I heard my brother is a tyrant

Chapter 20 The Lustful Emperor

It was quite quiet when he came, but when Xie Dan came out from the Empress Dowager's Compassionate Palace, he encountered palace people one after another.The holy driver's guard of honor travels, and there are servants clearing the way in front of him, but under the palace wall and among the flowers, people are always seen by coincidence.

Back in the Zichen Palace, Xie Dan asked Chen Lianjiang to inform the Liushang Bureau first, and convinced the "female officials" in the harem and their families that the emperor was dissatisfied with these people. As for the place, those who want to go out of the palace can apply for a booklet.

In fact, these beauties were able to be stuffed in to fill the harem at the beginning, and how many of these beauties were really distressed by the family.But at the beginning, after all, what was presented was "beauty", each one was carefully cultivated by the family, beautiful and talented, the emperor didn't want it, but the family was often reluctant to just throw it in the deep palace and waste a beautiful daughter.

Of course, if there are those who refuse to accept their fate and refuse to leave, and still want to stay in the palace and wait for the opportunity, then that's up to you.Anyway, Xie Dan has a sheep-herding policy, he likes to leave but can't, and is too lazy to take care of it.

When Chen Lianjiang came back from seeing the people from the Liushang Bureau, he saw that Xie Dan was free, so he reported another matter. This beginning of autumn, the autumn and winter clothes in the palace should also be prepared.

"Everything else is easy to handle. There are regulations on how to distribute the cloth and fabrics sent from various places. That is, the Jiangnan side sent three bolts of woven golden makeup flowers. The new materials are few, and there are only three bolts in total. The palace is also in a dilemma, Your Majesty, look..."

"What about the usual practice?" Xie Dan asked.

Chen Lianjiang said that tributes that are usually relatively rare can only be rewarded by His Majesty.

In the past, Xie Dan didn't ask about such trifles, and the Shang Palace Bureau went to invite the Empress Dowager. Isn't it different this time, Chen Lianjiang just kept an eye on it.

The material of weaving gold makeup flowers is not uncommon, and most of them are thick brocades, but this thing is light and soft, and weaving gold makeup flowers is a bit fresh.

Chen Lianjiang said: "The slave girl looks at it, it's really a good thing, tsk tsk, it's luxurious and bright, it's so beautiful, it's the color of my little daughter's house."

Xie Dan understood this time.It’s not food, drink or anything else, Chen Lianjiang just kept it for the emperor’s use. Things like these fabrics and clothes, chai ring powder and the like are for women, and the emperor can’t use them. In case someone in the harem thinks about it If so, Chen Lianjiang couldn't say it to the emperor.

Xie Dan said: "Keep it, if the Empress Dowager asks, she will say that I keep it."

"Hey, that's fine, I'll ask someone to deliver it to the girl." Chen Lianjiang retreated happily.

When it was cold in the afternoon, three bolts of woven golden makeup flowers were sent to Ye Zhai together with dozens of other cloths.The sender handed it over to Chang Shun, and Chang Shun handed it over to Chunliu, the big maid in charge of clothes and cloth.

Chunliu led the people to move into the small warehouse next to the ear, and seeing the room full of boxes couldn't help but feel a little headache, so he decided to go back and find some special warehouses for Chang Shunteng.

The two highest-ranking officials in the palace reached an agreement, and the imperial decree of Caixuan was quickly promulgated, causing a storm in the court and the opposition.

In Zhongwangfu, Guo Zijin was faced with a choice, whether to run for election.

As the only daughter of Prince Zhong's mansion, she can be said to be one of the noble daughters in the capital. Since King Zhong came to Beijing with the new king because of his meritorious service, the beauty and talent of the county magistrate of Jiayi has been unparalleled under the promotion of caring people, and she has even been favored by others. Known as the No. [-] noble lady in the capital.

In addition, the image of King Zhong's deep love for Mrs. Guo and his vow not to marry was praised, and it was compiled into dramas and story books and sung in Kyoto. Even Guo Zijin's name became evidence of the deep love between King Zhong and his wife. Take my heart away." Who in the capital doesn't know Jiayi's county lord.

Therefore, considering the status of King Zhong's Mansion and Jiayi County Lord, as long as King Zhong sends her to run for election, it can be said that in eight out of ten, the Empress Dowager will let her enter the palace.It goes without saying that Guo Zijin is beautiful and talented. The concubines of the emperor never only look at their beauty.

The imperial decree of the Empress Dowager is for the families of officials of the fifth rank or above, regardless of the concubines, between the ages of thirteen and seventeen, each family can send a daughter to participate in the election.Guo Zijin just passed her 13th birthday and is the only daughter in the family. According to the rules, she must run for election.

However, for this kind of thing, the more powerful and noble the more leeway, if you don't want to enter the palace, just make excuses for your tolerance, excuse your illness or find an excuse.

Yizhi has come down, but the selection is far from fast. The Ministry of Rituals and the Ministry of Household Affairs have to make preparations, and the local officials of the fifth rank and above also need to send their daughters to Beijing. After a few months, the autumn harvest will be over before the palace election can be arranged.

Therefore, Guo Zijin was not in such a hurry to make a decision. In fact, this is not something she can decide. She has to wait for King Zhong to make the decision.

Guo Zijin deeply understands her father and brother's plan for her, and it is one thing whether to run for election or not. The goal of her father and brother has always been the queen.

Whether to participate in the election or not just means when and how she will enter the palace.

It depends on whether the emperor chooses a concubine or a queen this time.

Establishing an empress is a major matter for the country, and the usual practice is not to directly establish an empress. Even if the empress is selected to enter the palace, she must be concubine first, brewing for a few years, until she has a foundation or gives birth to an heir.

Guo Zijin was taken back to the mansion to reunite with his father when he was six years old. At that time, Guo Yu was still the Marquis of Dingbei.Guo Zijin remembers the first time he saw Father Hou. He was tall and burly, with a weathered face, and the murderous aura brought out from the sea of ​​blood and corpses. The six-year-old Guo Zijin cried on the spot.

Six-year-old Guo Zijin returned to the Hou Mansion, and only gradually heard about his life experience.Guo Yu fought all the year round, and he stayed with his wife less often.No one seems to be able to explain the specific reasons back then. After all, many years have passed. It is said that Guo Yu was at the border when Guo Zijin was born. Wai Ruyi Xiaozhuang, and gave birth to Guo Zijin in Zhuangzi.

After that, Mrs. Guo suddenly left the capital with her daughter for unknown reasons, and left Ruyi Xiaozhuang.

After Guo Yu returned to Beijing, he spent a lot of time searching for a year or two before finding Guo Zijin back.

Because of this, Guo Yu always felt that his daughter lost her mother when she was young and suffered a lot in exile, so she tried her best to make up for her.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, Guo Yu brought Guo Zijin back to the capital. With the status of the only daughter of the King Zhong and the prominent status of the Prince Zhong's mansion, King Zhong Yijie is also a well-known favored daughter. Don't let her get three points.

In Ye's house, Mrs. He also heard about the emperor's draft, and couldn't help feeling all sorts of thoughts in her heart.The emperor is about to draft, but the emperor never mentioned it to the girl.

It seemed that the emperor had no intention of letting the girl into the palace at all.

In all fairness, Mrs. He didn't really think it was a good idea to enter the palace.How could the harem be such a good place to stay, a place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones, with Ye Chu's disposition of being aloof from the world, there might be no bones left.

If this is the case, the girl should really make a plan early, and take advantage of His Majesty's influence to pick a good husband-in-law who is a son of an aristocratic family and an upstart in the court, which is no worse than entering the palace as a concubine.

He didn't dare to let others know what he was thinking, so he went back to tell Ye Fu secretly at night.Ye Fu complained to her: "This is something you can worry about? Besides, Your Majesty is young and dignified, with a dragon and a phoenix, and is No. 1 in the world. What's wrong with a girl following His Majesty."

Mrs. He said: "A girl with such a weak, pure and good nature can be put in the harem? She has no family background to back her up. The king is very kind, but men are unlucky. Well, it’s not that the concubine Chu Guifei made the husband and wife divorced. But if His Majesty officially recognizes the girl as a righteous sister, even if it’s just a verbal recognition, pointing her to a good-looking and good-looking Chaozhong Xungui to marry, there is Your Majesty is here, so the husband-in-law and in-laws don't dare to bully her."

Xie Dan and Ye Chu are not blood siblings, everyone in the house knows this.Ye Chu's origin is unknown, when Xie Dan placed her in Luzhou, he only said that she was his younger sister raised by himself, and never mentioned her background.

Ye Fu said: "Don't think about it so much. The girl is only 13 years old this year. Even if His Majesty wants her to enter the palace, she doesn't have to go in this draft. Isn't Your Majesty not good enough for the girl? According to what you said, the two usually It is very intimate here, His Majesty dotes on the girl in every possible way, and will definitely plan for the girl."

He said: "What do you know? This is the first selection of His Majesty after he ascended the throne, and she is a noble girl above the fifth rank. Can it be the same? If Your Majesty enters the palace just because the girl is young, let the girl stay in the palace." It's just a year. Hiding people in the house like this, going back and forth every day, is it possible to keep them as an outer room?"

The Ye Fu she was talking about also understood that if it was just because of his status, His Majesty is the emperor, let alone a family of five ranks, what kind of status would he want to give the girl?Your Majesty really does not intend to let the girl enter the palace.

Ye Fu argued: "You don't have to think about the matter of the master. Look, everyone in this house doesn't know that the girl is His Majesty's heart and soul. No matter how His Majesty arranges it, she will always dote on her." It won't be bad for the girl."

But how can He not think about it, she has stayed in the palace, and her status and status are always the most important.

He suffocated in his heart for a few days, couldn't help it, and finally took the courage to find an opportunity to quietly mention in front of Ye Chu, saying that the current emperor is going to be drafted.

Ye Chu didn't know the emperor at all, she just listened to it as a story, and she didn't know what was going on in the draft, so she would ask questions out of curiosity, and Mrs. He explained it to her.

Ye Chu suddenly realized: Oh, the emperor is going to choose a beauty.

That day Xie Dan gave a banquet to his clan relatives in Han Yuan Hall, and came back a bit late, so he sent someone to tell Ye Chu that he would not come back to eat because of the banquet at night, and told her to eat well by herself, remember to take a walk after dinner.

No one dared to pour wine to the tyrannical and cold-hearted emperor. Xie Dan drank a few cups. Eunuch Chen thought that the emperor would rest in the Zichen Palace for the night, but he returned to the Zichen Palace to wash his face with a bit of a smile on his face. Drunk still rode out of the palace.

When Xie Dan returned to Ye's house, the servant brought him a bowl of hangover soup, saying that the girl had asked someone to prepare it.

After Xie Dan drank the soup, he wandered to the backyard.

Autumn is here, and the heat is still unbearable during the day, but it feels a bit cooler at night.The yard was quiet, and the chirping of autumn insects could be vaguely heard.Normally, Ye Chu should have fallen asleep at this time, Xie Dan walked into the yard, saw that there was still light in the bedroom, so he decided to go in and have a look.

The big maid on duty tonight is Chun Bo, seeing him come in and getting up to give a blessing, Xie Dan raises his hand to make a silent gesture, and walks lightly to the bedside.The little girl is hugging the red thin quilt, with one arm outside, revealing half of her snow-white arm, she seems to be asleep.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Xie Dan came up to him, the little girl suddenly turned her face and gave him a sweet smile with a bit of sleepiness.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Xie Dan smiled unconsciously and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I slept too much during the day and didn't fall asleep. I'm afraid you're drunk."

"Nonsense, have you ever seen me drunk?"

"Well, no." Ye Chu said, "But Aunt He said that you must drink alcohol at the banquet, and you will feel very uncomfortable when you get drunk, so she asked me to prepare you hangover soup."

"I said, why did you remember to prepare me hangover soup?" Xie Dan said with a smile, "You don't have to worry, I don't drink often, and I don't get drunk easily. Besides, even if I get drunk, there are people in my room. There is no need for you not to sleep well at such a late hour, and still worrying about it when someone is serving you."

Ye Chu nodded to show that he understood, and asked curiously: "Brother, are you busy in the palace now?"

"Not very busy." Xie Dan asked, "What's the matter?"

"Aren't you going to choose a beautiful woman for the emperor? I thought you were going to be even busier."

Xie Dan: "..."

Xie Tan's eyes darkened slightly, but his face remained unchanged. He asked with a smile, "You still know about this, what else have you heard?"

"I heard that the emperor is going to be drafted."

Ye Chu yawned delicately, squinted his eyes slightly, and smiled softly with a nasal voice, "It is said in the classics that the emperor will have many concubines, such as the Sangong Sixth Court, the 27th wives, and the 81st imperial wives. Thinking about where he got so many beautiful concubines, it turns out that he wants to select beauties from all over the world, this emperor is too lustful."

The author says:

After negotiating with the editor, it is scheduled to enter v on the 9th. In fact, it will be tomorrow night, midnight, and three o'clock.Waiting for you.Beauties who go to bed early don't stay up late, you can watch it on Saturday morning.
