Long Harem Road

Chapter 62

When Baozhu woke up, it was already sunset, her body had been cleaned up, but her whole body was sore and soft, thinking that she had become a concubine to seduce the lord and concubine once, and this embarrassment was seen by the servants again, her cheeks felt a little hot.

"Your Majesty, you're awake.", Huanxie smiled, and led the maids with clean water washing tools to file in, groom and dress up for the master, and then retreated out one by one.

Looking at the blurred image in the bronze mirror, Baozhu nodded and supported Joy to get up, thinking of the emperor's unscrupulous demands during the day, she finally fell asleep exhausted, and there were some things that could be dealt with in the future, so she turned and said to Joy.

"Beat the people in the palace well. For today's matter, if anyone who doesn't have a good eye chews his tongue, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless!"

"Yes, master! Ma'am, don't worry, the emperor has already beaten him before he left, and no one knows about it except Mr. Li and the servants who are close to him."

Joyful blushed, thinking of the bright red marks on his master's body when he changed his clothes, rubbed his waist with both hands stiffly, and said in embarrassment, there is no image of a decisive female man.

Finally, Baozhu couldn't help but let out a burst of laughter, her expression softened a lot, Joy was even more embarrassed and embarrassed, Baozhu sighed softly, Joy was just a girl in her early twenties who hadn't left the court yet.

If in modern times, you are still in college, having a carefree love affair, acting like a baby at the knees of your parents, even though I have the grace to know her, it is still because of me that I dragged her into this murderous quagmire.

"Happy, you will be 25 years old in a few years, and you can be released from the palace. Although I hate you, I can't bear to tie you up in this red wall and green tiles for a miserable life. I have already made plans for you. At that time, I will give you a considerable dowry."

"Master, the servant girl will stay in the palace as the bridesmaid." Huanxie knelt down with a plop, without any bold words, but the firmness in his eyes could not be ignored.

"Happy, I know you are loyal, so why would I be willing to let you go? Forget it, there are still a few years left. The person who will replace you and Huanxi has been prepared in advance. I have been training for a while. Go back and talk to Huanxi. Think about it before answering, it is related to the happiness of your life."

"Yes, master, this servant understands."

"Get up, we must pay close attention to the investigation of the traitor. I don't care what methods you use. You must see the results as soon as possible, understand?" Thinking of a poisonous snake lurking in the dark that can hurt people at any time, Baozhu pursed her lips tightly and her face was gloomy down.

"Yes, master."

It was night, the emperor was staying in Yiliuxuan, Baozhu was leaning on the bed peacefully, looking at the scriptures in his hand quietly, under the radiant brilliance of the night pearl, the woman was dressed in white and light gauze, the wind was light and the clouds were calm.

Time always slips away inadvertently. Within half a month, the new batch of beautiful girls were rewarded and entered the palace one by one. Except for the four Jieyu who entered the palace every other day, the remaining 29 beautiful girls had no special privileges. , All entered the palace yesterday.

A generation of newcomers replaced the old ones, the emperor has recruited new ones to serve as servants one after another, and has not recruited the elderly for half a month. At this time, the importance of the prince and princess has been reflected. Staying overnight, but the treatment is many times better than others.

Baozhu admired the emperor's strong energy and kept going for half a month. Hey, it's no wonder that emperors are short-lived.

"Your Majesty, I found out that Zhou Wan'er and Zhou Baolin have been arranged to live with Yang Meiren in Roufu Palace." Huanxie gloated.

A few days ago, when the empress paid her respects, she mentioned the arrangements for the newcomer to enter the palace. She wanted to arrange Zhou Wan'er to Qingfeng Palace, but the orb had to be delivered in Kunning Palace, and the promise was made by the empress.

Baozhu is not sure if the queen knows about Zhou Waner's misappropriation of her poems. After all, people in Li's mansion most of the time secretly manipulated this matter, and they may not inform the queen in time before the moment of employment.

However, the empress was extremely smart. From Zhou Waner's every move and dress during the palace selection, she could tell that Zhou Waner was deliberately imitating Concubine De, how could a virtuous empress give up such a good opportunity to embarrass Concubine De?
Arranging the palace for the concubine is the queen's sole responsibility, the emperor never asks, so the queen is very confident in this kind of innocuous little trick, even if the concubine knows that she is deliberately making things difficult, there is nothing she can do about it.

But the queen's calculations never expected that the emperor's disdain for Zhou Wan'er, and his sincere affection for Concubine De, how could she get what she wanted?

Therefore, when the emperor went to Qingfeng Palace for dinner, Baozhu tactfully, aggrieved and simply expressed his hatred for the "thief" dangling under his nose. He promises that he will never let such little people disturb his Bao'er's purity.

After lunch, the emperor proclaimed the empress himself, and proposed that no other concubines should be arranged in the palace for the time being, lest the newcomers do not understand the rules and offend the prince and princess.

One in a thousand, how can a well-taught concubine not understand the rules? She is just showing up for Concubine De. She just made things difficult for Concubine De when she paid her respects, and the emperor made up for her. The lining is gone.

"Oh? Hehe, the emperor really thought very hard to stay in the Roufu Palace with the pregnant beauty Yang." Baozhu smiled, feeling at ease when the queen threw a stone at her foot.

"Master, the emperor naturally loves master.", Huanxi continued with a wide smile.

"Hehe, the emperor did stand out for this palace, but it also pushed this palace to the forefront again. Although the excuse is that no newcomers will be arranged in the palace for all concubines with children, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Because of this palace.

Besides, the emperor made the empress lose all face. After more than a year, the empress has become more and more forbearing. Who knows when she will suddenly attack?And, do you really think that the emperor will hold on to this palace, so that he will not give the empress face? "

"Master?" Joy was a little worried, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

"It's just the jealousy of the empress and the queen mother, and the jealousy of other concubines. I'm used to it. The emperor's wishful thinking is so loud." Baozhu thought for a while, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and continued.

In Yongshou Palace, the Empress Dowager sat on the head in bright yellow palace attire, squinting her eyes slightly, silently turning the beads in her hands, the servants in the palace had already been dismissed, needles could be heard, and the silent oppression made people breathless.

"Queen, you have been going smoothly since you were a child. Although you are smart, you have become ignorant and forbearing today. Haven't you grown up in the past three years?" The queen mother said slowly, her tone was flat, but she was majestic.

"Mother's queen? My son knows his mistake." The queen lowered her head and lowered her eyes, uttering a few words with difficulty, her slender fingers in her long sleeves clenched tightly and turning white.

"Rui'er, it's useless for you to be a young couple with the emperor, but you don't know the emperor too much." The queen mother sighed slightly, that's all, there are her close relatives' natal family on the left and right, please help me a lot, and continued.

"Have you ever wondered why the emperor would stand behind Concubine De so straightforwardly?"

"Concubine De, hmph, you're bewitching the crowd with demonic words." The queen said with red eyes, gnashing her teeth.

"You, your thinking is too simple. Will our emperor be the kind of person who is fooled by women?" The queen mother hated iron and steel, staring at the queen and said, "Don't think about it all day long. Jealousy, think about it."

"My son is reckless." The queen pondered for a moment, lowered her eyes and wept. She was extremely smart, but she fell into the emotional vortex and was silent for more than a year. She was eager to deal with her old enemy Concubine De, and that's why she made a mistake.

"Rui'er, you have to know that the words and deeds of the women in the emperor's harem represent not only a person, but also the family power behind her, so you should think twice before acting.

Rui'er, I would like to advise you again, in this harem, love is a luxury, whoever falls into it will be at a disadvantage, and has already lost three points.

The emperor is the son of the Ai family, and the Ai family naturally hopes that you can treat the emperor sincerely, so that he can relax, but he doesn't want you to fall into the quagmire, so you can do it yourself. "

The queen raised her head in fear, and looked at the eyes of the queen mother who had experienced the vicissitudes of the world, and tears fell silently. This was the first time the queen mother told her this from the bottom of her heart, but it was too late, she had already fallen in love, how could it be so easy forget?

"Haven't you ever wondered why the emperor put Zhou Wan'er next to Yang Meiren?" the queen mother continued.

"Mother's queen?", the queen suddenly widened her eyes, and said in disbelief, "Yang Meiren is pregnant with the emperor's child."

"Rui'er, don't deceive yourself. When did the emperor pay attention to the unborn emperor's heir? The only time it was probably the concubine De."

The Empress Dowager muttered half a sentence to herself, a light flashed in her eyes, Concubine De, is really different in Zhen'er's heart, and it is not in vain that Ai's family has become a villain and dealt with a junior. Ai's family is just worried about Zhen'er,' It's just a few servants on loan.

"But the queen mother, Yang Meiren has secretly taken refuge in the son-in-law."

"Do you think that the emperor will not be clear about your little thoughts? It is precisely because of this that the emperor arranged for Zhou Wan'er to go there. Zhou Wan'er is ruthless and will use any means to achieve her goals. In order to reflect her own greater value, what do you think she will do? "

"Mother? My son needs a prince." The queen lamented.

"The Ai family doesn't know it, but it's not your own. Your father has found a miracle doctor for you. The Ai family will find a chance to check it for you in the next few days. You still have a chance."

"Yes." The queen clenched her fists, that bastard Li Caiwei also has a chance, you just want a prince with the blood of the Li family, anyway Li family Yunying has a lot of unmarried daughters.

"Hold your own measure, you know, if Zhou Wan'er uses it well, it will be a sharp sword in your hand, and it will solve many problems for you. Otherwise, why would it take your father so much thought to ensure her What about entering the palace?"

"But……?"

"Okay, don't say any more, and you don't have to worry too much, what Zhou Waner will do, we are just guessing, the emperor is just using this matter to warn you and your father.

Even you can detect what's wrong with Zhou Wan'er, how could the emperor who always dotes on Concubine De not see it? "

"Queen, what do you mean...?", a flash of light flashed in the queen's mind, but she couldn't catch it.

"Hey, you finally got the hang of it. You should have just waited and watched. How could Concubine De let go of such an obvious imitator so easily? You were too anxious, and a good move was almost crippled by you."

"Mother."

"Hey, your father has planned for more than a year, not to help you, but because of Caiwei, you have created a rift between your family members. Caiwei is just a concubine, and now her beauty is at her limit. Why don't you understand?"

"Empress mother, son-in-law knows his mistake." The queen lowered her eyes, suppressing the sarcasm in her eyes, is this really the case?What did you guys do when that bitch got pregnant?Have you ever considered Bengong's feelings?

"The emperor has already noticed that Zhou Wan'er is your father's helper for you, but he has not attacked her for a long time. Presumably he doesn't care much about such a small person. How to make use of it is up to you."

"Yes, empress mother, I have something to ask. Zhou Wan'er is just a Baolin, and her talent and appearance are not outstanding. Why did father and grandfather choose her instead of Zhou Miaotong and Zhou Jieyu, who are both talented and beautiful?" puzzled.

"You are still too immature, it's not appropriate to think about the problem, go back and think about it more." The Queen Mother did not answer the question, but issued an order to evict the guests, the Queen had no choice but to stand up and bow and leave.
