Chapter 165: Help! I'm an emperor dressed as a man
The emperor read the title carefully twice again, and after making sure there were no hidden codes, he frowned.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the prince who had just walked in: "I'm back. Is Jiuer asleep?"
The prince nodded slightly: "Already asleep."
The emperor hummed and passed the script over: "Everyone is very curious, please read it."
Prince: ...
He took it and looked at it for a while, his lips trembled, and then he began to read: "I never thought that I would be dressed as an emperor in male disguise, and a tyrant who was hated and feared by the courtiers."
The prince's mouth twitched. This character seemed familiar.
"Snap" the emperor suddenly broke a pen.
The court officials all pretended nothing had happened and lowered their heads to pick up their pens.
The prince paused and continued reading the story: "And he is a tyrant who has been sidelined. Except for a loyal eunuch, everyone else around him is the spies of the four ministers. This is a disaster, so I am ready to lie down and wait for reincarnation..."
Some court officials tried hard to hold back their laughter.
"But... I just lay down, but I was shocked to find that the minister named Li had climbed onto my dragon bed overnight, and he smiled evilly, 'Your Majesty, it's my turn to sleep with you tonight!'"
When the prince read this, he was choked and his pupils trembled.
The court officials all showed the same shocked expressions.
What does that mean?!
This emperor and his minister named Li have such an exciting relationship?!
The emperor's mouth twitched: "Continue."
The prince took a deep breath. "I was stunned. I hit him on the head with a jade pillow, and he pinned me down. Minister Li said to me with an ugly face, 'Why? You are only willing to sleep with Zhang Wen? Your Majesty, do you still want to stay chaste for him?' Hearing this, I was completely dumbfounded. Zhang Wen is also one of the ministers! Is the love line in the palace so complicated?!"
When the prince read this, he took a deep breath.
The court officials covered their mouths one after another: Is this so exciting? !
The prince continued, "I opened my mouth subconsciously: 'What? Are you four my husbands?' At this time, Li Guming touched my face with a strange look on his face and said, 'No, to be honest, you are our forbidden fruit.'"
After reading this, the prince was completely depressed.
This scale is really too big, he can't accept it.
The elder officials in the court almost pulled their beards and whispered, "How disgraceful! I told you this system is unreliable. Look at what's written in it! They haven't seen the Enfeoffment Order, and they're just talking nonsense here."
The young court officials also murmured at first: "People's hearts have changed!" But their attention was always on the crown prince. Obviously, they were curious about why the empress had fallen to such a state.
The emperor pinched his brows tiredly and said, "Continue reading."
The prince took a deep breath and said, "I was shocked by what Li Guming said. I couldn't help but mutter, 'After all this time, did I travel through time and space to post a message?' At this time, Li Guming approached me again and said, 'What message? Your Majesty, I will be more gentle than Lord Zhang.' I was frightened by the other party's neat undressing action, and kept saying, 'Wait, if we sleep together, what if I get pregnant? You don't even know whose child it is!'"
"Li Guming's minister looked at me strangely and said, 'Didn't we discuss this at the beginning? As long as Your Majesty gets pregnant and gives birth to an heir to Qi, it will be fine. Anyway, the four of us will take care of the child together.' My eyes went dark. Isn't this just a reproductive tool? Just when I was about to despair, my savior, my invincible, lovable, kind...powerful system master appeared."
After reading this, the frowning prince couldn't help but twitch his lips.
The other onlookers were also speechless: This system is quite narcissistic.
The prince continued, "The system said, 'Host, the great child-bearing system is here. Eight treasures in one fetus, no problem! '... Oh my god, what the hell is this."
Not only the prince couldn't help but complain, but the court officials couldn't help but complain as well.
"I have been studying for thirty years and have never seen anything so outrageous."
"Eight treasures in one pregnancy, a woman giving birth to twins is likely to die."
…
The emperor interrupted the courtiers and said, "Prince, please continue."
The prince coughed lightly and continued, "When I knew that the system only had the function of giving birth to children, I was desperate. In the following days, I reveled every night... Each of them had different ways of doing things."
"During the days of being tormented, I suddenly had a new idea. I talked to the system about the rules of having a child. It said that anyone can have a child as long as they eat the pregnancy fruit. I laughed. Then I asked the system for 32 pregnancy fruits. The system was so shocked that it went offline. When it came back, it gave me four words: "Heroic Mother". I laughed again. This should be true."
The prince became a little curious when he heard this.
The court officials who were originally complaining about the "ridiculous", "not worth watching" and "insulting to the civilized" all quieted down at that moment.
Obviously, although they had cursed fiercely before, the "mouthful but heart upright" had been listening to the melodramatic story seriously.
The prince continued, "I was docile for a few days, and the ministers were no longer so wary of me, so I had the opportunity to give the pregnancy fruit to the four of them. A month later, the four ministers collectively vomited in the court. The imperial doctors knelt down trembling and said, 'This is morning sickness. And, each of you is pregnant with eight.' All the ministers in the court were dumbfounded."
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall was filled with uncontrollable coughing and "puffing" sounds.
"Oh my god, what on earth is the system thinking? How is this possible?"
"A man is pregnant? And he's pregnant with eight babies? That's too unrealistic."
…
Suddenly, a voice sounded slowly: "But the system can come up with sex-changing drugs and pregnancy fruits, so there's nothing weird about it."
The court officials who were originally smiling lightly froze collectively.
…
The emperor pinched his brows. He was speechless as he watched his courtiers start a heated debate on topics such as "Can a man really be pregnant with eight children?" and "The body simply can't bear it." They were arguing with good reasons and arguments.
The emperor said, "Prince, turn to the part where there is the Enfeoffment Order and read it again."
The prince nodded: "Yes, father."
The prince began to flip through the book quietly, and many court officials scratched their heads and took a peek at him.
They don't want to read melodramatic stories, but they are really curious about the neither-good-nor-bad stories.
For example, how could one fetus with eight treasures lead to the Enfeoffment Order?
