Chapter 440 Concubine Wei
The twilight is getting thicker, and the cold snow is shining.
Orange-red lanterns were lit by the maids, carried by poles, and hung in front of the doors of various palaces and palaces. The entire Taiji Palace was bathed in bright candlelight.The high walls and eaves cast shadows, like giant beasts standing and birds dancing.
In the Lizheng Hall, His Majesty Li Er was sitting on the brocade couch, with Fang Jun's last memorial on his knees. Sometimes his eyebrows were tangled, sometimes he was contemplating, not knowing the passage of time...
The servants serving outside the hall had already warmed up the dinner many times, but now it was cold again.
Wang De leaned on the crack of the door and glanced into the hall, feeling a little suspicious. Since his accession to the throne, His Majesty has become more and more adept at handling the affairs of the state, and he has not encountered such a difficult thing for many years.
Could it be that the second roommate did something so outrageous that made His Majesty embarrassed?At first, when His Majesty wanted to slaughter Fang Jun to feed the dogs, he was not in the Lizheng Hall, and others did not dare to talk much, so he did not know why His Majesty was angry.
It's just strange, why has His Majesty been doing this since he pushed that Fang Er into the Heavenly Prison?
Could it be that he really wanted to behead Fang Jun, so His Majesty thought again about how to explain it to Fang Xiang?
Well, probably so!
Thinking that the Prime Minister and His Majesty's monarchs and ministers will have each other, and His Majesty wants to kill the son of the Prime Minister, it is indeed a little difficult to explain...
The loyal Wang De scolded Fang Jun secretly in his heart. He is just a eunuch and doesn't take care of any major national affairs. Although he has always had a good impression of Fang Jun, how is that?In his eyes, His Majesty is the sky, the earth, and everything to him. How can he not eat dinner on time?
Fang Jun should be killed!
Although he knew that His Majesty was most tired of being disturbed when he was thinking, Wang De couldn't take care of it anymore, so he had to push the door and enter. .
Before he could open the door, he heard the ringing sound behind him, he turned his head in surprise, and saw Concubine Wei, who was in a gorgeous dress and full of pearls, surrounded by maids.
How did this guy get here?Don't you know that when Your Majesty handles government affairs, the harem enters the Lizheng Hall rigorously?
Wang De murmured in his heart, but he quickly greeted him at his feet: "This servant has seen the noble concubine..."
Although Wei Guifei, who is nearly forty years old, has long passed her sweet years, she is naturally charming, her face is pretty, her skin is as smooth as jade, and she is properly maintained, which does not reduce her aging state at all, but exudes a mature charm.
It's just that those pair of autumn eyes are a little red and swollen, and they look even more delicate, I still feel pity...
"No ceremony." Concubine Wei did not lift her hand, but said lightly, "Can Your Majesty be in the palace?"
How could Wang De, who is over half a hundred years old, care about Wei Guifei's contempt?He just replied softly: "Your Majesty is reading the official documents in the palace, and has not eaten dinner yet."
Your Majesty’s office is most suitable to avoid being disturbed by others. It is impossible for you to not know this. If you are really not afraid of His Majesty’s punishment and want to enter, then you can persuade His Majesty to enjoy dinner. After all, it is justified…
Concubine Wei glanced at Wang De with her beautiful eyes, and nodded slightly, as she had accepted Wang De's guidance.
"You stay here." Concubine Wei looked back and explained to the maids behind her. She lightly lifted her skirt and walked slowly into the Lizheng Hall.
His Majesty Li Er sat upright on the brocade couch, pondered and considered carefully, but did not find anyone coming in. He knew that he smelled a fragrant wind on his nose, and then he raised his head in surprise and saw Yingying praised Concubine Wei in front of him.
"His Majesty……"
As soon as Concubine Wei called out, she saw His Majesty Li Er's face sinking and said with a blank face, "This is the Hall of Lizheng, and you have not been summoned, how dare you enter it?"
Wei Guifei was so frightened that her delicate body trembled, she hurriedly knelt down on the ground and sobbed softly: "My concubine naturally knows His Majesty's rules, but His Majesty must also cherish the dragon's body. The official business will never be finished, how can it be delayed because of official business. What about the meal? Your Majesty is the god of the concubine body, and the concubine body loves her name more than her own name, so I dare to ask your majesty to eat..."
His Majesty Li Er's face was slightly down, and he closed the book on his knees and put it aside, hearing the words: "You stand up, it's not because I'm embarrassed for you, but this government hall is where I deal with the important affairs of the military aircraft, and there are a lot of secrets. Zuo Shu, if there is something wrong, wouldn’t it embarrass me?”
"My concubine knows I'm wrong..." Wei Guifei lowered her head, her voice soft and soft, but she was thinking: What is the most important thing in the military aircraft?It's not that this is Empress Changsun's bedroom, you still have Empress Changsun's love in your heart, and you can't allow other concubines to set foot here...
His Majesty Li Er stretched his waist, but did not pass the meal, but asked casually: "You have always followed the rules and will never easily go against my will. Tell me, what's the matter here?"
"This..." Concubine Wei hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously, "Let's pass the meal to Your Majesty, and wait until His Majesty has finished her dinner, and then it's not too late."
"That's fine." His Majesty Li Er stood up from the couch and moved his limbs, knowing that since Concubine Wei said so, it meant that there was no big deal.
Soon, the servants who were waiting outside the hall brought the dinners and placed them one by one on a lacquered and carved square table in the hall. Concubine Wei held chopsticks in her hands, and gently prepared dishes for His Majesty Li Er.
Dinner is very simple, four vegetarian dishes, a bowl of black chicken soup, and a large bowl of pearl white rice.
Although King's Landing is in charge of the world, His Majesty Li Er still maintains the dining habits of the military in the past. After finishing the meal soon, he waved his hand and ordered the servant to remove the leftovers, took a sip from the tea cup, and raised his eyes. Looking at Concubine Wei, she asked, "Tell me."
"promise!"
Concubine Wei responded, and before she could speak, her eyes turned red.
His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly and remained silent.
"Your Majesty, the concubine has served His Majesty for many years, and has never asked for any grace for her parents' family. Because the concubine knows that, as the Supreme Being of the Ninety-five Years, His Majesty must deal with things fairly to reassure people. But now, the concubine begs His Majesty to see After many years of love, I have given my younger brother an official and a half-job, just to keep him away from Guanzhong to prevent unexpected disasters..."
Saying that, the two lines of teardrops slanted down, like broken pearls, the petals of which were crystal clear, falling on the crimson-red palace clothes, like tears of blood...
His Majesty Li Er couldn't bear it anymore, he grabbed Concubine Wei's slender hand and comforted him: "What did Concubine Ai say? Why do you want to stay away from Guanzhong again? I didn’t want to say more, Wei Zhang was probably over-indulged by your father, and he didn’t make any progress. What happened to him was just used to intimidate you. He is your brother. , that is the royal family, who would dare to do anything to him?"
Concubine Wei clenched her Majesty Li Er's generous palm tightly with her backhand, crying so hard that she could not tell anything about her, my brother is unworthy, how could I not know? He is the only younger brother of the concubine, how can I watch him in fear? I just ask Your Majesty to transfer him to another place, so that he can save his life..."
His Majesty Li Er frowned.
This is getting more and more outrageous...
Looking at the Tang Dynasty, who would eat the guts of a leopard and take the name of the emperor's brother-in-law for no reason?
At the same time, Concubine Wei, who was hesitant to play with her scheming, gradually became impatient.
A complaint is a complaint, so why make a roundabout gesture?
What are you asking to be transferred out of Guanzhong, all the faults are your brother's, isn't it just beating around the bush and saying that your brother has offended someone who can't be offended, and you want me to stand out for you?
This woman is scheming and cunning, which is really unpleasant...
His Majesty Li Er's expression became indifferent.
Back then, he defeated Wang Shichong in Luoyang and brought Wang Shichong's daughter-in-law Weinizi into the mansion. Later, he saw that Concubine Wei was as beautiful as a flower, and that Weinizi was beautiful and complemented each other. marry together...
However, such a thing as a woman must always have a talent and temperament that matches the beauty to be perfect. Although Wei Guifei is more charming than Huajiao, her temperament is mean, and gradually she is not liked by His Majesty Li Er, and she is left out in the cold.
Also, they are not close to their children.
The three sons and daughters of Concubine Wei, the eldest daughter, Li Shi, was the daughter of Concubine Wei and her ex-husband. She did not enter the palace with her mother. It was not until the fourth year of Zhenguan that the Turks came to surrender. In order to appease the many Turkic nobles who came to surrender, His Majesty Li [-] Li, who was still a palace maid, was named the head of Dingxiang County, and instead of Li Tang's clan daughter, she married the Turkic nobleman Ashina Zhong.You must know that in the eyes of the Tang aristocracy, the Turks can be regarded as the last Hu people to marry...
From this, it can be seen that His Majesty Li Er is distant from Dingxiang, otherwise Dingxiang should be the same as Princess Wencheng, and the title is the princess instead of the county head.Although because of Fang Jun's troubles, Princess Wencheng has disappeared without a trace, and there is probably no such title in the world...
Even Princess Linchuan, the daughter of His Majesty Li Er and Concubine Wei, didn't like to see her very much. At least the honor Linchuan deserved was always slower than other princesses.For example, the princess who was the same age as Linchuan had been canonized early, but she was not canonized as a princess until she was married, which was more than ten years late.
As for King Ji Li Shen, he was not close either.
"Tell me, who did your brother offend?" His Majesty Li Er was a little impatient, but he still asked patiently.
Concubine Wei hesitated for a moment and said softly, "It's Xinxiang Hou Fangjun..."
