Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 492
"Xinyue, there is a rumor circulating in the capital that Jutu is still alive. I want to know, what do you think?" In Jiangxue Pavilion, Ming Gong, the emperor of the Great Zhou who was extremely tired, lay reclining on a soft couch, with a Clutching Xinyue's bright wrist, she asked emotionally.

"Your Majesty, these are all nonsense rumors spread by the outside world. Even if they are, why have I never heard of them?" She Yue replied lightly.

"If Que Tu is really still alive, do you want to stay by my side, or by Jue Tu's side?" Ming Gong stroked his beard and stared at Xinyue, his eyes full of ripples.

"My lord, do you dare to come back, Mr. Qutu? Shameless slander abounds in the court. Spreading rumors and maliciously framing are commonplace. Assuming that Qutu is alive, the ministers and concubines will definitely not dare to return to the court. As an official, it makes no difference whether Qutu is dead or alive?" Xinyue replied wittily.

"Well, Xinyue, it's you who understand the widow!" Hearing what Xinyue said, Ming Gong couldn't help but become amiable.

"Report to the King, the nobleman of Song has something to see." At this moment, Xiao Ruzi, the former imperial eunuch outside the palace, came in and saluted obsequiously.

"Song Guiren? I didn't summon her, why did she come?" Ming Gong suddenly became troubled.

"Your Majesty, since Sister Song has worked so hard to come here, let's see you." Xinyue quickly persuaded her.

"Okay, Xiao Ruzi, let Song Guiren come in and talk." Ming Gong waved his hand impatiently.

After a while, Song Guiren dressed in plain clothes came in and bowed to Ming Gong. Ming Gong looked at Song Guiren's attire coldly, and couldn't help but curiously said: "Song Guiren, you are only twenty-eight years old, you should dress up more, why bother?" So plain?"

Song Guiren replied softly: "My lord, this is all caused by the empress who infected my concubine. The empress advocated the reduction of the harem. The concubine thinks what the empress said is right, so I want to do my part."

"Oh, that's how it is. Under the dominion of the empress in the harem, I am very relieved to be so conscientiously diligent and thrifty. Mr. Song, you are doing the right thing. Today, I will reward you with a pair of jade bracelets!" Yan Dayue immediately ordered the court lady Rou'er to fetch a colored lacquer box.

"My concubine, I would like to thank the king for the reward, but the king and the empress are too self-cultivating, making the Jianjia Palace quiet and quiet. If things go on like this." Song Guiren frowned slightly, and half-spoken.

"Well, it's rare for nobleman Song that you have such kindness. I will often go to the queen's place." Ming Gong looked back at Xinyue, and couldn't help but chuckled.

The tassels of the curtain trembled, and after Song Guiren left, Ming Gong quietly explained to Xinyue: "Song Guiren is such a frank heart, he won't hide his words, you must not take it to heart. "

Xinyue smiled sweetly and said, "What are you talking about, my lord? My concubines have always respected the empress and empress. These days, I am fortunate to be favored by the king, and I have been dominating the king. My concubines are also very sorry."

"Well, you sisters are deeply in love. In this way, my harem will no longer give me a headache." Ming Gong said with a sudden smile.

"My Majesty, Concubine Jiang came to pay her respects." Before Jiangxue Pavilion could catch her breath, Xiao Ruzi came to report again, saying that Concubine Jiang had come to pay her respects. Ming Gong immediately looked serious and ordered Xiao Ru The child opened the thin curtain.

Soon, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, the gorgeously dressed Concubine Jiang came in to greet her with a smile on her face. Minggong saw her red lips and white teeth, and her temples were like lacquer. So bright and eye-catching?"

Concubine Jiang pretended to be confused and said, "Why did your majesty say such a thing? Ever since she traveled west to Beijing, the harem has always been so extravagant, and the empress has never restricted the clothes of her concubines. If you don't believe me, please ask your majesty to summon younger sister Ge Fei and Mrs. Mei, Your Majesty Jing, they are already the same."
