Eight hundred and twentieth seventh chapter planting good cause
Liu Xiu arranged for several dancers who were sent to the palace by Liu Liang to be in Yutang Palace.
To the south of Changqiu Palace is Age, and to the east of Age is Yutang Palace. The two places are very close to each other.
Originally, Yutang Palace was empty, but now a few women suddenly moved in, and Changqiu Palace naturally got the news.
Guo Shengtong called Nanny Feng and asked, "What's going on at Yutang Palace? I heard that someone has moved in?"
Aunt Feng was about to say this, but when she heard Guo Shengtong asked about it, she found an opportunity to speak. Aunt Feng sighed and said, "Oh, Queen, actually this matter is all the fault of King Zhao..."
Guo Shengtong clicked his tongue and said displeasedly: "Mommy, be careful what you say!"
Aunt Feng patted her mouth and whispered with an apologetic smile: "Queen, I heard that in order to please Your Majesty, King Zhao bought five young and beautiful dancers outside the palace and sent them to the palace. Your Majesty, don't you?"
It was easy to refuse, so I accepted them and temporarily settled them in Yutang Palace."
After hearing this, Guo Shengtong slowly nodded and said, "So that's it." She frowned and said, "Uncle, too. How can a woman from outside the palace be sent into the palace casually? Anyone can be in the palace."
Did you get in?"
Aunt Feng echoed: "Who says it's not the case? King Zhao is really old and confused!"
Guo Shengtong stood up and said: "Let's go! Let's go to Yutang Palace to see what kind of women can make King Zhao send them to the palace and present them to His Majesty!"
Aunt Feng responded and specially brought a few strong and powerful palace maids with her. Guo Shengtong took a look and said nothing more.
Yutang Palace is very close to Changqiu Palace, and it takes less than a cup of tea to walk there. Outside Yutang Palace, there are tiger and Ben army guards. Seeing the Queen before and after them, all the Tiger and Ben guards bowed respectfully and said in unison: "Queen
!”
Guo Shengtong waved to everyone and stepped into the gate of Yutang Palace.
If others want to enter, the Huben Guards may stop them, but when the Queen comes in, they dare not stop her.
Guo Shengtong took Nanny Feng and several maids into the Yutang Palace. The scale of Yutang Palace is relatively large, even compared with Changqiu Palace and West Palace, it is not much different.
When they heard that the queen was coming, the five women who were placed here hurriedly came out of the hall to greet her. They all knelt down, kowtowed forward, and said in unison: "My maid, pay homage to the queen!"
Guo Shengtong glanced around the crowd, and all of them were dressed in bright clothes, wearing gold and silver. Seeing this, Guo Shengtong was already dissatisfied. She walked over in front of the girls and casually said: "Get up, everyone!"
"
"Thank you, Queen!" The five ladies stood up one after another, looked at each other, and each of them lowered their heads, not daring to breathe, and followed Guo Shengtong into the main hall.
After Guo Shengtong came in, he looked around and said with a gloomy face: "This Yutang Palace is not your palace. You are only staying in Yutang Palace temporarily now. Don't make this place a mess!"
In fact, the layout and furnishings in Yutang Palace have not changed much. Guo Shengtong simply did not like them.
The five women who had just entered the hall knelt on their knees again and cautiously responded: "My maid knows my mistake!"
"Huh!" Guo Shengtong glanced at them, walked to the main seat in the center, and knelt down slowly. She said slowly: "You all, raise your heads and let me take a look!"
The five girls hesitated for a moment, then raised their heads one after another, but their eyes were lowered, and they did not dare to look at Guo Shengtong.
Guo Shengtong looked from left to right, and the more he looked, the more angry he became. What did King Zhao mean? Did he think that His Majesty did not have enough concubines, so he specially found such a group of young and beautiful women to enter the palace to compete for his favor?
When she saw the last woman, Luo You, she couldn't help but tremble. Among these five women, Luo You's appearance was undoubtedly the most outstanding.
Willow's curved eyebrows, apricot eyes, small nose, straight and cute, and bright red lips, like ripe cherries, even if a woman saw him, she couldn't help but feel the urge to kiss her.
Seeing Luo You's face, the anger in Guo Shengtong's stomach almost reached the top of his head. "Liu Liang, Liu Liang, there is already a Yin Lihua in the harem. Now it's better for you to get another one who looks similar to Yin Lihua."
woman!
She asked expressionlessly: "What's your name?"
The five women kneeling on the ground looked at each other, wondering who Guo Shengtong was asking. They slowly raised their heads and saw Guo Shengtong glaring at Luo You intently. "I am asking for your name!"
Luo You quickly kowtowed forward and said, "My name is Luo You!"
Guo Shengtong narrowed his eyes and was silent for a while. Then she changed the topic and asked: "I came to Yutang Palace, don't you know how to serve tea?"
Just as the girls were about to get up, Guo Shengtong pointed at Luo You and said, "Let Luo You make tea for me!"
"Yes! Queen!" Luo You agreed, stood up, and went to the dining room to boil water and make tea. Not long after, she walked in from the outside carrying a tray with a steaming cup of tea in it.
She came to Guo Shengtong, knelt on the ground, held the tray in both hands, handed it forward, and whispered: "Queen, please have some tea!"
Guo Shengtong looked at Luo You's face with flickering eyes, and slowly stretched out his hand. The moment her fingertips touched the tea cup, she took it back blankly as if she had been electrocuted.
Then, she said angrily: "You brave bitch, do you want to burn me to death?" While speaking, Guo Shengtong waved her hand outwards, and her hand hit the tray. The tray was turned up and placed on it.
The tea cup flew straight towards Luo You's cheek.
Luo You couldn't help but exclaimed. If she was hit by the tea cup, all the hot tea would be spilled on her face, and her face would be completely ruined.
At the critical moment, Luo You hurriedly turned to the side, and the teacup almost flew past her ear, and fell to the ground with a snap.
Although her dodge was fast and timely, a few drops of tea spilled from the cup still splashed on her face and neck. Luo You groaned in pain and collapsed on the ground, her hands trembling.
He held his cheeks and sides of his neck nervously.
He hid quite quickly! Guo Shengtong sneered in his heart, stood up, glared down at Luo You, and said: "You dare to be disrespectful to me, this humble servant. Today, I will let you know what the rules of the palace are!"
As she spoke, she turned her head and said, "Mother Feng!"
"Old slave is here!" Aunt Feng quickly came to Guo Shengtong and saluted. Guo Shengtong's expression was as cold as ice, and he raised his head and said: "Go to the dining room and bring the boiled water!"
"Old slave, I obey!" Aunt Feng turned around and walked out without saying a word.
Luo You was so frightened that he sweated profusely. He quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed forward repeatedly, and said urgently: "Queen, please forgive me! Queen, please forgive me!"
The other four women were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they knelt down, kowtowed, and begged for mercy. Guo Shengtong looked at Luo You with evil eyes. Looking at her, it was as if he was seeing the second Yin Lihua. Guo Shengtong's eyes were full of violence.
gas.
It didn't take long for Nanny Feng to come in from outside carrying a large pot of boiling water. She directed the maids on both sides to hold Luo You down together, and then she carried the pot and came to Luo You and asked her.
He deliberately shook the kettle above her head and said harshly: "You have a foxy face! You entered the palace just to confuse His Majesty, right?!"
As she spoke, she looked up at Guo Shengtong. At this time, the latter's expression had returned to calmness and he sat back on the couch, completely acting as if the matter had nothing to do with her. Aunt Feng was the person next to Guo Shengtong.
Naturally knowing what she was thinking, Nanny Feng looked at Luo You who was pinned to the ground by several palace maids, and muttered in her heart: If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for your misfortune. Who gave you such a charming face!
Thinking of this, Nanny Feng made a move to pour the boiling water on Luo You's head. At this moment, someone outside suddenly shouted loudly: "Stop!"
This sudden voice startled Grandma Feng, and she involuntarily took a step back. When she raised her eyes and looked outside, she saw Yin Lihua, Xueying, and Li Xiu'e walking over with a red note.
That voice just now was exactly what Li Xiu'e shouted.
Yin Lihua walked into the hall, first she looked at Luo You who was pinned to the ground by the palace maids and could not move, then she looked at Guo Shengtong who frowned and looked at her. She saluted and said, "I have seen the queen!"
"So it's Yin Guiren! Get married!" Speaking of Liu Xiu's official wives, there are only Guo Shengtong and Yin Lihua. As the queen, Guo Shengtong is the queen. If there is anyone in the harem who is afraid of someone, it is Yin Lihua.
It was a coincidence that Yin Lihua came to Yutang Palace this time. Today, Yin Lihua went to Dongguan to visit Long Yuan who was recovering from his injuries in Dongguan. When she came back, she happened to pass by Yutang Palace.
If there were only five Luoyou girls in Yutang Palace, she would not come in. However, after hearing from the nearby Tiger Guards that the Queen was inside, Yin Lihua could not pretend to be passing by without knowing anything. Out of etiquette, she still came in and asked the Queen.
Please say hello.
As a result, as soon as she entered Yutang Palace, she happened to see Aunt Feng about to burn Luo You's face with boiling water. Before Yin Lihua could say anything, Li Xiu'e beside her couldn't help but yelled to stop Aunt Feng.
Yin Lihua was not a nosy person, but if something like this happened to her, she couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb. She looked at Luo You and asked, "Queen, I wonder who this girl is?"
Guo Shengtong smiled calmly and said: "Her name is Luo You, and she is one of the five dancers sent to the palace by the emperor's uncle!"
Aunt Feng answered from the side: "Yin Guiren doesn't know something. Just now Luo You bumped into the queen, so I have to punish her now!"
After hearing what she said, Li Xiu'e was so angry that her eyes were about to burst into flames. A little punishment? She has to pour a pot of boiling water on Luo You's head. This is also called a little punishment? This is actually killing someone!
Yin Lihua remained calm and said slowly: "Queen, these five women are dedicated to Your Majesty by the Emperor's uncle. If there is something wrong with them in the palace, Your Majesty may not be able to explain it to the Emperor's uncle."
Guo Shengtong wanted to punish Luo You, but he really couldn't let many people know about it in a big way, let alone His Majesty. Now that Yin Lihua had revealed it, Guo Shengtong had no choice but to give up.
But Guo Shengtong was really unwilling to let Luo You go like this. After all, for her, Luo You was likely to become another new threat after Yin Lihua, Xu Xiling, and Xi Cheying.
She stood up, walked to Yin Lihua, leaned close to her ear, and whispered in a low voice: "Yin Gui, please take a look at this Luo You's appearance. Her face is preserved, and she has nothing to do with you or me."
The good thing is, if her face is ruined, you and I can sit back and relax!"
After hearing her words, Yin Lihua looked at Luo You subconsciously. It was only then that she took a closer look at Luo You's appearance. Yin Lihua also didn't expect that Luo You turned out to be such a beautiful girl. She was only twenty-eight years old.
Gold carvings are like jade carvings.
She has always been confident in her appearance, but after meeting Luo You, even Yin Lihua's confidence became a little less.
In terms of facial features, Luo You is not as good as Yin Lihua, but she is not far behind. More importantly, she is young, which is enough to make up for her slightly inferior appearance.
Seeing Yin Lihua looking at Luo You in a daze, thinking that she was moved by his words, Guo Shengtong curled up his lips and said: "No one will know about her disposal now, and your Majesty will not know about it. In this huge palace, no one will know."
How much trouble will be caused by the lack of a maidservant? As for the emperor's uncle, he is a smart man and will not pursue this matter."
In Guo Shengtong's eyes, dealing with a maid is like squeezing an insect to death, it is not a big deal at all.
Yin Lihua withdrew her gaze, took a deep look at Guo Shengtong, and said: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing! What's more, the queen and the concubine are both pregnant. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the child in your belly.
For your own sake.”
The implication is that you should accumulate more yin virtue. Even if you don’t accumulate virtue for yourself, you should accumulate virtue for the child who is about to be born, so as to avoid retribution on your child in the future!
After speaking, Yin Lihua looked at Luo You again, turned around and walked out.
