Chapter 837: Late Autumn in the Palace

The Maori resignation was not approved, and the Ministry of Rites officials persuaded them to stay and wait for the ceremony before returning home. Because the imperial book, seal, seal box and other things have not yet been completed, the ceremony of canonizing the Qiuyue clan as a concubine will have to wait for time.

After Zhu Gaoxu consulted with the ministers, he decided to make Qiuyue a concubine, mostly because of a comprehensive alliance.

The opinions of some officials can be crowned as imperial concubines. Although the Akizuki clan is not a Ashikaga clan, it is a noble family of the princess, and it is the first marriage with Japan since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. The Akizuki family has a reputation in the Kyushu Island region, and the Ouchi clan, which is involved in this matter, is a key force affecting the interests of the Ming Dynasty in Japan; At present, the imperial court has little interest in the eastern part of Japan, and only wants to win over the daimyo in the western region.

However, the Imperial Division of the Northern Bureau collected a lot of information, and believed that all parties in Japan were still hostile to the Ming State at this time; The Ming court attaches too much importance to the Qiuyue family, which may cause the Qiuyue family to fall into a situation of being excluded, and make the court lose a force that can form an alliance.

The Ministry of Works, who was more concerned about the affairs of the foreign domain, also supported the opinion of the Imperial Division. So Zhu Gaoxu adopted this idea.

The place where the Akizuki clan lives has been arranged in advance in the East Third Palace. It turned out that there were no concubines living there, and the Akizuki clan would actually be able to manage the affairs of the entire East Third Palace in the future.

In mid-September, everything was arranged, and the Akizuki clan was taken to the palace for the canonization ceremony. During the whole process, Zhu Gaoxu met her, that is, when she was conferred and sealed, and came to Fengtian Hall to thank her.

As soon as the Qiuyue clan entered the main hall, they seemed to recognize Zhu Gaoxu on the throne. When she came to thank her, she was a little out of order and looked up at Zhu Gaoxu twice. It was corrected after being reminded by the deacons next to me.

The canonization ceremony ended in less than half a day, and after that, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't see the Qiuyue clan; When we meet again, we will not wait until the evening when we call her to bed. During this time, she probably had to take a shower and change clothes, and she had been preparing carefully for a long time.

In the evening, Zhu Gaoxu returned to the Qianqing Palace to change his clothes. He wore a light yellow belt made by the Akizuki clan inside a half-arm shawl.

After a while, the Qiuyue clan entered the dormitory surrounded by palace maids. She found the belt on Zhu Gaoxu's body at a glance, so she lowered her head with a red face and stepped forward to salute. She neither wore a concubine dress nor a Japanese dress, but was dressed in a Hanfu skirt, only the style of her hair pulled up, which was different from the technique of the women of the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing her clothes, Zhu Gaoxu nodded slightly, recognizing her sincerity in actively accepting Han culture. Zhu Gaoxu helped her up and said to the palace maids, "You all go down." ”

The palace ladies curtsied and said, "Yes." ”

Qiu Yue's head was raised, and his gaze swept over Zhu Gaoxu's face and belt. She pursed her lips, seeming a little embarrassed. Her expression also changed subtly, and when she found that Zhu Gaoxu was looking at her, she smiled gently.

"The concubine thought that we were going back to China." Akizuki whispered. Her pronunciation is a little strange, and her speech speed is slow, but it is rare that her words are very clear, and the rhythm is also very smooth. The teenage woman's voice was clear and gentle, and she was very nice.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "'Wang Shan' is me, and I am 'Wang Shan', we already know each other." ”

Qiu Yue seemed to secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and only when he raised his head could he see Zhu Gaoxu's face; Her body is petite, and her height can barely reach Zhu Gaoxu's shoulders. Zhu Gaoxu also showed a very relaxed smile.

Zhu Gaoxu doesn't want to worry too much, he usually takes the initiative to maintain a good relationship with the people around him.

Besides, the palace is a big prison.

Zhu Gaoxu reached out to hold her little hand, walked hand in hand to his wide dragon bed, and sat down on the edge of the bed, so that the conversation was much closer. Qiuyue said: "The saint said that he was a civil official, and the concubine still believed it." In addition to being big, the Holy One is very gentle with others. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile: "We still have military generals in the Ming Dynasty and self-proclaimed Confucian generals, who said that martial artists look fierce?" ”

Qiuyue said: "I didn't expect the saint to be such a person. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Shouldn't it be a beard, fierce and vicious, and scary to look at?" ”

The Akizuki clan covered her mouth and laughed. Perhaps because of Zhu Gaoxu's gentle attitude, she was not so nervous, so she rubbed her fingers on Zhu Gaoxu's palm and observed curiously. As the emperor, Zhu Gaoxu's palms are indeed a little rough, and there are calluses on his palms.

Zhu Gaoxu also reached out to caress her neck and cheeks, only to feel very soft and delicate. The skin of a young beauty is very radiant. The two were very close, and Zhu Gaoxu smelled a fragrance mixed with flowers on her body. His fingers twitched her sideburns, too, and when he looked at it in the light, her hair was jet black and shiny. As soon as his fingers moved to her ear, she turned her head sideways and smiled impatiently, "Ahh ”

Qiuyue's facial features give people a special feeling; She stood in front of Zhu Gaoxu, and when Zhu Gaoxu admired her beauty, she was also close to look at his face. Zhu Gaoxu reached out and gently hugged her waist, and the slender and soft touch suddenly hit the palm of his hand.

She was very obedient and did not resist at all, but put her little hand on Zhu Gaoxu's chest and stroked it carefully. She should also be interested in Zhu Gaoxu.

Some strange two people, since the name is right, everything is logical.

…… Zhu Gaoxu was still in good spirits the next day, and he performed his duties step by step early in the morning. He didn't have a good time last night, so naturally he didn't feel tired. However, he knew that Xiaoniang was like this for the first time, so he didn't care.

Lunch was eaten in the Rouyi Palace, and after walking around for a while, he went to a corridor at the back of the main hall, where he was ready to take a nap and continue his work in the afternoon.

At this moment, a woman walked in, silently curtsied to Zhu Gaoxu, and then walked to a cabinet to find something inside.

When Zhu Gaoxu saw her, he quickly remembered, isn't it that Lian family? After the last time he met Lian, although he had some good feelings, he didn't meet again after that, and it was inevitable that he would soon forget about it. Seeing her again at this time, Zhu Gaoxu easily remembered it.

Lian's is still like that, uninhibited and decent, which makes people feel that she can be serious at any time.

"What are you doing?" Zhu Gaoxu wondered.

Lian Shi hurriedly said: "The weather is cold, and the slave family will change a thicker quilt for the saint." ”

She moves quickly and skillfully, and is very serious about her work there. Zhu Gaoxu looked at her, under the simple and neat dress, the lines of the body contour were graceful, and the skin on her face and neck was very white, which was a restrained beauty. He felt the smell of a clean quilt at a distance.

This woman has lived in the palace for so long?

Zhu Gaoxu stood next to him for a while, seeing that she didn't squint, he couldn't wipe his face and say anything excessive, not to mention that he was not familiar with Lian's family.

When the new futon was spread out on the bed, Zhu Gaoxu took off his robe, took off his black gauze hat and put it on the desk, kicked off his boots and lay down. Just took a nap, couldn't sleep for a while, Zhu Gaoxu pulled the futon and put it on his body at will.

Lian seemed to be a careful woman, who stepped forward to pull the bedding up and cover Zhu Gaoxu, but it was a little grinding.

"I'll build it myself." Zhu Gaoxu pulled her hand, but unexpectedly shook her hand. Lian Shi was startled, reacted greatly, and subconsciously dodged.

She glanced at Zhu Gaoxu and didn't say anything. Lian is a woman who has experienced human affairs, but she has lived alone for a long time, and the reaction should indeed be great, and it is understandable that she was suddenly touched and so panicked.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at her appearance with great interest and said, "If you want to take care of me, it is inevitable that there will be some skin kisses." ”

His words seemed a little inaccurate, and Lian listened silently, looking even more nervous. Zhu Gaoxu said again: "Those palace maids who serve me close to me are like this. ”

Lian Shi glanced at him and asked as if he was very serious: "In that case, wouldn't the Holy Lord have any ideas?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu laughed, but Lian didn't laugh. He also felt bored laughing alone, so he stopped it and said, "There are so many women around me every day, how can they be so sensitive? And most of the palace maids have no personnel, so they don't know much about it. If you have experienced it, but you haven't experienced the joy of fish and water for a long time, it is estimated that the feeling will be different. ”

At this time, Lian's ears were also red.

"The saint and the saint are the sons of heaven, but they make fun of the slave family, don't you think the slave family is a broken flower and a willow?" Lian whispered.

Zhu Gaoxu said in his heart: You are not my wife, why should I care about that? Besides, am I molesting you?

Of course, those words would not be spoken, and he never wanted to embarrass others.

He said what he wanted to say to the Qiuyue clan last night to the Lian clan, he shook his head to show that he didn't dislike it, and said, "However, this is a cage for women. Got it? ”

Lian asked rhetorically, "Where is not the cage?" ”

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu beckoned his hand, and Lian approached cautiously. He said, "Why do you always look unhappy?" He asked kindly, and naturally gently took her hand.

Lian was prepared, and he no longer panicked. She said, "What is there about my life? ”

Zhu Gaoxu sighed slightly: "What do you remember about him?" ”

Lian Shi thought for a while and said, "His right index finger can't be bent, and once he injured his tendons, and he didn't get it right. Every time the slave family and his parents saw his fingers, they felt a little uncomfortable, afraid that it would affect his writing. Later, when he was lying in the coffin, I saw the finger again, and suddenly I felt that the finger was disabled and finally unimportant. ”

Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his hand and rubbed it on his forehead a few times, and said, "Cover the door, if I sleep too soundly, wake me up in half an hour." If you take a long nap at noon, you will not feel comfortable. ”

Lian glanced at him and curtsied, "Yes." ”
