Concubine He was the only side concubine of the crown prince when Emperor Tianren was the crown prince. After ascending the throne, he was naturally the only woman in the concubine position in the harem.Therefore, she is in charge of the harem alone. This is the first draft since Emperor Tianren came to the throne, and she is extremely careful in organizing it.

Because of Pingting's request, Ren Fengjiang wrote a letter to Mr. Yuan, asking him to take care of him.Ren Fengjiang had been kind to Mr. Yuan in saving his life, so Mr. Yuan, who received this letter, did his best and sent his wife to the harem to greet his concubine.Concubine He's natal family is from the same lineage as Lord Yuan, so naturally she won't lose face.What's more, the Queen Mother has been suppressing her recently, and she also needs a woman to help him catch His Majesty, and she is more at ease with the one recommended by her family.

Therefore, under the secret care of the concubine, Pingting passed the test all the way. After two rounds of drafts, she was named Ji Shi (one level higher than the draft girl, appointed by the concubine. She is eligible to be arranged by the concubine) .There are more than 40 people who can be named Ji Shi together with her, and His Majesty will personally participate in the remaining round.

A group of slender and graceful women with beautiful branches were kneeling upright in the hall, and sitting directly above them was their common husband—Emperor Tianren.Today, Pingting was only wearing the auspicious dress uniformly issued by the palace, and her black hair was only coiled up in the usual "willow eyebrow temples", she was not dressed up like the others to attract attention.

She did not forget that not only Emperor Tianren sat on it, but also the Empress Dowager and Concubine He.It's too brilliant, it will indeed get His Majesty's attention, but at the same time it will get the disgust of the other two.She had already gained His Majesty's attention before anyone knew it, so what she wants to get today is the favor of the other two.

One by one, women walked past the three people in high positions, and soon it was Pingting's turn.

"Wang's Pingting, see Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, and Concubine." According to what she learned when she was a show girl, Pingting knelt down on the ground and saluted in an orderly manner.The voice was clear and pleasant, and the back and neck formed a soft arc in front of the three of them.The misfortune of the past month has already made Pingting, who was originally round and round, quickly lose weight, and her figure is graceful and slender. Now she is really worthy of the word "Pingting".However, the iconic round face has not changed much.

Her introduction moved both Xiao Tianhong and Concubine He's hearts at the same time, but there was no emotion on their faces.

"Raise your head." Xiao Tianhong's voice was hoarse and full of magnetism, with the majesty of a superior that made it impossible to refuse.

Obediently, Pingting slowly straightened her body, raised her head slowly, and looked timidly but curiously at the three above.There is curiosity, awe, and joy in the eyes, but there is no ambition or desire, only the clarity and innocence unique to girls.

When looking at him, her eyes dodged a little, but she still couldn't help sticking to him.Seeing him also looking at her, there seemed to be a gleam of light in his pleasantly surprised eyes, such pure happiness made Xiao Tianhong suddenly feel depressed and uncomfortable.

Someone once looked at him with such eyes, but he lost it...

"Wang's Pingting? Where is it from?" Xiao Tianhong asked a formulaic question, no different from others.

"Return to Your Majesty, this servant is from Zezhou." Pingting lowered her head and replied respectfully.

Zezhou?Xiao Tianhong was slightly taken aback.

He remembered this girl, the guard at Longquan Office reported to him that she had conflicted with Zheng Wan'er that day.At that time, he was only displeased with Zheng Waner's arrogance and domineering, and felt that the girl was interesting, so he asked her name, and he still remembered when he heard the word "Pingting", he imagined what kind of beauty would be worthy of such a girl. name.But he was not a lustful person after all, after asking a casual question, he ordered someone to invite the imperial physician to show her, and the matter was exposed.

Unexpectedly, today she looked very ordinary in appearance, but those big round eyes were lively and innocent, as if she had known each other before.Once he heard that she was from Zezhou, his mind could no longer sink.His eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will be conferred as a concubine, and I will be given the word Chun. Let's go to bed tonight."

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked.

The previous auspicious officials were not lacking in real beauties, but they were just conferred nobles.But such an ordinary-looking woman from Zezhou was unexpectedly promoted to be a lucky concubine!You must know that although "fu concubine" is only one level higher than "noble man", it is second only to "concubine".If you are promoted to a concubine, you no longer need to call yourself a slave, but a concubine!At this level, the fundamental difference is not from a nobleman to a concubine, but from a slave to a master!

What's more, His Majesty actually left a sign on the spot to attend bed at night? !What kind of ability does this woman have, that she can make His Majesty look at her differently when she first sees her?

For a moment, everyone looked at Pingting, either inquiring, jealous, or pleased... It was complicated.Pingting thanked Grace with surprise on her face, but her heart was already in turmoil.She never thought that His Majesty would treat her like this!Although it is true that she has won the favor of His Majesty today, it is also tantamount to pushing her to the forefront. Didn't you see that Zheng Wan'er's piercing gaze almost wanted to eat her? !Even the Empress Dowager's eyes were filled with chills!

After the farewell ceremony, Pingting stood aside in a dignified manner, but no one knew that she was almost drenched in cold sweat.She has no way out!Since His Majesty brought her out today, she can only cling to this big tree tightly until the day she doesn't have to fear these women.

Thinking of this, Pingting felt a little relieved.Tonight is an opportunity that must be seized.

That night.

Pingting was only wearing her bellyband, and she was curled up in the middle of the red quilt with her limbs naked.The freshly bathed hair is not completely dry, and the scent of laurel still lingers on the skin.She ate very little for dinner, only a few mouthfuls of sweet pastries.The nanny who was sent to teach the rules said that she was afraid that if she ate sundries, the smell in her mouth would offend His Majesty.

Pingting turned over, buried her head in the soft pillow, and sneered.

It's still the day.Although I was ready when I made the decision, when this day really came, I still couldn't restrain my sadness and self-deprecation.She asked the person she loved to send her to someone else's bed; she asked the person she loved to provide information for her; she made herself and the person she loved never see each other again.

The people in the room had already evacuated, and in this bright red room, under the flickering candles, only she could cry and laugh.This kind of sadness and joy that can be undisguised will not be available in the future, right?

He obviously wanted to cry, but there was only emptiness in his eyes.

"Pingting?" A magnetic and hoarse male voice suddenly sounded not far away.

Pingting suddenly looked up at him, seeing Xiao Tianhong who came in without knowing when, she immediately got up and wanted to salute.Just as I raised my arms, I suddenly felt a chill on my body, and then I remembered that I was not naked, and my face turned red, and I lay back on my stomach again.She just looked at him in embarrassment, unable to speak.

Her jerky performance made him smile slightly, and his stern face softened a little. This smile had a somewhat bewitching taste against his unusually handsome face, which made Pingting stunned for a moment.

"There is a small cabinet next to the bed. There are clothes in it. You can put them on." Xiao Tianhong suddenly turned his back and ordered.

Pingting was stunned again, not understanding what he meant.But since he ordered, he could only obey, so he opened the small cabinet next to the bed as he said, neatly put on the middle clothes with his hands and feet, and then said in a low voice: "Chenqie, get dressed."

Only then did Xiao Tianhong turn around, glanced at her, and nodded, instead of going to the bed, he leaned on the tea table opposite her and sat down.Pingting was taken aback for a moment, then immediately got up to get the teacup, picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for him.

Xiao Tianhong looked at her indifferently, motioned her to sit down with no emotion on his face, and then said, "Are you from Zezhou?"

"Return to Your Majesty, this concubine is from Zezhou." Pingting nodded.

"How are the people in Zezhou doing?" Pingting was stunned by the sudden question.

Pingting secretly wondered what His Majesty was going to do?Why ask these?No matter how puzzled I was, I still answered respectfully and cautiously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty governs the country with benevolence, and the people of Zezhou are also under the quilt, so naturally they live and work in peace and contentment."

Xiao Tianhong frowned, a little impatient with these compliments: "That's not what I want to ask. After Old General Ren returned to Zezhou, the pirates have been calmed down a lot, right? The Ren family really helped me keep the side safe. "

There was no emotion in these words, and Pingting didn't know how to respond.Is His Majesty sincerely praising her, or is she secretly afraid?After thinking about it, he went around and answered directly: "How can the little water pirates compete with my magnificent country." Never mentioning the Ren family.

Xiao Tianhong, who was drinking tea, took a deep breath, then put down the teacup in his hand, and sighed: "Ren Feng is also a major general, as expected, he is a tiger father and has no dogs. This Ren family is full of generals!" After a pause, he said again: "Speaking of which, Ren Ren's child has also followed, I hope he can inherit the skills of his father and brother."

When he mentioned his sweetheart, Pingting was a little surprised, she temporarily forgot her previous precautions, and asked, "Your Majesty knows Ren Ren?"

"Of course." Xiao Tianhong laughed softly, "When I was the crown prince, he was my companion. He has been by my side for more than a year." As he spoke, he looked nostalgic.Under the flickering candlelight, there seems to be a flash of sadness, so fast that people think it is an illusion.

Suddenly, Pingting understood why Ren Ren knew His Majesty's preferences.

I don't know if it's because Ren Ren is his sweetheart, but because the two have a mutual acquaintance, Pingting's defense against Xiao Tianhong immediately dropped a bit.For the first time since being stuck here for more than a month, she was able to talk about the person she loved, and she felt a little joyful.Pingting covered her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty is going to be disappointed. Second Young Master Ren failed to become a general, but became a miracle doctor."

"Oh? What's going on?" Xiao Tianhong looked at her with interest and asked.In fact, he already knew these things from his eyeliner, but he still wanted to hear the stories from those who had experienced them, to hear every detail and every moment.It seems like this, he can imagine that person's expression, that person's eyebrows, everything about that person.

Fortunately, although Pingting was happy, she did not lose her mind.It only mentioned Ren Ren's well-known free clinic in Zezhou and the life lawsuit involved in it, but did not mention her relationship with Ren Ren at all.

So, the night passed quietly while a young emperor kept asking questions and slowly talking to the young woman.
