The wives of the concubines are empresses

Chapter 62: Concubine Ran Wang Ran leaves the capital, Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet

Ranpin - Wang Ran's face was full of embarrassment, and she looked at the two idiots with her handsome face.

"Don't you know that women have their period every month?"

Concubine Bai Jiang Ruobai realized it later and her pretty face flushed with embarrassment.

"No, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Ranpin - Wang Ran rolled her eyes: "Brother, I just found out about this, okay? Didn't you see how awkward and shy the emperor is? Why are you still trying to get to the bottom of this?"

The slow-witted Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu also gradually reacted and looked at Concubine Ran Wang Ran with kindness.

Ranpin-Wang Ran suddenly met his eyes and found that there was a barely perceptible hint of gratitude in his eyes.

Liu Cheng came out holding a whisk and said, "Three side lords, please bring the memorial into the bedroom."

The three people's complexions had recovered somewhat, and there was not much blush on their faces.

Shangguan Wanjun continued to drink some brown sugar water and caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of her eye.

The previous embarrassment was still fresh in her mind, and she could only pretend to be calm. It felt even more difficult than the last morning court.

"emperor."

"sit down."

The three of them looked and saw that even the round table had been moved over.

Mu Xiang glanced at her master, then at the three concubines, and finally Concubine Ran - Wang Ran looked up and met her gaze.

"Master Muxiang, is there anything wrong with you?"

At this moment, Shangguan Wanjun also looked at Mu Xiang with confusion.

"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well. How about having the concubines take turns reading the memorials to you so that you don't have to sit up straight?"

Youyou, who usually doesn't talk much, also interrupted at this moment.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I think Mu Xiang's idea is excellent."

Concubine Ran - Wang Ran looked at the girl on the couch, stood up and bowed.

"Your Majesty, how about I, your humble servant, read the memorial to you?"

Shangguan Wanjun thought of her last experience, which tortured her terribly.

If you can feel a little more comfortable right now, why not do it?

"Okay, then you can sit opposite me."

Youyou was delighted when she heard this and quickly added a soft pillow to the wall.

"Your Majesty, please lean back on the soft pillow."

Shangguan Wanjun is not pretentious, so just lean on her.

"...This county hasn't seen any rain in the past two weeks, and the people's food supply may be depleted. I would like to ask if this year's tax revenue could be reduced a little so that the people can get through the year safely. Otherwise, I'm afraid more people will die..."

After hearing the contents of the memorial, Shangguan Wanjun frowned.

"Half a month without rain? North or south?"

Ranpin-Wang Ran was confused. Is this rain related to the north and the south?

"Your Majesty, I do not understand what you mean."

"Water shortages in the north might be even more fatal. Vegetation is already sparser, and if there's a prolonged drought without rain, people might even have trouble getting water."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Ran Wang Ran was shocked.

If a person does not drink water for a long time, he will die of thirst.

"So what should we do?"

"I don't know the specific situation, and even if there is a plan, I don't know which one is more suitable for them."

Ranpin - Wang Ran was in deep thought. He looked cautiously at the worried and frowning girl.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go. You can write down the methods on paper, and I will try them one by one." He is already eighteen years old, and it is time for him to do what he can for the country and the people.

Shangguan Wanjun didn't agree immediately: "It's very hard."

Can you bear the suffering?

"I am willing to give it a try. There is always a process." He also wanted to try it.

There was no better way, so Shangguan Wanjun finally agreed and wrote down some methods herself. As to whether they would be useful or not, it all depended on fate.

"I'll take my leave."

"Go ahead and wait until you come back."

The words "I'll wait for you to come back" made Concubine Ran - Wang Ran, who had already turned around and left, stop in her tracks.

He turned around gently, looked at the girl on the couch, smiled at her gently, then bowed as if saying goodbye.

"I will." He felt a great sense of responsibility when he went there this time.

After he left, the person who read it became Baipin Jiang Ruobai.

"I wish the Emperor good health..."

Jiang Ruobai looked at the memorial written in vernacular Chinese, his brow furrowed with frown.

"Your Majesty, this person is too long-winded." It was just a lot of nonsense.

"I think so too. Come, I'll give him my comments."

If you can't write a memorial, then don't write it. I was furious when I heard that.

Liu Cheng accidentally saw the annotation and his mouth twitched. The emperor was really bold in writing.

One dares to write and the other dares to review. I wonder what the adult will think when he sees it.

Busy times always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was dark.

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu and Concubine Bai - Jiang Ruobai left the imperial study, and it started to drizzle.

Thinking of the places where there is a lack of rain, Shangguan Wanjun sighed that the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in history was truly a great project.

The Grand Canal created by that emperor was truly a sin in his own time, but a great achievement for generations to come.

Thinking of the young man who had left, Shangguan Wanjun was a little worried about him.

The young man with a noble temperament is the second son of the Wang family. He should not have suffered much. I wonder if he can complete the task successfully this time.

Time flies and we welcome the Mid-Autumn Festival, with lights and decorations all over the palace.

This was a very important banquet for all civil and military officials and their families, because it was the first formal banquet after the new emperor ascended the throne, and it was held on the auspicious day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The three people in high positions were the three most noble women in the Yuan Dynasty, one emperor and two empress dowagers.

On the left and right of the empress were the empress dowagers of the east and west palaces. All three of them were wearing noble bright yellow dragon and phoenix robes, auspicious palace attire.

"My dear ministers and their families, it's a rare occasion for us to gather together for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Come, let's drink this glass of wine together to welcome the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank them all.

There was singing and dancing, music started playing, and dancers appeared on stage in their dance costumes.

Looking at the beauties' slender waists and graceful dance moves, accompanied by fine wine and delicious food, makes people want to indulge in a dream of drunkenness and death.

Shangguan Wanjun enjoyed the singing and dancing with a smile on her face, and finally understood the feeling of a king not attending court early when he saw a beautiful woman.

"Emperor, these dances look quite good."

"What the Queen Mother said is true. The dancers put in ten years of hard work offstage for just one minute onstage. It's a feast for our eyes, but it's also very hard work for them."

The Empress Dowager Xigong's face was full of smiles, as this was her first formal palace banquet as the Empress Dowager.

Looking at the ministers and their families below, she felt proud.

But all this is thanks to his daughter and his sister, the Empress Dowager Donggong.

The scene at the high position had already been watched by everyone below the stage.

After watching several dances in a row, Shangguan Wanjun felt that no matter how beautiful the dance was, there would be a time when the eyes would become aesthetically tired, so it was better to let the eyes rest for a while.

"My dear ministers, since it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, why don't we write poems and verses about it? What do you think?"

Master Yun bowed and said, "That's fine."

The Right Prime Minister said with a smile, "Your Majesty, why don't you give a start to all the ministers and their families?"

Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi frowned slightly: "Father is getting old and confused. How dare he let the emperor demonstrate it himself? Isn't this challenging the emperor's authority?"
