The reborn beauty is pregnant again and again
Chapter 411: Evil and Scheming True Gold 29
"Okay," Jiang Nanqiu nodded, "I'll wait for you at home." After Jiang Nanqiu finished speaking, she was about to leave, but this time it was Xiao Chenyan who held her hand, reluctant to let go.
It was not until the eunuch outside announced that several ministers from the court had arrived that Xiao Chenyan reluctantly let go of Jiang Nanqiu's hand.
Several ministers also saw Xiao Chenyan's affectionate look. It was the first time they saw him like this and they were all very surprised.
"I have long heard that the prince and princess have a very close relationship. Now it seems that the rumors are true. Elder Li, I am afraid there is no hope for your granddaughter."
The ministers were not always on good terms with each other and they also restrained each other.
"That may not be the case. After the Emperor ascended the throne, there have always been 3,000 concubines in the harem. No matter what, the prince will fill up the harem sooner or later. It's just a pity that your family, Lord Sun, does not seem to have any women of marriageable age."
Besides, how could there be any deep love between husband and wife? It was just that they were deceived by beauty. Jiang Shi was indeed much more beautiful than ordinary women. But no matter how beautiful a face was, it would fade one day, and the prince could not stay with her forever.
Seeing Xiao Chenyan enter the hall, several elders stopped talking.
A few hours later, after finishing their state affairs, several ministers started chatting with Xiao Chenyan about the selection of concubines after he ascended the throne.
Actually, they were discussing the matter of ascending the throne today, and the selection of talents was one of the matters concerning ascending the throne.
Xiao Chenyan's face darkened: "I don't plan to select a concubine. I have only one princess, which is enough for me."
The ministers were horrified. They knew that the prince was not interested in women, but they never knew he had such thoughts.
But how could this be possible? The elders immediately knelt on the ground and refused to leave.
Gu Zhao looked at all this and said, "Your Majesty, let me send them away."
When Gu Zhao came back again, it was already an hour later.
"These old guys are so pedantic that I am almost going to tear my tongue out. Your Majesty, I still think the border is better. If I were in the border, I wouldn't have to face these old guys."
"Your Highness, when the court is stable, I will go to the border to assist Brother Zhou."
Gu Zhao likes the freedom of the frontier. Even if it is for the sake of his parents not to go to the battlefield, he is unwilling to stay in the capital.
In fact, Xiao Chenyan’s idea was the same as his.
After being busy for the past few days, Xiao Chenyan realized how heavy the burden on his father's shoulders was.
He thought that after finishing the burial of the previous emperor, he would prepare for the enthronement. However, he did not expect that those cabinet ministers would come with a large group of civil and military officials and once again persuade Xiao Chenyan to fill his harem.
Xiao Chenyan was almost laughing out of anger. He threw the brush he was using to review memorials and said, "What? Do these ministers really think they can control me?"
No matter who kneels there, it is useless for Xiao Chenyan to make the decision.
"Do they think that I am as merciful as my father and will not take action?" Xiao Chenyan raised his thin lips in a sneer.
"All military power is in my hands. I have the final say over the whole world. As for these civil officials, whoever I want to die will die!"
Xiao Chenyan was already upset and was unwilling to be soft-hearted towards these civil servants.
When the emperor's father was alive, although he participated in government affairs, he was considerate of his father and did not use harsh methods. These people probably thought that he was a kind person and they could let him be restrained.
"But, Your Majesty, it's not good to kill too many civil servants. Your reputation will be ruined... Besides, there are many scholars in the world who admire them..."
Gu Zhao didn't say anything more. He also disliked these civil servants, but they all held the pen in their hands. If Xiao Chenyan's methods were too cruel, he would definitely be called a tyrant.
Xiao Chenyan naturally knew what Gu Zhao said.
But in the face of absolute force, these are nothing. Moreover, he is a person who does not care about reputation, so naturally he does not care about the comments of future generations.
Therefore these did not threaten him.
"Your Highness, in fact, the suggestions of the elders are all very normal. Throughout history, there has never been an emperor who did not take concubines. Your offspring is related to the country," Gu Zhao said in a low voice. Although he should not say this from his point of view, after all, Jiang Nanqiu is now a member of their Gu family. But this is the truth. As an emperor, Xiao Chenyan did not take concubines, which was really shocking. An emperor who guarded a woman was unprecedented. Even Gu Zhao himself, when he first heard about this, couldn't believe it.
Xiao Chenyan glanced over coldly and said, "Shouldn't the stability of the country depend on my ability?"
Gu Zhao stopped talking, and Xiao Chenyan also fell silent. But he would never change his decision easily.
Xiao Chenyan will never forget the look in Jiang Nanqiu's eyes when his father said he wanted to take a concubine for him. He would never hurt her heart, and he really only wanted her.
......
"Your Majesty, the imperial physician requests to see you."
"Let him in." Xiao Chenyan pressed the Tianyang acupoint, "How is Jinghui?"
Except for the Queen and Jing Hui, Xiao Chenyan has no feelings for other siblings and relatives.
"Your Majesty, the poison in the emperor's eldest grandson was discovered too late, and he has been poisoned for too long. If it had been discovered a few years earlier, he could have been saved, but now the poison has penetrated deep into his bones. Even if Hua Tuo were reborn, he would be powerless to save him."
Xiao Chenyan's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression became even uglier.
On the day the late emperor passed away, Jing Hui collapsed upon hearing the news.
At that time, Xiao Chenyan thought she was too sad, but now he knows that it was because he had been poisoned a long time ago. Although Jing Hui is the only blood of the second emperor and the eldest grandson of the emperor, he is just a bastard. In the past few days, Xiao Chenyan found out that he was poisoned by his second sister-in-law herself, and it had been many years.
"Is there really no other way?" Xiao Chenyan asked.
Xiao Jinghui was raised by his father, the emperor, and his mother, the queen. When he was in the palace, he only had contact with Jinghui. If she knew that he was like this, I'm afraid her mother would not be able to bear it.
"I am incompetent."
Xiao Chenyan's expression was solemn: "How long will he last?"
"The Emperor's eldest grandson was poisoned by a chronic poison. Although the poison has taken effect now, he can still hold on for about three years. Moreover, the poison is mild. In the first two years or so, the Emperor's eldest grandson was no different from ordinary people. It's just that the last six months... will be extremely difficult, and his physical condition will deteriorate sharply." Xiao Chenyan let out a heavy sigh, and finally he made a decision.
"Keep this secret from Jing Hui and everyone else. No one is allowed to leak it. If the emperor's eldest grandson finds out, you don't have to stay."
His voice was particularly cold and solemn, and the doctors nodded quickly.
Since there are two and a half years, Jing Hui's body will not be affected too much on the surface. There is no need for him to worry from now on.
"Prepare the car." Xiao Chenyan was in a depressed mood as one of his relatives had just passed away and another was about to die.
Xiao Cenyan didn't care about many people, Jing Hui was one of them, and he was so young.
