Chapter 353 The Word "Good"
Chapter 353 The Word "Good"
"Your Majesty, the Queen wishes to see you."
Qin Zhi paused while rubbing the Thirteenth Prince Qin Minghu's big hands, then lifted him from his arms and put him aside.
"Invite her in."
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be well and healthy."
Shen Ningyue bowed and greeted gracefully, her movements smooth and natural without seeming rigid.
"No need to be polite."
Qin Zhi waved at her, motioning her to come over.
The Thirteenth Prince Qin Minghu poked his head out from behind Qin Zhi, hastily saluted Shen Ningyue, and then shrank back behind Qin Zhi.
"Did your mother hit you or scold you? Why does our Thirteenth Prince act like a mouse seeing a cat when he sees your mother?"
Qin Zhi slapped the thirteenth prince Qin Minghu on the back of the head, causing him to scream.
Without waiting for the Thirteenth Prince Qin Minghu to explain, Qin Zhi had him quickly taken away.
Everyone is used to this scene.
"Your Majesty, I am here to discuss the selection of girls. Tomorrow, the girls will enter the palace to learn the rules and regulations, and wait for the final selection.
Although you have already selected the wives of the Sixth Prince, the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Ninth Prince, they are just waiting for this selection to go through the motions and for your marriage granting.
But it has been almost a year, I came to check with His Majesty again, in case His Majesty forgets about these trivial matters and accidentally..."
"Accidentally what?"
Qin Zhi's expression remained unchanged, and he stared at Shen Ningyue with a faint smile in his eyes.
Shen Ningyue rolled her eyes at Qin Zhi.
Asking questions knowingly!
"They were accidentally taken into the harem. The families of these girls had already made preparations, and they each knew whose prince's consort they would become.
If Your Majesty accidentally takes them into the harem, how embarrassing would that be?
Your Majesty has seen countless beauties, and you won't suddenly fall in love with a few young girls who have just reached the age of marriage, but I understand Your Majesty."
It is very likely that you will forget something you don't care about.
If the designated prince's consort is included in the harem, it would not be difficult to choose a new one, except that the time for the new bride to prepare to marry the prince would be a bit tight. But she felt embarrassed.
She had met those girls before. Last year, during the palace banquets during the holidays, Shen Ningyue would always keep them together to talk. Everyone knew the relationship between them.
If an accident happens...it's better to avoid it if possible.
"Seventeen, when have I ever done something so absurd?"
Qin Zhi found it extremely funny for a moment.
But...which girl did he arrange for Lao Ba before?
Qin Zhi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
Well, he did forget.
As for the affairs of the harem and the backyard, it's not a matter of choosing who to go to, it's not like someone is going to suppress a rebellion, she's a girl, it's enough if she can give birth, it's not like he's going to marry her...
Qin Zhi silently tried to make amends for himself in his heart.
"Your Majesty, you will only worry about nothing. Don't worry. Otherwise, I will not choose a new person this year?
In the harem, apart from you old friends who have been with me the longest and have given birth to many children for me, there are several beauties who have entered the palace one after another, and I haven’t even recognized all of their faces yet.”
Qin Zhi chuckled.
During these ten years, five concubines entered the harem, one of whom was a palace maid named Concubine Yan (satisfying the wish of a certain reader).
He didn't choose much.
"Your Majesty loves to joke with me. I dare not stop you from choosing a new person. No prince has been born in the palace for a long time."
Shen Ningyue frowned.
She suspected that it was because those concubines had no real friendship with her, and that was why all the children born to them were daughters despite her prayers.
But ten years ago, when all the concubines in the harem gave birth to princesses and none of them were princes, she no longer dared to pray randomly.
Fortunately, His Majesty already has twelve healthy and grown princes. Although she was confused, she was not obsessed with having a prince in the harem.
But I still have to mention it to Your Majesty.
"I know, I know. I don't care. So what if there is no new prince? Isn't it good now? I have twelve princes and twelve princesses, half of them are sons and half are daughters. It is twelve 'good' characters, with a balance of yin and yang, and equal weights of clear and turbid. I think it is good."
