Bright Spring

Zhu Gaoxu nodded immediately.

After he responded with actions, he thought about the reason.At first, he was sympathetic and felt that her appearance and face were good, but later he was mixed with grievances and resentment, and somehow began to miss her.And that time when Ma Enhui wanted to commit suicide in despair, Zhu Gaoxu accidentally tore her clothes when saving her. Although the atmosphere was not right at that moment, he was immediately attracted by her body.Thinking about it until now, his heart is also impetuous.

After hearing this, Ma Enhui stood silently, and after an unknown amount of time, she said again, "I've been standing here for a long time, and the wind is still a bit cold."

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his arms and hugged her gently, letting her soft chest lean against him.His nose also smelled the fragrance of some kind of plant spices in her hair.

Ma Enhui didn't resist, and put her head on Zhu Gaoxu's shoulder after a while, "I feel very guilty now."

"We are all guilty." Zhu Gaoxu said, "Someone said a word before, life is a crime (Chen Xianzhen). I also think that no one is completely holy, including those noble Confucianists and good generals who are once successful and ten thousand bones. With people's fat and people's ointment."

She murmured, "The concubine is not as big-hearted as Shengshang, but even in a small area, the concubine has betrayed almost everyone."

Zhu Gaoxu said kindly, "The situation is forcing you, you are just following the trend."

Ma Enhui shook her head, and Zhu Gaoxu felt the silk on her shoulders become warm|warm, as if she had just been wet with tears.

She broke free from Zhu Gaoxu's arms suddenly, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, my lord, for letting me have a place to live. My lord, let me go back, and don't worry about my concubine too much."

Chapter 779 The Unruly Beauty

Zhu Gaoxu entered the inner city from Yanque Lake, and then returned to the palace.At this time, the afternoon sun was still very bright.

Nothing happened today, Zhu Gaoxu chose a date to go out of the palace; he could have returned to the palace later, as long as the inner city was closed.But he was kicked out by Ma Enhui.

Usually, almost all women treat Zhu Gaoxu with a submissive and flattering attitude; after getting used to this, he suddenly encountered such a thing today, which is very unexpected and uncomfortable.

But he didn't do anything, he didn't even force Ma Enhui at all, so he went back to the palace.Compared with the kindness and affection between the two of them, this matter certainly wouldn't make Zhu Gaoxu angry, he was just a little confused.

It was still early, so Zhu Gaoxu spent an afternoon in Dongnuange, reviewing memorials and doing some serious business there.

He didn't pay much attention to most government affairs, so he approved them easily, and couldn't help thinking about Ma Enhui for a while.There was only one memorabilia written by a junior official of the Imperial Academy, which caught Zhu Gaoxu's attention slightly.

The content of the memorial book is to persuade the crown prince to be established. The reason is that the eldest prince Zhan He should leave the court to study at around seven years old; only when the country is confirmed can the imperial court build the East Palace, choose good officials and scholars for the eldest prince, teach the scriptures and cultivate virtues.

Zhu Gaoxu thought for a long time, and decided not to approve the memorial, and sent it directly to the cabinet, and then waited for the people in the sixth department gallery to transcribe and publish it.

In this way, more important ministers will come out to persuade the crown prince one after another, and things can continue to develop.

Zhu Gaoxu liked Zhanhe very much. When Zhanhe was born, he was busy with various wars in Yunnan. The experience of suffering made Zhu Gaoxu's feelings for his eldest son even more special.The key point is that Zhanhe is the eldest son, Zhu Gaoxu really doesn't want to make trouble, and there is no reason not to choose Zhanhe.Like the emperor father back then, he didn't like Gao Chi so much, and in the end the emperor's will also compromised. After all, the matter of abolishing the elders and establishing the younger ones is very complicated.

Zhu Gaoxu left Dongnuan Pavilion before Youshi.

When he walked to the inclined corridor, the eunuch told him that the imperial concubine should be in bed tonight.Zhu Gaoxu didn't summon Miao Jin either, and went straight to the Imperial Concubine's Palace on the west side of Kunning Palace by sedan chair.

Wearing ordinary clothes and a phoenix crown, Miao Jin led the crowd to greet her at the main entrance of the palace.After seeing the ceremony, a group of people walked inside, and Miao Jin said again, "The concubine heard that the Holy Majesty hadn't had dinner, so she asked someone to prepare the wine and food. Your Majesty, please move to the dining room."

"Okay." Zhu Gaoxu nodded, and then couldn't help but look back at Miao Jin who was standing behind him, feeling that something was wrong with her today.This situation made Zhu Gaoxu feel in a trance that he was still at the imperial gate, and he was doing business in an orderly manner.

The two came to the dining room and sat down at a round table.Immediately, the ladies of the court began to serve the dinner, carrying water to wash their hands and face, and the eunuchs of the Shangshan Supervisor also came to the small room outside to try the food.

Zhu Gaoxu chatted casually and talked about the equipment for storing ice.Miao Jin also responded politely.

After a while, four dishes, one soup and a small jug of wine were served.At this time Zhu Gaoxu said, "Let everyone go down, the eunuchs outside the front door, and the female officials playing the piano have all withdrawn."

"Yes." The maids standing around bowed their knees and saluted.

Zhu Gaoxu looked down at himself, then reached out to touch his forehead.Seeing this, Miao Jin asked, "What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

"Did I do something wrong and made you angry?" Zhu Gaoxu frowned.

Miao Jin's face turned red immediately, and she almost didn't laugh, but she stabilized her expression in an instant, "There is nothing wrong. What does the Holy One do, where is it the turn of the concubine to say it?"

Zhu Gaoxu picked up a piece of white duck meat and dipped it in the dipping plate, thinking about it while eating.

The two ate in silence for a while, Miao Jin said, "Don't think about it, my lord, it's really nothing."

"I don't believe it." Zhu Gaoxu said.He wondered, could it be that Miao Jin knew about going out of the palace today to see Ma Enhui?If Zhu Gaoxu came to get close to Miaojin just after looking for other women, she would care about such things.But Zhu Gaoxu really didn't do anything today.

It was inconvenient for him to explain, so he could only hold his breath and wait for Miaojin's answer.Otherwise, if you guess wrong, you will be asking for new troubles.

It's strange to think about it, Zhu Gaoxu is not afraid that the queen will know his whereabouts today, but he is not very calm in front of the imperial concubine.

Miao Jin glanced at Zhu Gaoxu from time to time, she finally sighed, and said, "The Holy Majesty wants to give it to Concubine Xian, so I have nothing to say. But why didn't the Majesty tell me first?"

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly said, "It's mainly for Yao Ji's elder brother Yao Fang, so that the book has a source."

"Oh..." Miao Jin nodded.

Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a while, then put down his chopsticks and said nicely, "It's a secret between us. I know it's a mistake. It's really because of negligence. The matter has come to this, Miaojin, don't be angry anymore, I think of other ways to make up for you."

Miao Jin was stunned for a moment, the well-dressed makeup did not hide her expression.That glamorous face was a little moved and a little surprised, and at a certain moment, it seemed that she was about to burst into laughter, making Zhu Gaoxu look forward to her laughing and cursing.However, after her various subtle emotions calmed down a little, she sighed faintly.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?"

Miao Jin said, "How can the emperor talk like that? There is really nothing I can do about you."

Zhu Gaoxu said, "They are all gone, there are no outsiders."

After hearing this, Miao Jin sighed again, put down her chopsticks, glanced at him and said, "Eat it, it will be cold later."

Zhu Gaoxu said, "You eat too."

"I'm full." Miao Jin still looked at Zhu Gaoxu with her charming almond eyes, as if she was a little lost in thought.After a while she put her arms on the table, propped her chin up and continued to tap him.

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head slightly, and continued to eat and drink, he was really hungry by this hour.

After dinner, Zhu Gaoxu called the palace servants to come in.Everyone collected the cups, plates and chopsticks, and waited for them to rinse their mouths and serve tea.Zhu Gaoxu and Miao Jin continued to sit in the dining room, he picked up the teacup, and waved for the servants to leave.

Miao Jin picked up the teacup and took a sip. She applied makeup tonight, leaving a faint red mark on the blue and white porcelain cup.Seeing Zhu Gaoxu looking at the teacup again, she silently took out a piece of silk and wiped it lightly on the rim of the cup.

"Gao Xu doesn't need to think too much, I think it's my business." Miao Jin said softly.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and continued to drink tea without opening his mouth.

Miao Jin looked at the sunset outside the window, and murmured, "Thinking about it, Gao Xu treated me very well. He completely disregarded morals and etiquette, and insisted on making me a noble concubine and giving me a title. We have known each other for so many years, and you have become the emperor, but you are still the emperor. Leave it to me." She looked at Zhu Gaoxu with a self-deprecating smile, and the charming, slender eyes with bright almond eyes, even a smile is quite charming, "It's a person like me who is not satisfied."

After Zhu Gaoxu listened carefully, he said, "Since I became a vassal king, I have had several wives and concubines. Guo Wei is very concerned about her status as the main wife, the title of queen, and at the same time the honor she brings to the Guo family. Du Qianrui got rid of Difficult hometown situation, but also got a stable home.

Yao Ji hopes to be favored, a position that will not be wronged, a life of pampering, and other things; she is not happy that I give the favor to others, but she can still recognize the reality.In short, after so many years, they have roughly balanced. "

Miao Jin looked at Zhu Gaoxu with a half-smile, and listened quietly.

Zhu Gaoxu continued, "It's not that Miao Jin is dissatisfied. You don't want power, status and wealth. Maybe you haven't found inner peace, or maybe I can't give you what you want."

Miao Jin frowned and said, "Before meeting Gao Xu, you had a concubine at the beginning, and then you followed your father and mother to arrange a big marriage and get married. I don't care that you have a group of wives and concubines, let alone now that you are the emperor... I just care , but there is no way, forget it. It’s just that there are some things, and I still can’t help but feel uncomfortable!”
