Chapter 917 Extra Story: Xue Chi and Pei Wanzhao (3)
Chapter 917 Extra: Xue Chi and Pei Wanzhao (3)
This incident triggered a tsunami in the inner court.
All the concubines of Xue Chi knew that the emperor was a handsome man.
When others reach middle age, they are still thin and slender, without any bumps when walking. The shoulders and back are tight and smooth, and the posture is elegant.
His facial features are extremely outstanding. I am afraid that these concubines have never seen a man more handsome than Xue Chi.
"Why is it different from the legend?"
"I want to see Your Majesty, too."
"The Empress is so scheming. She is usually a little adult and has great opinions. But she is like a doll in front of the emperor, jumping around like a doll."
The concubines complained a little about Pei Wanzhao.
Pei Wanzhao is the only person who can meet the emperor and the only person who is favored by the emperor.
The concubines began to pay frequent greetings to the Queen's harem, and many people didn't leave all day, pretending not to hear any urging.
They used this method and really met the emperor several times.
Everyone who has seen it is true that the emperor has the same celestial and human nature.
Xue Chi's attitude towards this was cold.
When he found someone who was crazy about him, he asked the Discipline Inspection Department to come to warn him; if he didn't listen to the warning, he would go to the Discipline Inspection Department for training.
The Discipline Department is the most terrifying place in the harem. If you go in, you can't get out without taking off a layer of skin. Many palace maids and eunuchs make mistakes, and after entering, they will never be found again.
His strength was so strong that the concubines felt disappointed and were shocked at the same time.
The brief chaos passed, and the lives of Xue Chi and Pei Wanzhao returned to peace.
Pei Wanzhao said to the dowry maids around him: "They all like the emperor's brother, don't they?"
The maid said, "Yes."
"In the future, they will all serve the emperor's brother and have children for him, right?" Pei Wanzhao said again.
The maid didn't know how to answer for a moment.
The disciplinary nanny just heard it and felt a sudden slap in her heart. Whether it was Concubine De or the old lady of the Pei family, they were worried that the queen would have such exclusive hearts.
A qualified queen must coordinate the entire harem and arrange the concubines to serve the bed.
She must not favor her, otherwise the court officials will discuss it; she must learn to balance and suppress in the palace. She must have the final say who is favored and who has children.
However, the queen is still young for the time being, so there is no need to let her know some of the methods. She just needs to understand that the emperor is not her alone.
This concept must be instilled in her early.
"Empress, they are His Majesty's concubines and your family." said the tutor, "If you only favor the harem, what will the courtiers say? I told you last time, have you forgotten?"
Of course Pei Wanzhao remembers it.
The discipline nanny said that many evil spirits in history are actually the daughters of good people.
But the emperor liked her and favored her alone, and the historian's work would destroy her and her family, and described them as unforgivable.
The censors will also impeach.
It is not only her who is embarrassed, but also her family. Thousands of years later, someone will still call him a demon concubine and a vixen to the history books.
"I know, I know everything." Pei Wanzhao interrupted the disciplinary nanny, stood up, stood in front of the window, and sniffed her newly folded osmanthus, "I'm just unhappy..."
"Empress, you have to endure it even if you are unhappy. How can you tolerate unhappiness in this palace?" said the nanny of the discipline, "The last time His Majesty did not come, the Empress was unhappy, and she did a good job later."
Pei Wanzhao felt hesitant for the first time.
She nodded: "I will still do a good job."
The nanny was very pleased.
In the following days, Pei Wanzhao often went to Concubine De to copy scriptures for her, and listened to Concubine De to talk about the past in the palace.
Concubine De changed her voice and mentioned the last riot. She asked Pei Wanzhao: "Did she be beaten back when she arranged for the bedtime service for His Majesty?"
Pei Wanzhao: "This is not my control, it is my wet nurse. In the Imperial Study room, every time the signs sent by His Majesty comes back without looking at them."
"It should also be advised." Concubine De said, "The overall situation is the most important. When he ascended the throne for a long time, if he had no children, others would stare at him, and the courtiers would also be worried."
"...But, I haven't grown up yet." Pei Wanzhao was a little anxious, "The Supreme Emperor said that I have to wait until I get married before I can complete the family and give birth to the emperor's brother."
Concubine De smiled.
She hugged Pei Wanzhao in her arms and whispered to her: "Silly child, your son will always be a legitimate son and will not interfere with anything."
Look at Your Majesty, she is neither the legitimate son nor the eldest son, and she still inherits the throne. If she has to give birth to the eldest son, how long will it be?
Let other people live first. As long as there is a prince in the palace, the court officials will feel at ease. You have to persuade Your Majesty in this matter."
Pei Wanzhao bit her lip.
Concubine De: "Your Majesty and I are not mother and son after all, and I dare not persuade you deeply. When I think about it, I can't rest assured day and night."
"Don't be sad." Pei Wanzhao said immediately, "I'll go and persuade the emperor brother."
On that day, she found out that there were no foreign ministers in the imperial study room, so she asked the kitchen to make snacks and gave them to Xue Chi in person.
Xue Chi didn't like snacks, so she put down the memorials and took time to chat with her, treating her like a child, but her attitude was very serious.
In Pei Wanzhao's opinion, the emperor's brother never perfunctory her.
"...The concubine said, I want to persuade the emperor brother." Pei Wanzhao felt so sad when she thought of those words, as if the clouds had accumulated rain, and it was about to rain.
"What are you trying to persuade me?" Xue Chi didn't hear clearly.
Pei Wanzhao cried.
She was wearing the queen's court uniform and looked decent, but she was a child after all. She cried and cried, with no aesthetic sense, but very contagious.
Xue Chi felt panic when she heard her crying.
He took her hand and said, "Tell me, who bullied you?"
Pei Wanzhao still cried.
Xue Chi coaxed her for a while, but still couldn't coax her, so she had to hug her tightly.
He wrapped her tightly in his arms and gently patted her back, like a father hugging his daughter. At this time, Pei Wanzhao put his back hand around his neck and slowly stopped crying.
She sobbed softly, her body twitched from time to time, obviously crying fiercely.
After calming down, she told Xue Chi about her thoughts and Concubine De's words.
After hearing this, Xue Chi said to Pei Wanzhao in his ear: "I didn't think about asking them to give birth to a baby for me. Don't worry, I know this."
"Why do you always return the bedding service arranged by you?" Pei Wanzhao asked again, "Is it because I didn't arrange it well?"
"No." Xue Chi's chin was placed on top of her head, "You did a good job, it's me. I don't like strangers."
"I'm not a stranger."
"Yes, you are not, you are my queen." Xue Chi smiled, "Don't cry. If you don't want to do anything in the future, send someone to tell me."
Pei Wanzhao nodded.
She fell asleep in Xue Chi's arms later.
The eunuch told Concubine De about this.
After hearing this, Concubine De couldn't help but smile: "Wan Zhao this child has a scheming, but she can't use it. She is always lucky.
This time, she was also lucky. Since the emperor didn't have this idea, let's not forget it. The plates for the bed were sent to the emperor and let the people around him take over.
Whenever he wants to make arrangements, he will make arrangements directly. If he doesn’t want to make arrangements, it’s not worth it. We are evil people and it’s wrong for the queen to be wronged."
