A brilliant plan

Seeing Lu Xiufu and the others expressing their opinions, Zhao Dongting slapped his palms on the table and said heavily: "Okay, then this matter will be settled!"

As he said that, he ordered the eunuch who was serving next to him: "Go and invite General Liu Hongyi and Liu!"

The eunuch took the order and left.

Xi Yi sat on the chair, looked at Lu Xiufu and others, then at Zhao Dongting, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I want to report something."

Seeing his desire to speak but stop, Zhao Dongting said curiously: "What's the matter?"

Xi Yi's face was a little strange, "This... Before I came to the palace, the people gathered outside the county government office to write letters from all people, asking the emperor to take concubines and give birth to children for the people of the world, in order to continue forever."

Zhao Dongting was stunned.

Lu Xiufu and others had different expressions.

Book of the People?

Please accept my concubine?

Zhao Dongting was stunned for a while before saying, "Why do they ask me to accept a concubine?"

Xi Yi said: "However, maybe it's because the emperor encourages childbirth. The emperor should set an example for the emperor as the emperor."

When Lu Xiufu and others heard Xi Yi's words, they suddenly stood up and bowed together and said, "Please ask the emperor to take a concubine and give birth to a son, so as to ensure that all ages."

Zhao Dongting looked at them with deep eyes. At this moment, he finally realized something was wrong.

They were like rehearsing.

Think about it again, even if children are encouraged, the people still dare to take care of the emperor's family?

After pondering, Zhao Dongting said, "You are the instructed by the Queen Mother, right?"

Lu Xiufu and his friends bowed their bodies lower, and Lu Xiufu said: "The emperor is old and the emperor is the age to accept concubines. The act of accepting concubines is a blessing for the country."

They did not deny it, it was obvious that it was really instructed by Concubine Yang.

Zhao Dongting was amused and cried. Unexpectedly, Concubine Yang Shu had even come up with such a way to force him to accept the concubine. Not only did she join hands with the court officials, but she also encouraged the people to create momentum.

After all, she is a woman who once ruled the country from behind the scenes. Her thinking is not comparable to ordinary women.

But Zhao Dongting also knew very well that Yang Shufei was all because of her maternal love, and she had absolutely no disadvantage to him.

Since she no longer ruled behind the scenes, she was just a mother who always cared about her children.

Clamping his eyebrows with distress, Zhao Dongting said, "The situation is chaotic at this time, and the Song Dynasty is not yet prosperous. I really have no intention of accepting a concubine. Let's discuss this matter later!"

But Lu Xiufu and the others also really hoped that Zhao Dongting would accept a concubine, and immediately said, "Is it because the emperor plans to wait until the revival of our Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Dongting said: "This is not good?"

Lu Xiufu said anxiously: "Emperor, the day of retreating from the Yuan Dynasty is still far away. The emperor can wait, but the officials and the people can't wait..."

Zhao Dongting wondered: "What can't you and the people do?"

Lu Xiufu replied: "There are wars and chaos. Only after the emperor takes the concubine and gives birth to a son can we and the people feel at ease..."

He said this implicitly, but Zhao Dongting could hear it.

In this era, the family is still the world, and the Zhao family is the master of this world. Lu Xiufu meant that if Zhao Dongting had a descendant, even if Zhao Dongting had an accident, the Song Dynasty would not be destroyed, and the people could feel at ease.

Zhao Dongting also understood very well that Concubine Yang Shufu and Lu Xiufu were both considering the Song Dynasty and putting good intentions.

However, his heart was completely concerned with Le Chan in Baicao Valley.

Although most of the time when taking concubines now are selected from Zhang Ru, Ying Er, Yue Wu and Yun Jin, the most likely one is Zhang Ru or Yun Jin, Zhao Dongting’s relationship with them is far from developing to that point. Ying Er is a maid and the two are close, but Zhao Dongting does not love Ying Er, and he treats Yue Wu as his sister.

Yun Jin, speaking of it, she didn't spend long time with Zhao Dongting, and the two of them seemed to be friends who relieved each other's loneliness and told their worries.

This feeling is like a netizen in modern society.

Not to mention Zhang Ru, she had only known Zhao Dongting for a short time. Even though she was extremely beautiful, Zhao Dongting would not fall in love with her now.

In fact, when you truly love someone, it will be difficult to accept other people.

Even though Yun Jin, Zhang Ru and the others are all very beautiful, Zhao Dongting does not want to marry a woman he doesn't love.

Appreciation, recognition, love, and love are all different things.

Perhaps it was because he had suffered emotional injuries in his previous life, so he seemed particularly stubborn about this aspect.

If someone else travels over here, he will probably refuse anyone like this. Even if Zhao Dongting is not hurt by love, he will be the same.

Who thinks there are too many beauties?

Which man has never dreamed of sleeping with a big bed and three thousand in the harem?

Looking at the earnest eyes of Lu Xiufu and the others, Zhao Dongting was silent for a long time. He was thinking about how to push this matter over.

After thinking about it, Zhao Dongting could only talk about his age and said, "I am still young and I am not even as old as a private marriage, so why should I be anxious?"

There was a clear rule in the Song Dynasty that a man married at fifteen and a woman married at thirteen, and Zhao Dongting was not yet this age.

But Lu Xiufu said: "The emperor is the true dragon emperor, so he is naturally different from the people. Moreover, there are many people who are still young but marrying each other. The emperor is regarded as a role model for the people."

A man marries at fifteen, and a woman marries at thirteen means that a man should marry at the age of fifteen, and a woman should get married at the age of thirteen. In this era, there are only regulations on the age limit for marriage. No matter how young you are, there is no problem with getting married. There are child brides everywhere in the folk, and there are little dads and mothers everywhere.

This is true for the people, and the royal family is naturally even more exaggerated.

There are many men in the royal family who have been in the side room under ten years old.

Some people, although they get married late, have favored maids before they get married, or have special women who teach them sexual intercourse by themselves and have mature sexual experience.

Take King Guang Zhao Bing as an example. He has now taken the favor of marrying the side princess.

Zhao Dongting was stopped by Lu Xiufu's words. Obviously, just talking about his age is not enough to make them give up persuading Zhao Dongting to accept a concubine.

After a while, Zhao Dongting said: "Actually, I am not unwilling to accept a concubine, but I want to marry my beloved woman. Do you understand?"

Lu Xiufu asked in confusion: "The emperor already has a woman he likes? Since that's the case, why not summon her into the palace to be a concubine?"

Zhao Dongting smiled bitterly: "I have concerns, and it will take some years before I can marry her into the palace."

Seeing that Zhao Dongting was talking in a general way, Lu Xiufu and the others did not dare to ask in detail, but said, "Didn't the emperor plan to marry other concubines before this?"

Zhao Dongting sighed and shook his head, not knowing how to explain.

The education he received was different from this era. It was difficult for him to accept getting married to a woman he didn't love.

Respecting each other is not what he wants. When he comes here, he wants to pursue sweet love.
