concubines

Chapter 282 Fuer is Eighteen

Xiaohong had been worried that she would forgive suddenly, but now she was even more nervous when she heard her order.

"Your Majesty, what are you asking the Emperor for?"

Xiaohong didn't know what Miaoli and Li Youfu said, but she was just afraid that she would be hurt again.

Miao Li could clearly feel her nervousness, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Can't I ask him?"

"No!" Xiaohong shook her head and nodded abruptly, "Yes, empress should not ask him, empress should not go to him."

Xiaohong was so anxious that she couldn't speak very well.

Miao Li probably understood why she was in a hurry, so she said to comfort her: "Don't worry, I just ask him for other people's matters, not my own."

"Does the servant know what's going on?"

Miao Li shook her head, she couldn't laugh or cry seeing her so nervous, and said: "It's not a big deal, I have my sense of proportion, you don't have to worry."

Xiaohong doesn't know how to persuade her, she can't say that she must never reconcile with the emperor, what if Miaoli wants to reconcile with him in her heart?Didn't she just become that?I can only worry on one side.

The eunuch sent out to inquire has already returned, and said to Miao Li: "Your Majesty, the Emperor is in Yuxiu Palace, and he has sent another group of beauties over."

It is enough to know where he is, not what he is doing.Without too much preparation, Miao Li said, "Then clean up, I'll go there now."

Mammy Xi helped her get a cloak to put on, looked at her attire again, and asked, "Ma'am, is it a little too plain?"

Her complexion was not very good, she hadn't applied makeup on her face, and she looked a little sick if she was dressed plainly.

Miao Li didn't even look at herself, and said indifferently: "I'm not here to choose a concubine, let alone to stand up, what are you doing with such a gorgeous dress?"

A woman looks like someone who pleases herself, she doesn't need to dress up for anyone now.

Sitting on the sedan chair, the only thing Miao Li worries about is how to talk to Zhou Shuxuan. It was easy to say anything before, but now it is hard to say anything.

In the beginning, Li Youfu could try it out first, but now I can't wait that long.I was worried that Ding Guogong would force Qu Xingeng to marry him as soon as his temper came up, and it would be even more difficult to handle.

So she had to go there as soon as possible and settle the matter early.Ding Guogong is already choosing someone else for Qu Xingeng, and it is not impossible to force a woman for him once his temper hardens.

Yuxiu Palace is not far away, just a few steps away.

There were many court ladies and eunuchs standing outside, and the emperor's honor guards were all there, and the posture seemed to be quite large.Standing at the door, Miaoli suddenly felt a little impulsive, and it will be fine after a while.But now that it's all over, she doesn't want to do it again.

Xiao Zhuozi asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to go in and report?"

The meaning of coming with great momentum changed, Miao Li thought for a moment and said: "Forget it, let's go in quietly, and if the situation is not right, we will come out quietly."

Anyway, her clothes are not very conspicuous, so she should not be noticed.Now everyone's eyes should be on those beauties, and they won't notice her.

Miao Li walked in, but no one stopped her.When I got to the courtyard, I saw many beauties, dozens of them.There are all kinds of them, it's really confusing to choose.

It's really not the right time for her to come, Zhou Shuxuan is busy, standing in front of a girl, he can't take his eyes off her.Miao Li felt that it was better for her not to bother him, she didn't say anything, she turned around and prepared to go out quietly.

Zhou Shuxuan didn't see her, but Gao Fu saw her, and immediately stepped forward and whispered to Zhou Shuxuan, "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is here."

As if telepathic, Zhou Shuxuan looked in Miaoli's direction as soon as he raised his head, and saw her back.He chased after him immediately, in front of so many people, he didn't even want the stability of being an emperor.

He chased to the door, Miao Li was just about to get into the sedan chair, when she saw him chased out, she retreated to salute. "The concubine pays respects to the emperor."

"Get up." Zhou Shuxuan took a steady breath, and immediately said with an explanation: "The girl just now looks somewhat similar to my mother's queen, so I just watched it for a long time."

Miao Li stood on the side with half bowed head, not answering the words.

Zhou Shuxuan felt a little embarrassed, and asked himself, "Come here, what's the matter?"

Already talked to him, then just settle the matter.

Miao Li slightly raised her head, glanced at the gate of Yuxiu Palace, and said: "Just now Concubine Yi went to sit with the concubine, and said that the emperor is personally choosing a concubine. .”

Zhou Shuxuan said dryly: "There's nothing exciting, that's all. Do you want to go in and sit?"

He didn't think about Miao Li's answer, he just said something casually, he doesn't know how to speak in front of her now, he always feels that his head is not enough.

Miao Li replied unexpectedly: "Yes, the concubine also said that she would go in and have a look."

Zhou Shuxuan was a little confused, but he didn't expect her to agree suddenly.There is something wrong with him too, why did he invite her to watch the concubine selection, is it okay to do something else?She was also very strange today. She stopped talking when she took the initiative to go out, and she actually said so many things that were not so hurtful to him.

Anyway, his mind is in a mess now, with countless thoughts intertwined, leading her in.

As he walked, Zhou Shuxuan suddenly said with an explanation: "The ministers repeatedly forced me to agree. I didn't want to choose a concubine myself."

After explaining, he felt that what he said was nonsense. Miao Li didn't care whether he chose a concubine or not, and could even help him choose. His explanation didn't make any sense at all.

When she got inside, Zhou Shuxuan had someone move a stool for her to sit beside her.

Just now he read halfway and left without leaving any will. The eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, these..."

Zhou Shuxuan shook his head.

Immediately another row came up, Miao Li was by his side now, Zhou Shuxuan couldn't look down at all, and couldn't move away from Miao Li.

Miaoli also felt his gaze, which made her feel a little comfortable, and didn't want to be stared at by him like this.I looked at the little girls below, and said with emotion: "You are so young."

When Zhou Shuxuan heard her speak, he glanced down perfunctorily, and said without thinking, "You are indeed quite young."

"It's really time for some newcomers to come to the palace. The concubines are not young, and Fu'er will be eighteen after the Chinese New Year."

Zhou Shuxuan put her words in his head, and didn't think clearly what she meant for a while, but just continued her words, "You need new clothes, but you still need old ones. Too young, there is no way to walk together, always It feels like something is missing."

Miao Li didn't speak as if she didn't hear it.

Zhou Shuxuan's disappointed eyes moved away from her, put them down without focus, and then kept shaking his head.Of these dozens, he was not satisfied with any of them.These women were still young, but he was not so young anymore.

After sitting for a while, Miao Li said that she was not feeling well and was ready, and left.

I hope he can understand what he said, and he should be able to understand his hints.

After she left, Zhou Shuxuan had no interest and went back to Longde Hall.On the way, I kept thinking about what she said just now, and after thinking about it several times, I finally found the problem.

Miao Li mentioned Li Youfu twice, the first time she was called Concubine Yi, and the second time she was called Fuer, only the two of them called Li Youfu Fuer, the others were not so close.When she called Fu'er, she mentioned Li Youfu's age, and she mentioned Li Youfu's age in front of him once before.At that time, he wanted Li Youfu to leave the palace.

It became clear that she came out so abnormally because of Li Youfu, and only Li Youfu could let her come out.As for the purpose, either Li Youfu wants to leave the palace, or it is also possible that Li Youfu already has a sweetheart and is just waiting for him to nod.

After much deliberation, there is almost only one possibility.

Zhou Shuxuan said to Gao Fu calmly, "Go and see if Concubine Yi has any abnormal signs during this time."

Miao Li went back to sit for a while, but she was still uneasy, wondering if Zhou Shuxuan could think of other meanings in her words.When it was getting dark, the little eunuch came back again and reported, "Madam, the people around the emperor went to Madam Yifei in the afternoon, and they stayed for a long time before leaving."

Miao Li breathed a sigh of relief, which showed that Zhou Shuxuan understood what she meant.

Now it's time for Li Youfu to talk to him by herself, but how can she find a way to talk to him?Another trouble.

Miao Li was still thinking about this while sleeping on the bed, so she must come up with a good idea.

As she fell asleep, she vaguely remembered an old incident. She was sleeping with Zhou Shuxuan and was bumped into by Li Youfu in the palace.She was afraid that Li Youfu would be angry, and when she went to apologize to her, Li Youfu forced her to sign an absurd document, and now she just took it out to talk about it.

This is also the debt she owed before, and it's time to repay the debt.

As soon as she opened her eyes the next day, Miao Li asked someone to invite Li Youfu over.

Li Youfu's eyes were red, as if she had been crying all night, she was sure that she was secretly sad.Miao Li didn't say anything to comfort her either. Solving the problem is the main thing now, and naturally she won't cry when the problem is gone.

Miaoli helped her recall: "When you were in the palace, you said that I robbed the prince, and I will accompany you many husbands in the future, do you remember?"

Speaking of this stupid thing, Li Youfu felt a little embarrassed, "Sister, I was just joking at the time, don't take it seriously."

Miao Li smiled and asked: "How can you not take it seriously, you must take it seriously. Is the thing I signed at that time still there?"

Li Youfu nodded, she should still be there, she couldn't bear to lose anything.

"As long as it's still there, you take that to the emperor. Test him first, if it doesn't work, take it out, and you can just roll around with him."
