"This is more interesting than my fire avoidance diagram."
Emperor Shengwu flipped through the pages with great interest.
Bei Lingyao wondered, could there be a more boring fire avoidance picture than a stick figure?
Soon, Bei Lingyao understood.
Emperor Shengwu asked Xing Yi to bring the fire avoidance map. When Bei Lingyao saw it, she was almost blinded.
Emperor Shengwu's three copies of the fire avoidance map were placed in an exquisite and luxurious treasure chest, and the fabrics were all made of high-quality silk.
But the first one is headless and the style looks very weird.
The second one has some looks, but the expressions of both men and women are too greasy, which makes people feel sick.
The third woman had two red spots on her face, like the makeup in a zombie movie.
The man's fat is disgusting to look at.
Oh my god, it hurts my eyes.
She finally understood why Emperor Shengwu had not entered the harem for ten years.
I finally know why Emperor Shengwu was impotent.
If you look at this picture album every day, you won’t be able to lift it even if you want to.
"Ugly, don't look at it anymore."
Emperor Shengwu stretched out his hand to cover Bei Lingyao's eyes.
Bei Lingyao was speechless. She had already seen it, so what was the point in covering it up now?
But she didn't want to watch it anymore.
"None of them are as good as this one from me. It's hard for Your Majesty."
Emperor Shengwu pinched Bei Lingyao's face and said, "How bold! You have no shame."
"I also wanted to read a book. I remembered that I had prepared a box of books before entering the palace, so I asked Zhihua to get it. I didn't expect that my mother only left these two books."
Bei Lingyao gently hooked her feet under the quilt and hooked up the "Women's Ring".
The fire avoidance map and the female ring were placed in front of Emperor Shengwu. Emperor Shengwu touched Bei Lingyao's soft head and said, "Poor Concubine Bei, it's not easy for her to read."
"Xing Yi, send two boxes of books to Yufu Palace."
Bei Lingyao's eyes lit up. No wonder everyone in the harem wanted to be favored.
In ancient times, women's survival was already limited, and the restrictions in the harem were even more severe.
The concubines in the harem were not allowed to go to the library to read or borrow books.
Apart from bringing it into the palace as a dowry from the woman's family, or asking her family for help, she could only give money to trusted palace servants to help buy it from outside the palace, and it had to be inspected by the guards.
It is good that Emperor Shengwu is willing to send her the book now, otherwise she can only ask her parents' family to send it to the palace.
After a while, two boxes of books arrived at Yufu Palace.
Tao Te Ching
Bei Lingyao's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but recite it.
"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth; the named is the mother of all things..."
The clear and pleasant sound echoes in the room, making people feel peaceful, happy and relaxed.
Emperor Shengwu was lying on the chaise longue and fell asleep at some point.
Bei Lingyao's voice did not stop, and the palace servants guarding the door stopped to listen, unwilling to leave.
Although Bei Fei's voice was not loud, they could all hear it, and their whole souls seemed to be cleansed.
After a long time, Bei Lingyao stopped, slowly closed the book, and felt happy.
[When I was in the cultivation world, I kept thinking about the Tao Te Ching, but I just couldn't remember the entire text. Now that I'm reading it again, I feel completely refreshed.]
The system couldn't understand, "What's so comfortable about this? It's just a book."
[If you don't practice Taoism, you won't understand the feeling of this book.]
Bei Lingyao also learned the Tao Te Ching during her nine years of compulsory education, but she didn't feel anything at that time.
But after experiencing the world of cultivation, the feeling of reading this book is different.
Her entire soul cannot be sublimated. If she still had cultivation, she would definitely be able to reach a higher level.
[Hey, my spiritual awareness has grown.]
Is it really that magical?
The system cannot detect Bei Lingyao's spiritual consciousness, but it knows how powerful the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator is.
However, the host is just a foundation-building cultivator. No matter how strong his spiritual sense is, it is not that strong and can only deal with mortals.
[have]
Bei Lingyao was filled with joy at this moment, as she no longer needed the Heart Sutra that she had practiced before.
Although I have no cultivation now, it is a great surprise that reciting the Tao Te Ching can quickly cultivate my spiritual consciousness.
Emperor Shengwu felt so comfortable when he woke up. He hadn't had such a good sleep for a long time.
After that, every time Emperor Shengwu came to Yufu Palace, he would ask Bei Lingyao to recite the Tao Te Ching to help him sleep, and then return to Taiji Palace to handle government affairs.
The court officials wanted to say that Emperor Shengwu was violating the rules by not allowing them to favor his concubine for more than five days, but he himself went to Yufu Palace every day.
Some also wanted to continue impeaching Concubine Bei as a witch who seduced the emperor, but seeing that Emperor Shengwu was in high spirits every day and was more diligent in handling state affairs.
Could it be a last gasp?
Let's wait a little longer.
This wait lasted until the Winter Solstice Palace Banquet.
"Your Majesty, the Madam will enter the palace today."
Zhihua was very happy. Her mother worked for the lady, and the lady would definitely bring her mother with her when she entered the palace.
Bei Lingyao flipped through several books in the warehouse and asked Nanny Sun to prepare gifts for Zhihua and the others.
She looked into her lower abdomen with her consciousness and found a small embryo.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully completing one month of pregnancy. Reward: 20 points and one pregnancy-preserving pill. The host's account balance is 130 points.]
Bei Lingyao swallowed the pregnancy-preserving pill, but still felt that her points were increasing too slowly.
[When should Qizhi Pills be taken?]
[Qizhi Pills can be given to babies after birth.]
Bei Lingyao thought so too. If she took it now, it would be for her to enlighten her mind, not for the baby.
[When does the host intend to let Emperor Shengwu know?]
[The imperial physician should be able to find out. We just need to find a suitable opportunity.]
Bei Lingyao paused and said that today was the Winter Solstice Banquet, so Emperor Shengwu could also know in private.
But wait, there's no rush.
Bei Lingyao walked to the desk, slowly ground the ink, spread out the rice paper, and sat down to copy the book.
