Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 453
"Your Majesty, besides, we can add fuel to the rumor that Dutu is not dead, creating rumors that Baosi has an unforgettable old love for Dutu and spread among the people, making rumors that Baosi is too lewd. Afraid not to call Baosi the Daji of the Shang Dynasty?" Chonghua stared at Concubine Jiang, and the master and servant laughed.

Although the Jianjia Palace in the Xinggong Palace is not as elegant and quiet as the capital city, it is exquisite and beautiful, but it also has a deep courtyard and sparse shadows of bamboo forests, which are reflected on the carved window lattices, making people feel relaxed and happy.Although it was the first month, the demure and elegant Bao Si could still be patient and open the book quietly leaning on the railing.

"My lord, good news. The king has listened to Master Cheng Rong's suggestion, and has decreed to demote Fang Jin, the Duke of Hua, Song Yan, Zhou Tong and others who took the lead in making troubles, as a way to show less punishment. That domineering Mr. Huan has finally given up all his previous efforts and lost all his face!" The pearl curtains in the bedroom were rippling with the wind, and the elated Axi jumped into the room and reported to Bao Si happily.

"Great, Axi, this time we can turn defeat into victory, thanks to Cheng Rong and Lord Baoshang in the court, but Axi, I don't think things are that simple. What the king said to me is very suspicious." Bao Si pointed out delicately.

"My lord, what's going on?" Axi asked in surprise.

"Ah Xi, when the king was angry yesterday, he suddenly blurted out a sentence, which means that I will never forget my old relationship with Du Tu." Bao Si said sensitively.

"My lord, your Majesty is so confused, Mr. Jutu has passed away for almost two years, why are you mentioning him again?" Axi said in shock.

"No, Axi, have you heard a rumor recently? It is said that Dutu did not die in battle and is still alive now." Bao Si stared at Axi seriously.

"Well, this servant really hopes that Young Master Die Tu is still alive, but, how is this possible? Even An Tong," Ah Xi pouted.

"I'm just worried that the person who made up this rumor is trying to take the opportunity to make trouble!" Bao Si gritted his teeth facing the Linghua mirror.

In the Peony Pavilion, it was already dusk, just as Minggong entered the bedroom, there was the sound of nobleman Huan sobbing weakly. In front of Minggong, nobleman Huan knelt down and kowtowed to Minggong.

"Huan'er, what are you doing? The previous dynasty was just your brother's mistake, and it has nothing to do with you. Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself like this? Don't worry, my love for you will not change. No, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I still want to watch you dance the Shaole dance." Minggong lifted the delicate Huan nobleman with distress, and gently wiped the tears on Huan nobleman's face.

"Your Majesty, I know that I shouldn't cause trouble for the King, but I'm afraid that because of my concubine, I'm afraid that because of my concubine, it will bring bad luck to my natal family." The nobleman Huan lay in Ming Gong's arms. Li said coquettishly.

"Huan'er, don't worry, no matter what, I will love you and look after you. Duke Hua is also an important minister of the country, and I will not make things difficult for him." Ming Gong's comforting words, like a spring breeze, blew out the Peony Pavilion all the lights.

After a few days, I heard that Ming Gong stayed in the nobleman's bedroom every day, while Jianjia Palace was deserted and deserted. Concubine Jing and Concubine Ge, who were quite soft-spoken, came to visit Baosi one after another, trying to fight for Baosi's injustice.

Bao Si happily looked at Concubine Jing and Concubine Ge, and gently comforted her: "You two sisters, you don't have to worry about this palace. Your Majesty is a wise king, and he will not mess around."

"But empress, we're afraid that nobleman Huan is a coquettish woman who specializes in confusing the king. Besides, her natal family is very powerful. If nobleman Huan gains power in the harem, she will definitely promote her natal family. At that time, your empress will have a miserable life." It's going to be hard." Jingpin reminded with concern.

"That's right, empress, don't underestimate Mrs. Huan. Her favor may be manipulated by Concubine Jiang behind the scenes. The concubine has visited Concubine Jiang many times, and secretly feels that Concubine Jiang must have something to hide." Conspiracy, please be careful, Empress Dowager." Concubine Ge also persuaded earnestly.

Bao Si said happily, "Thank you two sisters for your concern, I know what to do."

"Empress, according to my concubines, instead of allowing the nobles to favor you, it is better to cultivate a few beautiful ones to serve the king and share the favor of the nobles, so that the nobles will not be able to threaten the status of the empress. My concubine sees that the beautiful girls Song Xue and Zhou Ximei who have just entered the palace are top-notch figures, will your empress consider summoning them?" Concubine Ge suggested.

"Okay, then let the two girls meet." Bao Si nodded.

After a while, two beautiful girls, Yingyingyanyan, delicate and delicate, entered the room gracefully and bowed to Baosi, and greeted Baosi softly. Baosi carefully looked at the two beautiful girls, but Seeing their beauty in Chunshan, they couldn't help but feel happy, and asked kindly: "Two beautiful girls, please report your name."

A few hours later, when Concubine Ge and the others left about summoning Xiunu, Axi, who was a little worried, reminded Baosi inwardly: "My lord, why do you need to set up a few more enemies for yourself? After fighting against Huan After the nobleman, add these two, won't the little master never have peace?"

"That's right, I don't want to push these two girls into the fire, but for a while, I was so anxious that I couldn't think of a way to deal with Concubine Jiang's group, so I had to take one step at a time." Bao Si frowned slightly.

This day is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the so-called Shangyuan Festival, inside and outside the Lishan Palace, there are bright lanterns shining, stretching for miles, and the palace ladies are wearing red festive dresses, lingering and shuttling, very lively , Bao Si, who never liked the excitement, climbed a rockery with a smiling A Xi, looking at everything in front of her.

"My lord, everything will be fine. It's ready. Tonight's Shuilong Shuren Palace banquet, while the nobles are going to dance Shaoyue dance, we will send Song Xue, a beautiful girl with heavy make-up, to appear on the stage. Believe me, with The king will definitely be tempted by Song Xue's beauty." Axi said confidently.

Amidst the lingering celestial music, the annual Shangyuan Festival royal banquet has already begun. Under the arrangement of the eunuchs, the lords of the palaces took their seats one after another according to their respective ranks. Everyone wore colorful auspicious clothes.

Ming Gong was in high spirits, Rou Nie, who was obsessed with the new favorite of nobleman Huan, took his seat first, nobleman Huan took the opportunity to stand up, bowed to Minggong and said: "My lord, on this beautiful occasion, my concubine is willing to perform a dance to wish Your Majesty the King bows to peace."

"Okay, I will definitely have to wait and see the singing and dancing of my concubine." Ming Gong said kindly.
