The wives of the concubines are empresses

Although the moon in the palace is the same as the one outside the palace, the night sky is only as big as the square wall of the underground palace, and it has lost a bit of freedom.

General Nan Shaoan looked at Shangguan Wanjun standing under the eaves of the palace wall, and walked forward with doubts. He reached out and hugged her from behind.

"Is the Emperor admiring the moon?"

"That's it."

General Nan Shaoan put his head on her neck and greedily sniffed the fragrance of her hair and body.

"Your Majesty, a night of spring is worth a thousand gold. Why don't we do something more meaningful?"

Faced with the man's passionate and affectionate invitation, how could Shangguan Wanjun refuse? Besides, the man had finally come back and had been waiting for her for at least half a year.

As a king and a wife, she should be considerate and understanding of him.

Shangguan Wanjun said softly, "Okay, my husband and I haven't seen each other for a long time. You must treat me well tonight."

General Nan Shaoan smiled happily and ambiguously and replied, "Okay."

He picked up the delicate Shangguan Wanjun and walked towards the bathroom, serving her personally throughout the whole process. After drying her body, he saw that she was wearing a white bellyband embroidered with orchids. He picked up the red gauze coat on the shelf beside him and put it on her.

Shangguan Wanjun looked at the man with moist eyes. The moment their eyes met, their hearts were pounding.

General Nan Shaoan could no longer bear it, he bent down and picked up the person he missed in his heart and ran straight to the Dragon's Bedroom.

Shangguan Wanjun consciously wrapped her arms around the man's strong and slender neck, resting her fair jade feet on it quietly, letting him hold her step by step and walk to the soft couch and gently put her down.

The man leaned over and pressed forward, and the two of them made love together.

The moans of the women and the gasps of the men in the bedroom made the palace maids such as Lianhua Ouhe Muxiang Sun Yuewei blush.

General Nan Shaoan had been holding it in for half a year. He originally wanted to have the empress again, but he was afraid that he would be too harsh and prevent her from attending court tomorrow, so he gave up the idea.

"Princess, go to sleep. There is still a lot of time to come."

Shangguan Wanjun found a comfortable position in his arms and fell asleep. Not long after, General Nan Shaoan heard the empress's soft snoring, which made him unable to help but smile indulgently. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Suddenly, Shangguan Wanjun was asked to attend the court seriously. She almost couldn't get up, and General Nan Shaoan held her in his arms and made her sit on his lap and be served.

"Your Majesty, be good and let's get ready for court."

When she heard about going to court, Shangguan Wanjun pouted even more.

It turns out that workers don’t like working anywhere. Even if they are as noble as the emperor, they don’t like going to court.

If it weren't for the fact that she could occasionally listen to gossip and watch plays in the court, she felt that she would have given up long ago.

The imperial procession arrived at the side hall of the Golden Throne Hall. General Nan Shaoan and Minglan personally helped Shangguan Wanjun get out of the sedan chair, then let go and stepped back to quickly stand in the court.

The empress, who was a little listless the moment before, suddenly changed her aura the next moment when she stepped into the main hall of the Golden Throne Hall. The majesty of an emperor was fully revealed, her eyes were clear and bright, she held her head high and chest out, looking forward as she walked to the dragon throne which she had not sat on for several months and sat down.

"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor."

Shangguan Wanjun raised her hand slightly and said in a clear voice, "My dear ministers, please stand."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Shangguan Wanjun raised her head slightly and glanced at all the civil and military officials present. "My dear ministers, may I have something to report today?"

Gao Xinghua, the Minister of Rites, stepped forward with a bow. "Your Majesty, I wonder what ranks and titles should be given to the two newly promoted concubines. I ask Your Majesty to decide."

He guessed that the title was still based on the last character of the name, and perhaps the empress did it to make it easier for herself to remember.

Shangguan Wanjun said, "Commander Wang and Lord Zhang have dedicated themselves wholeheartedly to the imperial court and the country over the years, showing unwavering loyalty. Therefore, they are both conferred the rank of Seventh Grade, with the title determined by the last character of their names."

Gao Xinghua, the Minister of Rites, bowed and saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty."

The Left Vice Minister of Rites bowed and stepped out of the group: "Your Majesty, I wonder what Your Majesty's plans are for the ceremony of the promotion of the Imperial Nobles, the Civil and Military, to the Inner Court."

"Qin Tian Jian."

"The minister is here."

"Find an auspicious day to hold the ceremony for the conferring of the concubines. All the promoted concubines will be held together. The Ministry of Rites will prepare the candidates and present them."

The Left Vice Minister of Rites bowed and saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Shangguan Wanjun looked at Ming Guifu, Liu Haiming, and asked with concern, "Master Liu, has everything been okay in the capital since you came back?"

Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming, who was called upon to answer the question, stepped out with a bow.

"Your Majesty, in the month or so since I returned, I have handled eighty to ninety cases."

Shangguan Wanjun looked up in shock when she heard the number: "So many? What are they?"

"There are those who steal chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, and even pigs. There are also those who crush chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs to death. There are also those who steal money, property, and people."

"Ah, stealing someone? Male or female?"

Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that her focus was on cheating on him.

"Both."

The court officials were shocked: This is really explosive, just sit back and wait to watch.

"Age."

"More in their twenties to thirties."

Shangguan Wanjun frowned slightly: "The reason."

"There are widows, widowers, scholars, and married men."

Shangguan Wanjun was dumbfounded: "Scholar? You're really extravagant."

"Scholarly men and women?"

Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming saw her looking at him so seriously and quickly replied.

"Most of them are men."

"No wife?"

“Some have, some don’t.”

"A man with a wife still needs to steal? Are domestic flowers less fragrant than wild ones?"

The court officials, especially the male officials, were about to lose their temper.

Your Majesty, why do you ask so carefully? If someone doesn’t know, they would think you are gossiping and watching a show.

"Steal, maybe."

Shangguan Wanjun's gentle face was stained with worry: "Could it be that their wives are too ugly?"

Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming was about to reply, but Shangguan Wanjun started talking on her own.

"Aren't there brothels? Why don't you go to a brothel and instead steal? Or is stealing better?" I'm afraid he is a man with a special fetish. He doesn't cherish his good wife and instead follows others to steal others.

She looked at it and must have felt the thrill of stealing.

As expected, when men and women are passionate, they don’t care about anything else.

Ming Guifu-Liu Haiming didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I have never done it, and I don't know."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wanjun glared over.

"How dare you have such an idea?"

Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming immediately knelt down in fear and said: "Your Majesty, I made a mistake in my words. I absolutely did not have such intentions. My feelings for you are evident to all."

Oh, what’s going on? How did he get himself into trouble? The key point is that he didn’t do anything.

Shangguan Wanjun rolled her eyes fiercely: "That's better, otherwise I will peel off your skin, hum."

The Minister of Justice, Liu Huaitao, fell to his knees in fear: "The Emperor is not anxious, the eunuch is anxious, don't worry, your Majesty, your wife, would never dare to have such thoughts."

"Alright, everyone, get up. We've strayed off topic. You want to know what the wives and husbands-in-law look like, their figures, personalities, ages, and family backgrounds are like."

Ming Guifu - Liu Haimingdao: "Except for the scholars, their family backgrounds are better, and the others are all ordinary people."
