Chapter 878 Helping you arrange a marriage
The next evening, Li Bowen resigned after finishing his work day, and Zhou Xu had piled up a lot of documents waiting for him to review while he was away. Now I am consciously working overtime, working an extra hour every day, and slowly finishing all the accumulated work.
"Your Majesty."
Huo Qubing should have finished all his work, but Li Bowen has been gone for more than ten minutes, and he still has no intention of leaving. This is obviously Something happened.
“Speak directly if you have something to say.”
Zhou Xu didn't even raise his head during the whole process. As he spoke, he took a new document and flipped through it quickly.
In response, Huo Qubing opened his mouth a few times, but no sound came out. It was somewhat difficult to speak.
But when he thought about the country and the state of Zhou Dynasty, Huo Qubing still had to bite the bullet and speak...
"Wei Chen wants to ask your majesty to favor the concubines in the harem and the maidens in Guangdong. The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty is blooming!"
Zhou Xu moved his hands for a moment, and at the same time, his eyes finally moved away from the document and fell on Huo Qubing below, and then he laughed.
"Li Bowen asked you to give advice?"
Hearing this, Huo Qubing hesitated.
"Not really, it's Wei Chen's own idea."
"Fart!"
Zhou Xu spit out the word angrily, scaring Huo Qubing to the point of immediately Kneel down on the ground.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
"You don't even have a wife, how can you think of this?!"
Huo Qubing always felt weird hearing His Majesty's words. , but still tell the truth at this time.
"Master Li did mention this matter, but Wei Chen did agree with it. Therefore, it is Wei Chen's own decision to come to advise His Majesty."
Zhou Xu's heart Speechless.
[I said that Li Bowen, in the past, always waited for me to get off work, for fear of moving too fast, which would make me think there was something wrong with his work attitude. But today he left work so quickly. So he was waiting for me here? 】
Looking at the speechless expression on His Majesty’s face, Huo Qubing gained courage and continued to speak...
“For Da Zhou, His Majesty’s family affairs are also national affairs. Although His Majesty is in his prime, if he has not given birth to a prince for a long time, how can the country be stable? "
Huo Qubing said this because he was afraid that he would suddenly belch one day.
When the time comes, he will have no children and the Zhou Dynasty will have no heir, and he will surely fall into huge turmoil. In serious cases, it may even directly lead to the split of the country.
He is young now, so he doesn't have to establish a prince, but there must be a prince, right?
This is really a major event that affects his country and the country, and Zhou Xu cannot refute it.
He has struggled with lifespan before, but he has recently made a breakthrough in this area.
That is to become an extraordinary being!
You know, as extraordinary beings, the elves can live for thousands of years!
In addition, the lifespan of extraordinary creatures far exceeds that of humans.
If he cultivates into an extraordinary life, his natural life span will be greatly improved.
But increased life span does not mean immortality.
What if you get terminally ill? Or, more simply, get chopped with a knife!
Faced with this situation, no matter how long the natural life span is, it will not work.
Although he is a time-traveler, in this world, time-travelers are not a rare thing. At the same time, he does not think that he is an immortal body that is absolutely immortal.
This was one of the reasons why he agreed to take in concubines before. He also believed that he needed a descendant to inherit the territory of Dazhou after his death and allow Dazhou to continue to develop and grow.
On the matter of descendants, Zhou Xude admitted that he has indeed been a little slack recently. He is often away from the palace and goes out for several months. Even when he is in the palace, he is often busy with research. True words, but not completely unfavored concubine.
In addition, when he just accepted his concubine, he was quite diligent. But even so, pregnancy is a matter of probability. What can he do if she never gets pregnant?
As for the selection of girls and the expansion of the harem, forget it. He really doesn't have that much energy to worry about it now.
"Okay, you two just handle your business every day, and don't worry about things you shouldn't worry about."
At this point, Zhou Xu's voice paused.
"Speaking of which, you are quite old now. If you are really that free, I will go back and arrange marriage for you and find you something to do. Okay, go back."
said Regardless of Huo Qubing's reaction, he directly signaled the other party to stand down.
At the same time, outside the palace gate...
After leaving Qinzheng Palace, Li Bowen certainly would not go back home immediately.
Although he is not extremely smart, he is not a fool either. As long as Huo Qubing mentions this matter, His Majesty will definitely know that it was him who signaled it, so it is better to wait outside for the result.
No, as soon as Huo Qubing came out, he was immediately pulled to the side and asked about it.
“What did your Majesty say?”
"Your Majesty said that he wants to arrange a marriage for me. Which young lady are you talking about about His Majesty's marriage? No, I have to go back and prepare quickly."
"..."
After saying that, Huo Qubing got on the carriage and left without caring about the confused Li Bowen.
The next day at work, in the Qinzheng Palace, Li Bowen felt his Majesty's gaze on him, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a gleam on his back, and like a lump in his throat.
“Bowen.”
"Hey!"
"I heard that you have been quite free recently?"
Li Bowen instantly shook his head like a rattle.
"Not idle, not idle at all! Wei Chen suddenly remembered that there are two field workers who have to run today, so let's set off! Oh, I am really busy!"
Finished He ran away immediately.
Being together for a long time gradually increased Li Bowen's loyalty, and at the same time, he gradually lost his initial awkwardness.
But when it’s time to give in, you still have to give in.
Looking at Li Bowen's back as if he was running for his life, Zhou Xu also felt funny.
From the perspective of stabilizing their country and the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is completely reasonable for the ministers to urge their majesty to give birth to an imperial heir as soon as possible, and there is no need to be timid at all.
But considering that Li Bowen’s daughter is Concubine Shu, his identity is a bit inappropriate.
If Zhou Xu wants to go online, it can even be said that he has ulterior motives.
It is impossible for Li Bowen to be unaware of this. Although he used Huo Qubing's mouth to avoid suspicion, it was impossible to hide it from him with this small trick.
Li Bowen did it even though he knew he could guess it. The starting point was probably for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji.
But it is unrealistic to say that he has no selfish motives at all. It can only be said that he is involved in a serious matter with some personal affairs.
However, considering that Li Bowen has made it clear that he has taken a stand, thanked guests behind closed doors in the mansion, and drawn a clear line with the members of the old party parties, Zhou Xu will not argue with him about this trivial matter.
The morning work came to an end temporarily, and just when Zhou Xu was about to stretch his muscles a little, a soldier ran in quickly.
"Your Majesty, those giant eagle eggs have hatched!"
If nothing else, there will be more updates after 10:30
