Xu Erya realized only after entering Prince Shun's inner courtyard that being one of the women in the harem was nowhere as comfortable as being a strategist for Prince Shun.
She was entangled in harem struggles and barely able to look after herself, let alone have the mind to devise strategies for Prince Shun.
But she had already become Prince Shun's woman, and it was too late to have second thoughts now.
Xu Erya could only grit her teeth and forge ahead.
After bringing down several concubines, she started to take good care of herself, hoping to bear a son for Prince Shun to rely on in the future.
Strangely enough, among all of Prince Shun's women, despite having many children, they were all daughters, not a single son.
Prince Shun was also in a state of desperation; in order to have a son, he kept adding women to his harem, but the more he added, the fewer the chances of having a son.
