Harem strategy

Chapter 89
As long as Empress Zhao acts according to her duties, her position will be secure.

The third prince's birthday is on the second day of July, and at the end of June, Empress Zhao was arranging this matter, discussed it with Li Jialuo, and then it will be held in Li Jialuo's Wananxuan.

The concubines in the palace all gave auspicious things, and the officials outside the palace also gave things in various ways.

At the end of June, Wan Anxuan had collected a lot.

Of course, not all of them will be placed on Zhuzhou's table. After some selection, it will be decided at the end. Li Jialuo personally selected them and asked Amber to put them away.

Concubine Jing took the second prince to Li Ronghua's residence, Li Ronghua was a little at a loss, Concubine Jing despised her in her heart, she was born as a palace maid who was not on the stage, seeing her trembling appearance, it would not be of much use to give birth to a prince.

"I don't know if the emperor gave things to the third prince this time. When our second prince caught Zhou, he didn't let it go. But at least the jade pendant given by the empress dowager is pretty good. Li Ronghua, the first prince caught Zhou. Did the emperor put anything at the time?"

Li Ronghua shook his head and said: "The concubine doesn't know, the eldest prince was with Wang Xianfei at that time."

That's right, this Li Ronghua's status was lower back then, and she couldn't raise her own son, so she didn't even have the opportunity to go to see him.

"Forget it, why did I tell you this? You don't understand." Concubine Jing suddenly felt that she would lose face by saying those things to this Li Ronghua.

Originally, I wanted to 'talk' on Li Ronghua's side, which made Li Ronghua feel uncomfortable. Looking at her like this, it would be nice to be able to stay in the harem. How can she have that ability?

Just thinking about the emperor's special love for the third prince made Concubine Jing feel uncomfortable.

Concubine Jing regretted once again, why did she have to drink the oxytocin at that time, otherwise the emperor would not like the child she gave birth to?And it's still in the front, more qualified than the third prince.

On the second day of July, the Third Prince’s Catch Zhou Ceremony, the Queen Mother showed her face at that time, and then left, because she was fasting these days, so she needed to meditate, if it wasn’t for the Third Prince’s Catch Zhou Ceremony, she would not come out to meet people of.

Concubine Jing likes it in her heart, but this is different from her second prince's treatment, which shows that the Queen Mother still likes her second prince.She absolutely did what the Empress Dowager said, she must find a genius doctor to take care of the second prince's body.

The emperor naturally came to the scene, and the third prince Xiao Luo grabbed a small golden sword, and then grabbed a solitary ancient book, and was praised for being both civil and military.

The emperor was also very happy, but he didn't like to reward the jade pendant like the queen mother.

After the lively Catch Ceremony, the weather got hotter, and Li Jialuo didn't want to go out for a stroll, so he spent most of the day in Wan Anxuan.

"Concubine Hui, the emperor invites you." The little six came over with a smile again.

Li Jialuo asked: "The emperor only let me be alone? Isn't he called the third prince?"

The little six laughed and said: "The emperor said that the weather is hot, the third prince must be taking a nap, so there is no need to hug him, let the third prince sleep well."

I am not afraid of the heat anymore. Sure enough, the most important thing for a man is his own flesh and blood. Li Jialuo was a little amused, and said: "Then the little six father-in-law will lead the way." She just changed her clothes, and there is no need to change another one .

The emperor was in the front hall where he lived indifferently, and he was looking at the booklet. Li Jialuo said with a smile: "The emperor called the concubine to come over. Could it be that there is something good for the concubine?"

The emperor smiled and said: "If you don't have good things, you can't be called Aifei? I called you here to fan me. Why don't you hurry up?"

"It turned out that the concubines were called here to work as coolies. The concubines are really hard-working. At night, they have to fan the younger ones, and during the day, they have to fan the older ones."

The emperor heard this, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "It's hard to embarrass my concubine. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. Come and sit here."

Li Jialuo was a little hesitant, "Your Majesty, here, the concubine should come here after you have finished." After all, she is a concubine, and she is a concubine

It's not good to watch from the sidelines, isn't it said that concubines are not allowed to do politics?This is a bit involved.

"If I tell you to sit, sit down. I am dizzy reading these papers, and the writing is so long-winded, what a waste of paper!"

Li Jialuo picked up the palace fan next to him, fanned the emperor gently, and said with a smile: "The emperor's courtiers are all talented, and they must write splendid articles in order to appear in front of the emperor."

"What's the use of this? I've said it several times to make them less verbose, but the result is still the same. I'm upset to see it. It's a very simple thing. I'm afraid that others won't know how knowledgeable he is. It's a waste of money." My time is this general, I don’t know how to write something like this, and it will be caught by others, which will give me a headache.”

Li Jialuo thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, when the concubines first entered the palace, the palace people who gave them to the concubines didn't know what the concubines liked and liked, but after less than half a month, they knew, your majesty. Guess what happened?"

The emperor said: "I must have found out from the girl you brought into the palace." He knew that Concubine Hui had a maid brought from home.

Li Jialuo shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then these palace people are too unmotivated. Look, what's the matter?"
All the sons inquired with the maid brought by the concubine, wouldn't they all be under this maid from now on?Now that you have entered the palace and followed the master, you definitely want to gain the trust of the master, not through others. What the concubine does is actually very simple. As long as the concubine shows what she likes, they will They will naturally understand what the concubine needs, so within half a month, these palace people will only listen to the concubine instead of having their own ideas. "

Li Jialuo is just talking, the emperor is a smart man and knows what to do. In the palace, relying on your beauty, it is absolutely nonsense to let the emperor have a place for you in his heart. There are many beautiful women in the palace. No one is bad.

Letting the emperor talk to you and get inspiration from it will get twice the result with half the effort, and they are all small things in daily life.

"It would be great if my affairs were that simple. If I only let my ministers do as they like, then there will be no upright ministers in the future!" But there are many scruples, and you can't do things with your heart, otherwise it will be a big mistake.

"Your Majesty," Li Jialuo said with admiration, "The subjects of Da Chu are lucky to have an emperor like you!" A restrained emperor is definitely a good emperor.

"Your Majesty can say this, and the concubines are not worried about the Emperor doing bad things at all, so the Emperor's preferences are definitely beneficial to the subjects of Da Chu!"

He can restrain himself, and he can also think of the harm his own preferences will do to the common people. Such a king, he is a good king!

Listening to Aifei's words, the emperor said with a smile: "When did Aifei's mouth become so sweet? I'm a little overjoyed!"

"The concubine is telling the truth, and she is definitely not coaxing the emperor to play. Your majesty, didn't you say that you are dizzy? The concubine rubbed your forehead for you, what do you think?" Li Jialuo said.

The emperor nodded, "That's fine." Li Jialuo stood up and rubbed the temples on both sides of the emperor's forehead. The emperor didn't read the scriptures anymore, and felt very comfortable. He thought, Concubine Hui's statement was not unreasonable. For such an excerpt, let people submit a simple one first, and boast about it, and the rest of the people will know what's going on.Talking to Concubine Hui was easy, "Liu Yongquan, take this book away first." The emperor ordered, he had already read it almost, and Concubine Hui rubbed his acupuncture points, and he was so comfortable that he was about to fall asleep.

Liu Yongquan personally took the booklets away, and saw a court lady holding a bowl of tea, wanting to go in.

Liu Yongquan put away the booklet and was about to go out. When he saw this maid, he immediately scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing? Who let you in?"

The palace lady hurriedly said in a low voice: "The emperor wants to drink a bowl of tea at this time every day. Isn't that what you said, Eunuch? We can't delay it."

"No winks, is today the same as usual? Hurry down!" Liu Yongquan personally guarded the door.

Li Jialuo covered the emperor with a thin blanket, and stood aside by himself. The emperor just fell asleep on the step.

The emperor slept for half an hour, and when he woke up, he found that Concubine Hui was also asleep lying on the side.

He got up gently by himself, and when he wanted to hug Concubine Hui to the couch, Li Jialuo woke up and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, have you slept well?"

The emperor nodded, but wondered why he fell asleep so relaxed.He is really too relaxed in front of Concubine Hui now,

There is no defense at all. Is this good or bad?

When the emperor is suspicious, he is no exception. Every time he wants to sleep, he must be within the scope of his own control, so that he can sleep peacefully.

Now he fell asleep without any defense in front of Concubine Hui.

"Your majesty, what's the matter with you? Do you want to wash yourself off?" Seeing that the emperor hadn't spoken for a long time, Li Jialuo asked.

The emperor smiled and said: "It's okay, Aifei's massage technique is good, and my head is really not tired at all."

"That's because the emperor fell asleep. How can it be the concubine's credit? The concubine thinks that the emperor is too hard."

"Then I will have to bother my concubine to give me a lot of rubbing." The emperor said, "Did you often give your mother's flesh before?"

"That's right, because Chenqie's mother needs to do needlework to support me, her eyes often feel uncomfortable. Chenqie learned to massage, and sometimes she asked the doctor when she saw a doctor. The doctor said that Chenqie's approach was right. I have been rubbed by my concubine's mother for ten years, and I have become proficient in the technique, but no one has asked my concubine to rub it for her." Li Jialuo was melancholy for a while, and then said: "See what the concubine said? Don't dislike it, in the future the emperor needs, and the concubines will come over. In fact, if the emperor can find those doctors who can massage acupuncture points, the effect should be better."

The emperor smiled and said: "No matter how good those are, they have no feelings. They only regard this as a task and keep silent in front of me. They are afraid that I will be uncomfortable and angry. It would be better not to let them come over, my love." Concubine like this is very good." The emperor laughed at himself for his suspicion, Concubine Hui even gave birth to a child for himself, and all the honor and disgrace of her life were entrusted to her, how could she harm herself?

However, he can't be blamed for this, it's because of the paranoia that jumps out on its own, and there is really no way to think about everything.

"My concubine, please make me a cup of tea, I feel a little thirsty." The emperor said.

Li Jialuo nodded, and ordered people to bring all the tea sets.He stayed at the emperor's side until the afternoon when the weather turned cold, and then Li Jialuo went back from here.

Liu Yongquan sent Li Jialuo back with a smile on his face.He felt that there was nothing wrong with his eyes, and that the emperor treated Concubine Hui really differently.

But, thinking about the maid who brought tea today, Liu Yongquan's eyes changed.

"Did you find out?" Liu Yongquan asked Xiaoliuzi, "Why is the tea delivery person changed today, where is the original tea delivery person?"

Xiaoliuzi said: "Master, Yuying used to eat something bad and had diarrhea, so I asked today's tortoise to bring tea, and tortoise turned out to be working here at Danboju."

The tortoise shell turned out to be a palace maid, so the little six patted his thigh and said, "Master, it must be this tortoise shell who wants to climb high."

Otherwise, why did Yuying have diarrhea at this time, and she couldn't be in front of the imperial court for several days, this tortoise shell, he just took a look at it, she looks really good, can work as a job in Danboju, does she have any thoughts about the emperor?
Liu Yongquan said: "Fortunately, you are not that stupid! Find out who arranged this tortoiseshell to live in Danbo. This kind of person can also be in front of the imperial court."

He doesn't hate court ladies becoming masters, but the prerequisite is that if the emperor likes it, it can't be done by tricks, and it's still under his nose.

He Liu Yongquan has a lot of things in his hands, and it is not his business to arrange the affairs of people everywhere. Who knows that there is someone who wants to fish in troubled waters.

If you want to be courteous, choose a good time. When you see Concubine Hui coming, you are still rushing. What's the matter, you still want to compete with Concubine Hui?It's simply overpowering.

Moreover, the emperor should not let the emperor know about these things, otherwise he will be covered as a dereliction of duty.

The tortoise shell was originally a court lady who only helped Yuying, and when they returned to the palace, the tortoise shell would continue to live in Danbo.

The people who were originally arranged to live in indifferent are all top-notch, but if their xinxing is too high, it is not good.

Xiao Liuzi hurriedly went to investigate, and the court lady named Huobi had already been guarded.It was locked up far away from this indifferent residence.

Since being locked up, tortoise has been in a state of constant agitation. She felt that she hadn't done anything, but that sister Yuying had diarrhea, and it was not a big deal for her to replace sister Yuying once.

Otherwise, if the emperor really can't drink tea while waiting, wouldn't everyone be in bad luck?

Yes, that's it, that's what happened when she killed her, nothing else happened.

The door opened suddenly, and Tortoise saw that the little six's father-in-law came in surrounded by several people, and then someone put a chair in the middle, and respectfully asked the little six's father-in-law to sit down.

Little Six looked at the tortoise with interest, but didn't say a word.

The tortoise shell panicked even more, he hesitated and said: "Eunuch Liu, you, why did you lock me up here, what mistake did I make?"

Little Six smiled and said, "What did you do that you didn't know? Did you tell the truth yourself, or did you tell me to torture you?"

"Eunuch Liu, tortoise shell can't understand what you said."

"It seems that you won't cry when you see the coffin, someone should clear her mouth first."

The so-called clear mouth is to pour water into people's mouth desperately until the person can't stand it anymore.

There was only less than a pot of water, and the tortoise couldn't take it anymore. Little Six said: "Want to talk? If you don't want to talk, the next time you fill it will not be water!"

"I said, I said, sister Yuying was drugged by me to make her have diarrhea. I just wanted to show my face in front of the imperial court. I thought that if I did a good job, I could take it back to the palace. In this palace, Everyone said that if you stay here for a lifetime, you will be completely ruined. I don't want to be ruined, so I can only come up with this way. Liu Gonggong, please forgive me, I will never dare again!"

"Where did you get your medicine?" Little Six asked.

"He gave Mr. Li some money, and he had someone bring it back from outside. It's really just a laxative!" Tortoise shell said.

Manager Li?It is the chief steward of the summer resort, and the little six sneered, as expected, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys become kings.The surname Li has a good skill. If he can bring laxatives today, he can bring poison tomorrow!
How courageous!

"If what you say is a lie, my father-in-law will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow!" Xiao Liuzi said harshly.

"It's true, it's absolutely true. I dare not lie in front of my eunuch! If you don't believe me, you can check with Eunuch Li. They have asked us for money since they knew the emperor was coming. A good place to go, they desperately gave their savings to Mr. Li."
