The wives of the concubines are empresses

The two went to court together. In the Golden Palace, Shangguan Wanjun accidentally saw Concubine Wu - Chuan Zhuan Feng, then she glanced and saw Concubine De - Mu Wennian, then she shifted her gaze and saw Concubine Lu - Liu Haiming. Shangguan Wanjun shifted her gaze again and saw Concubine Xuan - Song Xuanyi, and she was stunned again.

Among the imperial concubines in the court, except Concubine Xuan-Song Xuanyi, all the others have officially slept with the emperor, but he will be there soon.

"My dear ministers, do you have anything to report?"

Taifu Yun asked, "Your Majesty, the literacy competition is tomorrow. Would Your Majesty like to go?"

"Go ahead, line up on the spot and stop causing chaos at home."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Kyoto Commander stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, our Kyoto Commander is also ready."

Shangguan Wanjun nodded slightly: "Okay, by the way, are the recent cases in the Dali Temple going well?"

Song Yunshuo, the Dali Temple official, said, "Your Majesty, the Dali Temple's recent cases have been pretty good."

There was nothing big going on in court today, mostly trivial matters, so naturally the court ended quickly.

Back in the imperial study, Mu Xiang brought a bowl of freshly made mung bean soup.

"Your Majesty, you must be feeling hot. Have a bowl of mung bean soup to quench your thirst."

After the eunuch tested the poison, Shangguan Wanjun took the spoon and began to drink it slowly.

"It's not bad. I'm afraid it must have lasted at least half an hour."

Mu Xiang replied softly, "Your Majesty, the mung bean soup will take an hour to boil."

"No wonder, I think it tastes good."

"It's fine if you like it. I'll make sour plum soup this afternoon."

Shangguan Wanjun pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, by the way, where are the snow whites and cakes."

Sun Yuewei said cautiously, "Your Majesty, it is inconvenient for them to come to you recently."

Shangguan Wanjun looked at her puzzledly: "Why?"

Sun Yuewei explained in panic, "I don't know what happened, but Bai Xue and Gao Dian got lice."

Shangguan Wanjun was startled: "Ah, lice? Take me to see them."

There are lice in this palace?

Who doesn't like to be clean?

A group of people walked into a hall, and noisy sounds came from the inner room.

"What should I do? There are so many lice on these cats and dogs that I can never get rid of them all. If the Emperor finds out, it will be a disaster."

Another eunuch said anxiously: "Let's try to catch him first."

Catch as many as you can, otherwise if the emperor suddenly wants cats and dogs, it will be over. The fewer people you catch, the less crime you will suffer.

Two guards pushed open the door, revealing Shangguan Wanjun, Liu Cheng, Lianhua, Muxiang, Ouhe and others. The two eunuchs were so scared that they knelt down immediately.

"This slave is here to see the Emperor."

Seeing them so frightened, Shangguan Wanjun felt a little embarrassed to watch.

"Catching lice?"

The two eunuchs looked at each other and said, "The Emperor knows? That's it."

Seeing their expressions, Shangguan Wanjun walked straight towards Bai Xue, bent down and squatted to pick it up.

"Little guy, you really have lice. Come, let me take a look for you." Shangguan Wanjun was about to pull apart Bai Xue's cat fur when someone stopped her.

"Your Majesty, you can't do this." Liu Cheng was scared to death. How could the emperor do the work of a servant?

Shangguan Wanjun felt like she was going to be scared to death by him: "You want to scare me to death."

Liu Cheng didn't dare to speak carelessly: "Your Majesty, I was wrong."

Shangguan Wanjun ignored her and lowered her head to continue catching lice.

"Bai Xue, you really do have lice on your body. I'll scratch them for you."

Lianhua was shocked: "Your Majesty, let me do it."

"No need, I'll do it myself."

Catching lice must be fun, she had to try it.

Shangguan Wanjun was looking for lice seriously and finally caught one. She was about to strangle it to death with her fingernails, but was frightened away by Ouhe's scream.

"Ah, Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

Shangguan Wanjun was on the verge of tears: "Oh, Ouhe, why are you making such a fuss? I'm just looking for lice and strangling them to death."

The louse she had caught with great difficulty just ran away like that.

Concubine Wen-Bai Xuanyi came to find her, but left empty-handed.

"What, the emperor is not here?"

Chen Lie looked at his concubine's lost face and asked: "Do you know where the emperor went?"

The guard said, "It seems that the snow cake has lice."

The three of them were stunned and said in unison: "Lice?"

In the Yong'an Palace of Hu Siyang, the beautiful concubine, his mother, Madam Hu, sat gracefully at the bottom.

"How are you these days, my Lord?"

"Mother, I'm fine. How are you and father doing lately?"

The gentle and virtuous Madam Hu looked at her with a gentle and doting look: "We are all fine, my Lord, don't worry."

Lin Ye brought a cup of Longjing tea: "Madam, please have some tea!"

"Thank you, Lin Ye."

"You're welcome, madam."

Meifei-Hu Siyang watched her mother drink tea with tenderness in her eyes.

"What has mother been doing to pass the time in the mansion lately?"

"I read, listened to books, and occasionally played chess with your father, and sometimes I saw him painting. What about you, my Lord?"

"I also read and listen to books. Sometimes I go to the Imperial Study to review and classify memorials for the Emperor. Occasionally I come back to paint. Lin Ye also sometimes plays chess with me."

Hearing the word "Emperor", Mrs. Hu asked gently.

"As long as the relationship between His Majesty and the Consort is good, that's all that matters."

Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi found Shangguan Wanjun. She had tried hard to catch more than 30 lice and her hands were tired.

"Snow White, are you too naughty? Look at your master, my hands are so sore."

"emperor."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shangguan Wanjun looked up at the door and saw Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi striding towards her.

"Your Majesty, your humble servant."

"My beloved, excuse me, why are you here?"

"I came here to see the Emperor. I went to the Imperial Study and they said you were not in."

Shangguan Wanjun raised her hand: "Sit down."

Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi sat down and saw the black spots on the rice paper on the table. He frowned slightly.

"This is?"

"Lice."

Concubine Wen-Bai Xuanyi was shocked: "Did you grab it from Bai Xue?"

"correct."

Noble Consort Wen - Bai Xuanyi sighed: "Your Majesty, you don't have to do it yourself, just let the palace maids do it."

"I feel relieved."

"Ah, what do you mean by decompression?"

Shangguan Wanjun frowned slightly: "It's something that makes people relax, do you want to try it?"

Concubine Wen-Bai Xuanyi frowned: Is he going to do such a disgusting thing?

But looking at the emperor's expectant eyes, he finally stood up and moved the stool closer to Shangguan Wanjun.

Shangguan Wanjun thought he was going to help her catch lice, but she found that he was holding her hand. She looked at him suspiciously.

"I will massage your Majesty's arms first, and then I will help you catch lice."

"Okay, you figure it out."

Under his careful and gentle kneading and massage, Shangguan Wanjun felt her arms felt much better.

"Okay, you're tired of rubbing, stop."

"it is good."

The two began to pick lice from Snow White again, until they couldn't find a single louse no matter how hard they tried.

"Your Majesty, Bai Xue seems to be out of it."

Shangguan Wanjun put Bai Xue on the table, squatted down and began to look for lice on the pastries.

"Oh my God, there are so many, my beloved, hold on to the cakes quickly, I'm going to show off my cooking skills." Oh my god, her scalp tingled just looking at them.

Shangguan Wanjun grabbed the items quickly and steadily. She was so experienced that she could grab them securely with every move.

Concubine Wen-Bai Xuanyi was stunned, but it was the first time he saw such a lively and lovely emperor.

Shangguan Wanjun lowered her head for too long and felt her neck was very sore.
