The breeze is blowing gently and the moon is bright in the sky.
Liaodong is very cool at this time, and the evening breeze makes people feel very comfortable. Although it is summer, it is really not hot here, unlike in later times, the Northeast is not like the Northeast.
It's not cold in the winter and not hot in the summer, of course, this is Liaoning. This summer, it doesn't feel hot at all, and you even need to wear thicker clothes when going out in the morning and evening.
Zhu Youxiao was wearing a cloak and standing on the steps of the palace, looking at the bright moon outside. He was in a pretty good mood.
"Your Majesty, the people are ready. Should we have them sent over?" Wei Chao looked at Zhu Youxiao and asked cautiously.
Zhu Youxiao certainly knew who was prepared, it was the Dayuer sister.
You know, sleeping with the emperor is not a simple matter. It requires a very complicated process.
Although the Ming Dynasty did not have the Qing Dynasty's rule of flipping cards or the rule of sending rolls, the necessary procedures still had to be followed, such as bathing, showering, physical examination, changing clothes and jewelry, not having any sharp objects on the body, etc., and fingernails and toenails also had to be trimmed.
Of course, this is the first time process for every woman, and it will be much easier later. This is generally for the purpose of showing solemnity, but even in the later period, sleeping with the emperor is a very tedious process, unless the emperor is particularly close to the woman, similar to the ones in Zhu Youxiao's palace now.
The emperor was close to you and would come to sleep with you, rather than calling you over when he needed you. Usually, when someone was called over, they would send him away after the service was completed, and the emperor would not leave you there overnight.
Concubines who could stay with the emperor overnight were rare in the palace. If the emperor was willing to stay with you, you would be considered a superior person.
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Chao and said, "No need to send it over. I will go there myself later. Just let them wait in the room."
After saying this, Zhu Youxiao turned his head back.
Wei Chao hurried to announce the decree, which was the emperor's order.
But he could probably understand that the emperor really liked the two sisters. Their status was one factor, but also because they were both really beautiful, and they were sisters, so it was normal for the emperor to like them.
Zhu Youxiao didn't know what the old eunuch Wei Chao was thinking, so he continued to look at the sky.
The arrangements for the war in Liaodong have basically been made, and all matters have been taken over by Sun Chengzong.
This time, the Ming Dynasty wanted to establish its power in Liaodong thoroughly, subdue Ordos and Khorchin, and let them lead the way. To put it bluntly, some of them were to die, but the main focus would be on Khorchin.
If Khorchin and Inner Khalkha unite to resist, it will be even simpler to destroy them together.
Zhu Youxiao and Sun Chengzong knew about this matter, but no one else knew.
Of course, there were benefits. Once the Inner Khalkha territory was conquered, Khorchin would still be able to share some of it, and even the Inner Khalkha prisoners could more or less give him some. After all, simply asking someone to work without any benefits would truly create an enemy.
Let them work a little, feel a little pain, but still get some benefits, they can endure this.
After standing up and stretching his muscles, Zhu Youxiao prepared to go to bed.
The night is short, and there are two sisters waiting for me there. I will leave in two days, so I should enjoy these two days.
This time, he would go with the imperial guards, as it would be safer on the road. Of the two imperial guards, the one that followed Zhu Youxiao back to the city was Lu Xiangsheng's.
Sun Chuanting's royal army was left to Sun Chengzong, and the two of them could communicate with each other more easily; on the contrary, Lu Xiangsheng probably didn't see eye to eye with Sun Chengzong.
But it doesn’t matter. In this matter, it’s not a bad thing that the ministers cannot urinate in the same pot.
Walking forward with his hands behind his back, Zhu Youxiao arrived soon.
Pushing open the gate and walking in, the courtyard was brightly lit and there were many people waiting around.
Obviously, this place has been carefully decorated, with all kinds of red things, even wedding characters posted, and big red candles burning in the yard.
Zhu Youxiao said nothing and walked into the room in the yard.
After pushing open the door, Zhu Youxiao saw Bumbutai and Hailanzhu.
The two sisters were originally sitting on the bed, but when they saw Zhu Youxiao come in, they knelt on the ground together.
Someone outside had already closed the door.
Wei Chao was standing not far from the door. He would not leave tonight and would not let anyone in.
Zhu Youxiao looked at the two sisters kneeling on the ground and forced himself to calm down.
At this time, the two sisters, one wearing a light pink thin skirt and the other wearing a light green thin skirt, were kneeling there.
This skirt is really thin and barely visible, and can be considered a popular type of clothing in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Youxiao also knew one thing, that is, there was a ribbon on the back of the thin skirt. As long as he reached out and pulled it, the thin skirt would fall off. There would be no situation where it would take a long time to untie it, and it did not require any complicated techniques.
Smiling, he walked over and helped the two sisters up. Zhu Youxiao asked, "Are you used to it?"
The two sisters smiled and nodded.
Bumbutai said: "The people outside are very thoughtful, and the food and other things are also very satisfactory. Your Majesty, don't worry, we sisters are living well."
Zhu Youxiao waved his hand indifferently, saying there was no need to believe it.
As an emperor, the most difficult thing in life is probably to hear the truth. In the entire Ming Dynasty, the only person who could tell Zhu Youxiao the truth was probably Empress Zhang.
