Chapter 2532 What do you think? How can we be vegetarian?
It was getting dark.
The backyard of the post station was filled with red lanterns, all of which were lit up at this time. The bright red light reflected on the faces of the exquisitely made-up dancers, each of whom was flushed with excitement.
Pairs of beautiful eyes kept looking towards the gate.
However, after waiting for a long time, His Majesty the Emperor still did not show up. Everyone became a little impatient and started to talk in low voices.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
"When will the Emperor arrive?"
"Yeah, I've been waiting for so long."
"Alright, alright, be patient. Is it possible that the Emperor can be seen by anyone?"
Just then, the postmaster came over dejectedly.
As soon as they saw him coming, the musicians sitting on both sides of the stage hurriedly began to play and sing, but the postmaster waved his hand impatiently and said, "That's enough, stop playing."
Everyone then stopped and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
"Let's all go."
"Disbanded?"
Everyone looked bewildered, and the dancers rushed forward and asked, "My lord, where is the emperor? Why did he leave?"
The postmaster said unhappily, "Your Majesty? Your Majesty will not watch singing and dancing tonight."
"What?!"
Everyone frowned when they heard this.
If the emperor doesn't watch singing and dancing, what does he do at night?
Could it be that I am just going to sleep like this? This is too boring.
The dancers were originally very excited, all dreaming of flying up to the branches and becoming phoenixes. Now, they suddenly woke up from their dreams and couldn't help but get angry. They said, "My lord, you clearly agreed that we would serve the emperor tonight, why are you--"
"How should I know?"
The postmaster thought of how he had just been scolded by the young eunuch beside the emperor, who told him that instead of having such evil thoughts, he should take good care of the passing carriages and horses. He was so scared that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
His small post station had received quite a few carriages and horses. Even if they were not important ministers in the court, but just some minor officials, who wouldn't love to enjoy themselves and have a beautiful woman in their arms?
It was because he understood these people's thoughts that he made such grand preparations to welcome the imperial visit.
But unexpectedly, the flattery hit the horse's hoof.
So he let out a sigh of resentment and said, "Don't ask any more questions. The emperor won't come, so you all should leave."
The dancers could only return home disappointed.
Instead, another postman from the post station came over and asked, "Sir, does the emperor really not want to watch singing and dancing, and does he not want these beauties to accompany him?"
The postmaster frowned and nodded.
You know, he had to lose money to do all these things. Now things are not done well, but the expenses have already been incurred and he has to make up for it himself. He is very angry.
Several postmen were a little bit unconvinced: "Is this true?"
"Your Majesty actually spends his evening so simply?"
"There are so many concubines in the harem, but when they come here, they don't even watch the singing and dancing, and the dancers are not good either. This is too—"
"snort,"
Hearing this, the postmaster sneered again, "What do you mean by 'sushi'? There is no cat in the world that doesn't steal fish."
When several people heard this, they opened their eyes wide and asked in a low voice: "What?"
The postmaster said, "Just now when I came down from upstairs, I saw that the emperor had dismissed everyone around him and only called in one person to serve. Do you know who it was?"
"who?"
"The imperial physician."
"Imperial Physician?"
Everyone looked at each other, and immediately remembered: "Is that the female imperial physician?"
The postmaster said, "How can a man and a woman stay alone in a room together?"
