Chapter 168: Sit and watch the play

"Speaking lightly." Concubine Shu frowned: "Is there anything in this world that the emperor can't do, but what can we do?"
Tang Shi smiled, lowered his voice and said, "The emperor can't do everything. As long as you are willing to observe, you can always find something."
It seems to make sense? Concubine Shu silently noted in her heart, and then when it was her turn to wait on the imperial front, she pinched her shoulders for the emperor and said, "It seems that the emperor has been upset recently?"
"Yeah." The emperor looked down and said lightly: "It's almost time for the draft again."
After a meal, Xu's lips pressed. This harem draft meant that another group of newcomers came in. The old man in front hadn't been spoiled enough, and there were many concubines who hadn't even seen the emperor's face, so they had to be crushed by Xinmi like Chen Mi.
After thinking about it, she whispered: "There are a lot of people in the harem, so I won't choose less now..."
"Fewer elections means more." The emperor said lightly.
Concubine Shu paused, thinking about it, it seemed to be the same. Even if only one show girl was selected, there would still be more and more people in the harem.
"That..." After hesitating for a while, she said: "There are many people in the palace who have no position and have not served in bed. How about the emperor's decree and let them all go home?"
The eyes lit up, and the emperor nodded: "This is not bad, but the list of harems is quite troublesome."
"The emperor can rest assured, there are still concubines." Concubine Shu smiled, and instantly found what she could do for the emperor, and accepted it in one fell swoop: "The concubines will sort out the list. A group of people were sent out of the palace so they could clean up some palaces."
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Looking at her, the emperor's eyes softened.
Xu's family was greatly inspired and happily went back to the palace to work.
Hall of Nourishment.
Hua Chun turned over and said cheerfully: "Look, don't some fools still do it?"
Qing Yu pursed her lips, and said in a puzzled way: "It is a good thing that Concubine Shu is willing to do, but the servant doesn't understand, why did Tang Cairen mix with Concubine Shu?"
Anyhow, the people who attacked Yuhou didn't even come to the Hall of Cultivation to ask for peace or something?
"I don't know about this either." Huachun said, "Perhaps there is no sense of security in the palace, so looking at Concubine Shu's thigh is more comfortable."
Qing Niao was silent, just think about it, even if the harem is decentralized, Concubine Shu is still a concubine with great power, always a head higher than the noble concubine Wu.
"Niang Niang." Just thinking about it, Rui'er outside came and said: "Xu Guibi and the others are here and they say they want to please peace."
Huachun raised her eyebrows, and according to the emperor's previous instructions, shook her head and said: "If you don't see it, I say that this palace is still annoying about Tang Cairen."
"Yes." Rui'er nodded and conveyed Huachun's attitude to the ladies outside the door.
"Are you still angry?" Xu Guibi smiled and sighed: "They are all from the Yuhou Mansion. My concubine still wants to persuade him. Why is it too anxious?"
Rail bent her knees: "My lord, forgive me."
"Hey, that's fine, please give Concubine De concubine a good rest." Xu Guibing waved his hand, leading everyone to turn and walk back.
"I knew it would be the result." Duan Cairen whispered: "Although Concubine De is high in rank, but grace is weak, she can be robbed of the emperor by a talented person. What else can she expect?"
Xu Guibing shook his head: "It was my palace who looked at her high, thinking that it was Gong Yuhou's sister, and the person whom Gong Yuhou sent may still listen to her. Who ever thought... Let's rely on our own. ."
"Yes." The people around nodded.
I used to see how beautiful she was when she was a flower girl, and she dared to tear Concubine Hui off the horse, but now she became a concubine, but it was useless. Gong Yuhou sent people in, probably because he wanted to help her. Who would have thought that Tang was a thoughtful person, and even grabbed the favor of his master.
At first, Xu Guibi was still worried about Huachun one or two, and always felt that she still had a chance to stand up, but now it seems that there is no need to think about her anymore. She wants to give birth to ashes in the corner by herself, so let her go. .
Concubine Shu compiled a roster of all the people in the harem who hadn't served in bed, including many who had just been appointed. After counting, the number was as high as over 1,000. She immediately scared her into a cold sweat, and then ran away immediately. Find the emperor.
"This number is too big, and it's no wonder that the harem expenses are still not small." She said: "The emperor is pleased to let them out of the palace."
The emperor glanced at her and asked, "Are you sure these people all left the palace voluntarily?"
Volunteer? Concubine Shu pursed her lips, and there must be a small number of people willing to leave, but if you really want to follow their wishes, what should you do? After all, many people like to eat free food in the palace.
For convenience and to reduce the workload of herself, she nodded: "It's all voluntary."
"That's good." The emperor said: "I asked Qin Gonggong to make an decree, and gave them five days to go out of the palace, and cleaned the harem by the way."
"Yes." Concubine Shu smiled, feeling inexplicably excited about the end-of-year cleaning, she immediately formulated the decree, and then proceeded to deliver the decree.
The harem immediately caused an uproar, and many talented people who had just been awarded are on the list of being expelled from the palace. Why is this so willing? So they looked for places to appeal.
The queen mother is recuperating, and no one dares to bother. Concubine De concubine also stays behind closed doors all the year round. Recently, she has stayed quietly, so no one dared to come to her house. Only Wu Gui's concubine has power and can see the emperor’s face. , And Concubine Shu was opposed, so Wanfu Hall was squeezed by a group of court concubines, agitated, and even smashed many things in the palace.
This is nothing short of a disaster! Wu Gui's concubine had a terrible headache. How could she have said anything about the emperor's decision? But when the palace was closed to the guests, the group of people was blocked outside like crazy, and the guards were not easy to drive away. As a result, the emperor heard the wind and stopped coming to her.
"My palace suddenly envied the concubine De concubine." Wu Guiren said melancholy: "If you keep closed your door, there won't be so many moths."
"Niang." Xu Guibi said: "Now is not the time to escape. Whoever causes trouble should be dealt with. Why don't you use the power of these people to take a copy of Concubine Shu?"
His eyes were shining, and Wu Guibing patted the armrest lightly: "Yes, please come in!"
"Yes."
A struggle in the harem began. Wu Guibi privately instructed the people in position to use the family relationship, and jointly filed a petition suing Concubine Shu for personal gain, regardless of the palace concubine's wishes.
Concubine Shu moved after hearing the wind, using some people to stay as a bait to break their alliance. The two sides do not give in to each other, you come and I go, and the battle is fierce.
Huachun and the emperor sat side by side on the soft couch in the Hall of Yangxin, taking tonics and watching the show.
"Which side does the emperor think will win?"
"Shu Fei."
"why?"
"Because I also want that group of people to leave."
The emperor's wishes determine the success or failure of this group of people, Huachun nodded, but seeing Yu Wenjie's non-interventional attitude shows that although Ah's wants the group to leave, she doesn't want Concubine Shu to live too well.
"Thanks to the emperor for reminding me in advance, so that the concubines have a peaceful life." After drinking the last sip of pigeon soup, Hua Chun sighed.
Yu Wenjie glanced at her and said, "Thank you, you don't need to thank you, but you can explain to me, why do you drink tonic soup, and I want to drink it?"
Huachun smiled: "It's good for your body anyway, it's good and harmless to drink."
"But it's bitter."
Nonsense, if it's not bitter, why let him drink it? Muttering in her heart, Huachun's face was full of gentleness: "This is what we call sharing joys and sorrows, come on, deep feelings, boring!"
emperor:"……"
Recognizing his fate, he picked up the bowl and poured the soup into his mouth, Yu Wenjie turned his head and looked at her: "Have you become bored again recently?"
"Yes." Huachun pouted and said aggrievedly: "You don't even show me the papers. The Hall of Yangxin is nothing to play with in such a big place, it's boring."
Yu Wenjie was silent, and squeezed the palm of her hand.
Hua Chun was taken aback, her heart softened unexpectedly, and she looked at him and said: "But don't worry, I will stay honestly and will not run around."
"Yeah." Yu Wenjie replied, and touched her slightly raised belly.
Feeling the warmth of her and the child in the palm of his hand, the emperor's entire heart melted, and his eyes were rare gentleness, just like the stars in the sky are flowing into the lake, glowing.
It would be nice if there were only three of them in the world.
Unfortunately, reality is reality, and he still has a lot to do to protect their mother and child. Wind and waves are inevitable, and other people are unavoidable to get in.
He Changan hadn't entered the palace for two days. The emperor handled the affairs of the Central Government alone, repeatedly turning over Tang Cairen's brand, and felt that at least the one who attacked Yuhou made him more at ease than others.
However, Tang Shi didn't realize that she was exposed to He Changan's light. A few days after entering the palace, she recovered and realized that she was abandoned by He Changan.
To this end, she cried fiercely with the close-fitting maid beside her.
"I like him so much, but he sent me here." She burst into tears, and the palace man next to her cried red eyes, comforting her: "Master, don't be too sad, at least you are favored now."
To be pampered is to be pampered, and what should be sad is to be sad. How is Gong Yuhou's behavior different from selling her? He owes her an apology!
"Is there anyone in this palace who is Gong Yuhou's sister?" Tang asked, wiping his eyes.
The palace man nodded: "The Concubine De is Gong Yuhou's younger sister, but the master doesn't see guests very much. If you want to ask for peace, you can give it a try."
Still a concubine? Tang raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Give me the post. It's okay to ask an Ann."
"Yes."
So Huachun received Tang's greeting card, with respectful handwriting and respectful words, which made people feel good when looking at it.
"I don't want to see anything else, Tang's still see you." Huachun said: "After all, I have invited me to eat soup dumplings."
Green nodded and went out to pass a message for her.
