Your Majesty, please do not disturb, the empress only wants to engage in business

Chapter 148: Light and Dark Lines

In the harem, apart from pleasing the emperor, there is actually very little that women can do.

After all, even if one has the ability, it is difficult to have room to display it. Yao Jinse thought for a long time before coming up with a novel invention that could be used. The only purpose of this invention was to make Xie Yun'an successfully remember her, and at the same time, she got the title that she should have received long ago.

Apart from that, he didn't even get any more rewards.

Xie Yun'an is such a person at heart. He praises those he likes and divides those he doesn't like into two types based on whether they are useful or not. Useful people can still get some position in his eyes, but useless people, let alone gaining his respect, even if they want to get a little attention from him, it all depends on his mood.

Fortunately, these women in the harem can finally be classified as useful ones. At least they can help Xie Yun'an gain some good reputation. Treating concubines well is also a merit of the emperor, but that's all.

People with cold hearts are always cold, just like no one can turn ice into heat. The same goes for Xie Yun'an. Maybe he can be considered a good emperor, but he is not really a good husband - maybe in the eyes of Concubine Rong, she herself is an exception.

But Yao Jinse understood this very well, so in the harem, the person she was most wary of was not anyone else, but Emperor Xie Yun'an. Ever since her rebirth, all she had been thinking about was how to survive in this world, and she had never thought about competing with others for the so-called love. A man's love is not such a valuable thing, even the emperor's.

But she also understood that in the eyes of others, the truth of what he did would definitely not be what she thought in her own mind. Few women in the harem could let go of the word "favor", and they would do anything to win favor. The reason for this was nothing more than the vassalage, money and power brought by the imperial power, which could blind people.

And is it really true that Xie Yun'an, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was not aware of this?

He grew up in the harem and had an unfathomable mind. He was able to protect himself among the previous emperor's sons for so many years and finally stood with his mother to the end. He can never be said to be a pure and innocent white lotus.

Only those young girls in later generations who are not well-versed in the world would think that the emperor is the victim of imperial power. In fact, he is the one sitting in the position of the perpetrator, enjoying supreme power and wealth.

But precisely because of this, Xie Yun'an doesn't care about the struggles in the harem.

He knew what the women were fighting for, and instead of getting involved, he would rather just sit back and watch, since it wouldn't do him any harm anyway.

But if she did as Yao Jinse said, Yao Jinse herself was actually undecided. It was unclear whether this idea would be approved by Xie Yun'an. Everything depended on Concubine Rong's face.

But since Concubine Rong wants to have a child so much, she should try her best to make it happen.

In fact, Yao Jinse's idea was very simple. Concubine Rong had no elders in her family, nor any close female relatives. The old Duke's wife passed away two years ago, and the concubines in the Duke's Mansion were naturally not qualified to enter the palace. And as Concubine Rong herself said, letting the female relatives of the Duke of Qi's Mansion enter the palace would easily attract attention, and this matter might not be able to be concealed from the outside world.

So I can only rely on Yao Jinse.

To be exact, it was Yao Jinse's family. Although the Yao family was not prominent outside, they were still a family of officials. With their daughter giving birth to a princess in the harem, even if they did not get rich, at least they would be able to rise. For a family like this, the female relatives of the family were still somewhat qualified to pay respects in the palace.

Not to mention this matter, if Concubine Rong can do it well, she will definitely be able to win the hearts of a group of people.

In the harem, everything is closely related to the word power. Concubine Rong herself is quite powerful because of the emperor's favor. If she wins over a wave of people's hearts, there will definitely be many people in the harem who are willing to board her ship.

As soon as Yao Jinse left Chengqian Palace, Concubine Rong had already started to arrange people: "Nuandong, did you hear what Concubine Lin said clearly?"

Nuandong nodded in agreement. She knew how important this matter was to her queen. Moreover, when it came to passing the message to the Duke's Mansion, they in Chengqian Palace had their own methods.

"The way you passed the message before might have some risks," Nanny Kang was more careful about this matter. As the saying goes, an old man in the family is like a treasure. She had stayed in the harem longer, so she knew that nothing was foolproof. But she still had to be careful. "Your Highness passed the message outside before. The Emperor and the Empress Dowager may not be unaware of this. When she was in the palace, it was easy to do these things. Now it is inconvenient in the palace. If you reveal your true intentions, you might cause trouble. It is better to be careful."

Although Chen Yimiao is not very willing to think for herself on weekdays, she is still very willing to listen to what people around her say when she is in a good mood, not to mention this matter. It is the most important thing in her mind now, so it is not too careful.

"In that case, let me leave this matter to you, Madam. You must do it as soon as possible."

Nanny Kang nodded and went down to deal with it.

In order to make his daughter live more comfortably in the palace and to facilitate the spread of messages inside and outside, the Duke of Qi's Mansion planted many secret lines in the harem when the battle for the throne was settled. Chengqian Palace usually does not guard against others when passing messages to the outside world. If they had to be on guard against everything, it would be too tiring.

Therefore, when the imperial concubine was in a good mood and wanted to talk to her family about some unimportant household matters, these channels would serve as the means of delivering messages. However, if there was something really important, those channels that might be known to others would be completely useless.

You need to be careful.

In fact, in the eyes of Nanny Kang, Yao Jinse's idea was a good one, but there were two difficulties that needed to be solved.

The first thing is to find a female doctor who is good at gynecology, which is not an easy task. There are such people in the capital, but female doctors who are known by aristocratic families are not candidates for entering the palace.

It would not be good if the news leaked out or outsiders knew about this matter.

Therefore, the person had to be selected from as far away a place as possible and brought to the capital as soon as possible. Another thing was that a way had to be found to send the person to the Yao family and have Yao Jinse's mother bring him into the palace without attracting attention.

Only in this way can we be sure of success.
