Hearing this, Liu Piao's face became even more ugly. As for whether her daughter could have children, she regarded the issue of whether her daughter could have children as more important than whether her son had the ability to have children, because she knew very well that in addition to her own blood, her rights also came from her own blood. What matters is the relationship between the emperor and her.
The emperor has a good relationship with her, and she has great power.
Only then will others rely on her and please her.
If she is a princess who cannot speak in court or even in front of the emperor, who will pay attention to her?
Who would want to marry her to take advantage of her?
She tried her best to promote the marriage between her daughter and Liu Che, not for her daughter's happiness. To put it bluntly, she did it for herself, and even her family's current and future power and status.
Just as the original person felt that there was a difference between his son becoming emperor and his grandson becoming emperor, Liu Piao also felt that there was a big difference between his brother becoming emperor and his nephew becoming emperor.
For example, the relationship is obviously distant.
If it were passed down one or two generations.
The blood connection with each other will undoubtedly become more distant.
Therefore, during the reign of Emperor Jing, in order to deepen the close relationship between her family and the next emperor, she resolutely chose to support Liu Che, who married her daughter, as the crown prince.
In her original vision, after her daughter became the queen, she would have a son as the prince, which would keep their family's status unshakable for at least thirty to fifty years. After that, they could continue similar operations, permanently bind, and share the imperial power.
But now, everything is disrupted by her daughter's childlessness.
How could she be willing to do so?
How can we accept this reality calmly?
"No, there must be a way. Those doctors are too incompetent. I can go to the witch doctor or even the witch doctor. They must have a way. Queen Mother..."
Liu Piao naturally continued to struggle in response.
And these operations are actually not outrageous.
It can even be considered an ordinary thing.
Because the Emperor Gaozu of this dynasty was originally from Chu, and the Chu people were fond of witchcraft and had a long history of worshiping ghosts and gods, the royal family of this dynasty still believed in witchcraft culture. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a temple was set up in Chang'an to celebrate officials and witches.
Specially responsible for state and dynasty sacrifices.
Including Liang Wu, Jin Wu, Qin Wu, Jing Wu...
Offer sacrifices to heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, the Five Emperors Dongjun, Yunzhong Siming and other natural gods, ancestors and sages respectively.
And at this time, the witch doctors have not completely separated.
Zhu Youshu can be regarded as a standard treatment method.
Therefore, when dealing with problems that cannot be solved by imperial doctors, it is normal to seek witch doctors and witch blessings. At the same time, it is precisely because they believe in witch culture that they are particularly afraid and disgusted with witchcraft and curses. Magic is normal, but it can only be used for divination and blessing or to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases. Cursing is a serious sin.
So it was normal for Chen Ajiao to engage in witchcraft later on.
After all, they really believe in this stuff.
"If they had their way, your brother and your father wouldn't have left so early. The people who prayed for them were all witches who presided over the national ceremony. The Ai family is now a little suspicious. How much have you and Gillian been deceived? money?"
Bai Sheng was really heartbroken. It would be great to keep the defrauded money for her to invest and develop productivity.
Give a liar a son.
The proper thing is to throw the money into the water and it will float away.
When talking about how much money she spent, Liu Piao could not help but show a hint of distress on her face, because she had really spent a lot of money over the years, but she felt that as long as she could give birth to a grandson of the emperor, no matter how much money she spent, it would be worth it. .
And she has already invested so much money in the early stage.
If you simply declare failure and give up.
The sunk cost is too high.
If you persist, you can still see some hope, but if you just give up, the money you invested will be wasted.
Just like those who have been deceived, they have already guessed that it may be a scam, but they are still willing to be deceived, because as long as the other party does not run away for a day, they can always use this to comfort themselves. Maybe it is true.
Maybe keep transferring money, keep investing.
You can get your capital back or get your money back!
Liu's persistence at this time is actually the same as being stuck in investing in the stock market. The initial investment was too great. He spent more than ten years putting all his money into his daughter and Liu Che. There is no chance to switch investments now. Okay, what if you don’t stick to it?
"It's less than ten million dollars."
Although he felt distressed, Liu Piao still told the truth.
Then Bai Sheng also felt a little distressed. This prodigal thing, the love legend is true, it really cost 90 million yuan: "The Aijia originally thought that it was a rumor that Gillian spent 90 million yuan to beg for a son, but it turned out to be real!"
"Ah? Queen Mother, no...
I mean, I spent nearly 10 million. I don’t know how much Gillian spent, but she spent all the money from the Shaofu. It shouldn’t be that much. Maybe it’s more than that. I don’t know the specifics. clear. "
Good guy, this makes people feel even more distressed. The 90 million yuan in the relationship rumors is still too small. It is very likely that they did not spend 90 million yuan in total, but spent 90 million yuan separately. Even if you don't consider it, Money at this time is actually more valuable. Calculated based on the price of gold alone, it would be equivalent to spending more than 2 billion a few thousand years later.
Bai Sheng really wanted to pinch Renzhong for himself.
This mother and daughter are so easy to deceive and so spendthrift.
I think I'm almost going crazy trying to get a son.
"You'd better save some money if you have it. The Ai family has something to do next that requires you to participate. You should prepare more money. If you can't come up with the money to invest later, don't blame the Ai family for not taking care of you.
Also, what Aijia said to Gillian is not groundless. You can send people to investigate among the people yourself. There must be examples of two people who have been childless after marriage and then had children soon after they separated. Go and do some research. If cousins get married, what is the survival rate of their children? What is the deformity rate? What about the premature death rate?
If you are doing Gillian's best, don't mess with her body anymore, don't take medicine, or ask gods for divination.
This is all I have to say about my family.
From now on, you, mother and daughter, should not ask me for a son, and the Ai family will stop trying to persuade you, otherwise you won’t want to hear it.
Any thing else? If it's okay, just go back. "
Bai Sheng actually knew very well that her words would most likely be of no use. Even if her daughter really went back to investigate and got the results, she probably wouldn't give up.
But if she wanted to persuade, she still had to say it again.
At least it's benevolent and righteous.
If anything happens in the future, she won't feel guilty.
"No!" Liu Piao was obviously a little distracted at this time. He probably didn't hear what Bai Sheng said clearly at all. He just responded habitually and then realized:
"Mother, why do you need to prepare more money?"
"The Ai family is planning to invite all their relatives to come together to fund a chamber of commerce to improve their skills and do business. The shares will be calculated based on the proportion of investment. The details are still being planned.
Just telling you in advance.
We will wait for the Ai family to make plans in more detail. "
Ten million dollars is not a small amount, it accounts for several percent of the national treasury revenue, so Bai Sheng naturally felt that his daughter might not have much cash in hand and needed some time to prepare, so he specifically told her in advance.
It would also give her some preparation time when she goes back.
