Gu Mo is now being targeted by the concubines in the harem.
Although he has no real power, he is still an emperor. For these harem concubines, being favored is still their current goal. M.
But in the past, they were all more Buddhist, and they did not perform palace scheming every three days like in some palace battle dramas.
Speaking more carefully, the concubines in ancient times were more like colleagues than love rivals.
It seems that they are serving the same husband, but in fact they are serving the same boss. Although there is competition, it is really not to the point of life and death. After all, there are so many women in the palace, can they fight?
Most of the time, they were bored, drinking tea, cracking melon seeds, playing mahjong, and chatting about various gossips in the palace.
The reason why she was so active this time was probably because the queen didn't quite believe that she was really dying and encouraged the concubines to come.
In order to attract her attention, the concubines also resorted to various tricks. Today I saw a certain concubine flapping butterflies in the imperial garden, and tomorrow I heard a certain concubine's natural voice by the river. For Gu Mo, every day was a top-notch audio-visual enjoyment.
So every time she accepted the order, when she saw a concubine performing a talent, she would drag her to the Yangxin Hall and let her perform there for three days and three nights.
The concubines kept complaining, but when word spread outside, it became their unfailing favor, so the unsuspecting concubines continued to follow each other, trying their best to compete for favor.
Later, Gu Mo got tired of seeing the talents, so he started taking the concubines to the Yangxin Hall to play mahjong.
The concubines thought it was their turn to be favored, but when they went to the Yangxin Hall, they found other concubines sitting in the room, all with strange expressions.
Gu Mo took out a sack, poured it on the table, and said, "We are all here, concubines! Have you brought money today?"
The concubines looked green. They said they were short of money, could Gu Mo listen?
The new concubine was dragged to the mahjong table for unknown reasons. She worked hard at the beginning, causing Gu Mo to mess around a lot.
Until all the valuable jewelry on her body was taken away by Gu Mohu, Gu Mo asked her maid to go back and continue to get money.
The new concubine, "..."
Only then did I realize that the emperor really just wanted to play mahjong with her...
So the emperor may really be inhumane...
The new concubine and the other concubines looked at each other, and everyone understood.
They didn't want to fight, but they couldn't. The emperor got into the mood and had to fight.
The concubines were speechless. In the end, even the jewelry at the bottom of the box was taken away by Gu Mo Ying. Nothing could be done, so Gu Mo finally let them go.
In addition to playing mahjong, Gu Mo also transformed into a storyteller and told folk stories in the palace. Every time, he attracted a large number of noble concubines to watch and reward him.
Relying on these skills, Gu Mo made a lot of money, and then he turned around and took the pile of gold and silver jewelry to Lingxi.
"This is the dowry prepared by my father for you."
Hey, as long as she is an emperor with real power, she will not make money from the concubines in the harem.
Lingxi was so moved that she said, "Lingxi doesn't want to get married. Lingxi will always be his father's daughter..."
Gu Mo said without thinking, "It's okay if you don't want to get married. When the time comes, I will open a house for you, and you can snatch all the good-looking men in the world to show your face, and you can be as happy as you want."
Lingxi burst into tears and threw herself into Gu Mo's arms, "Father, you are so kind to me..."
She was still holding the golden book in her hand, and this hit almost gave Gu Mo a heart attack.
She quickly patted Lingxi on the back and pushed her away, "Then if my father fights with Jiu Qiansui, who will you help?"
Lingxi looked at Gu Mo's chubby face and chubby body, and then thought of the 9,000-year-old figure of a heavenly being, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
Gu Mo immediately placed Wei Fengqing's ghostly portrait in front of Lingxi. Lingxi's tiger body trembled, "Of course I'm helping my father!"
Gu Mo sighed inwardly, walked out with his hands behind his back, walked to the door, and then turned around and said, "Well, what a coincidence, even if you want to keep a good face, you still have to adhere to the principle of your love and my will. It's wrong to rob a good woman and a man.
"
Gu Mo then called all the concubines together. They thought she was up to something sexy and didn't want to come.
Gu Mo sent people to invite them one by one. When everyone arrived, she coughed and said seriously, "The Queen must have told you, I can't be humane anymore."
Concubines, "...?!!""
Amidst dozens of confused and shocked faces, Gu Mo continued to speak calmly.
"I really can't bear to continue to waste your youth. I called you here today just to tell you that if you want to leave the palace, you can tell me at any time. I will give you a severance package and you can go back to your parents' home.
Whether you open a house and set up a household by yourself, or get married again, I will send someone to handle it for you."
The concubines looked at each other, stunned by Gu Mo's benevolent act.
Your Majesty is indeed a rare good man. He has always been like this. He treats others with tolerance and humility. They, the concubines, never need to be trembling in front of him. As long as they don't make big mistakes, he basically won't care.
Now I can no longer be humane, but I am still willing to send them out of the palace. There is no such good man in the world.
However, when they saw the severance package Gu Mo gave them, their emotions were shattered into pieces.
A concubine had a mocking face.
"Take what you win from us and give it to us as severance pay. Your Majesty, you are really good at business."
"Hey, I am poor, so I can only be poor again. Let's work together and understand each other."
The concubine rolled her eyes, took her things and left.
So did the other concubines, and some even snorted at Gu Mo.
Gu Mo was not angry and asked the young eunuch to write down all their requests so that they could be properly arranged according to their requirements.
After all, these are all women from the original body, and some of them still gave birth to children for the original body. They cannot be allowed to remain widows in the palace, but they cannot be allowed to leave the palace and find a way out for themselves, right?
Gu Mo dismissed a bunch of concubines, so the harem was naturally empty, and there was no need for so many palace servants to serve him. He also dismissed a bunch of palace servants, which greatly reduced the burden on the palace.
When the queen learned that the palace was empty, she was dumbfounded and had no idea what Gu Mo was doing.
From ancient times to the present, which emperor is not from the Three Palaces and Sixth Court? He was good and dismissed all the concubines. Is he still worried that others would not know that he was inhumane?
"Why did your Majesty do this?"
Gu Mo looked affectionate, "Because I only have the queen in my heart, and I just want to enjoy a monogamous life with the queen."
Queen Zhou was looked at by Gu Mo's affectionate eyes, and she forgot to react for a moment.
Gu Mo grabbed her hand and said, "Queen, let bygones be bygones. I don't want to waste my time with you because I care about little things. After all, we are not young anymore."
