Chapter 74: Cute White-Tiger
Looking at the civil and military officials and princes and grandsons sitting next to him, the emperor's somewhat gloomy face raised a rare smile, he raised the wine bottle in his hand, raised his neck and drank it all. The bright red wine juice of the pen %fun %pavilion fell on the corner www.biquge.info of his lips, as if it were blood.
Seeing that the emperor had already drunk, the officials below were even more staggered, smiling happily, saying some words wishing the emperor a long life and a hundred years of prosperity and the prosperity of the Shangyuan Dynasty, and some pretentious talents even began to chant poems against each other, and the scene was very enthusiastic.
But in the face of such a scene, the Empress Gao next to the emperor was full of sadness, lowered her head and drank the Yuzao wine in front of her in small sips, without saying a word, as if she was out of step with this world.
She used to be a member of the Jixing Marquis Mansion, and she was already the crown princess when the emperor was still the crown prince. Like the people of the Gao family, the queen has a smooth forehead, a pair of low-hanging eyebrows pressing the eyes on those black and white eyes, and a straight nose bridge seems to be finely carved.
However, all of this has gradually faded under the erosion of time. I don't know from which day on, the emperor no longer entered Kunning Palace, and even when he talked to her, there was obvious alienation. The queen's eyes are no longer moving, they are often lowered, and there is no longer brilliance in their eyes, some are just lonely and bleak
Seeing that the emperor poured five glasses of wine into her stomach at once, the queen couldn't sit still, although the relationship between the husband and wife was indifferent, but from the bones, the queen still loved the emperor in front of her, and they also had tenderness and honey, but in the face of dazzling beauties and the consumption of time, they could never go back to the past.
"Your Majesty......" The queen's body leaned forward, gently put her hand on the emperor's arm that was about to pick up the wine glass, stared at him cautiously with sad eyes, and shook her head gently.
The Emperor's eyebrows furrowed, but before she could speak, she heard a sharp voice coming from the side.
"The queen mother, the emperor is also happy today, you see, such a good scenery, rare happiness, does the mother still want to interfere with the emperor?"
It was Sheng Meiren who was sitting on the other side of the emperor who spoke, she was now quite favored, and you only had to look at where she was sitting to know that she was the one who could speak to the emperor.
She is like a finely carved pearl and jade flower, and her soft posture is still tempting to sit like this, compared to those women in the harem, Sheng Xin's appearance is not very outstanding, but her personality is straightforward, she dares to speak in front of the emperor, and sometimes even dares to sit next to him when the emperor approves official documents, and occasionally plays a little temper to hang the emperor aside, such a thing, others dare not think of it, but Sheng Xin can do it, which is enough to prove her outstanding.
However, in the end, the foundation of the Sheng family is weak, his father was a teaching gentleman, and after many years of taking the imperial examination, he finally became an eight-grade governor of the Beijing Mansion Transportation Division, and he wanted to climb up again.
Who knew that he got a daughter who could speak well, but this daughter was elected to the palace, and she was just a palm, but later climbed into the emperor's bed and was named a beauty in one fell swoop.
But if such a woman wants to survive in the harem, she can only rely on herself. As soon as Sheng Meiren's words were finished, the queen's face was a little unsightly, but she didn't dare to reply, because Sheng Meiren's words represented the emperor.
"Sheng Meiren, the queen mother advises Your Majesty to drink less, this is a matter between their husband and wife, the queen mother rules the six palaces, everything is for the sake of Your Majesty, we should learn more like Niangniang, instead of being a villain who fanned the flames." Concubine Lan, who was sitting next to the queen, said quietly.
Sheng Meiren is young in the end, the queen has a sad face, she looks easy to bully, but this Lan Concubine uses the queen's authority to suppress herself from time to time, but the emperor doesn't care, it's really hateful!
"Concubine Lan Niangniang, Your Majesty rested at the concubine's place yesterday, this drinking, it also depends on the person, and some people just can't drink it, such as Concubine Niangniang, do you say?"
Concubine Ru, who had been sitting silently, smiled slightly, noncommittal.
For the verbal dispute between several of them, Jingru has always been unmixed, she adheres to the golden mean, does not cling to others, and does not compete for favor, this behavior makes her the most stable position in the harem.
Seeing that Concubine Ru didn't mean to speak for herself, Sheng Meiren pursed her lips, turned her head to the emperor and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, the concubine is a little uncomfortable and wants to go back to the palace to rest and rest." ”
This has just come out, and now he is actually shouting to go back, which is simply not giving the emperor face. The officials below were stunned for a moment, this Sheng Mei was really bold.
But the emperor was not annoyed, grabbed her slender waist and limbs, and laughed: "The beauty is disgusted with the heavy smell of wine on my body, so do you want to leave?" ”
Sheng Meiren's face turned red, and she lowered her head and said shyly: "It's not, it's just that the concubines don't like such an occasion, they are noisy and have a headache......
She made her posture weak, and lay down on the emperor's body along the chair, and her breasts were half exposed, which was really fragrant and gorgeous. But the emperor did not seem to find such a move frivolous at all, but seemed to be very interesting.
He thought about it, his face suddenly became serious, and he said to several concubines: "I took you out to be distracted, so I'll clean up and go back if I talk too much!" ”
As soon as these words came out, several people stopped talking, and the queen turned even whiter, this sentence was obviously said to her. Sheng Meiren looked at their sneering appearance, her face was extremely proud, and immediately poured another glass of wine for the emperor, giggling and persuading him to drink it.
"This Sheng Meiren is really shameless!"
"Yes, yes, look at her foxy appearance, it's a red face at first glance!"
"It is said that she used to be just a palace maid, and I don't know what means she used to climb onto the emperor's bed, so she was crowned a beauty!"
"Really? It's no wonder that his father climbed so fast, and saw that there were all snakes and rats! ”
The discussion below was endless, Jing Yan just listened silently, not much to say, she has never had much interest in other people's affairs, no matter what kind of beauty she is, as long as she does not harm her own interests, who cares about her.
At this time, the crown prince who was sitting at the bottom suddenly stood up, he was the eldest son of the queen, and when he saw his mother being bullied by a little beauty like this, he couldn't stand it for a while, so he subconsciously stood up.
"Father!"
"Does the prince have anything to say to me?"
The queen seems to know what her son is going to say, and desperately gives him a look, on such an occasion, it is a very unwise choice to anger the emperor, it is because this son is the crown prince, the queen can bear this breath, but if the prince also makes the emperor unhappy, then her previous forbearance will be in vain.
"Erchen ......"
"The prince wants to say that he caught a lot of prey in the hunting ground just now, and he knows that His Majesty loves these rare birds and beasts the most, and he wants His Majesty to be quiet!" The crown princess stood up and said softly and deferentially.
The prince turned his head and looked at his wife with a confused look, but the other party did not respond, but quietly grabbed the hem of his clothes with his hand and pulled him back to his seat.
"Oh? Prince, is that so? ”
The crown prince bit his lip, he understood the princess's intentions, but all this made him feel very aggrieved. But there is no way, whoever makes him the crown prince, all he can do is to conform to the emperor's will.
"Yes, father, not only the sons, but also the sons of King Zhao and the princes have gained a lot!"
The queen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Really? Haha, come, bring it to me quietly! The emperor pushed away the beautiful man who was leaning on him, as if he was very interested.
Sheng Meiren looked at the prince, smiled faintly, and didn't say anything.
Soon, the guards set up a fence in front of the banquet, and the wounded prey was thrown into the fence, and they looked in horror at the beautifully dressed people in front of them with smiling faces, and watched quietly, only to find that someone was staring at her not far away.
Do you really want to get your hands dirty? She bowed her head and smiled, she had already given you a chance, so in that case, let's play a little prank.
This time it was put into the bars a white tiger that was not yet an adult, and the most peculiar thing is that the markings on the white tiger were extremely shallow, and from a distance, it seemed to be an elegant landscape painting, which was very wonderful.
The emperor propped up his arms and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, this is a unique white tiger in the Western Jin Dynasty, which is also difficult to see locally, symbolizing auspiciousness and wealth." The second prince, Yu Wenlie, stood up and said.
"Lie'er, did you hit this?"
"It was *** who helped the sons and daughters to fight together, and the sons did not dare to ask for credit." Yu Wenlie seemed to be very respectful.
"Haha, good! Both of you are good sons of mine, so you should support each other to go further! As he spoke, the emperor ordered the white tiger to be raised well, and specially instructed him not to harm his life.
Because the tiger was still small and not lethal, the person in charge of raising it just poured some anesthetic into it. At this time, the strength of the anesthetic seems to have passed most of it. The little tiger gradually stood up, staring curiously at the people around him.
"Look, like a kitten!" Xu Shilang's daughter whispered.
"It's so pretty! Second sister-in-law, ...... you say" Wang Jing on the side did not finish speaking, but suddenly screamed.
The tiger cub, which was originally very docile, suddenly jumped up, and the hair on its body stood up suddenly, it was a very vigorous species on the grassland, not to mention the fence, even if it was a mountain wall and cliff, it dared to jump over.
The emperor was shocked and immediately said, "What's the matter! ”
This white-tiger rampaged through the crowd, those ladies had already lost their faces, although it was a young tiger, it was wild and untamable after all, if it was a little careless, it would be fatal!
Dozens of guards and servants pounced one after another, but the emperor said that he could not hurt his life, and the white tiger ran so fast that there was really no way to catch it.
At this moment, an exclamation was suddenly heard, and everyone's eyes immediately turned away, and they suddenly found that the white-tiger had actually climbed onto Shen Yuzhen's body!
