Chapter 671: Policy Toward Xilu and Liyue (24)
Liu Yong hadn't seen his wives for a few days. And the wives haven't seen their husbands for a few days. In Chen Xiaochun's mouth, when he learned that His Majesty was invited, he was immediately overjoyed.
Speaking of which, Chen Xiaochun is tired enough, from the queen to the rearmost Maria's dormitory, they all get together, but the road is also quite long, almost half of the palace.
Lin Qingrou, Ouyang Lanlan, Su Erniang, Zhang Xixi, Ma Miaozhen, Yun'er, Maria, and Princess Zixia Pan'er gathered in Liu Yong's bedroom and began the reunion of husband and wife.
Eat, drink, and have fun, and talk about wine, so lively.
As the empress, she should have cared about the emperor's life, but Lin Qingrou knew that Liu Yong was very busy these days, and she didn't want to disturb him.
And according to the rules of the palace, the queen does not have to go to the emperor every day to report.
This reunion naturally ran away from the title of emperor and concubine, without the shackles of these statuses, the husband and wife got along more harmoniously.
Liu Yong asked them how they were doing these days, and Lin Qingrou said as a representative: "Your Majesty, there is no reason for life in the palace. ”
Liu Yong nodded, picked up a glass of wine, took a sip of himself, put it down and said, "Now I am the emperor, and you are all concubines." But I find that you are not as happy as before. ”
The reason why Liu Yong said this is because he can see it in the palace life in the past two years. It is said that the palace is as deep as the sea, and it is not false at all. Living in the palace feels like being isolated. The rule in the palace is that the people in the palace cannot leave the palace at will.
The requirements for the emperor's concubines are even stricter, that is, they must not leave the palace without the emperor's will, even if something major happens outside the palace. For example, if the concubine's parents died, if there was the emperor's will, they could not leave the palace.
These concubines are like little birds in captivity in this palace. There is no freedom to soar into the sky. In this way, over time, sulking and even resentment will breed.
Those concubines who are often favored by the emperor are fine, and many of the concubines who have fallen out of favor or have not been favored by the emperor at all are depressed.
It's like a wild bird that has been caught, and if it is put in a cage, the little bird will not eat or drink, and eventually die of anger.
Actually, this is a truth. Liu Yong naturally understands, he doesn't want to have too many resentful women in his palace, he is resentful, and the feng shui of the entire palace is not good.
Of course, Liu Yong's most important thing is people's health. Once a person enters a state of grief, she becomes unhappy. Liu Yong believes that no matter whether you are rich or poor, the most important thing in life is to be happy.
First, life is just a few decades, which can be described as a snap of a finger. Second, it is not easy for people to live in this world, and it is said that people are born to suffer, which is not false at all. Based on these two points, what reason is there not to be happy?
In Liu Yong's eyes, there is none. To live is to be happy. Only those who can live a happy life can be called a perfect life.
No matter how bitter it is, you must know how to make fun in it.
This is Liu Yong's philosophy of life. In later generations, he really has nothing to do with happiness. Pheasant graduated from college, couldn't find a good job, was ugly, didn't have a girlfriend, started his own business without funds, and couldn't get the support of his parents. He wasn't happy at all.
Now that I think about it, why didn't I know how to comfort myself at that time? Maybe you don't notice it. It is also the reason for being young. The so-called don't know the true face of Lushan, only because he is in this mountain.
The authorities are fascinated!
At this moment, since Liu Yong has pointed out this topic, as Lin Qingrou and others, there is nothing to hide. Because they and Liu Yong are both wives, not concubines who were selected later, they still dare to act what Liu Yong should say and admit.
Ouyang Lanlan said: "Yes, Your Majesty, it's really boring to live in this palace for a long time." If only I could go shopping every few days. ”
Mary also said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I think so too." She was the youngest and more lively, and she looked at Liu Yong and winked after speaking.
After listening to this, Liu Yong smiled, nodded again, drank a glass of wine, and then said, "Zhen'er, what do you think?" He asked Ma Miaozhen.
Ma Miaozhen wants to stand with her sisters, in fact, don't look at her age now, but his liveliness has not been eliminated much.
I only heard her say: "Your Majesty, the concubine also wants to go out for a walk?" ”
Liu Yong nodded and asked Zhang Xixi again: "Xixi, what do you say!" ”
Zhang Xixi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, forgive the concubine for being blunt, it is indeed boring to stay in this palace for a long time. ”
Liu Yong looked at Yun'er and said secretly: "Yun'er doesn't need to ask, she is everything based on me." Su Erniang, there is no need to ask, she can use martial arts practice to relieve boredom. And she is the oldest and the most stable. Boredom will also occur, but not too severely. ”
Liu Yong thought so, and said, "It seems that the rules in this palace are going to be changed." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the wives looked at each other, not knowing what Liu Yong's words meant.
As the queen, Lin Qingrou asked, "How does Your Majesty want to change it?" What to change? ”
Liu Yong said with a smile: "It seems that you can no longer be confined in the palace like this." ”
Lin Qingrou and the others seemed to understand the meaning of Liu Yong's so-called words that you can no longer be confined in the palace, and their faces showed surprise.
Lin Qingrou asked, "Does Your Majesty mean that you want us to leave the palace?" ”
Liu Yong said with a smile: "What the queen said is very true, and I mean exactly that. ”
Ouyang Lanlan immediately clapped her hands and shouted. Lin Qingrou and the others are also looking at me, I look at you, with a smile on their faces.
Lin Qingrou asked again: "But Your Majesty, the rules in this palace can't be easily changed, the concubine thinks, the Ministry of Rites alone can't get by!" ”
Liu Yong smiled faintly and said with a smile: "Qingrou, am I the emperor of this Huahan?" ”
Lin Qingrou smiled slightly and said, "Of course Your Majesty is." ”
Liu Yong asked again: "Then do you say that the emperor's power is greater or the power of the Ministry of Rites is greater?" ”
Ouyang Lanlan interjected and said: "Naturally, Your Majesty's power is great, isn't the Ministry of Rites also a department under Your Majesty!" Although they will use the gift of a saint to restrain His Majesty, if His Majesty does not comply, I am afraid that those pedantic old guys will only stare dryly. Ha ha. After saying that, she laughed herself.
In fact, Ouyang Lanlan has been learning etiquette since she was a child, and she originally knew the rules best, but because she was exposed to too much etiquette, she found that there were many unreasonable places in it, especially for women. As a result, she had a little rebellious heart.
