Because of Liu Qingluan's matter, Master Du knelt down in front of Pei Yuan without saying anything.
"Greetings to the prince and concubine, it was the lower official who failed to restrain Liu Qingluan and caused trouble to the prince. Please punish him."
These beauties from Kyoto have to listen to Lord Du's arrangements on the way, but Liu Qingluan has a special status, and Lord Du dare not take care of Liu Qingluan at all.
Now Liu Qingluan is causing trouble, and Prince Zhan wants to hold him accountable, so he can only be beaten obediently.
Master Du was kneeling on the ground, his beard and eyebrows trembling nervously.
Lin Jiao was sitting aside and was worried about Mr. Du. Mr. Du was already over fifty years old and his hair had turned white. It was really difficult for him.
"Master Du, there is no need to be like this. I know your difficulties and have no intention of blaming you."
Pei Yuan raised his hand and asked someone to help Master Du up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty..."
When Mr. Du heard Pei Yuan say that he was not to blame, he was so excited that he almost cried.
Great, his life was saved for the time being, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Pei Yuan say again: "It's just that Liu Qingluan came to Liangzhou with Lord Du after all. Now that she's gone, Lord Du, shouldn't he?"
Find her and bring her back to Kyoto?"
Lord Du understood immediately upon hearing this that the prince did not want to keep Liu Qingluan.
However, he could understand that Liu Qingluan was so capable of causing trouble. If it were him, he wouldn't want to leave the person behind.
"Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty should take Miss Liu back. Your Majesty will send someone to find Miss Liu. You must find her and take her away as soon as possible."
Mr. Du quickly promised.
Pei Yuan nodded, and then someone served tea to the group of people from Kyoto.
Then ask the steward to count the rewards issued by the court.
After all the gold and silver rewards were counted and handed over, but those beauties were left unattended, Mr. Du became a little unable to sit still.
"My lord, those beauties..."
"There is no shortage of maids in my palace. Master Du, please take these people back."
Pei Yuandao.
"this……"
Master Du glanced at Baiyi who was standing not far away from the corner of his eye, and pursed his lips in embarrassment. There was no one else he could take back, but the girl in Baiyi was in poor health. It would not be easy to survive to Liangzhou. If
If I go back like this, I'm afraid I'll die on the way.
"Your Majesty, these are gifts given to you by Your Majesty for your hard work in the war. If Your Majesty doesn't like them, why don't you keep them and let them be sweeping maids?"
They were all miserable women who could not help themselves. They had already suffered a lot on the road when they were sent to Liangzhou. If they were taken back again, their fate would probably be even worse.
Without waiting for Pei Yuan to refuse, he listened to Lin Jiao.
"Your Majesty, I think what Lord Du said is very reasonable. Since these girls have come to Liangzhou, it means they are destined to Liangzhou. I know that Your Majesty doesn't want to take them into the backyard. Why don't you ask Lord Du to ask these girls if
If they cannot become the prince's concubines and are still willing to stay in Liangzhou, let them stay, and the prince can make the decision to betroth them to others."
There are also a group of bachelors in the military camp.
If they both like each other, wouldn't that be good?
There is also a shortage of people in her workshop. It is not a problem to raise a few women, but the premise is that these women can stay voluntarily.
"I'll go and ask you now."
When Mr. Du saw Lin Jiao, the war princess, he felt that this princess was definitely not a bad person with her kind eyebrows and kind eyes. Now that he heard Lin Jiao say this, he felt that Lin Jiao had a good heart.
It would be the best thing if the princess could give these beauties a home.
"Master Du and I will go together."
Lin Jiao suddenly stood up. She just took a look at those beauties. One of them, a girl in white clothes, was particularly beautiful.
Lin Jiao was almost fascinated by it, but the girl seemed to be in poor health and her face was very pale.
Pei Yuan: "..."
Baiyi and the others were very anxious next to the gold, silver and jewelry as rewards.
Some anxious people couldn't help but say, "Sister Baiyi, these jewelry have been counted and taken away immediately. Why haven't we taken care of it yet?"
After all, this is related to their future, and everyone is very nervous.
Bai Yi was also very nervous. She didn't know how Prince Zhan would deal with them.
Although she asked someone to inquire and knew that Princess Zhan was a good person, she could not find out what kind of person Prince Zhan was. She only heard that Prince Zhan loved Princess Zhan very much.
If the prince doesn't want to keep them, asking Master Du to take them back would be the best result. He is afraid that Prince Zhan will be angry and throw them into the military camp to serve as military prostitutes.
Now that the vassals everywhere are rebelling, the emperor's power is no longer that great. Prince Zhan is the most powerful prince with military power. If he doesn't want to give the emperor face, the emperor will be angry at most and dare not do anything.
"We won't be thrown into the military camp to be military prostitutes, right?"
I don't know who said something, and everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
"Bah, bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm sure you can't."
Although they have been trained in Jiaofangsi since childhood, they were once daughters of good families, and they are still in perfect condition, and they all have fantasies about the future.
They don't seek great wealth, they only seek to meet a good person in this life, and peace and stability are enough.
"I definitely wouldn't have done it before, but Liu Qingluan pissed off Prince Zhan last night, and now he's missing. Will Prince Zhan take his anger out on us?"
"If I was thrown into the military camp, I would rather be killed right now."
The beauty in yellow said with red eyes.
Instead of living like an animal in the military camp, where life would be worse than death, it would be better to die now, at least in a clean way.
"It's all Liu Qingluan's fault. She is the daughter of the prime minister. If something happens to her, the most she can do is give her a lesson or be sent back to Kyoto.
We are the unlucky ones, what did we do wrong?"
"Who gave us bad luck?"
Ziyi smiled mockingly, her eyes full of determination, this world is too miserable, and she will not come back even if I beat her to death in the next life.
"Don't be so depressed, everyone. Things haven't reached such a bad point yet. Maybe the prince is willing to keep us?"
While everyone was talking, they saw Mr. Du coming towards us with Prince Zhan and the Princess. They were so frightened that they immediately stopped talking and stood obediently.
When Pei Yuan and Lin Jiao arrived, these beauties quickly bowed respectfully.
"Everyone, get up."
Lin Jiao looked at these beauties with a smile. It seemed that the emperor had really carefully chosen a woman for Pei Yuan. These beauties all had their own merits. Just looking at them made people feel happy and happy.
The beauties stood up and glanced quietly at the clasped hands of Pei Yuan and Lin Jiao. People in Liangzhou said that the prince and the princess had a good relationship. It seemed true.
Lin Jiao let go of Pei Yuan's hand, walked a few steps forward, and looked at these beauties with a gentle smile, "You have traveled thousands of miles from Kyoto to Liangzhou. You have worked hard all the way."
