"What do you think, Queen Mother?"

The Queen Mother did not expect that the Emperor would ask her about it after looking at the portrait. He hesitated and said, "I think they are all good."

"What about the queen?"

Lu Hebei motioned to the young eunuch behind him to hand the portrait to the queen.

The queen pursed her lips and raised her hand to take the portrait and look through it carefully. She knew most of the girls in the portrait, and even if she didn't, there were small words marked on the side of the portrait, which clearly marked the names, birthdays, and origins of the people in the portrait.

Gongsun Wanying raised her head and looked at the emperor opposite. The emperor seemed to have lost some weight recently, and his eyes were no longer as bright as before. She always thought that this man only had hers in his heart.

But now, the emperor asked her to choose a concubine for him!

The queen wanted to ask her to clear her throat before speaking, but after all, it was in front of the queen mother and the emperor. Gongsun Wanying endured it again and again before speaking with difficulty: "I think everything is good, too."

Not only are they good, these portraits sent to the Queen Mother are all of the best women in the boudoir in the capital.

The woman in the top portrait is the prettiest. She has just reached her hair and is as young as petals. This woman comes from the Zhao family in southern Anhui. The Zhao family is a century-old family in southern Anhui. Several of their children are serving as officials in Beijing.

.

What can Xi Ge do?

The Queen Mother knew that he was innocent, but the Queen didn't know that!

No matter whether he chooses or not, as long as Lu Qingluan is standing in front of him, no one dares to suspect that there is something wrong with the emperor's health.

A very sweet and cute little girl.

It was because she begged her grandfather that she became the queen today.

"What's wrong with the Queen?"

Murong Ru had a sister named Murong Wan, who was once Gongsun Wanying's best friend. The two had known each other since childhood and had always had a good relationship. Later, Murong Wan married far away, and the two gradually became estranged and there was no news.

Ever since I became pregnant, my body and bones have been in good health, I can eat and sleep, and I have no morning sickness for a long time.

At that time, she had just married the emperor, who was still King of Qin. People outside said that the emperor had been weak since he was a child and had weak bones.

"Since the queen can't smell the smell of this ink, then take it and burn it."

The woman in the second portrait, Gongsun Wanying, is even more familiar, Murong Ru. Her grandfather was the former Taifu, who jumped down from the Gangu Temple at the time of the transition from old to new, thus clearing his name.

She always felt that these portraits were a bit weird, but she didn't understand why.

Gongsun Wanying wanted to retort. If she said that she retched because of the smell of the ink, would the Queen Mother and the Emperor think that she was jealous and acted like this?

After weighing it over and over in her mind, Gongsun Wanying's voice became astringent: "Maybe the wind blew in my body last night, and I just smelled the smell of ink today, and I feel uncomfortable."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly before continuing, "A group of shameless people dare to speculate on the holy will without authorization. Their intentions are to be punished."

Lu Hebei took the blame innocently, but he couldn't defend himself.

It is her grandfather and father who have been supporting her from behind and telling her that she must go on bravely even if the road she chooses is full of thorns.

No wonder!

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but retched a few times.

When the late Emperor chose her to be the Princess of Qin, everyone thought it was because of her grandfather, but little did they know that it was because she fell in love at first sight with His Majesty, who was the King of Qin at the time, and risked becoming a widow to marry her.

But if he doesn't do this, after his death, those courtiers will definitely let the emperor choose him because of the vacancy in the harem and the lack of children in the royal family.

When Gongsun Wanying was granted the title of Prince Qin's Mansion, not to mention her relatives at home, even her own mother secretly wiped away tears several times, fearing that she would become a widow as soon as she married into Prince Qin's Mansion.

It's really disgusting. How dare these people? They are not afraid of trying to figure out the Holy Will like this...

A weak prince is not suitable to be crown prince, which is why the emperor has never established a prince.

Lu Zhaoyi in the palace did not have hairpins, because Lu Zhaoyi was young, and the emperor was reprimanded by the Queen Mother in front of her.

Lu Hebei's eyes fell on the pale queen across from him, and his heart ached. Xi Ge had indeed wronged the queen by sending Lu Qingluan into the palace.

Her uncle's cousin had been envious and jealous of her status since she was a child. When she heard that she was going to marry the frail and sick King of Qin, she secretly advised her to run away from the marriage.

"My body... my body..."

The Queen Mother looked over sideways, "But you caught a cold, why do you keep retching?"

She still remembered the appearance of Murong Ru, who was several years younger than her and Murong Wan. She had her hair combed and always liked to run behind them.

Or the emperor spoke: "Is it because the ink on this drawing paper doesn't smell good?"

When Concubine Zhou was in power and the rumors were at their strongest, someone came in and secretly said that King Qin would not live to be twenty-five years old.

Lu Hebei frowned and looked at the queen who was retching, with worry in his tone: "Wanying?"

Gongsun Wanying's eyes fell on the emperor opposite. She was in a daze for a moment, as if she had forgotten what the emperor looked like at first.

Murong Ru's father is currently the Prince's Young Master. It is said that this man is so knowledgeable that even a child as young as Xing'er can listen to his class without falling asleep.

If these people who sell their daughters for glory are shameless, then wouldn’t it be even more shameless for the new emperor to adopt Lu Zhaoyi, who has not yet reached the age of hairpins?

Gongsun Wanying seemed to have thought of something and retched.

Not to mention that the Queen saw something fishy in this, in fact the Emperor and the Queen Mother also saw what these people meant by sending the portraits.

Gongsun Wanying had an excellent pregnancy, and her morning sickness only lasted for more than ten days. She ate well and slept well. If Wu Yueniang hadn't caused some trouble, and the new beauty Lu Qingluan had been admitted to the palace, Gongsun Wanying would have said she was pregnant this time.

Maybe I can gain an extra ten or twenty kilograms of meat.

Among the women in these portraits, the eldest daughter of the Zhao family has just reached the age of hairpins. The remaining ones are all thirteen or fourteen years old and have not yet reached the age of hairpins.

Gongsun Wanying hesitated and didn't know how to answer for a long time.

The emperor touched his nose in embarrassment, but did not dare to defend himself.

Gongsun Wanying raised her hand and waved it, indicating that she was fine.

Now she knows.

As for the queen, it would be best if she could understand it, but it would also be good if she couldn't understand it and was confused.

Now, this little girl has grown up and can get married?

How old is Murong Ru this year?

Thirteen or fourteen?

Zhao's father was born in Erjia and is currently the prefect of Lin'an.

But now, looking at the young faces in the portraits, Gongsun Wanying still shuddered and couldn't help but retching again and again.

The emperor and the empress did not dare to say a word when they heard the empress dowager's curse. The empress felt evil in her heart and just rubbed her heart and said nothing.

When Xing'er grows up, the Queen will surely understand the painstaking efforts he and Xiang Ge put into and will no longer resent him.

The portrait was burned by the Queen Mother. It was said that the Queen was pregnant and could not smell the ink.

When the girls who sent the portraits heard the news, they were terrified, fearing that they would offend the Queen Mother and the Empress by taking this step too hastily.

On the contrary, the women who were given portraits were either ashamed, angry or happy.
