n250 Never Had a Son

nZhao Hongwei’s legs trembled, and he almost slipped off his chair.

n“If the marquis is not satisfied, you can also marry a few more concubines.” Concubine Fang looked at Zhao Hongwei.

nZhao Hongwei’s heart trembled. One night per person. He could only rest once on the 31st day of the month. Did not that mean that he would be squeezed dry every night?

n“No, no, no, no, no need. Don’t let anyone in.” Zhao Hongwei waved his hands nervously.

n“What rest time? The big sisters already have children. I’m the only childless one.” One of the concubines pouted. Zhao Hongwei was on the verge of tears. Back then, he must had been an idiot to bring in so many concubines.

nConcubine Mei’er’s eyes flickered. She was already nine months pregnant and was about to give birth. Her entire being became more and more refined, and the aura around her became more and more indifferent. “Mei ‘er can share two nights with the sisters.”

nThe concubine who had spoken just now laughed and looked at Zhao Hongwei with ill intentions. The emperor sighed outside the door. Zhao Hongwei did not have a good life.

nThe eunuch beside the emperor coughed and Zhao Hongwei turned around. He was stunned, “Your Majesty…” He knelt on the ground with a thud, snot and tears flowing. Someone had finally come to save him!

nThe concubines looked at each other. Although they were panicking, they managed to calm themselves down. Their expressions changed and they became delicate concubines. They knelt down one by one and their figures were enchanting. Zhao Hongwei’s heart ached when he saw this.

n“Alright, you all may leave. I have something to discuss with Zhao Hongwei.” The emperor waved his hand, and the concubines looked at each other and stood up.

n“Marquis, you have to treat His Majesty well. Don’t say anything that will anger His Majesty, or we won’t let you off.” Zhao Hongwei shivered at the sight of the concubines’ giggles. He shrunk his neck back and became as obedient as a quail.

nThe guard closed the door and stood guard outside. There was a person tied up in a sack on the ground, and he was not moving at all.

n“Your Majesty, please take a seat. Why are you here? What did Zhao Ruifeng, that unfilial son, do at the border that Your Majesty has come over? Or is it that Your Majesty is worried about my daughter-in-law?” Zhao Hongwei was only an idle marquis now. Ever since Zhao Ruifeng had taken control of the army, he had never been placed in an important position by the emperor. However, he had never been put in an important position. The only important position he had was when he raided all the brothels in Jing City, because he was the one who knew the most about brothels in the entire Jing City.

nThe emperor looked at Zhao Ruifeng and sneered, “I remember that you only have one son, Zhao Ruifeng, right?”

nZhao Hongwei’s brows were gloomy. “Yes, this minister was probably too heartless in the past, and this may be retribution. Back then, Xiao Meili and I were in love with each other, and Zhao Ruifeng’s mother was too jealous. I didn’t expect Xiao Meili to anger Zhao Ruifeng’s mother to death after just a few words with her.”

nZhao Hongwei had probably regretted it before, but he was never one to admit his mistakes. The emperor glanced at Zhao Hongwei. Was he really in love with Xiao Meili?

n“Untie that bag.” The emperor’s tone was as cold as ice.

nZhao Hongwei was taken aback. For some reason, he felt a chill run down his spine. At the emperor’s signal, he untied the bag, “Oh my God…” Zhao Hongwei shrieked in fear and fell to the ground, his expression changing.

n“This… Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my condolences.” Zhao Hongwei immediately knelt on the ground, tears and snot flowing out, “Your Majesty, you must restrain your grief. You are the king of a country. You must take care of your dragon body, Your Majesty…” Zhao Hongwei was in tears. This was the only crown prince left in their country, and he was gone just like that…

nWho knew that the emperor was not sad at all. He looked at Zhao Hongwei coldly and said, “I have never had a son, let alone a crown prince…” The emperor muttered to himself, then he paused. “Back then, the empress gave birth to a daughter, but she conspired with people outside the palace without permission to get a crown prince and get the princess out of the palace. This fake crown prince was switched over in Happy Town back then…”

nThe emperor’s finger tapped on the round wooden table, his eyes lowered so that no one could see his expression. Zhao Hongwei was stunned. He had always thought the reason why the empress was on such good terms with Xiao Meili was because Xiao Meili had saved the crown prince when he was kidnapped. She used her own child to save the crown prince. The crown prince had been sent to the palace after that.
