Chapter 2: The Concubine

When Li Mingsheng returned to the Heart Cultivation Palace, his head was groggy, and as soon as he sat on the dragon chair, Yang Jieyun walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup. "Your Majesty, the concubines saw that the emperor had been working on state affairs recently, and specially ordered the imperial dining room to boil a bowl of ginseng soup. I don't know if it's to your taste, would you like to take a bite? Yang Jieyun put the ginseng soup in front of Li Mingsheng.

Li Mingsheng smiled and shook Yang Jieyun's hand: "Jie'er, you still feel sorry for me." ”

"As long as the emperor is healthy, the concubines will be satisfied." Yang Jiejun smiled shyly.

"I think when I was still the prince, you worked hard for the prince's mansion. Jie'er, I am fortunate to be able to marry a virtuous wife like you. Li Mingsheng let go of Yang Jieyun's hand, picked up the ginseng soup in front of him and tasted it.

Yang Jieyun shook her head: "Although the concubine is not the emperor's rightful wife, the concubine is willing to give everything for the emperor." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, in my eyes, you are equivalent to my wife, and it doesn't matter if you have that false name or not." Li Mingsheng touched Yang Jieyun's head.

"Don't talk about this," Yang Jieyun was a little disappointed, but she still continued, "The concubine has drawn up a roster of show girls, should the emperor take a look at it first?" ”

Li Mingsheng shook his head: "Jie'er does things, I am naturally very relieved." By the way, Mrs. Xi, you also have to help supervise her, and let her learn the palace rules and etiquette as soon as possible. ”

Yang Jieyun nodded: "The concubine will order the people of the Shang Palace Bureau to speed up the teaching of etiquette." ”

"Then Jie'er, you should step back first, I want to be alone and quiet." Li Mingsheng commanded.

Yang Jieyun got up and was blessed, and then retreated.

When he walked out of the Heart Nourishing Palace, Xuan'er, the personal maid, stepped forward and asked, "Concubine Niangniang, did the emperor mention that he wanted to give you a title?" ”

"Alas, not only did the emperor not mention the title, but even the throne did not intend to give it to the palace. Xuan'er, do you say that the emperor still loves me? Yang Jieyun was a little sad.

Xuan'er said: "Niangniang, you have been with the emperor since you were a child, and your relationship is so deep, how can others compare?" If this throne is not given to you, who else does the emperor plan to give it? ”

Hongu was also very puzzled. Although this palace does not have to get this posterior position, if it is given by others one day, how can this palace feel at ease? Yang Jieyun sighed.

"Niangniang, don't think about it too much, maybe in a few days, the emperor will give Niangniang the throne. Besides, Niangniang, you are the only concubine in the harem who does not need to take the soup to avoid the child, which shows that the emperor still values you very much. Xuan'er comforted.

"I hope so." Yang Jieyun said.

Shanggong Bureau.

A few slaves and maids hurriedly walked into Mingguang Hall from outside, and were about to salute and report the situation, when they heard the newly promoted Li Shanggong say: "That master is temperamental again?" ”

A few slaves and maids were at a loss, and they didn't know how to answer.

Li Nianyu turned around, looked at the slaves in front of him, and smiled: "It's not your fault, the master of Xi is the princess of the Tuoba clan, although the emperor said that she should learn the palace rules, but if this master is unwilling to learn, we can't force it." When I sent someone to the concubine Niangniang, I said that Mrs. Xi had a strong temperament and was unwilling to learn the palace rules, so that the concubine would make the decision for us, so as not to make people feel that the people in our palace bureau were easy to bully. ”

"Yes, Lord Shangmiya." When the slaves and maids saw Shang Gong protecting themselves so much, they couldn't help but admire this new Shang Gong a little more. It turned out that because of his old age, the old Shang Gong got a reward from the palace and went out of the palace to live for the rest of his life. The newly promoted Shang Gong was originally only a seven-grade classic, and he crossed two levels to sit in the Shang Palace of the fifth grade, which made people talk about it. But her standards of conduct are not dragged in the slightest, and the Shanggong Bureau is still managed in an orderly manner, and gradually the discussion is gone.

"Come on, pass the Zihui to see this seat." Li Nianyu sighed at the Buddhist beads in his hand and showed a smile.
