While the ministers were still racking their brains to think of how to persuade the emperor to select concubines to fill his harem.
Good news came from Kunning Palace.
The Queen is pregnant!
After Lu Ting learned the news, he left the ministers in the imperial study and hurried to Kunning Palace.
At this time, the imperial physician was still taking Ying Xixi's pulse carefully. Seeing the emperor coming, the imperial physician hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Your Majesty, congratulations! Your Majesty is pregnant!
"And the Empress is probably pregnant with more than one fetus, but they are still very young, and I, an old minister, am not an expert in medicine, so I can't be too specific."
Lu Ting's eyes widened and he even stuttered.
"No, more than one?"
"Father, there may be two babies in Mother's belly, or even three!"
Little Lu Xinli explained to his stupid dad in a baby voice.
"There are two or three!"
Lu Ting was even more surprised.
"Baby thinks it should be three!"
After the little kid finished speaking, he obediently pressed his little face against his mother's flat belly.
Ying Xixi stroked the little girl's hair and asked, "Baby, why do you think there are three of them?"
"That's just the feeling. The baby is the big brother, and the babies in mommy's belly are the little brothers!"
The little kid's voice was so sweet that Ying Xixi couldn't help but sigh.
This may be due to blood ties, or perhaps children can really feel these things.
I didn’t expect that what the baby said was actually right.
Lu Ting was shocked by the number.
My wife gave birth to three babies in her lifetime!
This, this, this.......
"Imperial Physician, please explain clearly how to maintain the pregnancy and take care of the Queen!
Come here, bring me some pen and ink, I want to write it down myself!"
Lu Ting was in a hurry, and his hurried look was as if he was facing a great enemy.
Although the imperial physician did not explicitly say that the queen was pregnant with three fetuses, the news somehow got out.
People inside and outside the palace were talking about this.
When the ministers heard this, they felt a lump in their throats, not knowing whether to swallow it or spit it out.
They said that the queen now had only one son, and the emperor needed to fill his harem to expand the royal family.
As a result, the queen became pregnant?
And she got three babies at once?
If all three children were sons.
Then there are four princes in the royal family!
And since the queen can get pregnant with triplets at once, maybe she can get pregnant with triplets again next time!
If you calculate it this way, the emperor really only needs the queen to expand the royal family!
Thinking of this, the ministers temporarily gave up the idea of persuading the emperor to fill his harem.
After all, the queen hasn't given birth to a child yet.
If the queen gave birth to three princesses, they would have reason to persuade the emperor!
But ten months later, when the ministers heard that the queen had given birth to three princes, they were disappointed and completely gave up the idea of persuading the emperor to fill his harem.
The Queen gave birth to three sons in one pregnancy. Who can compare to her?
The news that the queen had given birth to three princes at once spread throughout the palace and outside the palace like a breeze.
Everyone was extremely surprised, and at the same time felt that this must be a good omen!
After all, looking back at the royal family in the past, no queen could give birth to twins.
Moreover, not to mention the royal family, even among the common people, there are very few women who can give birth to twins!
And the Queen gave birth to her third child!
Three little princes!
Her Majesty the Queen is definitely a blessed person!
On the streets, people were talking about this matter, especially the women who were married but not pregnant yet, who were eager to have a chance to see the queen's dignity and share in her blessings.
"Believe it or not, the Queen has given birth to three princes this time. The next time she gets pregnant, she might have twins or even triplets!"
"Believe it, believe it. I heard that this is a family hereditary thing. I don't know where the Queen's family is, and whether she has any sisters at home."
"I know about this. It is said that the Empress is an orphan, and she married the Emperor for the second time!"
"What! Don't talk nonsense like that, or you might get yourself killed!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. You can find out about this by just asking around. And since the Emperor didn't order anyone to keep it a secret, it means he doesn't mind the Empress's second marriage.
I heard that the Queen was a peasant girl before. She married into a family and had no children for three or four years.
The mother-in-law of that family was very mean. She kept saying that the woman was unable to have children. But it turned out that it was actually her son who was unable to have children!
Later, for some unknown reason, the two divorced, and the Empress married the Emperor, who was then a hunter in a village called Peach Blossom Village. They also gave birth to the eldest prince there.
"Oh my god! There's such a thing! If that family knew that the woman they despised had suddenly become the Empress and even gave birth to four princes in a row, wouldn't they be jealous to death?"
"But there's nothing you can do about it. The fields are fertile, but the cows aren't. And cows can't be jealous of other cows!"
"Keep your voice down! How dare you say that about the Empress? Be careful you'll be beheaded!"
"I know."
........
The whispers of the people on the street were carried by the wind to the ears of a beggar begging on the street.
The beggar was disheveled and his face could not be seen clearly.
But from her figure, it can be seen that she should be an old woman.
She had one hand and one foot broken, one eye blind, and could only beg on the streets.
When she heard what the people had just discussed, she froze.
Peach Blossom Village.
The queen was an orphan and had been married to a family in Taohua Village for three or four years.
The Emperor is a hunter in Taohua Village...
The old woman crawled on the ground like a madman and came to the people who were speaking.
"Is the Queen's name Ying Xixi?! Is the Emperor's name Lu Ting?! Is that right?!"
The old woman's sudden action frightened the people so much that they screamed and scattered in all directions.
Everyone looked at the old woman as if she were a madman.
"You old beggar, you are so bold! You actually dare to call the current emperor and empress by their names in public!
If you don't want to live, go die, don't harm everyone here!"
Someone yelled and told everyone to leave quickly.
The old woman stood there in a daze, then threw her head back and burst into laughter.
Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and her laughter was like a dull saw cutting wood, which was so annoying that it hurt your ears.
Someone simply dragged her into the alley and left her there, out of sight, out of mind.
The old woman laughed and then started crying.
The crying was sad and desperate.
All this is retribution!
It’s all retribution!
If Qiangzi had not divorced Ying Xixi.
If Qiangzi had gone to see a doctor and gotten well.
She can also have children and grandchildren around her and a large house!
It’s all retribution!
She shouldn't have bullied Ying Xixi before, she shouldn't have!
