Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

But the emperor had normal intercourse with other concubines, and they had no children. This made the emperor anxious, fearing that without a son to ascend the throne, the throne would still be in the hands of his brothers and sons in the future.

Well, then, I finally got the throne. Since I have no son, and I have to give it back to my brothers, don’t be so angry, especially when I think about how I endured the domineering behavior of Liu Shoufu and Empress Liu in the harem for the sake of the throne. If you don't have children, won't all these hardships be in vain? How is this possible?

So the emperor had already thought about it. If something was really wrong with him, he would deal with both Liu Shoufu and Empress Liu. Anyway, he had no children and would have no future. If he killed them, he would be embarrassed by the cowardice he had suffered over the years. The tone is also good.

Because the emperor was also worried about his physical condition, he also asked the imperial physician to examine his body secretly.

The emperor was afraid that drinking medicine would damage his body.

The result of the examination was that there was nothing wrong with his health. In fact, it was very good. This was normal. After all, would the imperial doctor dare to prescribe him medicine that would damage his body, unless he died?

In this way, if the women in the harem are not pregnant, they don't know why.

Empress Liu naturally didn't know that the emperor wanted to kill her. She was also worried about the child at the moment and asked a doctor to see her, but they all said that there was nothing wrong with her health.

After hearing this so often, Empress Liu was also worried that something was wrong with the emperor's health.

She didn't suspect that the emperor's health was not good because other women couldn't get pregnant. It was because she had tampered with other women's failure to get pregnant. All the concubines she didn't like, that is, the concubines who pleased the emperor, were easily killed. She killed them, so how could anyone get pregnant? And those who could make her stay were either her people, or even if they were not her people, they would listen to her, so when these people were favored by the emperor, she was They were given decoctions and incense, so that even those women who were favored could not get pregnant.

Those women don’t want to die, so they will naturally be honest and obedient.

So this pair of emperors and concubines are really good enough. One drugged himself and the other drugged other concubines. The effect was to prevent pregnancy. If this continued, the emperor would really have no children.

The reason why Empress Liu suspected the emperor was that the emperor had sex with her and Yu Anran, and they had never gotten pregnant, so Empress Liu suspected that she was having sex with the emperor.

Because she had no control over Yu Anran, she had been worried that Yu Anran would become pregnant. As a result, Yu Anran was not pregnant at all.

Therefore, Empress Liu thought like her father and mother. She felt that the emperor was not completely incompetent, but he might be a little bit incompetent. After all, she had been pregnant before, but she was not able to do it now, so it was not possible that the emperor was a little bit incompetent. no.

However, the emperor couldn't do it. She didn't dare to mention it, and she didn't dare to check it with the emperor. If she asked this question, the emperor would definitely be angry to death, and that would definitely not work.

However, if we do not check, if the emperor has been unable to have children, what will happen if the emperor has no children in the future and the emperor who ascends the throne in the future is not his son?

If nothing else, the Liu family needs to make plans early!

Thinking of this, when Mrs. Liu came to the palace to see Empress Liu, Empress Liu quietly mentioned this matter to her mother and asked her to go back and discuss with her father: What would the Liu family plan to do in the future if the emperor had no children.

Although she will be the Queen Mother no matter who takes the throne in the future, her weight will be different if her biological son becomes the emperor.

Just like the Queen Mother, she is indeed the Queen Mother now, but the emperor hates her. She was not the Queen Mother when the late Emperor was around. She had no power when she was the Queen, and the Cheng'en Palace was not as prosperous as when the late Emperor was around.

With Queen Mother Yin Jian in front of her, Queen Liu did not want her family to follow in the footsteps of Duke Cheng'en in the future.

Don't think that Liu Shoufu is the first assistant, just like the Yu family.

Liu Shoufu's influence has been weakened now. In the future, when the new emperor takes the throne, he will be the emperor and his courtiers. If Liu Shoufu does not hold on, he will most likely be removed from his post by the new emperor and let his people take the position. So if there is a clan member who takes the position , from now on, the Liu family must think about which clan to make the crown prince, so as not to fall into an embarrassing situation in the future.

In fact, Liu Shoufu had also thought about this issue. After all, the emperor had no heirs, and it was impossible for senior officials like them not to prepare a way out.

However, he couldn't tell it in front of his daughter and wife. In fact, his health has not been as good as before in the past two years, at least his energy is not as good as before.

If he wanted to be as vigorous as before, support another clan to rise to power, and continue to occupy the position of chief minister, even if he wanted to, his energy would not allow it.

So Liu Shoufu has already thought about it. Their family now has a title, and their daughter is a queen in the palace. Even if the new emperor comes to the throne, her daughter can also be the queen mother, and the family will still be the Duke's palace, so he won't bother. Bar.

Although he knew that he did not help the new emperor to ascend to the throne, and if he came down in the future, his family would not be as prosperous as it is now, but he really did not have the energy to do this. If he could keep the title of his family, there would be another Queen Mother in the family in the future. Not bad.

So he really wanted to tell his wife and daughter, don't expect too much. As far as the current situation is concerned, let alone supporting the new emperor to ascend the throne, the emperor and his political opponents are getting stronger and stronger, and their family is not even in its current status. If he can't keep it, he will step down before the new emperor takes the throne. By then, there will really be nothing left.

This is not because he is careless, but that things are indeed changing, but his daughter and wife have not noticed it yet.

His energy is getting weaker and weaker, and the power of his political opponents and the emperor is getting stronger. He is worried that new changes will occur before he is gone.

So now, seeing that his wife and daughter were still energetic and wanted to continue the prosperous business after the new emperor came to the throne, Liu Shoufu almost wanted to smile bitterly, thinking that these two people were too naive to be like the Queen Mother Yu and Duke Chengen. If the house is like that, and the protection is to that level, it’s pretty good. Don’t dislike other people’s bad lives.

In fact, if the Empress Dowager Yu had not killed the emperor's biological mother, the emperor probably knew about it, and the Empress Dowager Yu and Duke Cheng'en's mansion would not be as miserable as they are now. And as long as the new emperor's biological mother was not killed, his own family would be in trouble in the future. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, my family will not be pitiful. My daughter and wife are overthinking it.

When An Ran was asked to speak, she actually felt that Liu Shoufu was overthinking.

According to her diagnosis of the emperor's body, today's emperor is in good health and there is no problem in living for another thirty or forty years. It is not known when the new emperor will ascend the throne.

By then Liu Shoufu will be gone, and so will Mrs. Liu, and maybe even Empress Liu will be gone, so why worry about being so far away?

In addition, An Ran did not find anything wrong with the emperor's body, but she found out that Empress Liu did not allow the concubines to get pregnant and did things to those concubines, so the concubines in the palace were not pregnant. She felt that it was normal and it was not that the emperor was not good.
