Outside the commotion is in heat. It seems like the crown Prince and dingbat is challenging each other in a sword fight. After awhile an eunuch come running and request them to stop. "Crown Prince please don't hurt Prince Xian. His wedding will be soon. He can't be injured."
"Oh really? A sword fight can injured him? Not fit to lead an army."
" Please tomorrow the selected concubines will be coming into the palace to meet with the emperor and empress. Prince Xian needs to be in good shape. "
"Oh tomorrow. I want to see this. Will be fun. Isn't it my sister in law? I remember I told my princess I want to marry another woman. She flew in temper but later she is fine again. I think my princess enjoy watching me beding my other woman. She have her own ..."
"My crown Prince! What are you bubbling about?!"
"My princes, kindly please think of this little one." The eunuch bows deeply. The two royal brothers thus ends the night of play. Each retired back to their own palaces.
In the morning, the birds are chipping outside. He is out in the yard practising swinging his sword. I watch him in a distance from the bed. Today the new lady's will present themslves to him. I make up my mind last night not to interfere with anything. As long as one of them gives birth to a son, my freedom with be right at that corner.
In the afternoon shortly after lunch, the first lady is announced. Her name is Zheng Yi Ling. She is tall, taller than me. She have a pair of big round eyes, full lips with wide hip and of course a large bosomed chest. She is the daughter of a lower ranking scholar. Zheng Yi Ling is well verse in poems and play the pipa well enough. She present a small painting of a mountain. Which she claim that she had drew herself and wrote the poem on it. She said that she admired men like Prince Xian. She is wiling to be a concubine to have children with him.
The empress is delighted to see Zheng Yi Ling's full figure. She asked the royal nanny to check the lady health conditions. They went off to another room. While a other lady has arrived. Her name is Han Jiang Mei.
Han Jiang Mei is the daughter of a royal merchant. She is petit in size, small eyes and a present smile. She have a heavy bosomed too but lack of a fleshy bottom. She present the finest silk and brocade for the royal family. Another royal nanny appear and lead her away to check her health conditions.
The final lady appear ten minutes later. Her name is Shen Ming Lan. She is the daughter of minster of rites. She is about my height with dark eyes and full lips. She wears an extreme exposed outfit to show her large juggle bosomed chest. Even though the empress is unhappy with it. She still asked the royal nanny who is standing aside to check Shen Ming Lan health conditions.
After Shen Ming Lan disappeared with the royal nanny. The empress looks at me. "Are you disappointed?" I shake my head. "They looks like those foxy that men like, isn't it? My son to breed with them will be easy. They look like able to give birth lots of children especially that Zheng Yi Ling. Her hips are wide enough for the children to come out."
"What if they ... "
"Simple. Get more woman for my son. You already know how good he is in bed. I'm sure as a Prince, he can get anyone in bed. How he does it. I don't care. We just need a son from him. "
The three nanny's comes back to report thy are all healthy. The empress order her precious son to meet up with them one at the time. While I am order to sit behind the screen to hear the conversation. I have decided that I should pretending to listen but actually not listening. If should he have an urge to bed them there and then so be it! I won't interfere.
I walk into the first room with an eunuch name Fang. Zheng Yi Ling is in the room and she courtesy as we walk past her to sit behind the screen. Sudden my hands turn cold and I tremble. I look down at my hands and moved them under my skirt. Sitting on them will make them feel warmer.
After awhile dingbat come in. He wears is usual dark outfit with gold thread embroidery. She courtesy and they both sit down. "Why do you want to marry me? Do you know you will be a concubine? "
"Yes I know. But there is a chance that I can be your official wife. "
"Even if I don't love you nor like you that much?"
"I believe if you see and know me everyday, you will grow to like me. Especially when your official wife is not able to give you what you need. I can give you, everything."
"What rumours have you been listening too? She can give me everything a woman can give."
Her eyes open wide. "She can't give you this kind of body. " she point to herself and touch her bosomed. From behind the screen I feel that she is trying to seduce ding bat. Of course that rigid man won't move. He stare at her silencely. Time seems to slowly move. She finally stands up. "Just tell me if you want to marry me. Even if there is no love between us I will try to get you to love me."
"If there is no love between us with this marriage will you go ahead?"
"You will love me eventually!"
He laugh and say firmly " unfortunately I only have one heart that heart has been taken by the love of my life. I only love her this life. Even if we don't have any children between us, I am still going to love her. You will just be a breeding tool for this royal family. I will never love you. Do you accept this conditions? "
