A Cai's work The Emperor's Phoenix: The Godly Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine ... Volume 1 2024 News, are you really not good enough?

Is the Ninth Prince crazy? He actually said in front of all the civil and military officials during the morning court session that it would be difficult for him to have children. Doesn't he know what this means?

This kind of thing concerns male dignity. Not to mention the emperor, even ordinary men would not admit it in public. What is the Ninth Prince trying to do?

Don’t think about taking a concubine. They can think of other ways. Once such words are spread out, what will the ministers in the court think? What will the emperors of Nanling, Beiling and Xiling think?

Wang Jinling looked at the Ninth Prince, but unfortunately the distance between them was too far. The Ninth Prince could not see the dissatisfaction in Wang Jinling's eyes. Of course, even if he saw it, the Ninth Prince would not care. In order to convince all the ministers in the court that he was indeed injured, the Ninth Prince directly summoned the imperial physician into the hall and explained his condition.

The imperial physician had no guilt about this, because that was the fact. When the Ninth Prince was still a child, someone gave him a drug that harmed his body, and he had been seriously injured before, which had damaged his vitality.

The ministers did not dare to ask whether it was medicine or not. They did not want the Ninth Prince to have descendants. There were only a few people who were capable of drugging the Ninth Prince, and they could guess it even with their knees.

However, the ministers still couldn't help but believe that the Ninth Prince would have no offspring in the future, and they were even more unwilling to believe it. Seeing that the Ninth Prince was not angry, some of them boldly asked, "Where is the baby in Miss Feng's belly?"

"Your Majesty is just having difficulty in having children, not being childless. Besides, the child in Miss Feng's belly was conceived before Your Majesty was injured." The imperial physician's words were clever. He did not say anything for sure, but hinted that the Ninth Prince had difficulty in having children because he was injured last time.

"Then will Your Majesty be able to have children in the future?" The prime minister asked this in front of everyone. There was no girl of marriageable age in his family, and he asked this question without any selfish motives, purely out of concern for the future heir of Dong Ling.

"Yes, but it is much more difficult than for ordinary people." The Ninth Prince did not care. The imperial physician naturally said clearly: "Whether the emperor can have children in the future depends on God's will."

And things like God's will are not something that can be determined by humans at all.

After this statement was made, those officials who had advised the Ninth Prince to recruit concubines for the sake of his offspring dared not say a word. Those officials who secretly planned to send their daughters or relatives' children to the palace dared not say a word.

They sent their beautiful daughter into the palace not to make her a plaything for the emperor, but to give birth to a prince. Even if she could not become emperor in the future, she could be made a prince, and the mother would be honored by the son and take care of her family.

Now, it is difficult for the Ninth Prince to have children. Instead of sending their daughter to the palace to suffer, it would be better for them to marry her to a family of equal status and gain more benefits.

As for the rumors outside, if a concubine in the harem is favored, her mother's family will also be promoted, that is simply a joke. Unless you can be a favored concubine like Feng Qingchen, it is all a dream to think about how you can take care of your family.

Not to mention that the Ninth Prince was not a person obsessed with beauty, even if the emperor was obsessed with beauty, he would not reward a concubine's family generously just because he liked her. The harem cannot interfere in politics. Since ancient times, the previous dynasty can decide the status of women in the harem, but whether a woman in the harem is favored or not has nothing to do with the previous dynasty.

In fact, even if Feng Qingchen was as favored as he was, the Ninth Prince would not be able to take care of the Fengli clan. When Feng Liyou was fighting outside, the Fengli clan members were left in the capital as hostages.

After the court officials had asked their questions, the hall fell silent. Everyone lowered their heads in deep thought, and no one knew what they were thinking about.

The Ninth Prince didn't care about what they were thinking at all. After he finished speaking, he announced that he would withdraw from the court. As for what consequences this news would bring, the Ninth Prince didn't care at all.

I thought this would last for a while, but unexpectedly, that afternoon, the battle report came from the Nanling front. It turned out that the granary in Nanling was burned down ten days ago, and the soldiers in the Nanling army had no food to eat. Now it was winter, and even grass did not grow, so they could not dig grass to eat to fill their stomachs.

If you are hungry, you can't bear the sword and gun. Feng Liyou took the opportunity to attack. The soldiers of Dongling fought bravely and captured five cities in just ten days. In the end, Dongling didn't even have to fight. The soldiers defending the city opened the city gates and surrendered automatically, just to have a full meal.

Dongling is unstoppable, the morale of the army is high, and the destruction of Nanling is imminent!

"We are finally going to take over Nanling." Even the Ninth Prince couldn't help but feel happy after seeing the battle report.

Now that Nanling has been recovered, the next step will be Xiling. By then, with the combined strength of the three kingdoms, it will only take a few minutes to capture Beiling.

"The world is finally unified in my hands." The Ninth Prince let out a long sigh. It was not until this moment that he dared to relax a little and stop pushing himself so hard.

The news of Nanling's surrender instantly overshadowed the news of the Ninth Uncle's difficulty in having an heir. As the due date drew closer, everyone in the Feng Mansion focused on Feng Qingchen's belly, and they were not so quick to respond to news from the outside world. By the time Feng Qingchen learned what the Ninth Uncle had said at the morning court, she almost broke the bowl in her hand.

"Is that really what is being said outside?" Feng Qingchen was dumbfounded. The Ninth Prince is not capable?

How is this possible...

Tong Jue nodded repeatedly, looking embarrassed and awkward. After all, she was a woman, and even if she was brave enough, she couldn't remain calm when discussing such things in public.

Feng Qingchen's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked in disbelief, "How could the Ninth Prince allow such a rumor to spread in the city?"

The Ninth Prince is now the emperor, so it is not difficult for him to control public opinion. Could it be that the Ninth Prince released this himself?

"I heard that it was the Ninth Prince who said it in the palace. All the ministers in the court heard it, and there was also the imperial physician to testify." Tong Jue adjusted his mood and told the whole story.

Sure enough, something happened. Feng Qingchen nodded blankly and waved his hand mechanically, signaling Tong Jue to leave.

Feng Qingchen already knew that it was difficult for the Ninth Prince to have an heir, but she didn't expect that the Ninth Prince would actually say it in public. However, in this way, no minister would persuade the Ninth Prince to expand his harem in the future, and the preciousness of the child in her belly would increase by another 10%.

According to the Ninth Prince's current physical condition, the child in her belly might be his only offspring. If nothing unexpected happens, he will not only be the future master of Dongling, but also inherit everything of the Fengli clan.

No one would criticize such a child, even if he was an illegitimate child.

Feng Qingchen didn't know whether she should be happy or uneasy at this moment. In short, the Ninth Prince's move was far beyond her expectations. She had never thought that the Ninth Prince would use this method to shut up the civil and military officials and pave the way for her and her baby...

Feng Qingchen patted his belly and said with emotion: "It is true that people have different destinies. As soon as you were born, you became the only heir to the Kyushu Continent. Others can never reach your level even if they work hard for ten lifetimes."
