"what?"The dancer, still immersed in the beautiful fantasy of being favored, was stunned. It was not until she was dragged away that she reacted and begged for mercy.
Some people thought it was a pity, such a beautiful woman, it would be great if they could take her home... But when they saw the gloomy look in the emperor's eyes, they immediately shut up.
Seeing Jiang Xianyun was stunned.
Zhao Junrui thought he had scared her, so he reached out and held her hand. "Don't be afraid."
She's scared shitless.
The dancer showed malice towards the child in her belly, and the emperor saw it. If she didn't die, no one would die.
Jiang Xianyun smiled slightly.
"fine."
"It's a pity, the waist is twisted really well."
Zhao Junrui: “…”
Jiang Xianyun raised his hand to signal.
"Then play music, then dance."
The one who enjoys life better than him should be his.
Zhao Junrui said calmly.
"Switch to the next one."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The performances continued one after another.
Among them, there were many young ladies and sons from ministers' homes who came to perform.
This year, the emperor might have wanted Jiang Xianyun to be happy, so he invited a troupe of opera performers from the capital. In short, the whole banquet was very lively.
After three rounds of drinking.
During this period, one of the ministers got drunk.
I couldn't help but stand up and say a few words.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
Zhao Junrui glanced over.
"Oh, what does Lord Zhang want to say?" What is this old man trying to do?
The minister who stood up spoke. "Your Majesty favors Concubine Rong, and the concubines in the harem have become decorations. Now Your Majesty has few children. Only Concubine Rong is pregnant. If this continues, it may be detrimental to the country and the people's peace of mind. I ask Your Majesty to consider the people of the world and invite concubines to sleep with you to give birth to children for the royal family."
As soon as Lord Zhang finished speaking, two other drunk people stood up. They were Lord Li and Lord Xu.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Throughout the dynasties, there has never been a situation where only one person is favored. Please think twice."
After one person finished speaking, the other looked at Jiang Xianyun with a serious expression.
"As a concubine in the harem, I should set an example and advise His Majesty to be fair and just, and expand the royal family."
Jiang Xianyun glanced at the emperor's gloomy face and sighed in his heart.
Why can't these people learn from their mistakes? They know that tyrants have bad tempers. Isn't it better to have a good meal and celebrate the New Year?
"Ah……"
Zhao Junrui put the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table, and heard a heavy sound. This sound instantly made those who were drunk shudder and sober up.
The emperor glanced at the crowd and said, "When I had no children, you asked me to adopt you. You talked so much about it that people who didn't know would think that I was going to lose my country in the next moment. Now that I have children, you think it's not enough, and now you are even bringing up the issue of the country and the people.
I think you guys have nothing to do now that you are full. If you have nothing to do, you should learn more about the people's sentiments and do more practical things instead of talking nonsense here."
The emperor was angry.
Everyone present stood up and knelt.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
They were also a little scared.
This is a tyrant who drags people down if they disagree with something.
Zhao Junrui sneered.
"Alright, I don't want to see blood on New Year's Day. After the banquet, go back and reflect on your actions. Talk less and do more. I know exactly what each of you did and how much you did."
As for people who do things, he would not look at their age, and would promote them if they deserved to be promoted. He would demote those who just wanted to get by, even if they were third-rank officials.
As an emperor, I will never keep useless people.
After the banquet, fireworks exploded over the entire imperial capital.
Zhao Junrui and Jiang Xianyun stood hand in hand on the city wall, watching the fireworks all over the city.
She took his hand.
"Happy New Year, Your Majesty."
Zhao Junrui was stunned and reached out to hold the person in his arms.
"Have fun together with Yun'er."
"It's New Year's Day, so smile."
"I am laughing."
Jiang Xianyun looked at his deadly face and rolled his eyes.
"Did not see it."
The corners of Zhao Junrui's lips rose slightly.
Jiang Xianyun hugged his waist. "I see."
He stroked her big belly with his hand, and he could feel the baby moving inside through her clothes.
"He's quite active, which means he's very healthy." When he said this, he felt a little worried again.
"What's wrong? Why are your brows furrowed?"
"Just a little worried."
"what?"
"I hope he doesn't inherit my strange power." Sometimes, being powerful is not a good thing. He hopes his child will be born normal.
Knowing that he was worried, Jiang Xianyun held his fingers.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Zhao Junrui: “I hope so.”
He put his arms around her body.
The two continued to watch the New Year's fireworks.
"Originally, I wanted to make you a noble concubine first, but it's inconvenient for you to do so now that you're pregnant, and the canonization ceremony is very complicated. When you give birth, I will directly make you queen and my only wife."
Jiang Xianyun was stunned.
Then laughed.
"it is good."
Zhao Junrui looked at her.
"Let's get practical."
Jiang Xianyun couldn't laugh or cry.
This is not a tyrant at all. In fact, he is quite easy to appease.
She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek.
"Okay."
He shook his head slightly.
"No, it should be like this."
He lowered his head to steady her lips, and gently lifted her chin with his fingers.
It is still very romantic to hug and kiss the handsome emperor under the fireworks.
The weather warms up after the New Year.
The earth is reviving, and another year of prosperity begins.
One day a few months later, when Jiang Xianyun was petting his cat, he heard a system prompt.
"Host, it has been detected that the child is full-term and about to be born. Please be prepared."
"Oh, I see."
It has been raining these days, and there was some light rain today.
If she is going to give birth, she must notify the father of the child first.
"Someone is coming."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the young eunuch standing next to her stepped forward immediately.
"What do you want, madam?"
"I may be about to give birth. Send someone to inform His Majesty."
Xia Mei, who was standing next to Jiang Xianyun, also reacted when she heard it.
"Someone, the queen is about to give birth."
"Hurry up and send someone to report to His Majesty, and the Empress Dowager of Shou'an Palace..."
Because they had prepared in advance, the people in Qingyu Palace did not panic when Jiang Xianyun was about to give birth. Under the arrangement of Xia Mei and the housekeeper, everything was in order. Whoever dared to do anything was arranged.
at the same time.
The emperor, who was handling government affairs in the front court, saw the eunuch Li Degui walking towards him in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, the eunuch from the Qingyu Palace just came to report that Concubine Rong is about to give birth."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Junrui paused holding the pen, and a little more ink appeared on the memorial.
"Has the imperial physician come? Where is the midwife?"
Put down the pen casually.
Zhao Junrui stood up and went to the palace where Jiang Xianyun was.
It's still raining outside.
On the other side, the Queen Mother also rushed over as soon as she learned that Jiang Xianyun was about to give birth.
In the warm room of Qingyu Palace.
This is the delivery room that was prepared in advance.
Jiang Xianyun's pregnancy started very quickly. When she was helped to the room by the nanny and palace maid, her amniotic water broke.
This was beyond her expectations.
