Under Wuhuang

Wu Jiacheng didn't want to face the women in the harem, because seeing them would arouse his heartache. If it wasn't for the decree of the first emperor to grant the marriage during the Ninth King, if it wasn't for the gesture of wooing the courtiers when he first ascended the throne, Wu Jiacheng Jiacheng is something no woman would want to marry, and she doesn't know how to deal with it when she gets married.

The empress and others did report something to the emperor during their trip. Recently, due to the hot weather and no rain, many places have been hit by drought. The household department is trying to find ways to raise relief money. For disaster relief.

Emperor Wu praised her for being virtuous, but the queen did not take credit for it, saying that it was the idea of ​​the concubine Xian, and that the father of the concubine Shen Qinglan was the Minister of the Household Department, no wonder she could come up with such a method.Wu Huang praised Concubine Xian again, and Concubine Xian was naturally modest.

The queen said again: "It's just that there are only three of us in the palace, no matter how frugal you are, there is a limit to it. This is what I think. Why don't I donate 1000 taels of silver from the concubine, and the concubine Xian and the younger sister Xiu Rong will be eight hundred or so?" Six hundred is good. Although we don’t have much money, since the palace has set an example, the princesses and wives outside will definitely not watch it. When the time comes to donate money and goods together, it should be a large amount of disaster relief. payment."

Wu Huang repeatedly praised the empress for her intelligence, but the empress saw that the emperor looked a bit tired, knowing that he didn't want to talk more, she immediately smiled and said: "Since your majesty is sick, all the concubines will leave first. Wanbao respects the body of the dragon, and it is the blessing of all people."

The concubine Xian and Xiu Rong stepped back first, but the queen fell a few steps. When she was about to leave the hall, the queen suddenly turned around and asked Wu Huang softly: "The concubine ordered someone to cook the eight treasure soup that the Holy Majesty loves most early in the morning. , tonight, is the Holy Majesty willing to move to Fengqi Palace?"

Originally, according to the ancestral system, on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, the emperor should sleep with the queen, but in the case of Emperor Wu, this ancestral system is almost useless.But now that the queen has spoken... Wu Jiacheng said with a smile, "Okay, I will definitely go." The queen raised her head and smiled at him.

Xu Xiurong, who was walking in front, quietly said to Concubine Shen Xian: "The idea of ​​reducing expenses was obviously brought up by my sister, why did the Queen steal the limelight today? You see she is walking at the end, she doesn't know what to whisper to the Holy Majesty!"

Concubine Shen Xian said: "She and the Holy Majesty are a married couple, the relationship is different from us." Xu Xiurong said disdainfully: "How can it be different? Could it be that the Holy Majesty still favors her?" Concubine Shen Xian changed her face and reprimanded in a low voice Said: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

After Xu Xiurong finished speaking, she also regretted it, she bit her lips, and simply said in a low voice: "It's what it is, after entering this palace, it's no different from being a widow..." Concubine Shen Xian said coldly: "Don't you know before entering the palace? You Since you are willing to come, why should you complain now?"

"I, I..." Xu Xiurong bit her lips and couldn't say why, Concubine Shen Xian didn't want to talk to her, so she turned and left.Xu Xiurong sneered at her back, and muttered in a low voice, "Pretending."

In the evening of this day, before it was dark, Wu Jiacheng rushed to Fengqi Palace.The queen was already ready to pick her up, and the dinner arrangements were all Wu Huang's favorite dishes.

Wu Jiacheng's relationship with this married wife is indeed different.When he got married back then, he was still the unfavored Ninth Prince, and because he had such a hidden disease, he was looked down upon by the princes, but any noble lady with a higher vision, who would want to marry him?

Later, the first emperor couldn't bear it, and proposed marriage to him. The other party was just the daughter of a sixth-rank member, a foreigner, with a low family background, and her appearance could only be described as fair. Fortunately, she was a gentle and virtuous girl, and she had no complaints about her husband's hidden illness. He only serves with all his heart, and manages the palace in an orderly manner.

Later, when Emperor Wu came to the throne, some people suggested that the concubine's family background was too low, and that she was considered the top of the four concubines, and it was possible to re-canonize a queen of noble birth.However, Emperor Wu insisted on making his first wife his queen, and the general also acquiesced.

Today the Empress was so attentive, and Emperor Wu was also happy, so he couldn't help but drank two more glasses.After the meal, he asked, "What's bothering the queen?"

The queen made him startled for a moment, then blushed, lowered her head and said in shame: "Nothing can be hidden from the wise eyes of the Holy One." Wu Huang smiled and said: "You and I are husband and wife, if you have anything to say, you don't have to be wronged."

The empress told him that his heart softened when he said this, his eyes turned a little red, and he said the matter in two or three sentences.

It turned out that not long after Emperor Wu ascended the throne, his father-in-law Lu Deze became the head of the state, and he was promoted to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials at the fourth rank without the emperor asking.

Wu Huang was actually a little annoyed after hearing this, and thought that Lu Deze was the head of the country after all, so if he didn't give him face, wouldn't he not take my emperor seriously?Comfortingly said: "You don't have to worry about the queen, I will seek justice for the father-in-law."

Unexpectedly, the queen knelt down and said: "The concubine's father is not qualified to be a servant. Even if there is no such accident, I am afraid that sooner or later he will miss the state affairs and himself. Just call him Yuanwailang."

Wu Huang has always known that his wife is intelligent and reasonable, and now he seems to be even more happy. He took the queen's hand and helped her up, saying: "Why are the queen and I so polite? The matter of the king is naturally My business."

The queen's heart was warm, and she called out shyly and timidly: "My lord~~~"

With this situation, Wu Huang's heart was a little bit turbulent, and he felt that he should embrace his wife, but after that?It seems that they don't know how to end it... Just when the emperor was struggling to hug or not, Shun'er came to report that the general of Zhen Guo was outside the palace and had something urgent to ask the emperor.

Wu Huang breathed a sigh of relief quietly, let go of the queen's hand, told her to "have a good rest" and left.

Walking out of Fengqi Palace, he saw the general with a face of frost, Wu Huang asked: "What's the matter, Gu Qing?"

Gu Jiacheng only said indifferently: "Today in Zhongyuan, the Queen's palace is naturally extremely cloudy, the Holy Majesty does not shy away from it."

At this time, it was already dark, and there were only a few lanterns carried by the servants around him emitting a dim light. Just then, there was another gust of wind, which made the surrounding flowers and trees rustle. Wu Jiacheng felt the hairs on his back stand on end, so he quickly pulled Gu Jiacheng up. Wrist said: "Let's go, let's go."

Back at the Xuanchen Hall, before the emperor could speak, the general invited him to stay overnight as a "servant". Wu Jiacheng was satisfied in his heart, but said: "Gu Qing is so thoughtful, I don't know how to reward you."

Gu Jiacheng said: "Didn't the Holy Majesty have said this morning that he wants the vassal to be the emperor's husband?"

"Hahahahahahahahaha! Gu Qing, you are enough! You have to memorize a joke for a day!"

"You have no jokes."

"Uh, but you proposed this emperor's husband, and what I'm talking about is making you a queen."

"The queen is fine too."

"Gu Qing, go to sleep."

The emperor fell asleep on his head, but turned over not long after, leaned close to Gu Jiacheng, and called out softly, "Gu Qing~ Gu Qing~ Gu Qing, are you asleep yet? Are you still asleep?"

Gu Jiacheng didn't open his eyes but only let out a "huh".

Wu Jiacheng said: "I was at the Empress's place today, and I heard that the head of the country was ordered by the Ministry of Officials, what does Gu Qing think?"

Gu Jiacheng slowly opened his eyes, and said: "If the Holy Majesty thinks something is wrong, he will go back at the court meeting tomorrow on behalf of the Patriarch."

Wu Jiacheng snorted coldly: "Does the child play house? After being scolded, you will be scolded back. Besides, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials belongs to Gu Qing. If he comes to you to complain later, what will you do?"

Gu Jiacheng said: "What can I do? I am also a man of the Holy One."

Wu Jiacheng patted him on the shoulder, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'm serious about discussing with you."

Gu Jiacheng lowered his eyes and said, "What does His Majesty think?"

Wu Jiacheng pursed the corners of his lips and thought for a while, then said: "The head of the country is pedantic, and his head is not very bright. The position of minister of officials is really not suitable for him. I thought, why not order him to go to the Military Weapons Supervision and buy some artifacts?" Business suits his elm head."

Gu Jiacheng's eyelids were still drooping, and his slender eyelashes blocked his eyes, which also gave him a particularly docile attitude.Wu Jiacheng was a little nervous, but he heard Gu Jiacheng say: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful."

Hearing his agreement, Wu Jiacheng breathed a sigh of relief just now, and was about to turn over when Gu Jiacheng asked, "Who is the Majesty planning to give the position of Minister of Officials?"

Wu Jiacheng suddenly felt that he did have a candidate for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, but he didn't want to bring it up together tonight, otherwise, if he was too purposeful, he would definitely not be able to escape the General's sensitive and meticulous thoughts.Judging from the current situation, the general has obviously suspected...

Can't this person lose two minds?She has already slept in her own bed, but she still wants to plot against herself!Wu Jiacheng was upset, and simply told what was in his heart, "I think Han Mubo, the second son of Taifu Han's family, is not bad."

Gu Jiacheng was only silent for a while, and then agreed: "Yes."

Wu Jiacheng was very surprised, he didn't expect Gu Jiacheng to be so easy-going, maybe he was thinking about it before?Gu Jiacheng isn't afraid of him cultivating his power?No, no, there is nothing wrong with this, it must be because these two roles are insignificant, General Gu doesn't think so.

Wu Jiacheng, who lowered his head, quietly raised his eyebrows, and fell asleep contentedly.

However, Gu Jiacheng was seriously thinking about a problem: in bed, it is really not suitable for talking about state affairs.

When Wu Jiacheng woke up the next day, he felt something hard and hot against him on the back of his buttocks. A muffled and hoarse moan came from behind...

Wu Jiacheng suddenly woke up!He immediately rolled around on the bed, tilted his head and stared bitterly at Gu Jiacheng, who was one arm away, his face was flushed red.

Gu Jiacheng is also about to wake up. Compared with Wu Jiacheng's shame and anger, Gu Jiacheng's face is much calmer, but he looks at Wu Jiacheng with a bit of dissatisfaction.

Wu Jiacheng saw his dissatisfaction, squinted his eyes and asked: "You still have face? Why are you so embarrassed?"

Gu Jiacheng said with a blank expression: "I don't know what's wrong, it was the Holy One who teased me first."

Wu Jiacheng sat up angrily, pointed at Gu Jiacheng and said, "Obviously you did that...that first! You offended me!"

Gu Jiacheng also sat up slowly, and said: "Morning erection is really normal, and it's the Holy One himself who came close to me. I don't know what I'm guilty of."

Wu Jiacheng said angrily: "Okay, okay, you have a reason to be a hooligan."

Gu Jiacheng laughed and said: "That's right, Your Majesty doesn't have such an experience."

Wu Jiacheng's face paled suddenly, Gu Jiacheng also knew that the teasing was a little too much, he wanted to turn around but didn't know how to say it.I saw Wu Jiacheng turned his face away and lowered his eyes, his shoulders were trembling slightly.

Seeing his aggrieved and forbearing appearance, Gu Jiacheng's heart ached so much, he wished he could hug the emperor into his arms and cherish him, but he also knew that if he really hugged him, he would only offend him even more.

Gu Jiacheng licked his lower lip, and apologized in a low voice: "It's the minister who speaks recklessly, it's the minister who offended the Holy Majesty by being a hooligan, the Holy Majesty is open-minded, please don't get angry with the minister, if the anger destroys the body, it will not be enough for the minister to die ten thousand times arrive."

Wu Jiacheng let out a "bah" and snorted coldly: "Not only is the general thick-skinned, but his mouth is getting poorer."

Gu Jiacheng smiled and asked, "The Holy One thinks, is it good or not?"

Wu Jiacheng was puzzled and asked: "How is it good? So what if it's not good?"

Gu Jiacheng said: "If the Holy Majesty feels it is not good, I will change it."

Wu Jiacheng looked at him with a frown, and Gu Jiacheng had a faint smile on his lips, and he looked very sincere. Wu Jiacheng forgot the rift just now, and only thought that his appearance was very similar to that time.It's just such a simple and pure past, he and he can't go back.

Wu Jiacheng was a little sluggish all morning. Gu Jiacheng saw that the dishes for breakfast this day were nearly half less than the previous day, and asked the maid in charge who was about to have a fit, but Wu Jiacheng said: "It is I who ordered you to reduce the consumption. Speed." Then he told about the fundraising and charity work of the Queen and others yesterday.

Gu Jiacheng asked: "They cut theirs, what does it have to do with the Holy One?"

Wu Jiacheng raised his chest and said, "I am the king of a country, so naturally I have to lead by example."

Gu Jiacheng said: "You don't need to worry about disaster relief, the relevant matters have been properly arranged, and there is no shortage of money."

Wu Jiacheng still wanted to talk, Gu Jiacheng gave him a piece of crab cake, and said calmly: "I have been fighting everywhere and working hard for so many years, can't I still not be able to support you, my sage?"

Wu Jiacheng's eyes were wide open, and his expression was rather startled and uncertain.Because the general's words seemed to show loyalty and show off, and there was a bit of inexplicable ambiguity in it. He didn't know whether to be angry, angry, or call him a "rogue", and finally had no choice but to Blindly eating cakes.

The emperor was in a hurry, so he announced the new positions of the head of the state and the son of the Han family at the court meeting that day.There was nothing in the court hall, but when the court came down, all the ministers naturally talked about it.

It's all right for the head of the country to go to the Military Weapons Supervision, after all, he is still the fourth grade, but the second son of the Han family is a well-known dandy in the capital. I don't know what the emperor is planning, but the general is also going to let him go.

The empress was naturally very happy to receive the news from the previous court. On the first day of August, the empress came to Xuanchen Hall in full dress to pay her respects, and invited the emperor to sit in Fengqi Palace in the evening.

Wu Huang was in a good mood recently, so he agreed.

During the dinner, the queen was naturally attentive and thoughtful, and Wu Huang asked her to persuade her to drink a few more glasses of wine. Looking at the queen under the lamp, she seemed to have a particularly bright posture.

After the queen shunned the palace people away, Wu Huang was dizzy and saw some ways, the queen meekly knelt in front of Wu Huang, put her face on his lap, and said softly: "Tonight, let the concubine serve the Holy Majesty. "

Wu Huang wanted to push her away, but couldn't bear it, said: "Queen, the queen also knows..."

The empress nodded, raised her eyes and looked at the emperor tenderly, and said, "Your Majesty has been taking good care of you these past few years, why not, why not try it with your concubine..." After all, she was still ashamed, and the empress flushed like a girl on her cheeks, " Regardless of success or failure, the concubine's side is here, the Holy One doesn't have to worry."

Wu Huang made her say it a little bit emotionally. In fact, they had tried several times when they first got married. With the queen, there is really nothing to hide.Wu Huang hesitated, but finally nodded.

The queen shyly dragged the emperor to the bedroom, and the two took a bath one after another.The queen knew that Emperor Wu would not kiss anyone, so she took off her clothes directly...but it still didn't work.

The emperor sighed and said with a sluggish expression, "I have wronged you."

But the queen gave him a tactful smile, pressed her into his arms gently and said: "I love you, and I never feel wronged."

That night, Emperor Wu rested in Fengqi Palace.

The news reached the general's mansion almost immediately.

At that time, the general was listening to a secret report from Yingwei, and asked several business travelers who had received news from Beiditong how to deal with it.

Gu Jiacheng took a sip of tea slowly, lowered his eyes, and said softly but clearly: "Kill."
