Chapter 1209: Concubinage

1209. Concubinage

Hurriedly came out of the conference hall and went straight to his small courtyard, looking at Nian Xia's rather anxious appearance, and frequently looking at himself with strange eyes, Li Pojun was also full of puzzlement.

As he walked, he asked, "Nian Xia, why is Yan'er sad?" Why are you still crying? ”

Nian Xia pouted when she heard this, looked at Li Pojun, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous, and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, when the crown princess was resting, she heard a woman's voice in the backyard, so she went to see ......."

Hearing this, Li Pojun touched his forehead with his hand, and he also understood, so he had to smile bitterly, it seemed that the two daughters had met.

When he walked to the gate of the small courtyard, he saw Xichun running out in a hurry, seeing Li Pojun and Nian Xia, and hurriedly saluting.

"What's wrong? Did something happen to Yan'er? Seeing that Xichun was quite anxious, Li Pojun felt a sigh in his heart, and he was afraid that Xiao Yan would be jealous and do something extreme.

Unexpectedly, Xichun shook his head when he heard this, looked at Nian Xia and said, "The crown princess said that let the slave and maid chase Nian Xia back, don't alarm His Royal Highness......."

As he was talking, Xiao Yan also ran out, seeing that Li Pojun was also a meal, and then hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and glared at Nian Xia quite complainingly.

Li Pojun saw that Xiao Yan's eyes were red, and he also knew that he had just cried, so he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Yan'er, let's go in and talk."

Xiao Yan hummed in a low voice and followed behind.

Entering the house, before Li Pojun could explain, Xiao Yan was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Husband, I, I'm not such a jealous woman, you, don't get me wrong, if you really fall in love with Mrs. Zheng, you will settle down and approach the East Palace another day."

Li Pojun was surprised, staring at his eyes in disbelief, seeing this, Xiao Yan hurriedly explained: "I just didn't think about it for a while, just now, I thought that my husband already had a heart, and I cried when I was sad for a while." Xiao Yan's face was also slightly red as she spoke, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

Hearing Xiao Yan say this, Li Pojun was also relieved, hugged her, and felt infinite emotion in his heart, the poison of feudal thought, he ran over in a hurry and thought that Xiao Yan was jealous of breaking his JQ, but as a result, people's ideological consciousness was so high, and they offered to let Li Pojun include Zheng Liwan in the East Palace, this mind ...... There's really nothing to say.

The excited Li Pojun hurriedly rewarded her with a few kisses.

"Yan'er, I've wronged you, don't worry, I won't let you down, you are always the concubine that Ming Media is marrying."

Putting his arms around Xiao Yan, Li Pojun closed his eyes and said.

He is not hypocritical, he does have some thoughts about Zheng Liwan, and he will not give it to others, but the thoughts of later generations make him feel a little sorry for Xiao Yan, but fortunately, he is not strange in this era.

Even if an ordinary person wants a wife and a concubine, it is said that Li Pojun is a dignified prince, according to the etiquette system, the standard configuration of the East Palace for the prince is to have fifty-nine wives and concubines.

Xiao Yan hurriedly asked Xichun to chase back Nian Xia, and explained in front of Li Pojun, naturally it was for this, as an eldest woman, if she was a little dissatisfied with the prince's concubine or something, she would inevitably have a reputation for jealousy, Xiao Yan was soft-natured, and she didn't care about these, let alone be angry with Li Pojun because of this.

But hearing Li Pojun say this with her own ears, Xiao Yan was secretly relieved in her heart, and the moistness in the corners of her eyes was also temporarily retreating, with Li Pojun's words, she didn't have to worry about anything anymore, as long as she was an eldest woman, even if the prince had more women, it would be fine, but she was inevitably a little disappointed in her heart, after all, someone came to share her love with her just a few days after the wedding.

It was Wen Cun when he heard an unkind voice coming from the door.

"Stop, what are you doing here?"

This is Nian Xia's voice, and he seems to be quite angry when he listens to the voice.

It's no wonder that she is Xiao Yan's maid, so naturally she thinks about Xiao Yan in everything, and when she sees the fox spirit in the outer room raised by His Royal Highness the Prince, she will inevitably be emotional.

"There is a report from Lao, and the people's daughter Zheng Liwan asks to see His Royal Highness and the crown princess."

A clear and beautiful voice sounded, Li Pojun's brows moved, and Zheng Liwan came.

"No, the crown princess is so noble, how can you, a sinner girl, see it."

Nian Xia stood at the door with his waist in his hand, and scolded angrily.

Li Pojun frowned when he heard this, and Xiao Yan also felt that it was inappropriate, and shouted: "Nian Xia, Hugh is rude." looked at Li Pojun again, saw him nodding, and said, "Please come in."

"Come in", Li Pojun said with a calm face, Xiao Yan felt a sigh in her heart when she saw this.

Zheng Liwan and Nian Xia at the door all came in, and even the guard Chen Kang Shijin and the two came in.

"Chen Kang, you go out."

Li Pojun said and looked at Na Nian Xia, he found that this maid had a pair of willow eyebrows, slender eyes, thin lips, but a bit of posture, just combined with her words and deeds, and then look at this appearance, Li Pojun always felt that this Nian Xia was a little bitter and mean, as his name suggests, just like the popularity of summer, that Xichun is low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes, as warm and soft as spring.

"Mrs. Zheng is my guest, and I will tell you clearly that I will be your master in the future, without the consent of me and the crown princess, who asked you to turn her away?"

Li Pojun didn't look at Zheng Liwan, whose eyes were also red, but looked at Nian Xia in a deep voice and said.

Hearing Li Pojun's words, several people changed their faces.

Zheng Liwan's eyes showed joy, and she opened her mouth slightly in shock. Xiao Yan's face changed in fright, and she was about to speak, when Li Pojun smiled and waved at her.

Nian Xia turned pale and hurriedly knelt down, "The slave and maid should die, the slave and maid are out of shape for a while, and I ask His Royal Highness to forgive ......."

Looking at Xiao Yan, who was worried, Li Pojun also relaxed his face and smiled kindly, "For the sake of you who have first come here and served the crown princess for many years, I won't bother with you this time, remember, I won't take the next example." Serve the princess well is to put away your little temperament."

Such a self-asserted and domineering subordinate, according to Li Pojun's idea, although he will not be killed, but he will also have to be expelled.

But looking at Xiao Yan's cautious appearance, Li Pojun also didn't want to go, Xiao Yan has always been soft, if Li Pojun is punished, it may hurt her, making her more cautious, and as soon as she comes, she will punish the personal maid, which also makes her new princess have a dull face, and Li Pojun is too lazy to worry about a little maid.

The psychology of this maid Li Pojun can also guess a rough idea, she is the personal maid of the five ladies of the Xiao Mansion, and she is also a character in the jewelry shop on the street, and she is also a person in the jewelry shop on the street, and she is also the one who is rushed by those merchants, Xiao Yan is weak and weak, she never says anything serious and does not punish them, and now she has entered the palace and become a person next to His Royal Highness the Prince, and she is not lucky to be favored by the prince and has a reputation, it is strange that she is a shallow little maid who is not floating.

waved his hand to let the two of them serve aside, served tea separately, and invited Zheng Liwan to sit down.

Li Pojun did not shy away from comforting Xiao Yan in public, "Yan'er, don't be sad in your heart, I know that you have a deep relationship with Nian Xia, and this doesn't punish her, but you have to teach her a lesson, otherwise it's ......", Li Pojun glanced at Nian Xia, "It's easy to be a slave and bully the master."

Jia Da in "Dream of Red Mansions" and Mama Rong in "Huanzhu Gege" are all considered slaves and bullies, but as a slave, they dare to be disrespectful to their masters, to put it mildly, Qin Zhi Zhao Gao, Han Zhi Zhang Rang, are all like this, even more so in the late Tang Dynasty in history, the dignified Tang emperors were all set up by the group of eunuchs, and even the emperor was killed when they were ruthless, such as Tang Jingzong, the government was controlled by eunuchs, but in the end he was killed by eunuchs.

The slave bullied the master, this sentence frightened Nian Xia again's face changed greatly, and he was busy kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and Li Pojun waved his hand to let her get up.

Xiao Yan is not a fool, she understands Li Pojun's good intentions, and she also responds with a smile.

Seeing Li Pojun comforting Xiao Yan so gently, Zheng Liwan's eyes were full of envy, in order not to make her feel guilty, the prince comforted her so in a low voice, Zheng Liwan, who was deeply immersed in Li Pojun's appearance and talent, was full of envy and jealousy.

After appeasing Xiao Yan, seeing that she was indeed relieved, she was no longer trembling, Li Pojun breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Zheng Liwan.

"Mrs. Zheng is looking for me, but is there something wrong?"

Zheng Liwan glanced at Li Pojun with resentment when she heard this, and Li Pojun's scalp was numb.

"Does Your Highness plan to let the concubine live here all the time?"

Zheng Liwan is not shy about it, she is now a guilty body, it is all because of Li Pojun's protection that there is no law, her father and brother and others are also exiled to Lingnan because of Li Pojun's extrajudicial kindness, and she stays for a life, she doesn't need to be reserved now, the Zheng Mingzhu who once stepped through the Zheng Mansion to ask for marriage is gone, what else can she not let go of now?

Seeing that Zheng Liwan was so direct, Li Pojun was a little cramped, and secretly looked at Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan also covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw Li Pojun being so cramped for the first time.

said directly: "Since the husband likes the sister of the Zheng family, then take it into the palace."

In fact, Zheng Liwan is one or two years older than Xiao Yan, but Xiao Yan opened her mouth to say that she was a sister, which is obvious.

She can enter the East Palace, but I am the boss!

Seeing that Li Pojun was silent, Xiao Yan took the initiative to say: "Now that the concubine of the East Palace is vacant, I believe that in the near future, the saint will also order the draft to fill it, wouldn't it be better for His Highness to invite him to be included in the draft?" ”

At this time, Zheng Liwan's eyes were red, and she gritted her teeth and said directly: "The concubine has lived here for more than two months, I believe there have been rumors in the outside world, the concubine does not ask for anything else, just wants to be included in the East Palace and have a name, even if it is Fengyi (Zheng Jiupin, the lowest level of concubine), the concubine is also grateful to His Royal Highness for his great kindness."

Zheng Liwan lives in the villa, there are rumors in the outside world, and Li Pojun intentionally or unintentionally defiled himself, so Feng Xin spread the news, and now there is a saying in the outside world: The Zheng family should have exterminated the clan if they rebelled, but the prince fell in love with the Zheng family's daughter, so the Zheng family had to avoid death and exile to Lingnan.

When the Zheng family felt lucky, there were also people who spit on Li Pojun's greed, and ignored the national law for the sake of beauty, but Li Pojun acted as if he didn't know.

Now that he heard Zheng Liwan say this, Li Pojun still hesitated, and immediately nodded and said: "Then it's decided, tomorrow I will ask Aya to include Zheng Niangzi in the East Palace."

"Well, Yan'er, look, what kind of title should I give?" Li Pojun almost blurted out to Zheng Liwan to ask for a good Di (Zheng Sanpin, a total of two, equal wives, and the concubine with the highest status), but he hurriedly stopped his mouth, this should be for the concubine of the East Palace.

Seeing Li Pojun's appearance, Xiao Yan was also secretly happy when she valued her opinions so much, looked at Zheng Liwan, sighed in her heart, and said bluntly: "Zheng Niangzi is a famous daughter, talented and beautiful, if the reputation is low, it is inappropriate, I think it is better to let Zheng Niangzi be a good woman."

Xiao Yan knew that Li Pojun valued Zheng Liwan more, and if he changed to someone else, maybe he would be suppressed, at most he would give a Chenghui (positive five products, a total of ten). But how could Xiao Yan, who has a supple temperament, deliberately do this.

Hearing Xiao Yan say this, Li Pojun breathed a sigh of relief, but Zheng Liwan was greatly moved, her eyes were slightly red, but she hurriedly excused herself: "The crown princess can't, the people's daughter was originally guilty of sin, and His Royal Highness Xin Meng looked at her differently, so she was exempted from sin, how can she be in a high position in Liangdi now."

Li Pojun frowned when he heard this, "Don't shirk, just follow Yan'er", and thought that Zheng Liwan was refusing and hypocritical.

But Zheng Liwan was quite anxious when she heard this, her eyes were red, "Your Highness Mingjian, the concubine is now down, if she is in such a high position, it will inevitably cause gossip, if she is in a high position, I am afraid that she will be a nobleman."

Li Pojun was stunned when he saw this, so serious? At this time, I heard Zheng Liwan say in a low voice: "Liangdi and other high positions will be among the four concubines (second only to the queen's concubines, concubines, concubines, and virtuous concubines), and the four concubines are all daughters of Gaomen, and the concubines have no family support, and they are alone, even if there is the Zheng family's scripture hall, the concubine body has severed ......relations with it."

Hearing Zheng Liwan say this, Li Pojun understood.

Now the crown princess of the East Palace will be the queen in the future, and the Liangdi under her will also be among the four concubines in the future if there is no accident, but the four concubines sometimes do not need the emperor's favor to be sealed, they all have political factors.

For example, his father's fourth concubine, Wei Guifei is the daughter of Jingzhao Wei, although she is a second marriage and a sinner girl, but it is also to appease Wei's and even the four surnames of Guanzhong; Concubine Yang Shu was the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, in order to appease the remnants of the previous dynasty; Concubine Yin De is the daughter of the minister of the former dynasty, Yin Shishi, and the indigenous wang clan of Chang'an; Concubine Yan Xian, her grandfather was Yan Rong, a famous cool official in the previous dynasty......

Now that Zheng Liwan's father and brother are exiled, they are also sinners, although the Zheng family still has a lineage of Jingtang, but they are as smart as Zheng Liwan, how can they not know that the fall of her Zheng family was deliberately done by the imperial court, so they also drew a clear line with Jingtang, which can be regarded as unaccompanied.

"Then tentatively set Liangyuan (Liangdi, Zheng Sipin), tomorrow morning I want to play Aye."

Finally got this headache done, appeased the two, and that night, after having dinner in the villa, Li Pojun called the city gate back to the palace.

instructed Zhang Wenqian to write a petition, and prepare to bring it early tomorrow morning, but he was busy making people.

Li Pojun didn't know that on the second day, he didn't need to take the initiative to mention this stubble in the court, and someone took the initiative to scold him.
