Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 150 Adventure
Bai Xue became pregnant, which became a great joy in the harem.

But someone couldn't sit still.

Zhu Houzhao's uncle, Zhang Yanling, Earl of Shouning, immediately asked Queen Mother Zhang to order Zhu Houzhao to order a beauty pageant as soon as he got the news.

He could manipulate it so that his daughter could enter the harem and take charge of the power in the harem.

"Sister, I also understand what you mean, and I am also very anxious. If Zhao'er and Xuan'er can be married quickly, Xuan'er will be the queen of the harem."

Zhang Yanling came all the way from outside the palace, the purpose was to convince Empress Dowager Zhang that this matter could not wait any longer, even if her daughter was pregnant now, this matter would be much easier to handle.

"But."

"There are not so many things. Didn't the chief minister of the cabinet, Liu Jian, prevent us Xuan'er from entering the palace to become a queen? Now he has gone. The world's surname is Zhu, not Liu. Why should we listen to them? "

Before the Queen Mother finished speaking, Zhang Yanling interrupted the Queen Mother. Now he is the most urgent person to let Zhang Xuan and Zhu Houzhao get married. In this way, with two queens in one family, the Zhang family can go sideways in the capital from now on.

"It's not that the cabinet disagrees. I'm afraid of taking care of this child. You know, as women, we can't interfere in government affairs. I think it's better to let them develop on their own!"

"Develop on their own? My sister, if they continue to develop on their own, I think the day lily will be cold."

"For the current plan, only by letting Xuan'er enter the palace and staying with Zhao'er every day can the relationship between them be enhanced, and the raw rice can be cooked faster." Zhang Yanling said anxiously to Queen Mother Zhang .

"However, I always feel that Zhao'er has a bad relationship with Xuan'er." Empress Dowager Zhang told the last truth in her heart.

"What is a relationship? You two had a good relationship back then? Don't forget, you are the mother of a country. Zhao'er listens to you in many places. You'd better make up your mind quickly! If it's too late, Zhao'er if another With a new love, it will be difficult for Xuan'er to enter the palace in the future."

Empress Dowager Zhang is indeed in a bit of a dilemma. Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Xuan are childhood sweethearts. She is not ignorant of this, but she has a lot of thoughts. Zhu Houzhao has no feelings for Zhang Xuan at all, and they are related. If they really become a couple, it is estimated that There will be problems after giving birth to children.

But Queen Mother Zhang sees this issue farther than his younger brother, and she will not tell Zhang Yanling.

"I'll find time to talk to Zhao'er, so that the two of them can get closer to each other."

"I think the matter of the palace beauty pageant should be advanced one month, and it is best to finish the matter this month, so that I, as a father, can rest assured."

Zhang Yanling's long-awaited beauty pageant event, as if he is the one participating this time, is burning with anxiety.

He felt that his daughter would definitely win the beauty pageant, and then she would become a queen as a matter of course, and their family's dream of two queens would come true.

At the same time, in Chuxiu Palace Shufangzhai.

Sitting on the stool, Liu Ruyue felt hot all over her body, and she also had a special urge, which she couldn't describe, just the feeling of wanting something.

It's been a constant sensation, half an hour after she's taken the first pill, and it's making her mind spin wildly.

When the palace maid said that she would serve His Majesty tonight, her heart was beating even more violently, as if her blood pressure had risen a lot in an instant.

Forcibly suppressing her desire, she took a bath and changed her clothes, but her mind was always in a state of ignorance, and even a little skin contact made her feel excited.

After finally taking a bath, she asked a few maids to dress her in her favorite clothes, and then began to wait for the night with a happy mood.

However, the wait was long.

She felt that just waiting for the night to fall was like going through a long whole day, and even if there was a slight disturbance outside, she felt that her expression was still out of her body, as if Zhu Houzhao had embraced her affectionately.
"Daddy's letter said that I should find a way to let him take this pill. Only in this way can the effectiveness of the pill be maximized."

"Now that I'm in this state, do you still dare to let His Majesty take it?" Liu Ruyue thought secretly for a long time, and finally made up her mind to try it out first. If a man takes this pill, it can also have a certain degree of emotional attachment. If it works together, it doesn't hurt to let him eat it all.

After figuring this out, Liu Ruyue felt much more refreshed. She took a few sips of the cold boiled water before, and the hot feeling all over her body disappeared in an instant.

She got up and called the servant girl, asked her to go out and boil some more boiling water, and told her to buy some good honey, so that His Majesty could "take medicine" with peace of mind.

Liu Ruyue was also very adventurous this time, but with the experience of last time, she has become much more cautious in doing things now.

The maid quickly brought honey and boiling water according to her instructions, and then stood quietly aside. They didn't know what happened in Shufangzhai today, but felt that their master was very enthusiastic today.

Finally, after the sun went down, Liu Ruyue dressed up meticulously, and then dragged Ouyang Jing to tell Zhu Houzhao that he should come to Shufangzhai first.

It turned out that the Ming Empire had strict regulations, as long as the beautiful women who served at night had to be groomed carefully after receiving the notice, and then take a bath and change clothes, and then the emperor's close eunuchs were in charge. They could not wear any clothes before entering the emperor's bedroom.

Moreover, there must be someone outside who is responsible for recording the time of entry. If the time is up, Xiu Nu will be sent out forcibly.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for Liu Ruyue to bring the pills into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

She was willing to go all out, anyway, she felt that her father was helping her and would not harm her, so she had the courage to think of such a method.

Just in time, after Zhu Houzhao finished his dinner, he wanted to go for a walk in Qingshibaiyu Square, when he heard Ouyang Jing report that Miss Liu from Shufangzhai was invited, saying that she had something to say.

Zhu Houzhao was also in a good mood, and accepted the invitation heartily.

At this time, it was already nightfall, and the entire Bauhinia City was immersed in twilight.

With Zhu Houzhao's hands behind his back, several guards followed him to Shufangzhai.

"The concubine sees Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe!"

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Liu Ruyue greeted Zhu Houzhao with all the blessings.

Since she came out of the cold palace, she has worked hard on the etiquette of the Ming court, and has learned all the etiquette in the court.

Zhu Houzhao was very satisfied with Liu Ruyue's performance, and he even felt that there was nothing wrong with giving Liu Ruyue a second chance.

Moreover, Liu Ruyue is a pretty woman, if she is allowed to give birth to a dragon species, it is estimated that her personality will be similar to hers in the future.

"I heard that you have something to report to me? Is it uncomfortable to live here?"

Zhu Houzhao asked with concern.

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is very good for the ministers and concubines to live here, and I don't feel dissatisfied at all here."

"It's fine if you're satisfied, then when do you want me to come here?"

Liu Ruyue looked at the maids around and gave them a wink, and they all quit Shufangzhai one by one.
