Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 813
The music stopped, and the two women dancing in the hall also stopped. They looked at each other and saluted to Emperor Jing together.

Because they were from Dongyang, what the two of them were doing was Dongyang etiquette. Emperor Jing looked away and looked at the Dongyang envoy.

"Your Majesty, these are the beauties that I, Dongyang Jin, present to you. These two beauties are well-known in our Dongyang."

Songs and dances are popular in Dongyang, and there are many music workshops. Even girls from ordinary families can go to the music workshops to work.

Most of the girls in the music workshop are performers but not their bodies, they are equivalent to Qingmen in Xing'an brothels.

However, because Xing'an and Dongyang have different customs, they have different ideas on many things.

Qingguan in Dongyang are still women from good families, but in Xing'an, even Qingguan are still prostitutes.

Emperor Jing knew Dongyang's customs, and so did many people present.

However, knowing it is one thing, and how to deal with it is another.

As soon as the Dongyang envoy's words fell, Shen Hao stood up and looked at the Dongyang envoy with a sneer, "What is the envoy's intention? Send prostitutes to Xing'an, and give them to Xing'an Emperor. Could it be that you look down on Xing'an?"

When Shen Hao opened his mouth, Emperor Jing didn't open his mouth anymore. There was no need for him to say such a thing himself.

"This... this... this is really unfair. In our Dongyang, the girls from Lefang are actually more noble than girls from ordinary families. If it weren't for this, how dare we treat the two of them as tributes?"

Looking at Shen Hao, Dongyang envoy explained anxiously.

"You also said that in your Dongyang, this is not Dongyang, but Xing'an. No matter whether you are a noble girl or not, you are a prostitute in Xing'an."

With a cold snort, Shen Hao spoke again. There was an arrogant side in his character, otherwise he wouldn't have openly robbed Su Qinghan of a woman at the palace banquet.

However, that was all in the past, and now his character has been restrained a lot, but if he is restrained, he still needs to be divided into some occasions. In this occasion, he should show arrogance.

"Please forgive me, His Majesty the Emperor. Dongyang really has no malice." Dongyang envoys naturally knew what kind of prostitutes in Xing'an existed. Although most of them were forced to do so, they had a bad reputation after all.

The Dongyang envoy knelt down, and the rest of the Dongyang people also knelt down immediately. Emperor Jing sat at the head, looked at the Dongyang envoy who was kneeling on the ground, and glanced at Shen Hao.

"Messenger, now, do you still want to present the beauty you brought to our Xing'an emperor?"

Shen Hao was looking at Emperor Jing, and when he saw Emperor Jing looking at him, he spoke again.

Now that he has opened his mouth, it is natural to do it to the end. Shen Hao's voice is full of coldness. After all, he is a decisive general on the battlefield, so in terms of momentum, Dongyang's envoys can't lift their heads.

"No...don't dare anymore." Kneeling on the ground, Dongyang envoy lowered his head very low. Seeing him like this, Shen Hao was very satisfied.

"Your Majesty, the general suspects that the envoy did not intend to do so. After all, the rules of Dongyang are different from ours in Xing'an. Since the envoy of Dongyang has already known his mistake, the emperor will forgive him."

After Shen Hao's black face sang, Su Qinghan stood up and saluted Emperor Jing.

"Well, what does Shen Qing think?" After hearing what Su Qinghan said, Emperor Jing looked at Shen Hao and asked.

"If you go back to the emperor, the general thinks what General Su said is very true. If so, then forgive the envoy. As for the beauties, let him take them back and give them to the emperor of Dongyang. After all, these two beauties lived in Dongyang. Very famous."

Shen Hao saluted to Emperor Jing, and responded with a smile. When he said so, Emperor Jing nodded and looked at the Dongyang envoy who was kneeling on the ground.

"The envoy, please stand up. Did the envoy hear what the two generals said?"

Calling the envoy of Dongyang to get up, Emperor Jing asked, and the envoy of Dongyang quickly responded and stood up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the emperor, I understand, and please forgive my sins."

After Shen Hao's beating, Dongyang's envoy's attitude became more respectful. When Dongyang's envoy first arrived in the capital, it was said that his attitude was very arrogant.

Originally, Emperor Jing also ordered Su Qingyan to host a banquet, but because he heard the report from the post station officials, he canceled the reception.

After waiting for Dongyang envoys for a long time, taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Emperor Jing finally let them enter the palace.

I thought they would restrain themselves a bit, after all Dongyang is a small country, they came to Xing'an because Xing'an destroyed Xidi, so Dongyang was afraid.

Unexpectedly, during the palace banquet, Dongyang's envoy got two women from Dongyang Music Square to present to him.

As an emperor, there is no shortage of women. Although it is not impolite to send a woman, it is a great impolite to send a woman from Lefang.

Not only is it disrespectful, but it will also damage Xing'an's reputation.

If Emperor Jing accepts it, perhaps one day, rumors will spread from all over the world, saying that Emperor Xing'an is hungry and hungry, and even the women in Lefang will not be spared.

Therefore, these two women cannot be accepted, and Emperor Jing does not intend to accept them.

"Sit down." After giving an order, Emperor Jing waved his hand, and the singing and dancing continued.

Because of the previous incident, the envoy of Dongyang didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he could only respond and take his seat again.

Su Qingyan sat in her seat, looking at everything in the hall, with a smile on her lips all the time.

The palace banquet returned to tranquility, and it was not until the end of the banquet that Emperor Jing ordered Kang Ninghai to read out the will of Dafeng Harem.

After reading the imperial decree, Concubine Rong turned her head and looked at Qi Zhaoyi. At this time, Qi Zhaoyi lowered her head and couldn't see her expression.

Even so, Royal Concubine Rong could guess how Qi Zhaoyi was feeling at this moment.

The concubines who came to the palace banquet today, except for her and Concubine Chen, were almost all canonized, only Qi Zhaoyi, nothing changed.

It's normal for me to be an imperial concubine, and my position will not change. After all, the empress is above the imperial concubine. will change.

As for Qi Zhaoyi, her father was sent to Xidi, and was promoted to be a minister. Logically speaking, her status should have changed, but after reading the edict, there is nothing about her.

Thinking of how uncomfortable Qi Zhaoyi would feel, Ronghuang Guifei couldn't help showing a smile on her face.

In the hall, not only the Royal Concubine Rong looked at Qi Zhaoyi, but also other concubines also looked at Qi Zhaoyi.

For Qi Zhaoyi, some concubines are still jealous. After all, they are not favored and have no children. Everyone's starting point is almost the same.

Under such circumstances, Qi Zhaoyi not only became Zhaoyi, but also had the right to be in charge of the harem, even if it was not much, it was an honor.
