Speaking of this, looking at the beauty of my niece, even as a woman, I couldn't help but feel moved at the sight. Even compared to her mother back then, her appearance was slightly better. Although she is not as good as herself, she still has a mature and charming figure. I remembered my sister who had become a mother at the beginning of the year. She was 70% similar in stature and 60% similar in appearance to Situ Huanshuang.
While lamenting Situ Huanshuang's beautiful appearance, there was a hint of worry in Cai's tone: "He is the crown prince of the Qi Dynasty. Judging from the emperor's trust in him now, he may be able to ascend the throne in less than two years." He is the emperor. You are his head wife and the future queen of the Great Qi Dynasty. The children you give birth to in the future will be his legitimate sons. This is particularly important in the Tian family."
"We can even help him to suppress the possible heirlooms in the future and prevent him from repeating the situation of sons killing each other. I see that he loves children so much. Whether it is Mrs. He's child or that child The children born to Mrs. Duan are regarded as treasures by both men and women. If his sons also follow the same path as the sons of Queen Daxing, he will be very distressed.
"Shuang'er, the child you gave birth to will be more than just a prince in the future. He will have to bear a lot of expectations in the future. Now he already has two daughters, and now I, Li family, and Tang family also have children. Pregnant. There are so many women in his harem, who knows how many sons he will have in the future? If the current trend continues, he can only have more sons than he has now."
"The current emperor seems to have more than thirty concubines, but in fact not many of them actually have children. Only a dozen or so survive. Even so, they still fight like a black-eyed chicken. He Still young, coupled with that romantic and somewhat nasty temper, the future son may be far better than his father. The battles in the Tian family are always bloody and cruel.
"For that position, there are too many princes who will do whatever it takes. Family ties are not worth mentioning in their eyes. Even their own parents can be used as their pawns, not to mention their brothers and sisters. But as someone who has experienced family destruction and experienced unforgettable pain, I have no intention of letting my children compete for that position."
"As a mother, I just hope that he can live a peaceful life. Even if it is two meals a day, it is just enough to satisfy his hunger. I even hope that the child in his belly is a daughter. Among the others, the He family is my You see, she is also an honest person. Although she gave birth to that man’s eldest son, she is not capable of raising a son who would do anything at all."
"As for Duan Jin, although I don't know her true origin. But she seems to be a little self-possessed and aloof, and her behavior is quite grand, even giving people a sense of nobility. I'm afraid she doesn't come from an ordinary family. She doesn't care. She won't do anything to fight for favor, let alone do anything to win favor. I believe that she will not educate the kind of person who does anything to do anything. "
"But what about the others? Who can guarantee that the other women around him will not have troubles after having children and have ambitions to seize the legitimate children in the future? Who can guarantee that their children will not be involved in the battle for the legitimate children in the future? In the first half of the palace, the mother is more valuable than the son, and in the second half of the life, the mother is more valuable than the son. Even the women around him now are all peaceful people who do not fight or fight, so they can be new to the palace."
"Don't you know about his temper? He likes you, but he can't change his playboy temper. When you see someone you like, you don't care whether he has a husband or not. Anyway, you have to try your best to get it. Even if you can't get in, The palace must also be raised outside. In the future, there will be no sure how many people there will be in the harem. When there are more people, there will be more right and wrong, and there will definitely be some preference for one and partiality for another."
"I'm afraid that even if he wants to make a bowl of water equal, he can't do it. Just like when I was in Xijing, Mrs. Li and I were pregnant at the same time. But he cared more about me and less about Mr. Li. The two of us When she was pregnant, she would come to me whenever she had nothing to do, and would rest there from time to time. But after Li became pregnant, although he made very thoughtful arrangements, he rarely went and never rested."
"He treats his wife like this, but he treats his children like a bowl of water? Who can guarantee that his children are all peaceful? Our ten fingers are not even equal. What's more, that Is he still a living person? Still a descendant of the Tian family. No matter how skillful and resolute he is in handling government affairs, his own sword cannot cut his own handle."
"I have no intention of instigating your relationship, but people's hearts are divided. The emperors in the past dynasties have more sons, the more important this legitimate son is. So Shuang'er, whether you want this child or not, no matter what the current Tian family needs, you are not needed. Spread the branches and leaves. You have to live. This is the responsibility you must fulfill as the concubine. Sometimes a legitimate son can play a role far beyond what we can imagine. "
Although Ms. Cai has a gentle temperament, she was born in a family of officials and married into a family of officials. She has a much longer-term vision than ordinary women and sees problems much more thoroughly. Within a few days after returning to Jingzhao, Huang Qiong almost got to know all the women in Beijing. Moreover, she gets along well with the three girls He Yao, Duan Jin, and Lin Hanyan, perhaps because they are roughly similar in age.
Therefore, she still trusts the character of the three girls, and believes that they cannot raise such arrogant and unscrupulous children. Especially Duan Jin, although Mrs. Duan usually doesn't care about anything. Even when she treats her own children, she is not as enthusiastic as other mothers. Compared with He Yao, it is really far behind. But Duan Jin gave her the impression that he was of noble origin and was a generous person.
In her opinion, the son brought out by Duan Jin's temperament will also be outstanding in the future. He Yao, on the other hand, has a somewhat soft temper. Although she is not considered pampered when it comes to her children, she is sometimes too reluctant to let go. As the eldest son, her son may not be as outstanding as Duan Jin's son in the future. As for the others, she is actually most worried about Tang Qianhong now. Tang Qianhong was a good person, but she had too many small calculations.
And compared to Mrs. Duan, her eyelids are not that light. When he was in Xijing, relying on Huang Qiong's favor, although he didn't do anything extraordinary, some things he did were not very authentic. In Cai's view, she would do anything to please that man. Everyone has chosen someone else, or decided to go home. The night before leaving the palace, she sent someone to the man.
In Cai's view, people like Dong Qianhong who have too many petty thoughts may not be able to make a big impact, but their ability to disrupt the situation at critical moments is not ordinary. What worries Ms. Cai even more is that if she gives birth to a son, her temperament, which is not too peaceful, will easily give birth to some thoughts that she shouldn't have. Although it seems now that she behaves very calmly, she has always been calm after arriving in Jingzhao.
But if she gives birth to a son, will she really be as stable in the future as she is now? Although she also knew that Dong Qianhong did this largely because of her background. Both the adoptive father and the former father-in-law were convicted, one was exiled, and the other, together with his ex-husband, was sacrificed in front of the army. She is a family member of a criminal official, and according to the imperial court's regulations, the family members of a criminal official can only enter the Yeting Bureau as slaves when they enter the palace.
Even if she is favored by the emperor by chance, it will be difficult for her to be promoted to a concubine. She used unscrupulous means just because she was worried because she was a little old. He is also a member of a criminal official, and once his love fades away in the near future. If she loses that master's favor again, she will not be able to gain a foothold in the harem. So she kept brushing up on her presence in front of that man to prove her worth around Huang Qiong.
She also comes from a wealthy family, and she understands very well the consequences of a woman serving in Israel losing her favor. It's understandable, but Cai doesn't agree with her actions. In her opinion, there are many ways to please that man, and there is no need to base this kind of flattery on other people's pain. Thinking of what Dong Qianhong did in Xijing, Cai couldn't help but feel speechless.
Therefore, what Cai is most worried about among the women in Huang Qiong's harem now is Dong Qianhong. Most of the others are honest and honest people. It's more because of his background that he acts a little cautiously. And except for the Wu sisters, the rest of the girls are always headed by He Yao. And because He Yao is neither arrogant nor indulgent, the character he brings out is not too bad.
Ms. Cai believes that as long as their future children do not go astray, at least they will not be able to teach such arrogant sons. In her opinion, Dong Qianhong is a little too eager for quick success and quick gain. And her temperament can easily affect her future children. Once a child's personality is developed, it is difficult to change it. Once a person's mind becomes too active, it will easily lead to other thoughts.
Who can guarantee that no woman brought in from now on will have a similar personality to Dong Qianhong? If some women with strong family backgrounds are brought in to meet the needs of certain current situations, even if it is for their natal family in the future, their thoughts may not be simple. Even if their children may not want to fight, will their mothers who are unwilling to live in peace choose to give up?
As for the young women in Lin Wanqing, Cai didn't think much about them because she didn't know them well. Even Lin Wanqing, who was extremely beautiful, had not considered whether Situ Huanshuang's position as the principal concubine would be shaken. At this point, she still believed in Huang Qiong's character. Although that man is a little more carefree and is the kind of person who is romantic but occasionally nasty, he still has a sense of responsibility.
However, Ms. Cai hesitated for a moment and ultimately did not tell Situ Huanshuang that Zhang Qiaoer also had a son or daughter in her belly, and she obviously did not intend for the child to recognize his ancestor. There is also Huang Qiong outside, and another woman also gave birth to a son for him. It's just that people have been avoiding him, and Cai didn't tell him clearly that he hadn't been caught yet.
Although he didn't know who the woman was, she had obviously been trying to avoid him, which made him very irritated and he came to Cai to complain. Therefore, Cai is the only one among the women in Xijing who knows about that woman. Although Ms. Cai also felt sorry for that child, Pei Pei had to wander around with her mother. I felt even more sorry for that woman, who had to hide from people even when she gave birth.
But his mother would rather wander outside and hide around than come back to him. Although I don't know what happened to these two people, as an outsider, Cai has no choice but to feel distressed. As for Qingzi Erluo, who was the most favored among the girls in Xijing at the beginning, Cai defined them as honest people and somewhat chivalrous spirit.
Ms. Cai is not worried about these women. What she is most worried about is the sons these women will give birth to in the future. The nine sons of Longsheng each have their own interests, let alone the son of the emperor? There are men in this world who don't know how to cheat or take concubines, and Cai believes it. After all, Zheng Daoyuan, who made Huang Qiong so angry when he was in Xijing, had already taken practical actions. But there probably won’t be any princes who don’t care about the throne.
