Li Xuandu was so angry that he patted the table heavily with his hands, too hard, his hands were numb and painful.
"I'm still here!" He said in a very angry voice.
These little eunuchs and maids seemed to have just realized it, and perfunctorily kowtowed to him.
Li Xuandu came to Zhengyang Palace for only a few days, he was learning the rules and had other things to do, he didn't even visit Zhengyang Palace.I have no contact with these eunuchs and maids, except for one contact during the day.But he still regarded him as his master. Now it seems that he really obeyed Duofu's words and was too kind to them. They thought he was afraid of them and trying to curry favor with them.
It was extremely arrogant, and no matter how he dealt with it, he would climb onto his head.
Li Xuandu didn't ask them to get up, but let them kneel down.
"Have you met all your needs today?" Li Xuandu glanced over them.
"It's in place." The voice was not neat, and it seemed to be perfunctory.
"Liu Dazhuang, Zhang Tiegen, Shen Gouwa, Tuesday Niu," Li Xuandu read out the names he saw just now, "The four names I have read, I will kneel down to the front."
After all, they are young people. They are different from the father-in-law who has been immersed in the harem for a long time. If the master is really angry, they are still afraid, and immediately come out of the crowd and kneel at the front.
Li Xuandu took a sip of tea slowly, and looked at them disdainfully: "What are you doing in Zhengyang Palace?"
"This..." The four of them looked at each other without daring to speak.
"Say it? Why don't you say it?" Li Xuandu lowered his voice, "Liu Dazhuang, tell me."
After being named Liu Dazhuang, he looked at the people kneeling on the ground together, but did not speak.
"Tell me," Li Xuandu's voice was lowered several times, "Didn't you hear my question?"
"Slave, slaves don't dare." Liu Dazhuang said tremblingly.
Li Xuandu said coldly: "Okay, you don't dare, but tell me, what are you doing in Zhengyang Palace?"
Liu Dazhuang didn't dare not say: "Servant, this servant is your personal prisoner, Your Highness the Empress."
"Oh?" Li Xuandu raised his eyelids slightly, and slowly swept them over his body, "Then how many of them are there?"
The three knelt on the ground: "Please forgive me, Your Highness the Queen."
"Forgive me?" Li Xuandu snorted a few times, "Since I'm the internal eunuch with me, why hasn't I seen anyone in the palace for so many days?"
No one dared to speak, just kowtowed their heads lower.
"Tell me, where have you been these few days?" Li Xuandu's voice raised slightly, "Don't tell me, I have plenty of ways for you to talk about it." Once again, thank him for watching so many dramas, he imitated the queen in the drama Well, the appearance of the concubines can also scare people.
The four accompanying internal eunuchs were really scared and trembling, so they could only say tremblingly: "The servants are not going anywhere, they are in Zhengyang Palace. The servants know that they are wrong, please forgive the servants, Your Royal Highness. The servants will never dare again."
"Procrastinate, and go to the Punishment Department first." Li Xuandu pressed his brows, "Don't beat and scold, I will wait for my palace to send you tomorrow."
Immediately, the eunuch in charge of this matter dragged them out, and the atmosphere in the hall was completely different from before, filled with a murderous aura.
Li Xuandu watched quietly for a while, then nodded to Shen Mushang who was sitting next to him: "Let's get started."
Shen Mushang took out the roster: "Everyone whose name I read will stand up."
"Sun Tiezhu."
"Wang Chunsheng."
……
This time, no one dared to be negligent, and they all stood up obediently.
After Shen Mushang read the names, Li Xuandu continued: "You have all seen what happened to those people just now. I have always treated people generously. I can treat you well and solve your various difficulties. But the premise is that, You have to abide by the rules, don't try to ride on Ben Gong's head. Anyone who dares to break the rules will be severely punished!"
The servants all knelt down on the ground: "Slaves dare not."
Li Xuandu nodded, waved his hand: "It's all right, let's go down."
While walking, Li Xuandu asked Duofu: "Is there any method of reward and punishment in the palace?" He hasn't figured out what to do with those four people yet.
Duofu replied: "No, only punishment, no reward. As for what and how to punish, it all depends on the wishes of the masters."
Li Xuandu nodded, which was also expected: "Then we must work out a reward and punishment method first, and I have to think about it."
He knew that the incident in Zhengyang Palace was just the beginning, and there would be tougher battles to be fought in the future.
In the morning of the next day, Li Xuandu woke up early with something in his heart, and it was still dark when he looked outside.
"What time is it?" Li Xuandu asked.
Duo Fu said: "Just now, the servants were already waiting in the hall, and the stewards of various ministries were waiting in the courtyard."
It's still the first lunar month, and the weather is still very cold. Fortunately, there are earth dragons in Zhengyang Palace, so it's warm.
Li Xuandu washed and changed his clothes: "How is Huaixu?"
"Xian Shijun has just taken the medicine, and it seems to be better." Duofu said.
Li Xuandu nodded, relieved a lot.
He went out, first met the servants of the palaces, and then explained to them: "I have something to discuss with you today, but we have to go out and have a look first."
When we arrived in the courtyard, a group of people lined up. It was cold and everyone was wearing cloaks. More than a dozen people stood shoulder to shoulder, each with their own charm, as beautiful as a painting.Li Xuandu stood in the middle and asked, "Is everyone here?"
Duofu presented the roster, and Li Xuandu motioned him to Lin Changxia who was standing beside him.
Lin Changxia is the son of Dali Siqing, the highest judicial organ in the country, and he must be fair and honest.
Lin Changxia took the roster in his hand and began to read: "Xi Deshun, Chief Supervisor of Rites—"
"Head of the Rites Supervisor, Xi Deshun—"
"Head of the Rites Supervisor, Xi Deshun—"
Lin Changxia read it three times in a row, and the people below snickered.
Li Xuandu cleared his throat and looked at the leader's father-in-law: "Wang Gonggong, why didn't Xi Gonggong come?"
The people below were very proud and laughed secretly in their hearts, what a stick.
Duofu hurriedly said: "At this time, Eunuch Xi should accompany His Majesty to court."
Li Xuandu put on a face: "Understood, let him come to see me when he comes down."
He knew that Eunuch Xi would not listen to him, and he did this just to show off to this group of people, to let them understand that he was not even afraid of Eunuch Xi.
Sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, there was a lot of silence below.
Lin Changxia went on to read: "Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor——"
"Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor—"
"Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor—"
Lian Nian and the three of them didn't answer again, just as Li Xuandu was about to ask, an old eunuch in his 60s came slowly outside, with a big stomach: "The servant is——"
Everyone gave way one after another, Wang Fuhai walked to the front, straightened his clothes casually, and said very disdainfully: "Your Majesty the Queen, please be respectful, servants."
Li Xuandu and Lin Changxia looked at each other, and didn't ask him to get up, just let him kneel like that: "Wang Fuhai, when does the palace ask you to come?"
Wang Fuhai had a high rank and high status in the palace, so he didn't pay much attention to Li Xuandu: "The servant has something to do."
"Your business is more important than my palace's will?" Li Xuandu said, "Could it be possible that you also drove with Wang Ban like Eunuch Xi?"
Wang Fuhai came late on purpose, he just wanted to kill Li Xuandu's vigor.
"Chang Xia, write him down, and then roll the roll." Li Xuandu looked at it, "Lan Qiu Ji, you call him Ji."
Nangong Yuexi, who was standing beside Shang Lanqiu, said, "Your Highness, let me come."
Li Xuandu nodded, and asked someone to fetch a table, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Nangong Yuexi wrote Wang Fuhai's name on it.
What Wang Fuhai wanted to say, Lin Changxia didn't give him a chance, and continued to read.
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
Lin Changxia yelled three more times, and someone came out from below and said, "Your Highness, the father-in-law in charge was killed by His Majesty last night."
"Killed?" Li Xuandu was taken aback, "What happened?"
The man said: "I don't know."
Li Xuandu didn't take it seriously, after all he knew that the emperor was a tyrant, and it was normal to kill a servant.
He told Lin Changxia that the next two people went well, and they all came, but after reading a few words, they still didn't come, and they said they had something to do.
Li Xuandu knew in his heart that this was intentional, and he was trying to show him off.
He didn't say anything, but asked Nangong Yuexi to write down all the names.
While reciting the name, some people came one after another.
This time, all the main leaders of various departments came, a total of 24 eunuchs, and some female officials.Therefore, the time for roll call was not long. After Lin Changxia finished reading the last name, a voice sounded outside: "Your Highness, the old slave is late."
This voice was so familiar, everyone looked over, but unexpectedly, Eunuch Xi came.
Eunuch Xi walked inside with a fly whisk in his hand, and when he walked in the front, he bowed and saluted: "This old slave is to Your Highness, all servants, please greet me."
Li Xuandu's heart was beating like a drum, he didn't expect him to come, every time he showed up, nothing good happened, he always came with the emperor's will.He looked him around, but he didn't take the imperial decree, and then slowly calmed down: "Get up, Eunuch Nianxi wants to serve His Majesty, so it's fine if you come late today." He pretended to say a lot.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." Eunuch Xi cupped his hands again.
The expressions on the faces of the people below were really exciting, no one expected that Eunuch Xi would come.Eunuch Xi is the head of the harem, and he is highly respected. Everyone is afraid of him. Once he comes, no one dares to be presumptuous, so he stands obediently.
Li Xuandu expressed his satisfaction, and began to speak: "It's okay to invite everyone here today, but I'm new to the harem, and I should meet the big guys. Now that I see you, there's nothing else to do, go get busy, go back and get busy. "
Everyone wanted to go outside, Li Xuandu added: "All those who were late just now stayed behind, except Eunuch Xi, who can be forgiven for his sympathy, it's because my palace and His Majesty's time collided."
There were eight people who were late, but it was quite a lot. Everyone looked at Eunuch Xi, expecting him to say something, but Eunuch Xi turned and left without even raising an eyelid.
Eunuch Xi is the queen?Everyone couldn't figure out his mind for a while, and they didn't dare to move.
Everyone else left, Li Xuandu said: "It is unreasonable to be late on the first day. I think you are the first offender, so I will forgive you for the time being. But the punishment is still to be punished. All of you, stand in a line and surround yourself. Run here for three laps, this time it's over."
Chapter Thirteen
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, Li Xuandu said: "What? Didn't you hear what I said? Everyone stand in line and start running!" Li Xuandu slightly raised his voice.
They had no choice but to follow Li Xuandu's request.
These people are used to being pampered and pampered on weekdays. Where did they run, and they were sweating profusely after not running far.Li Xuandu shouted: "Run faster, hurry up, whoever runs slower will add more laps."
The few people dared not run away, so they had to speed up. Li Xuandu expressed his satisfaction, and motioned Duofu to watch them. He and the servants entered the hall.
When he came in, a gust of hot air rushed towards his face, it was very warm and comfortable, and Li Xuandu said about the idea of rectifying the harem.
Li Xuandu attached great importance to this meeting. He cleared his throat and said, "That's the thing, the situation is the situation. I hope everyone can participate in the harem affairs. The reward and punishment system in the harem is not perfect now. I I hope everyone can come up with a few strategies to help me formulate the harem regulations."
Shang Lanqiu said with a bit of eccentricity: "Your Highness is the master of the harem, so you can do whatever you want with this matter. Why do you want us?"
"Your Highness, don't take offense. Lan Qiu has a straight temper," Nangong Yuexi said hastily, "He means that His Highness is not satisfied with the plan he proposed is not good."
Nangong Yuexi quietly tugged Shang Lanqiu's sleeve a few more times, and Shang Lanqiu said reluctantly: "That's what I mean."
Li Xuandu waved his hand: "There is nothing good or bad, as long as everyone says what they want to say and what they think of, then everyone will study together, and if they think this strategy is suitable, we will use it, and if it is not suitable, we will not use it, even if it is wrong It doesn’t matter if it’s gone. Let me tell you something first. I went to the Punishment Department today. The people there are really miserable. I can’t even imagine why people would treat a person like that. Obviously he didn’t commit any crimes. What a serious mistake, but you have to suffer that kind of torture. A servant is also a human being, and if you make a mistake, you should be punished a little, but why should you be subjected to such torture? Human life is nothing in their eyes?"
Chen Kaisui said: "Your Highness, have you gone to the Punishment Department?"
Li Xuandu nodded: "I went to see it, and it was very uncomfortable after watching it, so I want to make some changes now."
Lin Changxia said: "Those in power never go down to see it in person. Your Highness is really admirable for having such a heart."
Saying that, he even bowed to Li Xuandu.
Li Xuandu was a little surprised, he vaguely felt that these people seemed to have changed since he said he had gone to the Punishment Department, and he couldn't tell the specifics.
Chen Kaisui is the prime minister's grandson, and he has learned a lot from the prime minister since he was a child, so he said: "It's been a long time since the chaos in the harem has come, and if your highness wants to rectify it, I'm afraid you will encounter many obstacles, but as long as your highness sincerely wants to rectify it, The minister is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for His Highness."
After all, he stood up and saluted Li Xuandu.
As soon as Chen Kaisui mobilized, others responded one after another.
Li Xuandu looked very excited, it felt so good to be supported and trusted.
The next thing will be much easier to handle, and everyone has contributed their ideas and suggestions.What Li Xuandu meant was to formulate a few large frameworks first, then issue them and implement them first, and then fill in and modify small details.
A group of people have been talking until late at night, and many rules and regulations have been formulated.
On the second day, Li Xuandu originally planned to continue discussing the punishment measures, but unexpectedly, Madam Yan came.
Nanny Yan had disappeared since Yang Huaixu fainted, but now she reappeared, Li Xuandu was about to settle accounts with her.
Before the words could be uttered, Mother Yan said first: "Your Highness, today I have to continue learning the rules."
Li Xuandu looked at her: "Nurse Yan, where have you been these two days?"
"Acting according to His Majesty's will is not His Highness's business." Yan Yan's face was still cold.
Li Xuandu said: "You have nothing to do with the fact that the virtuous servant caught the wind and cold. I haven't punished you yet. How dare you come and tell me what rules you want to learn?"
Sister Yan said: "This old slave has already reported this matter to His Majesty." The implication is that it has nothing to do with you, so don't even try to punish me.
Li Xuandu was slightly taken aback, and then thought that it was true, it was not a trivial matter for Yang Huaixu to be sick when he first entered the palace, not to mention that the trouble was caused by taking the medicine prescribed by Shen Mushang.
But seeing Yan Nanny's complacent look, Li Xuandu was furious, and had no choice but to say, "I won't study today, and we'll talk about it when the virtuous servant is ready."
"The nobles have been delayed for a day, and I'm afraid His Majesty will blame you if you delay any longer," Yan Yan said, "The virtuous servant waits for his illness to recover, and the old servant will teach him alone."
"No, we are a whole, we cannot lose one of them," Li Xuandu said, "The condition of Mr. Xianshi has improved a lot, and he will recover in a day or two. It will not be too late to learn by then."
Surprisingly, Yan Momo didn't refute this time: "This old servant will obey His Highness's edict."
After finishing speaking, he resigned. Li Xuandu looked at her back and his eyebrows were twisted into a pimple. He couldn't cure her, so he was not reconciled.
But Li Xuandu was quite happy when Yan Momo left, which was an eyesore, and continued to discuss things with everyone.
After about half an hour, Duofu said: "Your Highness, Eunuch Xi is here and said that His Majesty sent you to Xingle Palace."
Li Xuandu asked casually: "Where is Xingle Palace?"
Duofu said, "It's His Majesty's bedroom."
Li Xuandu: "!" His neck felt cold.
Along the way, Li Xuandu was uneasy and his heart was beating violently.
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and secretly asked Eunuch Xi: "Mr. Xi, do you know why Your Majesty told me?"
Eunuch Xi put on a businesslike look: "The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and this old slave doesn't know."
Li Xuandu asked again: "Is it because I didn't want to learn the rules today to annoy Your Majesty?"
Eunuch Xi still looked the same: "This old slave really doesn't know."
Li Xuandu was utterly remorseful, but if it wasn't for the sentence he saw in the system that the emperor never asked about the affairs of the harem, he wouldn't have dared to do so.Mistake ah misstep.
The road from Zhengyang Palace to Xingle Palace is not short. Zhengyang Palace belongs to the back palace, and Xingle Palace belongs to the front hall.
Li Xuandu hoped that this journey could be longer, longer.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Li Xuandu was, Xingle Palace still arrived.
Entering inside, Li Xuandu didn't dare to look up, lowered his head slightly, and immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live, long live."
"Get up." It was still the same metallic voice that couldn't tell the age.
Li Xuandu stood up slowly from the ground, still not daring to look up.
"Raise your head." Long Yan was very dissatisfied with the way he lowered his head, which prevented him from seeing his face.
Li Xuandu didn't dare to refuse, so he could only slowly raise his head, the silver mask was still in sight.
"My queen looks really beautiful and beautiful, and she has a lot of manners."
Li Xuandu hadn't had time to complain that these two words are not suitable for a man to describe a man, when Long Yan's hand suddenly reached out to his face and stroked it gently.Li Xuandu's hairs stood on end, and goose bumps all over his body.
When I came out of the womb, I was touched on the face by others once. When I was a child, I was touched by the aunt in the orphanage.
Li Xuandu restrained himself hard, although he really wanted to knock off his hand, but he didn't dare.He knew that if he acted impulsively, he would die.
He could only maintain a stiff smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."
Long Yan enjoys the tactile sensation brought by this kind of skin, it is better than imagined, the skin is smooth and tender, it is really like gelatin.His reluctance slipped from his face to his neck, slowly opened, and he felt the fresh life beating under his fingers.As long as he squeezes lightly, just that one, this person will completely disappear from this world.
Li Xuandu looked at the hand on his neck in horror. He was sure that the Lord in front of him was considering whether to strangle him to death.He didn't dare to move, and he didn't dare to breathe, for fear that if one movement was not satisfactory, the tyrant would really pinch him.
"I heard that someone in the harem disrespected you?"
Li Xuandu didn't know how to answer for a while, he said no, the moody emperor wondered if he would feel that he was hypocritical, and thus clicked him.Let's say yes, would he think that he was too incompetent, and if he wanted to change to a queen, he would just click him.
Fortunately, Long Yan continued: "Do you know how I treat those disobedient people?"
Li Xuandu's eyes kept looking at that hand: "I don't know."
Long Yan's hands gradually tightened: "Everyone who is disobedient will be punished..."
It was the second time in Li Xuandu's life that he was so close to death, and the first time was in the fire scene.
"Does the empress understand what I mean?" Long Yan slowly let go of his hand, and continued to caress as before.
"Understood, understood..." I almost peed in fright, okay?
Long Yan continued: "If you are not ruthless, they will not be afraid of you. There is no one who cannot be killed, those servants in the palace, as long as the queen is happy, they can kill them."
Li Xuandu trembled: "Yes, yes."
"The group of people in the harem should have been dealt with," Long Yan whispered in his ear, "Empress Lao will handle this matter."
Li Xuandu hastily agreed: "Minister, I obey the order."
Long Yan expressed his satisfaction, his hand lingered around Li Xuandu's neck, and finally picked up a strand of long hair scattered on his chest, and sniffed it like an idiot.
Li Xuandu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time took another breath. Could this tyrant want to do something to him?
Although he doesn't rule out that his other half will be a man, who hasn't had a longing for love?During his so many years of being single, he also imagined that one day, he would know and love someone, and he would do this kind of thing when the love was strong.But now he has to skip so many steps and hit the home base directly, and he is still faintly disappointed.But everything is more important than life, if the tyrant really wanted to do something to him, he would not dare to resist.
Long Yan wrapped Li Xuandu's long hair around his fingers a few times and played with it: "I heard that the queen can make noodles?"
"Yes, yes." Li Xuandu nodded again and again, knowing that the tyrant must know that he made dinner for several servants, so he asked, "Do you want to eat, Your Majesty? I will go and make it for Your Majesty."
Long Yan let down his long hair: "Okay, I will go with the Queen."
"I'm still here!" He said in a very angry voice.
These little eunuchs and maids seemed to have just realized it, and perfunctorily kowtowed to him.
Li Xuandu came to Zhengyang Palace for only a few days, he was learning the rules and had other things to do, he didn't even visit Zhengyang Palace.I have no contact with these eunuchs and maids, except for one contact during the day.But he still regarded him as his master. Now it seems that he really obeyed Duofu's words and was too kind to them. They thought he was afraid of them and trying to curry favor with them.
It was extremely arrogant, and no matter how he dealt with it, he would climb onto his head.
Li Xuandu didn't ask them to get up, but let them kneel down.
"Have you met all your needs today?" Li Xuandu glanced over them.
"It's in place." The voice was not neat, and it seemed to be perfunctory.
"Liu Dazhuang, Zhang Tiegen, Shen Gouwa, Tuesday Niu," Li Xuandu read out the names he saw just now, "The four names I have read, I will kneel down to the front."
After all, they are young people. They are different from the father-in-law who has been immersed in the harem for a long time. If the master is really angry, they are still afraid, and immediately come out of the crowd and kneel at the front.
Li Xuandu took a sip of tea slowly, and looked at them disdainfully: "What are you doing in Zhengyang Palace?"
"This..." The four of them looked at each other without daring to speak.
"Say it? Why don't you say it?" Li Xuandu lowered his voice, "Liu Dazhuang, tell me."
After being named Liu Dazhuang, he looked at the people kneeling on the ground together, but did not speak.
"Tell me," Li Xuandu's voice was lowered several times, "Didn't you hear my question?"
"Slave, slaves don't dare." Liu Dazhuang said tremblingly.
Li Xuandu said coldly: "Okay, you don't dare, but tell me, what are you doing in Zhengyang Palace?"
Liu Dazhuang didn't dare not say: "Servant, this servant is your personal prisoner, Your Highness the Empress."
"Oh?" Li Xuandu raised his eyelids slightly, and slowly swept them over his body, "Then how many of them are there?"
The three knelt on the ground: "Please forgive me, Your Highness the Queen."
"Forgive me?" Li Xuandu snorted a few times, "Since I'm the internal eunuch with me, why hasn't I seen anyone in the palace for so many days?"
No one dared to speak, just kowtowed their heads lower.
"Tell me, where have you been these few days?" Li Xuandu's voice raised slightly, "Don't tell me, I have plenty of ways for you to talk about it." Once again, thank him for watching so many dramas, he imitated the queen in the drama Well, the appearance of the concubines can also scare people.
The four accompanying internal eunuchs were really scared and trembling, so they could only say tremblingly: "The servants are not going anywhere, they are in Zhengyang Palace. The servants know that they are wrong, please forgive the servants, Your Royal Highness. The servants will never dare again."
"Procrastinate, and go to the Punishment Department first." Li Xuandu pressed his brows, "Don't beat and scold, I will wait for my palace to send you tomorrow."
Immediately, the eunuch in charge of this matter dragged them out, and the atmosphere in the hall was completely different from before, filled with a murderous aura.
Li Xuandu watched quietly for a while, then nodded to Shen Mushang who was sitting next to him: "Let's get started."
Shen Mushang took out the roster: "Everyone whose name I read will stand up."
"Sun Tiezhu."
"Wang Chunsheng."
……
This time, no one dared to be negligent, and they all stood up obediently.
After Shen Mushang read the names, Li Xuandu continued: "You have all seen what happened to those people just now. I have always treated people generously. I can treat you well and solve your various difficulties. But the premise is that, You have to abide by the rules, don't try to ride on Ben Gong's head. Anyone who dares to break the rules will be severely punished!"
The servants all knelt down on the ground: "Slaves dare not."
Li Xuandu nodded, waved his hand: "It's all right, let's go down."
While walking, Li Xuandu asked Duofu: "Is there any method of reward and punishment in the palace?" He hasn't figured out what to do with those four people yet.
Duofu replied: "No, only punishment, no reward. As for what and how to punish, it all depends on the wishes of the masters."
Li Xuandu nodded, which was also expected: "Then we must work out a reward and punishment method first, and I have to think about it."
He knew that the incident in Zhengyang Palace was just the beginning, and there would be tougher battles to be fought in the future.
In the morning of the next day, Li Xuandu woke up early with something in his heart, and it was still dark when he looked outside.
"What time is it?" Li Xuandu asked.
Duo Fu said: "Just now, the servants were already waiting in the hall, and the stewards of various ministries were waiting in the courtyard."
It's still the first lunar month, and the weather is still very cold. Fortunately, there are earth dragons in Zhengyang Palace, so it's warm.
Li Xuandu washed and changed his clothes: "How is Huaixu?"
"Xian Shijun has just taken the medicine, and it seems to be better." Duofu said.
Li Xuandu nodded, relieved a lot.
He went out, first met the servants of the palaces, and then explained to them: "I have something to discuss with you today, but we have to go out and have a look first."
When we arrived in the courtyard, a group of people lined up. It was cold and everyone was wearing cloaks. More than a dozen people stood shoulder to shoulder, each with their own charm, as beautiful as a painting.Li Xuandu stood in the middle and asked, "Is everyone here?"
Duofu presented the roster, and Li Xuandu motioned him to Lin Changxia who was standing beside him.
Lin Changxia is the son of Dali Siqing, the highest judicial organ in the country, and he must be fair and honest.
Lin Changxia took the roster in his hand and began to read: "Xi Deshun, Chief Supervisor of Rites—"
"Head of the Rites Supervisor, Xi Deshun—"
"Head of the Rites Supervisor, Xi Deshun—"
Lin Changxia read it three times in a row, and the people below snickered.
Li Xuandu cleared his throat and looked at the leader's father-in-law: "Wang Gonggong, why didn't Xi Gonggong come?"
The people below were very proud and laughed secretly in their hearts, what a stick.
Duofu hurriedly said: "At this time, Eunuch Xi should accompany His Majesty to court."
Li Xuandu put on a face: "Understood, let him come to see me when he comes down."
He knew that Eunuch Xi would not listen to him, and he did this just to show off to this group of people, to let them understand that he was not even afraid of Eunuch Xi.
Sure enough, as soon as this remark came out, there was a lot of silence below.
Lin Changxia went on to read: "Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor——"
"Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor—"
"Wang Fuhai, the head of the Royal Horse Supervisor—"
Lian Nian and the three of them didn't answer again, just as Li Xuandu was about to ask, an old eunuch in his 60s came slowly outside, with a big stomach: "The servant is——"
Everyone gave way one after another, Wang Fuhai walked to the front, straightened his clothes casually, and said very disdainfully: "Your Majesty the Queen, please be respectful, servants."
Li Xuandu and Lin Changxia looked at each other, and didn't ask him to get up, just let him kneel like that: "Wang Fuhai, when does the palace ask you to come?"
Wang Fuhai had a high rank and high status in the palace, so he didn't pay much attention to Li Xuandu: "The servant has something to do."
"Your business is more important than my palace's will?" Li Xuandu said, "Could it be possible that you also drove with Wang Ban like Eunuch Xi?"
Wang Fuhai came late on purpose, he just wanted to kill Li Xuandu's vigor.
"Chang Xia, write him down, and then roll the roll." Li Xuandu looked at it, "Lan Qiu Ji, you call him Ji."
Nangong Yuexi, who was standing beside Shang Lanqiu, said, "Your Highness, let me come."
Li Xuandu nodded, and asked someone to fetch a table, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Nangong Yuexi wrote Wang Fuhai's name on it.
What Wang Fuhai wanted to say, Lin Changxia didn't give him a chance, and continued to read.
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
"The father-in-law Liu Mancang—"
Lin Changxia yelled three more times, and someone came out from below and said, "Your Highness, the father-in-law in charge was killed by His Majesty last night."
"Killed?" Li Xuandu was taken aback, "What happened?"
The man said: "I don't know."
Li Xuandu didn't take it seriously, after all he knew that the emperor was a tyrant, and it was normal to kill a servant.
He told Lin Changxia that the next two people went well, and they all came, but after reading a few words, they still didn't come, and they said they had something to do.
Li Xuandu knew in his heart that this was intentional, and he was trying to show him off.
He didn't say anything, but asked Nangong Yuexi to write down all the names.
While reciting the name, some people came one after another.
This time, all the main leaders of various departments came, a total of 24 eunuchs, and some female officials.Therefore, the time for roll call was not long. After Lin Changxia finished reading the last name, a voice sounded outside: "Your Highness, the old slave is late."
This voice was so familiar, everyone looked over, but unexpectedly, Eunuch Xi came.
Eunuch Xi walked inside with a fly whisk in his hand, and when he walked in the front, he bowed and saluted: "This old slave is to Your Highness, all servants, please greet me."
Li Xuandu's heart was beating like a drum, he didn't expect him to come, every time he showed up, nothing good happened, he always came with the emperor's will.He looked him around, but he didn't take the imperial decree, and then slowly calmed down: "Get up, Eunuch Nianxi wants to serve His Majesty, so it's fine if you come late today." He pretended to say a lot.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." Eunuch Xi cupped his hands again.
The expressions on the faces of the people below were really exciting, no one expected that Eunuch Xi would come.Eunuch Xi is the head of the harem, and he is highly respected. Everyone is afraid of him. Once he comes, no one dares to be presumptuous, so he stands obediently.
Li Xuandu expressed his satisfaction, and began to speak: "It's okay to invite everyone here today, but I'm new to the harem, and I should meet the big guys. Now that I see you, there's nothing else to do, go get busy, go back and get busy. "
Everyone wanted to go outside, Li Xuandu added: "All those who were late just now stayed behind, except Eunuch Xi, who can be forgiven for his sympathy, it's because my palace and His Majesty's time collided."
There were eight people who were late, but it was quite a lot. Everyone looked at Eunuch Xi, expecting him to say something, but Eunuch Xi turned and left without even raising an eyelid.
Eunuch Xi is the queen?Everyone couldn't figure out his mind for a while, and they didn't dare to move.
Everyone else left, Li Xuandu said: "It is unreasonable to be late on the first day. I think you are the first offender, so I will forgive you for the time being. But the punishment is still to be punished. All of you, stand in a line and surround yourself. Run here for three laps, this time it's over."
Chapter Thirteen
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, Li Xuandu said: "What? Didn't you hear what I said? Everyone stand in line and start running!" Li Xuandu slightly raised his voice.
They had no choice but to follow Li Xuandu's request.
These people are used to being pampered and pampered on weekdays. Where did they run, and they were sweating profusely after not running far.Li Xuandu shouted: "Run faster, hurry up, whoever runs slower will add more laps."
The few people dared not run away, so they had to speed up. Li Xuandu expressed his satisfaction, and motioned Duofu to watch them. He and the servants entered the hall.
When he came in, a gust of hot air rushed towards his face, it was very warm and comfortable, and Li Xuandu said about the idea of rectifying the harem.
Li Xuandu attached great importance to this meeting. He cleared his throat and said, "That's the thing, the situation is the situation. I hope everyone can participate in the harem affairs. The reward and punishment system in the harem is not perfect now. I I hope everyone can come up with a few strategies to help me formulate the harem regulations."
Shang Lanqiu said with a bit of eccentricity: "Your Highness is the master of the harem, so you can do whatever you want with this matter. Why do you want us?"
"Your Highness, don't take offense. Lan Qiu has a straight temper," Nangong Yuexi said hastily, "He means that His Highness is not satisfied with the plan he proposed is not good."
Nangong Yuexi quietly tugged Shang Lanqiu's sleeve a few more times, and Shang Lanqiu said reluctantly: "That's what I mean."
Li Xuandu waved his hand: "There is nothing good or bad, as long as everyone says what they want to say and what they think of, then everyone will study together, and if they think this strategy is suitable, we will use it, and if it is not suitable, we will not use it, even if it is wrong It doesn’t matter if it’s gone. Let me tell you something first. I went to the Punishment Department today. The people there are really miserable. I can’t even imagine why people would treat a person like that. Obviously he didn’t commit any crimes. What a serious mistake, but you have to suffer that kind of torture. A servant is also a human being, and if you make a mistake, you should be punished a little, but why should you be subjected to such torture? Human life is nothing in their eyes?"
Chen Kaisui said: "Your Highness, have you gone to the Punishment Department?"
Li Xuandu nodded: "I went to see it, and it was very uncomfortable after watching it, so I want to make some changes now."
Lin Changxia said: "Those in power never go down to see it in person. Your Highness is really admirable for having such a heart."
Saying that, he even bowed to Li Xuandu.
Li Xuandu was a little surprised, he vaguely felt that these people seemed to have changed since he said he had gone to the Punishment Department, and he couldn't tell the specifics.
Chen Kaisui is the prime minister's grandson, and he has learned a lot from the prime minister since he was a child, so he said: "It's been a long time since the chaos in the harem has come, and if your highness wants to rectify it, I'm afraid you will encounter many obstacles, but as long as your highness sincerely wants to rectify it, The minister is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for His Highness."
After all, he stood up and saluted Li Xuandu.
As soon as Chen Kaisui mobilized, others responded one after another.
Li Xuandu looked very excited, it felt so good to be supported and trusted.
The next thing will be much easier to handle, and everyone has contributed their ideas and suggestions.What Li Xuandu meant was to formulate a few large frameworks first, then issue them and implement them first, and then fill in and modify small details.
A group of people have been talking until late at night, and many rules and regulations have been formulated.
On the second day, Li Xuandu originally planned to continue discussing the punishment measures, but unexpectedly, Madam Yan came.
Nanny Yan had disappeared since Yang Huaixu fainted, but now she reappeared, Li Xuandu was about to settle accounts with her.
Before the words could be uttered, Mother Yan said first: "Your Highness, today I have to continue learning the rules."
Li Xuandu looked at her: "Nurse Yan, where have you been these two days?"
"Acting according to His Majesty's will is not His Highness's business." Yan Yan's face was still cold.
Li Xuandu said: "You have nothing to do with the fact that the virtuous servant caught the wind and cold. I haven't punished you yet. How dare you come and tell me what rules you want to learn?"
Sister Yan said: "This old slave has already reported this matter to His Majesty." The implication is that it has nothing to do with you, so don't even try to punish me.
Li Xuandu was slightly taken aback, and then thought that it was true, it was not a trivial matter for Yang Huaixu to be sick when he first entered the palace, not to mention that the trouble was caused by taking the medicine prescribed by Shen Mushang.
But seeing Yan Nanny's complacent look, Li Xuandu was furious, and had no choice but to say, "I won't study today, and we'll talk about it when the virtuous servant is ready."
"The nobles have been delayed for a day, and I'm afraid His Majesty will blame you if you delay any longer," Yan Yan said, "The virtuous servant waits for his illness to recover, and the old servant will teach him alone."
"No, we are a whole, we cannot lose one of them," Li Xuandu said, "The condition of Mr. Xianshi has improved a lot, and he will recover in a day or two. It will not be too late to learn by then."
Surprisingly, Yan Momo didn't refute this time: "This old servant will obey His Highness's edict."
After finishing speaking, he resigned. Li Xuandu looked at her back and his eyebrows were twisted into a pimple. He couldn't cure her, so he was not reconciled.
But Li Xuandu was quite happy when Yan Momo left, which was an eyesore, and continued to discuss things with everyone.
After about half an hour, Duofu said: "Your Highness, Eunuch Xi is here and said that His Majesty sent you to Xingle Palace."
Li Xuandu asked casually: "Where is Xingle Palace?"
Duofu said, "It's His Majesty's bedroom."
Li Xuandu: "!" His neck felt cold.
Along the way, Li Xuandu was uneasy and his heart was beating violently.
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and secretly asked Eunuch Xi: "Mr. Xi, do you know why Your Majesty told me?"
Eunuch Xi put on a businesslike look: "The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and this old slave doesn't know."
Li Xuandu asked again: "Is it because I didn't want to learn the rules today to annoy Your Majesty?"
Eunuch Xi still looked the same: "This old slave really doesn't know."
Li Xuandu was utterly remorseful, but if it wasn't for the sentence he saw in the system that the emperor never asked about the affairs of the harem, he wouldn't have dared to do so.Mistake ah misstep.
The road from Zhengyang Palace to Xingle Palace is not short. Zhengyang Palace belongs to the back palace, and Xingle Palace belongs to the front hall.
Li Xuandu hoped that this journey could be longer, longer.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Li Xuandu was, Xingle Palace still arrived.
Entering inside, Li Xuandu didn't dare to look up, lowered his head slightly, and immediately saluted: "Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live, long live."
"Get up." It was still the same metallic voice that couldn't tell the age.
Li Xuandu stood up slowly from the ground, still not daring to look up.
"Raise your head." Long Yan was very dissatisfied with the way he lowered his head, which prevented him from seeing his face.
Li Xuandu didn't dare to refuse, so he could only slowly raise his head, the silver mask was still in sight.
"My queen looks really beautiful and beautiful, and she has a lot of manners."
Li Xuandu hadn't had time to complain that these two words are not suitable for a man to describe a man, when Long Yan's hand suddenly reached out to his face and stroked it gently.Li Xuandu's hairs stood on end, and goose bumps all over his body.
When I came out of the womb, I was touched on the face by others once. When I was a child, I was touched by the aunt in the orphanage.
Li Xuandu restrained himself hard, although he really wanted to knock off his hand, but he didn't dare.He knew that if he acted impulsively, he would die.
He could only maintain a stiff smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."
Long Yan enjoys the tactile sensation brought by this kind of skin, it is better than imagined, the skin is smooth and tender, it is really like gelatin.His reluctance slipped from his face to his neck, slowly opened, and he felt the fresh life beating under his fingers.As long as he squeezes lightly, just that one, this person will completely disappear from this world.
Li Xuandu looked at the hand on his neck in horror. He was sure that the Lord in front of him was considering whether to strangle him to death.He didn't dare to move, and he didn't dare to breathe, for fear that if one movement was not satisfactory, the tyrant would really pinch him.
"I heard that someone in the harem disrespected you?"
Li Xuandu didn't know how to answer for a while, he said no, the moody emperor wondered if he would feel that he was hypocritical, and thus clicked him.Let's say yes, would he think that he was too incompetent, and if he wanted to change to a queen, he would just click him.
Fortunately, Long Yan continued: "Do you know how I treat those disobedient people?"
Li Xuandu's eyes kept looking at that hand: "I don't know."
Long Yan's hands gradually tightened: "Everyone who is disobedient will be punished..."
It was the second time in Li Xuandu's life that he was so close to death, and the first time was in the fire scene.
"Does the empress understand what I mean?" Long Yan slowly let go of his hand, and continued to caress as before.
"Understood, understood..." I almost peed in fright, okay?
Long Yan continued: "If you are not ruthless, they will not be afraid of you. There is no one who cannot be killed, those servants in the palace, as long as the queen is happy, they can kill them."
Li Xuandu trembled: "Yes, yes."
"The group of people in the harem should have been dealt with," Long Yan whispered in his ear, "Empress Lao will handle this matter."
Li Xuandu hastily agreed: "Minister, I obey the order."
Long Yan expressed his satisfaction, his hand lingered around Li Xuandu's neck, and finally picked up a strand of long hair scattered on his chest, and sniffed it like an idiot.
Li Xuandu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time took another breath. Could this tyrant want to do something to him?
Although he doesn't rule out that his other half will be a man, who hasn't had a longing for love?During his so many years of being single, he also imagined that one day, he would know and love someone, and he would do this kind of thing when the love was strong.But now he has to skip so many steps and hit the home base directly, and he is still faintly disappointed.But everything is more important than life, if the tyrant really wanted to do something to him, he would not dare to resist.
Long Yan wrapped Li Xuandu's long hair around his fingers a few times and played with it: "I heard that the queen can make noodles?"
"Yes, yes." Li Xuandu nodded again and again, knowing that the tyrant must know that he made dinner for several servants, so he asked, "Do you want to eat, Your Majesty? I will go and make it for Your Majesty."
Long Yan let down his long hair: "Okay, I will go with the Queen."
