Mighty and Majestic Concubine Wan Gui

Chapter 129 The Eunuchs Gathered in Chengqian Palace

Wan Zhen'er was researching "Vegetarian Crabs" and "Sai Crabs", and the idiots in the imperial dining room sent people to please, saying that there are fresh big crabs in the kitchen now!

Before reporting it to Madam Wan, she was scolded back by two old mothers.

The lazy Wan Niangniang leaned on the dressing table, watching the maids holding out one gauze dress after another, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple, all kinds of colors, and different patterns.She rubbed her belly with one hand, looking at these clothes, she felt a little disgusted: "You think, is there still someone who can make the chest-length skirts of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Your Majesty is talking about Concubine Yang?"

"Hmm... the kind of dress that Empress Changsun wears!" Wan Zhen'er was a little unhappy, and glared at her. There were only three most famous women in the Tang Dynasty, one was Empress Changsun, one was Wu Zetian, and the other was Yang Concubine.The last two are unlucky!

"Your Majesty, as long as you want it, you must have it! Let them study and do it! It will definitely be done."

Wan Zhen'er nodded in satisfaction: "Very good."

"Your Majesty, many senior eunuchs are visiting, the admiral eunuch of the twelfth eunuch, the palm seal eunuch, and several stewards are waiting at the door."

Wan Zhen'er's hand that stuffed candy into her mouth stopped: "Oh? Please come in."

It's strange, it's not unusual for them to come to me, they often come to me, gossip, or send things, what's strange is how they come together!Waiting at the door early in the morning?

"I just wear this white crane pattern."

The jacket made of plain silk interlaced with silver silk is embroidered with a hundred little flying cranes all over the body, and the little red dot on the top of the crane's head is very cute.The silver thread is like moonlight, shining slightly, and Wan Niangniang is really white. Wearing this dress, I feel that her skin is more than snow, and she blends with the crane. These cranes are black and white, and they are more and more airy.The lower body is a pair of stone blue trousers with loose legs. It stands to reason that you have to wear a skirt to be considered a homely dress, but...it doesn't matter!

More than 20 eunuchs who were fortunate enough to be given flying fish suits and tuanhua brocade robes rushed in together, and the followers of Xiaohuo had to stay at the door with gifts, and it was really impossible to squeeze in.

Wan Zhen'er sat on the throne, looking at the eunuchs who were full of rich clothes, she thought to herself that this is probably the feeling of the emperor going to court, it's really interesting.Hey, why are you so serious and nervous?

The eunuchs hurriedly bowed to each other and saluted: "My lady, good luck and golden safety."

Wan Zhen'er pretended to stand up and humbly say: "My father-in-law, please sit down quickly and serve tea." She looked around and saw that there were not enough stools in the room, so she quickly ordered her servants: "Hurry up and bring the stools here."

"Thank you madam."

"Your Majesty, your complexion is getting better and better. You can tell from your complexion that both you and the little prince are very healthy."

"Hey, Amitabha, my lady, if you sit here, you really have the bearing of a mother."

"Oh, ma'am, I haven't seen you for a few days, you look more and more beautiful!"

"It's really eye-catching, eyebrows like distant mountains."

"Ma'am, to be honest, when I went to the White Horse Temple to offer incense, the great monk knew fortune-telling and fortune-telling, so I asked him what the fate of a girl's male appearance is, and he said it was the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

Every great eunuch has two characteristics, one is that he is especially good at talking, and the other is that he is very good at doing things.One can imagine the difficulties involved in promoting them step by step from the lowest level of low-flame practitioners in order to be delighted by masters.In the professional field of eunuchs—civil servants in the palace, there is no family background to speak of, and there are few power-sex transactions or unspoken rules.

Each of them prepared a large set of words to praise the empress for her beauty, dignity, magnanimity, longevity, blessings, and fairy reincarnation to praise her and make her happy.

Wan Zhen'er blushed when she heard that, she was a little embarrassed, but she was very happy in her heart: "Stop praising me, tell you to talk a little longer, and I will be one of the four beauties."

"Kick that fat Concubine Yang out, you are a well-deserved beauty, my lord."

"Your Majesty is skilled at bowing horses, and is also good at giving birth to children!"

"Sister Wan, you are Wen Neng who puts pen to paper to secure the world, Wu Neng who mounts a horse to determine the world, and you have an heir within two months of being favored. Who in the world can compare with you!"

"I heard that the fetus in your womb has the appearance of the Holy Lord!"

They flattered again.

Wan Zhen'er said happily, now I know how some fools became fools!sounds so good!so happy! "Thank you, thank you, brothers."

Just then, her breakfast arrived.

Wan Zhen'er: "Have you eaten? Have some together?"

They were polite again: "I have eaten."

"Your Majesty, please have a meal, we will serve you by the side."

So Wan Zhen'er, under the service of more than 20 eunuchs, ate eight steamed buns, three bowls of porridge, six pies, and several dishes in the small bowl of Sumali Qing Sanyang Kaitai from Yongle Dynasty. Side dishes, and all the minced meat covered in salted egg yolk.

The buns are only the size of a jade pendant. If you are reserved, you can take two bites. If you open your mouth wide, you can take one bite without choking. It is exquisite and small, and every fold is equally divided. The filling contains the aroma of gravy, leeks and seasonings.

A very delicate pie, about the size of a jujube cake, with a thin and crispy crust, and a thin layer of filling that tastes like a steamed stuffed bun.

The most praiseworthy is the fried meat with salted egg yolk. The chefs have introduced the practice of crabs. In addition to the chicken cut into the shape of crab legs and the broth made of fish soup, some fish are also added.Very tasty!Very delicious!

After eating, start to rest.Yes, tired after eating.

These polite and almost flattering eunuchs finally pushed Cheng En, who has the closest relationship with her, and stammered out the purpose of coming here: "I heard, uh, I heard that the emperor wants Will we eunuchs no longer be used in the future? Sister Wan..." looked at her pitifully.

"If this is the case, there will be a lot of inconvenience inside and outside the palace."

"This has been the case for thousands of years. The emperor should not take the world's disgrace lightly." Protect traditional culture!Cultural heritage cannot be lost!

"Your majesty is young and energetic, and you can do whatever you want, but your majesty listens to you the most. I beg Madam Wan to say something nice to the villain, don't drive the villain out of the palace, and the villain will repay the empress utterly in the future!"

The others chattered, all showing the eyes of a puppy who is about to be abandoned. Don't look at the signboard of the steward who is showing off his might, this is also the master, and the other is also the master. He raised his head in front of the civil and military officials. With his waist down, when he said "our family" and "our family", it seemed so majestic.But to put it bluntly, this is a dog fighting for power, and a slave fighting for power. If the young emperor had a seizure and dismissed all the eunuchs and sent them out of the palace, they would have nothing.

Those who hold on to their beauty are afraid of losing their beauty, those who hold on to their wealth are afraid of losing their wealth, and those who hold on to their power are afraid of losing their power.

Wan Zhen'er laughed and said: "Nothing! The emperor wants the palace to gradually stop asking officials from all over the country for small fires. After another hundred or eighty years, if no one wants to enter the palace as a eunuch, they will cancel it naturally. This is an inhumane thing."

"Amitabha!"*6

"God bless!"

"Thank goodness!" *5

"Blessings of Boundless Heaven!"*6

"This is great!" *3

Fortunately, these voices are chaotic. If they chant Buddha or Tianzun's name neatly, there will be a strange feeling.

Someone actually wept with joy, took out a small handkerchief to wipe away his tears, took out a rosewood box inlaid with mother-of-pearl, opened the lid, and touched up his makeup.

Wan Zhen'er knew that this group of eunuchs were capable. Although it was not as easy as in the Tang Dynasty to abolish the emperor, it was not difficult for them to launch a coup d'état or something.The emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, and his foothold is not stable. If they make trouble in the palace, it will be troublesome.

Thinking of this, she cupped her stomach and tried to sit up straight, and said to them with all her heart: "The emperor told me, uh, let me think about it, why can't I remember it just on the edge of my mouth?"

Because it hasn't been compiled yet, motherfucker!

She was very quick-witted, and quickly remembered: "Yu Qian once wrote in the memorial to the Taifu that there are many refugees in the Central Plains. After defeating them, the local officials will kill the adult bandits, and the young children will be castrated and sent to the palace... Well, I heard that some local officials also sent orphans and street beggars to the palace , this is really not a benevolent government.”

This group of very respectable eunuchs seemed to recall vaguely sad things, their eyes were red, and some cried.

Mai Mai had good eyesight, took a stack of handkerchiefs, handed out one to each of them, and said in a low voice, "Wipe your sweat, gentlemen."

Wan Zhen'er took a sip of water, and continued: "The emperor has a plan in mind, he intends to gradually reduce the problem of people being displaced, so that the people all over the world can live and work in peace and contentment. He Qing, when there are no beggars and vagrants and robbers in the world, it will be like this~"

The eunuchs were all stunned, and couldn't help being fascinated leisurely.After a while, Cheng En scratched his head: "Well, isn't this the same! We still plan to abolish the eunuchs. Sister Wan, Niangniang Wan, please be merciful and give us an accurate sentence. Why does the emperor look at us poor people? Useless people are not pleasing to the eye."

"Yeah, what shall we do then?"

"Are there only maids in the harem?"

Wan Zhen'er smiled and said: "Sit down, sit down, don't worry. Come and fan me, it's too hot."

In summer, the house is full of people, one can imagine how hot it is!

She took a sip of water, got up again for convenience, walked back slowly and continued talking: "It's embarrassing to say."

"Speak quickly."

"We serve the master personally, what else is there to be embarrassed about?"

"The emperor is distressed that you can't enjoy family happiness, you can have high-ranking officials and rich salary but no descendants, and, um, you can't do such happy things." Wan Zhen'er secretly wiped her cold sweat, and Bengong also fought hard: "You should No matter what, you are all the emperor's cronies, how can you be replaced. The emperor plans to recruit innocent boys from good families near the capital into the palace in the future, just like the servants of the big families outside the palace. The emperor said, then How big a family is with servants and servants, and they are not afraid of fire in the backyard. Why would the royal family want to mutilate people's bodies? This is really inhumane and detrimental to the fate of the country. In the future, you should accept godsons as usual, and you can adopt children if you want. In the future Pass down the surname and live up to the flesh and blood of your parents."

All the eunuchs were dumbfounded.

Wan Zhen'er said again: "You eat fast and chant Buddha all day long, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, rebuild temples and reshape golden bodies for gods and Buddhas, and come back after reincarnation in the future. Good. I'm afraid this matter will be too difficult and bumpy, so it may not be possible."

"Such as Cao Teng's old example?" Cao Teng, a famous eunuch, Cao Cao's father's original surname was Xiahou, and was adopted by Cao Teng, so he changed his surname to Cao.Later, Cao Teng was posthumously named emperor.

The other eunuchs glared at him, what he said was unlucky!

Wan Zhen'er smiled and nodded: "How do you know about this?"
