The ruthless emperor in the late Ming Dynasty forced Chongzhen to abdicate at the beginning

Chapter 264 What I want most is not getting it.

But the red lady didn't know Zhu Cihong's true thoughts, and seeing it for the sake of it, he was still considering Liu Rushi's feelings, and he made up his mind that he must let His Majesty see clearly Liu Rushi's true face, not what he thought. so-so.

Immediately, neither of them mentioned this matter again. Zhu Cihong was afraid that Hong Niang would misunderstand in the future, so he began to talk to her about the rectification and standardization work of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

At this time, Hong Niangzi's whole mind was on Zhu Cihong, her mind was pure, she didn't think about herself at all, the two of them talked until evening, and then they left the imperial study.

After dinner, the red lady did not take a bath with Zhu Cihong this time.

In the huge bathroom, Zhu Cihong closed his eyes tightly, and leaned on the huge wooden barrel with a face of enjoyment, and the maids who served him had already been sent out.

After a long while, a woman wearing a tulle palace dress and bare feet walked in slowly, her face was full of nervousness, and there was a hint of expectation.

Although the woman's feet were bare and she barely made a sound, the heavy panting still couldn't be concealed from Zhu Cihong's ears, she frowned suddenly, and said in displeasure, "Didn't I say, don't bother me?"

Zhu Cihong also thought it was some bold court lady who came to seduce him while the red lady was away, and wanted to fly on a branch to become a phoenix.

He has long been used to this kind of thing, and in the past half a year, dozens of court ladies have indeed succeeded, so now after taking a bath, he simply kicked those court ladies out without giving them a chance.

Otherwise, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that within a few years, the team in the harem will probably have to have a reinforcement group, and the palace courtyard of the harem will not be able to accommodate them.

After all, if you have slept once, at least you have to be granted the status of a talented person, you have to give one independent small courtyard, and you have to match two serving maids.

Although the royal family has so much money now that they don't care about this little expense at all, no matter how much he can afford, and if he can't live in it, at worst, he can expand the harem, but Zhu Cihong doesn't want to blindly expand the harem team just because he can't hold back for a while.

After all, his energy is limited, and it is not what he wants to end up raising a bunch of dissatisfied wives who have no feelings at all, and it is also a waste of resources.

So at this moment, seeing that he had given orders, and there was still a court lady who had the courage to seduce him, Zhu Cihong was also a little angry, and decided to drag it down later, and put a few boards on his ass, to kill this evil spirit.

In fact, he also knew that the reason why these court ladies were so bold was that there was no queen in the harem, and the concubine Hong Niang was used to carelessness, so she didn't care about such things at all.

And because the emperor has a modern way of thinking, under normal circumstances, as long as he doesn't make any serious mistakes, the most punishments for court ladies are fines and confinement, and there are very few punishments, let alone beheading, so the atmosphere in the harem is very It is relaxed and active, not as depressing and lifeless as in the harem of other dynasties.

Originally, Liu Xinlan, the chief executive, was intimidating, and those court ladies only dared to seduce the emperor secretly, but since Liu Rushi took over, the court ladies began to be unscrupulous, and sometimes dared to seduce the emperor blatantly.

For example, when getting up in the morning to serve, or when taking a bath.

He also thought about giving all these tasks to the maids he had slept with, but he was worried that they would compete with each other and cause some messy things, so these tasks have now been replaced by eleven or twelve-year-olds. The little maid, who would have thought that the eleven or twelve-year-old little palace lady would not be pure in her mind.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Liu Rushi looked at the little emperor who was soaking in the water with only one head exposed, and called out in a trembling voice. His palms and forehead were covered with fine sweat, which showed how nervous he was.

Zhu Cihong was taken aback, looked back at Liu Rushi, smiled wryly, "But the imperial concubine asked you to come?"

"Ok!"

Liu Rushi nodded her head lightly, her pretty face was blushing almost to the point of dripping blood, she really wanted to go up to serve her, but her legs couldn't move as if they had taken root.

"What did the imperial concubine tell you?" Zhu Cihong asked curiously while lying on the bathtub.

Seeing that she was only wearing a layer of almost transparent tulle all over her body, her snow-white skin was faintly visible, coupled with her gorgeous appearance, she was really very tempting.

But Zhu Cihong was slightly disappointed, in his heart Liu Rushi shouldn't be such a woman, even if she was encouraged by the red lady to serve him, she shouldn't dress like this.

"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty just asked my concubine if she would like to come and serve His Majesty to take a bath..."

Liu Rushi raised her head and replied in a low voice.

"Actually, I would rather discuss poetry with you!"

After Zhu Cihong finished speaking, she turned her head and continued to close her eyes and meditate.

He also knew that for an emperor like him who was young, handsome, talented, and trying to turn the tide, no woman could resist the temptation to climb onto the dragon bed, but now seeing a strange woman like Liu Rushi was no exception, his heart was extremely complicated , an indescribable contradiction.

That is, because of my own charm, I am complacent and self-satisfied, but I feel that this is very boring.

"what!"

Liu Rushi was even more at a loss. She didn't understand what the little emperor meant, so she thought about it and said, "Your Majesty likes poetry, so this concubine should write an old poem for His Majesty."

"Forget it, let's go ahead and rub my back!" Zhu Cihong waved his hand. Although he was a little disappointed, compared to those court ladies, Liu Rushi was indeed a little moved. It doesn't make any sense, at worst, it's better to find and train the chief executive again.

"It's Your Majesty."

Liu Rushi had no choice but to bite her lip, and went to the tub and stepped in.

In fact, why didn't she hear the disappointment in His Majesty's tone, and understood why His Majesty was disappointed, but she also understood that there was probably no woman in this world who could maintain her reserve in front of the little emperor for a long time.

Especially every time when the little emperor dotes on the red lady, he can't help but think how much better it would be to be himself, and there are many bold court ladies who have succeeded in being favored, so when the imperial concubine told her tonight, she would again Couldn't keep calm either.

Although Liu Rushi was over thirty, when he came to the tub and looked at Zhu Cihong, he was still as shy as a little girl, a little at a loss.

Seeing her demeanor, Zhu Cihong finally became interested, pulled her into his arms, and said with a smile: "I think it's an elegant thing for Madam to write a poem to cheer you up in this situation. But Madam's words must fit the current scene!"

"I didn't expect His Majesty to be so bad, he likes to tease people..."

How could Liu Rushi not understand Zhu Cihong's meaning, after being in contact with him for so long, she also knew his character, so she couldn't help blushing and said coquettishly.
