However, Concubine De's plan was impossible to succeed. Wushuang said in her heart that the one who finally got lucky and became the new emperor of the Great Zhou was the eighth prince Zhou Yong.
[God damn Zhou Rong, he not only killed his brothers, he even spared his sisters. To say he is the reincarnation of Hu Hai is really no different from Hu Hai.]
Hu Hai defeated the Qin Dynasty in three years, while Zhou Yong defeated the Zhou Dynasty in five years and even killed all his brothers and sisters.
[Of course, several of his brothers died early because they were framed, not because they were killed after he ascended the throne.]
However, later generations unraveled the story and discovered that there was a struggle for the throne, but also a frame-up by Consort De and her family.
【Damn Zhou Rong.】
[Wow, will I not live long? I finally grew up, and now Zhou Rong ascends the throne. Will I still die?]
【Woo woo woo, it’s better to die early and be reborn early. 】
Zhou Yunhuang couldn't help but frown as he listened to Wushuang's inner thoughts.
After so many days, he finally heard the news about the prodigal new emperor, but he didn't expect it was the eighth prince born to Concubine De.
What should he say?
Was Concubine De's dream really that accurate? Did her youngest son actually become emperor?
But why couldn't this kid Zhou Yong be a good emperor?
Not only did he kill all his brothers and sisters, he also defeated the Zhou Dynasty in just five years. This is indeed comparable to the famous Hu Hai.
Wushuang didn't care what Zhou Yunhuang thought. Her mission was just to prevent Zhou Yunhuang from having no descendants and to prevent the people from suffering.
She believed that Zhou Yunhuang's methods were definitely more powerful than those of Zhou Yong, and even more powerful than Concubine De, so she just needed to let Zhou Yunhuang handle it himself.
"Your Majesty, I came to see Wushuang."
A charming and gentle voice sounded, interrupting Wushuang and Zhou Yunhuang's thoughts, and they all looked at the person at the door.
Concubine Li, who had not yet finished her confinement, knew how to arouse sympathy. She did not dress herself up or wear anything particularly gorgeous.
She dressed in a delicate style. She didn't wear white clothes, but just a plain and elegant dress. The makeup on her face was also the kind that made her look very delicate.
It was of course impossible for her to meet Zhou Yunhuang without makeup. Her skin condition was very bad after she became pregnant. Even after giving birth, she paid attention to skin care, but she didn't maintain it very well.
The time is too short.
So she put on makeup to cover up some of the blemishes on her face.
Now she looked like a delicate little white flower, and her eyes were full of tenderness as she looked at Zhou Yunhuang.
Zhou Yunhuang felt helpless as he saw the lingering gaze looking at him.
You're trying to seduce him before you're even out of confinement?
What can be the result?
Does she know that she is still in confinement?
But considering that she was Wushuang's biological mother, Zhou Yunhuang did not scold her.
"Come and see Wushuang. No, she is sleeping over there. Go and take a look." Zhou Yunhuang said to Concubine Li.
As an emperor with a lot of affairs to deal with, Zhou Yunhuang couldn't hold Wushuang in his arms all the time, and he couldn't hold her in his arms all the time when reviewing memorials.
So when he was busy, he would let Wushuang lie in the crib beside him. She would play when she woke up and sleep when she was full. She was quite content.
After hearing Zhou Yunhuang's words, Concubine Li looked at him with resentment and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, you haven't visited me for a long time..."
"I am so sad..."
"I'm very busy." Zhou Yunhuang said.
He is indeed very busy.
After hearing his daughter's thoughts, he became busy taking care of his children and wanted to train them according to their talents.
He was busy dealing with the possibility that the Great Zhou might be destroyed. How could he have so much time to talk about love with his concubine?
Especially since Concubine Li was still in confinement after childbirth, there was really no need for him to see the concubine who could not serve him in bed.
Concubine Li was very sad.
"Your Majesty, I know you are doing this for my own good...but, but I miss you so much..."
Concubine Li used the excuse of coming to see Wushuang, but when she really got here, she only wanted to attract Zhou Yunhuang's attention and had no intention of looking at her daughter at all.
See what she does?
Why should she care about a daughter who made her suffer so much during childbirth and was not raised by her after she was born?
The point is, this is a daughter.
The princess is not a prince, she can't move up to a higher level with the help of this child, so why should she care about her?
[Tsk tsk tsk, my mother is really something. She's not even out of confinement yet, and she's already trying to hook up with my father?]
Does she know that frequent pregnancies are bad for her health? Especially since she hasn't finished her confinement period yet. If she gets pregnant again, she might end up with a uterine prolapse?
This time, Concubine Li also heard Wushuang's thoughts. She suddenly looked towards the crib not far away with a fierce look in her eyes.
What is that sound?
Why did she expose her like this?
What's wrong with giving birth frequently?
Having many children brings happiness, what a blessing it is, isn’t it?
Hurt your body?
As a royal consort, she must have many imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital to take care of her health. She might even have His Majesty's personal physician to take care of her health. What is she afraid of?
But Concubine Li was not so sure.
Uterine shedding?
Is this really happening?
[My mother is truly clueless. She actually fantasizes that my father truly loves her and would depose the queen for her? And then crown her the new queen?]
[Do you have to be so whimsical? ]
Zhou Yunhuang looked at Concubine Li with a half-smile, and she stopped in her tracks as she was about to walk towards him.
She knelt down quickly and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't do that. I dare not."
Although she thought so in her heart, she knew from Zhou Yunhuang's expression that he had not thought so. Of course, Concubine Li could not question him carelessly.
She wasn't really so stupid that she couldn't even understand the expression of the emperor, her immediate superior whom she needed to please, but she also felt aggrieved.
It is obvious that His Majesty dotes on her so much and that they are in love, so why doesn't he make her the queen?
Is it because her family background is not as good as that woman from the Mo family?
What's so good about Mrs. Mo?
How could His Majesty like an old, boring woman?
It must be because of her family background...
If, if she could bring about the defeat of Mo's family, then could His Majesty depose Mo and make her the empress?
"Concubine Li, what are you afraid of?" Zhou Yunhuang said, "Alright, since you didn't come here to see Wushuang sincerely, please leave."
Originally, she was allowed to come because she was Wushuang's biological mother, but now she should go back and take care of herself after the baby's birth.
"Take good care of yourself during your confinement period. Don't come out before the full moon." Zhou Yunhuang said lightly.
"Your Majesty—" Concubine Li looked up in shock.
Your Majesty, are you going to put her under house arrest?
How can this be?
"Alright, go back now. I have things to attend to." Zhou Yunhuang waved his hand and said, "Women need to observe confinement after giving birth. Just stay there and observe the confinement period obediently."
Concubine Li was very unwilling. She hadn't even succeeded in seducing the man yet, so why was she being confined?
