What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

Chapter 277 - Adoption?

Xu Jingzhong's guess was right, the emperor really had the idea of ​​adoption.

He also stopped as promised, knelt on the ground and buried his head for a long time, unwilling to get up, Xie Chenyu was so angry that he died.

"What's wrong with this, I don't really want to erase that child's memory"

"They are still their own mother and child. What will happen in the next hundred years? What can you do to stop it, just for the sake of a little woman's benevolence?"

Xu Jingzhong spread his hands: "But if you separate a child under two years old from his biological mother, it is cruel to both the child and the mother."

"This is against humanity, Your Majesty"

Xie Chenyu was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He never thought that being an emperor would be so successful.

The imperial concubine did not want to have children with him, and the clan did not want to adopt children to him.

Are these thousands of miles of splendid lands a hot potato?

"Come on, let's go, can't I just continue?"

Xie Chenyu walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

That night, for the first time ever, he went back to Liu Jieyu's palace.

In other words, the batch of new nobles who entered the palace back then are still nobles now, none of them have been favored, not even Liu Jieyu with the highest rank.

They were afraid and trembling at first, but now they live in the palace calmly and calmly.

Some have learned embroidery, some like to weave jewelry, some are willing to grow flowers and grass, and some like to raise small animals.

From their sallow, skinny and humble figures at the beginning, they are now also beauties in palace costumes.

Among them, Liu Jieyu has changed the most.

She finds value and a sense of existence from managing palace affairs. Every day, she has to go through all the affairs in the palace, big and small, every day.

Gradually, from the beginning, Liu Guiren, who was dark and thin, shy and carefree, has grown into the generous and beautiful Jieyu empress who raises her hands and feet full of noble temperament.

All the people who entered the palace back then were not as bright and dazzling as her.

Lin Ximeng once proposed to let her move out of the attic and find a good place to live in the palace.

Even if it's a decent place, Jieyu can do it.

But no matter how much Lin Ximeng urged, Liu Jieyu just refused to agree.So I have been living there.

Right now the emperor wanted to come to see Liu Jieyu, but he was still standing at the gate of Jinglin Palace.

"My maidservant is seeing the emperor, our master ordered a few fish in the imperial dining room today, and said that he would eat them together with the emperor."

Xie Chenyu subconsciously wanted to go to the main hall, and as he walked, he remembered the anger in his stomach, and told Gu Yu with a sullen face.

"I won't go today, I'm here to find Liu Jieyu"

Gu Yu: "..."

In any case, the harem is still the emperor's harem.

The emperor is free to find whomever he wants, and it is not the turn of a palace man to push back and forth.

"Empress Liu Jieyu's bedroom is in the northwest, you can walk along the cobblestone road here."

Gu Yu felt that it was too embarrassing to say these things, so she quickly retreated.

-

In the small attic in the northwest corner, Liu Jieyu was looking at the ledger. It was the clothes that the palace was going to cut for the four seasons, from the emperor's noble concubine to the court ladies and eunuchs.

This entire batch of materials is stored in the Shangfu Bureau, and it has been more than a month, and the gang of palace people come to complain every day that it takes up too much space, so they should be dealt with earlier.

"Master Liu, you also have pity on us. It's okay to release a batch first and do it now? Later, the work will be piled up in one place. You should say that the servants are slow."

"You think I don't want to? I haven't finalized the material and style yet"

"All the maids and eunuchs in the palace have the same clothes. It's hard to tell who is where. The empress specifically asked me to change the style and color, so I can tell them apart."

The Shangfu bureau finally didn't urge him anymore, Liu Jieyu waved him away.

She is about to do a big job and hurry up to do this well, and change the style to show the empress.

At this time, someone suddenly reported that the emperor had arrived.

Liu Jieyu froze there, frowning and thinking for a long time, but couldn't figure out what the etiquette should be like when seeing the emperor.

What kind of etiquette should she use to receive the emperor, so she just knelt there and lowered her head, and gave a grand ceremony of kneeling three times and knocking nine times.

Xie Chenyu: "..."

"What are you doing, Concubine Ai?"

He helped Liu Jieyu up, turned around and told Zhao Hai: "Go and prepare meals, today I want to have a good meal with my concubine."

Liu Jieyu: "..."

She froze, her legs were a little weak.

"Go and take out the fine grape wine stored in my treasury"

Liu Jieyu fell limply to the ground.

"What's wrong with Concubine Ai?" Xie Chenyu helped her up.

"Your Majesty, my concubine is suddenly unwell and cannot serve the Emperor"

"The concubine heard that the meal is also prepared at the empress's place, why don't you go and see the empress?"

Xie Chenyu's face turned down: "What? You don't welcome me?"

"Of course the concubine is welcome, but the concubine is really unwell, and I ask the emperor to be considerate of the concubine."

"Then it's over, come and set the meal"

Liu Jieyu had no choice but to bite the bullet and serve.

For a meal, she was beaten to death and refused to serve, but only willing to serve by her side, laying out dishes and serving bowls.

Xie Chenyu was eating, and suddenly asked her: "Why did you enter the palace in the first place?"

Liu Jieyu: "Concubines are selected only when they meet the conditions, and they are also selected by the emperor."

This is simply nonsense.

Xie Chenyu looked at Liu Jieyu's face of wanting to cry or not, welcoming or not, wanting to be served but not wanting to be served, and immediately lost his appetite.

After a meal, he got up and left without moving his chopsticks a few times.

This anger lasted until March.

During this period, Lin Ximeng couldn't help recommending newcomers to the emperor, and even went out of the palace a few times, just to create opportunities for the emperor.

But Xie Chenyu didn't accept any of them.

On March [-]rd, Lin Ximeng held a spring banquet in the palace.

Xie Chenyu appeared at the spring banquet, chatting and laughing with the imperial concubine as if nothing had happened.

Lin Ximeng couldn't help but sigh in her heart, why bother.

That night, Lin Ximeng decided to have a showdown, and knelt at Xie Chenyu's feet to pour out all her difficulties.

"A concubine is determined not to have children in this life"

"I don't want to see him struggling in the deep palace"

"Although my concubine is not talented, I also know that you have been riddled with holes all these years."

"The concubine does not want my child to live in such a deep palace"

"I don't want to let him lose his freedom"

Xie Chenyu's eyes dimmed a bit.

"How do you know that he will lose his freedom? How do you know that he will not accept this thousand miles of land"

Lin Ximeng smiled.

"That's why the emperor can have sex with other women, and the concubines will love him as their own children."

Xie Chenyu knew that the person in front of her was also riddled with holes, and her decision could hardly be changed.

She even made plans to break the jade.

Xie Chenyu closed his eyes.

"Okay, I see"

Lin Ximeng smiled and stood up: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding. Don't worry, my concubine will definitely treat my sisters and your children kindly."

Xie Chenyu didn't turn around to leave again, but just hugged her: "Stop talking, if you don't want it, then you don't want it"
