She blushed with embarrassment and said shyly: "I am now looking forward to meeting a man who I fall in love with at first sight. Just like my sister and the prince, they miss each other and care about each other. When we are together,
It's sweet and sweet. After we separated, we were worried about each other. We had a clear understanding of each other. We sent Gouchun wine to warm us in the next seat. We divided the cao and covered it with wax lamps. I sighed and listened to the drums to answer the official's call. I walked around Malantai and turned around." I never thought of Ling'er.
With such thoughts, it seems that this has really changed a lot with me. No wonder my old friend said that the person who is close to the red is red and the one who is close to the ink is black. I am also slowly changing Ling'er's view of love and worldview little by little.
Thinking of this, she smiled with relief. If she spread this concept like a virus, people in this era would undergo earth-shaking changes. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a misfortune.
Du Jun returned to the room and lay down on the bed. He had just agreed to the emperor. If he made a promise, how would he prosper in the future? It seemed that he had to find a way to send Miss Xia to the palace in a legitimate manner. Then the emperor would naturally feel sorry for him.
I admire him with admiration, and given time, my chance to become famous will not be far away.
He looked at the top of the bed, thinking silently in his heart, and suddenly an idea popped out. The emperor had just ascended the throne, and the harem had no owner, and he had not yet chosen a concubine. In the past, after the emperor ascended the throne, he would fill the harem to continue the heirs. See
The only choice is to use this gimmick, otherwise there is really no other way. Thinking of this, I can't sleep anymore.
Early the next morning, Du Jun got up early and came to the palace. At this time, Mu Lianlong had not gone to the morning court. Hearing Du Jun's request to see him, he immediately announced his arrival and asked, "How is Wan doing?
Time to enter the palace?"
Du Jun said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the common people are incompetent and cannot persuade Miss Xia. She said she only wants to be an upright husband and wife with you, Your Majesty. If she is so secretive, she would rather live alone outside until she grows old, and would rather never marry again in this life.
Already."
After hearing Du Jun's words, Mu Lianlong was not angry, but laughed and asked: "What else?"
Du Jun asked strangely: "What else?"
"Didn't she say that she is a woman who is unwilling to share her husband with others?" Mu Lianlong continued to ask with a smile. Seeing that Du Jun did not answer, he smiled and said, "Actually, I have already guessed the result. It's just that
I wanted to see if this woman who had been separated for a few days still had the same personality as the one I met first. As expected, she was just as I thought, a stubborn woman who kept her principles in mind at all times.
"Enter." After Mu Lianlong said this, he laughed boldly. His previous stern expression disappeared and he became so approachable and kind.
Du Jun did not expect that the always serious emperor would laugh because of Miss Xia, and surprisingly he understood the reason. He couldn't help but feel ashamed in his heart. It seems that Miss Xia and the emperor are the real couple. The two of them are actually
They understand each other's feelings so well.
"Your Majesty, what should we do next?" Du Jun then asked.
Mu Lianlong slowly suppressed his smile and gradually turned into contemplation. Even though he could guess the outcome, even though he was now the emperor who was less than one person and more than ten thousand people, he had to do what he liked to do.
There was still a big bond, so doubts gradually appeared on his face.
Seeing Mu Lianlong's gloom and gloom, Du Jun leaned over again and said, "Your Majesty, the common people have an idea. Is it feasible?"
"Oh, if you have any idea, please tell me quickly." Mu Lianlong looked down upon the scholar in front of him, but he didn't expect that at this time, he would actually say that he still had something to do.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Traditionally, when a new emperor ascends the throne, he will establish a queen in the harem. However, the Emperor has not established a queen for the time being. He must have other plans." When Du Jun said this, he paused deliberately.
Mu Lianlong smiled contemptuously at him, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"The common people dare not question why the emperor did not establish a queen. Instead, they want to tell the emperor that if there is no queen today, they can fill the harem and put psychological pressure on all the imperial concubines. In this way, no matter which imperial concubine it is,
Everyone will come to please you, and no one will object. Take this opportunity to send Miss Xia to the palace as a concubine. As for who the emperor wants to give the position of queen to in the future, he can decide by himself. There will never be any
Any worries." Du Jun's words completely awakened Mu Lianlong.
Du Jun's idea is not impossible, but a feasible method. He immediately smiled and looked at him and said: "Well said, this is a very good idea. Du Jun heard the announcement, I specially made you the prefect of the capital. This matter
It's up to you to handle the matter. Remember, you must do it beautifully for me at this time and don't make any mistakes."
Du Jun was frightened and did not expect that the emperor would actually give him an official position and go to supervise the matter in person. He was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank him. Mu Liaolong waved his hand, "Okay, you go down, I have to go to court in the morning.
"After that, he walked outside.
Du Jun was in a trance at this time, as if he was in a dream. He could not imagine this. Just because of his idea, he got the official position he dreamed of. However, he had studied for more than ten years and had never been in high school. But now he was
Such a chance coincidence fulfilled me, and I was immediately overjoyed.
The eunuch on the side saw how excited Du Jun was, so he walked over and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Du on being appointed as the prefect of the capital. I will go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs with you to report! By the way, I will register your official status."
Du Jun nodded repeatedly and handed all the money in his waist to the eunuch, "Thank you, father-in-law." The eunuch smiled and nodded, leading the way and said: "Sir, please come this way!"
Du Jun happily followed him towards the Ministry of Personnel. When he arrived at the Ministry of Personnel, he applied for official registration, received the official office and official seal, and then walked into the Yamen of Kyoto in a grand manner.
When the people under his command saw that the governor of the capital had arrived, they all quickly stood up to greet him, lined the streets to greet him, and followed Du Jun fearfully. At this time, Du Jun was extremely majestic.
But he knew very well in his heart that although he had obtained this position now, he could not make any mistakes. If he was not careful, the head on his neck might move and enter the officialdom. He understood the darkness here better than anyone else. He went to Beijing before.
For exams, just listen to the articles in this article.
Du Jun did not dare to inform Xia Ziying because he was afraid that Xia Ziying's whereabouts would be revealed because of him. Xia Ziying was now his talisman. Without her, he would not be where he is today, so the first priority was to protect Xia Ziying's
life safety.
Then they arranged for people to go to various prefectures and counties to deliver the emperor's imperial edict, asking each place to select the women from the prefectures and counties as soon as possible and send them to Kyoto as soon as possible. The emperor's selection of concubines would be heard all over the world.
That day, Ling'er went out to buy some things and ran back in a panic. When she arrived at the house, she shouted to Xia Ziying, "Sister, no... okay, the emperor wants..." Ling'er because
I was running too fast on the road and my speech was a bit slurred.
"Don't be anxious, tell me slowly, what's going on?" Xia Ziying saw that Ling'er was so anxious, and knew that the matter must be serious, and looked at her nervously. Ling'er calmed down for a moment, covered her heart and said: "The Emperor is in Mu
The country posted a notice saying that the whole country was required to select a concubine."
"Choose a concubine?" Xia Ziying asked in surprise.
"Sister, didn't the Emperor promise you that he would take you back in person? Why did he choose a concubine with such a big fanfare? Doesn't this clearly mean that he no longer wants you? Is it because we rejected Du Jun's request last time that the Emperor decided to do so?
I'm so cruel, let me give you some clues." Ling'er guessed wildly, while Xia Ziying's heart was as confused as a hemp rope.
"Stop talking, Linger, let me be quiet." Xia Ziying's eyes were red and she said to Linger sadly.
"Sister, are you just going to give up like this?" Ling'er asked in confusion.
"I asked you to stop talking. Did you hear me? I have my own plans for my affairs, so don't worry about me." Xia Ziying really didn't want to speak and shouted with anger in her tone.
"Okay, Ling'er won't say anything anymore. I hope the emperor doesn't really want to give up on my sister." Ling'er said and sat quietly on the other side.
Suddenly, the whole room fell into a silence, so quiet that even the gasping could be heard. Ling'er saw that Xia Ziying was turning her back to him, looking quietly at the dressing mirror. She didn't know what she was looking at in the mirror. Could it be that
Is there another person in the mirror?
"Dong dong..." Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
Ling'er and Xia Ziying were startled, and their bodies trembled for a moment. After Ling'er looked at Xia Ziying, she ran over and asked in front of the door: "Who is it?"
"My master asked me to deliver a letter to Miss Xia, saying that if she reads the letter, she will understand what happened. It is inconvenient for him to come here by himself, so I ask for your forgiveness," said a voice outside the door.
"Who is your adult?" Ling'er asked warily.
"My lord's surname is Du, and I know him." The man outside the door was not ambiguous at all, he spoke so straightforwardly.
Ling'er and Xia Ziying looked at each other, nodded, opened the door, and saw a man in gray and black clothes standing at the door. After flashing in, he took out a letter from his chest and handed it to
Linger.
Ling'er looked at it and handed it to Xia Ziying. The man turned around and left. Before leaving, he also asked: "My lord told you to move around as little as possible. He is trying to figure out a way. Once the matter is settled,
I'll come and pick you up." After saying that, before they could ask, they had already walked out of the door and turned around to leave.
After the man left, Xia Ziying opened the envelope and handed it to Ling'er, "Ling'er, come and take a look!"
Ling'er picked up the letter paper and read it over. The reading was bumpy, but he finally understood the meaning. Du Jun said in his heart that the emperor was also very depressed because Xia Ziying could not enter the palace, so he immediately came up with the idea.
One way is to select girls from all over the country to enter the palace to fill the harem, and then wait for an opportunity to arrange Xia Ziying into the palace, enter the palace in a grand manner, and then select her as the imperial concubine. Now he has been appointed as the prefect by the emperor and is fully supervising this matter.
For the time being, I will wait and see with peace of mind. When the time is right, I will send Xia Ziying to the palace to reunite with the emperor.
