Since ancient times, emperors have had multiple concubines in addition to their queens, how could one marry just one person? Duanhua had never heard of this.
"Why not?" Yan Huisheng looked at her, "There are countless offspring in the Imperial Court. The Yan family does not lack descendants. If you can bear children, I will have children with you to inherit the country. If you can't bear children, we can simply adopt from the royal family."
Duanhua twitched at the corners of her mouth and blurted out, "I'm in excellent health. Since childhood, my mother has taken great care of me. I get examined by a physician on a monthly basis. There's no reason I can't have a child."
After saying this, her face turned red, and she hurriedly tried to cover it up, "No...I mean you have so many women in the Eastern Palace. With so many now, why wouldn't you have multiple concubines in the future?"
Yan Huisheng rubbed his temples and candidly confessed, "I've never touched those women."
