Two hundred and seventy-nine, harem
The two palace maids saw Xinqiao leading Liu He over, Liu He's outfit The palace people knew at a glance that it was the emperor who arrived, so they hurriedly lowered their heads and knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.
When the two concubines saw that it was Liu He coming over, they looked a little panicked, and hurriedly knelt down, and said tremblingly: "Slave and maid see Your Majesty!" ”
After a few days of adaptation, Liu He has become accustomed to being me, so he also said: "Flatten, raise your head and let me see." ”
Isn't it, as soon as you open your mouth, you will ask the concubines of the former emperor to raise their heads and let you see, what do you mean?
Seeing that the two concubines hesitated a little, Xin Qiao hurriedly repeated loudly: "Your Majesty asked you to look up, you can lift it, what are you hesitating about." ”
The two concubines had no choice but to raise their heads, but they didn't dare to look at Liu He. And Liu Heyi saw the two concubines, but he felt frowning and listless, but his appearance was very delicate, and he looked very touching, so he couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart.
Liu He stepped forward, sat on the railing, and said with a smile: "What are the names of the two of you, and how long have you been in the palace?" ”
The one on the left looked a little older, about twenty, and I saw her say: "Your Majesty, the slave's surname is Zheng and her name is Chunhua, and she has been in the palace for six years. ”
The woman on the right also said: "Your Majesty, my name is Hong Qiuye, I am eighteen years old this year, and I have been in the palace for four years. ”
Liu He looked left and right, and when he saw their sad looks, he asked, "Why are you sad?" Are you still in the sadness of the death of the emperor? ”
The two concubines nodded, but they stopped talking. The more Liu He looked at them, the more he felt pity for them, and asked, "Then you have been in the palace for so long, why don't you leave a man and a woman?" ”
The two concubines didn't dare to say anything, so they just lowered their heads deeply. Seeing that they didn't dare to say anything, Xinqiao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty asks you, don't be afraid, now Your Majesty is in charge, you say it, Your Majesty can help you make the decision." ”
At this time, a palace maid who had been kneeling on the ground was about thirty years old, probably bolder, and saw her say: "Your Majesty, since Zheng Niangniang and Hong Niangniang entered the palace, the emperor rarely came to pamper them. ”
"Ah, such a thing?"
Liu He felt incredible, so he asked loudly. Another palace maid next to her, who was younger but also in her twenties, hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, the first emperor generally favors Empress Shangguan, oh, now it is the Empress Dowager Shangguan, and sometimes she will spoil Zhou Jieyu." ”
The elderly palace maid also said: "Your Majesty, the palace usually orders us to wear a poor cloth, and Zheng Niangniang and Hong Niangniang are no exception." ”
"Poor? What is it? ”
For Liu He, who likes to have fun, he was curious when he heard this name, and the older palace maid said with a red face: "Your Majesty, the poor lady is worn in the pants, and it is tied with many straps, which is very inconvenient to untie. ”
"Oh, understood," Liu He nodded and smiled: "It seems that there are still a lot of novelties in the palace, originally I thought that our crown was trendy enough, but it turns out that there are such things as poor people in the palace, haha." ”
Liu He's mouth was open, and the four women all blushed with shame, lowered their heads, and didn't dare to look at Liu He and Xinqiao. Seeing this, Xinqiao also hurriedly said: "Two mothers, are you going to Pingling to guard the mausoleum?" ”
Hearing Xinqiao's question, the two concubines suddenly burst into tears, and the crying provoked the guards next to them to rush over to take a closer look. Those guards saw that Liu He was present, and hurriedly knelt down to ask Liu He for forgiveness, and Liu He also sent them away, but he was a little unhappy in his heart, because these guards were not brought by him from Changyi State, but the guards who stayed in the palace before.
Liu He saw that the cries of the two concubines gradually subsided, and asked softly, "Do you not want to go to Pingling to guard the tomb?" ”
At this time, Zheng Chunhua hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you want to be the master of the slave maid, our sister's life is really hard, we haven't seen the emperor for a few years after entering the palace, but now you still want us to go to the mausoleum, isn't it a hard life." ”
Hong Qiuye also cried: "Your Majesty, please be the master for us." We don't want to go to the mausoleum, even in the courtyard. ”
Looking at the two poor women, Liu He felt a sense of pity in his heart, and thought, it's a pity that it is the concubine of the former emperor, otherwise I can take it all, and now I am going to guard the tomb at a young age, isn't it a tyrannical thing, hey, no way, the rules are like this!
In fact, Liu He's heart is still very kind, and he will be soft-hearted, looking at the two stunners who are Chu Chu and begging him again, his heart is indeed soft, and he said: "You are also very lonely in the court, and you will die alone." ”
"Your Majesty, we are not afraid, at least someone will accompany us in the court, lively, Pingling is now a wilderness, we are very afraid, I heard that there are often wild beasts there, we are afraid of being eaten by wild beasts."
Looking at the two former concubines who were crying, Liu He had no choice but to say: "That's good, that's good, I will allow you to live in the court without going to the tomb." ”
When the two former concubines heard Liu He say this, they finally burst into tears and laughed, knelt down in unison, and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" ”
"Get up, get up, go back to rest, go back!"
Looking at the prey that reached his mouth but didn't dare to start, Liu He had no choice, and he had no choice but to accept their request and order them to go back to rest, it seems that Liu He is still very warm-hearted.
Zheng Chunhua and Hong Qiuye went back to the court with their maids happily, looking at the beauty who slowly disappeared into the night, Xinqiao asked, "Your Majesty, why didn't you want these two to enter the palace to serve you just now?" ”
Liu He shook his head and said, "They are the concubines of the former emperor, and now it is a period of mourning, so they can't mess around." ”
Xin Qiao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, just get them back secretly, then someone will know." ”
Liu He pointed to Xinqiao's head and said, "You, do you want to think about it, didn't there be guards coming over just now, now there are ears and eyes everywhere in the harem, and our every move is being monitored." ”
Xin Qiao hurriedly gave a thumbs up and smiled: "Your Majesty is still powerful, you can see it at a glance, Your Majesty, now that we are not well monitored by others, we have to think of a way." ”
Liu He also nodded and said, "Yes, if you want to think of a way, you go and call An Le and Shi Wei to come over, and we will discuss it." ”
Xinqiao pointed to the pavilion and said, "Your Majesty, is this it?" ”
Liu He hurriedly said: "Go back to the dormitory, there are people watching here, you hurry up and call them, I'll wait in the dormitory." ”
"Yes..."
After Xinqiao finished speaking, he turned around and hurriedly summoned everyone.
This night, I have to pass them into the palace, it seems that this Liu He is very good at tossing, anyway, he wants to do whatever he wants, and he doesn't care about any rules.
