Yes, there are no big things in the original work, but there are still problems in the plot that she has adapted into a mess.
The little emperor wants to take a concubine, and the time to choose is the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
This day, also known as the Lantern Festival, is a day when young men and women can come out of their homes and go out to play in the streets.
And for the little emperor who is about to accept a concubine, this is an opportunity for his ministers.
"Everyone, you are really concerned about His Majesty's marriage." Lu Xianchen forced a smile.
The Empress Dowager Mingxi nodded: "Yes, almost everyone from the famous family has submitted a letter to send their daughter to the palace. I can't make arrangements at the moment, so I asked the Holy Doctor to help."
Lu Xianchen feels that what she has to do recently is becoming less and less like a "medical woman". She has to take care of the former harem and the concubines of the little emperor. No one else can be so versatile.
"My daughter doesn't know much about the affairs of the previous dynasty," Lu Xianchen declined, "It's just that the Queen Mother still needs to give the right word as to whether the girl from this family can enter or not."
"Actually, it's not that important. There are few girls here who are direct descendants of the family. It doesn't mean much if we really investigate it." The Queen Mother seemed to see Lu Xianchen's attitude. "It all depends on whether you can get in or not. It mainly depends on the individual." Regarding your character, Your Majesty is still young, so don’t let the vixen around you lead him to bad things.”
The Empress Dowager Mingxi looked at Lu Xianchen's face and pointed to one of them: "Xianchen can make his own decision, except for this one, Fu Miao."
Fu Miao, from this name, one could tell that he was from the Fu family. However, Fu Maoan was imprisoned when Fu Chengze was just born. However, Fu Miao was younger than Fu Chengze and must have been born later.
"Does this girl... have anything to do with Imperial Physician Fu?" Lu Xianchen asked.
"She should be considered Fu Chengze's clan sister," said the Empress Dowager Mingxi. "Although she has never met her, she has the same roots. With her by the emperor's side, Fu Chengze can be more loyal."
Lu Xianchen felt quite uncomfortable hearing this.
In real life, when she reads novels, she doesn't really like the themes of marriage first and love later or forced yandere. She always feels that it's Stockholm syndrome causing trouble, similar to "I'm trapped, falling in love with him can make me It makes me feel better, that’s why I fell in love with this person”, and I can’t think of some candy.
But no matter what the novel says, she really doesn't want to see this happening around her.
The love she prefers is a two-way choice. Even if this choice is made between two people due to various calculations, it must be based on the willingness of both parties, rather than "having to marry" or "having to love."
But ancient marriages were almost always based on interests, and no one cared whether the bride and groom were willing or not.
"To be recommended by the Queen Mother, this Miss Fu must be of good character." Lu Xianchen felt a little sour.
"Yes, I often look at that child. He has a good temper." Empress Dowager Mingxi said.
Lu Xianchen spoke slowly: "The Queen Mother can take care of the Fu family, so she must know Fu Chengze's thoughts."
The Queen Mother Mingxi raised her eyes and looked at Lu Xianchen.
Lu Xianchen was in a bad mood and spoke a little hastily: "The Queen Mother knows about Imperial Physician Fu, her desire to avenge her ancestors, and her plans to attack the little emperor. You are looking after the Fu family and want to explain to Fu Chengze, It’s actually quite easy.”
The Empress Dowager Mingxi flicked her wrist.
Lu Xianchen knew that the Queen Mother was the most reasonable, and was confident that the Queen Mother would not punish her, so he said directly: "You clearly have the opportunity to stop it, so why do you acquiesce to Fu Chengze's harm to His Majesty's health?"
There was silence all around, and Aunt Zishuang wanted to speak, but was stopped by a look from the Empress Dowager Mingxi.
"Please forgive me, Queen Mother, but I have indeed been wondering about this issue for a long time." Lu Xianchen said.
Empress Dowager Mingxi was not angry. She seemed to find it a bit funny. She smiled and said, "Yes, you look calm and composed, but you are actually a child who can't get rid of the sand in your eyes."
"Your Majesty is not in good health right now. It is hard for me not to think about him. Now that my words have come to this point, I would like to ask the Queen Mother for an accurate answer. Otherwise, if you are worried every day, you will be uneasy. Please grant it to the Queen Mother."
"Your Majesty, forgive me." Lu Xianchen's tone was firm.
The Empress Dowager Mingxi nodded: "Yes, I should question myself, why I was so afraid of my sons and grandchildren, afraid of their growth, afraid of them gaining power beyond me."
"I can't understand." Lu Xianchen sounded panicked.
"You should know that kings and ministers come before father and son," said the Empress Dowager Mingxi.
Lu Xianchen was stunned. Yes, if the Empress Dowager Mingxi was a male, it would not be difficult to understand.
Are there many cases in history where father and son became suspicious and turned against each other? Men can attack their own sons. Is it so difficult to understand by analogy to women?
"If Amo wasn't my only grandson, I might be even more afraid of him." said the Queen Mother Mingxi.
When the system asked her to choose whether to save the Empress Dowager Mingxi, she had been told clearly that as a woman, the Empress Dowager Mingxi spent the first half of her life interpreting the words "ambitious" with her actions. After getting married, she would most likely compete for power with the little emperor. In fact, she did the same thing. Lu Xianchen made several preparations before the little emperor agreed to the Queen Mother's decision to listen to politics behind the curtain, barely maintaining the current stable situation.
Su Panhan chose to train Su Fengyao between her grandson and granddaughter because she could subconsciously see that Su Fengyao lacked the desire for power in her bones, and her success would pose less of a threat to Su Panhan's power.
Su Panhan still longed for power. She watched the little emperor grow up during the years when she was seriously ill. She was afraid of losing power. Just like the dying emperor was afraid of the prince, she was also moved by her grandson. Killing intent.
But it is impossible to kill.
But by default, Fu Chengze's control over him was also true.
But now it seems that this is really a wrong decision. Su Fengyao retreats. She has reached the point where she has only Su Fengmo as her heir. Su Fengmo's health is her biggest hope.
The Empress Dowager Mingxi thought about it, her expression was indescribably complicated: "All my life, I only hate that I am not a man."
"I'm relieved that the Queen Mother will not harm Your Majesty again." Lu Xianchen bowed and said respectfully.
Su Panhan nodded: "You are sincerely for His Majesty."
Yes, although the Empress Dowager Mingxi is still ambitious, she has to face the dilemma of having only Su Fengmo as his heir, so she will not offend the young emperor.
"But, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is so eager to have a concubine for Her Majesty..." Lu Xianchen simply stated all his doubts.
Su Panhan probably didn't expect Lu Xianchen to be so honest and even question him.
No matter what, there was no other person around her who was so bold and reckless. Dr. Lu had a pure nature and did things properly. Su Panhan really liked her, so she was very tolerant.
Su Panhan did not deny it and answered ambiguously: "If there is a great-grandson in the future, it will be ten years before his character can be seen - who knows whether he will live to that time."
"I have said this to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess. The Su family's current situation can be said to be in turmoil. External disturbances are already troublesome. We must not cause any internal disturbances at this time." Lu Xianchen said sincerely.
Su Panhan looked at Lu Xianchen and could tell that what she said was disobedient, but if she liked a child, she would unconsciously put a filter on her. She couldn't get angry no matter what the girl said, so she couldn't help but smile: "Okay , Doctor Lu’s words are indeed reasonable.”
Lu Xianchen continued to look at the book in his hand amidst the kindness of the Empress Dowager Mingxi. The daughters of this family, the ladies of that family, and the Yingying Yanyan group were all surrounding the little emperor. He felt an inexplicable irritability in his chest that was still not gone.
All of them are troubles, and no one wants to be the purest.
The time soon came to the Lantern Festival. Lu Xianchen really couldn't exclude certain people, so he didn't cross out any of them. All the girls in their thirties were queued up for the little emperor to choose from.
Lu Xianchen was troubled just thinking about that scene. He was picking and choosing among a group of girls. That was really the behavior of a scumbag.
My cute little cub, my cute little emperor, my cute little tiger will grow up and become a scumbag. I really can't accept this situation for a while.
I can't even tell if this little emperor is cuter if he is stupid.
Wow, life is always full of countless regrets.
System, I want to prevent my cute little boy from turning into a scumbag. Well, I want him to become a good emperor who is infatuated and dedicated.
The blue ball of wool glanced at her sideways: "So, what are you going to do?"
"What's your attitude? This is a very serious matter." Lu Xianchen said, "The little emperor will also be a character in this novel. If he is an upright, kind and dedicated good boy, it will be easier for readers to be satisfied. If such a smart and intelligent child is written as a scumbag, readers will definitely have objections."
The system has been told by this "excellent" writer that it has run out of ideas: "Okay, just tell me what to do."
"This little emperor's blind date is either a blind date, or the way to choose a concubine is to guess lantern riddles at the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival. Please help me arrange the lanterns and riddles, and let the little emperor talk to Fu Miao. This pair will definitely come together. We must give him an infatuated and dedicated personality." Lu Xianchen ordered.
"...I don't think readers will care too much about this."
"Why don't you care," Lu Xianchen said, and the system knew that the familiar words were coming again, "As a perfectionist writer, I think the main characters in the novel must be lovable, and the deputy CP is also a very important part. , isn’t it?”
"But your main CP hasn't been found yet." The system reminded weakly.
"Okay, let's collect a booklet of the macro-evaluations of the five male protagonists and see which one the readers are more satisfied with. I will find a way to recommend it." Lu Xianchen thought.
"That's what happens later. Let's do this for now. The eldest princess hasn't returned from Yuanlu yet."
"Uh-huh, my little emperor is going to have a concubine, ahhhh, he's going to have a concubine!"
System: "...Host, please be sensible..."
