I am the carpenter king

() The moonlight is bright, insects chirping, and the palaces in the Forbidden City have been lit. Against the backdrop of the lights, the entire palace looks very bright and beautiful.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty loves Your Majesty very much during this time, and Your Majesty's status as a queen is unshakable." After inserting a gold hairpin on Empress Zhang's head, Xiaohuan said with a smile.

Shaking her head lightly, Queen Zhang said with a serious face: "Xiaohuan, whether it is outside or in this palace, there is only one way for women to keep their status, and that is to have a son. Although now I It's the empress, and the emperor also dotes on me, that's because I'm newlywed, but what about five years later? Ten years later? When I'm old and decrepit, then things won't be certain."

Nodding thoughtfully, Xiaohuan said with a smile: "What's the matter? The empress will definitely have a son, and he will be the future prince."

Glancing at Xiaohuan behind her, Empress Zhang said with some emotion: "Xiaohuan, you have been by my side since childhood, and I can't bear to part with you, but after all, this palace is not where you should live. This way! A few days ago, I told the emperor to let you go home! I will write a letter to my father and ask him to find you a good family and get married! That is the life a woman should live. "

"Your Majesty, this servant will never leave Your Majesty. For so many years, this servant has always been by your side. How can you be willing to do it!" Although Xiaohuan was moved, she said sadly with a look of reluctance on her face.

"Silly girl, that's the life a woman should have. Look at the maids in this palace, what kind of life are they living! Now I still have to be favored and have status, but who knows what will happen in the future?" How about it o? Go out of the palace! Find someone good to marry, that is the destination of a woman's life o ah!" Seeing that Xiaohuan was about to speak again, Empress Zhang waved her hand lightly, and continued: "Far away Let’s not talk about it, let’s just say that there are more than 40 concubines selected into the palace this time, besides me, Chunfei, and Liangfei. Looking at the current emperor, he thinks about the country, the family, and the country. He is a wise emperor. But for these women, it may not be a good thing. I am afraid that some of them will not even be able to see the emperor in their lifetime."

Seeing how miserable Empress Zhang said, Xiaohuan smiled and said, "Mother, maybe this is the truth! Some things are predestined, and no one can change them."

Gently shaking her head, Queen Zhang smiled and said: "Maybe! Xiaohuan, don't worry! I will write a letter to my father. You are my relative. The family will definitely find you a good one. do not worry!"

"I won't go. If I leave, there will be no one around the empress, and no one to talk about herself." Xiaohuan shook her head vigorously, her attitude was very firm.

Seeing Xiaohuan's attitude, Queen Zhang could only shake her head and smile wryly, without saying anything!

When Queen Zhang was preparing for the banquet, she might not have any burdens in her heart, but for the other two people, she was very nervous.Among these two people, one of them is Concubine Duan Chun who lives in Changchun Palace.

"Your Majesty, the clothes have been smoked, and the best red sandalwood incense is used!" A court lady came to Concubine Duan Chun holding a dress in her hand, and said respectfully.

Gently sniffing it, Concubine Duan Gui frowned, and said in a deep voice, "It's not delicious? Ling'er, how did you do it?"

The servant girl on the side smiled lightly, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, I have already inquired about it. The emperor doesn't like things that are too fragrant. In the emperor's bedroom, he never burns incense. So this dress is just right. , It’s too late, if it’s too fragrant, it will annoy the emperor, then the loss outweighs the gain.”

Glancing at the maid behind her, Concubine Duan Gui smiled and said with relief, "It's good to have you by my side. After so many years, you are the most caring."

The servant girl smiled, bowed to Concubine Duan Gui, and then said respectfully: "My maidservant, thank you Concubine Gui for your compliment."

"Okay, come here and help me get dressed." Calling the maidservants around to come over, Concubine Duan smiled softly, then turned her head and asked, "Who is here today? Is there any Concubine Lan?" ?”

"Go back to your empress, no. The servant girl asked the eunuch who came to pass the decree, only the queen and the empress, and Wang Guifei." The servant girl smiled softly and replied respectfully.

Nodding her head slowly, Concubine Duan Gui sighed, and said in a deep voice: "As soon as I entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and I don't know if the emperor is dissatisfied with us. It's been so long, and I haven't summoned the two of us. We are also suffering from the same disease.”

Taking Concubine Duan's tiara, the servant girl smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have inquired about it. Before we entered the palace, the emperor only loved Concubine Lan in this palace. But after the emperor got married, he loved the queen very much. Even now They are all accompanied by the empress to approve the memorials. So don’t worry, empress, there are people who are anxious to join the association.”

Glancing at the servant girl, Concubine Duan Gui smiled softly, and said in a deep voice, "What do you know? If Concubine Lan can give birth to a son for the emperor, then it will be the eldest son of the emperor. If the queen has no son, then it will be the prince. Even if the queen has a son, the status of the eldest son of the emperor can't be lowered, so as long as she can give birth to a son, the status of noble concubine Lan can't be changed. Unless the emperor wants to do something, but according to the emperor's love for her, I'm afraid there will be no such time .”

"But I heard that the emperor loves the empress very much, and I seldom go to Concubine Lan's place. No one can say for sure what will happen after this, if one day dies, then I can't be sure." The maid lowered her voice, Whispered in Concubine Duan's ear.

Shaking her head slowly, Concubine Duan Gui smiled and said: "You! Don't think that everyone is a fool, the emperor is wise! My father told me back then that the things that are under the sun are afraid that there will be no owner. If there is a master, no one dares to grab it. The wild beasts in the mountains run out, and there will be countless people chasing them, but after being killed, they will not be robbed. Why? That is because he has a master. Before we entered the palace, the emperor loved Concubine Lan, no one can say anything, because the emperor is only such a woman."

Glancing at the servant girl, Concubine Duan Gui sighed softly, and said in a deep voice: "But it's different now, the emperor has more women, and everyone wants to get more favors. But the emperor is just like this, and every day he will return to you." Most of the time is spent on military and state affairs. Then some battles are inevitable, just like what my father once said, there are more wolves and less meat!"

Slightly frowning, the servant girl asked a little puzzled, "What does that have to do with His Majesty's current attitude?"

"You have been with me for so many years, and it is not uncommon to see you at home. How many concubines does the master have? Have you ever seen a fight? Fight each other, who dares to cause big trouble? Who dares to make trouble for your husband?" Duan Guifei looked at The maid asked with a smile.

"Of course I didn't dare to trouble my husband, and I didn't dare to do excessive things, because the master and my husband have such a good relationship and treat each other with respect." Suddenly, the servant girl was taken aback, and looked at Concubine Duan Gui in surprise, in disbelief Said: "Your Majesty is talking!"

Nodding her head slowly, Concubine Duan Gui said in a deep voice: "That's it. What the emperor is doing now is to consolidate the position of empress. If the emperor still favors Concubine Lan at this time, once Concubine Lan gives birth to a son, she will have the throne Although the queen's son is justified, are there still few queens who have been abolished throughout the ages? At this time, the emperor is ignoring the noble concubine Lan and doting on the queen, even ignoring us two noble concubines. There is only one purpose, and that is to consolidate The status of the queen. The emperor wants all of us to know that the status of the queen is unshakable. Don't have any wrong thoughts. The family banquet tonight should be the emperor to see if we understand !"

Nodding half understanding, the servant girl said in disbelief, "There are so many things in here, how did the empress see it?"

Gently shaking her head, Concubine Duan Gui only smiled lightly, but did not speak.Naturally, she wouldn't tell the servant girl, it was her mother who told her, that's what her father did back then.Every newcomer who has just entered the house will be indifferent, let her know that things are hard-won, and she should cherish them carefully, and don't have extravagant thoughts.But Concubine Duan Gui was a little curious, how did this young emperor understand this?

"Your Majesty, can Concubine Wang Liang understand?" the servant girl asked curiously while putting the shawl on Concubine Duan Gui.

"The three of us this time are all from relatively well-to-do families, and they know about the same about these things, so no one doesn't understand." Concubine Duan Gui smiled lightly and said calmly.

Gently brightening the lights, Chen Hong walked slowly to Emperor Yaoqi's side, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and the three empresses have already arrived. Is Your Majesty going?"

Gently rubbing his forehead, Emperor Yaoqi smiled wryly and said: "As the saying goes, three women enter a play, this time I bring three women together, I don't know if there will be a good show, Alright, tidy up here! I'll go and have a look."

When Emperor Yaoqi came to the back, the three women were already waiting here, they didn't know what they were talking about, and laughter could be heard from a long distance away.

Walking into the room slowly, Emperor Yaoqi's expression was a bit weird, he took a few glances, and said with a smile: "What are you guys talking about?"

"My concubine sees the emperor!" Seeing the emperor Yaoqi coming, the three people hurriedly stood up to salute.

Waving to the three, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said: "Don't worry so much about being together as a husband and wife, you've been in the palace for a while, I'm really too busy, I've neglected you a bit, don't take it to heart! "

Several people sat down, Concubine Duan Gui smiled and said: "The emperor wants to be a wise king in the prosperous age, and it is inevitable to deal with all kinds of circumstances. How can the concubines be angry!"

Looking at the beautiful Duan Guifei and Wang Guifei, Emperor Yaoqi suddenly had an evil idea, is it possible?

Seeing that Emperor Yaoqi's gaze was not right, Concubine Duan immediately turned her mother's light to Empress Zhang who was asking for help.
