"Your Majesty, how could you be so foolish as to bring the Queen into the court? This is a sign of disaster for the country."
All the ministers knelt on the ground. Xu Lingyi stood on the high platform and looked down at these people. She knew that these people could not change the emperor's decision, and she would not back down at this moment.
She wants to challenge their cognition and make them get used to her presence.
"The Queen is pregnant, and I am worried, so I brought her here. If you disturb the Queen and my son, you should consider the consequences and the price."
The emperor threatened him, and he has become much softer in recent years, but that doesn't mean he can tolerate others telling him what to do.
From the beginning to the end, he was the master of this world and the one who held the power of life and death.
"Your Majesty, if you are concerned about the Queen, you can send guards to look after her. Why bring her into the court? The morning court is about important matters of state. How can the Queen, a mere woman, be here?"
Xu Lingyi rolled her eyes in her heart.
"The Queen is just sitting next to me and won't express any opinions. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of the Queen or the Xu family?"
The emperor asked.
The Prime Minister also spoke up at this time, "Your Majesty, the Xu family is already powerful, and the Crown Prince is still young. If something happens to you in the future, your relatives will inevitably interfere in the court. Will the world then be ruled by the Li or Xu family?"
"I know the Xu family's loyalty better than any of you. General Xu will not betray me. You don't need to say anything more."
Xu Lingyi's father was indeed a loyal minister.
In fact, the vast majority of officials in the court are loyal to the king.
The education they received since childhood was that the emperor is the leader of the ministers and they must be loyal to the emperor.
This is the case with General Xu, not to mention his long-standing friendship with the emperor.
In the previous life, my mother and sisters-in-law died, but my father was heartbroken and had no thoughts of betrayal.
The emperor also trusted my father, so the military power was not taken back, and the Xu family controlled all the military power on the border.
Afterwards, a minister wanted to commit suicide by hitting his head against the beam, and someone tried to stop him.
The emperor said in a deep voice: "Just go ahead and hit it. If you are not afraid, go ahead and die. As for your family and your clan, I believe you don't care about them either. Let them go with you."
The man stood there in a daze, crying bitterly.
The emperor watched coldly, using this man as a warning to others. No minister dared to threaten him with death again, and it was decided that Xu Lingyi would follow him to the morning court.
Until the tenth month of her pregnancy, Xu Lingyi stayed by the emperor's side. Although she didn't speak, she would silently record what happened in the court and how the emperor handled it.
Sometimes when she was feeling uncomfortable during pregnancy, the emperor would hold her in his arms and share interesting things in the court with her.
She still remembered what happened in her previous life. A few years later, the emperor would die in an accident.
By that time, her eldest prince would be almost ten years old, nine years old.
The child is so young, and they will be an orphan and a widow when the time comes. Instead of handing over power to those old ministers, where they and their child will be controlled by others, it would be better for her to take power.
She is not without support. Behind her is the Xu family and the Xu family's army of thousands of soldiers.
Xu Lingyi never moved out of the emperor's bedroom. Being close to the emperor meant she could learn more knowledge and methods.
A few months later, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, which was a good omen. The emperor was extremely excited that day.
Both children were born at full term and looked healthy.
The prince is now over one year old. He has taken the fitness pills and intelligence pills fed to him by Xu Lingyi. Now he is as strong as a calf, with a lively and cheerful temperament, and is extremely smart.
The emperor was no longer as worried about the prince's early death as before, especially since he now had a second prince.
The crisis of succession to the throne has largely disappeared at this moment.
He drank quite a bit of wine, hugged Xu Lingyi and couldn't help but sigh: "It's my blessing to have a queen. I never thought I would have so many children now."
He already has three children, including a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.
Now that he has a son and a daughter, he is content.
Xu Lingyi smiled gently and respectfully, and slowly began to paint a rosy picture for the emperor.
"Your Majesty, are you satisfied with having three children now? But I want to bear more children for Your Majesty. Even if my pregnancy is uncomfortable, I want to make Your Majesty happier and have more princes."
The emperor was moved and knew that the queen really loved him.
"I will never let you down in this life." The emperor held her hand.
In the next seven or eight years, Xu Lingyi did this to consolidate his favor and also because she herself liked children.
So she chose to take the elixir for fertility again in the third year.
Nine months later she gave birth to twins, but they were two princes.
The emperor was ecstatic! He trusted and loved her even more, and Xu Lingyi could now review memorials while he was busy with his children.
Every word she wrote now held great weight.
Floods...those natural and man-made disasters, she has been able to handle them with ease from being cautious at the beginning to now.
————
The little princess is now at the age of being lively, cute and naughty.
"Father, Father, hold me, I want it! Beard! Beard!"
"Father, I want one too!" The older brother of the twins jumped up.
Her daughter climbed onto the emperor's back and grabbed his beard with her little hands.
The emperor remained calm and his face was full of love.
He was very kind to each of his children, loving them but still maintaining his dignity.
Perhaps it was the lesson from Princess Minghua that he no longer spoiled his children blindly, but loved them in moderation.
Of course, he was extremely doting on them in daily little matters and was reluctant to lose his temper with them, but the emperor paid special attention to their character.
Among the five children she gave birth to, the emperor loved the only princess the most.
A prince can stabilize his imperial power, and he needs more than one prince, but if we put aside these worldly things.
In the emperor's heart, he liked his daughter more.
He lamented to Xu Lingyi more than once that his daughter resembled her father.
"Mingzhu is the one who looks most like me among the children. She's small, but has a resolute and strong temper. Her personality is exactly like mine as a child: overbearing yet spoiled. She'll do whatever she wants. When I see her, it's like seeing myself as a child."
The emperor and Xu Lingyi lamented that their daughter was overbearing, but they both knew that it was all because of the emperor's spoiling.
But her children are all kind-hearted.
Every time Xu Lingyi saw her children and watched them interact with the emperor, she would feel hesitant.
He is the emperor, but he is also the father who loves his children the most in the world.
For the sake of her child, should she try to save the accident that killed him?
