It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 17

In the early morning, the sky had just turned pale, and the entire Longxi Palace was immersed in mist. The palace ladies in emerald green bijia and concubine-colored silk sash quietly guarded outside the bedroom of Longxi Palace, waiting for the emperor to wash up in the morning. towards.

Standing under the eaves, Wanfu felt that it was really cold today, his nose was full of coldness, why was it so hot during the day... In this damn weather, he ate a bowl of meat porridge in the morning, which was left over by the emperor yesterday, but I was a little anxious after drinking it, and now I still feel that my tongue is hot and uncomfortable.

But after a while, a tall maid with delicate features came over and said, "Eunuch Wan, I think it's almost time."

"Your Majesty hasn't woken up yet?" Wanfu said while looking at Xiuzhu with a smile. It turned out that this court lady was the master of ceremonies beside the emperor.

Xiuzhu nodded, and said with some embarrassment, "Your Majesty woke up early, just... I don't know why you can't get up."

Wanfu can't laugh now, it's fine to pamper Qiangui for the past few days, but if he got up late, it would be a great sin, he was running around under the eaves in a hurry, Xiuzhu was also in a hurry, thought for a while and said, " Eunuch Wan, why don't you remind His Majesty that it's time to wake up? Everyone knows that you are the most powerful person in front of Your Majesty, and your Majesty may listen to what you say." Xiuzhu tried her best to put a high hat on Wanfu, for fear that the emperor would really delay It's early, someone has to be the cannon fodder.

"Sister Xiuzhu, you are pushing me into the fire pit. Everyone knows that His Majesty hates people mentioning him the most." Wan Fuke still remembered that a few days ago, he angered the emperor by asking him if he would return to the Longxi Palace after the court. In terms of things, Emperor Qi Qing is different from others. He has his own opinions and hates being restrained the most. When he first took the throne, when eating, he used to eat up to three chopsticks for a dish, and if it was too much, he had to remove it. As soon as the eunuch said that Your Majesty, please be restrained, he was kicked by the furious Emperor Qi Qing. In the end, more than half of the people who served the meal were replaced, and they were all dead and closed. They scared everyone and dared not say anything anymore .

Someone even went to the Queen Mother to complain about this matter, saying that the emperor's actions violated the ancestral system, and the Queen Mother just left the person to dry, waiting for the person to stand in the sun until his mouth was dry, so she pulled her over to ask , who is the emperor in this imperial city?The man was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat and walked away dejectedly.

Xiuzhu looked at Wanfu, and Wanfu looked at Xiuzhu. The two of them were at a loss. Neither of them wanted to be cannon fodder. In the end, the two of them discussed that they should go together, and neither should use the other as a backstop. They were going to die together, right?

As a result, as soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw the emperor getting off the dragon bed lightly, his movements were so careful and gentle, for fear of waking up the people inside, he looked up and saw the two of them making silent movements.

This appearance made Wanfu and Xiuzhu's eyes straight!

In the end, the emperor washed and changed clothes in the side room, and then went directly to the court, but before leaving, he told her not to wake up the noble lady, and let her sleep well.

This will make Wanfu understand, dare not get out of bed because he is afraid of waking up the nobleman?

The court was very lively on this day, and the Cold Food Festival will be in a few days. Every year at this time, the emperor will hold a Cuju event to call on the young talents in Kyoto to show their skills. In terms of winning or losing, the winner will be rewarded by the emperor himself. She is gearing up and waiting to show her face in front of the emperor.

Everyone had a lively discussion. The emperor used to like to play Cuju, because he played very well before he took the throne. The team he led would win every year, and he often behaved in front of the late emperor. But now he is not happy. up.
