Chapter 21: The Scholar's Anger (1)

In Yaohua Palace, as soon as the sky was brightened, Wanrong had already woken up.

She turned her head, looked at the emperor who was still sleeping beside her, raised one arm and pillowed it behind her head, and looked forward to two hours later, she and Jing Xuan would sit side by side in the spacious Lin De Hall, accepting the scene of hundreds of newly elected palace people worshipping.

This will be her first official appearance after being named a concubine. As a woman, she felt more satisfaction and excitement than she had ever felt before, and compared with the infinite glory of today, the days of being a widow in the East Palace for more than two years, swallowing her anger, and even being terrified all the time were like a nightmare that had gradually faded away in her mind. Although Jing Xuan's title is above herself, which makes Wanrong somewhat unhappy, the emperor's favor for herself is far better than Jing Xuan, which is also an almost obvious fact, as long as the emperor can be by her side night and night, why should she make trouble with Jing Xuan for a false name?

Wanrong stretched out a hand and gently stroked the emperor's face, and an inexplicable melancholy quietly hit her heart at the same time: After today, I am afraid that the situation of her own pepper room will be broken.

These days, although she is very busy in order to preside over the screening and repatriation of the old palace people, she still hasn't forgotten to send Ying'er to inquire about the news of the newly selected palace people. According to Ying'er's report, there are really a few women with outstanding appearance and good talent among the newly selected palace people, Li Jinzhong ordered them to paint portraits one by one, and presented them to the imperial review, and the emperor was amazed after viewing, and specially took care of Jing Xuan, and raised the rank of these people when discussing the rank of everyone, so as to facilitate the future accompaniment.

As soon as Wanrong thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a wave of jealousy in her heart, even if she knew in her heart that once the prince became the emperor, it was something that no one could stop from having many concubines in the three palaces and six courts, but when it came to the end, she still didn't dare to imagine what it was like for her husband who slept with her every night to be snatched away by other women.

"Aifei, why did you wake up so early?" The emperor opened his eyes and asked.

Wanrong felt that her hand had been repeatedly touched by the emperor in the warm palm of her hand at some point, and she withdrew her hand shyly, and said with concern: "It's the concubine who disturbed Your Majesty, right?" The hour is still early, Your Majesty will sleep a little longer. ”

After the emperor fell asleep, it was the time when he was full of energy, and when he saw the beauty in front of him was shy and lovely, he couldn't help but get up, jumped up, and pressed Wanrong under him...... After a fierce battle, both of them were already sweating profusely, and they gracefully pulled Luo Pa at the head of the bed, wiping his body for the emperor, and said angrily: "After all, the emperor is in his forties, and this kind of thing needs to be more careful, don't hurt the Holy Body." ”

The emperor took Wanrong in his arms and said with a smile: "Tell me, is my silver spear rusty?" Do you want to fight a few more rounds? ”

Wanrong was so ashamed that she buried her head in the emperor's chest, and she didn't dare to speak out again.

"I understand your thoughts, I'm afraid that once I have a new person, I will forget the old one, right?" Hearing the emperor suddenly say this, Wanrong could no longer hide the troubles and grievances in her heart, and couldn't help but sobbed softly.

"Although I and Qing are not married to each other, but the couple have a deep affection, which is not comparable to others, can't Qing believe my affection for Qing?" The emperor held up his graceful face and said affectionately.

"The concubine didn't have any other thoughts, but when she thought that she would not be able to accompany the emperor all the time like before, she felt unspeakably uncomfortable." Wanrong tried her best to stop her tears, but as soon as her heart opened, it was difficult to close, and the tears rolled down.

"Okay, I'll have to accept everyone's worship after a while, how can I cry like this?" The emperor smiled and comforted her, "If you see their mother like this, you may not be able to make fun of you." ”

Wanrong snorted, pointed at the emperor and blamed: "There is no emperor like this." Lift the child naked. The concubine only hoped that the emperor would be satisfied if he could leave a place for these two children in his heart in the future. ”

"You, it's just not as wide as Xuan'er," the emperor scratched the tip of Wanrong's nose, pulled a robe and draped it over his body, and said, "Jixiang, Ruyi, and Xueqing are all my blood and bones, and my heart not only contains them, but also their mother." As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked Wanrong: "I don't know how to do the matter of receiving Bin'er into the palace that I mentioned to you last time?" ”

Bin'er is the son of Wang Cairen, who is five years old. The emperor asked him when he got up early in the morning, and Wanrong hurriedly replied: "I have discussed with Sister Xuan'er a few days ago, Xueqing is lacking a playmate, Bin'er moved from the Sixteenth Mansion and lived in Yuxiu Palace first. Wang Cairen is a hard-working person, and the concubines will never let her son be wronged. ”

In this way, the two couldn't help but switch from boudoir frolicking to the pattern of court coping.

"That's good," the emperor got out of bed, but he was not in a hurry to call the eunuchs and palace maids outside the palace to come in and wait, but then said to Wanrong, "Wang was assassinated at the beginning, and only then did he commit the crime of rebellion, although it is not appropriate to show this matter and correct her name, but Bin'er must not be burdened by his mother and unable to raise his head in front of everyone." I have already thought about it, when he is older, I will find a place in Guannai Road as his food town, and send him to be raised by the prince and knighted. ”

"Your Majesty is compassionate, and Sister Wang will be grateful under Jiuquan." Wanrong walked up to the emperor's side, and complimented him as she changed his clothes.

"Now that the new person has entered the palace, how is the old person being repatriated?" The Emperor asked casually.

Wanrong heard that the emperor was inquiring about the envoy, so she turned around and walked in front of him, gave a salute, and replied: "Back to the emperor, as soon as the period of the first emperor's great funeral has passed, the thirty-eight concubines left by the first emperor have all been moved into the south to be settled, in addition to the palace people and eunuchs who were originally serving in front of them, the concubines also deliberately sent four palace maids for each of them, and two eunuchs waited, this batch sent out a total of 256 palace maids and 183 eunuchs; After His Majesty ascended the throne, he was awarded 20 palace maids and 10 eunuchs, and the dukes and princesses, 10 palace maids and 4 eunuchs were rewarded in each palace, and a total of 324 palace maids and 142 eunuchs were sent out in this batch; The concubines will discuss with Xie Liangchen and calculate, Daming Palace needs to stay in the palace 400 people, 200 eunuchs to maintain normal operation, remove this number, now there are more than 600 palace people to be released, there are more than 200 eunuchs, the concubines and others want to ask the emperor to give a special decree, the eunuchs who are released will be given money to return to their hometowns to live, and the palace maids who are allowed to choose their own sons-in-law to start a family, I don't know what the holy will thinks? ”
