Chapter 316: Before Ascending the Throne
"Hahaha. Xu Dong couldn't help laughing, "It turns out that you are playing that ghost." ”
Zhao Ke said, "Yes, a few days ago, I was called to Tingyun Palace to teach etiquette in the palace, and looking at their seriousness, I knew that I would never be able to return to the original seventeenth princess." ”
Xu Dong was very surprised, "What, even your seventeenth princess still has to teach the etiquette in the palace, it's too mysterious, who is not afraid of death, and forces your seventeenth princess to learn the etiquette in the palace." ”
Zhao Ke's phoenix eyes went up, "Aren't people bidding farewell to the identity of the seventeenth princess, when you are a queen, you have to be a queen, if I don't learn etiquette, how can I manage the harem in the future." ”
Xu Dong smiled and said, "Okay, you should prepare to be the queen." ”
When he turned to leave, Zhao Ke stopped him from behind, "After you ascend the throne, take the pot and spatula with you, and let someone else be your personal eunuch, I don't think it's reliable." ”
Xu Dong said, "Of course I am willing, but are you willing?" ”
Zhao Ke said, "Yes, of course." ”
Xu Dong came to the "Void Palace", and the moment he walked into the 'door' of the palace, he didn't know how many times he had met Zhao Lun here, but he didn't expect that he had become the master here and was going to meet his courtiers here.
The old man in black and more than a hundred ministers were waiting in the store, and after Xu Dong was helped to the throne by the two ministers, all the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live" three times.
Xu Dong saw that the people kneeling at his feet were all old people, and thought to himself, although he didn't come to the palace much on weekdays, there were some times, why didn't he see these old guys.
"Everyone, love Qing Ping. ”
The old man in black handed a booklet to Xu Dong, "Your Majesty, the list of all the ministers in the palace is all on this booklet, you can click on this booklet, so that you can get to know the ministers." ”
Xu Dong said, "Okay. ”
He picked up the booklet and pointed according to the name on it, "Prime Minister, Gan Huoyun." ”
An old man with a 'fine' son and a white beard stood up, "Your Majesty, the old minister is Gan Huoyun, who began to appear in the hands of Zhao Guan, the emperor of the previous dynasty, and it is already the third dynasty to you." ”
"Oh, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties. Xu Dongshen 'groaned' and continued to read, "The Book of Rites, Zhang Hu." ”
"To. An old minister, who looked to be in his sixties, with his hair and beard still green, replied respectfully.
Xu Dong continued to point down, "The Ministry of Officials, Dai Ding." ”
"Your Majesty, the old minister is Dai Ding. ”
Xu Dong saw that this old minister was even more old, he was the oldest among more than 100 people, and he thought to himself, he was only thirty years old, and it was appropriate to continue to use such an old minister as the secretary of the ministry.
"Dai Ding, you have a high birthday this year. ”
Dai Ding said, "The old minister is only a little more than two 'flowers', 'Lao Ji is in the middle of nowhere, and his ambition is thousands of miles', the emperor, I am the official of the fourth dynasty in your dynasty, and the old minister hopes to continue to serve the new dynasty." ”
Xu Dong was shocked, there was actually a 120-year-old veteran of the Four Dynasties in such an important position, he felt very strange, so he picked up the pen on the case and wrote the word "to be determined" under Dai Ding's name.
The old man in black watched him do this, and stopped him with his eyes, which meant to say, "Your Majesty, you can't change the ministers of the previous dynasty at will, this is a rule handed down from previous dynasties." ”
Xu Dong understood and pretended not to understand, regardless of the rules or not, he wrote the word "to be determined" under the names of the next few courtiers who did not like him.
After meeting with the ministers, the ministers withdrew one after another, leaving only the old man in black and Xu Dong in the palace.
The old man in black said, "As the Dharma Protector Elder on duty, I have to perform my duties, you come with me." ”
As he spoke, the old man in black led Xu Dong into a hut in the hall, the room was dark and full of choking must, and the old man lit the green lamp placed on one wall, and the room suddenly became bright.
"See for yourself, this is the precept written by the founding emperor of the country of Rato, no matter who becomes the emperor, even if the Zen position is given to someone of the opposite 'sex' to become the emperor, you must abide by the above precept. ”
Xu Dong looked at a few lines of large characters on the wall, on which were clearly written some rules and precepts for the monarch of the current dynasty, almost dozens, one of which was written.
"Everything that has been handed down from the upper dynasties, including the Taoist temple and the Zen temple...... The officials and harem concubines should be inherited and accepted by the next dynasty, and they should not be exchanged or abandoned, because these are the vitality accumulated by our dynasty. ”
Xu Dong was about to jump up, "That's right, even the ministers and harem concubines have to accept it all, so if the son inherits the great cause of Lao Tzu, and then goes to the concubine left by his father, wouldn't it be **." ”
The old man in black said, "Don't worry about it, generally the monarchs of the former dynasty have taken away their main palace maidens and favorite concubines, and those who remain are not used by the royal family or rarely used by the royal family, and there is no **no**." ”
Xu Dong asked, "What about ...... When my father was a monk, he took those ladies and concubines with him. ”
The old man in black said clearly, "Since the emperor is a monk and cultivates, he has never taken a harem royal lady with him." ”
In the explosion of the green lantern, Xu Dong's brain exploded very clearly, he was almost stunned, how could he use the old 'women' left by Zhao Lun.
However, he still grabbed one, "Is the father the emperor 'handed' over, after I ascend the throne, I must make the seventeenth princess the queen, and only set up the main palace and not the west palace, and everyone else only has the identity of concubines." ”
The old man in black said, "Yes, you remember. ”
Xu Dong asked, "Since I have set up the seventeenth princess as the queen, and only the main palace and not the west palace, where will I put Queen Li?" ”
The old man in black smiled rarely, "You don't have to worry about this, Empress Li has already been given a pill by the emperor to return to heaven, in addition to Empress Li, there are more than ten other older ones, and those who stayed were all selected to enter the palace not long ago." ”
Xu Dongcai took a deep breath as if he had been drowning in the water for a long time, it turned out that he had been making trouble for a long time, but it was just a false alarm.
The old man in black said, "I want to remind you that if you mark the word "pending" under the names of those old ministers, it can't be counted, and you can't change their official positions casually. ”
Xu Dong's anger was smoother than before, although Zhao Lun left him this pile of old antiques, but gave those old emperors to death, and did not give any old 'woman' a chance to eat his tender grass, which is still more human'sexual.
He asked, "Why, I can't change this, I have to accept it, what use do I have as the emperor, don't I make it clear that I am a puppet." ”
The old man in black said solemnly, "You can't say that, you can't say that it is blasphemy against the founding monarch, please don't be impatient, you will know the benefits of these old ministers after a long time." ”
In fact, Xu Dong is just venting his grievances, he can't change anything at all, to be honest, he doesn't have the 'fine' strength to make those changes.
The old man in black smiled again, "Okay, now I'll take you to the harem." He looked at a booklet in his hand, "There are thirty-two concubines and forty-eight nobles in the harem, let you recognize the 'door' first." ”
"Okay. ”
He followed the old man in black to a palace, which said "Ice Wheel Palace", the palace 'door' was half hidden, and the old man in black said, "You go in and take a look yourself, I'm waiting at the palace 'gate'." ”
Pushing the 'door' in, the two palace maids immediately stepped forward to greet him and asked, "May I ask who this son of yours is, and whether he went to the wrong 'door'." ”
Xu Dong saw that these two palace maids were mediocre, and he was displeased at first, and he said angrily, "Who am I, I am the emperor who is about to ascend the throne." ”
"Ahh The two palace maids cried out in surprise, "You are the seventeenth horse master, the seventeenth horse master, let us get lucky, and I'm afraid we can have some luck." ”
Before Xu Dong could react, two pairs of young 'female' hands were 'messy' and 'touching' all over his body, and when he 'touched' his lower body, the two hands quickly opened as if they had accidentally 'touched' a soldering iron.
"Ahh The two mouths were so startled that they were like a 'chicken' egg, and they couldn't close together, and their faces quickly turned red.
Xu Donggang wanted to yell at them, "What do you do, what do you do." I thought that these 'female' children were also pitiful, they were sold to the palace by their parents as maidservants, and they had no possibility of contact with the opposite 'sex' in their lives, and they were even more pitiful than those eunuchs who were castrated.
He didn't yell at the two palace maids, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a beautiful lady standing in front of him, "Your Majesty, please come in with your concubines." ”
Xu Dong was moved by this beautiful girl's whispering, he was led by her hand to the inner room, and the 'door' was quickly closed by her, and the beautiful lady looked Xu Dong up and down, looking so happy that she couldn't help herself.
Mei Jiaoniang boldly hooked Xu Dong's neck with her hand, and whispered in his ear, "Your Majesty, the concubine wants it now, Your Majesty, give it to me." ”
Xu Dong blushed, "Wait, I don't know what your name is, how old you are, how many years have you been in the palace." ”
Mei Jiao Niang replied truthfully, "My name is Zhou Nan, and the emperor will call me Nan'er in the future, I am nineteen this year, and I have been in the palace for three years." ”
"I've been in the palace for three years. Xu Dong asked, "Haven't you been titled by the former emperor, or have you given birth to .......?"
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Zhou Nan said hypocritically, "I have never been broken by the former emperor, let alone given birth to a prince and a princess." ”
Xu Dong said, "How is this possible, you don't 'deceive' me, I won't blame you, it's not your fault." ”
"It's real. Zhou Nan widened his eyes seriously, "The former emperor has never been fortunate to me, he only put me in the palace as a 'flower' vase, if you don't believe it, the emperor will know later." ”
Xu Dong fell in love with this beautiful girl a little, because there was an old man in black waiting at the entrance of the palace 'gate', he didn't dare to delay the time, and hurriedly withdrew from the room.
Zhou Nan said, "Your Majesty, don't you want a concubine now." ”
Xu Dong said, "You keep it for me, and I will come to you." ”
Coming out of the "Ice Wheel Palace", Xu Dong complained as soon as he saw the old man in black, "How could such a rumor spread that this rumor actually came out of the Pure Yang Palace." ”
The old man in black asked, "What rumors?" ”
"To say, 'The Seventeenth Horse Master is a lucky star in the sky, and if the 'girl' sleeps, he can become a fairy, and he can be happy for a lifetime by 'touching'", it is really an empty 'hole'. ”
The old man in black said, "I am also looking for the source of this matter, I believe that there will be an eyebrow soon, Seventeen Horse Master, this is Lao Dao's negligence as a Dharma Protector Elder, and Lao Dao should be blamed." ”
