29. Concubine?
"Went on a date with a wild man behind my back?" Yan Xiaoran looked unforgiving: "Gu Shu, you are like this, in normal ancient times, you would be invaded into the pig cage." ”
I stiffened: "You're not asleep, how do you know I'm out?" ”
"Hmph." Yan Xiaoran looked at me mockingly, and that expression seemed to have recognized that I had betrayed him.
I stroked my hair: "Then don't you know what I'm going to do, and what do you have to ask me for?" ”
"I didn't go out with you." Yan Xiaoran raised her eyebrows: "Did I guess that I really dated a wild man?" His face changed suddenly, as if if if he would bite me if I said yes or yes.
I immediately clarified: "Of course not!" ”
Actually, I went to see the leader of the Dark Guard last night. Originally, when I first took over the secret guard, I should have gone to see it, but because of Yan Xiaoran's color blank, it was delayed and delayed until yesterday.
The leader of the Dark Guard was a man, and he covered his face, and I couldn't even see what he looked like. The other party only showed a pair of eyes outside, and I looked a little familiar, but I couldn't remember for a while, where I had seen it.
"陛xià." The other party clenched his fists and introduced himself: "His subordinate Mo Yan is the leader in charge of the entire secret guard." ”
I looked at him curiously, "Can you take your mask off and let me see what you look like?" ”
Mo Yan refused: "The dark guard is in the dark, and it is not suitable to see the light." ”
"It's night."
"Moonshine is also light."
I shrugged my shoulders, and since I didn't want to, then I didn't force it. This time we met, mainly to hand over the situation of the entire secret guard, so that I have a bottom in my heart, what kind of soldiers I have in my hands.
The number of dark guards is not large, only about a dozen, but all of them are masters of one top one, the kind that can be used as ten. I probably have a number in mind, but I still have a little doubt.
"You said you were good, why did you want to be a secret guard for the royal family?" It's not that I'm worrying, but I want to understand their original intentions and make sure they don't betray.
Mo Yan: "...... Subordinates have been dark guards since they can remember, and so are others. ”
Then I learned that it seemed like every generation of Dark Guards would adopt orphans and raise them to be the next generation. By Mo Yan's generation, it is already the fifth generation. When they don't have a task, they live a normal life just like normal people, some marry wives and have children, and some marry other people's wives. But when there is a mission, they will turn into the most ferocious beasts and hunt their targets.
After figuring out the general situation, I came back, and there was really nothing else to do.
Yan Xiaoran listened to me: "Why don't you call me along?" ”
I pursed my lips: "Don't you often say, don't rely on you too much, so I'll do it myself." I wanted to see if I could judge something for myself. ”
Yan Xiaoran looked at me for a while, then suddenly chuckled and asked, "Then what did you judge?" ”
I shook my head: "I don't see anything yet." ”
Yan Xiaoran sneered and said, "Gu Shu, it is possible that your father knows that you are a woman. ”
I was shocked: "How do you know? ”
"If those guards are really ubiquitous as you say, then what reason do you have not to believe that your father knows everything?"
It makes so much sense that I'm speechless. But what does it mean if my father knew that I was a woman, but still passed the throne to me? He can obviously announce my identity to the public, and then make Gu Chen the crown prince, so that I am not qualified to compete for the throne.
"I think, at that time, your father and the emperor must also hide your identity, although it is said that there are secret guards, but there are only more than ten people, even if they are powerful, they can't compare to thousands of troops." The role of the dark guard is just to do something unseemly, and the real big thing still requires a lot of people.
I suddenly understood the reason why my father would hand over the secret guard to the queen mother. But even so, I can't help but feel lost. I know I'm a girl, so why can't I be spoiled like my uncle spoiled Bao Jia.
Even if it's just once, that's fine.
Yan Xiaoran stretched out her hand and wrapped me into her arms: "Let's not be rare for him, Shu'er, you have me now." ”
I rubbed it in his arms: "Well, then you are not allowed to bully me in the future." ”
"When did I bully you?"
"Verbal contempt is not good."
"That's motivating you." Yan Xiaoran said in a sullen voice: "Actually, you don't have to envy Shen Baojia, even if Shen Jinzhong dotes on her, it's not because of interests that she marries someone she doesn't like." At least your father didn't take advantage of you like that. ”
His comfort is better than not comforting, I said angrily: "I guess at that time, my father didn't know whether to give me a concubine or find me a male prostitute." ”
Yan Xiaoran: "......"
Gu Chen went to recruit for me, and during this period, I said that I couldn't let Bao Jia marry Mo Changting. But before I could make a move, my uncle actually found me trouble.
On the morning of the first day after the New Year, I sat sleepily on the dragon chair, holding my head and looking at the group of ministers below who were just as languishing as I was. I thought that today would be a formality, there was no big deal, but who knew that a minister suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, you and the queen have been married for more than half a year, but the queen has not come out, which is really inappropriate." ”
Me: "...... mother, the housekeeper is in charge of my bed." I turned my eyes to my uncle, and these ministers would not have asked about this without his permission.
My uncle turned his head and stared straight at the roof of the main hall, but he didn't look at me, and the mustache on his lips was upturned to the sky.
As soon as the minister's voice fell, many courtiers seconded the proposal, thinking that the queen and I should have a child to ensure the continuation of my Nanling heirs, and some courtiers built a few more concubines, so that the success rate was a little higher, and some were even looking for concubines with me.
"The ......," I was about to speak.
A minister interrupted me and said: "Your Majesty, the little girl is twenty-eight years old, although she is not a sinking fish and a goose, but she is also the type of jasper of a small family. ”
Another minister immediately said: "Lord Wang, you are not ashamed to say this, just Ling Yuan's appearance, is it still called Xiaojia Jasper?" I think it's because of you, so I haven't married yet. Your Majesty, the little girl is not talented, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, virtuous and filial, if you can enter the palace, it must be your interpretation flower. ”
"Majesty, the minister's little daughter......"
"Little Girl......"
Yes, it's all recommended by me. I covered my forehead, I hadn't slept well last night, and now I'm here listening to a group of them recommending themselves like ducks, and my head hurts even more.
"Enough!" I roared.
"......" The entire Jinluan Hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at me with a frightened expression.
"Have you had enough of the noise?" I slapped the table in front of me: "Are you all ashamed?" Is this selling meat, or is it selling daughters? Do you want me to find you a scale and weigh your daughter how much is a pound? ”
"Sneer......" As soon as my voice fell, Bai Qingyan sneered, and he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is reasonable. ”
I glanced at him, and it was better than Bai Qingyan.
Who knows, Bai Qingyan said again: "Your lords are too anxious, at this time, you should go back and take out the names and portraits of Ling Yuan, and send them to the imperial study of Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty can choose them carefully." ”
Me: "......" Why didn't I find out before, Bai Qingyan is also a hidden guy?
The ministers who had been yelled at by me didn't dare to recommend themselves anymore, and I announced my retirement with a cold face.
After I went back, I told Yan Xiaoran about this morning, who knew that Yan Xiaoran not only did not sympathize with me, comforted me, but also fell on the bed and laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" I furrowed my brows and looked at the gloating Yan Xiaoran.
"I'm laughing, Shen Jinzhong really knows how to play, and he actually thought of this method to warn you." Yan Xiaoran saw that my face was not good, so she hurriedly sat down and said, "That day, he saw the kiss mark on your neck, and he thought that something happened between us, and he was adding a blockage to your heart." ”
I snorted and was about to speak, when the little eunuch said at the door: "Your Majesty, the ministers have sent their daughter's posts and portraits. ”
Me: "Huh...... It's really fast. ”
I looked at the pile of portraits and stickers piled up on my desk, and I looked helpless. Yan Xiaoran casually pulled out a portrait and opened it.
The facial features of the woman in the portrait are good, although it is not the best, but the softness between the eyebrows is clearly visible. The delicate nose is like a sculpture, concave and convex. This person is either really so good-looking, or the artist has painted people like this.
"Tsk, Your Majesty's Yanfu is not shallow, and this kind of beauty can be regarded as an upper-average beauty." Yan Xiaoran smiled and teased me.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt that something was wrong, from the moment I said that the minister asked me to take a concubine, Yan Xiaoran seemed to be happy, and now when I saw the portrait, I couldn't close my mouth.
I snatched the painting from his hand: "This is also called beautiful? has no temperament at all, like a village girl. ”
Yan Xiaoran pursed her lips and pulled out another portrait. The woman on this photo is a little delicate, but the point is that her breasts are large and spectacular enough.
I looked at the portrait and compared it with myself, and suddenly became angry again: "If I admit them into the palace, you will be very lucky." "To be honest, I'm a little sad.
My waist was buckled suddenly, and my whole person was taken into Yan Xiaoran's arms, and he kissed my lips: "No matter how beautiful they are, can they still be as beautiful as me?" Another day, you can draw me and show it to the ministers, and if you are confident that your daughter can be more beautiful than me, you will consider taking her into the palace. ”
His eyes were surprisingly calm, and in an instant my anger was calmed. I burst out laughing, "Shameless." ”
He looked at me with a smile: "It's just shameless for you." He gently took my lips in his mouth and murmured, "Shu'er, we don't seem to have experienced it yet, so we do it on the table." He kissed me and started taking off my pants.
Me: "......" in broad daylight, what is he trying to do?
Yan Xiaoran laughed evilly: "Do you want to try it, it is guaranteed to be a different experience." As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, all the portraits on the table were pushed to the ground, and then I was carried to the table.
I held his hand and gasped: "I...... I...... I don't want to. ”
"But I want to." He leaned over and pressed up, his hand already touching the forbidden place: "It's not honest at all, you obviously want to." ”
I secretly scolded myself for not being angry, and in the end I could only be at his mercy.
