Chapter 9: The Harem

As soon as this one thing was decided, Gu Siyan didn't bother to care about other trivial things, and he didn't even bother to say hello to the patterned sentence of "there is nothing to do and retreat", and he got up directly, and walked off the dragon chair without waiting for everyone to salute, and walked away.

Only Gonggong Jiang's duck-like voice shouted, "Retreat!" Everyone reacted, and the early dynasty was over.

Su Ruoshui stood up slowly and brushed the wrinkled purple court robe that knelt at his knees. The appearance of a bland but cold face made the petty officials who originally wanted to come forward to slap their horses hesitate and did not dare to come forward.

After Emperor Gu Siyan accepted Su Ruoshui's advice, he quickly asked the people from the Ministry of Industry to select the more remote palaces in the palace and send them to the imperial study, ready to compare and make a decision.

After all, it is the residence of the prince of Wei, and if he lives comfortably, maybe when he ascends the throne as emperor in the future, it will be helpful to the Zhou State?

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu asks to see you." Gu Siyan was studying the topographical map of the palace when he heard the familiar male duck throat Jiang Gonggong coming to report.

He tilted his head and pondered for a while, he couldn't figure out why Concubine Shu came here, he didn't embarrass Qin Shangshu today, right?

"Let her in." Gu Siyan continued to study the album in his hand, waved his hand casually, and sent Gonggong Jiang away.

"Your Majesty!" A pretty voice came in from the door of the imperial study first, and after a few breaths, I saw a glamorous young woman wearing a pink wisp of gold and a hundred butterflies wearing a flower cloud satin skirt twisting her waist, "The concubine sees the emperor." ”

"Concubine Ai is exempt," Gu Siyan put down the album in his hand, but he didn't move half a step, only looked at Concubine Shu who bowed in front of him, and asked in a cold tone, "Concubine Ai came to find me, what is the matter?" ”

"Your Majesty," Concubine Shu sneered, and Gonggong Jiang on the side of the hearing was goosebumps, only to hear her say aggrievedly, "The concubine just misses the emperor too much, the emperor said that he would accompany the concubine for lunch today, and the concubine waited for noon and didn't see the emperor's shadow, so she had to find it herself." ”

Gu Siyan never said that she was going to her for lunch today.

But the reason why he doted on Concubine Shu was because he ate her pretending to be pitiful, like a little white rabbit that had been trapped, and he tried to confuse the hunter's stupid appearance with his posture, which was the most cute.

So immediately got up and hugged Shuguifei, who had a pretty and innocent face.

After the two of them had a hearty intimacy, Gu Siyan finally prepared to continue studying the album in his hand as seriously as ever.

"Is the emperor studying where to place the crown prince of Wei?" Concubine Shu put away the gorgeous clothes that fell on her shoulders, her beautiful eyes seemed to inadvertently sweep the album in Gu Siyan's hand, and murmured, "The concubine has a bold idea, I don't know if the emperor is willing to listen to what the concubine has to say." ”

The corners of Gu Siyan's mouth hooked up a sneer, and this charming little white rabbit finally revealed her little short tail.

"I love the concubine, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Gu Siyan nodded slightly in agreement.

"The concubine feels that although she is a little monk, she is the prince of a country in the end, and she is very likely to become the king of a country in the future." Concubine Shu secretly observed Gu Siyan's expression as she spoke, and she was like a tiger, she was actually very scared in her heart when she said this.

Thinking of the bright future that her father had described to her in the morning, she still mustered up her courage and lowered her eyebrows and said, "If you can form an alliance with the Wei State, it will be beneficial to our Great Zhou." ”

Gu Siyan made a very interested look, her dark eyes looked fixedly at the trembling little white rabbit, and nodded to signal her to continue.

"The best way to form an alliance is to marry! And a marriage without affection is meaningless. Concubine Shu was encouraged by the emperor's expression, suppressed her nervousness and uneasiness, and continued to speak, "If you can be a childhood sweetheart, then the emotional matter must come naturally." ”

"So what do you mean, Aifei?" Gu Siyan narrowed his eyes, and had to admit that what Concubine Shu said was very reasonable, and he also felt that the marriage was very feasible.

It's just that he only has two daughters under his knees, an eldest princess, but unfortunately he has already recruited a horse, and even the child is already in his belly. And the eighth princess, a milk doll who is not yet one year old, can she also be sent to cultivate feelings?

"The concubine thinks that it is better to let Prince Wei live closer to the concubine's Xiyun Palace, so that the concubine can naturally find an opportunity to get closer to Prince Wei." Concubine Shu saw that the emperor looked very interested, and the corners of her delicate lips showed a smug smile.

As if to whet the emperor's appetite, he slowly spoke, "When Xirui is three years old, find a reason to force Master Shi'an to take her as an apprentice, so that the two become brothers and sisters, won't the relationship be closer?" ”

Gu Siyan nodded while listening, for some reason he thought that Concubine Shu's idea was too good, and he didn't realize that Shi An was a monk, how could he accept a female apprentice?

Gu Siyan is only calculating now, if the future monarch of Wei becomes his son-in-law, does he still have to fear that Wei will come to attack him at any time?

When everything is done, let his daughter blow the pillow wind for the prince. He didn't dare to think about swallowing Da Wei, but let Da Wei coerce and accept Changguo and Yueguo, isn't it also a matter of hand-to-hand capture?

"It's just that it doesn't seem appropriate to let this foreign prince live in our harem in Da Zhou." Gu Siyan said this, but his eyes had already passed over Concubine Shu and looked at the topographic map on his desk.

"Your Majesty, this temple built in the palace, aren't all the women who go to pay homage to this harem. If it is really cultivated in the previous dynasty, wouldn't it be even worse if the concubines and sisters went to burn incense and worship the Buddha and met those officials. Concubine Shu naturally noticed Gu Siyan's eyes.

Naturally, he stood up from the soft collapse, picked up the topographic map from the table, and said with a smile, "And it's just a few monks with six pure roots who are not close to women, can they compare with the emperor and the ninety-five?" What does the emperor have to worry about? ”

"What Concubine Ai said makes sense!" Gu Siyan hurriedly took the topographic map handed over by Concubine Shugui, hurriedly opened it, and looked at the palace next to Xiyun Palace. But he pressed his temples with a little headache, and the closest palaces were only Chengqian Palace and Yuexian Palace.

There is a queen living in Chengqian's palace, so you can't let the queen make room for a prince from another country, right?

And in the Moon Immortal Palace...... Lived was the once glorious and favored concubine, the concubine was an extremely beautiful woman, when Gu Siyan only saw her, she had a mind that she was bound to win.

Although her identity is only the concubine of a royal historian, Gu Siyan once panicked and forgot to return because of that beautiful face.

If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant a few years ago and unfortunately miscarried, I'm afraid he would still be spoiled by her. He wanted to pamper her, but all the evidence proved that the child in her womb was killed by the queen.

He is also very heartbroken for the loss of his child, but can he offend a first-grade prime minister for the sake of a four-grade imperial history? He also longed for the matter of being angry at the crown, but he couldn't do it.

He was the emperor first, and then a husband, and the situation in the harem determined the direction of the previous dynasty, which every emperor and concubine understood. It's a pity that he understands, but Yueji doesn't understand.

So when he went to the Moon Immortal Hall later, he could only see a haggard woman, crying and accusing him of inaction.

He thought it would be good after a while. After a while, he forgot.

There is never a shortage of beautiful and moving women in the palace. Without the monthly concubines, there will be tens of millions of star concubines and daily concubines.

If it weren't for this today, Gu Siyan might not have remembered that he had once pampered a woman named Yue Concubine. Only now that he remembered it, he hesitated again.

I wonder if she has come out of the pain of losing her son after so long? Isn't she as glamorous as she was at the beginning?

Gu Siyan couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this, and calmed down again, only said impatiently to Concubine Shu, "I have my own thoughts, this matter is very important, and we need to think about it in the long run, so Concubine Ai will go back first." ”

Concubine Shu had long been accustomed to Gu Siyan's uncertainties and indecision, and she didn't care that he didn't agree now. Man, he must have remembered the past days when he lived in the Moon Immortal Hall and the slut, and he was in love again.

Concubine Shu was not worried at all, she went to the Moon Immortal Hall before she came to the imperial study.

Whether this matter is successful or not, she can't forget the anger she received from that concubine back then. Therefore, it is estimated that when it is time for dinner, someone will find that in the cold palace-like Moon Immortal Palace, there is a moon concubine who has run out of breath.

It doesn't matter what she did and why she did it, those who are destined to be stumbling blocks will all end up the same, what difference is it to be moved away and kicked out?

Sure enough, Concubine Shu woke up on the second day, and heard the little eunuch report that the Moon Immortal Palace had begun to be renovated.

And the silent concubine who died, the emperor only waved his hand and let Gonggong Jiang deal with it on his behalf. The emperor doesn't like to see dead people, and he probably won't even see the last side of the concubine, so he will directly ask people to send the body of the concubine back to the Imperial Mansion.

Concubine Shu sneered lightly, since ancient times, emperors have been the most ruthless.

She knew it, but she still wanted to send the eighth princess who was still in infancy to another harem, another place to eat women without spitting out bones.

She probably won't be able to be a queen in her life, but she hopes that her eighth princess can.

Maybe one day, her eighth princess will become the queen of Wei, and her ninth prince will have more opportunities to sit in that position? People are such monsters, and the more they have, the more they want to have.

Human desire has always been a bottomless abyss.

The Moon Immortal Hall was quickly demolished, and then a Shi'an Temple was rebuilt on the original foundation.

Since Gu Siyan gave the Huguo Temple to the Xuanqing Sanren, there have been courtiers who have impeached him anonymously, all of them are overt and covertly He insulted the Daoist master Shi An, and those stupid courtiers thought that if they didn't sign it, he didn't know who was writing the excerpts.
