Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 201
While issuing an edict to dismiss some palace maids, Qingji did not want to release some eunuchs (eunuchs), or completely ban the existence of eunuchs.

After all, the eunuch is a deformed product of the ancient dynasty.

Inhumane!

However, Qingji knew very well that for now, the existence of eunuchs in the harem was reasonable.

Reasonable!

Because although the eunuch who was castrated was neither male nor female, his physical strength was still better than ordinary maids, and he was no different from ordinary men.

In the harem, the eunuch is always responsible for some heavy work!

If Qingji abolished all the eunuchs in Wu's harem, he was afraid that some unnecessary troubles would occur.

The monarch needs women, so there are court ladies, but at the same time, there are many things that the court ladies are inconvenient to do, or things that the court ladies cannot do well, so eunuchs are produced.

At the same time, the monarch was worried that the court ladies would have an improper relationship with the eunuchs in the palace, which would seriously affect the atmosphere in the palace, so the eunuchs needed to cleanse themselves before entering the palace, so as to avoid chaos.

Qingji can't let others cuckold him, can he?

Furthermore, there are some things that eunuchs are indeed more suitable for than court ladies.

Not to mention the rough work, usually to issue an imperial edict for Qingji, someone needs to go to the minister's home to read the edict.

If a court lady is sent to carry out this matter, there is a high possibility that the court lady will collude with the minister, so that the imperial edict of Qingji will not have its due effect, or the minister who received the edict will collude with the court lady to make the edict promulgate unsatisfactorily. precise.

Because the court ladies are all of lowly background, they are very easily attracted by the family background of officials and betray the monarch.

Therefore, the existence of eunuchs is particularly useful in such matters!

Secondly, an industrious monarch like Qingji often spends the whole night reviewing memorials. He is too busy, so it is inevitable that someone will serve tea and water, and light candles and lamps.

How could Qingji not be distracted if a few charming maids accompanied him all night?

No matter how strong the concentration is, it is impossible to sit still in the middle of the night, right?
Not every man has the concentration like Liu Xiahui!

Inside the Jiaofang hall, the lights are bright.

Queen Ji Kou was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and Qing Ji, who was laying the floor on the side, was doing the same.

Qingji turned over restlessly, closed his eyes, but couldn't fall asleep from the beginning to the end.

Seeing this, Ji Kou couldn't help chuckling, and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go to sleep elsewhere? The concubine is pregnant and is about to give birth. I really can't serve the King. Why don't you go to another place to be lucky?"

"The queen's words are wrong."

Qingji rolled his eyelids and said, "I promised you that I will sleep in Jiaofang Hall tonight. I am the king of a country. How can I break my word? How can I break my promise?"

"Since that's the case, why doesn't Your Majesty sleep on the couch?"

Ji Kou couldn't help but cast a blank glance at Qingji, feeling quite amorous.

Qing Ji shook his head and said, "I think it's good to sleep on the floor occasionally."

Dead duck mouth hard!
Ji Kou covered her mouth with a light smile and said, "Is it possible that the king is afraid that he will not be able to hold on to himself?"

"That's too much! The queen must not overestimate the strength of the widow. After all, the widow dare not say that her strength of concentration is stronger than what she gained in the past."

It's no wonder that Qingji's concentration is too weak, it's really that Ji Kou's charm is too charming!
Especially that kind of young woman's charm, the coquettish aura exuding from the bones, how can Qing Ji control it?
This lonely man and widow living together in the same room made Qingji's heart itch.

If there was a beauty by his side, Qing Ji could remain indifferent and fall asleep peacefully, wouldn't he be worse than a beast?

Between being a beast and being worse than a beast, Qingji would choose the former without hesitation.

However, Qing Ji is still afraid of hurting the fetus in Ji Kou's womb!
Now that Ji Kou is teasing herself like this, she really deserves a fight!

"The Zhanhuo mentioned by the king, could it be Liu Xiahui, a doctor of Lu State in the past?"

"Exactly."

"Is it true that Liu Xiahui's mind is not in chaos?"

Ji Kou blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked curiously.

"It should be true."

It has only been more than a hundred years since Liu Xiahui passed away, and his descendants are still scholars and officials in the state of Lu. The story of his undisturbed state is still widely circulated, so it is naturally impossible to fake it.

Now the well-known bandit Robber Zhi in the state of Lu is a descendant of Liu Xiahui.

For an honest gentleman like Liu Xiahui, Qingji couldn't help feeling respectful.

Liu Xiahui, surnamed Ji, Zhan, named Huo, styled Jiqin, died at the age of [-], and his posthumous title was Hui.

Because the fief is in Liuxia, later generations respectfully call it "Liuxiahui".

Liu Xiahui once served as a military officer in the state of Lu, in charge of criminal punishment, prison litigation.As a model of abiding by traditional Chinese morality, his story of sitting still is widely praised.

Confucius thought that Liu Xiahui was a "left behind sage", and Mencius respected him as "He Sheng".

Moreover, Liu Xiahui has considerable influence in various vassal states.

Until the Warring States period, when Qin attacked Qi, he had to go through the state of Lu in the middle.

The Qin army ordered to effectively protect Liu Xiahui's tomb in Lu State, and stipulated that anyone who cut firewood within [-] steps of Liu Xiahui's tomb would be sentenced to death.

Liu Xiahui's influence in the various vassal states can be seen from this!
"My lord, can you tell the concubine the story of Liu Xiahui's unruly life?"

Ji Kou held his clean and white chin, and asked curiously: "Although the concubine is Yue Gui, she is farther away from the Central Plains, and I don't know much about Liu Xiahui's deeds."

Qing Ji dotes on Ji Kou, and the latter is pregnant and has nothing to do, looking at Ji Kou who is like a curious baby, Qing Ji can naturally satisfy Ji Kou's thirst for knowledge.

Therefore, Qingji said with a smile: "Liu Xiahui is indeed a gentleman, and his noble virtues are probably unmatched by men in the world."

"The legend goes like this. In ancient times, there was a dense willow forest to the west of Zhangou. One night in late autumn, when Liu Xiahui passed by the willow forest, it suddenly rained cats and dogs."

"He hurriedly hid in a ruined temple to avoid the rain. Just at this time, a young woman also came here to shelter from the rain and sat opposite him. In the middle of the night, the young woman woke up from the cold, so she got up and begged to sit in Liu Xiahui's arms , to warm the body and drive away the cold."

"Liu Xiahui hastily declined, saying: 'It's absolutely forbidden. In the wilderness, it's not appropriate for a lonely man and a widow to be together. If you sit in my arms again, it will be even more indecent.'"

"The woman said: 'Everyone in the world knows that great officials are sages and sages with high moral character. Although the little girl is sitting in your arms, as long as the adults don't have evil thoughts, what's the problem? Saved my mother and daughter.'”

"Liu Xiahui had no more excuses, so he had no choice but to let the girl sit in his arms. It was like a heavy rain, and it didn't stop all night. Liu Xiahui embraced the girl, closed his eyes and listened, and didn't move a single word. He didn't know the warm fragrance in his arms during the long night. "

"At dawn, the rain was over and the sky cleared up. The woman who was indebted to Liu Xiahui was very grateful, and said: 'Dr.
