Chapter 51: Accidentally Provoking the Dark Guard, Begging for Mercy Every Night (1)
"Sister, I actually have no intention of entering the palace. All I want in this life is to be with one person for the rest of my life."
"Sister is extremely beautiful, and she is wearing the emperor's favorite light blue color. She will definitely win the emperor's favor and be successfully selected."
When Lin Ran realized that she had traveled through time again, she heard the beautiful and elegant woman sitting in the carriage say.
This time, the world that he entered was a feudal dynasty novel, where the male emperor had no descendants, and the female protagonist traveled through time with a pregnancy system to save him. Within seven years, she gave birth to ten princes and princesses for the male emperor.
The male protagonist, Si Zhan, has been on the throne for ten years and has hundreds of beauties in his harem.
Although there was no queen, there were four concubines who jointly managed the harem.
The hero normally flips through the harem cards every month and favors all the concubines equally.
But in the past ten years, none of the concubines had any signs of pregnancy, and now the emperor has no prince or princess.
Now the hero is about to enter his thirties. How can he inherit the throne without any offspring?
Not to mention the favored concubines who were so anxious that bubbles appeared on their mouths. They ate bowl after bowl of bitter and disgusting Chinese herbal secret recipes with their eyes closed, hoping that their stomachs would be able to bear an heir to the emperor as soon as possible.
Even the ministers in the court and the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau were extremely anxious. They stuffed batches of young and healthy beauties into the harem, and sent bowls of newly researched and formulated Chinese medicine to the harem, but to no avail.
If the emperor has no offspring, the foundation of the previous dynasty will be shaken. Recently, a minister has tactfully proposed adopting a prince from the royal family.
The emperor was so angry that he walked away on the spot, refusing to accept the proposal.
He didn't believe that his problem was with him. After all, he had searched all the famous doctors in the world, and they all assured him that there was nothing wrong with his body and that he could have children of his own.
Then, it must be the women in the harem who are not good enough!
The Queen Mother was so angry that she scolded all the concubines for being useless and persuaded the male protagonist to arrange another beauty contest.
As long as there are new people entering the harem, I believe there will always be one who can bear a royal heir and expand the royal family!
The male protagonist thought it made a lot of sense.
So while arranging the selection of concubines, he also issued an oral decree that the first concubine who could become pregnant and give birth to a prince would sit on the throne of queen, and the prince born would be made crown prince.
For a time, all the civil and military officials who had daughters of marriageable age were ready to make a move.
The Empress Dowager's maternal family, the Lin family, also kept sending people to the draft. This time, the only women of the right age were Lin Ran and Lin Shu, both concubines.
Lin Shu is the heroine who traveled through time with the good pregnancy system.
At this time, she was riding in the same carriage with Lin Ran into the palace for the selection, but she was talking about this fresh and elegant woman who had no intention of entering the palace.
But in fact, when Lin Shu set out, she had already exchanged various charm-enhancing pills in her system mall.
When she meets the emperor, she can exchange for a skill that can make the emperor fall in love with her at first sight, and then she will be chosen to enter the palace.
She was also able to act as gentle as a chrysanthemum, elegant and refined, making her a unique presence in the harem where all the concubines were vying for favor.
Thinking about the original plot, she would also be selected on the day of the talent show, and become a plot tool along with all the concubines who could not conceive an imperial heir, and be abandoned after sleeping with the emperor, Lin Ran was already sweating profusely.
What she was wearing was the protagonist’s favorite light blue color!
The original plot also mentioned that once the hero sleeps with the heroine, he will no longer be able to stay attracted to other women. The huge harem is like a waste, and only the heroine can enjoy the favor of the hero.
Hundreds of concubines who became plot tools began to live as widows at a young age and were finally expelled from the palace in order to highlight the deep love between the emperor and the empress.
She was a woman who had been slept with by the emperor, or was dismissed from the palace because she could not give birth to a child. Who could she marry after leaving the palace?
Perhaps because Lin Ran had been silent for a long time, Lin Shu looked at her with a slightly puzzled look.
Lin Ran was in a bad mood, and her slight smile seemed forced.
"Sister, being successfully selected is useless. You have to be able to give birth to offspring for the emperor." Lin Ran said, sighing deliberately and looking at the other person with envy.
"I see that you have a rosy complexion and a well-proportioned figure, and you look like someone who can give birth to a son. You are so blessed."
They are all concubines' daughters born to the aunt in the family. They have equal status and no one is nobler than the other.
If the emperor of the time had not been childless and the three legitimate daughters who were sent to the palace had not given birth to any children, how could they have had the opportunity to enter the palace and be selected as concubines.
Lin Shu felt a little disdainful of Lin Ran's words which sounded like flattery.
She thought that she had a good pregnancy system in her hands. As long as she was favored by the emperor, she would not only be able to conceive a royal heir in one go, but she could also choose whether to have a single or multiple births, as well as the gender of the fetus!
When the time comes, let those women who are destined to never conceive a dragon heir in this lifetime be jealous and envious!
However, Lin Shu didn't show it on her face.
She only spoke softly:
"Sister, please stop making fun of me. You know I never studied the arts well since I was a child. I only like to study food. That's why I eat so much and am so fat. How can I have a good figure?
Maybe the emperor will just think I'm fat when he sees me, and won't even bother to look at me, and will just give me flowers instead."
Lin Ran couldn't help but glance at Lin Shu's chest.
Oh my god, she got herself an E cup figure, with a large piece of fabric bulging in front of her chest. How could she not look fat?
But I think all men would like this kind of fat!
Lin Ran quietly lowered her head to look at herself again.
It's moderate.
She is only sixteen years old now, so she should still be able to grow.
And Lin Shu is half a year younger than her.
There's no way around it. This was the way it was in that dynasty. Once you reached the age of 15, you could get married and have children.
……
He quickly entered the palace and got off the carriage.
All the beauties lined up according to the rules, waiting to be summoned by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.
Lin Ran and Lin Shu stood together.
It was found that as long as the concubines were qualified, they would be selected and kept their names, and the passing rate was very high.
It can be seen that the palace is aiming for as many candidates as possible in this selection.
Soon, it was Lin Ran and Lin Shu's turn.
A row of beautiful girls stood together and saluted according to the rules to the emperor and the empress dowager who were sitting in the hall.
There was a eunuch in front reading out the family background, name and age of each concubine.
When the names of Lin Ran and Lin Shu were read, the Empress Dowager's eyes changed a little, and her tone softened, asking them to raise their heads.
After all, she is the daughter of her own brother. As long as she can conceive an heir to the throne and preserve the kingdom that she and the emperor had finally won in the palace battle, the empress dowager will not despise a concubine's daughter of low status.
Her hope now temporarily rests on the two concubines' daughters from her maternal family.
As long as one of them can give birth to a prince, and the Lin family can have a queen, the future glory of the entire family will be more secure.
"Yes, let's keep the nameplates, Emperor. What do you think?"
