Chapter 548: On a whim
It is said that in his life, Chengzu Zhu Di loved two women deeply, one was the eldest daughter of the virtuous Xu Da, and the other was a North Korean woman with the surname Quan.
When Empress Xu died of illness, North Korea presented several beauties, and Kwon listened to Zhu Di with a beautiful and vulgar appearance, and the jade flute he carried with him was fascinated, and the concubine was named above the concubines.
The intelligent and beautiful Concubine Quan arrived, and since then the three thousand fandels have no color, and once took over the entire harem, replacing Zhu Di's beloved Empress Xu. Concubine Kwon was known for her suppleness and gentleness, grace and charm, and her father, Kwon Yongjun, was a scholar of the Joseon Dynasty.
In that year, the great-minded king of Joseon decreed a ban on domestic marriages in order to select beauties to please the suzerain.
It is said that in the past, the Korean people did not want their daughters to go to foreign countries to be palace maids, and they sent ordinary women, but this time no matter who has to send their daughters to be elected, Concubine Quan is the first place in the selection of ten thousand.
Unfortunately, Concubine Quan died two years later on the way back from Zhu Di's Northern Expedition to Mongolia and was buried in Shandong, Fang Ling was only twenty-two years old, which was a very big blow to Zhu Di, and it is recorded in the history books that when he received Concubine Quan's family, he burst into tears because of his grief.
A few years later, the palace maid next to Concubine Quan quarreled with Concubine Lu, who was also of North Korean origin, and inadvertently revealed that Concubine Quan died of poisoning, whether it was true or not, Zhu Di did slaughter hundreds of palace eunuchs such as the Lu family.
In the courtyard of the Jin family, Xu Hao was very surprised by Sister Fan's outstanding appearance and demeanor in front of her, and with curiosity, she did not refuse the old bustard's kindness, and let her sit beside her shyly.
Tang Fugui's saliva was about to flow down, his whole body was crispy, and he shouted with a horizontal heart: "How much money does she need, I bought it." ”
Yang Ji squirted out a mouthful of wine, glared at him fiercely, and said, "What are you in a hurry, even if you can't supervise this, then I will pay for it first as a big brother." ”
Yu Peng and Lu Qi were also amazed by the beauty's appearance. It's not unseen that a stunning beauty has been seen, but the natural and elegant temperament and demeanor in front of her are very rare, and it is rare to see it on the body of a woman in a green building, but a similar temperament is very common in the ladies and ladies of the official eunuchs.
The reason is very simple, it's just a cultivation that comes from playing a little pet.
Xu Hao didn't bother to pay attention to them, and said to the woman, "What is your surname?" ”
The beauty lowered her head and shook her head gently, Xu Hao said directly to the bustard: "She, I want it." ”
"This." The old bustard pretended to be very embarrassed and said, "As the governor." The price of this redemption is not good if it is more, but it is not good if it is less. ”
Without waiting for her to finish, Xu Hao said unceremoniously: "Get out!" ”
Immediately, Mu Yun strode forward, pulled out the sword with a bang, and put it on the old bustard's neck, with the meaning that if you are verbose, you will die, and everyone who bluffed was stunned, looking at this scene at a loss.
Xu Hao ignored anyone. Then he asked, "Your surname?" ”
"Slave family, slave family surname right." The beauty replied with some horror.
Xu Hao continued to ask thoughtfully: "Family background? ”
Seeing this, the beauty looked up in surprise at the handsome Han man who was close at hand, and quickly lowered her head again, and was obedient to the superior under the etiquette education. She knew that she couldn't hide it, and with pride in her family, she said calmly: "My father is the book of the Ministry of Industry. ”
Suddenly, Xu Hao stretched out his hand, and Tang Fugui immediately swallowed his saliva with envy. The beauty was a little uneasy, but she didn't dare to refuse.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Hao just casually pulled out the white jade Xiao on the waist of the beauty. I played with it a few times in my hand, and my expression looked very strange and intriguing.
His treatment of the famous concubines around Emperor Yongle in history is limited to online things like "counting the foreign lovers of ancient Chinese emperors", "how much Zhu Di loves Korean concubines who are good at blowing the flute", etc.
Well, the great beauty from North Korea, surnamed Quan, was born in a noble family and has a jade flute on her body.
Zhu Di is already dead, and it doesn't matter if the person in front of her is the concubine, but Xu Hao is very interested in knowing, if it is really her, how did she fall into the dust?
After half an hour like this, the banquet dispersed, and Tang Fugui watched the beauty leave with Xu Dudu, only to realize that the original rich world was nothing in front of the powerful.
"Rich, rich, only rich can only give you the life of your son." Tang Fugui sighed deeply, turned his head and was about to vent his anger on other beauties, when the servant reminded: "Master, the time for grandma to limit your return home will come soon." ”
At night in the Qinhuai River, Lu Qi personally led a team of brocade guards to guard the surroundings, and Xu Hao and Quan Meiren, whose name is Quan Zhizhen, walked side by side on the shore.
said that they were side by side, but in fact, Kwon Ji-jung had been cautiously half a step behind. If in North Korea, it is necessary to walk behind the man.
Xu Hao stopped, admired the colorful lanterns on both sides of the strait, and asked, "Say, you should have entered the palace." How did it get to the people. ”
Quan Zhizhen glanced at the splendid night scene that was many times more prosperous and beautiful than his hometown, slightly intoxicated, and said softly: "The slave family didn't know why, and it was sent outside less than two days after entering the palace. ”
Xu Hao frowned, and asked again: "It seems that Huang Gonggong went to North Korea on his orders, and he didn't say anything?" ”
"No, I haven't seen Gonggong Huang since I entered the palace." Kwon Ji-jeong remembered that annoying face, if it wasn't for him threatening the lord of the country, she wouldn't have been forced to choose, so she parted with her parents and hometown, but there was no sad expression on her face.
Xu Hao didn't know what she was thinking now, but he knew that with the family background and appearance of the Quan family's group of tribute girls, even Zhu Gaochi had to be named a concubine.
And with the Celestial Empire's preference for the urine of the beneficial, his father will definitely be rewarded with official positions, but fortunately, the officials of the Ming Dynasty are not stupid in this regard, and the Ministry of Rites stipulates that Yulu is allocated by North Korea.
Looking at the later generations of South Korea's puppet United Nations Secretary-General, the virtue of the whole country at that time, how to imagine that the emergence of a great concubine, her family will immediately become the pride of the people of the whole country, and will become an unspeakably noble and prestigious family.
As for the homesickness, tragedy, and evidence of the crimes of the great powers that plagued Korean women in later generations, they are all nonsense, and there is a kind of don't kneel and lick Westerners.
And with the strong national strength of the Ming Dynasty at that time, cry! It's just a cry of parting with a loved one, and ninety of a hundred women will be happy to die, and now you can eat meat to your heart's content, and enjoy it. Smecta!
In fact, the Ming Dynasty was very benevolent to its subjects, and most of the Korean court maids would be released back to China when they reached a certain age.
In any case, the difference in living standards between the two countries at that time was too great, just like the United States and China in the sixties. Looking at the general worship of Asian women in the Western world, Xiaochai has nothing to say, as women, we have a little dignity, okay?
Xu Hao thought about it for a while and understood that Huang's father-in-law's name was Huang Yan, Zhu Gaosui's sworn friend, and Zhu Yunwen's discordant plan back then, promising Zhu Gaochi to be the king of Yan with a letter. At that time, it was Huang Yan who told Zhu Di the secret.
In history, Huang Yan climbed to the high position of celebrant eunuch, but in the Hong Xi Dynasty, he was only an insignificant procurement eunuch.
Xu Hao didn't move him, because the enemy in the light was undoubtedly easier to deal with than the enemy hidden in the shadows. Huang Yan tried his best to select the beauties of North Korea this time, whether it was to climb up or help Zhu Gaosui carry out his conspiracy, the big eunuchs in the palace would never let him succeed.
Probably who got the consent of Empress Zhang and sold the person to the Qinglou, and sure enough, the jealousy of the woman is really terrible. Just send it back to China.
Since he met by fate, Xu Hao naturally will not be stingy to help, no matter how annoying the Koreans are, they are fundamentally different from the Japanese people. Not to mention innocent women.
But well, you can't put a hat on Zhu Di, right? In case the Korean historian records that a certain concubine was offered in such and such a year, the concubine returned to China a year later and remarried such and such Yunyun.
and then make up a secret history. The concubine returned to China while pregnant, and it was just a matter of giving birth to a son, so what could it be like to give birth to a daughter?
Xu Hao, who was facing the Qinhuai River, sighed deeply. The heart said that my uncle was for you, and my nephew could only reluctantly replace you and take care of them. Well, the nephew swears that none of them will be less, uh, the exception of the broken.
Dedicated to winning glory for the country, he naturally won't let go of the exotic beauties at his fingertips, isn't it sick to let them go.
In this way, Xu Hao went straight to the Forbidden City and ordered the eunuch to find the other beauties.
In the Qianqing Palace, Xu Hao said to the stunned Zhu Gaochi: "These women must not give it to you, you have a dead heart, whoever makes no good body will not give any of them." ”
Zhu Gaochi said angrily: "Then it's all for you?" Shall I give it to my brothers and nephews of the royal family? ”
Xu Hao smiled and stretched out a palm, plus two fingers, "There are only seven in total, and you will not let North Korea send some more." Have I opened my mouth all these years? Seven people, you can't bear it? ”
"It's not impossible." Zhu Gaochi frowned and sat down, "But why do I feel so cowardly." ”
Xu Hao Zhengse said: "First, they are not sealed, they are just ordinary palace eligibility, not your little wife." The second emperor rewarded the palace maids to his courtiers, and there were ancient times, and I didn't transgress the etiquette and law, and I didn't forcibly occupy the concubines in private, right? Brother, I ask for it openly, and no one has any excuse to blame. ”
Zhu Gaochi suddenly asked with a smile: "It seems that it must be stunning, otherwise your kid wouldn't be so bothered and begging for a beauty for the first time." No, I'll have to keep at least a few. ”
Xu Hao frowned and said: "It's not that I don't pay attention to righteousness, my sister-in-law blamed me for not being able to afford to eat, and besides, there are not no Korean beauties in your palace." ”
Zhu Gao said with a smile: "I'm also thinking about you, you brought it all home, what will the younger brother and sister think?" ”
Xu Hao was silent, he wasn't worried that there would be an accident, this was not a court bloody drama, he could kill the king of a country with a woman casually, of course, it was not impossible, but out of precautions against the prince and others, the probability was almost equal to zero.
Relatively speaking, a woman who was born in a family of North Korean eunuchs has so many lives in her family.
It seems that there are not a few unpleasant words, and it is not good to spread the word, and finally Xu Hao reluctantly said: "I fell in love with one, you can pick the other yourself." ”
In this way, in addition to the two who received the guests, there were four people left, Ren's daughter, the daughter of Yin Ren Tiannian, the left division of Renyu Mansion, who was seventeen years old; Li, the daughter of Li Wenming, a judge of Gong'an Prefecture, is seventeen years old; Lu Shi, daughter of the protector Lu Guizhen, sixteen years old; Cui Shi, the daughter of Cui Defei, deputy director of the Chinese army, is 14 years old.
Together with the ten maids and twelve cooks who served them, they all stood outside the Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Gao looked at it for a long time, and shamelessly asked for Ren's, Li's, and Lu's, leaving only the youngest Cui for Xu Hao.
Huang Yanqi's eyes were green when he got the news, and the beauties he brought back with all his hard work turned out to be given favors by Xu Dudu.
On a whim, it is difficult for a man to refuse this temptation if he wants a legendary-level beauty in the Ming Dynasty, or a concubine who can never be obtained.
But after getting it, Xu Hao felt tasteless, it was nothing more than a beautiful collection, and he didn't plan to talk about feelings.
Anyway, it's a foregone conclusion, let's put it at home first, if you don't bite if there are more lice, Ning Xue shouldn't say anything.
Suddenly, Xu Hao smiled, fortunately he was robbed of three by Boss Zhu, otherwise he would go home with five young ladies and twelve girls vigorously, and a major earthquake would be detonated immediately. (To be continued......)
