The emperor was suddenly shocked.
The little money-grubber actually uttered such a philosophical statement. It actually agreed with his opinion.
From ancient times to the present, people have attached great importance to offspring.
The late emperor had many descendants.
His dozen or so brothers were fighting with each other, with no sincerity between them, and they fought for that little bit of power and got hurt.
The late emperor watched them fight, occasionally picking out some disputes to stir up trouble, and then sat on the mountain to watch the fight.
Those princes tried their best to prove their abilities, to help the emperor, and to gain his approval.

The civil servants were terrified and shouted that they dared not.
The emperor laughed and said, "It's not the number of sons that matters, but their quality. I'm not anxious, so why are you anxious?"
A civil official bravely said, "It is really inappropriate for the emperor to favor the imperial concubine alone."
Hearing this, the prince clenched his fists and the smile in his eyes disappeared.
