At dusk, Emperor Liu did not stay in Chuigong Hall, but visited Shulan Hall to stay with Concubine Shu of Zhou Dynasty. After moving to Luoyang, the names of many palaces and pavilions in the palace were chosen to be unified with those in Tokyo.
For example, the bedrooms of several high-ranking concubines. However, although the names are the same, the environment is very different. It is not only livable, but also adds a lot of gorgeous colors.
In the Shulan Hall, there was a scene of peaceful singing and dancing. The tunes played by the musical instruments were soft and soft, and the twelve musicians were all beautiful palace maids.
Emperor Liu was the only pure man in the entire palace. It was another piece of music newly composed by Concubine Zhou. The melody was brisk and pleasant, and even the dancing figures in the palace became more agile with the rhythm.
Emperor Liu basically couldn't tell the quality of the music, but he could feel the atmosphere and sympathize with it. Of course, his main attention was still on Lady Zhou's slightly charming dance.
Da Zhou is less than thirty-three years old, and his mature and plump figure has not lost its softness and can still perform various difficult movements. It is late autumn, and the air is cold outside, but the palace is full of spring.
Of course, what is full of spring is not the weather temperature, but the graceful beauties, which is the rare restless heart of Emperor Liu. At this time, Concubine Zhou Shu is a beautiful girl, with a dancing figure, enchanting and alluring, and her clothes look...
"Ragged", the tight underwear could not cover the trembling breasts, and there was only a light gauze covering the outside, releasing a hazy temptation, attracting Emperor Liu's eyes.
Da Zhou's character has always been gentle, elegant, versatile, and rarely so coquettish. However, occasionally tearing off the serious and virtuous character, revealing such a wanton and even indulgent side, naturally attracted Emperor Liu.
The surge, this unusual style, seemed to directly hit Emperor Liu's heart, making him not want to restrain himself...
Of course, there was also a young and beautiful young lady, Xiao Zhou, who accompanied Emperor Liu to drink and dance. Last winter, Haiyang Hou Zhou Zong passed away. Living a hundred years was just a luxury after all.
One year old is a hurdle. However, Zhou Zong passed away peacefully and died without any illness. Moreover, he lived to be ninety-one years old and was already considered a legend.
After Zhou Zong's death, Lady Zhou entered the palace more frequently. After all, they were "helpless", so the two sisters could take care of each other. Emperor Liu would also go to Shulan Palace once or twice a month, and his brother-in-law
The story with his sister-in-law unfolded naturally, and Emperor Liu once again experienced the happiness brought by sisters.
Although the title has not been officially conferred, many people inside and outside the palace know about it, and there are a lot of secret discussions in private. However, no one has any objection to this, and the court's etiquette does not stipulate that the emperor cannot have sisters.
This may just be a matter of the emperor's personal ethics, but for so many years, few people have dared to use personal ethics and private matters to admonish Emperor Liu, saying that he did something wrong or something.
There have been cases in the past, but there are no exceptions. Later, they were retaliated by Emperor Liu. The revenge from the emperor can be imagined. What kind of outcome will it be. Emperor Liu is very tolerant of issues such as right and wrong, etiquette, rules and regulations, but he must be treated accordingly.
If you point fingers at your private life, you can only say sorry.
As time went by, the ministers below also got to know each other. Therefore, there were many people who were outspoken in the Han Dynasty court, but there was really no one who was ignorant, and few who had no brains could survive in the court.
long......
Therefore, the romantic affair between Emperor Liu and Mrs. Xiao Zhou did not cause much turmoil in general, and even Queen Da Fu didn't say much.
After all, this pair of sisters was not the only one in the Han Palace. Among the officials of the Han Dynasty, not to mention raising sisters, it was not uncommon for mothers and daughters to be involved, and there were even more ways to play. In these cases, Emperor Liu
People who know it well. Those who talk about morality, talk about the three views, and do things that refresh the moral bottom line of modern people, among them are also well-educated people who have left their names in history and are talented in governing the country...
In the era of Emperor Liu, the status of women did not decline. On the contrary, it increased because of the emergence of Queen Mother Li and Queen Fu, who were extraordinary women who set an example for the world. Likewise, among the officials, there were many who were strict with their wives.
There are also many who can be included in female biographies, such as Yang Ye's wife, Feng Shi, who is now a third-grade imperial concubine.
However, these are only for the main wife, and the status of the other side wives and concubines is still low. Such is the trend of the times and such values, which is also a manifestation of the order of superiority and inferiority.
For Emperor Liu, they are also sisters, and the feelings brought to him by the Zhou sisters are obviously more pleasant and more relaxed. There is no way, for Da Fu, after so many years, in addition to the deep feelings, there is also
A lot of awe, Da Fu, it is ridiculous not to accompany Emperor Liu. In addition, there is also the saying that a wife is not as good as a concubine...
On the other hand, Da Zhou naturally felt uncomfortable about her sister's acceptance. However, what was helpless and sad was that she had no choice but to object and even had to force a smile.
She is not the empress of the Zhou Dynasty in official history, but Emperor Liu is a strong and unruly king. The reason for her recent behavior is probably to release the depression in her heart. She may feel better if she is immersed in music and dance.
Beside the food table, Emperor Liu was holding two chopsticks and tapping the cup. He also boasted of being a percussion instrument, but in fact it didn't match the rhythm of the dance music at all, but he enjoyed it.
After Concubine Zhou Shu danced, a little sweat oozed from her forehead, and she was panting. While she was dancing, she kept paying attention to Emperor Liu and Xiao Zhou. At this time, Emperor Liu's hand was naturally placed on her sister's.
On the shoulder, the younger sister also had a smile on her lips, her pretty face was slightly tipsy, and she almost threw herself into Emperor Liu's arms.
A touch of sadness and helplessness flashed through her beautiful eyes, and she sighed softly. The gauze skirt on her body was of good quality, and after dancing continuously, there was no trace of disorder, and it was still smooth and delicate. She walked towards Emperor Liu with lotus steps and graceful steps.
, bowed softly but timidly.
When Emperor Liu saw the beauty and heard the good news, his body became a little more relaxed. He smiled and waved to Da Zhou: "This is a beautiful dance. Thank you for your hard work! Come and sit down!"
Dazhou bent his knees and sat on the soft mat. Soon Emperor Liu was immersed in the decadent life of hugging each other, with a beautiful woman in each hand, and the feel and touch were obviously different.
"Sister dances so well!" Xiao Zhou obviously drank some wine, his pretty face was flushed, his eyes were blurred, and he said with a smile.
"It deserves a reward!" Emperor Liu also had a few drops of water on his beard. He let go of his sisters, poured a glass of wine himself, and handed it to Da Zhou: "I will reward you with this glass of wine and try this green bamboo leaf!"
"Thank you, official!" Da Zhou took it, raised the glass and drank it in one gulp, without any pause, but the ruddy color on his jade face immediately became a little brighter.
When Emperor Liu saw this, he was also smiling and happy, and he took a sip.
Looking at the sisters, Emperor Liu said again: "You sisters, if one of you plays the piano and the other plays the Xiao, you should complement each other!"
Although Emperor Liu did not give the order, both of them were very knowledgeable and each left the table to get their musical instruments. Soon the melodious and melodious sound of the piano and flute sounded...
Emperor Liu lay on his side on the mat, closed his eyes and listened. He obviously didn't understand the music, but he listened with gusto. Perhaps, he was not listening to music at all, but just enjoying this kind of fun.
Since his illness last year, Emperor Liu had been recuperating for nearly a year. It was only recently that he relaxed. After all, he is still a layman. It is obviously impossible for him to insist on being an ascetic during his leisure time. .
Wouldn’t it be a waste if we take good care of our kidneys but don’t use them?
The charming atmosphere in Shulan Palace was quickly broken. The person who broke it was none other than the eunuch Yan Tuo. In fact, this man had a guilty conscience, fearing that it would disturb Emperor Liu's interest, but he did not dare to hide it or report it.
After learning that Liu Xu and his entourage had arrived in Beijing, and together with the crown prince Liu Yang, they went into the palace to pay their respects. Emperor Liu, for a moment, had a thought in his mind, no see, let's talk about it tomorrow, doesn't the beautiful lady smell good?
Finally, he stood up, waved his sleeves, left the sisters behind, and slowly returned to the Chui Gong Hall...
