Yue'er stayed for a moment, and suddenly thought that this opportunity was not exactly what she was looking forward to, compared to the grievances of the Ran family, this sacrifice was nothing!

"Niangniang, let's prepare the bath makeup for you, right?"

Lan Qiu flattered the authentic.

Ji Hong also said flatteringly: "Sleep for the emperor, the two of us have experience." ”

Yue'er shook her head.

"It's like serving in winter, and you can clean up the dormitory."

Lan Qiu and Ji Hong responded, they were a little strange, Rudong did things extravagantly, why did Concubine Duan like her to serve.

The time will pass.

Xuan Ling had not yet arrived, but Yu Shanggong brought two palace maids to Anhua Palace, and the two palace maids were still holding a cloth bag.

Yue'er felt a little uneasy in her heart, it stands to reason that the female official who came tonight should be a Shang Shu, Shang Meng is the fifth in the female ranks, and is responsible for the emperor's living and sleeping, why did Yu Shang Palace come from?

I saw Yu Shanggong wrenching her face, owing to Yue'er, her eyes swept over Rudong and a few people, Rudong saluted respectfully, she is now standing at the front, like the palace maid of Anhua Palace, seeing Rudong's expression, Yu Shanggong's face swept a touch of imperceptible gloom.

Lan Qiu pulled Rudong's sleeve, looking a little anxious, but Rudong didn't know what she was going to say, so she still stood like a pen.

"Concubine Duanniang, the emperor wants you to sleep tonight, are you ready?"

"Yes, the concubines have bathed and changed their clothes, just waiting for the emperor to arrive."

Yu Shanggong nodded and walked straight to the dormitory, Yue'er hesitated for a moment, and followed in, Rudong, Lanqiu, and Binliang followed, while Ji Hong and Lu Yao stayed outside the door.

There is a fire in the dormitory, it is very warm, a smell of sandalwood is there, the bed has been made, and it is a splendid mandarin duck quilt.

The two palace maids beside Yu Shanggong put down the cloth bag and entered the hall to check, they checked very carefully, even under the bed, Yue'er vaguely knew some rules of the bed, knew that this was looking for forbidden things, if there were scissors or something like that, they would take it away.

After a stick of incense, the two palace maids finished inspecting, and they nodded towards Yu Shanggong.

Yu Shanggong looked at Yue'er and said coldly: "Very good, you know the rules, I won't go into details, come, you help Concubine Duan take off her clothes." ”

The two palace maids walked up to Yue'er and went to untie her clothes, Yue'er was embarrassed and covered her chest, she knew that this was the last check.

Yu Shanggong snorted and said, "What's the matter, Niangniang has served the emperor, and now she has forgotten the rules?" ”

Yue'er gritted her teeth and slowly let go of her hand, and the two palace maids took off Yue'er's clothes one by one.

Lan Qiu and Bin Liang knelt down, not daring to look up, and Rudong hesitated for a moment and knelt down.

A snow-white body is presented in the hall, Yue'er's body is like a budding flower, and like a jade bottle in the quiet room, noble and elegant, crystal clear.

During this time, it was the time for Yue'er to grow her body, she ate well, slept well, her body developed all of a sudden, and she was already a girl, and at this moment she only felt a strong sense of shame welling up in her heart.

Yu Shanggong took out a jade stick from his sleeve, walked around Yue'er twice, and suddenly poked her hard, Yue'er screamed in pain, took half a step back, but stood still, she had never suffered such humiliation since she was a child, and she couldn't resist.

"Hmph, this year, I've maintained it well, but it's a pity that my face was ruined."

Now Yue'er understands why the concubines in the palace are afraid of this woman, because she can trample on their dignity at will.

Yu Shanggong nodded to the two palace maids, and the two palace maids immediately opened the cloth bag, took out a snow-white towel from it, wrapped Yue'er, and then carried her to the bed and put it away.

Yue'er tried her best to hold back her tears, she felt that it was an unbearable humiliation.

After all this was done, Lan Qiu blew out the two lights, and the light in the dormitory dimmed.

Yu Shanggong said coldly: "Now that you all go out, this palace wants to say a few words to Concubine Duan alone." ”

Lan Qiu and the others answered and went out together.

Yu Shanggong looked at Yue'er and snorted.

"You sleep tonight, you must not touch the emperor, let alone have a love with him!"

Yue'er sighed, at a loss for a moment.

"You're just sleeping tonight, and you can't do anything, understand?"

"Why?"

"Didn't the emperor tell you that he needs to take care of himself now?"

Yue'er remembered that yesterday in the imperial chariot, Xuan Ling said that he had back pain, and he had been recuperating with the queen for three days, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then, does the emperor know?"

"Of course you know, or he'll come to you? So you must not arouse his desires, the imperial doctor explained, the emperor has a deficit of kidney yuan, and he is not allowed to have sex within three months, you can do it yourself! ”

"Yes, yes—"

Yue'er agreed, and her heart suddenly felt relieved.

"Also, this matter is absolutely confidential, and you must not tell anyone, this will affect the emperor's reputation, understand?"

"Yes, the concubine knows."

Yu Shanggong called out to Bin Liang, and Bin Liang pushed the door in.

"Prison Bin, you've worked hard to serve here tonight!"

"Yes, little one."

Yu Shanggong glanced at Yue'er on the bed and turned away.

Yue'er's tears finally slipped down.

Bin Liang knelt on the ground, heard Yue'er's soft sobs, and finally spoke: "Niangniang, you, don't mind, every concubine serving the emperor has to go through this formality." ”

Yue'er snorted, she didn't understand what it meant to go through the motions.

"Niangniang, Yu Shanggong embarrassed you today because you didn't prepare a meeting gift for her."

"What?"

"If there is no meeting gift, Yu Shanggong will make it difficult for you, this matter, the villain thinks that you should arrange for Sister Lan Qiu or Ji Hong to be responsible, because Sister Rudong doesn't understand at all, and she hasn't asked."

Yue'er suddenly realized that all this can be done through the motions.

"What is the greeting gift?"

"This is the secret rule in the palace, the first time you go to bed, you have to wrap fifty taels of silver, Yu Shang Palace gets forty taels, and the two palace maids are five taels each, which is also a please, and you won't have to do it in the future."

"I see, why didn't you remind Rudong before?"

"The villain thought that Sister Lan Qiu and they would remind them, but no one said anything, just now the little one saw Lan Qiu La Rudong's clothes corner, it should be a reminder."

Yue'er scolded Rudong in her heart, this girl is really careless, she doesn't understand this kind of thing, and she doesn't ask others.

"Niangniang, in fact, Yu Shanggong is polite to you today."

"Oh, why?"

"Half a year ago, a beauty was arranged to sleep for the first time, she didn't know the rules, Yu Shanggong directly stabbed her with a jade stick in her hand, and said that she was not clean, but the emperor never wanted to see that beauty again."

Yue'er sighed, she couldn't imagine that life in the palace was so dark, and every step was full of interests, calculations and conspiracies.

"Why is Yu Shanggong in charge of the bed, not the female official in charge of the bed?"

"This, this, this year is Yu Shanggong, the person in charge of the bed was originally Ling Shangyu, but Concubine Yuan is sick, and she has been taking care of Concubine Yuan's daily life, so this matter is taken care of by Yu Shanggong."

Yue'er didn't make a sound, thinking about whether to make up for this meeting gift, otherwise Yu Shanggong would embarrass herself.

After touching a stick of incense, the sound of the royal chariot and horse came from outside the hall, and after a while, Rudong and Lan Qiu led Xuan Ling into the dormitory.

Xuan Ling had some ink fragrance on his body, and it seemed that he had just finished writing, he came in and sat on the edge of the bed, touched Yue'er's hair with one hand, and asked, "How is it, do you still like it here?" ”

Xuan Ling's tone still carried gunpowder, and he was obviously angry at Lin Zhaoyi's burning of the Painting Pavilion.

"I like it, thank you for Your Majesty's arrangement, Your Majesty's grace, the concubines can't be reciprocated."

Seeing that there was only a little eunuch left in the dormitory, Xuan Ling waved his hand to Bin Liang and said, "It's all arranged outside, you go out, there is no need to serve here!" ”

Bin Liang responded.

"Yes, the villain is guarding next door, if the emperor and the mother have any needs, just shout."

"Go, go!"

Xuan Ling was a little impatient.

When Bin Liang went out, Xuan Ling took off his clothes and got into the quilt, he stared at Yue'er's face for a while, and finally shook his head and lay down.
