Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 755 Chapter 774: Harem Competing for Favor
Li Hao stood under the high slope, looked back at the Ganye Temple, and then looked at Xu Jingzong who had gone away in the dark, and couldn't help sighing. These people were originally passionate scholars, but after entering the officialdom, they were defiled For the sake of power and status, I sharpened my head and drilled upwards, violated my original intention and conscience, and became the kind of person they used to look down on and reviled. There is a saying that is true, we will eventually become who we used to be The most annoying kind of people.

However, Li Hao knows that no matter who they turn to, when they choose selfishness and desire for power, they have already lost. Not to mention whether Wu Meiniang can become the emperor, even if she can sit on the throne of the emperor, Li Hao is also confident that she will become the emperor. Caught from the throne, this Great Tang will eventually become the new Great Tang. Li Hao's biggest enemy now is not anyone but the feudal social system. This thing has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for thousands of years. Yes, it is impossible to change the whole world with the power of one person. According to common sense, this is impossible, even for a time traveler. It is too crazy, but Li Hao wants to try it. He has already planned After so many years of preparation, science has become popular, and he still has a chance of winning.

After feeling for a long time, Li Hao also walked back, keeping a distance of three or four miles from Xu Jingzong. With Li Hao's ability, it was too easy not to be discovered by Xu Jingzong's guards even if it was daytime, not to mention night.

It was almost dawn outside Chang'an City. Xu Jingzong was waiting at the west gate, and Li Hao was waiting at the east gate. After opening the city gate, Li Hao entered the city immediately and went home.

Back home, as soon as they arrived at the middle courtyard, they saw four sons and daughters practicing boxing under the locust tree in the corner of the middle courtyard. Li Tu stood at the front, and the other three stood in a row behind. The man followed up with a punch, looking very serious.

Li Hao nodded with satisfaction. It seems that using Li Xiaoyao to force them is really useful. These guys are so self-conscious now. A serious attitude is a good start. Li Hao doesn't bother them. He hasn't slept all night. He is a little sleepy. I went back to my room to rest.

In the harem, Concubine Xiao Shu walked in the garden with her big belly, enjoying the fresh air and gentle sunshine in the morning, as well as the blooming peony flowers, the dew on the petals had not yet dissipated, and the maids and servants followed closely on both sides of Concubine Xiao Shu , Serving carefully, lest there be mistakes.

After visiting the garden, Concubine Xiao Shu was about to leave. As soon as she arrived at the courtyard gate, she saw Queen Wang walking slowly with two maids and servants. Seeing Concubine Xiao Shu, Queen Wang frowned slightly. She is considered a magnanimous woman But Concubine Xiao Shu is too arrogant and arrogant. Relying on Li Zhi's favor and trust, she doesn't take her seriously as a queen. As a queen, she wants to rule the harem, and Concubine Xiao Shu has repeatedly made her lose face How does this allow her to control the harem? God knows what the other concubines are talking about behind their backs.

Seeing Queen Wang, Concubine Xiao Shu put on a smile and said, "Hey, sister Queen also came to enjoy the flowers. The peonies in the garden are in bloom, so pretty."

"I just walked here casually." Queen Wang also smiled perfunctorily, and then said in a slightly questioning tone, "Sister Concubine Shu doesn't need to salute Bengong when she sees her?"

Concubine Xiao Shu immediately suppressed her smile when she heard the words, stroked her swollen belly with both hands, and said: "Liangdi is pregnant, it is really inconvenient to salute, please forgive me, empress."

Queen Wang knew that she would say this, so she said: "The harem has its own rules, you are pregnant with Liujia, and I am not unreasonable, but after you see me, even if you can't salute, at least you must first Say hello and apologize."

"The empress taught me that Di Liang knew she was wrong, and Di Liang will definitely not do it again in the future." Concubine Xiao Shu lowered her head and replied.

Seeing that she had finally overwhelmed Concubine Xiao Shu, Empress Wang felt relieved, turned around and left gracefully, Concubine Xiao Shu raised her head, looked at Empress Wang's back, snorted coldly, and then said to the servant next to her: "Laifu, you Go report to His Majesty urgently, and say that the palace suddenly suffers from unbearable abdominal pain."

"Yes."

Li Zhi had just finished boxing in the Ganlu Hall and was about to have breakfast, when suddenly a servant came to report that Concubine Xiao Shu had unbearable abdominal pain, Li Zhi was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Quickly go to the imperial physician, I will go see her right away!"

Li Zhi hurriedly came to Concubine Xiao Shu's palace, and saw Concubine Xiao Shu lying on the bed, groaning in pain, Li Zhi hurried to the bed, gently helped her up, and asked softly, "Liangdi, what's wrong with you? Why do you suddenly have a stomachache?"

"The concubine...the concubine doesn't know." Concubine Xiao Shu said with a weak look, "Perhaps the little guy in her stomach is not stable and kicked the concubine."

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the imperial physician will arrive immediately, with me here, everything will be fine."

Concubine Xiao Shu shook her head: "Your Majesty, there is no need to pass on the imperial physician." That delicate appearance is simply a show-stopper.

Li Zhi straightened his face and said, "Why don't you tell the imperial physician, let's see how painful you are."

At this time, the palace maid who was serving the water at the side spoke: "Your Majesty is angry, the prince in his belly can't see your Majesty being angry, so he beats and kicks, but it's a pity that it's Your Majesty who suffers."

"Que Ping, shut up!" Concubine Xiao Shu hurriedly stopped the maidservant, but she waited for the maidservant to finish speaking before stopping, obviously the two had rehearsed.

How could the naive Li Zhi know how insidious and cunning these women are? When he heard that Concubine Xiao Shu was offended, he turned his head to look at the maidservant, frowned and asked, "Who! Who made the empress angry!"

Concubine Xiao Shu's acting skills exploded, and she comforted Li Zhi: "Your Majesty, no one will make my concubines angry."

"I don't believe it!" Li Zhi glared at the maid called Que Ping, and said coldly, "Quickly tell me who made Concubine Shu angry. If you don't tell me, I will punish you!"

The servant girl fell to her knees with a plop when she heard the words, and said: "Your Majesty, it is the Empress who made Concubine Shu angry."

"Empress?" Li Zhi frowned upon hearing the words, and then asked, "How did the Empress make Concubine Shu angry? Strictly speaking, don't miss a single word!"

Que Ping wiped her tears and said: "Concubine Shu went to the garden this morning and happened to meet the queen. The queen blamed concubine Shu for not saluting her. Concubine Shu apologized, saying that she was pregnant and it was inconvenient to salute. The queen also blamed Concubine Shu for not understanding etiquette. She said that since the empress is pregnant and cannot salute, she should greet her first and apologize when she sees her. The empress has been wronged. She must be eager to protect her mother, so naturally she will be beaten and kicked, and the empress will suffer."

"So that's how it is." Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It turned out that it was such a big deal. He thought it was a big deal, which shocked him a lot, but now Concubine Xiao Shu is depressed and has abdominal pain. Unbearable, he had to calm Concubine Xiao Shu's emotions, and said: "Don't worry, my concubine, I will tell the queen later that you don't need to salute her before you give birth, rules are dead, people are alive, right wrong."

"The emperor really dotes on his ministers and concubines." Concubine Xiao Shu seemed to have taken a dose of reassurance, and said coquettishly, "I'm afraid the queen sister will be unhappy."

"How could it be?" Li Zhi laughed, "The empress is not such an immature person, don't worry, she won't be unhappy, from now on, you two should get along well, and don't make trouble over such a trivial matter. Only when you are in harmony can I handle state affairs with peace of mind."

"Well, don't worry, Your Majesty, the concubine will definitely live in harmony with the queen's sister." Concubine Xiao Shu put on a cute appearance, and the concubines competing for favor in the harem were all dramatists.

Soon, the imperial doctor came, and upon hearing that it was Concubine Xiao Shu’s abdominal pain, they sent three academicians. After all, Concubine Xiao Shu was pregnant with a dragon seed, and the imperial hospital dared not be sloppy. Concubine Shu is fine, she just moved a little bit of fetal gas, so she can rest with peace of mind.

Now Li Zhi believed that Concubine Xiao Shu was angry with the queen. In fact, he didn't know that moving the fetus is a very flexible way to say it. Qi, fetal gas movement, the result can be big or small, the smallest result is nothing, the most serious consequence is two lives, so the term of fetal gas movement is really flexible.

The imperial physicians left after the diagnosis. Li Zhi also let Concubine Xiao Shu sleep, covered her with a quilt, let her have a good rest, and then left. As soon as Li Zhi left, Concubine Xiao Shu lifted the quilt and sat up.

Que Ping also got up from the ground and helped Concubine Xiao Shu to sit down at the table. Concubine Xiao Shu praised: "Ping'er, you performed very well just now, I will be rewarded."

"Thank you, ma'am." Que Ping said happily, "I think the emperor should go and criticize the queen now."

Concubine Xiao Shu smiled proudly: "It doesn't matter whether the emperor goes or not. The important thing is that I want to make Wang's impression in the emperor's mind gradually worse. One day, the dissatisfaction accumulated bit by bit will converge into a mountain torrent, causing His Majesty to burst out, and the result...huh..." If Li Zhi saw Concubine Xiao Shu's sinister smile at this moment, he would probably doubt his life.

Li Zhi is too simple, he really went to look for Queen Wang, in fact, no matter whether he went to look for Queen Wang, he had already been fooled by Concubine Xiao Shu, and now he went to look for Queen Wang, he was deceived even more, fortunately he didn't He got angry and didn't blame the queen. His attitude was not bad. After all, in his opinion, this is not a big deal at all. There is no need to get angry. He has an aggressive personality and doesn't like to get angry.

He told the queen in a negotiating tone that Concubine Xiao Shu is currently pregnant, so don't worry about being polite. Why do women make things difficult for women? Li Zhi didn't tell her about the abdominal pain caused by Concubine Xiao Shu's anger. If he wants a bowl of water to be flat, his starting point is very good, but none of the women around him is a simple one. In fact, compared with Concubine Xiao Shu and Wu Meiniang, Queen Wang is already very good. The city mansion is far inferior to Concubine Xiao Shu and Wu Meiniang.

Regarding what Li Zhi said, Queen Wang naturally agreed modestly, but in fact she was very depressed and angry in her heart. She knew that Concubine Xiao Shu had sued Li Zhi again. This was not the first time. She is the emperor's favorite, and Concubine Xiao Shu always sues Li Zhi in different ways, how can she bear it, now many high-ranking servants in the harem are going to curry favor with Concubine Xiao Shu, and many concubines also frequently come and go to Concubine Xiao Shu's house The dormitory, her queen's dormitory is a bird at the door, she knows that she should do something, otherwise she will be punished by Concubine Xiao Shu one day.
