After picking up a childbirth system, I pampered the harem

As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, Emperor Jiaqing walked in. All the maids and eunuchs in the palace knelt down to greet him, and even the queen stood up to greet him.

In the entire palace, the Queen Mother did not have to salute to Emperor Jiaqing. After all, she was the Queen Mother, the biological mother of Emperor Jiaqing.

"My son, please give your regards to the Queen Mother!" Emperor Jiaqing saluted the Queen Mother.

"My grandson pays homage to the imperial grandmother, and pays homage to the imperial aunt!"

"Greetings to the Queen Mother, hello to the Queen Mother!"

Emperor Jiaqing's son Yu and his grandson also bowed and greeted him.

The Queen Mother is the legitimate mother of Li Yu's father, Wang Yuwang, so the Queen Mother is not his biological grandmother, but in name, the Queen Mother is also his royal grandmother.

"No need to be polite," the Queen Mother said.

Both children were members of the royal family, and would be brought into the palace by the elders of the family every time they returned to the palace banquet, so the Queen Mother was not unfamiliar with them.

"Caiyun, go and bring up the gifts from the Ai family to the two young masters." The Queen Mother said to Aunt Qin standing aside.

After receiving the order, Aunt Qin quickly brought over the gifts prepared in advance.

The gifts prepared by the Queen Mother for both of them were a set of Four Treasures of the Study. Naturally, something that could be given away by the Queen Mother was not an ordinary thing. This set of Four Treasures of the Study was extremely valuable and very precious.

The Queen Mother gave the two children the Four Treasures of the Study, which also meant that the two children would study and study hard. The fact that the gifts for the two children were the same also showed that she treated both children equally and impartially.

When Li Yu and Li Xian saw this, they happily took it and thanked them.

They are all scholars, so they naturally understand these things. Moreover, they are from the royal family, so they still have this vision. Li Xian's grandfather has a set of Four Treasures of the Study at home, which is exactly the same as the one given to them by the Queen Mother. His grandfather has always kept it and is reluctant to take it. Come out and use it.

In addition to the Queen Mother, the Queen also gave gifts, a pendant to Crown Prince Yu, and a paperweight in the shape of a tiger carved from white jade to Prince Zhuang's grandson.

After receiving the gifts, the two children also thanked the queen.

The Queen Mother said caring words to the Empress and the two children, and her meaning was roughly the same as what Emperor Jiaqing said to them before, which was to let them live peacefully in the palace without being too restrained or stressed.

The Queen Mother had just recovered from a serious illness, so her energy was limited. In addition, the two children had just arrived on their first day, so she didn't say much. After all, the time was long. After talking to the two children for a while, she let them leave.

In this way, the two children lived in the palace.

Everyone knows that the emperor will choose an adoptive person from these two children, and the future prince will be one of these two children.

For a time, Prince Yu's Mansion and Prince Zhuang's Mansion were full of greeting cards. However, Prince Yu's Mansion and Prince Zhuang's Mansion knew that this was an important period and did not dare to cause trouble at all, so they just ignored the greeting cards.

The eldest son of Prince Yu's Palace and the younger grandson of Prince Zhuang's Palace lived in the palace. Naturally, the concubines in the harem knew about this and even met these two children.

Everyone thought that the future prince would be one of the two children, but only Jiang Wan knew in her heart that these two children would not be adopted by the emperor.

Who said the emperor had no children? With her here, the emperor would have his own heirs, and Crown Prince Yu would not be adopted into the emperor's name and become the future crown prince.

Jiang Wan's enemy was none other than Princess Yu's younger brother and Prince Yu's uncle, Liu Cong, who had replaced Jiang Wan's older brother Jiang Feng.

Although Jiang Wan had never met this Liu Cong, she also knew that this man was very arrogant, otherwise he would not dare to do anything to seize other people's fame. Not only that, he also had her father and brother injured.

The reason why Liu Cong dares to be so arrogant is because he has a father who is a minister and a sister who is a princess.

Although Jiang Wan didn't understand the government affairs, she also overheard her father and mother mentioning that the reason why Liu Cong was so arrogant was not only his father and princess, but also his nephew Prince Yu. The candidate who was adopted by the current emperor and named the crown prince.

Because in all calculations, Emperor Jiaqing had the closest relationship with Prince Yu, and almost everyone thought that Crown Prince Yu was the person most likely to be adopted into the name of the emperor.

If Xu Shoufu hadn't proposed the younger grandson of Prince Zhuang's residence, Prince Yu would have been adopted into the name of the emperor.

However, although Prince Yu and the younger grandson of Prince Zhuang were both brought into the palace, many people still believed that Prince Yu was the most suitable candidate.

As everyone guessed, Emperor Jiaqing and the Queen Mother indeed preferred Prince Yu.

Among the two children of Prince Yu and Xiao Shisun, Prince Yu was more familiar with the emperor and the Queen Mother. Prince Yu often visited the palace, and he could be considered to have grown up under the watch of Emperor Jiaqing and the Queen Mother.

Although Yu Shizi is not as talented and intelligent as Xiao Shisun, his knowledge is not too bad, and his temperament is relatively calm and reserved. Unlike Xiao Shisun, perhaps because of his younger age, he can't calm down. In addition, he has received a lot of praise at such a young age, and he has a somewhat proud and complacent temperament.

Originally, Emperor Jiaqing's initial choice was Crown Prince Yu. If the ministers in the court had not been divided into two factions and had a quarrel, he would have settled on Prince Yu's Crown Prince Li Yu.

The reason why the two children were brought into the palace together was just to see if Li Yu had the capacity to take on a big responsibility.

But it is obvious that Li Yu made Emperor Jiaqing very satisfied.

Emperor Jiaqing planned to announce his decision to adopt Li Yu's child in the court some time later, and then asked Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day to hold the adoption ceremony and make him the prince.
