Chapter 117 All the harem have to work for him?
"Beiyongqi Xingchen/Beiyongqi Xingrou meets the emperor."
As the brother and sister entered Yu's study, they saluted Lu Yanshi.
"Stand up." Lu Yanshi motioned for them to sit down.
The moment Qi Xingrou raised her head, Lu Yanshi was speechless.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman.
【Wow, what a beautiful sister. 】
Lu Li's saliva spurted out.
Qi Xingrou's beauty was different from anything she had ever seen.
She seemed beautiful without realizing it, with a sense of transcendence like a lotus emerging from clear water.
She just stood there, and people wanted to give her all the good things in the world. She was so well-behaved and beautiful that people couldn't help but feel pity for her.
"Your Majesty, this is the letter my father asked me to bring to you." Qi Xingchen took out a letter.
Cao Dehai took it and handed it to the emperor.
Only then did Lu Yanshi withdraw his gaze from Qi Xingrou.
He glanced at the letter briefly. Most of the words in the letter were condemnations of Qi Xingran and Qi Xingyue, as well as a few sentences of self-blame for not teaching his children strictly enough, and he repeatedly stated that he had absolutely no intention of rebelling to restore the country.
Qi Chengfeng also praised Qi Xingrou to the skies in the letter, saying that he sent his most beautiful daughter to him to be taken into his harem as a token of his sincerity.
Seeing that Lu Yanshi finished reading his father's letter without saying a word, Qi Xingchen and Qi Xingrou were very nervous.
【Father must be moved! 】
Hearing his daughter's complaints, Lu Yanshi's face froze.
This little guy, doesn't he know what it means to see through something but not speak it out?
[Alas, if I were a man, I couldn’t help it either.]
Lu Li sighed and looked at Qi Xingrou with knotted eyes.
Lu Yanshi nodded in approval. No man could resist a beauty like Qi Xingrou.
Seeing that Lu Yanshi still didn't speak, Qi Xingchen gave his sister a look, signaling her to break the silence.
Qi Xingrou received her brother's hint, bit her lip, and bowed to Lu Yanshi with a smile in her eyes: "Your Majesty, Rouer came to Daxia to marry under the order of my father. Please accept Rouer."
Now that people have made it clear, Lu Yanshi has no choice but to give a definite answer.
He thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then I will make you a beauty. Let's call you Rou."
Qi Xingchen and Qi Xingrou didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
"Rou'er thanks the emperor for his grace." Qi Xingrou hurriedly thanked him.
After completing the task assigned by his father, Qi Xingchen hurriedly took his leave, leaving his sister in the palace.
[What should I do? If my father really accepts her, my mother's position will not be shaken, right? ]
[What if my father is seduced by beauty and wants to depose the queen and make my beautiful sister the queen? ]
[If my beautiful sister gives father another beautiful child, then wouldn’t I, the little princess, lose favor? ]
Lu Li was worried.
I don't even have the mood to click on the beeping sound in the melon-eating system.
Now she only cares about whether her mother and herself can live a good life in the future.
[It's okay. If my father wants to depose the queen, I will take my mother and run away.]
[Helian Qian, ah Helian Qian, you should fight for this princess's honor, rise to prominence as soon as possible, and let this princess live a good life. ]
[No, it's not reliable to bet on Helian Qian alone. I need to find a few more alternatives.]
[If Helian Qian turns against me, I can always find someone else.]
Lu Li's inner mumblings made Lu Yanshi very angry.
Is this the kind of person he is in his daughter's heart?
Although Qi Xingrou is beautiful, she is nothing compared to the future of Da Xia, let alone compared with her, she is nothing.
Even if Da Xia is gone, he can't live without his precious daughter Lu Li!
Lu Yanshi couldn't say those heartfelt words to Lu Li in front of Qi Xingrou, so he could only hold back his anger and ask, "I heard from your father that you have been learning to speak very fast since you were a child? You even know the Miao language of southern Xinjiang?"
"Yes, this is the only skill that Rou'er can show off." Qi Xingrou smiled shyly.
"Very good. Starting tomorrow, I will ask Lord Qu from the Ministry of Works to come to the palace to teach you. There is a coded language that you need to learn." Lu Yanshi looked serious.
Qi Xingrou stayed where she was.
What?
Is it so difficult to survive in the Great Xia Harem?
Do you need to learn to be a concubine?
Lu Li was also dumbfounded.
Isn't my father taking a concubine for me? Is he recruiting subordinates for me?
"Okay, Cao Dehai, send her to the side hall of the Yanxi Palace. From now on, she will be handed over to Concubine Xian." Lu Yanshi made a good plan.
Qu Fufeng once said that people in the 21st century need to learn a bird language specifically for dealing with foreigners.
This proves that, apart from him, no one in Daxia and the surrounding countries knows this language.
If he could cultivate a group of confidants who could speak bird language, he wouldn't have to worry about a talent like Song Yulan emerging in other countries.
They can imitate the handwriting, but they can't understand what the words mean. Is there a better way to encrypt than this?
Qi Xingrou learns languages very quickly, and it would be a waste of her talent if we didn't send her to learn bird language with Qu Fufeng.
This is a good opportunity to check whether Qi Chengfeng is bragging or not.
Besides, didn't Qu Fufeng want to get married? He thought Qi Xingrou was pretty good. With such a beautiful woman in front of him, he shouldn't be seduced by a mediocre woman from another country.
Putting Qi Xingrou next to Concubine Xian, it makes sense for Qu Fufeng to enter the palace to visit her sister.
If Qu Fufeng and Qi Xingrou secretly fell in love, that would be the best. Qi Xingrou stayed in the harem, and she didn't have to worry about outsiders being able to bribe her and steal the secret recipe of explosives.
Afterwards, he could marry them privately.
When the world is unified in the future, Qi Xingrou will be released from the palace and she will be with Qu Fufeng openly.
Anyway, by then, there will be Yu Shutong who will be sent out of the palace after faking her own death to marry someone else, so she won't be a big deal.
If they had a daughter before that, she would be given to Concubine Xian to raise.
Concubine Xian had never had any children, so having a child would be a comfort to her if she had some blood relationship with him.
After taking Qi Xingrou into the harem, Qi Chengfeng can feel at ease.
Kill several birds with one stone.
Lu Yanshi was very satisfied.
Lu Li's tiny head couldn't possibly think of so many things.
She just felt that her father was becoming more and more deranged.
Won't it be that in the future, all the concubines in the harem will have to work for him?
…
The news that the emperor had taken in a new beauty soon spread throughout the harem.
On the second day, when paying respects to the Empress, everyone saw Qi Xingrou's beauty, and everyone thought that the next favorite concubine was about to be born.
Unexpectedly, the emperor never turned over her card once.
In the harem, only the Queen and Concubine Xian knew Lu Yanshi's plan.
So both of them were very nice to Qi Xingrou.
One reason was that she was not a love rival at all, and the other was that she was her brother's wife.
"Don't be afraid, the Queen is a very nice person." Qu Zhiwei took Qi Xingrou's hand and went to pay their respects to the Queen.
"Yes." Qi Xingrou obediently followed her to Weiyang Palace.
Greetings today, Lu Li is here too.
Everyone was very happy. The little princess had been taken away by the emperor a few days ago, and today they finally got the little princess.
Last time, the fox demon and the Prince of Xichang had only eaten half of the melon and hadn’t finished it yet!
