Zhenliang sat motionless and silently in the tub, letting the hot water in the tub cover his upper body, but even though there were flowers and leaves floating in the warm water, it still couldn't cover up those ambiguous and conspicuous traces.
Aunt Hu smiled and complimented, "I have never heard of any empress that the emperor has favored so much. Congratulations to the empress."
Another nanny Li immediately agreed, "Yes, I have served many empresses in bathing, but I have never seen any empress with such eye-catching marks left by the emperor on her body. I am so lucky."
The pouting Jin Ye finally understood something, and suddenly his pretty face turned red. He was amazed in his heart, thinking to himself, could these marks on the empress' body be made by the emperor? Why did the emperor bully the empress like that? These two
Mammies are so strange. They said that the empress was so lucky despite being bullied by the emperor. Isn’t this nonsense? Looking at Yinye’s enigmatic look, the two mamas don’t seem to be talking nonsense? Oh, it’s really annoying.
Puzzling.
Zhenliang glared at Yinye who couldn't help but snicker at her, blaming her for talking too much.
She is not afraid that these two nuns will spread her embarrassing story. If it spreads, her reputation will be ruined, which may speed up the process of her leaving the palace. Well, now, her reputation has not only recovered, but also improved.
The situation is really over.
Zhenliang took the napkin from Jinye's hand to wipe her body, wiped it vigorously on the places with hickeys on her chest a few times, and said with a cold face, "Mommy, don't listen to Yinye's nonsense, I
All these marks on my body were scratched and bitten by a nasty rat."
"Hehehe..." Hearing this, except for Zhenliang herself, the other four people all laughed in disbelief, assuming that she was shy.
Only Jin Ye could barely understand what Zhenliang felt. The young lady was bullied by the emperor. Naturally, she would be unhappy and would not admit it. Naturally, she wanted to compare the emperor to a mouse. However, the young lady was too courageous to dare to do so.
The two nuns called the emperor a mouse in front of him. If these words reached the emperor's ears, would there be serious consequences? Oh, this is really worrying.
Yinye leaned close to Zhenliang's ear and teased, "Miss, I understand. I heard that the emperor's zodiac sign happens to be rat, hahaha."
Zhenliang glared at her again and began to close his eyes. He leaned against the tub and closed his eyes to rest, with an indifferent look that no one could understand.
Aunt Li said that the new concubine must soak for an hour, so the cold water in the bathtub was scooped out from time to time, and new hot water was added in time.
When there was still half an hour to go, Aunt Hu, who came in with hot water, ran to the tub with a look of joy on her face and called softly, "Ms. Concubine Liang?"
"Huh?" Zhenliang answered softly without falling asleep.
Aunt Hu was sure that Zhenliang was not asleep, so she couldn't help but said with joy, "When I went out just now, I happened to meet Eunuch Jiao who came to send a message. According to the emperor's wishes, Concubine Liang has been appointed to sleep with me tonight.
I would like to congratulate you, my wife."
Hearing this, Grandma Li also looked happy and quickly congratulated her, "Congratulations to the Queen."
Jinye and Yinye also had happy smiles on their faces at first, but when they caught a glimpse of Zhenliang's face suddenly turning cold, they immediately looked at each other and hurriedly stopped their smiles in a tacit understanding, even though they knew that if the young lady had the chance to sleep with her, she would be the recipient.
However, if the young lady is unhappy, no matter how majestic the emperor is, they will still choose to stand by the young lady to defend him.
The young lady had a peaceful expression just now, but now it was full of gloom. Even if the two maids didn't know the specific reason, they could understand her unwillingness to sleep with her.
Zhenliang's displeased eyes slowly opened, looking at Aunt Hu in disbelief, and said, "Is this serious?"
Aunt Hu thought that Concubine Liang was overjoyed and could not believe her reaction, so she quickly repeated with a smile, "Seriously, seriously, Eunuch Jiao said that the Emperor hopes that Concubine Liang will attend his bedside, and there is no need to turn off the lights."
When Eunuch Jiao came to deliver the message, the two nuns did not fully believe the emperor's favor for Concubine Liang. It was not until Eunuch Jiao passed the message that they fully believed that Concubine Liang was indeed favored by the emperor, just as the silver leaves had said.
That joke was because the emperor had an uncontrollable desire for his empress, so he hurriedly asked her to sleep with him on the first day he entered the palace.
Empress Liang Fei has always covered her face with a veil. They have not had the chance to see her true face, but even if they have not seen it, they believe that Empress Liang Fei is indeed as ugly as the rumors say, but so what?
?In the eyes of a man like the emperor, a woman’s appearance is not the only criterion that he recognizes as good or bad.
In the eyes of the two experienced nuns, the reason why the ugly-looking Concubine Liang was favored by the emperor was because of her seductive figure.
Concubine Liang's figure is so beautiful that even women would praise her and feel ashamed.
Perhaps this is the justice of God, which gave Concubine Liang a flawless body but gave her an appearance that she was ashamed to see others.
"No need to turn off the lights? What does this mean?" Zhenliang asked in confusion.
Aunt Li quickly explained, "The emperor has set an unwritten rule for the ladies to sleep in. On the night when the queen is sleeping in bed, the bedroom must be dark, no lights are allowed, and no talking is allowed. The emperor will leave before the second watch, and the queen is not allowed to
He uses various means to entangle people. In other words, the emperor doesn’t like to stay in ladies’ bedrooms all night, and he has never made any exceptions.”
Hearing this, Zhenliang and Jinye Yinye opened their mouths in shock. What kind of rule is this?
Yinye couldn't help but ask, "What will happen if any empress breaks the rules?"
Grandma Li replied sternly, "The only one who can break the rules is the Emperor. If any empress breaks the rules, she will most likely end up in the cold palace and never be able to stand out."
Yin Ye curled her lips and said with a playful smile, "How is it possible for a man to love a woman without making any noise? Aunt Li, Aunt Hu, do you think it's possible?"
The two nuns both blushed. They were in the same mood as Zhenliang. They both stared at the experienced Yinye in surprise. How could this sound like what a yellow-flowered girl would say?
However, there were no restrictions in the boudoir, and Nanny Li felt that Yinye's question was equivalent to Concubine Liang's question. Since Yinye could ask such a straightforward question, there was no need for her, an old woman, to be embarrassed.
Aunt Hu's face is much thinner than that of Aunt Li. Although these nuns have never had sex with men, they do not understand the affairs between men and women. Seeing that Aunt Li is getting more and more outrageous, she is afraid that the emperor will find out and blame her.
, quickly changed the subject and said, "For a long time, ladies and gentlemen have always been in the dark when sleeping, even the queen is no exception. But today, the emperor has ordered that there is no need to light the lamp. This is a favor that no other queen can ask for, but the queen wants it."
I cherish it very much.”
Zhenliang's hands soaked in the water secretly clenched into fists and squeezed tighter and tighter. He lowered his eyes and looked at the water and said softly, "If I don't want to sleep with you, can you find a reason to refuse?"
Aunt Hu looked at Zhenliang's low-brow expression and thought it was her shy little daughter's attitude as a young child. She happily comforted her, "Don't panic, Concubine Liang. After this first night, it will be over soon."
You'll get used to it. I'm afraid your Majesty still doesn't know that the emperor's taking a concubine and letting someone sleep with you are completely different things. He can make you a concubine, but he can not let you sleep with him for many years, but you are destined to be his only in this life.
Woman. Concubine Liang was given the opportunity to sleep with her on the first day she entered the palace. This is an honor that no other empress has ever enjoyed. I just want to be happy."
Grandma Li, who was scooping water on the side, agreed with Grandma Hu's words and kept smiling and nodding. Only the two of them, Gold Leaf and Silver Leaf, followed Zhenliang and frowned, feeling unhappy in their hearts.
Even though they know how to be favored, since the young lady is unhappy, they don't want her to force herself.
The water in the bathtub was kept at the right temperature, but it was really cold but it felt like it was getting colder and colder. He ordered, "Add more hot water."
Little did she know that her heart was too cold, which affected her body.
From time to time, cups of cold water were scooped out, and hot water was continuously added to the tub. Zhenliang closed his eyes again and remained silent.
She thought of the moment in the hot spring pool when she was oppressed by Nangong Lie and was about to be broken by him. She did not hesitate to slander her innocence and reputation in order for him to let her go. As long as she was in the palace
By staying here, he could never touch her body.
But she never thought that what she escaped was only for a moment, and she would face the fate of sleeping in bed tonight.
She really couldn't understand what the man Nangong Lie was thinking.
He clearly knew that she was unclean and deeply disliked her. In that case, why did he still let her sleep with him? And he also broke the rules that other women had not broken, so he didn't have to turn off the lights?
Could it be that for the sake of his dear aunt, for the sake of the illustrious General Yuchi, he, a dignified and dignified man, had to compromise with such an ugly and unclean person like her?
She felt that he was not that kind of man, but judging from his actions, it seemed that he was.
Seeing that Zhenliang's face was getting worse and worse, Jin Ye was afraid that she would be frozen, so he said, "My dear, the hour is up, get up."
Zhenliang opened her eyes, like a wooden person without any ideas, and let the four people wait on her silently until she was fully dressed.
This was the first time that Zhenliang put on a gorgeous palace costume, and won everyone's praise. However, Zhenliang didn't seem to hear it, and just responded with a slight smile that didn't look like a smile.
After the two nuns left, Jin Ye took off the kerchief on Zhenliang's face, preparing to persuade her to wipe off the red rouge on her face. But when she took it off, she found that Zhenliang's face was clean.
The bright red rouge has disappeared.
Therefore, Jin Ye was in a good mood and quickly helped Zhenliang wash his face.
Ginye's face was full of worries, but because Zhenliang was also thinking about his thoughts, he didn't notice anything unusual about Ginye's face.
However, Jinye sensed Yinye's weirdness, slapped Yinye's arm, and asked softly, "What are you thinking about?"
Yinye forced a smile and said, "I'm thinking about how to help the queen solve her problems."
Jinye naturally knew what worries and difficulties Zhenliang was facing at this moment. He rolled his eyes at Yinye and said, "I'm afraid you can only be like me, full of ambition but not strong enough."
Yinye curled his lips with an ominous expression, "Not necessarily."
