Chapter 307 Shaking Mushrooms on the Wall (Part 4)
"Your Majesty, what if—and I mean what if—a husband has only one wife and no concubines?"
Qingmo gave her a cool look. "Ruyi, are there not enough mushrooms in the palace for you to shake lately?"
Huh? This…
Da Ru quickly shook his head: "Your Majesty, that's enough, that's enough. Didn't I return the ham and mushroom stew to you yesterday?"
"Then what nonsense are you spouting? You only have one wife, so what are you?"
Da Ru panicked and quickly tried to cover it up: "I was just thinking, what if one day, all the men in the world only have wives and no concubines, or if the affection between husband and wife has faded, women can also leave, and everyone can be a single-minded person, wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Qingmo shouted sharply, "How dare you, Consort Xian! My wife is the Empress, and you are my concubine. A concubine is a concubine, and you can never become my wife."
"You still want to leave? I bet you're already thinking about cheating on me, aren't you?"
Da Ru was so frightened that she knelt down with a thud. "Your Majesty, I misspoke. I shouldn't have mentioned such an absurd thing."
Qingmo snorted coldly, "Hmph, I am the emperor of a dynasty. It is normal for me to have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines. If you wanted to find a single-hearted person, why did you marry me and become my concubine in the first place?"
Da Ru lowered her head, bit her lip, and mustered her courage to say, "Your Majesty, but this will lead to constant infighting in the harem. The sisters are scheming against each other to win favor, and it makes me feel terrible to see it."
Qingmo frowned and waved her hand impatiently. "What kind of behavior is this! Lock him up in the Imperial Prison and let him reflect on his actions!"
"Your Majesty, if you insist on doing this, then I have nothing more to say."
Daru has given up again.
I comforted myself, "It's okay, it's okay. Even if His Majesty mistreats me a thousand times, I will still love him as much as I love my first love."
Upon arriving at the Shenxing Division, Da Ru was thrown into a dark and damp prison cell.
She rubbed her aching wrists, looked around, and found the place eerie and terrifying, which made her feel a little scared.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps outside the cell, and a familiar voice rang out: "Sister Xianfei, you have suffered."
Upon closer inspection, Da Ru realized that the person who had come was Hai Lan.
She looked at Hailan with feigned indifference and said, "Hailan, what are you doing here? I'm fine, you can go back."
Seeing her beloved sister suffer was even more painful for Hailan than for herself, and she cried with tears and snot all over her face.
"Sister, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you."
Da Ru wondered, Hai Lan had a low rank in the palace and was ostracized everywhere. If it weren't for his protection, she would probably be dead by now. What could she do?
However, she just smiled and didn't ask any further questions.
Little did they know, Hailan had already made up her mind to seduce her beloved sister's young man.
She needed to win the emperor's favor so that she could protect her sister and avoid being unable to help her sister in the way she was in now.
Hailan returned to her palace and began to dress up carefully.
She put on her most beautiful clothes and applied exquisite makeup before heading to the Imperial Garden to wait for the Emperor.
Sure enough, the Emperor arrived shortly afterward.
Hailan deliberately pretended to bump into Qingmo by accident, then gracefully bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, it was my carelessness."
Qingmo was somewhat displeased: "Knowing that you were careless, you still acted so recklessly. Guards, drag him away and slap him."
Hailan raised her head, looking at Qingmo with teary eyes.
Unfortunately, her flirtatious glances were wasted on a blind man; Qingmo didn't even bother to look at her, muttered a curse under her breath, and strode away.
Hailan was slapped thirty times, her face swollen, before she was released.
"Your Majesty, which concubine would you like to choose tonight?"
Here it comes, here it comes, this problem has finally arrived.
If I were to favor them, I'd feel a bit restrained; if I weren't, they're all young girls, and it wouldn't be right to leave them widowed so early.
Garfield the cat hasn't even given birth to Emperor Qianlong's first son yet, and it's already going to die in the womb?
Sin ah.
Is she trying to cut off the Aisin Gioro clan's lineage? Although there are already three princes, none of them are of any use.
After Emperor Qianlong came Emperor Jiaqing. Should he have a child or not?
That doesn't seem right either. Does the Jiaqing Emperor have to be someone's son? Whoever is in that position is the Jiaqing Emperor.
Qingmo glanced at the sign and casually said, "It's... Jiafei Cat, no, Jia Nobleman."
The eunuch serving nearby responded and hurried to make the arrangements.
"Jue Er, what should I do if I don't want to favor my concubines?"
Huh? Jue Er looked up, his face full of confusion.
"Your Majesty, I cannot bestow your favor, for I am a eunuch."
Qingmo immediately kicked him, "Do you think I don't know whether you're a eunuch or not?"
Jue Er felt wronged, and when he did, he would say, "Master, I'm not a eunuch, so I can't have children. I don't have that function. I'm a puppet."
Uh! To be honest, what he said actually makes some sense. Qingmo glanced at him guiltily, then turned her face away again.
She couldn't just find anyone to replace her and confuse the Aisin Gioro bloodline, after all, her family had a real throne to inherit.
You have to worry about what you're in. She can just shrug it off and not care about anything, but we still have some conscience, even if it's not much.
She quickly came up with an idea.
Jue Er: Hmm? Why is Master staring at me again? It's making me feel uneasy.
"Jue Er, from now on you will serve me in bed. Although you cannot have children, you can conceive through artificial insemination."
Very good! She's so smart!
She was willing, but absolutely not.
No, no, he's still a virgin, how could he do such a thing? He'd be defiled. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated.
(°-°〃)
Jue Er: "Master, I still have to serve you by your side. Who can serve you as attentively as your servant?"
"I think we should let Jueyi handle this matter. He'll definitely be able to do it perfectly."
Qingmo gave him a half-smile, but still nodded in agreement. It didn't matter who it was, as it wasn't her anyway.
Jueyi: Is there no one to speak up for me?
You're afraid of getting dirty, but you're not afraid of me getting dirty?
Little brother, you're really not human. Even though we're not human, you're definitely a dog.
And so, Jueyi transformed into Qingmo and took her place in favoring the concubines.
As for the sperm, just pull it out of the body. This is such a small matter, how could it be difficult for us cultivators?
We've really gone to great lengths to keep the story going.
If we follow Qingmo's approach and kill all these scheming women, what kind of grand drama will we have in the harem?
It's true that a harem without conflict isn't a true harem.
Jueyi approached each concubine's nightly service with the attitude of completing a task, making sure to meet the master's requirements.
To ensure that every concubine is satisfied and feels at home.
What is he? He's just a tool, a beast of burden.
After all, once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. The girls already suffer enough. Not only do they have to share a husband with so many people, but they might not even get to serve the emperor a few times a month.
In the prime of their lives, it would be a terrible thing for her not to let them eat well.
Jue Yi cried, but he didn't say anything. He was different from Jue Er; he resolutely carried out every task assigned by his master.
I can't say anymore, it's all tears. Luckily, he's resilient, especially at this age when he's so energetic.
