Bai Chi cursed in his heart but still smiled on the surface, especially when Liu Shaoming asked someone to pass a message to him, asking him to find other concubines to build relationships with them, he rolled his eyes in his heart.
It was impossible for him to go out on his own initiative. It was so cold outside and the rain and snow had not stopped yet. He didn't want to go out and suffer.
But he still had to pretend. After the dog emperor's men left, Bai Chi asked someone to invite Concubine Shu over.
Because it had been promised before that the position of crown prince would be occupied by a child born to concubines other than the queen.
In order to ensure that the position falls on their own sons, they all naturally tried to curry favor with the "barren" empress. When they heard that the empress had summoned her, Concubine Shu came over without hesitation.
Bai Chi glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs around him. These were no longer the people arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs when he first entered the palace.
They were all replaced intermittently later. If nothing unexpected happens, at least half of them are Liu Shaoming's people.
However, Bai Chi didn't care and didn't even let anyone leave. Without waiting for Concubine Shu to salute, he asked someone to sit opposite him and even poured tea for the other person with his own hands.
"This is pregnancy-maintaining tea. My mother gave it to me before I entered the palace. I don't need it now, but you can take some with you when you return."
The pregnancy-safeguarding tea was real, but it was not given by the prime minister’s wife. Instead, he had just mixed it himself.
Xiao Hei’s own system space contains many things, various medicinal herbs being among them.
In the eyes of others, Concubine Shu is about to become a mother, but to Bai Chi, she is no different from a child.
After all, she is only 28 years old.
Concubine Shu was flattered and took it: "Thank you, Your Majesty. It must be a good thing given by the Prime Minister's wife."
Bai Chi smiled and said, "Is your sprained ankle feeling better? I don't know how long this rain will last, so remember to keep warm."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."
Then the two of them talked about the marriage of the two families. Bai Chi praised Shu Fei's brother for his fame and talent, while Shu Fei praised Bai Chi's sister for her beauty, intelligence, and kindness...
At least, that's what the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs saw.
In fact, what Bai Chi really asked was not these. What he asked was what habits and characteristics the Dog Emperor had when in bed.
Bai Chi asked very clearly, and Shu Fei answered very carefully, without seeming to be shy at all.
After waiting until Concubine Shu left, Bai Chi sent someone to call the next concubine.
Throughout the entire day, Bai Chi met with all the concubines in the palace who were pregnant or had given birth.
These people are also the ones who sleep with the most.
By the time the last person left, it was almost dark.
Bai Chi also learned an incredible truth from the conversation between these people.
"Meow, Master, did you hypnotize them?"
Xiao Hei slipped out.
"Girls tend to be shy. If they weren't hypnotized, they wouldn't have said so much. This way, they wouldn't know I asked these questions, and they wouldn't feel embarrassed when they see me in the future."
After all, we will have to live together in the palace for a long time.
It was a little embarrassing when I first heard it, but as I listened to it later, I didn’t feel anything anymore.
"Master, why are you asking those questions, meow?"
"Don't ask so many questions, kid. You'll find out later."
During dinner, Liu Shaoming came again, and the little eunuch followed him.
Bai Chi paid special attention this time. Sure enough, when Liu Shaoming sat next to him, the little eunuch curled his lips and rolled his eyes at Bai Chi.
I'm really jealous.
This time, Bai Chi didn't prepare anything else. He just had dinner with Liu Shaoming normally, and then made the excuse that he was tired and wanted to rest.
Sure enough, he didn't need to find any excuse to drive people away. Just when Liu Shaoming was about to stay overnight, a palace maid suddenly ran over hurriedly and said that a certain concubine had a stomachache.
"Queen, you should rest first. Concubine Yao is pregnant. I will go and take a look."
