Chapter 473 The pain of deceiving comes to an end 21
Put on shoes, put on clothes, wash your face. As soon as Xue Pinggui sat down, a cup of tea was handed over to him.
Xue Pinggui picked it up and took a sip, Longjing after the Rain, this year’s new tea. It was sent all the way to Xiliang, but it is a pity that it is late summer, and the new tea in spring has become half-aged tea now, and the taste is not as good as it was then.
Xining sat on the chair on the other side: "I have something to discuss with His Majesty."
"You're welcome, empress. Third sister is the queen. If you have anything to say, just ask the housekeeper to take care of it." Xue Pinggui always acted like a good husband.
Huh, it's really different from him. I don't know what Xiaodujichang is thinking.
Xining then said: "There are not many considerate maids in my concubine's palace. I would like to select a few more so that your majesty can come every day and serve him better."
Xue Pinggui's heart was shaken. The selection of palace maids was actually a trick. Those palace ladies were all there to "serve" him better. No matter how domineering Dai Zan is and he is prevented from drafting, then the queen can always choose a few maids, right?
So he asked: "How much do you want to add?"
"I don't know the rules of Xiliang. How many maids can the queen have?" Xining smiled and deliberately prolonged his voice: "How many do you think your majesty can have?"
Thinking of Linglong, who was becoming more and more considerate and interesting, Xue Pinggui held a cup of tea elegantly, holding the tea lid with his other hand, brushing a few buds still floating on it, and took a sip with lowered eyebrows and eyes. Swallow the tea together with the saliva that comes out of your mouth.
Putting down the tea cup, he replied without any surprise: "Xiliang doesn't have so many rules. The empress can add as many as she thinks are appropriate."
Xining glanced at it with a smile. The scumbag must have been happy for a long time, hoping for more.
So he said: "Then I will take care of it."
After Xue Pinggui said a few more casual words, he stood up, strode out with his hands behind his back, and drove to Qinzheng Hall.
As soon as Xue Pinggui left, Linglong knelt down, her charming big eyes filled with tears: "Why did the empress choose a palace maid? Do you think Linglong is not good? Linglong is loyal to the empress and has no second thoughts. Please don't rush me. Let’s go!”
Xining said warmly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I drive you away?"
Linglong opened her eyes wide with tears. She was really beautiful. When she smiled, she felt like a spring breeze. When she cried, she looked pitiful and pitiful: "Then why do you..."
Xining let Linglong stand up and asked her to come forward: "The king has been staying here for more than ten days. It seems that you may be pregnant. What do you think it would be like if you were pregnant?"
The exquisite jade-like teeth bit her lip tightly, almost breaking it.
What else can I do? Die! With the child in your belly, no matter how old it is, you will die together.
Xining continued: "But what if there are a few of the same ones and make things big?"
If there were three or four pregnant women, could it be that Dai Zan had torn away the mask of benevolence that he had kept for so long and killed them all? By then, it is guaranteed to be as famous as Wang Baochuan's heroic deeds of guarding the cold kiln for 18 years. A vicious and jealous woman Dai Zan came out of Xiliang and killed all the pregnant women who were sleeping with her.
Xi Ning said earnestly: "Linglong, in the palace, women are never in short supply. What you have to do now is to protect yourself, and you can't care about other women coming to compete for favor. No matter how much you fight, you can't win over the princess! As long as you can raise yourself A child who can become an idle prince or princess will have someone to rely on when he gets old. I really do this for your own good!" Linglong immediately knelt down and kowtowed, her voice choked with sobs: "Thank you, your Majesty, I am truly my reborn parent. I will repay your kindness by being a cow or a horse in the next life.”
Come on, she didn't know if there was a soul after death. Anyway, I can win over one person now!
Xining asked Linglong to stand up, took her hand, and patted her gently: "Take more rest in the future, don't think too much, wait for His Majesty to come and serve you well. Go!"
"Thank you, empress!" Linglong bowed her head and retreated.
Xining picked up the ginseng tea and took a long sip. Yes, let's do it this way, keep the scumbag and Dai Zan busy, so that she can have a chance...
Just do it, Xi Ning asked someone to report to the Chief Fu, saying that he wanted to choose a palace maid. But I don’t want to use what is already available in the palace. I want a woman from outside the palace, preferably from an official family. She was said to be a palace maid, but she was actually a personal companion, so she just stayed with her, playing chess, calligraphy, painting, and embroidering, chatting, and passing the time. After three years, she was released back home to get married.
Manager Fu reported it to Xue Pinggui. Xue Pinggui said that it was not good for the queen to spend all day weaving and farming. It would also be good to find a few courteous women to be arty, so it was settled immediately.
So an imperial decree was immediately passed down and a list was posted. Within ten days, the masters, queens and empresses in the Zhaoyang Palace were to choose palace maidens. All women aged 15 to 20 who had not yet left the palace could sign up. After serving the queen for three years, she will be rewarded with a dowry, choose a good family, and arrange the marriage.
This one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and those who opposed it believed that after all, he was entering the palace, and he would get married in three years. A woman cannot bear to wait and gets married too early. Three years later, even a 15-year-old has become 18, reaching the upper limit of the age for marriage.
And what many people want is to be rewarded with a dowry in three years and choose a good marriage. It is almost everyone's dream to be granted a marriage, and a woman who is granted a marriage can hold her head high in the man's family. The man will not divorce easily until the end. After all, it is a gift marriage.
There is even more inside information. I know that the king goes to Zhaoyangyuan to take a nap every afternoon. Then you will definitely be able to see the king in Zhaoyangyuan. Although Dai Zan was domineering, he was attracted by the king and became the master of a certain palace, which also benefited the family.
Concubine De, Concubine Xian, and four beauties, who among the family members has not been promoted?
In the face of family interests, sacrificing a daughter is nothing!
While the whole family was discussing, only two days later, another news suddenly came. Three years is changed to one year, and the maximum is two years.
Only a year or two? Damn it, if you run for election, you can get in no matter what, that’s a huge opportunity!
Putting any hesitation behind, everyone was gearing up to get ready.
In the court, someone questioned this matter.
Xue Pinggui sat on the dragon chair and sneered secretly. No wonder Dai Zan didn't say anything. It turned out that he had already hired someone to impeach the queen.
He said with a cold face: "Is there any doubt about this? On weekdays, the palace invites people in to talk and chat. The queen chooses a few people to recite poems and paint together, why can't she do it?"
The person who came out to question was the Protector of the Country, Dai Zan's uncle. Can you not be so obvious and say it would be more sensible to pick someone who is not a relative?
Of course the Protector helped his niece. The Queen was obviously a drunkard and was not interested in drinking. Everyone knew that the King of Xiliang went to the Queen to take a nap every afternoon: "But these women cannot leave the palace and live directly in Zhaoyang Courtyard." . It is said that you have to choose ten. One poem and painting is enough. Why ten!"
Ten? Xue Pinggui felt happy in her heart. She was indeed a good wife and was so kind to him. I used to stay in the cold kiln for 18 years, but now I am afraid that his heirs will wither, so I help him create a talent show with a clever name.
But this old guy objects, why should he object? There are also three concubines and five wives in his house. He is so shameless that last month he even adopted a 15-year-old maid with a face on the mat as his aunt. His grandson is older than this aunt.
