Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

It seemed that Xiao Yanchen had really finished his work on the affairs of the previous dynasty, and he began to frequently go in and out of the harem.

Although most of the time she stayed at Shen Yao's place in Weiyang Palace to rest, other people in the harem also had the opportunity to meet Xiao Yanchen.

After seeing the real owner, some concubines could not wait and started to have ulterior motives. However, before they could take any action, the concubines in the harem who had become pregnant first by taking the secret medicine for childbearing began to show frequent bad symptoms.

Oh, such a big scene scared everyone to death.

Could it be that there is really something wrong with this recipe?

"That's right, there is a problem. The imperial physician said that the concubines' bodies have been damaged to varying degrees. If they continue to be pregnant, they may very well end up like the imperial concubine Zhou earlier."

What happened to Concubine Zhou? She exhausted her life in order to get pregnant and give birth to a child, but in the end both mother and child died. She died decisively.

Qiuyue patted his chest with lingering fear, looking extremely frightened.

Speaking of this secret recipe for having a child, it is really harmful to people. Even their Weiyang Palace has received the recipe.

If it weren't for the fact that our queen was capable enough to give birth to five royal heirs safely on her own, there's no telling what might have gone wrong.

"Among these people, the earliest one is already more than four months pregnant. Would they be willing to have an abortion?"

Shen Yao felt that this was a bit difficult as the means of self-rescue were too bloody and violent.

Many concubines in the harem were so anxious to have a child that they became heartbroken.

Shen Yao shook her head as she wanted to ask these people who were making their dreams come true to shatter their dreams with their own hands. It was very difficult.

Qiuyue shook her head, "Of course I'm reluctant, I heard that all the pregnant concubines rejected the proposal of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

The emperor did not say much about this, and did not even prohibit the recipe from being circulated among the harem. "

It was as if this matter was completely unimportant, leaving Qiuyue confused and not understanding the deep meaning behind the emperor's action.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows and smelled an unusual smell from it.

But she tacitly kept silent. What could she say? The royal family was cruel. If these concubines did not listen to advice, would the emperor order an abortion? Unless the emperor did not want his reputation.

In other words, whether these people can give birth to children safely or not has no impact on the emperor.

Anyway, the path of choice has been laid out clearly, and it depends on how these people choose.

Now that I think about it, there are many people who still choose to give it a try even if the road ahead is dangerous.

After bowing his head and pondering for a moment, Shen Yao waved his hand with a bored smile on his face, "Let's not talk about this, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held in a few days.

You will stay in the palace and take good care of the children. I may not be there."

Xiao Yanchen said he wanted to take her out to play and even said he wanted to spend the night in a mansion outside the palace.

Shen Yao was somewhat expectant; she really wanted to see the prosperity outside the palace in this world.

Hopefully, she won't be disappointed.

……

August 15th, Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Shen Yao was busy all morning and finally took Xiao Jin and the three children out of Weiyang Palace.

"Jin'er, when you enter the hall, take your brothers and sisters and stay seated. Don't leave.

If you have any problems, remember to ask your servants to come to me. I am busy and may not be able to take care of you. You must be more careful, understand?"

Sitting in the spacious sedan chair, Shen Yao patiently explained things to Xiao Jin beside her.

Not far away, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue huddled together and laughed like two silly little fools.

Shaking her head helplessly, Shen Yao could only focus all her attention on Xiao Jin.

There's no way, among these three children, Xiao Jin is the smartest and most sensible.

Those who are capable should do more work. Shen Yao also feels sorry for her son, but there is nothing she can do but ask for help.

Xiao Jin was in a good mood. He liked the feeling of managing and worrying about others. It was more like an innate leadership ability.

In daily life, whenever Xiao Jin speaks, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue will listen obediently and stop making trouble.

Well, Shen Yao once observed and concluded that this was Xiao Jin's authority as the eldest brother.

Xiao Jin nodded obediently, "Don't worry, mother, I understand."

It’s just taking care of two younger siblings. It’s too easy for him.

Before in Weiyang Palace, Xiao Jin took care of everyone wherever he went, and now that he was going to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Xiao Jin said that it was even less of a problem and he would make sure to keep a close eye on the two of them.

Shen Yao: ...That's not necessary.

"Mother believes in you," Shen Yao said softly, patted Xiao Jin's little shoulder, and hugged him in her arms again to love him well.

As for Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue, the two younger ones were having a blast playing nearby.

The two little idiots didn't care at all that their elder brother and their mother were showing off their mother-son affection in front of them.

The mother and her two children were carried by servants all the way to Taihe Palace, where the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was held.

This palace has been used for hosting various banquets and sacrifices all year round.

Not only does it have a large building area, but it can also be switched freely throughout the year.

Shen Yao has been in the harem for several years and comes to Taihe Palace quite a few times every year.

As for Xiao Jin and the other three, they started attending various festivals and banquets with her after they turned three years old, and they were also the main players who often appeared in the harem.

"Mother, we are here."

Qiuyue stood at the door of the sedan chair and whispered to the sedan chair as it descended.

Shen Yao reached out and lifted the door curtain, letting the three children come out and stand first, while she took Qiuyue's hand and bent down and stood up very quickly.

"mother concubine"

The three children gathered around Shen Yao and stared at the hall behind them where people were coming and going.

Shen Yao smiled, "Okay, let's go in. Remember what Mother said to you, especially Xiao Jin. You must not forget it."

Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue were both a little dull, and Shen Yao felt that no matter how much she said, it would be useless.

On the other hand, Xiao Jin has an extraordinary demeanor at a young age and has always been highly regarded by Shen Yao.

Xiao Jin nodded heavily, not feeling dissatisfied at all because of being told too many things.

He still has some cute baby fat on his face, which is very chubby and cute.

Holding his brother and sister by the hand, he said, "You two, make sure to follow your fourth brother closely."

Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue nodded repeatedly and patted their chests to make assurances, which was completely different from their previous attitude when they were laughing and playing in the sedan chair.

Shen Yao was not surprised when she saw this, because such things happened every day in Weiyang Palace.

The mother and her two children walked towards the main hall one after another. The palace servants passing by bowed and greeted them when they saw them.

Their destination this time was the main hall, which had the largest space and was also where most events were held in the palace.

When they arrived, there were already quite a few people sitting inside.

Shen Yao took a look, and then instructed Qiuyue beside her to send Xiao Jin's three children to the prince and princess first, while she would stay where she was and observe the layout and decoration of the palace.

Not to mention, although the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is held once a year, the decorations are different every time.

This time, probably at the emperor's instruction, the queen held a very grand ceremony.

Including the transplanted potted flowers and plants, each of them is of fine quality and priceless.

"Master, let me help you over there."

Unknowingly, Qiuyue had returned to Shen Yao's side. She raised her hand and placed it on Shen Yao's forearm with a calm look in her eyes.

Shen Yao hummed casually and turned to sit not far away.

At the head of the seats are the emperor and the empress.

Oh, I forgot to mention that, including the two Empress Dowagers and the Emperor Retired, the three big guys will not come to this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

The reason is that it is inconvenient to move because of the body.

Well, that's how the words came out. As to whether it's true or not, Shen Yao said she doesn't believe in rumors or spread them, and that the emperor will make the final decision on everything.

After sitting down, Shen Yao signaled Qiuyue that she could leave. For now, it was still safe here and Qiuyue didn't need to stay by her side all the time.

Qiuyue: ...Master, don't talk nonsense.

“What are you afraid of? The emperor and the queen haven’t come yet, so what can these people do?

Go down and do your work, and come back when the time is up."

Shen Yao did not forget that she would go out of the palace for a walk with the emperor tonight.

So, she doesn't need anyone to watch over her at all, and even Qiuyue being around her would affect her performance.

Qiuyue didn't say much about this, she just whispered "yes" and turned to socialize at the edge of the hall not far away.

In the main hall, many of the palace servants coming and going are Qiuyue’s familiar colleagues.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qiuyue moved around a lot and kept asking questions to get information.

Although some of the news is not important, Qiuyue always accepts all offers.

More and more people gathered in the hall. Shen Yao sat obediently in his seat, staring at the surrounding layout.

Tsk tsk, the queen's aesthetic is still as simple and crude as ever.

It’s not bad, but the style has remained the same for several years and there is nothing new or distinctive about it.

Maybe this had something to do with the Queen's condition? Anyway, Shen Yao had heard that the Queen was in poor health, but the Queen still let them go over to pay their respects as usual. Apart from her pale and ugly face, there was nothing wrong with her.

Shen Yao shrugged her shoulders and once again focused her gaze on the table in front of her.

The table was already filled with all kinds of food by the palace servants who had come over.

However, since it was not yet time for meal, all that was served were some cakes and tea.

It won’t satisfy your hunger, but it can be used to fill your stomach temporarily.

Shen Yao didn't do anything. She drank some soup before going out, so she wasn't hungry at the moment and didn't need to eat.

However, she relied on the system in her mind and discovered that there was something wrong with the cup used to hold tea.

Is it a powder that can cause spleen and stomach disorders, internal disharmony, vomiting and diarrhea?

"This is just an enhanced laxative. Why would you give this to a concubine?"

While Shen Yao was communicating with the system in her mind, she glanced around.

Not to mention, wherever I looked, there was something wrong, except for the table of the princes not far away.

Is this considered large-scale AOE damage? Who did this? How dare they do it at such an important Mid-Autumn Festival banquet? Aren't they afraid that the emperor will get angry and take advantage of the situation?

The system's answer was always dry and without any fluctuations, "The system is just a system, it doesn't know the inside story."

Shen Yao pretended to sigh in her heart, 'Hey, tell me, the mission is almost completed, and you are still confused. What should I say? We are partners. Can you really bear to watch me face the dangers of the harem alone?

You know, if I fail, our mission will be over.

You won't get 100% of the energy you want.'

After the system heard this, it was silent for a while and then it replied, "It was the Imperial Kitchen who did this."

I'm not sure who arranged it, but there must be traces left in the imperial kitchen.'

Because these meals, including tea cups and ornaments, all came from the imperial kitchen.

Don’t think that the imperial kitchen is just a place for cooking. In fact, all things and utensils related to food can be found in the imperial kitchen.

Shen Yao did not continue to answer the system. She lowered her head slightly and picked up the teacup beside her and took the opportunity to play with it.

Of course, since she already knew that there was some medicinal powder on it, Shen Yao would definitely not touch it, even if she had a cheat.

"Let's wait and see. After this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, who knows if the situation in the harem will continue to change."

The atmosphere between the emperor and the queen is very strange now. Shen Yao can't explain why, but based on her years of intuition, she can guarantee that there is a problem here.

Problems don't just disappear over time; instead, they explode when they have accumulated enough.

As for who will be injured by the explosion, that is not Shen Yao's concern.

Eat spectators, watch the show, and focus on yourself, this is Shen Yao's life motto.

blah-

The teacup in her hand instantly fell out of her hand, turned several times, fell to the ground, and broke into several pieces.

The palace servants standing nearby hurried forward, and in a blink of an eye, a new teacup was placed in front of Shen Yao.

The colors look the same, but the painting on them is different.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows and smiled, then leisurely poured herself a cup of tea and drank it.

Yes, the new teacups are clean and have no problems.

It seems that the action was not fully prepared, and I'm afraid it was intentionally aimed at certain people.

A little later, the Emperor and the Empress came hand in hand.

As Wei Zhu was chanting, everyone stood up from their seats and greeted the two bright yellow figures that came in.

"No need to be polite, please take a seat."

Shen Yao sat in her seat with her head lowered and her eyes slightly raised to meet Xiao Yanchen's gaze.

The moment their eyes met, they were both a little stunned.

Especially Shen Yao, who never thought that she would run into the emperor just by following the crowd.

Shen Yao smiled, but out of consideration for the other people around her, her smile was rather reserved.

However, Xiao Yanchen, who was sitting at the top, was very amused by Shen Yao's little actions.

When he looked away, he couldn't suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth.

This made Wei Jingyi, who was always paying attention to Xiao Yanchen's situation, a little unhappy.

At the same time, Wei Jingyi was also a little angry and sad. It seemed that the emperor really liked Concubine Xi.

She and the emperor have been married for many years, but the emperor has never been so kind to her.

Ah!

Wei Jingyi lowered her head and frowned, at the same time concealing her emotions.

It was useless to say all these now. The relationship between her and the emperor had come to an end. After she made up her mind and chose to preserve the Wei family, she knew what she should do in order to leave the greatest possible bargaining chips for Xiao Heng.

call

Your Majesty, I hope that everything I do today can allow this man to save Heng'er's life.

She couldn't bear to leave her family and was worried about her son, but since ancient times, it has been difficult to be both loyal and filial, so she could only choose one, and she had to let Heng'er down.
