Chapter 29: The Emperor Without Heirs VS the Beautiful Concubine (29)



Three years after giving birth to triplets, Queen Gu became pregnant again.

Cining Palace.

"The Queen is pregnant again?" Empress Dowager Yu was overjoyed when she heard the news.

Her precious grandchildren come to play with her every day. They are adorable and filial, and she loves them very much.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Yu was very satisfied with Wushuang, the Queen, because she loved her and her family as well.

Even after Wushuang became the queen, she rarely managed the affairs of the harem. She basically either handed over the palace affairs to Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian, or to Empress Dowager Yu.

She was completely a hands-off boss.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that Wushuang knows nothing. She learns very quickly. It’s not that she doesn’t understand these things, she’s just too lazy to care.

Anyway, the women in the harem usually can't see Dongfang Che. Even if they do, it's impossible for them to have anything with him, let alone have children.

So Wushuang thought about it and handed over the palace affairs to Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian, so that they would not have nothing to do and cause trouble for her.

As for the fact that after the virtuous and virtuous concubines took charge of the palace affairs, they took the opportunity to place people there, and then plotted against her and framed her?

Wushuang is not afraid at all.

They didn't dare to harm her children, as they were treasures protected by His Majesty and the Queen Mother. If they were discovered, they would face the same fate as Su Mingxin.

Moreover, Wushuang also placed protective power around the children, so he was not afraid that anyone would plot against them.

Because Wushuang became a hands-off boss and did not manage the harem much, the empress dowager was quite dissatisfied at first.

Could she be a bit more queen-like?

But thinking about the three children she had given birth to, Empress Dowager Yu could only turn a blind eye.

Now that she knew Wushuang was pregnant again, Empress Dowager Yu was overjoyed.

"I've always said that Mrs. Gu is blessed. She's pregnant again," Empress Dowager Yu said happily. "I wonder if this time she's having more than one child?"

"But even if she is only pregnant with one child, she will still be a great contributor to our Dongfang family."

Gu ensured that her son had a successor and that the throne of the Dongfang family could be smoothly transferred, so she really didn't have much dissatisfaction with her.

"Come, open the warehouse for me and send some things to the Queen." Empress Dowager Yu said happily.

Carefully calculating what she could still give Wushuang, Empress Dowager Yu said, "No, I have to find a way to earn more. Otherwise, if Gu is reborn, I will have nothing to give her."

With Gu's physique of being fertile and having multiple babies, if she doesn't save more things, there won't be enough for her.

"The Empress Dowager is wise."

Jingyang Palace.

Concubine Qin, who was handling palace affairs, paused when she heard the news that Wushuang was pregnant again, and continued moving after a while.

"The Empress is a blessed person," Concubine Qin Xian said, and then ordered the maid beside her, "Go and send the golden doll from our storehouse to Fengqi Palace to celebrate the Empress's pregnancy again."

"yes."

Concubine Qin was a little envious. She couldn't help but look down at her belly. She also wanted a child of her own.

But it's just a thought.

Now His Majesty favors the Queen alone, and it is absolutely impossible for these concubines to get a share of the pie.

It has been more than three years, almost four years, and nothing has happened between His Majesty and the people in the harem.

Concubine Qin thought that perhaps it was because only the Queen could give birth to children for His Majesty, so His Majesty didn't want to have anything to do with other women.

But what should she do?

She is not even thirty years old this year. Is she going to waste the rest of her life like this in the harem?

Concubine Qin couldn't help but touch her face. She was not even thirty yet, but she was already old and ugly?

That shouldn't be the case. Her face doesn't look much different from when she was in her early twenties.

Fengxiang Palace.

"Gu Wushuang is pregnant again?" Concubine Zhao was very excited after hearing the news. How could Gu Wushuang be so lucky?

How long has it been? Only three years, and she's pregnant again?

"Your Majesty?" The trusted maid looked at her master cautiously and asked, "Should we do anything?"

"No need." Concubine Zhao Shu waved her hand. "Gu Wushuang's position is so stable, what can I do?"

"Even if I get Gu Wushuang down, will I be able to take over?"

"I don't have children, that's a fatal flaw."

Even if Gu Wushuang was really gone, she still left behind several children.

Judging from how much Dongfang Che values Gu Wushuang, it is unlikely that he will appoint another queen. After all, there has been no queen for so many years.

Gu Wushuang is really gone, and Dongfang Che would rather let the throne remain vacant than appoint another queen.

After all, he has already appointed the crown prince, and he will not change the crown prince as long as the crown prince does not die young.

Therefore, appointing another queen would harm the interests of the prince.

Concubine Zhao Shu sighed and said, "Why is Gu Wushuang so lucky?"

When the women in the harem learned that Wushuang was pregnant again, they were no longer as excited as they were at the beginning.

Let her be pregnant, after all, the only three children in the palace were born to her.

Now it’s just a matter of having one more child, or a few more children. What difference does it make?

They haven't given birth to any children anyway, so why get excited? It's not like they're pregnant.

After the news spread outside the palace, civil and military officials and the common people were very excited.

"The Queen is pregnant again? Is this true?"

"How many children will the Queen give birth to this time? She gave birth to three the first time. Will she give birth to four this time?"

"Perhaps the Queen will only give birth to one child this time?"

"No, no, no, the Queen is so blessed that she must be having multiple babies this time."
