Chapter 1386 The Foolish Empress 9
King Duan immediately defended his owner: "The land is vast and it is impossible to take care of it all, but I have a merciless request."
"Brother, please tell me." Xining smiled.
After King Duan hesitated, he finally spoke out: "This time, with His Majesty's favor, we are divided into Xinyang and Hanxi. This time I brought many descendants from Yan, and I want to..." Half of the words came out, and the rest was hesitant.
Xining immediately understood: "Want to take them and their families to move to the fiefdom?"
This matter can be said to be very big, and the rebels brought here are all rebels. Of course, they are not rebels now, but they followed King Duan to the capital and almost broke into the palace.
If they are taken to a new fiefdom by King Duan and his family members, then when King Duan plans to rebel again in the future, these people will take up arms again and meet the body master Taoist soldiers, which will be a big hidden danger in the future.
Xining thought for a moment and then responded: "It's not impossible to move the people from Yandi, but there will be no one in Yandi. With such a large-scale relocation, how to re-register for naturalization, many things need to be arranged . This matter is not urgent. We will discuss it with the ministers in the court tomorrow. ”
Although King Duan's expression did not change and his eyes were focused in one place, it could still be seen that his mind was spinning rapidly, trying to discern whether there was any hidden meaning in her words.
Xining asked: "When will the emperor plan to go to the fiefdom?"
King Duan responded immediately: "I obey your Majesty."
According to the rules, there is a time limit for going to the fiefdom. Many people who made serious mistakes were carried on carriages and taken to the fiefdom on the day the king gave the order. At most, it takes a month from the time of ordering to departure. Of course, there are also those who are proud of their favor and stay away for a long time. They don't go until they make a big mistake and touch the king's reverse scale. The king is furious and sends him away.
This time is short, it seems that after getting the benefits by forcing the queen to go to the palace, she rushes to the fiefdom to collect the benefits. If the length of stay is fixed, it may be said that he will stay in the capital for a long time and plot evil. King Duan was a man of caution in his words and deeds, so he kicked this question back.
Xining thought for a while and came up with an idea: "Then let's bring this matter up with the matter just now and let the ministers propose it, otherwise they will be too busy."
To put it short, he seemed to be in a hurry to let King Duan go. The length has been fixed, but King Duan is wandering in front of him with so many soldiers, which makes him uneasy. She didn't do anything, and kicked the ball into the court again.
King Duan nodded. No matter what he said, ministers would come out to oppose it. Just let the ministers decide to go!
"No matter whether we leave early or late, we, brother and sister, have less and less time to get together. Let's throw these troubles aside." Xining picked up the chopsticks: "Come, let's eat and drink!"< br>
King Duan laughed and picked up his chopsticks: "Your Majesty is right!"
Xining stuffed a chopstick into his mouth and said to the chief steward while chewing: "Let's dance!"
The chief steward stood nearby, puffed up his chest, and shouted loudly: "Dance!"
Immediately, the musicians who had been waiting for a long time picked up various instruments and started playing music. A dozen dancers wearing white feather costumes and pretending to be cranes came one after another. In the open space in front, they began to dance to the music, like a crane spreading its wings and flying...
King Duan was stunned and did not lower his chopsticks for a long time. Xining, who was eating, felt something was wrong. When he turned his head to look, he choked immediately.
These dancers are all young men aged fifteen to twenty, with slender and tall figures and beautiful faces. The white feather coat, except for the feather sleeves, is covered in layers of white clothes, but the fabric is as thin as cicada wings, and the innermost part is... nothing. As the movements and wind blow, the layers of white gauze billow like clouds, and the inner parts are looming, so tempting.
"Cough cough cough..." Xining was really choked and coughed violently. I haven’t been this embarrassed for a long time, mainly because I was not mentally prepared.
King Duan couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty is so elegant."
After finally coughing up the stuff that had been choked in his trachea, Xining wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and then had no choice but to continue: "Yeah, yeah, it's all arranged by the people below. On weekdays..."
< br>
It seems that the body owner also watches these songs and dances on weekdays, and he also watches them with the beheaded face. Sometimes, in order to please the male concubines in the palace, they would put on their own feathered clothes and perform a dance. Unable to continue the choreography, Xining turned his head, stared, and lowered his voice: "Apart from this one, is there no other dance?"
The manager understood, walked over, half-crouched down, half shorter than the sitting girl, and lowered his voice: "Reporting to Your Majesty, there are also drum dances, wine dances, and Lanling King's outgoing dance."
Searching the memory, encouragement involves beating the drums shirtless, drinking and dancing imitating various postures of drunkenness, and later imitating the heat of drunkenness, taking off clothes while dancing...
The Prince of Lanling's dance was even more extreme. Although the dance was majestic, he only wore a mask from head to toe. When jumping and turning over, the scene is very ecstatic, moving and shaking when necessary.
Xi Ning...this body master is really a weakling.
Maybe it would be okay for a woman to look at this dance that stains the eyes, but Prince Duan is a straight man and he really can't stand it. With sharp ears, he heard something and immediately said: "Prince Lanling dances out of the fortress, this dance is amazing." Anyway, he didn't want to watch this dance.
Uh... This dance is not that dance, even if I beat her to death, I wouldn't dare to do it.
Xining raised his hand: "When the dance stops, let's play the music." It was such a mess, it made my eyes dazzled and my heart was irritable.
A group of handsome men immediately stopped, saluted and left. Like a bunch of white clouds, floating here and there, but under the clouds...
"Yeah!" Xining cleared her throat to cover up her slight embarrassment. Rao's face has been cultivated to be thick enough, and it's a little different.
At this time, there is only music, not a bunch of meat clouds... Ahem, um, um, this is a lot cleaner, which is good.
Xining tried his best to move the matter to other places: "I haven't seen you for many years. I wonder how many wives, concubines, and children your brother has now?"
King Duan sat upright and replied: "After observing the filial piety, we arranged the marriage, and Taifu Bao was the matchmaker. At that time, in addition to marrying the main concubine, he also took his concubine as a side concubine. There was no time to consider this matter in the future. We have only been married for more than a year. , no children yet.”
"Why is this so?" Xining shouted: "This is not okay. It's all my fault. It was my oversight."
It is indeed a matter of the owner of the body, such as the matter of the prince taking in a concubine, and he should be asked about it.
King Duan immediately explained: "Your Majesty is in charge of everything. The Queen Mother makes the decision and the Tutor protects the matchmaker. It is a supreme honor for me."
By the way, in addition to the teacher, there is also the owner’s mother, the Queen Mother!
After the Taifu did this last thing for King Duan, he died. The main concubine and concubine that Prince Duan married were the legitimate daughters and concubines of the Qingliu family in the court.
It is said that his appearance is okay, but his talent is outstanding. This sounds good or bad, they are two well-behaved ladies living in such a strict family.
But even so, they have been married for more than a year and have no children yet, which is a bit of a problem.
It may be that the two sisters fought fiercely with each other, but more likely, King Duan had long thought of treason, so he did not want to have heirs early. Having more heirs means more worries, and also one more weakness.
This King Duan is hiding deep enough!
