I handed over the system in a hurry

Emperor Xiao was blameless in state affairs, but he was somewhat of a coward when it came to women, and he had countless beauties in his harem.

When there are more beauties, there are more children. Emperor Xiao has more than ten princes who grew up under his knees, not to mention more than a dozen daughters.

Having many children is also a sign of rejuvenation for the country, but unfortunately, none of the many adult princes was born to the current queen.

Today's queen does not give birth to a prince until she is middle-aged.

I wonder if it was because the Queen gave birth to a child too late, and the legitimate son she gave birth to was not in good health. He is only three or four years old now, and I heard that he would cough when exposed to the wind.

Due to his weak body and bones, the legitimate son born to this queen had not yet attained enlightenment when he was three or four years old.

Whether it is due to physical weakness or lack of enlightenment at the age of three or four, this is not a good thing for a prince, especially a legitimate prince.

Emperor Xiao is now forty-six or seventy-years-old, and his body and bones seem to be still strong. However, he has been hard at work all year round and addicted to women. It is hard to say how many years he can last.

To put it bluntly, it's time to establish a prince.

There has always been a direct line between the crown prince and the eldest son without a direct line. Of course, if the legitimate son is the eldest son, that would be the best and what every courtier hopes to see.

But not every emperor and courtier could encounter this kind of thing.

Obviously Emperor Xiao was not the lucky emperor.

He has a legitimate son, but his legitimate son is only three or four years old now. Not to mention underage, he has not even passed the age of premature death.

Moreover, this legitimate son is not in good health.

Not only did he have a legitimate son, but he also had an eldest son.

The eldest son has grown up and has no major physical problems. Not only that, he has his own style and has already flourished for the royal family.

I heard there is nothing wrong with him.

Yes, in Xiao Emperor's opinion, lust is not a problem.

Nowadays, the court has already been quarreling over the matter of establishing a crown prince. Sang Yunli comes home every day with a sad face, as if he has aged a few years.

And now the group of people she and Lu Yuncheng bumped into were none other than Xiao Yin, the eldest prince of the current dynasty.

The two acquaintances behind Xiao Yin were none other than Sang Qi, and Zheng Shudao, who had just had a conflict in the Imperial College a few days ago.

"Yuncheng, I haven't seen you in Chunfeng Tower for a long time." Xiao Yin didn't know Sancho, so he didn't give Sancho a look and only talked to Lu Yuncheng.

Lu Yuncheng laughed twice and said, "I have been busy with the Imperial Examinations recently, so I don't have time to come to Chunfeng Tower to show off."

"Haha, I'm sorry you actually know how to make progress. It's a rare encounter today. Let's go, my emperor... I'll invite you in for a drink!"

The eldest prince who was about to leave actually turned around and pulled Lu Yuncheng into Chunfeng Tower again.

Sancho was a step behind and did not follow him. He was a little hesitant that if he just ran away like this, Lu Yuncheng would come back to settle accounts with her.

After hesitating for a moment, she still didn't want to turn around and be talked about by Lu Yuncheng, so she raised her feet and followed him, walking beside Sang Qi.

"I haven't seen my brother for a few days. He has lost a lot of weight recently."

Glancing at Sang Qi who looked unnaturally white on the side, Sancho had nothing to say.

She actually didn't have much contact with Sang Qi.

When she was in the Imperial College, she was in Class Four, Class D, and Sang Qi was in Class A, Class A of the Imperial College. There were few opportunities to meet them.

When they returned to Sang Mansion, one of them ran to Yunlan Garden and the other to Yi Yao Garden, so there were even fewer opportunities for contact.

Only when Sang Yunli takes a bath can the family sit at the same table and have a meal.

After not seeing each other for a few days, I didn't expect that Sang Qi's body would be so weak.

His face looked like he had drunk too much.

Unlike the original owner, Sang Qi didn't have many opportunities to drink. He had always been a good student before, spending most of his time studying and not socializing much.

And his body is not suitable for drinking. In the past, at home, Sang Yunli got into the mood, and when everyone toasted together, Sang Qi's face would turn red after just one glass of wine.

Now that I'm following the eldest prince Xiao Yin, I'm afraid he's drinking too much.

It's strange that my body is so weak.

but···

Sancho lowered his head and began to think.

When Sang Qi followed Xiao Yin, was it his own intention or Sang Yunli's?

If this is what Sang Yunli meant, does that mean that the Prime Minister Meng behind the Meng family is also from the eldest prince Xiao Yin's faction?

Today's Emperor Xiao is barely healthy, and the current queen is not without strength behind her. Are Sang Yunli and Meng Xiang taking sides too quickly?

Or is it that the health of the legitimate prince Xiao Zhen is already so bad that the courtiers have given up hope?

Now that she has not entered the DPRK, she does not have very clear information about the DPRK.

However, I think her study tour plan may have to be brought forward.

She has no intention of getting involved in the battle for the throne.

The eldest prince has won over Sang Qi. She is the legitimate son of Sang Siye who has not yet belonged to her family and has corrected her evil ways. I am afraid there will be some people extending an olive branch to her.

After entering Chunfeng Tower, Xiao Yin skillfully selected many girls to accompany him.

As a former frequent visitor to Chunfeng Tower, Sancho was also impressed by the beauty of these girls. They all had natural beauty, the kind of looks that would make one's heart melt at a glance.

These girls used to be very smart, they knew what to say to whom, and they also knew who to flatter and who not to flatter.

But today, when Sancho looked at the slightly stiff movements of these girls, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Judging from Xiao Yin's proficiency, he must also be a frequent visitor to Chunfeng Tower.

Since they are regular customers, these girls in Chunfeng Tower should have figured out his identity a long time ago. Instead of sticking to him tenderly and affectionately, they should be treating him with a grape on the left and a drink of wine on the right.

Why are the smiles on these girls' faces even showing a bit of rigidity, as if they were forced smiles, and their bodies trembled a few times inadvertently when they got close to Xiao Yin.

That's strange.

Before Sancho could figure out why these girls were so afraid of Xiao Yin, he heard Xiao Yin casually ask Lu Yuncheng: "What is your brother Yun Qi busy with these days? How come I haven't seen him even though I asked him for drinks several times?"

available?"

Lu Yuncheng drank the wine in one gulp with a headache and said: "Isn't it because the weather is cold? It's time for the soldiers in the north to replenish their winter clothes and supplies. My eldest brother has not returned home during this time because of these busy jobs.

Woolen cloth."

Xiao Yin half-smiled, "Oh? Isn't your sister-in-law the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Hubu? How come your eldest brother wants money from the Hubu, but the Hubu still dares not to give it to him?"

"Hey, as a legitimate daughter, should I be stingy? The last time my sister-in-law went back to plead for mercy, she was not even allowed in. She said she would go back after winter."

Xiao Yin didn't know whether he believed it or not, and laughed loudly, "Haha, that's really hard for your brother. This wife married but didn't have much help."

Lu Yuncheng's expression turned ugly for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile: "I dare not say that, my eldest brother and sister-in-law are very affectionate. Later, my eldest sister-in-law found out, and it's time for my eldest brother to sleep in the study."

It's not because of any bullshit interests.
