The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Recently, the emperor prefers to come to Xihe Palace, but he doesn't have sex every night. Zhuang Luoyan found that Emperor Chengxuan is a very self-controlled emperor.

When the emperor is not having sex, he will tell her some trivial matters that do not involve court affairs, and sometimes even discuss various monsters in the Book of Mountains and Seas. Zhuang Luoyan thought that it was probably because the emperor found that talking about poetry and poetry with her was like playing the piano with a cow, and talking about strange things could arouse her curiosity.

In the middle of the mountain, there is a beast. It looks like a horse with a white body and black tail. It has one horn, tiger teeth and claws, and its sound is like the sound of a drum. Its name is Bu. It eats tigers and leopards and can defend soldiers.

It's rare to grow up like this, Zhuang Luoyan couldn't help but said after listening to this paragraph, It looks like a horse, but it has claws like a tiger. With such a body structure, it shouldn't be able to run fast. Eat the fast-running leopard?

So this is just a legend, Feng Jin listened to the disgust in Zhuang Luoyan's words, and said with a smile: If there is such a strange thing in the world, I am afraid that any emperor will compete for it, who can resist the war? dislike?

If you say that, your majesty, if you see which country is dissatisfied, you don't have to do anything else. Just throw away a fat leftover that can only cause drought or a long right that can cause floods. Wouldn't it save a lot of trouble? Zhuang Luo Yan yawned, I'm coaxing the kids.

People in the world are in awe of gods and monsters. As an emperor, Feng Jin doesn't like the people to be too awed by gods and monsters. Unfortunately, this kind of awe has already been imprinted in the bones of the people. He took advantage of this to control the hearts of the people. There was an indescribable feeling for such a straightforward disdain for the legendary beast.

Sometimes how much knowledge a person has has nothing to do with how many poems and books he has in his belly, and the ministers who should be used are not necessarily the top scholars, but they are extremely capable.

So this is just a fairy tale, Feng Jin laughed, stroked Zhuang Luoyan's hair for a while, and sighed softly, If governing the world is so easy, it's getting late, go to sleep .”

Hearing the emperor's sigh, Zhuang Luoyan felt a little emotional, as expected, all ambitious emperors never believed in myths. However, when using gods and monsters, they are not relentless at all.

Waking up in the morning, Feng Jin looked at the woman nestled in his arms, lay down for a while, and then let the palace servant waiting outside the curtain come in to serve him. After getting dressed, he turned his head and looked at the bed. Someone on the bed looked like he was about to open his eyes in a daze, and stretched his hand unconsciously towards the place where he was sleeping. Then he slowly woke up and opened his misty eyes.

The emperor is awake? Zhuang Luoyan didn't seem to expect that she would fall into such a deep sleep, and sat up in embarrassment, pulling the hair on her chest, I slept a little deeper.

I don't blame you, I chatted with you for a long time last night, Feng Jin raised his head and asked the maid to straighten her robe collar, Take a good rest, I will be very tired when I go to the fields tomorrow, the people from the Qin Tianjian said, tomorrow will be a day of sleep. sunny day.

Zhuang Luoyan got off the bed, asked the maid to step aside, and arranged the accessories and clothes for the emperor herself. She squatted down and hung an inconspicuous sachet on the emperor's waist, and looked up at the emperor: Your Majesty, This sachet is very suitable for you to carry.

Feng Jin looked down and saw that it was a dull-colored sachet with a dark red base, a soaring golden dragon was embroidered with gold thread, and the deep red Tuanfu character was used as a dark pattern, which really complemented the majestic dragon robe.

Reaching out to lift Zhuang Luoyan's chin, Feng Jin suddenly bent down and touched her, and said with a smile: The sachet embroidered by my concubine is perfect, I like it very much. After finishing speaking, he turned and walked out of Xi'an. and palace.

Respectfully send off the emperor, Zhuang Luoyan watched the emperor's back disappear behind the door, stood up slowly, stroked the corners of his lips, and smiled lightly with lowered eyes, Come here, take a bath and change clothes for me.

Yun Xi carefully helped Zhuang Luorou out of the bathtub, put Zhuang Luorou on brocade clothes, and carefully massaged the black hair with sesame oil. Seeing Zhuang Luorou's absent-minded appearance, she couldn't help but said: My lady, tomorrow's harem There is a noble person in the entourage, and this servant feels that this noble person is really not simple.

Zhuang Luoyan closed her eyes and said: There are no simple people in the harem, what are noble people? The most terrifying thing in this harem is the woman who is not fading.

Hearing what the master said, Yun Xi immediately thought of Concubine Shu in Anqing Palace, and couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring. No one in the harem could surpass Concubine Shu. Although Qiangui's appearance is the most beautiful in the harem, but compared with Shugui Concubine in other aspects, it is much worse. Serving people with sex in the harem has always been only a moment of glory.

After Grain Rain, it is a good time to transplant rice seedlings. Zhuang Luoyan sat upright in the carriage, stroking her hair wrapped in a cloth towel, twisting her body in discomfort.

I have lived a luxurious life for too long, I am used to wearing silk and satin, and suddenly I am not used to wearing coarse linen clothes, I always feel itchy all over my body.

Arriving at the field in the suburbs of Beijing, Zhuang Luoyan helped the maid's hand out of the car, looked around, and saw that there were crowds of people watching the fun outside the hands of many officers and soldiers, but there were people hanging on the taller trees. , Some high soil slopes are also crowded with densely packed people.

Sure enough, it is human nature to join in the fun throughout the ages. Zhuang Luoyan strode generously to the queen's back, and happened to see the noble lady scratching her arms, as if she was very uncomfortable with the coarse clothes on her body.

There are always some people in this world who eat what the common people grow, but feel that they are noble and innocent, and look down on those who work in the fields, but unfortunately they don't know that they are no different from all the people in the world, and their stomachs are filled with the same food. Package waste.

Originally, Zhuang Luoyan felt that although Qiangui was noble and innocent, at least she was not a woman who pretended to be noble but looked down on the common people, but now she understood that she was the one who looked up to her.

If Mrs. Qiangui is not feeling well, there is no need to come out. The queen looked at Mrs. Qiangui's demeanor with a sullen face. Everyone standing here now represents the image of the royal family in every word and deed. Who can see Mrs. Qiangui like this? ? Is it to let the emperor know that her skin can be broken by blowing bullets, or to let the people present feel that the royal family is a rich and idle person who can't bear hardships and only knows how to enjoy?

When Qiangui heard the Queen's words, her complexion suddenly changed, she could only bend over and beg, her white and tender neck was exposed to the sun, looking a little pitiful.

The emperor and I brought you here today not for your enjoyment. Since you have already realized your mistake, you have put on this weak and unrefined appearance. In the harem, no matter what the people in the harem are, The empress would not reprimand her for going too far, but in today's occasion, as the lord of the first palace, she absolutely couldn't tolerate anything wrong.

The emperor who stood in front of the queen did not open his mouth from the beginning to the end, nor did he look at Qiangui. After the queen reprimanded her, the emperor took the queen's hand, and the two went to the altar together, offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, offering sacrifices to wind and rain, and begging God Bless the entire land of Kyushu with good weather.

Zhuang Luoyan and several other concubines knelt behind the empress, they were not qualified to go to the altar, they could only lead everyone to kneel behind, and the people all over the mountains and plains also knelt down at this time, praying devoutly to heaven.

After the sacrifice, the emperor went to the field with his trousers on his arms, took a bundle of seedlings in a dignified manner, and planted the seedlings along the thread that had been drawn earlier.

The water in April was still a bit chilly, Zhuang Luoyan shuddered after following the queen to the paddy field, and then rolled up her sleeves and seriously planted the seedlings.

Although Zhuang Luoyan's movements were not proficient, she still had a good look. When she was slowly inserting her hand, she suddenly heard a cry and looked back in fright. Huarong's pale appearance kept retreating towards the bank, but she staggered and fell into the field, the originally beautiful beauty suddenly turned into a clay figurine. Seeing this situation, the two powerful eunuchs hurried forward to help Qiangui to the ridge of the field, so as not to let the common people see this embarrassing scene.

What's going on? Feng Jin frowned, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

Returning to the emperor, it was Qiangui who bit a leech on his leg, an eunuch quickly stepped forward and replied, the imperial doctor has already treated Qiangui.

Since Qiangui is not feeling well, let's help her into the carriage. Feng Jin shook the water in his hand, It's sunny today, so let her not come out.

How cruel and bloody it is for a delicate woman to bite a leech on her leg. Zhuang Luoyan felt a little sympathetic to Mrs. Qiangui, and this kind of good thing happened just after she went to the field.

After the seedlings were planted, the emperor, empress and concubines went up to the ridge together. Zhuang Luoyan saw a disgusting leech hanging on the emperor's calf. He patted his legs without blinking, and then scraped off the sucked locusts with a dagger.

Zhuang Luoyan's scalp was a little numb, the emperor was indeed a ruthless person, not only ruthless to others, but also ruthless to himself.

The eunuchs quickly brought stools and clean water, and now the masters don't want to be waited on. They all washed the muddy water off their legs in the copper basin, and then went to visit the rice seedling fields of the common people with the emperor.

Because the rain is good and the sun is abundant, the seedlings grow very well. The farmers bundled the seedlings and picked them into the well-fertilized paddy fields, and they were much more skilled than these people.

Looking at the rows of neatly planted seedlings, Feng Jin said with emotion, I hope this year's harvest will be better than last year's.

The emperor is benevolent, under your rule, the weather will be smooth and the weather will be smooth, and the people's lives will get better and better, the queen said after hearing the words, The people in the world also love you.

But please be clear in your heart, Feng Jin didn't react much to the queen's compliment, but just said this lightly, then turned around to see Zhuang Luoyan tiptoing over him and the queen to see the peasants planting rice seedlings, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, retracted Looking at the queen, he said, It's late now, it's time to go back to the palace.

Until the emperor boarded the royal driver back to the palace, no one mentioned Qianguiren, as if this person had never appeared from the beginning to the end.

Qianguiren's carriage was behind Zhuang Luoyan's carriage. When Zhuang Luoyan got on the carriage, she looked back at Qianguiren's carriage, and there was a faint sobbing sound coming from inside. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and then got into the carriage as usual.

This Qiangui is really lucky. He encountered such a disgusting thing just after he left the field, Yun Xi knelt in front of Zhuang Luoyan, carefully wiping Zhuang Luoyan's calf.

Zhuang Luoyan smiled. She originally thought that it was hypocritical for Qiangui to scratch her back and forth as soon as she got off the carriage, but now she understands that Qiangui would not do such inappropriate things on such occasions unless It's really itchy.

Even if Qiangui could bear the itch, the subsequent leech incident was enough to make her unbearable, it was because someone was playing tricks on Qiangui.

If this incident happens, I'm afraid there will be another small farce in the harem.
