Tang Ruyu slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with tears, very sad and beautiful.
An oval face, full of charm.
If a man looks at such a beautiful woman, he will be distraught. If he is not interested, he probably won't be able to win her.
Qin Yun muttered to himself that if Tang Ruyu was still clean, she could be admitted to the harem.
Although there were many women in the harem, most of them were of the unfavorable generation, Qin Yun was not interested in many of them.
Just because part of the body was given to him by the original owner, even though they were the same body, Qin Yun always felt that they were incompatible with each other.
"you…"
"Ahem." Qin Yun was a little embarrassed for a moment. He looked at Zheng Ruyu and didn't know how to speak. He felt like he was being forced with authority.
He doesn't like this and prefers consensual relationships.
Mr. Feng and Eunuch Xi looked at each other and immediately figured out the holy meaning.
"Your Majesty, since you can't ask anything, why not ask some other time? Let's keep her in the palace for the time being." Feng Lao cupped his hands and said.
Eunuch Xi also stood up and bent down and said: "Your Majesty, leave this matter to your servants."
Imprisoned in the palace, these five words are full of meaning.
A hint of shame flashed across Zheng Ruyu's face. She was nervous and didn't know what to do, so she lowered her head and thought wildly.
Qin Yun looked embarrassed. How could his little thoughts be guessed by the officials around him so quickly?
He touched his chin, picked up a memorial, and said casually: "Well... then let's do it as you two said."
Eunuch Xi showed a smile and immediately hinted to Zheng Ruyu: "Why don't you thank Your Majesty soon?"
Zheng Ruyu woke up from a dream, bit her red lips, and said at a loss: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness."
Qin Yun waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go."
Later, Eunuch Xi took Zheng Ruyu away and found a medium-sized palace for her as her bedroom.
Along the way, he was persuading Zheng Ruyu and hinting at Zheng Ruyu.
Let her abide by the rules and persuade her to listen to His Majesty, so as to save her own life and the future of the Zheng family. With luck, she might be able to transform herself into the most noble person in the harem like Concubine Yao.
Zheng Ruyu was a little resistant at first. After all, she was the wife of the Lin family, and she really couldn't accept it when she wanted to obey the emperor.
But as soon as she heard that Pei Yao had become a noble concubine, she became interested.
Lin Changshu ignored her and never touched her. So far, she is still a virgin.
Lin Changshu only cared about the brothel girl, which had made her resentful for many years. If she could gain the peace of her parents' family and hope to become a noble concubine by obeying the emperor, it would not be impossible.
She let out a long sigh, lowered her eyebrows, and finally gritted her teeth and accepted Eunuch Xi's arrangement.
As night fell, Eunuch Xi returned to the imperial study room to resume his duties.
At this time, Qin Yun was meeting with He Xiu and Chang Hong.
They are talking about the defense of the army and the palace. The place where you sleep must be firmly protected.
"Let's do this for today, General He. I grant you the power of life and death. Any general of the right camp who dares to violate you in both positive and negative ways can be killed first and then punished."
"Chang Hong, if you need anything about city defense, you can also communicate with He Xiu."
"The safety of my palace, both inside and outside, will be left to you two. When I eliminate the powerful officials, I will not forget you two."
He Xiu and Chang Hong's expressions were shocked, and they both knelt on the ground and shouted: "I obey His Majesty's will, and I will die with all my heart!"
Qin Yun smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand, and let the two of them go.
Wait until the imperial study becomes quiet.
Only then did Eunuch Xi step forward, bend down and say: "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. I asked the old nun in the palace to check Zheng Ruyu to make sure she is clean."
"Besides, I also enlightened her."
Qin Yun raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that this old eunuch really understands me and can handle everything in one go.
"Well, that's right. I'll collect twenty taels of gold later. I'll reward you for it. Do it well."
Grandpa Xi looked overjoyed. As eunuchs, they are not humane. What they like most is money.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Qin Yun stood up and stretched. After sitting for a day, his waist was a little sore.
Eunuch Xi immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't turned over the sign today yet. Are you going to see Concubine Shu or the daughter of the Zheng family?"
"Let the imperial study make more good things. I will go to Concubine Shu to have a meal with her, and then go to Zheng Ruyu's place."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Eunuch Xi was very quick and immediately asked several young eunuchs to deliver the message.
After a stick of incense, go to the Hall of Nourishing Heart.
"Your Majesty, I miss you so much." Concubine Xiao Shu threw herself into Qin Yun's arms.
She had been worried about such a big thing last night. This morning she got the news that the rebellion failed and a large number of powerful officials were dismissed, which made her extremely happy.
If she hadn't been afraid that Qin Yun would be busy, she would have dragged her injury to the imperial study room to find Qin Yun.
Qin Yun stroked her soft hair, sniffed her body fragrance greedily, and said softly: "Aren't I here? The Yangxin Palace has almost become my bedroom, and you are still so reluctant to part with me?"
Concubine Xiao Shu showed a happy smile: "Your Majesty, Xiang'er will miss you if I don't see you for half a stick of incense."
Qin Yun smiled, hugged her and sat down, saying, "How is your injury? Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore. The wound healed quickly." Concubine Xiao Shu said.
Qin Yun nodded and took out a letter from his arms.
"I just arrived. Your elder brother sent someone to send it back urgently. Take a look."
Concubine Xiao Shu glanced at it, stretched out her hand to take a look, but retracted her hand, frowning and said: "This... I'd better not look at it, after all, it's military affairs."
After the last impeachment incident, she became extremely cautious for fear of causing any trouble.
Qin Yun put away the letter and dictated: "A great victory in Cangshan. Most of the over 10,000 horse bandits were killed and wounded and fled in all directions. Your eldest brother won a complete victory. After the victory, he will return to the court!"
"Really? So fast?" Concubine Xiao Shu raised her eyebrows with joy, and her beautiful eyes shone with a brilliance that had not been seen for a long time.
"Your eldest brother is very brave, but the bandits are just chickens and dogs. This is what I expected."
"When your eldest brother comes back, I will have reason to promote him. It is time for those old useless guys in the Ministry of War to give way. When the overall situation becomes more stable, I will make you my queen!"
Hearing this, Concubine Xiao Shu was stunned for a moment, and then she was a little overwhelmed with surprise.
Her face was red, her eyes were evasive and she said, "Your Majesty, I have never thought about becoming a queen. In such a position as a mother who honors the world, Xiang'er thinks she doesn't have that much ability..."
Qin Yun couldn't help but smile when he saw her trying and refusing, and stretched out his hand to scratch the bridge of her delicate nose.
"As long as I say yes, who dares to say no!"
"This position of queen belongs to you. It's just a matter of time. This is my guarantee!"
Concubine Xiao Shu's heartbeat was racing and her face was flushed. She was the queen, the master of the harem, and the entire Xiao family would be lifted by this. How could she not be happy.
She suppressed her emotions, immediately gave her a blessing, and said softly: "Thank you, Brother Yun, for your love. I have nothing to repay."
"Haha, when you recover from your injury, you can repay me by giving birth to a dragon son as soon as possible."
Concubine Xiao Shu's face turned redder, her thick eyelashes fluttered, showing a look of hope: "I will definitely give Brother Yun credit."
"Hahaha!" Qin Yun laughed, looking at the table full of delicacies: "Eat, eat!"
"..."
In the evening, we had dinner.
Qin Yun accompanied Concubine Xiao Shu for a while, and then went to Shengqing Palace, where Zheng Ruyu temporarily lived.
