The wives of the concubines are empresses

They were full of vigor and vitality on the street, and their hearts were moved when they saw the beauties in the attic box.

"The top three scholars are all so handsome."

"Yes, miss."

"Miss, which one do you prefer?"

The girl in the pink dress in the attic had a smile on her face, but when she heard the maid's words, she lowered her head shyly.

"I'm torn." They are all very handsome, making it difficult to decide.

Concubine Wu - Propaganda Style Standing on the street and witnessing everyone's high-spiritedness, for a man, passing high school and parading through the streets to brag about his official position is a very important step in his life.

Mu Xiuchang, an attendant beside him, said, "General, they have gone far away."

Concubine Wu's eyebrows moved slightly: "Let's go back to the barracks."

The guard Zheng Zhouxing also turned around and left.

Gong Huifang brought Huan'er and Mo'er out to watch the top scholars parade through the streets to show off their official positions. The three of them were very excited when they saw the men riding tall horses with high spirits.

"My dear, they are all so handsome." Mo'er said excitedly.

Huan'er also looked at her hometown master.

"Yes, Xiangjun."

Gong Huifang smiled and looked away unintentionally, but ran into the propaganda army riding on tall horses.

When their eyes met, they were both stunned, and then nodded politely to each other.

Huan'er was surprised to find that the other person looked familiar: "Xiang Jun, have we met that general before?"

Gong Huifang nodded slightly: "Yes, we met once."

Shangguan Wanjun in the palace sighed slightly and leaned back on the dragon throne.

"Why is the emperor sighing?" Liu Cheng was puzzled.

"I also want to see those talented and ambitious men. That is a very important step in a man's life."

The concubine Gao Zihao, who had just walked into the imperial study, heard this. Although he didn't hear the emperor's words clearly, he heard them clearly.

Shi Qingxue came in quickly and reported: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu requests an audience."

"Xuan."

"Yes."

Shi Qingxue walked outside the imperial study and respectfully conveyed a message to Concubine Gao Zihao.

"My Lady Shufei, the Emperor invites you in."

Princess Shu - Gao Zihao wore a moonlight-colored brocade robe and walked steadily towards the main hall with parallel steps.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be well."

Shangguan Wanjun raised her beautiful eyes slightly: "Why are you here, my beloved concubine?"

"Your Highness has come to review and classify the memorials for His Majesty."

Shangguan Wanjun was stunned when she heard this. She had forgotten to ask the concubines to help her review and classify the memorials today.

"Okay, sit down and get busy. It's time for me to review the memorials."

With the cooperation of the two, Minglan carefully sorted and placed the reviewed memorials.

"Minglan, you have been with me for several months now."

"Your Majesty, it's been over half a year."

Shangguan Wanjun was shocked. "Really? It's been so long. Can the mansion still afford the expenses? If you have any difficulties, you can always ask me for help."

Minglan nodded respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. The dowry you returned to me has been well taken care of in the mansion."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wanjun stopped bothering her and continued to deal with memorials with her head down.

After processing fifteen memorials, she had a shocking idea in her mind. She wondered to what extent the ministers would be shocked when she announced it at the court tomorrow morning.

Leng Shuxiang from Xiangxuan Pavilion was sitting under a peach tree holding her daughter, enjoying the cool breeze. She was looking at the sunset glowing in the sky, her eyes full of tenderness.

Youyou came over holding Yuan Siqi and said, "Madam Leng, look at how handsome the young master is getting."

Leng Shuxiang leaned over and looked down at her son, smiling gently.

"Yes, it's getting longer and longer."

"In half a month, it will be the full moon of the young master and young lady's birthday. We have to make a big fuss in Xiangxuan Pavilion." She remembered that the emperor had said he would come.

Leng Shuxiang felt very warm in her heart when she saw that Youyou loved her two children so much.

"Thank you, Youyou. Without you, it would be much harder for me and the children."

Youyou smiled and said, "At first, I was doing this by order, but now, I really like you. Madam Leng, please don't be polite."

The Lu Ming Banquet in the evening was to entertain the Jinshi scholars, and was personally hosted by officials from the Ministry of Rites.

The three men walked into the banquet venue. The other scholars had already sat down. When they saw the top three scholars arrive, they all stood up to congratulate them.

"Congratulations to our top three scorers."

The three of them bowed and said, "Thank you very much, everyone. We will be colleagues from now on."

The liveliness of the Lu Ming Banquet was felt by the officers and soldiers in the surrounding government offices.

Shangguan Wanjun left behind her concubine Gao Zihao. After a tiring day, she got on the sedan chair.

Behind her was Concubine Shu - Gao Zihao. Looking at the emperor in front of her who was supporting his head with his jade arms, Concubine Shu - Gao Zihao raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

As soon as Shangguan Wanjun entered the Dragon Bedroom, she completely relaxed and felt sore all over. When Concubine Shu Gao Zihao saw her, he bent down and picked up her delicate body.

The sudden leap into the air still scared the unprepared Shangguan Wanjun, and she reflexively hugged the other person's neck.

"My beloved concubine, please inform me. You almost made me lose my soul. Will you compensate me?"

Shu Fei - Gao Zihao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, smiled gently, and walked forward holding the beauty.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I don't have the courage to do that. However, I felt sorry for you at the moment, so I couldn't help but hold you in my arms to make it easier for you and save you some walking."

Hearing his words, Shangguan Wanjun put her head on his chest.

"I can't argue with you. Please put me on the couch and let me rest for a while before taking a bath."

"it is good."

Shu Fei - Gao Zihao walked to the soft couch and put her down gently, while Lianhua and Muxiang carefully supported their master.

"Your Majesty, would you like a midnight snack?" Ouhe asked with concern.

Shangguan Wanjun raised her beautiful eyes slightly and said, "Give me some egg custard, my beloved concubine, would you like some?"

"My husband, please have one too."

Shangguan Wanjun glanced at Liu Cheng, and Liu Cheng replied.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it right away."

She nodded slightly and continued to doze off.

Under the orange light, the beauty lying on the couch was so beautiful that Shu Fei - Gao Zihao suddenly had the urge to paint.

"Your Majesty, the egg custard will be here in a while. How about I paint a picture for you?"

Shangguan Wanjun looked up in confusion: "My beloved, why are you in such a good mood today?"

Shu Fei - Gao Zihao smiled and said seriously: "Beauty, you should stay on the bed."

After his explanation, Shangguan Wanjun smiled knowingly.

"You decide." She continued to doze off. She liked the quiet night, and this moment of relaxation was her own private time, so she had to cherish it.

The palace maids brought out brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone. Concubine Gao Zihao walked to the desk that had been moved in, picked up her brush, and began to paint seriously.

During the entire painting process, Shangguan Wanjun hardly moved, but gave Shu Fei - Gao Zihao a lot of convenience.

Liu Cheng brought two servings of egg custard and one serving of peach blossom pastry. He was stunned when he saw the concubine Shu painting.

Why is the concubine Shufei in such a good mood today?

Smelling the fragrance of egg custard, Princess Gao Zihao raised her eyes.

"Eunuch Liu has returned, and my painting is just finished."

Liu Cheng bowed slightly and nodded. He tilted his head and looked over. A painting of a beauty lying on a couch was placed on the desk.
