Chapter 259 The crying little queen mother (39)
"Recently, the subject countries provided some items, but it was useless for me to ask for them, so I brought them to you."

Xia Jingyan strode to the side and sat down, and the palace attendant beside him came in carrying a box.

Opening the box, there were satin cloths of various colors and some jewelry.

Daxia's treasury was still full. Although the late emperor was obsessed with alchemy for several years, he was not stupid enough to squander the contents of the treasury. So now these jewelry are perfect for giving to others.

Lin Yan blinked. For someone who had never seen the world, these things were enough to make her eyes light up. But after being a queen mother for so long, she has seen delicacies from mountains and seas, as well as gold, silver and jewelry, so she will not be greedy for these things.

She was just surprised and wondered why the emperor was so kind to her.
"Your Majesty, why are you so kind to the Ai family?" After thinking about it, he asked.

Now her task is not that difficult. There is no concubine in the palace, so there is no situation where she knows who is third and third best. And in this case, her occasional straight shots can also promote the development of the relationship.

If he doesn't understand his own feelings, she will let him understand.

Besides, worldly opinions don't matter to him. As long as you pass his level, the subsequent progress will be smoother.

Xia Jingyan was stunned by what she asked. He was stuck for a moment and couldn't answer. After two seconds of silence, he said in a normal tone: "I am free to treat whomever I want to be good to."

If others pay attention, they can see his erratic eyes, which is caused by a guilty conscience.

The tyrant in the eyes of the world is now like a fool, a little honest and a little silly.

Unfortunately, no one dared to look directly at the holy face, so no one paid attention.

Lin Yan curled her lips, reached out and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Every move she made was dignified and elegant. It seemed that she had achieved these etiquettes to the extreme, which was very pleasing to the eye.

But then she heard her say: "The emperor is a caring person. I hope that in the future, when the concubine enters the palace, she will also gain the emperor's pity."

Xia Jingyan was still a little unsure of his direction, but when he heard these words, he suddenly sobered up. He looked at her with burning eyes, trying to see any flaw in her face.

It's a pity that he didn't, that face is still outstanding, and those eyes are still clear, as if he is caring about a family member, and has no other thoughts.

His heart suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him, and his heart felt cold. But he couldn't explain what it felt like, which made him a little irritable for a while.

"What did the Queen Mother say? When did I have a concubine enter the palace? Why didn't I know?" Who is secretly trying to insert a woman for him?

No, he firmly refused!
"What did the emperor say? The Ai family just sighed. After all, the harem cannot always be empty. There will always be new people coming in." Lin Yan skimmed the foam in the tea cup and looked at her concerned look. It really seemed like she cared. The elder of the younger generation.

Even if you don't draft now, you will still have to draft in the future.

The royal family's responsibility is not only to take care of this country, but also to think about the future of this country. A country cannot live without a king for a day, so in order to continue the royal family, it must have heirs.

Spreading branches and leaves is not only the task of the concubine, but also the task of the emperor.

For some reason, Xia Jingyan's face gradually turned gloomy. He looked at the little queen mother with an unkind expression, but saw that she was in a pretty good mood. No, if he is in a bad mood, then she must be in a bad mood too.

"Does the Queen Mother think that she can control me?" What kind of concubine did Hao Duan Duan mention? He didn't want to marry a concubine yet.

"What did the emperor say? When did the Ai family have such intention?" The little queen mother frowned slightly and looked over with a worried expression.

It was originally a very simple topic, but why did it seem to be a bit of a conspiracy?
"You usually listen to music to recuperate, why did you suddenly bring up such a topic? Could it be that someone whispered something in your ear? If you dare to influence the Queen Mother's thinking, if I find out, he will be cut to pieces Go!”

These words were a bit cold. He was not as calm as when he arrived, but instead felt a bit like a storm was about to come.

After so many years of ups and downs in the harem, how could he not know that when there are too many women in the harem, problems will easily arise.

There are so many women vying for a man's favor, even going so far as to frame their own sisters, just to get that man to take a look at them. This kind of life is extremely sad and boring.

He didn't want his harem to become so messy. What if one day they used poison on him? How can he trust so many people on his pillow?
Instead of guarding against here and there every day, it is better to solve everything directly from the root cause. Wouldn’t it be solved if we don’t accept the concubine?

The emperor married a concubine not for love, but to stabilize his throne.

But he doesn't want to be fought over by so many women. He needs to use women to stabilize his position. That is incompetence as an emperor. As long as everyone in the court has checks and balances, why is there so much nonsense?

Lin Yan seemed to be frightened by him. She pursed her lips and didn't know what to say. Her lips opened and closed, making no sound. The eyes were red again, looking like a wounded deer.

"Since ancient times, the emperor has to marry a concubine, and if he doesn't marry a concubine, he must have a queen. The queen gives birth to children for the royal family, so that someone can inherit the throne. The Ai family is just conveying the words of those ministers. That's all." She pursed her lips and looked a little unconvinced.

Xia Jingyan almost laughed at her. The harem was not allowed to interfere in politics. Could it be that those ministers were out of their minds? You actually handed me the coupon here?
"Queen Mother, don't worry about things that shouldn't be done, do you understand?"

"Aijia understands." She lowered her head, looking a little frustrated.

"Well, it's not your fault." He sighed again, "Don't take what those ministers say in the future to heart. Just be your queen mother, and I will take care of the rest. "

She was just a powerless little queen mother. If she didn't have his protection in this palace, how could she be so leisurely?

She can't be blamed for this. If we are to blame, we can only blame the ministers of the previous dynasty.

The atmosphere had reached this point, and Xia Jingyan had no intention of staying any longer. After some warnings, he did not sit down again, but stood up and left.

And why did he come here in the first place? Well, I forgot about it.

"The Queen Mother really shouldn't say this in front of the Emperor. The Emperor seems to have no such thoughts." Mother Liu couldn't help but muttered.

Lin Yan touched the edge of the teacup and ignored her lecture. She just said to herself, "The tea has cooled down. Let's make some more tea."
