyed.】

[Can't you just pretend you didn't see me? ]

The emperor turned around and walked over calmly with the stride of a king.

"The Queen Mother."

An Jiu thought, the Queen Mother is the legal mother, shouldn't she be called Queen Mother?

She doesn't really understand either.

The Queen Mother patted the seat beside her with a gentle smile, like a true loving mother.

"The weather is nice today, I came out to get some fresh air, you come and sit here too."

[I don’t want to sit…]

[I don’t want to sit next to these women.]

【I’m so annoyed.】

The emperor's whole body was filled with resistance, but luckily Eunuch Li had signaled and had someone bring a stool over and placed it in a position neither too far nor too close to the empress dowager and the women.

The Queen Mother smiled and said with emotion: "Li Defu is getting better and better at doing things."

Eunuch Li lowered his head and smiled.

The emperor sat on it, and because it was in a windward position, he could hardly smell the scent of incense on the women.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

[When can I leave? ]

【Isn't it awkward to sit like this? 】

An Jiu stood behind him and felt like laughing when listening to his inner thoughts.

At this time, the empress dowager mentioned the three women sitting in front of her, all of whom were the emperor's concubines.

[What concubine? I know her myself? ]

An Jiu secretly looked up and saw that all three concubines were beauties, one was a cool and elegant lady, one was a cute lolita, and one was a sexy beauty.

At this time, they all looked at the emperor shyly.

[I got goosebumps all over my body. Why are they looking at me like that? ]

An Jiu thought, of course I want to have sex with you.

You are their husband.

The emperor obviously didn't have this awareness. After the empress dowager finished her introduction, he just responded faintly and started thinking about what to eat in the evening.

An Jiu "..."

I am really impressed.

The Queen Mother said: "Although there were many things going on in the previous dynasty, the Emperor should also come to the harem for a visit. The major events in the court are important, and offspring are also important..."

The Queen Mother began to babble and urge the baby to give birth.

The emperor was thinking about something else.

[Can Daitoue make desserts? I really want to eat them. ]

An Jiu "..."

[What did the Queen Mother just say? Offspring...]

[What to do with offspring? That is indeed a problem. ]

[I can't just find a random woman to give birth to a child, right? Oh, how do I give birth to a child...]

The emperor's face turned pale. He was obviously very unwilling to have a baby with a woman in bed. It was simply torture...

An Jiu listened to his entire journey.

She was puzzled because the emperor didn't seem to be misogynistic.

How did he get this problem? Mysophobia?

It seemed like he couldn't psychologically accept having a child like this.

And disgust is also supported physiologically.

What a weird guy! When the tyrant carried her away, he also had physical contact with her. Why didn't he seem to have any problems? She was still a virgin.

As An Jiu was thinking this, the emperor over there was already distracted and letting himself go.

【I have thought of a good idea. 】

An Jiu felt as if maybe he glanced at her.

What are you doing?

Why do you want to see her?

If your boss suddenly looks at you while you are working, it must be something bad.

really……

[I can't, but that idiot can. ]

[Don't idiots like silly geese? Let them have the baby. I don't have to do anything and I can just hold my son. Then I can save my worries by leaving the mother behind and keeping the child...]

An Jiu "..."

You are such a dog.

Calling you a dog is an insult to dogs.

An Jiu "************"

"Emperor?" The Queen Mother called him, and the Emperor regained his thoughts and looked at the Queen Mother.

"Did you hear everything I said to you?"

The emperor actually didn't hear a word, but he still said, "I heard it."

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Don't think I am nagging you. If the harem is not stable, the country will not be stable."

[I am still young, why do you say that I am about to die? ]

Emperor: "Yes, son, I remember it."

The Queen Mother pointed at the three beauties beside her and said, "Let's take Concubine Wang and the others with us on this autumn hunt. They are bored enough in the palace."

Emperor: “Yes.”

The empress dowager finally agreed to let him go. The emperor stood up, said goodbye, and left without looking back.

Eunuch Li and An Jiu could hardly keep up with his pace.

After they left, the Queen Mother's face darkened and she looked at the three beauties in front of her with different styles.

"The opportunity has been given to you. Whether you can seize it depends on you. The emperor does not like women. If you can conceive a dragon son..."

The Queen Mother didn’t say anything further.

But the three beauties understood.

The emperor is not interested in women, which means it will be difficult for him to have children.

As long as she could get pregnant, no matter if the child was a prince or a princess, he would be doted on. If she was lucky enough, it would be a son...

Then there is a great possibility that he will inherit the throne in the future.

All three of them were a little excited.

"Thank you, Queen Mother. We concubines will remember this."

The empress dowager stood up and Wang Decai hurriedly reached out to support her. The empress dowager took one last look at the emperor's receding back and left.

In fact, this was not their first day here, just to wait for the emperor.

No encounter in the palace was a coincidence.

…

The emperor walked quickly and soon disappeared. When An Jiu ran over, he was feeding the fish by the pond.

It was here that he almost hacked a concubine to death last time.

Fistfuls of fish food were thrown in, and the koi fish rushed to eat. An Jiu took a look and really admired these fish. Each one was as fat as a ball. Maybe the women in the palace would come to feed the fish when they were bored. You throw a handful, I throw a handful, and no one cares about leaving fish...

"Do you think this koi is delicious?" the emperor suddenly asked.

An Jiu didn't react for a moment.

Mainly because I haven’t eaten it.

Who would be so crazy as to eat koi?

"Your Majesty...I have never eaten it either."

The emperor then said, "I want to eat sweets in the evening."

Before Anjiu could say anything, he added, "I don't want to eat anything like the one in the imperial kitchen."

What I mean is that I don’t want to eat the snacks from the imperial kitchen that are so exquisite that they make my throat choke.

In fact, the Imperial Kitchen is really good...

An Jiu looked at his round and plump head and couldn't help but think, this guy really knows how to make things difficult for others.

As an emperor, can you please pay a little attention to national affairs?

If you can't do it, you can go to the harem and play with your concubines.

Why bother a little maid every day? She is just a poor and helpless little maid, not a cooking god...

Anjiu sighed.

What should I do?

What should I make for him to eat?

If all else fails, just make some sugar cakes.

An Jiu felt that she had found a new idea. When she was a child, her mother baked brown sugar cakes for her. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. With the brown sugar flowing out, they were simply too delicious...

An Jiu swallowed.

It made her want to eat it too.
