Eunuch Li took a deep look at An Jiu. Xiao Fuzi had secretly told him what happened in the hall yesterday.
Xiao Fuzi asked: "Master, do you think Xiao Jiu is stupid?"
stupid?
Eunuch Li didn't think so.
The emperor has too many things: power, money, status, whatever he wants is readily available to him. He said yesterday that he wanted Xiaojiu. Maybe he really likes her, or maybe he just wanted her on a whim. No matter what, how long can the emperor's love last?
There are so many good things that he can see. Now they are new to Xiaojiu, but it won’t be long before his sense of novelty remains. Will it be long before his sense of novelty remains?
Since ancient times, which favorite concubine can always be favored?
After hearing this, Xiao Fuzi nodded and said, "So what Xiao Jiu did was right, but..."
Xiao Fuzi still thinks it's good to be a wife, because she can get clothes and food whenever she wants, and there are people to serve her.
Eunuch Li looked at his stupid apprentice.
"There are so many women in the palace. Do you think they are all living well?"
Xiao Fuzi shook his head and said, of course not.
Apart from anything else, the concubines of the late emperor were very ordinary, and some of them lived even worse than slaves.
Eunuch Li said: "Xiao Jiu has no power, no influence, and no background. If she loses the protection of the emperor in the harem, she will be miserable."
In the past, Eunuch Li always stood from the emperor's perspective. He thought that it was a blessing for the emperor to be fond of Xiaojiu.
But after spending a long time with Xiaojiu, I realized that people are emotional animals, so things are a little different now.
He hopes that Xiaojiu can have a good result.
Moreover, Xiaojiu is quite capable. Who among ordinary people would dare to put a hat on the emperor directly?
But the emperor didn't say a word, which meant he acquiesced.
This is a kind of indulgence.
A grace.
It seems that the emperor really likes Xiaojiu.
Eunuch Li thought so.
…
This Zhuangzi belongs to King Jing, who doesn't like staying in the palace in the capital. The neighbors around his palace are all nobles from the capital, and they are troublesome and annoying.
At this point, An Jiu was a little confused. It was okay that Prince Duan was young, but Prince Jing was older than the emperor. Wasn’t he married yet?
Following the emperor inside, we found that the Chinese-style courtyard was very well built, and the scenery inside each door was like a fine painting.
Not long after they left, Prince Duan ran out.
"Brother, you are finally here." Prince Duan said with a smile, "We have been waiting for you for a long time."
The emperor's face also showed a little more relief, but he did not smile, because the emperor had to be dignified and cold.
"My second brother is here too." Prince Duan said.
An Jiu remembered that King Jing was the third prince, the emperor was the fourth, and the second prince was said to be a very poetic person with high attainments in calligraphy and painting, and he would not return to the capital very soon.
When we entered the inner courtyard, the first thing that caught our eyes was a yard of red plum blossoms. They had not yet bloomed, but they were also very beautiful.
Prince Jing was drinking tea. This guy was in very good physical condition. In such a cold day, he came out wearing only a single layer of clothes and looked at the emperor's hat with interest.
Others may not know, but King Jing knew that the emperor's hair was very curly, so he attached great importance to his hairstyle. He never wore a hat when going out and would never allow others to mess up his hairstyle.
Of course, no one is so blind as to mess with the emperor's head.
"I am late." The emperor said, and looked at the man standing at the window painting.
An Jiu also looked over. He had to admit that the royal family had good genes. Most of the sons took after their mothers. All the princes looked different, but each one was more handsome than the other. For example, the second prince, Prince Ming, was tall and slender, with a face as white as jade. He was dressed in moon-white clothes, with a cool and elegant temperament, like the plum blossoms in the yard that bloom proudly in the snow and frost, or like a cool and handsome man walking out of an ancient painting.
An Jiu was stunned.
This is so handsome.
An Jiu looked at the handsome man as she walked, but she was also smart. She did not bump into the emperor's back as she did before, but stepped on the emperor's heel. The emperor was wearing boots and his shoes did not fall off, but he staggered and almost fell flat on his face.
Everyone was startled, and Prince Duan exclaimed: "Royal brother..."
King Jing came over, and King Ming also looked over here.
An Jiu wanted to beat herself to death. She was about to kneel down and apologize, but the emperor stood firm, exhaled and said, "I didn't see your feet clearly, it's okay."
After saying that, he walked into the house naturally with everyone. ,
An Jiu: "..."
Eunuch Li glanced at An Jiu and said with a smile, "Xiao Jiu, follow me."
If it were someone else, it might be over, but this matter depends on what the emperor thinks. If the emperor thinks it is not a big deal, then it is just a small matter.
The room was warm. The emperor took off his cloak as soon as he came in and sat down to talk with the other princes.
Ming Wang also put down his pen, and when he passed by An Jiu, he glanced at her, and then looked away.
Prince Duan smiled and said, "I heard that you, my brother, can eat meat now, so my third brother specially asked someone to kill a sheep. Today, we will eat roasted lamb."
King Jing seemed to be in a good mood. He took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The sheep from the northwest are not smelly."
And then northwest.
An Jiu felt that the presence of the Northwest region had become stronger recently, and she thought of Prince Ruyang again.
King Jing may have realized this, and he said, "I sent it from the front."
Prince Duan also understood what they meant. He smiled and asked, "How is that annoying guy doing recently?"
Prince Duan had heard about the Queen Mother's affairs a long time ago. He almost died of laughter and wanted to get close to him and mock him in person.
The emperor said indifferently: "That's it. I want to stay in the capital."
Prince Duan shook his head: "Absolutely not. This kid is a nuisance if he stays in the capital. I heard that he and the Qin family have been going to the red-light district recently. He wants you to think he is a playboy and let your guard down."
King Jing snorted coldly: "So cunning."
The emperor said, "The Qin family has property in Huajie."
Prince Duan snorted disdainfully: "The Qin family is not presentable, and they still want to make money."
They each have their own industries, but they look down on this kind of industry.
King Jing said: "Don't underestimate these people. There are many talented people in the red-light district who are not appreciated."
At this time, the Ming Wang, who had been silent the whole time, snorted coldly: "Going to a brothel to have sex with a prostitute? What kind of talent do you have?"
He was quite disdainful: "It's just some useless trash whining without any reason."
Prince Duan laughed and said, "Second brother, you have spoken my mind. Talented people since ancient times have been busy building achievements. Where do they have time to write poetry? I really hate those people the most. They eat and drink with girls, and spend the girls' money. They are simply a bunch of rubbish."
The emperor listened quietly, looking cold and majestic.
But my heart was already filled with joy.
[Second brother is still the same as always, hitting the nail on the head,]
【Hahaha. 】
An Jiu really didn't expect that a group of grown men sitting together would actually ignore others.
After they talked for a while, Prince Duan suddenly asked, "Second brother, I heard that you also went to Chu during this trip. How does Chu compare to Daxia?"
An Jiu and the Emperor also pricked up their ears; they both wanted to know.
