sit tight

I have been visiting various places privately for more than half a year, and I am really tired.Come with me to see my concubines in a while. "

Wang Fu opened his eyes wide and his jaw almost fell to the ground. Is Long Live thinking about it? Those beautiful ladies have been left in the harem for several years. Why do you suddenly want to go today?Could it be that what I said just now made Long Live's conscience realize, oh no, it's because of the excitement?However, last night in the Hall of Qinzheng... Wang Fu shook his head, telling himself not to wander, the king's heart is unpredictable.

"The old slave is going to inform the ladies to prepare."

I heard that Long Live will move to the harem to visit the three empresses. Some people are happy and some are worried.

Sanhua Palace is the sleeping hall given to the three noble concubines by the Holy Majesty today.Sanhua Palace covers a vast area, with pavilions, terraces and buildings in the hall, as well as rockeries and lakes.

In the study room of Chunhua Palace, a beautiful and curvaceous woman is flipping through history books.She is Concubine Wu, who was selected by the Empress Dowager from among thousands of beautiful women.

Concubine Wu Guifei is quiet by nature and doesn't like to interact with people too much.When she was selected into the palace at the beginning, she was extremely unwilling in her heart.Concubine Wu's boudoir name is Wu Chunhua, and she has had a fiancé since she was a child.Later, because her fiancé had an accident, her family was in trouble, and her father disliked the poor and loved the rich, so he asked someone to send her to the palace to participate in the draft.

It is different from the other two empresses.She will not be restless because she has been in the palace for five years and has not even seen the emperor's face, or complain about the dark palace life.On the contrary, she was thankful that the emperor was indifferent, which allowed her to read and write with peace of mind, thinking of the person in her heart.

Only then did the eunuch come into the hall to report that the Holy Majesty was coming to Sanhua Hall.Concubine Wu Gui felt like a bolt from the blue, giving birth to a wave of despair.She was afraid that the emperor would spoil her, and she had already lost her freedom and lost contact with her sweetheart. Could it be that this body would also be lost?

The two little lords of Jinhua Palace and Xiuhua Palace dressed up as beautiful as immortals early on, waiting for the emperor to come, but Wu Chunhua didn't care to dress up. He only wore his usual light green gown and long silk skirt. Fen Dai.

The eunuch's shrill voice came from the entrance of the hall, "The emperor is here."

The eyes of the three beauties kneeling on the ground lit up when they saw the handsome emperor.

Qin Yufeng put his hands behind his back, walked into the Sanhua Palace, looked at the three beauties kneeling on the ground, Longyan smiled, "You don't need to be polite, you all get up."

Concubine Jin and Concubine Xiu got up, hurried to Qin Yufeng, and showed their affection coquettishly.Only Concubine Wu Gui lowered her head and stood there motionless.

Concubine Jin and Concubine Xiu supported Qin Yufeng with one arm each, welcoming Qin Yufeng into the main hall of Sanhua Palace, where a banquet had already been prepared on the table.

Qin Yufeng sat down, his handsome eyes swept across Wu Guifei's face, and asked her, "Wu Aifei, I see you are not very happy, do you have something on your mind?"

Concubine Wu Gui shook her head.

Qin Yufeng was puzzled, he used his hands to block the two overly enthusiastic people next to him, preventing them from rubbing against him, approached Concubine Wu Gui, looked down at this concubine who was not very enthusiastic about him, raised her chin, She smiled and said, "Wu Aifei, tonight you will be in bed."

Qin Yufeng let go of Wu Chunhua's chin, and watched her turn from shock to despair, and finally knelt on the ground without saying a word.

The two ladies at the dinner table wished their eyes could turn into knives and shoot Wu Chunhua to death.It's so unfair that such a woman who doesn't know how to flatter and won't please the Holy Majesty can get the favor of the Holy Majesty first.

Qin Yufeng seemed to be in a good mood, and said to Wang Fu, "You spread the news that I favor Concubine Wu tonight, and my ears will be much clearer tomorrow morning."

Wang Fu bowed and stepped back.

Lin Changqing lifted Wu Chunhua from the ground, took her by the hand, and walked into Concubine Wu's bedroom.

Following their footsteps, the maid behind her put down layers of gauze curtains to block the spring light in the room.

cut lovesickness

In the past few days, the atmosphere in the court has been quite delicate.First, the Holy Majesty stayed in the Chunhua Palace for three consecutive days, and Concubine Wu Guifei was established as the queen.Then there is the virtuous king who was sick at the age of nine thousand and did not go to court for three consecutive days.

Wang Fu raised his face and stood beside Qin Yufeng, secretly scanning Qin Yufeng with his eyes.Since he favored Concubine Wu Guifei three days ago, Lord Long Live stayed with Concubine Wu every night, as if he had a taste for food.Today, after announcing the establishment of Concubine Wu at the court, the ministers finally understood a piece of heart disease, the Holy Majesty is normal, nothing is wrong.

Wang Fu also looked at Lin Changqing who stood at the head of the military officer. He was wearing a Molan official robe, a blue and white jade belt around his waist, and white court boots on his legs.Wang Fuyi took a few peeks at Lin Changqing when he announced the post-edict, but he didn't see anything unusual about him.

Wearing a gold and purple gold crown inlaid with hair on his head, and a gold panlong dragon robe inlaid with gold trim, his handsome facial features are as beautiful as a knife, and he is born with the aura of a king who dominates the world.Qin Yufeng looked down at the civil and military officials below the hall, his thin lips parted slightly, "Where is the virtuous king, why didn't you go to court early?"

The Taifu came out with his signature horoscope, "Your Majesty, the virtuous king has not been in court for three days. It is said that he has caught the cold and is ill. But yesterday, the servants in the minister's mansion saw the virtuous king take Swimming in the lake with a few concubines."

All the officials looked at the Taifu's shriveled bamboo pole-like back, and felt that the Taifu was going to add insult to injury.

Qin Yufeng raised his eyebrows, "Oh? And this matter? My fourth uncle has also learned to be lazy. Then, Taifu, how do you think I should deal with the virtuous king?

The Taifu showed joy, "Returning to Your Majesty, the virtuous king pretended to report illness and ignored political affairs. This is deceiving the emperor. Your majesty, you should immediately issue an imperial edict to put the virtuous king in the prison."

Qin Yufeng smiled, "I didn't expect Master Taifu to be so fair and rigorous." He paused, then turned his gaze to Lin Changqing, "Lin Aiqing, what do you think?"

Lin Changqing bowed down in disrespect, "I dare not speak nonsense."

Taifu glanced at Lin Changqing with a pair of small eyes, and snorted coldly in his heart, the embroidered pillow is useless.

Qin Yufeng's expression was unclear, and he looked at Lin Changqing who was bending over and bowing his head, "Lin Aiqing is really a smart person, if he handles it properly, no one will be offended."

Lin Changqing said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

At this time Lu Guan, Minister of the Ministry of War, came forward, "Your Majesty, although it is inappropriate for a virtuous king to go to the lake when he is sick, the virtuous king is nine thousand years old and has a noble status. How can he be punished for being nine thousand years old because of such a trivial matter. Your Majesty I implore Your Majesty to be lenient and spare the virtuous king."

Tai Tu didn't say anything, because he knew that he had been isolated, and it was useless to talk more.

Qin Yufeng said, "Okay, since Lu Aiqing pleaded for mercy, I will spare King Xian's life. Is there anything else? If there is nothing to do, let's retire."

After retreating from the imperial court, Lin Changqing walked alone on the way to the Ministry of War as usual. The Tai Fu stepped forward, bumped into Lin Changqing on purpose, and walked away swaggeringly.Lu Guan approached Lin Changqing seemingly unintentionally and walked with him. Fang Zheng had a kind smile on his face, "Master Lin, why don't you intercede for the virtuous king today? The virtuous king has treated you well."

Lin Changqing smiled, "Lord Lu is worrying too much, it's not that Changqing doesn't want to intercede for the virtuous king, it's that Changqing is not qualified at all,"

Lu Guan was puzzled, "Didn't His Majesty ask for your opinion?"

Lin Changqing turned around and clasped his fists at Lu Guan, "Master Lu, Changqing is going to work in the Ministry of War, we will talk later, goodbye."

Lu Guan stopped, looked at Lin Changqing's slender back, and fell into deep thought.After a while, a colleague passing by asked him why he was standing still, and he remembered that he also went to work in the Ministry of War?

The Qingshui River at night is as quiet as a sleeping baby.Insects and frogs croaked in the grass.Lin Changqing and Ji Bu were sitting by the river, and there was a small wooden table between them. On the table was a blue and white jug and two copper bottles.

Ji Bu filled both wine glasses with wine, and drank one himself first. He looked at the sparkling river surface under the moonlight, "Changqing, do you think I was really wrong at the beginning, I shouldn't let her Entering the palace, I should take her away."

Lin Changqing clasped his hands on his knees, dressed in white over the snow, with a calm expression, "Where did I come from, and where did I regret it, now that I have come to this point, there is no way out, and there is no way to retreat, except to move forward."

Ji Bu took a deep breath, poured himself another glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp, "If I could choose now, I would take her away and prevent her from waiting day and night in that dark palace. Thinking of me, thinking of me. Two days ago, she sent someone to write to me, telling me that she was doing well, and I don’t need to worry about her anymore. But Changqing, I don’t believe it, even if she is regarded as the queen of a country, I I don't believe it either. For five whole years, that man left him there and ignored her, and the sudden favor made me feel shocked and uneasy. Changqing, is that man using her?"

Lin Changqing didn't move, and sadness appeared on Ruyu's face, "Ji Bu, what's the use of you telling me these things? You sprinkled Zhu'er's ashes in this Qingshui River and invited me to drink here. Shall I keep mourning Pearl, and remind me not to forget the hatred? Or shall I feel guilty for what happened to your sweetheart?"

Ji Bu smiled bitterly, "Yeah, what's the use of me doing this? How can I compete with today's women for women, and what qualifications do I have to question you? But Changqing, will this kind of entanglement come to an end?"

Lin Changqing turned around, picked up the wine glass, and drank it down. He stood up, with a slender and tall figure, under the moonlight, taking advantage of the sparkling waves of the river, his whole body exuded a faint halo, Lin Changqing said, "How could There is no end, the heart is dead, the heart is cold, isn't it the end?"

Ji Bu lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head to look at Lin Changqing's back, "Changqing, you are..."

Lin Changqing turned around, walked to Ji Bu and pulled him up from the ground, "Let's go, the night is heavy and the dew is heavy, this late autumn is not suitable for sitting by the river all night, it's freezing, your lovely lady will feel sorry of."

After the two returned to the city, they met at a fork in the road.
