Chapter Fifty-Eight: Resentment and Mischief
"Alas, you still don't understand me, and if you do, you won't be like that. However, then again, if you understand everything, what else will I do as the emperor? ”
Chongzhen thought smugly, and saw that the courtiers were all stunned on the spot, and said with a smile: "The cabinet members have been selected, you Aiqing have worked hard, and I am also tired, scatter the court." With that, he got up and went back to the inner palace.
When he returns to the inner palace, he must drink tea, and he doesn't drink tea like others, he always likes to drink it all. Queen Zhou had repeatedly told Wang Chengen how dare to be lazy, he had ordered someone to prepare it early, and when he came in, he immediately handed it over in person.
He didn't look at it, reached out to take it, drank it all, gave the cup to Wang Chengen again, and turned around and walked out of the palace.
He didn't know what to do, he was tired, but he didn't want to sit. It wasn't until he arrived at Chengqian Palace that he began to think: "Play two games of chess with Concubine Tian, and then listen to her play the piano for a while, and then smell the fragrance of flowers on her body." Alas, it's strange, how can she have a floral fragrance on her body? ”
Thinking about it, he suddenly realized that the sound of the piano in the Chengqian Palace stopped abruptly: "What's the matter?" Hmph, there's no other reason, it's either to practice calligraphy, or to see me coming, and I want to do some tricks. ”
In order to show that she was different, Concubine Tian often played some tricks, or turned off the lights, and when Chongzhen came in, she suddenly lit up again, flashing herself coldly in front of Chongzhen; or hide behind the door, hug him coldly from behind, and bluff him; Occasionally, he even became presumptuous, deliberately smearing Chongzhen's face with ink...... And so on.
Obviously, in addition to being nervous, Chongzhen not only did not dislike it, but liked her little tricks of renovation. This is naturally the reason why she dares to play these little tricks, and she is confident that she has understood Chongzhen.
In fact, Chongzhen has clearly begun to guess what tricks she will play. guessed, but pretended to be defenseless, and went straight to the room where she practiced calligraphy as usual.
She's really practicing calligraphy! didn't seem to realize Chongzhen's arrival. Chongzhen couldn't bear to disturb her, and tiptoed over to see, but when he saw that the words on the paper were completely different, he couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong, it's so sloppy, it's completely out of standard." ”
She didn't speak, but threw the pen on the table, and happened to spill the ink, so that the desk seemed to bloom.
"Oh, she's not going well." Chongzhen thought secretly, and shouted: "Where are all the palace maids and eunuchs in Chengqian Palace dead, the housewife is angry, and I don't know how to come over to comfort and comfort?" ”
These palace maids and eunuchs were deliberately let out by Concubine Tian, and when she heard him shouting, she mistakenly thought that he was angry, hesitated a little, but still came in in a hurry, knelt on the ground, and kept saying mercy.
Concubine Tian said: "What do you call them to do, you take a closer look at this Chengqian Palace, what is the use of asking them?" ”
Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, turned around to look, but saw that this Chengqian Palace was as simple as Kunning Palace, no, to be precise, it should be more simple than Kunning Palace, and couldn't help but think: "Oh, she originally wanted to show off to me, yes, she knows how to understand me." ”
Thinking about it, Chongzhen was in a better mood, and waved his hand at the palace maids and eunuchs who were still asking for mercy, signaling them to withdraw.
The palace maids and eunuchs thanked them eagerly and flew away. When they left, Chongzhen deliberately teased her: "It's not voluntary, it's definitely not, it must be the queen who made a decree." ”
She didn't know what he was thinking, and said resentfully: "People are in the middle palace, the head of the harem, do you still need to make any decrees?" Everyone has done this, who dares not to follow suit? ”
He laughed, "You mean you don't want to?" ”
She said: "I'm just a concubine, what qualifications do I have to say whether I am willing or not." However, you see, the whole harem has been made like this, where is there still a little bit of the palace? In my opinion, even the big families in the private sector are not as good. ”
He sighed and said: "Concubine Ai doesn't know anything, she thinks that there is nothing in the palace, in fact, sometimes the court is really not as good as the rich people. This is temporary, though. I have decided that I will be the master of Zhongxing, and when Zhongxing is done, it will be fine. ”
She finally understood his thoughts, and the resentment in her heart still made her turn her face away and turn her back to him.
His interest was lost, but he still stepped forward to turn her around, and said, "Don't worry, after this period, I will reward you, which can be regarded as compensation." ”
She thought that her little trick had won him again, and said, "Hmph, the reward is often available to everyone, what is so strange?" As he spoke, he went straight into his arms.
He was stunned, pushed her away, saw her disappointed, afraid of hurting her, and smiled: "Haha, interesting, it's nothing unusual, oh, I almost forgot, I still have important things to do." As he spoke, he turned and walked out.
She didn't know what he meant, and saw him go away in disappointment, so she went to practice calligraphy by herself.
But he didn't know that when he left the Chengqian Palace, he looked hateful and walked towards Concubine Yuan's residence. Before he got closer, he heard Concubine Yuan's palace shouting loudly. He knew that Concubine Yuan must be teaching those palace maids and eunuchs to practice martial arts again, so he quietly entered the palace and stood on the periphery to watch.
But seeing Concubine Yuan, she was dressed tightly, and was tightly surrounded by six eunuchs and four palace maids in the center. She watched them warily, and from time to time she threw punches at them, making them retreat again and again. Suddenly, she attacked them like a rabbit, and before she could see how she could make a move, the ten people had already fallen to the ground.
Chongzhen couldn't help but shout: "Okay-"
Those onlookers were stunned for a while, and the word "good" was about to be spoken, but he took the lead, and couldn't help but look back together, and when they saw that it was him, they hurriedly knelt on the ground, and their hearts were inevitably uneasy.
Concubine Yuan also blushed, but she still hurriedly saluted, and then rushed to the palace maids and eunuchs who were kneeling on the ground and said, "Guys who don't know the eyes, don't you see the emperor coming up, why don't you get out of here?" ”
She usually talks like this, these palace maids and eunuchs are used to it, and when they hear it, they actually stick out their tongues or make grimaces and scatter. When they left, she came over and had to carry Chongzhen on her shoulders again.
This Yuan Feiguo also has some means, carrying Chongzhen on her shoulders, Chongzhen tried her best to move a little, but she can walk like flying, carry him to the couch, usually throw it on it with a pop, and then it will be tender.
This made Chongzhen feel fresh, and he usually cursed her fiercely in his mouth, but his heart was beautiful. She can naturally feel it, which is why she is so unscrupulous.
At this time, Chongzhen had the heart to try her, so he hurriedly stopped her, looked back, and pretended to be dissatisfied: "What's wrong, why did you make the palace like this?" ”
She was stunned for a moment, and said with relief: "Learn from Zhonggong, what, do you think it's not good?" ”
He nodded pretending and said deliberately: "Isn't it a little too shabby and easy to lose face?" ”
She said solemnly: "No matter how big the face is, is it still bigger than the Ming Dynasty?" Alas, Zhonggong is right, a court and a family are the same, especially at this time, you still have to be careful with your calculations. ”
"She has such a realm!" He sighed to himself, feeling that she was extremely gorgeous, wishing that she would come over and carry him quickly, but it was difficult to say.
Maybe because she thought all this was too normal, she didn't need to think about it at all, and when she saw that he didn't speak, but there was affection in her eyes, she came over and carried him and threw him straight on the couch......
He stayed here for three days, and in addition to sleeping, he had to relax himself.
