126. Concubine
It is not difficult to find a hundred pairs of mothers and children. In this era, due to the limitation of productivity, the population cannot be compared with modern times. But here is the capital of Liangang. It should be the most prosperous place in the empire. The population will not be small. A hundred pairs of mothers and children are naturally not too difficult.
It’s just that there is so much excitement, and if the people in the palace go to find someone, they can’t be gentle enough to think about it. Cheng Hui silently apologized to the one hundred mothers and sons in her heart. She was not only saving herself and Li Youde, but also benefiting the people. Although the stories she fabricated were false, similar things happened from time to time. , If the emperor really announced the unreliability of the method after verification, it would be good for this era.
As for her and Li Youde... Li Youde was worried because he knew that the emperor was not the son of the first emperor under the verification of the blood law, for fear that he would be chopped off by the emperor when he knew it one day, and the emperor also had a knot in his heart. Now that she can prove the unreliability of the Harmony Method, the emperor naturally saw this. She didn't tell the story on the spot. It is good for the emperor, her and Li Youde to know what happened. And because the blood method proved to be unreliable, then Li Youde and she who knew about it back then just knew a little joke, they couldn’t take it out, even if they said it, it was threatening. Not the emperor's status. What's more, she deliberately raised this matter without telling the truth. She helped the emperor get rid of the troubles, and no one can confirm that the emperor listened to her in this way to verify this matter because he was tested in the first place. Considering this, the emperor should have praised her.
"Sit down first." Seeing Cheng Hui had been standing, the emperor motioned to her to sit down.
Cheng Hui thanked him and sat down nearby.
Although the emperor was a little anxiously waiting for the results to come out, Cheng Hui’s attitude actually gave him confidence. Moreover, it was not a matter of a while to find a hundred pairs of mothers and children. He was useless in anxiousness, so he gave birth to Cheng. Hui talked about his interests.
"Miss Chen." The emperor was very polite at the moment, and Wang Youcai's eyelids jumped while watching.
"Yes, the emperor." Cheng Hui was worried about the verification. He was a little restless, and was a little absent-minded in responding to the emperor.
The emperor didn't care, but he said like an ordinary friend: "I heard you were forced to talk to Li Youde?"
Cheng Hui was so excited by this question, what did he mean by asking this? In case she said yes, after she succeeded in helping him get rid of the demons, will he be punished with Li Youde to thank her?
"Exactly, the emperor." Wang Youcai interrupted in front of Cheng Hui, "I heard that Ms. Chen hit a pole and killed herself!"
There was a surprised look on the emperor's face. At first, when Cao Chun introduced Cheng Hui, he was very brief, and the emperor did not know many things.
"Indeed, Li Youde is an incomplete man after all, and most women can't accept it either." The emperor nodded in agreement.
Cheng Hui didn't dare to stare at the emperor, but gave Wang Youcai a fierce look. This bastard is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, must he kill Li Youde? Everyone is of the "yes" generation, so why bother to kill them all?
Cheng Hui said: "The emperor, at that time, she was a gang girl and ignorant. Although Eunuch Li is a father-in-law, he is very good to her gang girl, otherwise she won't leave him.
The emperor was surprised, and curiously asked in a way of discussing questions: "If someone learns that you have followed a father-in-law, would you not feel ashamed?"
Cheng Hui thought to himself, if you hadn't been the emperor, I would have let you taste what is really shameful!
"No." Cheng Hui replied very decisively. "People who feel embarrassed are because they are not confident, but there is nothing to be unconfident about the people. I may have climbed Eunuch Li." Anyway, when Li Youde is not there, she will give it hard. He is ready to wear a high hat. Moreover, there is no need to say some words to the emperor too carefully.
The emperor's expression was a little weird, probably no one would say so frankly that he was climbing with a father-in-law. The father-in-law had many things that couldn't satisfy her, but those things were not suitable for him to say, so he changed the subject: "The genius doctor Levin you mentioned earlier, why have I never heard of it?"
Cheng Hui refreshed, and said hurriedly: "The genius doctor said that he traveled all over the world and changed his name easily. It is not surprising that he has never heard of his name."
"Oh." The emperor replied, and then looked back at Wang Youcai.
Wang Youcai really couldn't understand the emperor's eyes this time, and at the moment he was still thinking about Li Youde's thing, he was afraid that it was going to be yellow, and his mood couldn't be worse. Naturally, he didn't know what the emperor wanted him to do.
The emperor looked at him stupidly at the sight of Wang Youcai, and was so angry that he wanted to kick him out. This Wang Youcai was clever on weekdays, why was he so stupid now?
Before the emperor decided whether to throw a cup of tea and take Wang Youcai out of his anger, he listened to Cheng Hui saying: "The emperor, you must be able to manage everything every day, and the citizens will not bother you to deal with state affairs, and the citizens will wait outside."
The emperor said: "No. I have finished processing today's memorial early."
This time Wang Youcai knew that he was holding up, and he hurriedly said, "The emperor has always been diligent, and he has never rested without reading the memorial!"
Cheng Hui glanced at Wang Youcai and saw that his face was full of flattering smiles. Suddenly he was a little curious. Is Li Youde the same virtue in front of the emperor? Thinking about it like this...it seems kind of fun.
"The emperor's diligence and love for the people are the blessings of my people. If you have a monarch, why don't you worry about it forever!" Cheng Hui praised him without blinking his eyes.
The emperor laughed comfortably, and said: "My country is going to be passed on from generation to generation."
Cheng Hui just started flattering on a whim, and Wang Youcai seized the opportunity to use everything like the eternal famous monarch, and kept on.
Cheng Hui didn't show it on his face, but he wanted to laugh a little bit. If you can use people like Wang Youcai Li Youde, this Mingjun is a bit too moist. Although at present, this emperor is definitely not a faint emperor, but it is still far away from the title of emperor.
After going around like this, Cheng Hui thought of Li Youde. He worked harder. Maybe in the future he will be able to seal the top ten eunuchs or something? don't know if he was scared or not... Anyway, she wouldn't worry about what he couldn't think of. If she didn't get the exact news after she met the emperor, even if she couldn't think about it, she couldn't be impulsive.
At first, the emperor heard Wang Youcai praise that he was quite comfortable, but after a while he suddenly noticed the look in Cheng Hui's eyes. Although he could not see the disrespect, he seemed to have a kind of insight that made him feel uncomfortable.
He coughed, stopped Wang Youcai's stinky feet, and told him to roll away, so he picked up a book in his hand and read it pretentiously.
Cheng Hui was dazed by himself and didn't feel any embarrassment.
After a while, Cao Chun came in and said: "Back to the emperor, a hundred pairs of mothers and children have been found!"
The emperor stood up suddenly, and took two steps forward: "Where? Go!"
Two hundred people, plus the Jinyiwei who controlled them, totaled more than four hundred people. These four hundred people were arranged in the open space between the two halls.
After all, the emperor was still young, and he had done some unreliable things before, such as the fact that Weifu was almost assassinated when he left the palace. Therefore, no one finds it strange that he is so enthusiastic to do something.
The two hundred pairs of mothers and children present were young and some were not too young, and the children were also male and female, ranging from cuddled children to thirteen or fourteen-year-old teenagers. Probably because the process of being brought is not friendly, coupled with so many majestic Jinyiwei standing around, so many people actually did not make a sound, only occasionally there are voices that the baby can’t control. Mother covered it.
The emperor naturally did not go out, but asked Cheng Hui to tell Cao Chun to verify the method and let him take someone to implement it.
The method is simple. After Cheng Hui spoke carefully, he followed. After Cao Chun asked them to bring one hundred bowls, she checked them carefully, and she didn't notice any movements before letting them continue.
The next blood collection process was actually not bloody, but these people didn't know what to ask them to do, so naturally they felt a little scared, so there was a little more commotion. However, there was not much blood to be taken, and it was quickly completed.
Cheng Hui glanced at the bowls in the front row a little, and found that some agglomerated and some were not agglomerated, he was relieved. Her large-scale verification experiment conducted under the leadership of the emperor was not surprisingly successful.
Soon Cao Chun compiled the statistics, and ran to the emperor to report: "The emperor Qi, there are forty-three pairs of fusion, and fifty-seven pairs of solidification!"
The emperor felt relieved when he heard this result, and finally completely relieved. He suddenly got up, ignored Cao Chun's persuasion, picked a group of people randomly, looked over one by one, and saw that what they saw were really different results, and finally smiled relieved.
"Cao Chun, let the inner study room draw an edict. This matter should indeed be announced to the world, so as not to hurt the human life." When the emperor said this, he looked sad and compassionate, and he really looked like a Mingjun.
Cao Chun responded immediately, and he had received even strange orders anyway, and he had been frightened with the emperor and had done anything about it. It didn't count at all.
The emperor was in a particularly good mood. He ordered a reward for the experimental subjects who had been forcibly recruited, and released them all from the palace.
Cheng Hui saw that the emperor was in a good mood, she was in a good mood, and Li Youde was saved!
The group returned to the Nuan Pavilion. The emperor sat on his throne and looked at Cheng Hui's exuberant appearance standing below. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
Twelve years, he has been hiding this heart disease for twelve years. He thought he was going to take this secret to the coffin. Who knows that today he just accidentally raised the idea and summoned Chen Huiniang, so that he can sit back and relax. .
The emperor glanced at Wang Youcai, who seemed a bit obstructive at the moment, and said: "Wang Youcai, you go out first."
Wang Youcai was taken aback.
"You all go out, Miss Chen stay." The emperor said again.
The others did not dare to resist their orders and hurriedly quit with training. Wang Youcai was not reconciled anymore, so he had to give Cheng Hui a glance and then went out.
Cheng Hui's heart tensed slightly, and then comforted herself, the emperor drove everyone out, maybe he would thank her in private.
The emperor said: "What reward do you want?"
Cheng Hui was overjoyed, as expected!
Cheng Hui said, "Don’t reward the people’s daughters. Eunuch Li is loyal to the emperor, and the people’s daughters are no exception. Today Eunuch Li has no choice but to reveal something to the people’s daughters. The people’s daughters know that it is wrong, so they naturally have to correct them. worry."
She still said something ambiguous, but she said it fairly well. The emperor didn't necessarily believe what she said, but she seemed to think about him everywhere, he should always be a little bit happy.
The emperor looked at Cheng Hui's appearance of neither humble nor overbearing, and suddenly felt a little itchy in his heart. He remembered that the last time he chose his concubine was two years ago, and there should be more newcomers in the palace, especially interesting ones.
The emperor said: "Chen Huiniang, you don't need to reward, but I should reward you. Then, I will allow you to enter the palace, and I will start with Zhaoyi first."
Cheng Hui: "..." What is it?
Cheng Hui looked at the emperor with a look of "you are not grateful yet" and blinked and asked, "The emperor, what did you just say?"
The emperor's face sank, and his majesty immediately rose: "Why, you don't want to?"
When he used to say this, most of the people he said would kneel to thank you. After all, he is the emperor. Who dares to stroke the tiger's beard?
However, this time, the person in front of him replied: "Yes, the people are not willing."
The emperor was silent for a while before saying: "You say it again."
"People are not willing." Cheng Hui said it again, as expected.
The emperor stared at Cheng Hui without saying a word. He seldom encountered rejections, especially when the other party was still a woman, so he was a little uncertain about how he would respond next.
But Cheng Hui didn't want to make the atmosphere too stiff. After thinking about it, he asked: "The emperor, why do you want the people to enter the palace?"
She doesn't believe in love at first sight, and her appearance hasn't been so amazing. To say that the emperor was subdued by her wisdom... What does it mean to put her in the harem? haven't seen him put the new champions in the harem! Or is it because he repaid her for gratitude? Then she wished to beat up the emperor.
Cheng Hui's question alleviated the embarrassment, but he also asked the emperor down. He is the emperor and he can do whatever he wants. Except for the difficult things that old men sometimes do, he rarely does things that people can’t control. There are times when you are unhappy.
"I am the emperor, and you can ask for which woman you like." The emperor coldly said, and said domineeringly, not so much as an explanation, but as an order.
Cheng Hui said: "The emperor, you are right. But don't forget, I am Li Youde's woman."
The emperor's expression remained unchanged: "Why are you his woman? How can he be a castrate?"
Cheng Hui finally verified the meaning of the sentence that the imperial dying of moths means by personal experience. In history, there are even emperors who get pregnant women into the palace, and it is not surprising that women who rob a eunuch are not uncommon.
Cheng Hui took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
While telling herself that the person standing in front of her was the emperor, she could not be too presumptuous, and that Li Youde’s life was still in his hands, and at the same time, she was accustomed to the emperor’s indifferent contempt for Li Youde. Feel angry.
Li Youde has faced this kind of contempt from his boss day and night, so it is strange that he is not inferior. All the hardships she has taken to win Li Youde this year have nothing to do with the emperor!
Cheng Hui was blessed slightly and looked at the emperor with a chuckle and said, "The emperor, you really don't pick it."
The emperor raised his brow, a little curious what Cheng Hui was going to say.
Cheng Hui continued: "The emperor, I didn't expect you to be so nonchalant. You also want a woman who has played with a eunuch! I have the taste and breath of a eunuch inside and out. You don't want to be disgusting?"
The emperor didn't expect Cheng Hui to say such bold and presumptuous words, his face was slightly stiff.
Cheng Hui's words are naturally not over, and then he smiled and said: "If the emperor is really not picky, I will be a weak girl. I just ask the emperor to rest assured. From now on I will do my best to make the emperor reluctant to think about Shu and have no intention of ruling politics. It’s not known that Liang Jiangshan was defeated in your hands. Of course, I have always been a jealous woman. With me in your harem, there will be no peace."
The emperor took a breath after hearing Cheng Hui's words, and then felt that she was really overconfident and somewhat alarmist. He is not the prince of the former dynasty, so how can he be confused by the female sex and ignore the government? Besides, she is not so beautiful in his eyes, how could he be said to him?
The emperor just wanted to speak, and when he met Cheng Hui's eyes, he was surprised by her determination.
Now he does have some appreciation for her. He has always liked interesting things, which naturally includes people. So before said that wanted to admit her to the palace, there was a five-point truth, but after listening to her words, his appreciation was a little bit more, a woman who would rather be an eunuch than be a concubine, how fresh, He wanted to accept her a little bit more, but her words made him hesitate.
He was confident that the woman would not influence him, but the woman opposite had the same or even stronger confidence, so he hesitated.
Now he has a stable state, handles the affairs of the state every day, and can still have some fun from time to time. These days are very comfortable. Why should he take risks? His father was obsessed with a concubine back then. Although he was young, he still remembers it still fresh. If it hadn't been for that favored concubine died early, now Daliang still doesn't know what it looks like. He is his father's biological son, I am afraid he also has his father's infatuation...
Remind you: Seek collection (
