Lord Hou, you have been flopped again

Chapter 21 The Concubine I Want
Di Yan smiled, put down the teacup, and said, "Queen Mother, I have already told you that I have to make decisions on matters of marriage."

"A few days ago, those daughters from aristocratic families at the concubine selection banquet were a bit more distinguished. In terms of appearance and temperament, they were not as good as you, the maids in the Taihua Palace. How do I choose them?"

Hearing this, the queen became even more annoyed, and said: "According to your opinion, if you haven't taken your fancy all the time, the crown princess will always be vacant?"

"Mother," Di Yan narrowed her long, dark eyes, and coaxed her beloved queen with her usual tricks, and said with a smile, "Although my son and minister have reached the age of marriage, they are not in a hurry to get married. Other princes Aren’t many of the noble’s sons still unmarried? Queen Mother, I’m not in a hurry.”

"You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry!" Xia shook her head helplessly, but she couldn't do anything about her favorite son.

It was more than a year after Xia's marriage with the current Holy Master that she became pregnant, but she had another miscarriage, and it took a long time for her body to recover slowly.Seeing that Concubine Rong gave birth to the first prince, Xia Shi thought that she would have no chance of having another child until she became pregnant with Di Yan.

For this son, the Xia family loved him as much as he could, and he grew up in the palm of his hand. Now that he insists on choosing a concubine by himself, how can the Xia family do anything.

Sighing, Xia's expression became more solemn, and he said slowly: "Yan'er, this eldest prince was going to have a son last year, and I just heard that another side concubine is pregnant, if you have another son, you are not married yet, this... ...Hey, Yan'er, you should understand what the queen mother means. This is also the reason why the queen mother urged you to get married."

Di Yan twitched her lips, with a calm expression, she picked up her teacup and continued to drink tea.

Heirs are the basis for consolidating a dynasty.In history, there have been emperors who had no heirs to inherit, which caused civil strife among the clan, and tried to overthrow the dynasty and replace it.Only by giving birth to the prince early can the royal family and court be stabilized.

"Of course my son understands what the queen mother means." Di Yan said, "That's why my son is very picky about the choice of concubine. If he wants to inherit the throne, he must be a virtuous monarch. But if his mother is not a good person , and where is the virtuous gentleman?"

Di Yan looked at Xia Shi, and coaxed, "The concubine I want must be at least half as talented and intelligent as my mother's queen."

One sentence coaxed Xia to smile.

"Okay, okay, then I'll do it again." Xia said with a smile, "But, next year at the latest. If it's delayed any longer, I'm afraid your father will interfere."

Di Yan said: "After thanking my mother, my son obeyed."

Di Yan raised her eyebrows, and a look of satisfaction flashed across her eyes.At least Keergen has been quiet this year.

Just as he was talking, someone ran in with a smile.

The girl, about nine years old, was dressed in pink brocade newly tributed by the palace, and jade hairpins on her head. She looked pretty, and her pair of black eyes were particularly clear.

She was dressed luxuriously, and the hollow ball she was playing in was actually pure gold, which showed her noble status.

Sure enough, when she saw Xia Shi and Di Yan, she called out softly: "Greetings to Queen Mother and Brother Emperor."

"Cen'er is here!" Mrs. Xia stretched out her hand to the girl and said with a smile, "Come here, let the queen mother hug you."

The girl slipped delicately into Xia Shi's arms.

After giving birth to Di Yan, the Xia family has only had one daughter so far, and the fifth princess in front of her, Di Cen, is naturally loved like a jewel in the palm of her hand.

Di Yan also dotes on this only biological sister.

At this time, the hollow golden ball held by Di Cen is exquisitely carved, and each carving is inlaid with gemstones of different colors. It is invaluable, and it was personally selected by Di Cen from the several ships of tributes that the vassal state attacked. , exclusively for Dicken to play with.
