Wen Xiaotu knew that the child was older, so he didn't hide it, "My concubine...it's not that I can't take concubines."
After hearing this, Jin Shu's face shrank, and she couldn't help but whisper: "Why!" - She is already married to a princess, but she can still take a concubine?!
Wen Xiaotu coughed hurriedly and said seriously: "But the princess is the daughter of the heavenly family and has a high status. If you marry the princess, you should respect her and not take concubines at will."
Jin Shu was stunned and quickly asked: "What is 'not allowed to take concubines at will'?"
Wen Xiaotu looked straight and said, "To show respect for the royal family, after the prince-in-law marries the princess, he cannot take a concubine unless he is thirty years old and has no children."
Jin Shu lowered her head and murmured: "I am childless on my 30th year...that's it." As she said that, her delicate eyebrows frowned, obviously still not very satisfied.
Wen Xiaotu thought to himself that in this era, there are very few noble men who can persist in taking a concubine until they are thirty years old! It is the royal family that can be so strong and set such rules.
Wen Xiaotu added: "Even if there are no children at the age of thirty, the consort's family still needs to respect the princess, and the princess should decide who to choose as a concubine."
"Oh, I understand." Jin Shu sighed, like a little adult, "The prince's brother is so happy..." If you don't marry a wife, you will have a wife. If you marry the prince in the future, you can marry many more beauties.
concubine.
Ah no, there can’t be too many, too many… Mother seems to have said that the stinky brother can’t have more concubines than the father!
Jin Shu quickly counted on his fingers, Concubine Shu, Concubine De, Lu Xiuyi, Yu Chongrong, Jiang Jieyu, Lin Cairen, Cui Cairen - that is to say, the smelly brother can only have seven concubines at most, plus the crown prince.
That’s eight wives!
There are still many!
"It would be great if I were a man..." Then I could marry eight beauties who would serve me around, Jin Shu thought secretly and boldly in his mind.
Of course, she has had such random thoughts before.
If she were a man, with three wives and four concubines, embracing each other, her little life would be very beautiful just thinking about it!
The two female companions could not hide their envy at this moment. The princess of Daxuan was not as aggrieved as the princess of the Song Dynasty. Not only could she live alone in the palace, but she also did not have to serve her parents-in-law. Only when the consort was 30 years old and had no children could he ask the princess to make the decision.
One-room concubine...
Such a good thing is something that no woman in the world would dare to dream of, but the second princess still found it insufficient.
Only the direct princess dares to do this.
Du Xuanyan, who was in her prime, smiled tenderly, with a clear and sweet voice: "The status of a princess is respected, not only because she is the direct descendant of the queen, but she is also raised under the queen's lap. No matter who becomes the consort in the future, how can he not hold you in the palm of his hand?"
After hearing this, Jin Shu felt more comfortable.
Wen Xiaotu secretly glanced at this young lady from the Du family. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a sweet mouth. In contrast, Wen Ruoyu was particularly reticent. She would never take the initiative to speak if no questions were asked.
His temperament, at best, is called quiet and well-behaved; at worst, he is boring.
Of course, Wen Xiaotu doesn't dislike the quiet and sensible girl.
Jin Shu smiled beautifully: "Mother, I wonder what kind of woman the prince's brother will choose to be the prince's concubine in the future?"
Wen Xiaotu smiled bitterly: "Don't you know how high your brother's vision is? Needless to say, he has to have extraordinary looks, talents and virtues, and a gentle and considerate temperament. Oh, by the way, he still has to be
A girl who is the direct descendant of a wealthy family!"
Wen Ruoyu lowered her head. Apart from the fact that she was a direct descendant of a wealthy family, she had nothing to recommend her.
When Du Xuanyan heard the last word, she couldn't help but lower her head. The Du family was not a wealthy family, and she... was not a direct descendant. Her beautiful little face was extremely sad for a moment.
Princess Jinshu's face was filled with dark thoughts when she heard that. She couldn't help but stick out her tongue, "But my younger brother is the crown prince and the most noble man in the world besides my father, so I can't help but be picky."
Wen Xiaotu smiled and said: "You are also the most noble girl in the world. In the future, you can have a higher standard and choose a man who is the best in everything to be your consort."
Jin Shu sighed, I can choose a forehead that is the best in every aspect, but my brother can choose a bunch of women with good looks and good character to be wives...
At this moment, Jin Shu suddenly picked out a long-ago word in his mind - "face-shou".
She is no longer a child now. According to history books, Empress Wu Zetian had many facial heads, and the princesses of the Han and Tang Dynasties also kept facial heads. Although the female teacher refused to say it clearly, she could already guess what the facial heads were.
However, the female teachers taught her to stick to it till the end.
Jin Shu felt a little unconvinced, why could a man not "stick to it until the end"?!
Suddenly, Jin Shu thought of his father's concubines again... Her mother had stayed with her forever, but she could not exchange for her father's "lasting life". Compared with her mother, she was already much luckier.
Wen Xiaotu's eyes were gentle, "Just like your Jiashan sister, the Prince Consort's family respects her in every way, so she will live up to her expectations."
Jin Shu lowered her head and said "hmm" with a rather well-behaved expression. Then she turned to her two companions and said, "Cousin Ruoyu and Xuanyan, you two should go back first. I have to have dinner with my mother."
Go back again."
The two girls obediently said "yes" and left first.
Jin Shu then came close to Wen Xiaotu and nestled against her.
"What's going on today?" Wen Xiaotu casually touched his daughter's little head.
"Mother, in a few days, you will be twenty years old. My father is not young anymore. Please hurry up and have another child." Jin Shu whispered.
Wen Xiaotu couldn't help laughing: "You haven't forgotten this, and you still want me to give you a sister!"
Jin Shu shook his head: "No, I have changed my mind. Please give me a younger brother!"
Wen Xiaotu was stunned: "Don't you think your sister is more cute and well-behaved, while your brother is naughty and annoying?"
Jin Shu's voice was weak: "That's true, but... my father is the emperor, and he can have many concubines. Although my father is currently focused on you, what if... what if he changes his mind?"
With that said, Jin Shu hurriedly explained: "I'm not cursing the relationship between my father and you. I just think that you should have another son as soon as possible while my father's thoughts are on you."
Wen Xiaotu was startled suddenly, and then sighed, this child...has grown up.
She smiled softly and said, "Okay, Mom will give you a brother as soon as possible."
Jin Shu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but immerse himself in the beautiful thoughts of having a fat, white, cute little brother. His little face was full of expectations. He hoped that the future brother would be better behaved than the current brother...
