Chapter 156: The Battle of the Capital (12)
The mist was shrouded and the air was filled with a faint scent of milk and rose petals. Xu Jun carried a bucket of hot water, held a wooden tray in his hand, and slowly walked into the place where Concubine Li took a bath.
In the tray was a long white towel and a brush of fine salt, as well as pig lings and pancreas, the ancients were far more clean than they thought, and they also had their own toiletries. The place where the Qin people bathed was called Tang Mu Pavilion. The concubines in the imperial palace, almost everyone's dormitory has a place to bathe, just the favored concubine bath. The larger pools and the unfavored concubines may not even have a bath, but only two huge wooden barrels in the bathing area.
If the concubines are not favored by the emperor, they usually wash their hair once every three days and take a bath once every five days. If the emperor is ready to pamper, the concubines will wash the white and clean in advance and wait for the emperor to come. As for the palace maids, they would regularly go to the public Tangmu Pavilion to bathe, and the eunuchs would have to scrub with a bucket of hot water every day, or simply soak in a wooden barrel to bathe. Because the place of the eunuch is gone, there is always a dripping and smelling smell, and it smells bad if you don't wash it for a day.
Xu Jun walked towards the bath with a big grin, and the two palace maids stopped him and said, "Where did you come from, the little eunuch, why don't you understand the rules at all?" ”
"Rules? What are the rules? Xu Jun was confused, he hadn't learned court etiquette, where did he know so many rules.
The palace maid said angrily: "It's too unusual, who brought you into the palace?" ”
Xu Jun has always had a bad temper, and he said angrily: "Father-in-law Zhao brought me in, what's wrong." ”
The palace maid's face turned pale in an instant, and then her face was full of smiles and said: "Oh, it turned out that Gonggong Zhao led it into the palace, I was offended just now, don't be angry, little brother." ”
The palace maid stretched out her hand and pinched Xu Jun's cheek, Xu Jun almost fainted, Ni Mei's, treat him as a child. But this Zhao Gonggong is really powerful, just a broken eunuch, from the prince and the minister to the harem concubine, he has to give him three points of face, and when the eunuch is on this, it can be regarded as not cutting that knife in vain. Of course, even if the emperor Laozi wants to exchange that firewood for it, it is estimated that few men will do it.
"Father-in-law Zhao is a big celebrity in the palace, and the little brother has to say a few good words for his sister, don't sue my sister. Little brother, what's your name? Is it quite handsome, if the little brother is in need, people can consider eating it. ”
The palace maid stared at Xu Jun and smiled, her eyes were extremely wrong, Xu Jun was cold, and thought to herself, you old fat ga, are you willing Lao Tzu or not. However, the palace maid laughed so slutfully, Bacheng thought that he and Zhao Gonggong had a leg, and he said with black lines on his head: "Sister, I'm still young, I don't know what it means to eat." My name is Xu Fu, just call me Little Xuzi. What do you mean by rules? ”
The palace maid's eyes glowed green, what a pure little eunuch, she smiled and said: "Waiting for the mother to take a bath, the eunuch should put the hot water bucket at his feet, hold the wooden plate in both hands, and respectfully bow his head to the side, and he is not allowed to look around." If you need it, I will call your name, and then you will walk forward with a wooden plate, but do not look up, let alone look at Niangniang. Otherwise, they will have their eyes gouged out and be punished with death."
Xu Jun opened his mouth wide, dumbfounded, and thought in his heart: "It's really a lot of, why don't you let me walk blindfolded, what if I don't want to see anything, what if I fall?" It's so troublesome to take a shower, Lao Tzu is not a man anymore, can you lose a piece of meat when you look at it? ”
Seeing Xu Jun's black face, the palace maid comforted Xu Jun and said: "There are a lot of rules in the palace, and if you are not careful, you will be killed with a cane, can it be said that no one has told you the rules of the palace before?" But you don't have to worry too much, the little eunuchs who generally serve the mothers to take a bath, as long as they don't look annoying, the girls won't punish them. If you're lucky, maybe your mother will hurt you very much. ”
Xu Jun blinked in surprise, I don't know what it means to hurt you so much. The surface of the harem is flashy and magnificent, but behind the glamorous surface, it is extremely dirty, and I secretly don't know how many unsightly deeds there are. Eryu and I are just the tip of the iceberg, there are three thousand beauties in the harem, there are only a few concubines who can intrigue on the stage, and the rest of the ladies have nothing to do all day long, and all they think about is to be comfortable, where are they qualified to participate in the struggle for power.
Everyone has seven emotions and six desires, as long as they are human, they have needs, and when they enter the harem, they become palace scheming, and they don't have normal needs, they are not normal people, only in TV dramas can there be such a stupid plot.
The concubines in the palace, the worst thing is not those who have not been favored by the emperor in their lives, but those who are lucky enough to be pampered once or twice, but never see the emperor's shadow again. It's like a poor person who has never eaten meat in his life, and can only imagine the taste of meat, which is extremely uncomfortable. But once you eat it once, you will never have a chance to eat it again, and it will be even more painful.
Many mothers who know how to have sex have no choice but to hit the eunuch with their ideas. The eunuch is a man anyway, although he is missing something, but he is better than the palace maid. However, yin chaos harem is a big crime, and it is absolutely impossible to come clearly. Generally, if the ladies are optimistic about which little eunuch, they will summon the eunuch in the middle of the night as a palace maid. Blowing out the candles, closing the windows, stripping naked in the dark, lying in the bed and waiting for the little eunuch to go to bed. Some of the open-minded mothers will also play three-person games together, which adds to the fun, and bananas and cucumbers are the most popular fruits and vegetables in the harem.
Xu Jun was holding the wooden plate in silence, his arms were sore, and he was quite bored. He really wanted to throw the wooden plate to the ground, and yelled: "Have you washed it, and it fell into the pool, Lao Tzu is gone, what is your love." ”
"Little Xuzi..." Xu Jun was drowsy and cranky, when he suddenly heard someone shouting his name, and hurriedly stepped forward with a wooden plate.
The water splashes, the water hibiscus, and the white stripes are particularly attractive, but unfortunately Xu Jun lowered his head and could only rely on fantasy. However, fantasy is far more beautiful than reality, and it is the most beautiful to hold the pipa and half-cover your face.
"You little eunuch is so handsome, raise your head and let this palace take a good look, this palace will give you innocence."
Xu Jun was dumbfounded, true or false, handsome and this preferential treatment, he was innocent and treated him well. He slowly raised his head, and was stunned for a moment, almost falling headlong into the pool. What a big behemoth, this emperor is too heavy-mouthed. He knew that Chen Youliang liked fat girls the most in history, married a bunch of fat girls, and ordered them to lie side by side on the big bed on the boat, while he lay on these fat girls, in the beautiful name, sleeping on the meat bed, this Qin Batian would not have this love.
Concubine Li shook her fat all over her body, and said with a smile: "The little eunuch looks quite white, and the palace even likes it." Rub the back of the concubine first, as long as you serve the palace well, you will have your own benefits. The palace maids in the palace have too little strength, and the concubine who rubs it is uncomfortable, so if you use a little force, the palace can bear it. Back then, the palace was a famous beauty in the palace and was deeply favored by the emperor. It's a pity that later the palace became more and more burly, and the emperor didn't go to the dormitory of the palace. ”
As soon as a person is blessed, his appearance will change greatly, real beauties will become dinosaurs, and handsome guys will become pig brothers. Even acquaintances are extremely difficult to recognize. When Concubine Li first entered the palace, she was beautiful, but she belonged to a big skeleton, with a big face and a tall figure.
Xu Jun gritted his teeth, rubbed Concubine Li's back with a sad face, and finally waited for Concubine Li's mother to take a bath, and walked out of Tang Mu Pavilion dejectedly. By this time night had fallen, and a lantern was lit in the palace. Xu Jun asked the palace maids how to get to the place where the eunuch lived, and hurriedly said goodbye to Concubine Li.
Concubine Li said reluctantly: "Xiao Xuzi, your hand strength is good, it's better to sleep in the palace tonight." Early tomorrow morning, Bengong and Zhao Gonggong will say goodbye, you will serve Bengong here in the future, and Bengong will not treat you badly. ”
Xu Jun trembled, almost collapsed to the ground in fright, he didn't come to the palace to serve the master to take a bath, he hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you Concubine Liniang for your kindness, it's just that the slave has become the personal eunuch of Princess Mingzhu, and one slave can't serve the second master." ”
"Oh, I see, then you can get a lantern and go back to rest early."
"Concubine Xie Li, the slave has gone"
Xu Jun carried the lantern and hurriedly left the place where Concubine Li lived. Thinking in my heart, the night is long and there are many dreams, and if you stay in the palace for a long time, it is inevitable that you will show your feet, so it is better to find Xiao Yu'er earlier and leave this place very early.
He blew out the lantern, took off the eunuch's coat, hid his clothes and lantern in a patch of grass, and took advantage of the moonlight to cast a thousand magic shadows and fly into the air. He was wearing a black tights, and when he took off the eunuch's clothes, he became a man in black, and when he put on the eunuch's clothes, he turned back into a little eunuch, which was very convenient.
The night was dark and the wind was high, and the surroundings were quiet, only the sound of the cold wind howling. The location where Xu Jun is located is where the harem concubines live. If you explore these dormitories one by one, unless you are lucky, you may not be able to find Xiao Yu'er next month.
However, Xu Jun clearly remembered that Xiao Yu'er came to Daqin to marry the crown prince Qin Wenwang. Although it is said that Xiao Yu'er has lost power and cannot become the queen of Great Qin, with Xiao Yu'er's appearance, it is more than enough to be a concubine. Xu Jun believes that as long as the prince is not blind, he will not let Xiao Yu'er go.
Xu Jun quickly approached the prince's harem, flying in the sky from time to time to observe the terrain. The number of concubines of the crown prince is not very large, far less exaggerated than the emperor, he only needs to explore the prince's harem, if there is no accident, he will naturally be able to find Xiao Yu'er.
Of course, he had to be careful not to be discovered. There are so many masters in the palace that if he wants to explore the Jinluan Palace or the place where the emperor lives at night, it is estimated that he will have to be beaten into meat sauce. However, the guards of the harem are not so strict. Although the harem has three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, most of them are guards, and their martial arts are limited. Xu Jun's spiritual power has now improved greatly, and he has practiced the first light skill of the Demon Gate, the Thousand Illusion Demon Shadow, and he is still rich in hiding from some guards.
The strong wind blew, and the torches in the hands of a group of guards trembled. One of the thin guards in the lead asked vigilantly, "What person? ”
The guards hurriedly held torches in one hand and put the other on the handle of knives, looking around vigilantly, but there was silence all around, and no one answered his words. A guard with braided hair said, "Head, where there are people, it's just a gust of wind blowing." The palace is heavily guarded, and even a fly can't fly in, you have too much heart. ”
The thin guard said with a gloomy face: "Last time, the chief of the horse guard had an affair with Concubine Yan, and as a result, all the guards who patrolled that night were miserable, and the chief of the horse guard was even punished by the nine clans, so it is better to be careful." This is a forbidden place in the harem, and it is of course difficult for people from outside to break in, but I am afraid that some people will be guarding and stealing, and we will be implicated, so we will check this neighborhood and tell all the brothers on patrol to be vigilant. ”
"Chirp"
The guards left, Xu Jun's shadow slowly emerged from a bush, he looked at the backs of the guards, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was dangerous, he didn't expect that there would be such a master among the guards, and he almost showed his stuff. However, he had to send the arrow on the string, and he did not have the habit of giving up halfway. He is not arrogant, but he is naturally arrogant and has an extremely stubborn temper. He bent his waist and quietly approached a dormitory.
Most of the palace maids and eunuchs in the dormitory slept, leaving only two palace maids who kept vigil and one little eunuch who kept vigil. Xu Jun and the gecko seemed to lie on the top wall, slipped into the inner room, and saw a good-looking concubine lying on the bed with her hair scattered. On the concubine's lap lay a little eunuch with a cucumber in his hand, dancing his tongue vigorously. Xu Jun had a chill and hurriedly left the palace.
The concubines' dormitories were divided into pieces, with the emperor's harem and the prince's harem both in different areas. However, most of the dormitories in the same area are not far apart, and only a few extremely favored concubines will occupy a larger dormitory by themselves, or even build a separate dormitory, and most beauties do not have that treatment. If not, there are 3,000 beauties in the palace, and everyone lives in such an exaggerated and luxurious place, and it doesn't occupy half of the city.
Xu Jun came to another dormitory, and suddenly heard a terrible scream and a faint cry, he slipped into the inner room curiously, and saw the crown prince Qin Wenwang, who was bare and bare his body, dancing a leather whip with teeth and claws, and whipped a girl who was only sixteen or seventeen years old viciously, Xu Jun completely collapsed. This picture is so beautiful that he is a little afraid to look at it.
According to folk legend, the crown prince Qin Wen Wang was polite and had a gentle temperament. And King Wu of Qin was brutal and bloodthirsty, and ruthless. If King Wu of Qin is allowed to take the throne, the people will suffer. It can be known that people know their faces but don't know their hearts, this King Qin Wen is sven on the surface, but he didn't expect that he was also a beast behind his back. However, it is much better to govern the country than a hypocrite than a real villain. A true gentleman will never be able to sit on that throne at all, and even if he does, it can only be a tragedy.
Xu Jun pursed his lips speechlessly, and quickly slipped out, he is not a peeping maniac, let King Qin Wen play slowly. Anyway, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, domestic violence has never been a serious crime in Huaxia, and he can't control it.
Xu Jun entered three more bedrooms one after another, but he didn't see Xiao Yu'er's shadow, so he couldn't help but be a little discouraged. He couldn't help but complain: "Niang Xipi, Lao Tzu has lost a lot, and his eyes are stained, but the person has not been found, and Lao Tzu is trapped to death." ”
Xu Jun sighed and decided to investigate the last dormitory, if there was still no one, then he could only go back to sleep first and continue to investigate tomorrow night. He slipped into the inner room with ease, and quietly approached the bed in the dark, and was just about to investigate, when a long sword suddenly tore through the air and attacked him fiercely, and he was immediately shocked.
If people do one thing repeatedly for a long time, it is very easy to make small mistakes. Because people can't always be in a state of high tension, or if you drown, you can water. Xu Jun entered five bedrooms one after another, but nothing happened, so it was inevitable that he would be a little careless. He never thought that among the prince's concubines, there were still masters. If he had known this, he would have used the Turtle Breath Gong to shield his breath from being detected by the other party.
But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to think about it. It's just a concubine, Yuyangzi is not his opponent, what is a mere concubine. His lower coil was as steady as Mount Tai, his upper body swayed with the wind, and his waist moved strangely to the side, dodging the other party's fatal blow at an angle that a normal person could not imagine at all.
A cruel smile hung on Xu Jun's face, it was not too late to make amends, it was not that he was ruthless, it was to blame this concubine for having too many things. He stretched out his right hand, grabbed the opponent's neck viciously, and lifted the opponent up. The best way to quickly subdue a person and prevent them from screaming is to put a frontal grip on the person's neck and squeeze their breathing so that they can't scream.
Xu Jun doesn't like to kill innocents indiscriminately, but Hu Meier said that compared with other people's lives, his own life is the most important. Although Xu Jun disagreed with this sentence, he couldn't deny it. Until the last moment of life and death, you will never know what kind of person you are, and not everyone can be a martyr.
A painful choking sound came from the other party's throat, and the other party struggled desperately, trying to break free from Xu Jun's restraints. A faint red rhyme appeared on the surface of Xu Jun's body, exuding a strange bloody light. Xu Jun transported the blood body of all souls to the extreme, and didn't pay attention to the long sword in the other party's hand stabbing at him.
However, after just a few breaths, Xu Jun suddenly let go of his hand, covered the other party's mouth, and whispered in the other party's ear: "Don't make a sound, I don't want to hurt you." ”
Conscience finally triumphed over reason, and when Xu Jun saw the other party's stomach rising high, he could no longer hurt the killer. He knew that his actions would most likely put him in a situation from which he could never recover. But he really can't hurt a pregnant woman, this is a corpse with two lives, too lacking in morality.
The other party nodded, indicating that he would not shout, Xu Jun slowly let go of his hand, and the other party gritted his teeth and said: "Bastard, who are you, you don't want to live anymore, you dare to break into Miss Ben's boudoir"
Xu Jun blinked, a moment of surprise, how could this voice sound so familiar. He fixed his eyes and saw that the woman in his arms was none other than Tan Caimao, who he had been looking for and had been missing for a long time.
"Why are you here?" Xu Jun looked at Tan Caimao's big belly, and his brain was dizzy. It's better not to see each other, and it's better to miss than not to see. He felt as if something was shattering in his heart. R1152
