Chapter 192: Drilling into a Bull’s Horn is Futile
Apart from the official wives, Emperor Chu also appointed a concubine for each prince, including the eldest prince who has been married for over a year. Except for one being brought into the Eldest Imperial Prince Mansion in August, all other concubines will be brought in after the princes’ grand weddings next year.
Though Song Ci felt a bit uneasy about it, she didn’t complain too much. After all, this was ancient times, and more importantly, the imperial family, where marrying concubines was the norm.
"The imperial family is focusing on expanding their lineage."
Song Ci thought of Emperor Chu’s age, a few years older than Song Zhiyuan, yet without any grandchildren, he must indeed be anxious.
Surely after the princes’ grand weddings, having children will be their foremost duty. The first imperial grandchild, if a grandson, will be highly valued, and even a granddaughter will be exceptionally favored for being the first.
"Is the second girl still upset?" Song Ci looked at Nanny Gong.
Nanny Gong smiled and said, "After delivering the grand madam’s words, she began eating and drinking as usual."
Song Ci took a sip of tea and said, "That’s good, there’s no point in stubbornly overthinking. It’s pointless to worry."
