After picking up a childbirth system, I pampered the harem

After driving a carriage for half a month, Jiang Wan and her group of showgirls arrived in the capital. In addition, showgirls from other prefectures also began to arrive one after another in the past few days. More than a hundred showgirls gathered together to watch. It's extremely spectacular.

Jiang Wan saw the palace for the first time. The towering walls and the splendid palace all shocked her and made her feel unreal. Everything here seemed out of place for her. She seemed to have wandered into another place. An outsider to the world.

She secretly glanced at the other show girls. They all looked happy and excited, with yearning in their eyes.

Yes, these people came here willingly. Seeing the magnificence of this palace, and thinking that they can live in such a luxurious palace, they naturally feel happy.

She was the only one who came here because she had no choice but to do so.

After entering the palace, the show girls need to learn the rules of the palace first, and finally they can meet the emperor and empress for the final election. The selected show girls will be kept, and those who are not selected will be used as palace maids. .

Jiang Wan studied very seriously. She knew that if she said the wrong thing in the palace, or took the wrong step, she might lose her life. If she learned the rules, she would not make a fool of herself in the future and be caught doing something wrong. .

There were 152 beautiful ladies selected from all the prefectures. However, some were eliminated due to illness or other reasons on the road. Only 148 beautiful ladies entered the palace.

During the month of learning the rules from the palace nuns, many beautiful girls were sent away for various reasons, and in the end only one hundred and twenty-one were left.

Jiang Wan naturally knew the reason why the beautiful girls were sent away. They were either framed by others, or they were sent out of the palace because they were discovered by their mammies because they wanted to frame others.

Fortunately, because her appearance was not outstanding among the show girls, her family background was not prominent, and she did not usually stand out, no one noticed her, so she was not targeted by other show girls.

But what surprised Jiang Wan was that Lin Yue stayed until the end.

You must know that after the other party entered the palace, she often told people about her infertile physique, and she was targeted by many people.

The system knew its doubts, so it explained to her: "Lin Yue's situation must have been reported to the emperor and the queen mother a long time ago. What the emperor needs most now is the prince, and Lin Yue has such a fertile physique. The emperor and the queen mother The Queen Mother will protect her, so no one can touch her."

After listening to the system's explanation, Jiang Wan felt that it was really smart. Unlike herself, it couldn't even understand such simple things. Without the system, she would probably not even have a bone left in the harem.

Soon the day of the election came. Normally, the queen would preside over the draft, but this time the queen mother attached great importance to it, so the queen mother personally presided over it. The emperor, the empress, and other concubines would all be present.

"Don't worry Wanwan, you will definitely be chosen." Seeing Jiang Wan's hands trembling with nervousness, the system comforted him.

The system's comfort was of some use. Thinking that the system was with her and that she was not alone, Jiang Wan's nervousness eased a lot.

The show girls were divided into groups of ten. Those whose names were called went in to meet the emperor and the queen mother, and were selected by them. Those who were selected were given a sachet with a sign, and those who were not selected were given a sachet with a sign. flower.

Jiang Wan was in the second to last group. There were already a hundred show girls in their group, but only six of them were given sachets.

Seeing this situation, the remaining people became more and more nervous.

The emperor and the queen mother obviously did not plan to add too many new people to the harem, so the chance of them being selected was very small.

When Jiang Wan heard the chamberlain chanting his name, Jiang Wan took a deep breath and then walked in followed by the other beautiful ladies.

When saluting the Emperor and the Queen Mother, Jiang Wan lowered her head very low and did not dare to look around at all. She only saw the bright yellow robe on the person in charge, and it was covered by the robe, with only the back of her shoes exposed.

"Everyone, raise your heads." A slightly deep male voice sounded from above.

Jiang Wan slowly raised her head after hearing the order.

The first thing that caught my eye was the man sitting in the middle. He looked to be in his mid-twenties, with a fair face, sword-like eyebrows, and a pair of deep black eyes, exuding a powerful aura.

This is their Emperor of Dayan, the Lord of the World. It turns out that he looks younger and more handsome than he imagined.

The Queen Mother sits on the left hand side of the Emperor, and the Queen sits on the right hand side.

The Queen Mother is fifty-two years old. She has many wrinkles on her face and her hair is much whiter. She looks very kind. As for the Queen, she is dignified and elegant, with a noble temperament and a sense of majesty between her eyebrows.

"Who is Lin Yue?" the Queen Mother asked aloud as she looked at the row of beautiful ladies standing below.

Jiang Wan and Lin Yue came from the same state, so they were placed in the same group.

Hearing the Queen Mother ask herself, Lin Yue was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward and answered: "Returning to the Queen Mother, this servant is Lin Yue."

After hearing her answer, everyone's eyes fell on her.

Although everyone has never seen this beautiful girl named Lin Yue, they have heard of her name for a long time, and they also know why the Queen Mother singled her out.

The Queen Mother was simply worried about the Emperor's heir. Naturally, she was extremely concerned about Lin Yue's infertile constitution.

Of course, in addition to the information from the investigation, the Queen Mother also asked the imperial physician to secretly check Lin Yue's pulse in private, and found that her body was indeed very healthy and she was easier to conceive than the other women.

Although Emperor Jiaqing had long given up any hope for an heir, the Empress Dowager had been mentioning this beautiful girl named Lin Yue in front of him during this period, and he remembered the name, especially what the Empress Dowager said about her possessing Her fertile physique gave rise to another fantasy in his heart.

Maybe she was the accident the mother mentioned.

But after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, Emperor Jiaqing felt that it was a bit hard to explain.

This Lin Yue's appearance is really ordinary.

As an emperor, although not all the concubines in Emperor Jiaqing's harem were as beautiful as gods, they were all pretty and beautiful even at worst. Emperor Jiaqing, who was used to beauties, really didn't like Lin Yue.

"You are indeed a healthy woman. You are in good health. The Ai family likes you. You have a strong body and strong bones so that you can give birth to a dragon heir for Your Majesty." The more the Queen Mother looked at Lin Yue, the more she liked her, so she immediately gave her the incense. bag.

Lin Yue was ecstatic when she heard that she had been kept, and she knelt down excitedly to thank her.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother's words made all the concubines present have different emotions. What the Queen Mother said was because they were too weak to give birth to a prince for His Majesty. But how can you blame them? His Majesty himself couldn't. Health, it has nothing to do with them.

However, even though they complained like this in their hearts, no one dared to say it out loud. After all, this was the pain point of the Emperor and the Queen Mother. They would only say such words if they didn't want to live anymore.

There were many concubines in His Majesty's harem who were pregnant, but none of them could give birth to a child. They did not believe that this woman named Lin Yue could give birth to an heir for His Majesty.

Emperor Jiaqing naturally had no objection to the Queen Mother's decision, while the Queen and the concubines naturally did not dare to say anything.

Although they had already guessed that Lin Yue would be chosen, after hearing that the Queen Mother had given her the sachet, the other ladies all cast envious glances at her.

"Does Your Majesty still have any beautiful girls that he likes?" The queen looked at Emperor Jiaqing and asked.

The queen's words made the remaining ladies hold their breath, and secretly prayed in their hearts that the emperor would like them.

Jiang Wan, who was ranked last among the show girls, was in the same mood as the other show girls, nervous and worried.

However, what disappointed them was that Emperor Jiaqing did not look at them at all, but said to the queen: "No need, it is enough to add so many new people to the harem."

After Emperor Jiaqing finished speaking, he told the Queen Mother that he still had important matters to deal with, and then stood up and left.

If the Empress Dowager had not proposed a draft, Emperor Jiaqing would not have thought of having a draft. His coming here this time was just a formality. The six showgirls selected earlier, including Lin Yue just now, were all the Empress Dowager, the Empress and others. He did not participate in the selection of several high-ranking concubines.

Naturally, all the show girls present heard what Emperor Jiaqing said. Knowing that they had lost the election, all of them were stunned. Did they come here with hope? Now their hope has turned into disappointment. , the dream of glory and wealth has come to naught, but you can still be happy.

As for Jiang Wan, who was standing in the corner, her little face turned pale. If she hadn't been worried about the situation here, she might have started wiping away tears.

She doesn't care about glory and wealth, she only wants to seek justice for her family. But now that she has lost the election, how can she win the emperor's favor and avenge her father and eldest brother?

Seeing the lost look of its host, the system felt that the Queen Mother and Emperor Jiaqing were really blind. Did they know that the person they were looking for who could give birth to a prince for their royal family was standing in front of them, but they were not They chose Lin Yue, who they valued and had high hopes for, and it was impossible for him to give birth to a prince.

"Although we were not selected, we are still in the palace and there will still be opportunities in the future." The system comforted Jiang Wan.

"Yes." Jiang Wan knew that the system was right. Although she lost the election, it did not mean that she had no chance. Therefore, she put away her sad mood and began to rekindle her fighting spirit.

She must not start to feel depressed just because she lost the election. She has no room to retreat. She is not only seeking justice for her family, but also for their family to survive. After all, who knows if that person will come back one day. Their family was in trouble, or maybe he felt that keeping their family was a scourge, and wanted to eradicate it.

That person was powerful and not something ordinary people like them could mess with. Crushing them to death would be like crushing an ant to death, so she couldn't give up even if the road ahead was bumpy.
