Adore Trick of Beauty

Gao Yuji looked at Queen Mother Gao's wrinkled face, and a sense of hope arose in her heart. She believed that the Queen Mother's aunt, who had dominated the harem and controlled the government for many years, would definitely think of an excellent solution for her. Thinking about her made my heart feel a little lighter. Especially when she thought of that day in the pavilion of Shanglin Garden, when she was kneeling on the ground, the emperor in front of her took off his jade crown to reveal his true face. He was so handsome as a god...

…to the end…

"Tell me, you are willing to commit the crime of treason and follow me. What do you want to say to me?" Xiao Fengming asked.

Gao Yuji raised her head with tears streaming down her face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I am a concubine... I am not willing to give in."

"Not willing?! What are you not willing to accept? Is it status?" Xiao Fengming was so angry that he laughed: "Do you know what you are talking about? This is deceiving the emperor and despising the emperor!"

Gao Yuji took a few steps on her knees, stepped forward and grabbed the hem of his dragon robe, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, are you going to grant this concubine a noble title just because my surname is Gao? This is unfair!"

Her delicate white hands tightly grasped the dragon robe. Xiao Fengming lowered his head and glanced down. He suddenly remembered that night, when the alluring white woman came to him with a desperate move, a similar scene, but his heart was like a mirror. , knowing that she is really desperate, and now the woman in front of her has a face that is more beautiful than a spring flower, as fresh as a dewdrop, but her heart is so greedy...

"Do you think the position I gave you is unfair?" Xiao Fengming put away the cold expression on his face and asked calmly.

"I...I came today with the determination to die. Your Majesty...I entered the palace because I admire the emperor. Couldn't the emperor give me a chance and just ignore me like this? The emperor is my husband. , I have grievances in my heart, can't I tell the emperor?" Gao Yuji burst into tears.

Xiao Fengming looked at her pleading face, and a feeling of disgust and coldness that he couldn't explain passed through his heart. However, as he thought so in his heart, his face became more gentle and plump.

Gao Yuji only felt something brushing against her face, but it was Xiao Fengming who handed it to her with a plain white silk handkerchief, with a hint of pity in his smile: "Wipe it. I remember the Gao family's Children have always been proud and self-reliant, so if the Queen Mother sees you like this, you will not be scolded."

Gao Yuji was surprised and happy. She took the silk handkerchief and said excitedly: "Your Majesty... I am not afraid, I am really loyal to the Emperor..."

"Really?" Xiao Fengming smiled and stretched out his hand to help her: "But you have to understand all my hard work. You are the niece of the Queen Mother. If I grant you a too high status, I'm afraid the other ladies will not accept it. ."

"I don't actually care about status. As long as I can stay with the emperor forever, I don't want anything..." Gao Yuji said softly.

"Really?" Xiao Fengming smiled slightly: "Okay, I believe you for now. But everything you do in the future must be worthy of my trust."

"Stay back. I won't punish you today. You won't do it again in the future." He waved his hand lightly, signaling her to stand down.

Gao Yuji felt disappointed and wanted to say more, but Xiao Fengming had already stood up and turned away, looking at the scenery outside the window. His tall and straight back is like a fine meticulous painting, carrying the majesty of a king over the world.

Somehow, looking at his back, Gao Yuji felt a sense of shame in her heart. She lowered her head and quietly retreated...

…

In the summer of the first year of Wude, there was another piece of news that was more exciting than the draft that had just ended. In a few days, the Qin State’s peace negotiation delegation would enter Beijing. Rui Wang Xiao Fengqing and Qi State’s Prime Minister Gu Qinghong also came to Beijing to discuss the Qin Dynasty. The conditions for the country to cease war and withdraw its troops.

There is a voice quietly rising in the court of Ying State, that is, Qin State wants to cede the twelve states of Yunchuan to Ying State, and Qi State also wants to add Lingzhou area south of Congjiang River to Ying State to thank Ying State for saving Qi Yi. In water and fire. But Yunchuan has always been a fertile land for the Qin State. If the Ying State really occupied Yunchuan, the Qin State would be like a wolf with one of its claws chopped off. Its national power would be greatly weakened and it would no longer be able to invade the Ying State. And if Qi State really transfers the Lingzhou area south of Congjiang River to Ying State, it will break the evenly matched territory of Qi State and Ying State, and I am afraid Qi State will not agree.

Various suggestions were presented to Xiao Fengming one after another in the court, and arguments were endless. Xiao Fengming watched with cold eyes as the courtiers below were cowardly before the war started, and unrealistic and greedy when sharing the fruits of victory. Finally, he sneered and left the court, leaving only a group of courtiers gaping and looking at each other.

No matter how much arguments there are in the court, there is a lot of singing and dancing in the harem, which is peaceful and harmonious. Princess Yunle and the consort Xue Bi are getting married this month. The queen had just recovered from her illness and was not in a good position to work too hard. Since there was a precedent for concubines Jing and Concubine Shu to temporarily manage the harem, this time, the queen also handed over this errand and asked the second concubine to take care of it.

Empress Dowager Gao sent someone to talk to the empress about how to arrange the wedding. Finally, Eunuch Wu smiled and said, "This is what the empress dowager wants. The empress will have to work hard for everything."

The queen took the gift list presented by Eunuch Wu, handed it to the female official on the side, and said with a smile: "I would also like Eunuch Wu to inform the Queen Mother. I will do my best and will not let the Queen Mother down."

Eunuch Wu bowed and smiled and said: "That's very good, our family can go and recover. One more thing, the Queen Mother said that if the Queen Mother is free, she should also remind the Emperor that these beautiful girls have entered the palace. Should the Emperor..."

Halfway through his words, the queen sneered in her heart, but her face remained humble: "This is natural, but Eunuch Wu also knows that state affairs are busy recently, and the Qin State's envoy is about to enter the capital. The emperor has no intention of having a harem. This is also nature……"

Eunuch Wu wrinkled his sparse eyebrows and was about to say something when the Queen spoke in a nonchalant manner: "However, I will also go and give some advice to the Emperor.

Whatever the emperor likes is the one, and it’s not easy for me to interfere. "

Eunuch Wu raised his head and saw the carelessness in the queen's eyes. He couldn't say anything anymore and quickly stepped back.

The queen watched him leave, and then sneered: "You old immortal monster, who does the emperor want to favor, and you want her to intervene, when I don't know that she wants to help her niece?!"

Grandma Wang on the side reminded: "Queen, please don't take it lightly. Gao Yuji indeed has the capital to compete in the palace."

Disdain flashed in the Queen's eyes: "Then the Emperor must be willing. If the Emperor is not willing, I cannot force the cow to drink water. Doesn't the Queen Mother not understand this simple truth?"

"The Queen Mother is old, and she is no longer the one who rules the harem..." A cruel look flashed in the Queen's eyes: "I must let her understand this!"

…

Princess Yunle wants to get married, but Empress Dowager Gao is reluctant to part with her daughter. She vaguely wants Yunle to live with her husband in the palace after marriage, but there is no reason for a married daughter to live in her natal family. The queen mother also wants to be alone for Yunle and her husband. Build a palace next to the imperial city. This way she can see her daughter much closer.

As soon as this idea came out, everyone in the court objected. Prince Consort Xue Bi's father, King Pingnan, even broke out in court and almost disobeyed the holy will and refused to marry the Tian family. Xiao Fengming comforted him with kind words, and allocated a lot of money to let Xue Bi, the prince of Pingnan Prince, personally choose a site in the capital to build a mansion.

The queen took this opportunity to request the emperor to build a residence for General Nie Minghu in the capital. Xiao Fengming thought of Nie Minghu's bravery and numerous military exploits when he rushed to the aid of Qi, and happily agreed. Nie Wushuang also came up with this year's body, so in the same month of the same year, Xue Mansion and Nie Mansion broke ground at the same time. This move had a vague hint of anger. The whole capital was talking about it and talking about it. The family members were watching the excitement and the show, but Empress Dowager Gao was angry, but there was nothing they could do.

In mid-June of the first year of Wude, Princess Yunle married Xue Bi, the eldest son of Prince Pingnan. The wedding is grand and luxurious. Nie Wushuang stood behind the crowd and looked at Yun Le, who was dressed like a beautiful doll, with a vague feeling of pity in his heart.

The person holding the end of the red silk silk beside her was the handsome husband, but there was no more agility and expectation in her eyes, or even the longing of a girl. Nie Wushuang turned around sadly and left, with the sound of drums and music behind her. The proud daughter of heaven was marrying a prince with a different surname. It was a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven, and auspicious words were heard endlessly. But how could she feel that in this joyous scene, there was sadness that she couldn't bear to see...

…

June passed by quietly, and the fiery July came slowly. Prince Rui Xiao Fengqing finally passed through the dust and led the Qin envoys into the capital. Xiao Fengming personally went out of the city three miles to meet Prince Rui Xiao Fengqing. That day, the whole of Yingjing was in an uproar, and everyone rushed out of the city to see the victorious army.

Flags were fluttering along the way, and the royal driver left the city. The road was paved with yellow sand, and guards on both sides cleared the way. It was solemn and solemn. Wherever the bright yellow dragon passed by, everyone knelt down and worshiped, shouting three times: long live the dragon.
