Chapter 16 Concubine Liu

 Outside Yanfu Palace, Xu Shouyun said goodbye to Li Jing, and then walked into the palace.

There are second-class eunuchs guarding the entrance to the palace, but these eunuchs are people who always accompany the concubine.

If you really think that you are a first-class eunuch and you can look down on them, then you will be the unlucky one.

After all, we are part of the same family, and I am an outsider.

This is also the rule of the Wei court. All concubines will have a corresponding number of eunuchs and maids. A concubine like this will have eight eunuchs and eight maids.

These are confidants who serve the concubine day and night, and live in this palace.

The grade may not be high, but this is their territory after all.

The palace requires that the first-class eunuchs take turns to be on duty and go over to solve some problems for each concubine.

Of course, the main purpose is to supervise. When people gather together, no one knows what the concubine has done.

But a eunuch was placed there just to deter him from doing bad things.

Moreover, there will always be a chief eunuch beside the concubine, who is a fifth-rank official, three ranks higher than Xu Shouyun.

In the Wei palace, there were seven concubines in total, and there were twenty-five concubines below, but they could not be called by the word Tai. The ones below were the nobles, there were more than seventy, and the ones below were the showmen.

However, after the empress ascended the throne, she sent most of her concubines away. After all, staying in the harem was of little use.

This can be considered a kind of kindness.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if some are willing to stay in the palace.

But just to serve this small group of people, there are as many as 10,000 eunuchs and maids in the palace, which is extremely luxurious.

"Stop, this is Yanfu Palace, no unauthorized entry is allowed."

As Xu Shouyun appeared, the two eunuchs guarding the door immediately spoke. They looked at Xu Shouyun with a hint of vigilance in their eyes.

"First-class eunuch Xu Shouyun, by His Majesty's order, came to Yanfu Palace to serve Concubine Liu."

Xu Shouyun took out his badge and revealed his identity.

The two of them were a little curious, but after reading the waist card, they immediately said: "Eunuch Xu, wait a moment, I will go and report."

Obviously, the two did not receive relevant news.

"Okay, I'm sorry."

To be honest, Xu Shouyun didn't like being called father-in-law, but the other party called him right, which was a bit embarrassing.

Standing outside the palace waiting, not long after, the eunuch who went to report came quickly and said with a smile on his face: "Eunuch Xu, the concubine allows you to come in."

He smiled and spoke, Xu Shouyun nodded, took back his belt and said: "Since I am here to serve the concubine, we will be a family from now on. I am a year or two older than you, so just call me Brother Xu."

"I'll go in first."

Xu Shouyun patted the other party's shoulder, and then walked towards the palace.

Walking into the palace, Yanfu Palace is particularly spectacular. All this is thanks to the previous emperors, the emperor who did not attend the morning court for thirty years.

If he hadn't built the palace extensively, it wouldn't be so magnificent.

The palace of the Wei Dynasty was many times larger than the Forbidden City in the previous life. In the Forbidden City in the previous life, the emperor could sit in a dragon sedan chair, but in the palace of the Wei Dynasty.

You have to ride the Dragon Boat Festival, which is a royal carriage. Otherwise, it doesn't matter whether you are tired or not when you come and go. The point is to waste time.

Stepping onto the steps made of white jade, Xu Shouyun lowered his head slightly.

When they arrived outside the palace, Xu Shouyun's voice slowly sounded.

"My subordinate Xu Shouyun has been ordered to come and serve the concubine."

Xu Shouyun did not walk in.

After all, he still understands the rules in the palace.

However, as soon as this sentence was said, a voice of dissatisfaction sounded first.

"Subordinate?"

"You're not from Yanfu Palace, you're just a chore eunuch, calling yourself a subordinate?"

The voice is slightly feminine and old, so he is obviously an old eunuch.

To be honest, calling yourself a subordinate is a more intimate title, while slave is more emphasizing the distance between master and servant.

The reason why Xu Shouyun calls himself a subordinate is not because he is a good boy, but simply because he does not want to call himself a slave and cannot speak out.

It's just that Xu Shouyun has nothing to say, so he can only pretend to be dead. He has a backing anyway, and even if Mrs. Liu doesn't like herself, she can't kill herself.

At worst, I'll just change it to a concubine.

If it really doesn't work, find a hornier dowager, or you'll have to sacrifice yourself.

After all, in the entire Wei court, he had his own unique magic weapon.

I don’t believe it and I’m not favored.

"It's just a small matter. Since His Majesty arranged to come, we are a family."

A gentle voice sounded, which seemed a bit weak. Just hearing this voice made people feel protective.

"Your name is Xu Shouyun, right?"

"It's a good name. From now on, I will trouble Eunuch Xu a lot more about Yanfu Palace."

Concubine Liu's voice sounded.

Very gentle, but this title is a bit unpleasant.

"Please rest assured, Princess, I will do my best."

Xu Shouyun nodded. After saying this, he slowly raised his head. In front of him stood an old eunuch, almost sixty years old, with arrogant eyes, looking at him from top to bottom.

There is still some rouge powder on the old eunuch's face, exuding a faint floral fragrance, which is disgusting.

"Taifei, you have such a good temper. These slaves are all very evil-minded."

"If we don't take good care of it, we will be in trouble in the future."

The old eunuch spoke out, and became even more unhappy after seeing Xu Shouyun's appearance.

For such an old hermaphrodite, Xu Shouyun is not willing to argue. He is not here to quarrel. He should do his job and do his own thing well.

Wait for your master to make great achievements, mention your position by the way, and then join forces to harm the Wei Dynasty, and your life will be complete.

What's the point of fighting with this kind of person?

"Okay, Eunuch Qian, don't be rude."

Concubine Liu's character is indeed very good, even when she scolds others, she is so gentle.

It's a pity that I can't see the face.

But just when Xu Shouyun felt pity, light footsteps sounded, and soon the figure of Concubine Liu appeared in his eyes.

For an instant, Xu Shouyun was slightly distracted.

Her face is as crystal clear as jade, like a crescent moon, like flowers and trees piled with snow, her body is quiet and leisurely, delicate and graceful, and she is incomparably beautiful.

Wearing white plain clothes, she perfectly displays the gentleness of Jiangnan women.

It's like after a rain, countless men holding umbrellas stand on the bridge and look at themselves quietly.

This kind of beauty is different from the stunning beauty of the person I'm dating, and it's not like Chu Yunrou's sexy sister, but the beauty of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

It makes people feel pitiful and gentle, and it also has a beauty that makes you want to hold it in your arms and protect it.

Of course, if you really want to hold her in your arms, you're afraid that the person you're trying to contact won't be able to save you, and you'll be beheaded on the spot.

Like a white lotus.

It emerges from the silt but remains unstained.

"I've met Mrs. Liu."

Xu Shouyun bowed his body and bowed to the other party.

"Did Eunuch Xu enter the palace at such a young age?"

The moment she saw Xu Shouyun, Concubine Liu also showed a look of surprise. After all, she was too young. She looked like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, just a teenager.

Not only is he young, Xu Shouyun's appearance is also extremely rare. If the clothes he wears are not eunuch official clothes, but white clothes, he really has the feeling of a humble gentleman and a noble man like jade.

At first glance, Xu Shouyun won Mrs. Liu’s visual favor.

"Back to the concubine, my family is poor, so I was sent to the palace. Although I am younger, my subordinates have also done a lot of work at home and know how to serve."

Xu Shouyun answered in a very normal way.

Concubine Liu nodded, then sighed and said: "You are all poor people. You will live well in Yanfu Palace from now on. As long as you don't cause trouble, if you encounter any trouble, I will help you."<

/p>

I’m not bragging, I’m really kind-hearted.

"Thank you, Princess."

Xu Shouyun opened his mouth, but after saying this, the old eunuch beside him spoke up.

"Princess, it's already dawn. Didn't you say yesterday that you would go to Manyun Pavilion to enjoy the scenery today? My servant has already asked someone to prepare the sedan chair."

The old eunuch smiled and mentioned this matter.

Obviously, he did it on purpose. This kind of person is very smart. Xu Shouyun's arrival made him aware of the crisis.

After all, Xu Shouyun is young and handsome, and everyone loves beauty. He is very worried that Xu Shouyun will lose his power if he gains the favor of Concubine Liu.

"Okay."

Concubine Liu spoke softly and then entered the depths of the palace.
