Chapter 310 She, Lu Xinran, is a dedicated person~
When Lu Xinran and the empress dowager and others arrived at the front hall, Song Junyan and others had already entered the hall.
When the princes saw the empress dowager, they all stood up and bowed to her. The empress dowager smiled warmly, and the scrutiny in her eyes was obvious as she looked at them.
Among these guys...which one has the most delicious melon?
Song Junhua and the others felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at by the Queen Mother, and they all took a step back in fear.
When the emperor entered the room and saw this scene, he smiled and stepped forward to support the empress dowager's arm.
"Why didn't your mother wait for your son to go to Yongshou Palace to invite you?"
"It's only a few steps. My old bones can still handle it."
The emperor helped the man away, which made the people who had just been stared at by the empress dowager all breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as they are not the ones who are unlucky, they don’t mind being a spectator. After all, this kind of family dinner is very boring.
Lu Xinran walked to Song Junyan's side and asked him what happened after he entered the palace.
Song Junyan gave her a subtle look, then glanced at Eunuch Fu who was following behind the emperor.
Lu Xinran understood what he meant and immediately asked the system to save Eunuch Fu's booklet.
"Host, this Eunuch Fu's booklet also requires life points to be exchanged. It takes a year to survive for one day."
Lu Xinran was a little surprised. He was treated the same as the emperor? !
"Save it. Since it costs life points, the content must be very important."
"But host, you have used up a lot of your health points during this period, and you don't have much health left."
It was originally saved for several decades, but not only has there been less melons to eat during this period, but preserving the booklets of Su Hongyu, the previous emperor and others has consumed life points, and now there are only a dozen years left.
Lu Xinran pursed her lips. Even if her family was not wealthy, she had to keep this booklet.
"The relationship between Song Junhua and Song Junyu, has the life value of this melon not been calculated yet?"
"Yes, but according to experience, we should wait until one of the parties reaches a conclusion. Given the current situation, I'm afraid you won't be able to make it to the settlement."
Lu Xinran was speechless. "The New Year is coming soon. I will catch a few unlucky bugs and replenish my health first."
The system reminded her like this because it was afraid that she would neglect to eat melons. After hearing her say this, the system immediately went to load the booklet with peace of mind.
Song Junyan took advantage of the cover of his long sleeves to pull her hand and squeeze it gently.
He heard clearly the conversation between her and the system just now. Fortunately, he immediately glanced at everyone in the hall to confirm that no one else had overheard the conversation except him.
After the Emperor and the Empress Dowager took their seats, a quarter of an hour later the Empress and her concubines arrived.
The emperor never had a good face towards the empress dowager, but today's family dinner was on New Year's Eve and he didn't want to lose face for the empress, so he just nodded expressionlessly and motioned for them to take a seat.
The Empress Dowager was too lazy to pay attention to the Emperor's expression. As soon as the Queen and others came in, her eyes immediately wandered over the faces of the concubines.
The emperor suddenly felt a headache, his good mother!
These are all his concubines!
If Lu Xinran really found out something, he might be the protagonist.
He didn't want Lu Xinran to find out that he had visited his concubines before offering sacrifices to the heavens, and even used drugs to enhance his pleasure...
Lu Xinran went to the palace today originally for Eunuch Fu's booklet, but after the system reminder just now, and seeing the emperor's fleeting guilt and discomfort, she immediately wanted to eat melons.
It takes interest to eat other people's melons, but not the emperor's.
She just wanted to trample on the emperor's face again and again out of evil taste.
[The emperor looks so ugly, why does he look like he has overindulged himself? ]
[Well, no, it's just that I've been eating vegetarian food these past few days and my face is pale.]
[However, is the emperor so weak? In order to have a good time before going to the Heavenly Sacrifice, he even took aphrodisiacs when visiting his concubines. Tsk, he even took two pills.]
[How bad is this? The imperial physician has repeatedly emphasized that aphrodisiacs should not be used frequently or excessively, but you have to take two pills at a time.]
[Isn't it inhumane not to eat it? 】
This rhetorical question made everyone in the hall who could hear the emperor's thoughts unable to help but look at the emperor's lower body.
The emperor's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot in an instant, and just as he was about to scold, the voice that made him love and hate it appeared again.
[I have been taking this aphrodisiac for several years! ]
[Before, I only needed to take it once every few times, then I had to take it every time, and now I need to take at least two pills at a time, and the time is also...]
Everyone: "..."
So how long does it take? Is there a stick of incense?
The Queen Mother was worried about her son because he had eaten the melon.
If you take too much of this aphrodisiac, it will drain your body.
"Emperor."
The Queen Mother opened her mouth, and immediately swallowed back the words she wanted to persuade: "Today is not a family dinner, how can you, as a father, get close to the children and talk to them properly."
The emperor gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I have been busy for a whole year and it is rare for me to have some free time. Let's have a good chat as a family today."
He glared at Song Junyan as a warning, signaling him to keep a close eye on the people around him.
Lu Xinran lowered his head and pretended not to notice the weirdness in the hall, and continued to flip through the emperor's booklet quickly.
Although she had loaded the emperor's booklet before, due to limited time and energy, she did not have time to read the emperor's childhood.
This was a rare opportunity, so she had to take a good look and see what the late emperor was thinking after he moved him to the empress dowager's side.
【strangeness……】
Just as I turned to the year when the emperor was one year old, I felt someone grabbing my arm hard.
She immediately collected her thoughts and painfully asked the system to save the emperor's booklet at the cost of her life points.
The emperor and the empress dowager looked at her together, and when they saw that she was silent after saying these two words, they withdrew their gazes with complicated expressions.
For the entire night, everyone in the hall was in fear, fearing that they would become the protagonist in the voices that appeared from time to time.
But Lu Xinran was very focused that night, and her only target for eating melons was the emperor.
[The emperor probably doesn't know that if he takes too much of that aphrodisiac, his body will be hollowed out. Every time he takes it, his body will become weaker. If he continues to take it for a while, he will probably be no different from an old man in his seventies or eighties.]
[Moreover, this medicine will kill sperm. The fact that very few concubines in the palace have become pregnant in the past two years has already proved this point.]
[However, he has worked hard over the years and has more than 20 sons without help from others, so he doesn't need to have more. ]
[More than 20 princes, when they grow up, not only will the mansions in the capital not be enough to give them as royal palaces, will the territory of the Great Chu be enough to give them as fiefdoms? ]
[By then, they will all be fiefs, all vassal kings, each guarding one side, tsk. ]
It’s so lively.
emperor:"……"
Who said that all princes would be given fiefs?
He swept his gaze over Song Junyu sternly. Starting from this son, no subsequent princes would be granted fiefs after they came of age.
