Chapter 869
This morning, the second concubine met, and when they talked about what happened last night, both of them felt a bit regretful: it was better for the second concubine to accompany Meng Xiaoben to practice last night if the maids were taken advantage of in vain.

Therefore, the two agreed to find an explanation with Meng Xiaoben tonight.

After receiving the imperial physician's words, the second concubine became more determined to find an explanation tonight.

After the three of them finished their dinner, suddenly the chief eunuch played outside the door: "Your Majesty, Princess Mengye and General Renshan's wife are here to attend the bed. Please drive me back to the inner hall."

When Meng Xiaoben heard it, he couldn't help being surprised: What?Princess Mengye came...to serve her bed?
Where did this come from!

Isn't Princess Mengye already married to General Renshan?

According to the imperial decree, the two got married tonight.

Why, she actually went to the palace... to attend the bedroom?
Is there any mistake!

Meng Xiaoben looked at the second concubine in confusion, and asked, "Did you hear what the chief eunuch said outside the door?"

The faces of all the second concubines changed, and they immediately lost the look of enthusiasm just now, looking at each other in frustration.

"Did you hear me? Why didn't you answer me? Why are you upset?"

Meng Xiaoben asked a series of questions.

Huang Fei turned her body away, turned her back to Meng Xiaoben, and said sourly: "Our ears are not stuffed with donkey hair, how can we not hear clearly?"

"Understood, tell me now!"

Concubine Huang kept her mouth shut.

Meng Xiaoben went to grab Concubine Huaxian's wrist again, and asked eagerly, "You said..."

Huaxian also had a sour look on her face, pushed Meng Xiaoben's hand away, and said: "The chief eunuch said, Princess Meng Ye will serve you in bed, so you should go back to the inner hall quickly."

As he spoke, he tried to push Meng Xiaoben away.

"Princess Mengye? This...what the hell is going on?"

Meng Xiaoben is completely fooled!

"Did you two explain it clearly to me? From the looks of you, you seem to understand what's going on. I'm the only one who is kept in the dark!"

The two were still silent, but Concubine Huang lowered her head, a tear flowed from her beautiful eyes.

Meng Xiaoben hurriedly wiped away the tears for her, and said softly: "Your second concubine only cares about silence, why didn't you explain it to me?"

Seeing this, Huaxian sighed, and said: "I'd better tell you. Here we are very backward. Every country, to be precise, every tribe has a custom. If the king bestows marriage to someone, Then, the bride must spend the first day with the king. This is a symbol of royal power and a means to maintain the rule of the king."

"A means to maintain the royal power? Where does it come from?" Meng Xiaoben couldn't figure it out at all. This has a dime relationship with maintaining the royal power?
"If you think about it carefully, in this way, the first child born to the bride is likely to be the king's child. The bride's husband will later raise a prince of royal blood at home. In this way, the king and ministers, Wouldn't it strengthen the sharing of benefits? One prospers, one prospers, one declines."

Oh, I see.

However, the bridegroom still hates the king?
Meng Xiaoben expressed this worry.

Huaxian smiled and said: "You think too much. What you are talking about is about your era, but now, you are in a period of more than 1000 years before you, and people's ideas are different. For example, today, General Renshan not only does not know If I hate you, I will feel that the emperor's grace is mighty!"

I go!

Meng Xiaoben suddenly realized!

This is how the ancients thought!

Thinking about it carefully, Meng Xiaoben is also a little enlightened: In some ancient tribes, this disgusting system has been popular for thousands of years!

Existence must be reasonable?
Then... Meng Xiaoben's heart moved!
After all, Princess Mengye's heroic appearance on the battlefield is vivid in my mind.Meng Xiaoyao couldn't help yearning for it.

However, Meng Xiaoben still couldn't pass the test by taking someone else's new wife: Are you sorry?

Excuse me.

"Forget it!" Meng Xiaoben waved his hand, "I have your second concubine, do I still like other women?"

"This..." Huaxian shook her head, "As a king, you can't help yourself."

"I'm the king, I'm the king. I'll take a look tonight. Can someone tie me up in front of Princess Mengye?"

When the second concubine heard this, she stood up and wanted to leave.

"What, are you leaving?"

Meng Xiaoben asked anxiously.

Huang Fei smiled bitterly and said: "If we don't leave, won't we miss your good deed? My lord, you go back to the inner palace, Princess Mengye is already waiting for you, don't hurt her heart!"

Saying so, Princess Huaxian picked up the Three Realms Phantom Crown that Meng Xiaoben put on the table, and put it on him: "Quickly restore your kingly appearance, and go to Princess Mengye."

Meng Xiaoben was pushed out by the second concubine.

Go out and see the chief eunuch waiting outside the door.

Seeing that the king had finally come out, the chief eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it's getting late. Princess Mengye is already waiting in the inner hall. Your Majesty is welcome to come!"

I go!

Although Meng Xiaoben understands the truth, he still finds it ridiculous: it's real!

"Your Majesty, please get on the sedan chair and return to the palace!"

The chief eunuch bowed his head and played.

A dragon chariot has already stood under the hall.

If Meng Xiaoben does not get on the dragon chariot at this time, I am afraid that everyone will be suspicious, and everyone will wonder: Why did the king suddenly change?The old kings were not like this!

In that case, will you suspect that my king is a fake?

No, I have to pretend to be the end of this play, and I can't be seen through.

As a last resort, he got on the dragon chariot and returned to the inner hall.

The maid walked out of the palace, turned around and closed the palace door.

Meng Xiaoben walked over slowly, and sure enough, he saw a newcomer sitting on the dragon couch.

She was wearing a big red dress, with a red hijab covering her head, her hands were white, resting on her knees, motionless.

But if you look closely, she has a beautiful figure, long body and thin waist, she is really an extreme beauty.

Thinking of her slashing and galloping on the battlefield this morning, I never imagined that as a bride, she is so feminine. Putting any man who is not in prison here will inevitably be impulsive. She wants to go up and lift the red hijab to find out her true colors. up.

Meng Xiaoben stood a foot away from her, seeing her feet from head to toe.

Wear a pair of embroidered silk shoes on your feet.

No foot binding!

Hehe, yes, this time is the Tang Dynasty, and there is no bad habit of foot binding yet.

"Princess Mengye..." Meng Xiaoben didn't know what to say, and he didn't have the courage to lift the hijab, so he just let out a soft cry.

Princess Mengye moved her feet, leaned slightly on the bed, and responded softly: "Your Majesty!"
