251. The Golden Palace shocked the people
I saw that after Zhu Houxi stopped Queen Zhang, he walked up to Queen Zhang and asked in a heavy tone:
"Empress Zhang, did you invite the two queen mothers?"
Empress Zhang lowered her head and said:
"Yes...... No...... It's ......!"
Zhu Houxi shouted loudly again:
"Is it or isn't?"
Empress Zhang had to tremble and say:
"Yes......!"
Zhu Houxi came over and slapped Queen Zhang directly, and said:
"Don't think that you will please the queen mother, I will not dare to abolish you, if you interfere in my affairs in the future, I will definitely let you never see me again in this life!"
At this time, Empress Zhang ran out crying directly.
Zhu Houxi sighed, then walked out of the hall and came to Mingxi and asked:
"Mingxi, are you alright?"
Mingxi replied:
"Thank you for the emperor's rescue, Mingxi is fine!"
Zhu Houxi said again:
"Whoever bullies you in the harem, just tell me!"
Then he said to the palace maids, eunuchs, and show girls on the side:
"Did you hear what I just said?"
The people who knelt on the ground around immediately replied together:
"I heard you!"
At this time, Zhu Houxi said to Mingxi again:
"I'm still busy going back to review the folds, you have a good rest, and you're ready to take me tomorrow!"
didn't wait for Mingxi to reply, and hurried away.
Du Buyi had already hid on the eaves at this time, seeing that Mingxi was fine, and he was relieved.
After all, the guards in the palace are too strict, and it is difficult for him to enter and exit alone, and it is even more difficult to talk about saving Mingxi, so he has to go back temporarily and then find a way.
It was late at night when Du Bu Bu returned to the inn, and after returning to the room, Du Bu Bu took off his coat and lay on the bed, ready to sleep, but at this time someone pushed the door in, so that Du Bu Bu was startled, it turned out that Xian'er was coming.
I saw Xian'er enter the room and close the door, then walked to Du Buyi's bed and sat down.
At this time, Du Buyi also got up and asked:
"Xian'er, why haven't you slept yet?"
Xian'er replied:
"If you run out quietly and don't tell me, where can I sleep!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Then how can Brother Fu sleep?"
Xian'er said:
"Are you comparing me to Big Brother Fu? I'm not your man!"
Du did not forget to smile and said:
"Also, I almost forgot that you were a woman!"
Xian'er glared at Du Zhiyi, deliberately straightened her chest, and asked:
"Am I really like a man?"
Du Bu didn't forget to look at it with a smile and said:
"The personality is like a man, and the body is still a woman!"
Xian'er asked in a whisper:
"Then where do you say my body looks like a woman?"
Du did not forget and replied:
"You're wearing so much, where can I see it?"
Xian'er replied:
"In that case, then I'll show you!"
Then he took off his clothes directly, revealing a belly pocket in front of Du Zhiyi, and then asked:
"I look like a woman now, right?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Like!"
He sat up and hugged Xian'er.
Xian'er said:
"Brother Du, we haven't been happy together for a long time!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"yes, it's been years!"
Then he asked:
"Haven't you looked for another man in years?"
Xian'er replied:
"I'm not a young fairy anymore, but I'm not as ignorant as I used to be, I only have you in my heart, how can I find other men?"
Du did not forget to say:
"Xian'er, you look really mature!"
kissed Xian'er on the neck from behind.
Xian'er replied:
"I'm mature, I don't know Brother Du, you're still not what you were at the beginning?"
Du did not forget to smile and said:
"Then try it!"
Xian'er lay directly on the bed and said:
"Brother Du, I'm waiting for you!"
Du Buyi immediately took off his clothes and pressed towards Xian'er.
The two are naturally familiar with the road, a few clouds and rains, and a few chaotic battles.
On the second day, after Du did not forget to get up, he still didn't tell Xian'er and Fu Tianchen, and came to the palace alone, wanting to sneak into the palace.
At this time, I happened to meet Lord Lu of the Ryukyu Kingdom and others who were about to enter the palace, Du Bu did not forget to follow this Lord Lu into the palace, and after entering the palace, Du Bu Bu did not forget to go to the toilet under the pretext of stomach discomfort, so he threw off the guards, pretended to be a small eunuch, and quietly mixed into the Shouchang Palace.
At this time, there was a row of jubilant scenes in Shouchang Palace, naturally because Emperor Zhu Houxi wanted to seal a show girl here as the imperial concubine, and this show girl was not an ordinary person, but Princess Mingxi of Fusang.
And the eunuch Du did not forget to pretend to be the eunuch who was also going to support Mingxi to the Taihe Hall to participate in the ceremony of Jin Feng Guifei today.
Why did you choose today, because today is an important day, that is, Zhu Houyu met with the envoys of the surrounding vassal states and friendly countries, and Zhu Houyu also took this opportunity to promote to the envoys of various states the goodwill of the Qin and Jin dynasties that the Ming Dynasty and the Fusang State were about to form.
At this time, only the ministers in Beijing above the third grade of the Taihe Hall were eligible to enter the palace, and they were all tightly crowded in the corners of both sides of the hall, and the middle position was reserved for the envoys of various countries.
I only heard the eunuch read:
"Prince Fuso has arrived!"
The Fusang man on the Bajiao Bridge I saw yesterday first walked into the palace and was directly invited by the two eunuchs to a high position next to Zhu Houxi's Jinluan throne.
Then the envoys of the Tatar State, the envoy of the Watts, the envoy of the Northern Empire, the envoy of Siam, the envoy of Bukhara, the envoy of Turpan, the envoy of Yarkand, the envoy of Korea, the envoy of the Ryukyus, and the envoy of the Great Dharma King of Tibet entered the palace one after another with the tributes of the envoys.
After the envoys settled, Zhu Houyu began to speak to the envoys in the hall, only to hear Zhu Houyu say:
"Today is the day when envoys from various countries come to visit my Daming, it is a festive day, but in order to be more happy, I specially rewarded Princess Mingxi of Fusang Kingdom as my Ming Emperor's concubine today!"
Then he pointed to the Fuso man standing on the side under the dragon chair, and said:
"This is the Prince of Fusang Baihe who came to witness the friendship between our Ming Dynasty and Fusang Kingdom and the Qin and Jin Dynasties!"
At this time, a eunuch immediately brought a stool for Prince Baihe.
At this time, a messenger from His Highness called:
"We want to see the Emperor of the Celestial Empire's newly married concubine!"
Zhu Houxi replied:
"Everyone, don't be in a hurry, it's not too late to enjoy our Ming song and dance first, and watch my concubine!"
The envoy from the audience also made a way from the middle in an instant, and after a while, a group of dancers wearing long skirts and good looks came in, and a veiled violinist, and the scene instantly turned into a scene of singing and dancing.
At this time, the envoys of various states couldn't help but be fascinated when they saw these Central Plains women with good figures, and some of the Ming officials on the same side asked about the names and origins of these singers.
Du Buyi entered Mingxi's room at this time, and was watching a group of palace maids dressing up Mingxi, Mingxi had already worn a phoenix crown on his head at this time, and he was also wearing a luxurious service on his body.
Just as Du Buyi looked at Mingxi and fell into a trance, the palace maid on the side said:
"Gonggong Li, what are you waiting for, why don't you hurry up and help the concubine to the Jinluan Palace, the emperor will be blamed if it is too late!"
It turned out that Du did not forget to become a eunuch named Gonggong Li.
Du did not forget to lower his voice and replied:
"Okay!"
At this time, the palace maid looked at Du and said:
"Grandpa Li, why did your voice change?"
Du did not forget to quickly reply:
"I had a chill last night, so my voice changed!"
The maid said:
"Okay, hurry up and help the concubine!"
Du Buyi walked over and helped Mingxi up, and then walked out of the room and outside.
I only heard Mingxi talk to himself at this time:
"Concubine...... Who is rare about this concubine, even if I die, I will not really marry the emperor!"
Du did not forget to ask in a low voice:
"Then who do you want to marry?"
Mingxi said casually:
"I only like Du Don't forget one person in my life, I only marry him!"
Suddenly feeling that he had said the wrong thing, Mingxi immediately asked Du not to forget:
"Gonggong Li, aren't you the eunuch who was castrated in the palace? Why are you asking me all this, aren't you afraid that the emperor will find out and kill you?"
Du did not forget and replied:
"Of course I'm afraid, so please don't tell anyone what happened just now, and don't talk nonsense in the main hall!"
Mingxi replied:
"Since I'm Princess Fusang, haven't seen any scenes?
Du did not forget to say:
"That's good!"
Then the two of them walked and walked the wrong way, they should have gone to the Taihe Palace, but they walked outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and several guards at the gate of the Qianqing Palace asked Du Yi:
"Father-in-law Li, are you supporting the concubine?"
Du did not forget to hurriedly reply:
"Exactly!"
The guard then said:
"Gonggong Li, you are on the wrong path, this is the Qianqing Palace, not the Taihe Hall where His Majesty and the envoys are located, you should hurry back!"
Du did not forget to look up and see that it was indeed the Qianqing Palace, he had been to the palace so many times, and he could still go the wrong way for a while, so he laughed to himself.
Then the other guard said:
"Gonggong Li must have seen that the concubine was so beautiful, so he forgot that God went the wrong way!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"What a disturbance!"
Then he hurriedly pulled Mingxi and turned around and went to the Taihe Palace.
At this time, the singing and dancing performance in the Jinluan Hall had ended, but Zhu Houxi's face was a little anxious, it was originally planned that the concubine would come to meet the envoys after the singing and dancing, but the singing and dancing ended for a while, and the concubine had not yet arrived.
Zhu Houxi was about to signal the eunuch on the side to see what was going on, when Du did not forget to help the concubine Mingxi walk from one side to the top of the main hall.
At this time, Mingxi was wearing a scarf, and when the envoys in the audience saw it, they whispered, and most of the envoys and officials were guessing how the president of the concubine would fall into the country and the city.
At this time, Zhu Houxi saw that Mingxi was finally here, so he took a long breath, and immediately helped Mingxi to sit on the side of his dragon chair, and then said to the envoys in the audience:
"This is my newly sealed Ming concubine of the Ming Dynasty!"
At this time, an envoy in the audience said:
"We have all witnessed the holy face today, why does the concubine still wear a veil?"
At this time, a eunuch on the side said to the envoys in the audience:
"We have a custom in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the newlywed woman's face must be seen by the groom at first sight, and the concubine is also considered to be newly married to the emperor today, so she will be covered with a scarf, if the envoys really want to see the concubine's face, tomorrow everyone can see the true face of the concubine!"
The envoys in the audience talked to each other:
"What kind of rule is this, it seems that our envoy to Daming this time will have to go home!"
Just now, the eunuch immediately walked down and explained to these envoys one by one, but he still couldn't stop the curiosity of these envoys.
Suddenly, Mingxi tore off the veil on his face and said to His Highness:
"Don't you just want to see what I look like? I'll show you now, are you satisfied?"
At this time, when the people in the audience saw Mingxi's peerless face, they were all fascinated, and even the minister on the side said to himself:
"Concubine Ming is really the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life!"
At this time, Mingxi put back on the face towel, and then said:
"Since you've seen enough, let's take part in this gift!"
Zhu Houxi looked at Mingxi at this time and said:
"My beloved concubine, you really have the demeanor of the mother of a country?"
