From eunuch to emperor

In the imperial study.

The empress held Emperor Luoxi in her arms and asked, "Tell me, what is it that you came to see the empress?"

Di Luoxi smiled and said: "Queen, my son's withered wood pill has been refined, but I don't think it can be given to Long Chengen so easily."

The Empress asked, "Then what do you say?"

Di Luoxi thought it over on the way, and said: "My son will give this withered wood pill to my mother, and my mother will give it to him, and then ask him to be married as a matchmaker, according to our royal etiquette."

The empress thought for a while and said, "But Long Chengen is alone, why is he getting married?"

"My Princess Da Zhou has never married. There was no such precedent before."

The Eastern Zhou Dynasty has always been ruled by female emperors. Female emperors do not marry, but they can bear children, and they are passed on from generation to generation.

Only in the generation of the Empress did she have four daughters.

This incident caused an uproar at the time.

The Empress broke the tradition of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Di Luoxi said coquettishly: "Mother, it's enough for the elder sister to inherit the throne. I'm the youngest, I don't want the throne, I only want Long Cheng'en."

The empress smiled and said: "Okay, Long Chengen abducted my daughter away, and he didn't even look down on the throne."

Di Luoxi chuckled and said, "Being the emperor is too troublesome, let the eldest sister go, and Xiaolonglong and I can help the eldest sister fight and defend the country."

Seeing Di Luoxi's innocent appearance, the Empress suddenly fell into deep thought...

"Mother, are you angry?"

Seeing that the Empress suddenly stopped talking, Di Luoxi thought that the Empress was angry.

The empress smiled and said: "The world has changed, I'm afraid there will be no peace..."

"The future of Dazhou needs to be guarded by Long Chengen."

Di Luoxi said very firmly: "He will definitely defend Eastern Zhou!"

The empress hugged Emperor Luoxi and said, "Okay, I promise you, give the medicine to the empress."

Di Luoxi took out the medicine bottle from her arms and carefully handed it to the empress.

The Empress took the medicine bottle and put it aside.

Di Luoxi got up from the empress's arms and said, "Queen, the servants there have gone back, and everything is subject to the arrangements of the queen."

The Empress smiled and said, "Okay, let's go."

Di Luoxi happily exited the imperial study and brought Qingyue and Xuanyi back to the palace.

Yingfeng and Di Wan'er entered the imperial study room, where the empress was playing with the medicine bottle.

"What do you think?"

The Empress asked lightly.

Yingfeng and Di Wan'er looked at each other, neither of them dared to speak nonsense.

The empress looked up at the two of them, and Yingfeng said: "I don't dare to speak rashly, but King Wu regains his male body, and the fourth princess gets married, so King Wu will be the son-in-law, which is beneficial to the country."

Di Wan'er said: "King Wu is alone in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If he becomes a son-in-law, he will be a relative of the Holy Majesty, and this humble minister also thinks it will be beneficial to the country."

Both Yingfeng and Di Wan'er like Long Chen, their relationship is ambiguous, they certainly hope that Long Chen will turn back into a man.

The empress nodded slightly, and said: "It makes sense, if you become my son-in-law, you will naturally belong to me."

"Spread the news, just say that the withered wood pill is in my hands, and I will give the withered wood pill to Long Chengen."

Yingfeng and Di Wan'er went to do it immediately.

Holding the medicine bottle, the Empress smiled and said, "Now I'm a mother-in-law..."

The Empress and Long Chen had flirted with each other, took a bath together, and played other tricks.

However, these things don't matter.

For ordinary people, this is an embarrassing thing.

But for the imperial family, morality and law are false, and nothing can bind them.

Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng to marry his sister-in-law, Li Zhi made Wu Zetian the queen, and Li Longji could snatch his daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan to be a noble concubine.

Those who stand at the pinnacle of power can do whatever they want, and the ministers not only dare not criticize, but also take the initiative to find excuses for them.

For example, it is morally corrupt for ordinary people to find mistresses, and it is revolutionary romanticism for the founding fathers to abandon their wives and sons in exchange for wives.

The empress put the medicine bottle in the cabinet casually, and said indifferently: "Mother-in-law and son-in-law..."

...

Wu Wangfu.

The five of Zhang Qian meditated and practiced in the other courtyard, while Long Chen watched from the side.

The last time I was practicing in the study, Su Yourong broke in suddenly, almost driving everyone into a trance.

Having learned this lesson, Long Chen took out the place where he practiced.

Seeing everyone settled down, Long Chen slowly left the other courtyard.

In the next room, Feng He had already arrived.

"grown ups."

Long Chen sat down and asked: "How is Xixia's investigation?"

Long Chen asked Feng He to carefully investigate the scandal in Zhaoti Temple, to see if Zhaoti Temple had done some shady things behind the scenes.

Especially the empty monk.

Feng He said with a smile: "My lord, as you expected, the act of recruiting the temple to ask for a child is not clean."

Long Chen asked: "Tell me carefully."

Feng Heyi looked like a village aunt talking right and wrong, and said happily: "My lord is indeed a veteran in the field of love, and he can guess this kind of thing very accurately."

Long Chen frowned, and said: "Are you praising me, or are you hurting me?"

Feng He laughed and said: "Of course it is an exaggeration, such things can be guessed."

Long Chen was speechless...

Feng He continued to say with relish: "The beggars of Zhaoti Temple make their wishes in a separate courtyard, where there is a separate room, and there is a hidden compartment under the room."

"Women seeking children sleep in their rooms, and monks come out to hook up with them at night, and they become pregnant."

"The husbands of those people don't know that their daughter-in-law is pregnant with wild seeds, and after giving birth to wild seeds, they have to offer gifts to Zhaoti Temple."

"There are also some women who went to Zhaoti Temple every now and then for the reason of fulfilling their vows. Hey, hey, they are really coquettish girls."

Looking at Feng He's appearance, Long Chen couldn't help but said: "I think you can sit at the head of the village and chat with the seven aunts and the eight aunts."

Feng He didn't understand what Long Chen meant, and said: "My lord, Zhaoti Temple has been in the business of seeking children for decades. I roughly estimate that the number of wild seeds broadcast by Zhaoti Temple is no less than 30."

hiss...

This number frightened Long Chen.

"Your estimate is a bit scary."

But Feng He said: "My lord, let me do the math for you. There are [-] monks in Zhaoti Temple, and half of them are young."

"There are about two or three hundred female believers who go to Zhaoti Temple to seek children every day, and about one hundred thousand a year."

"Zhaoti Temple has been in the child-seeking business for decades. I estimate 30. This figure is already very conservative."

According to Feng He's calculation, the seeds scattered by Zhaoti Temple were of a terrifying magnitude.

Long Chen thought something was wrong, and said: "Is there so much infertility in Xixia? It's puzzling."

It stands to reason that there are people who can't conceive in every place, but it is impossible for so many.

The number of Xixia is too nonsense, it is simply incomprehensible.

Feng He also found it strange, and said: "Zhaoti Temple has a special status in Xixia. Shi Le has always encouraged believers to go to Zhaoti Temple to pray for children, saying that the heirs from Zhaoti Temple will be very healthy."

Long Chen sneered and said: "Nonsense, a group of young and strong monks, such a child must be born well."

Suddenly, Long Chen felt something was wrong...

"You just said that Shi Le encourages believers to go to Zhaoti Temple to ask for a child, regardless of whether they can't conceive or not?"
