Chapter 113: The Ruthless Emperor
After the second round of the draft, there are more than 100 show girls left, and the last round originally needed to be personally selected by Ye Qiu, first, he didn't have this mind, and secondly, he was busy with the matter of opening shipping and building official studies recently, and he couldn't spare this time, and finally this matter fell on the Empress Dowager Xiao and the queen, Xiao Guifei was unwilling, and she was coquettish in the queen mother, and also intervened.
The matter of this draft is completely out of Ye Qiu's control, even if he himself is reluctant, whether it is the previous dynasty or the harem, they are trying their best to promote the development of this matter, and in the end, the final result of the competition between the forces of all parties is that Ye Qiu's harem has ten more concubines.
Empress Dowager Xiao looked at the girls with flowers and branches and smiled kindly, as if she had seen the lovely grandchildren waving at her, although the queen was uncomfortable, but over the years, the emperor trusted, the prince was motivated, she no longer needed this ethereal favor, but Xiao Guifei, biting a mouthful of silver teeth, her eyes were dangerous.
Xiao Zi and Xiao Ke were successfully elected into the harem under the operation of Xiao Boran, Xiao Zi was the daughter of the Xiao family and Ye Qiu's cousin, and the position was not good to give too low, and finally sealed the concubine, and Xiao Ke was much worse than her, and the beauties of the fifth grade were all women of the Xiao family.
In addition to Xiao Zi, there are also the daughters of the Ministry of Shangshu and the daughters of the Zhang family of the Hou Mansion who are also concubines, one of whom is the same as Xiao Ke, Li Meiren, who has been sealed with the fifth grade, is particularly attention-grabbing.
Li Meiren is just the daughter of a county official, and her father is just a seven-grade county official, according to the example, even if she is selected, she has to start from the last grade of the girl, but she herself is so good that the Queen Mother can't help but make an exception for her.
Everyone says that the Xiao family is a beauty, when the Empress Dowager Xiao was favored by the first emperor with her excellent appearance, she could also be the crown princess when her family background was not obvious, it can be seen that her appearance is not ordinary, to the next generation, Xiao Guifei is the title of the first beauty in the capital, and she is the concubine when she enters the palace, although her cousin Xiao Zi is not as beautiful and glamorous as Xiao Guifei, but a dusty temperament is particularly exciting.
But as soon as this Li beauty appeared, she was really compared to the two daughters of the Xiao family, she was wearing a tender yellow shirt today, lining her little face as white as jade, black hair pulled a girl's bun, and a pink beaded hairpin was held on the bun, with a tassel hanging on it, when she spoke, the tassel swayed, her eyebrows were slender and picturesque, her eyes flashed like stars, her high nose bridge was ruddy and small, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved upward, but there was a hint of bookish air in it.
What's even better is that there is a red beauty mole under her left eyebrow, when she looks at you and smiles, with a moving style, Empress Dowager Xiao likes it at first sight, especially this Li Mei's family background is not obvious, and even the queen has no opinion.
Xiao Guifei instantly regarded Li Meiren as her number one enemy, but in fact, not only her, but even the other women in the harem also had a faint hostility towards Li Meiren.
Today is the third day after the election, and all the new concubines have also arranged their residences, and the Queen Mother specially invited them to enjoy the flowers in the Imperial Garden, and at the same time to recognize Ye Qiu.
This body has a beauty-loving nature, otherwise he would not have been infatuated by Xiao Guifei for many years in his previous life, he deliberately restrained himself in this life, and he has been safe for a few years, but at this moment, his heart is throbbing slightly.
Ye Qiu complied with his heart's wishes, and turned over Li Meiren's brand that night, the show girls below the concubine position needed to be carried by the attendants to the Heart Cultivation Hall to sleep, and when Ye Qiu came back after the performance, Li Meiren also happened to finish bathing.
She was wearing snow-white underwear, but she didn't look as delicate and white as her skin, her hair was scattered, because it was not completely dried, there were still droplets of water on the tips of her hair, two red clouds were faint on her little face, and her big bright eyes seemed to be shy and curious to look around, which looked very delicious.
Ye Qiu found that her breath had become unstable, her eyes were burning at her, and the palace maids noticed the ambiguous atmosphere in the room, and retreated with interest.
"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty." Li Wan saluted in a panic and weakness, with panic and shyness in her crisp voice.
Ye Qiu only felt that his heart was moving, his feet had unconsciously approached her, and his powerful big hand helped her up and brought her into his arms, and a vision drilled into his nostrils, and the two got closer.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but ruffle her clothes, when touching the smooth white skin, he could no longer restrain himself, the lights were on and off, the figure floated, and the powerful roar of a man and the soft panting of a woman came from the dragon bed.
Father-in-law Shun waited outside the room, listening to the fierce voice in the room, and secretly thought in his heart, this Li beauty is a good skill, and the harem is afraid that there will be another favorite concubine.
This night, Ye Qiu called for water three times, and the palace people served Li Meiren more dedicatedly, as soon as the day dawned, the harem already knew about Li Meiren's promotion to Jieyu, and she was honored with the title.
This stunned everyone, and in one night she was promoted from the fifth grade to the fourth grade, and this is it, the emperor actually gave her another title, Rong, what a gift! Don't you see, didn't Concubine Xiao have a title when she was favored?
In this harem, I'm afraid that there will be another "Xiao Guifei", maybe she will be even more favored!
So there are more jealous people in this harem, and there are more people who watch jokes.
"This slut." Xiao Rou smashed another vase, her beautiful face was full of anger, and she looked carefully with some grievances and injuries, could it be that the emperor's cousin really didn't like her?
In Weiyang Palace, Li Yanlan was fed fish food without a match, and the grandmother next to her carefully said: "Niangniang, Your Majesty turned over Rong Jieyu's brand again tonight." ”
Li Yanlan's hand froze, she originally thought that Li Wan was no threat except for her beauty and low family background, but today was the third consecutive night that the emperor summoned Rong Jieyu, she couldn't help but feel a little flustered, it seemed that something had been out of her control.
If Rong Jieyu gives birth to a prince one day, with His Majesty's favor for her, will her and the prince's position still be as stable as today? Li Yanlan was not sure.
In the Heart Nourishing Palace, Ye Qiu looked at the beauty under the lamp, and involuntarily felt a trance again, he stepped forward quickly, and held the beauty in his arms, his face was already buried deep in her neck, the familiar fragrance hit, and his heart was ready to move.
