Perhaps because he was really embarrassed, Xiao Letian didn't have breakfast in the inner house the next day. After getting up from Rouji's bed, he fled out of the inner house and went to work.
After the turmoil of this night, under the bright sun the next day, Rouji shyly greeted the two ladies, and Qingwen also held hands and spoke softly.
Huniu even suggested that the twenty-six beauties should be given another apartment, and that they should all be moved into Shuiyunjian if they were to upgrade their homes to a higher level!
Shuiyunjian is not a house, but a very beautiful building complex, surrounded by streams and waterfalls. The mountains are high and the forests are dense with clouds and mist. It is a place where everyone often goes to enjoy the scenery every day.
It was not someone's long-term place, but today it has become the home of these beautiful girls!
Rouji was frightened when she heard this. How could they dare to live in such a high-end house? It was almost the same size as the two ladies' houses, and they all turned pale with fear.
But today, Fuhui and Huniu seemed to have negotiated with them, forcing them to live in Shuiyunjian. Moreover, while these beautiful ladies were saying their greetings, there were already mothers-in-law and maids moving their luggage. .
When Xiao Letian came back that night, he was immediately relieved when he heard about this. As long as the two ladies didn't knock over the vinegar bottle, the day would be safe.
"Shui Yunjian gave it to Rou Ji and the others? Isn't this level too high? I think it would be good to give them the camphor wood house on the south side of the plank road..." Xiao Letian and Fu Hui said casually while having dinner.
Fuhui smiled and said, "This is what Huniu means. Anyway, you accomplished a good thing in Shuiyunjian last night. This place is Rouji's blessed place, so it doesn't matter where you live!"
"You still care about the quality? It's not like the capital has any overreaching rules here! You can live here if you like, it doesn't matter!"
Xiao Letian was very ashamed of his wife's virtuousness. In the following days, he severely treated Fuhui and Huniu and overpaid the public food several times!
The Spring Festival of 1873 passed just like that. As soon as the first month entered the first month, Xiao Letian became crazy busy. Not to mention anything else, he was extremely busy just receiving representatives from officers and soldiers stationed outside.
Representatives of the garrisons from the Annan Kingdom, Borneo, Luzon Island, and various industrial areas in the Qing Dynasty... and of course the warriors from the Far East Kingdom!
Xiao Letian is the supreme commander of the Chinese military force. He has direct command of the armies of all states within the Chinese nation, such as the army of the Far East Kingdom. Although Xiang Shaolong is the king, he still has the highest command authority over the army. the third!
According to the institutional provisions of the Chinese Code, the Grand Council has the first power. This Grand Council is a gathering of representatives of all people in the Chinese-controlled areas.
Both Annan and the Far East have seats for people's representatives, and they can also participate in politics!
The rights belong to the Great Council, and then the Great Council authorizes all rights to Xiao Letian with full responsibility, and then Xiao Letian grants the rights to the commanders of the following ministries!
Military and civil affairs are integrated into one, and although each department can share responsibilities, just this kind of official activity of motivation and commendation is also a very difficult task!
Xiao Letian has to get up at four o'clock every day, and then his schedule is full. He counts the time with a stopwatch and participates in various activities.
I couldn't fall asleep until about ten o'clock in the evening, and I had to revise my action plan for tomorrow before going to bed!
Such high-intensity work makes it impossible for him to spare time to go to the back house and be gentle with Rou Ji and other women!
Rou Ji and other women had never seen such a scene before. Zai Chun was considered one of the more diligent emperors of the Qing Dynasty, but compared with the head of state, this was simply heaven and earth.
One day, two days, ten days, half a month! Rou Ji was dumbfounded. Xiao Letian had not come to see them or sleep with her for more than 20 days in a row!
These girls who had never seen the world were suddenly panicked and thought they had fallen out of favor!
The two ladies in the back house don't dare to ask. If you ask, they will be thought that you want a man, and you are not virtuous! But they didn't even dare to break into the front court of the Head of State.
Although the door of the red wall was open and they were not prohibited from going out, girls who had been educated in the strict etiquette of the Forbidden City inherently believed that the wall was a restricted area.
There are men outside the wall. How scary this is!
They didn't dare to break out to see the master, and they didn't dare to ask the two ladies in the house. The twenty-six beautiful ladies suddenly had no backbone, and their hearts were uneasy!
Until one day, a guest came to Shuiyunjian and said, "Sisters! It's been almost two months since you came to Ryukyu. Why haven't I seen you go out?"
"Oh...why are you still crying? What happened, tell me..."
The visitor is Amber, a wealthy idler in the inner house. Rouji and the others know that Mrs. Ru never does any work, but she enjoys all kinds of things on the same level as Mrs. Ru!
Not daring to neglect, Amber was quickly welcomed in, and the show girls expressed their worries while coaxing.
"Hahaha... What did I think it was? You... I tell you, you have to adapt in the future!"
"The Chinese people are different from the capital. The head of state is usually busy and doesn't return to the back house for half a year! Aren't you still alive?"
"Look at the two ladies, the head of state has a meeting in the first month of the year, and the two ladies also have their own activity arrangements!"
"Today the eldest lady went to visit the children in the Invalids Orphanage! She brought gifts and then inspected the conditions of the orphanage..."
"Second Madam has a reception for the female relatives to attend today! The wife of a Fuso official is having a social reception... As the wife of the head of state, attending such a reception is also a good way to calm the hearts of Fuso officials!"
"Qingwen went to the zoo today, Ping'er and Xiren went to the Führer's museum... everyone has their own things to do!"
"You have to find something for yourselves to do! You can't always think about me alone..."
When they heard this, these beautiful women were shocked. They didn't expect that women's status in the Chinese family was so high? The women in the harem of the head of state can travel as they please!
"This...how can this be done? The women in the harem have contact with the outside world. If there is any scandal, wouldn't it insult the reputation of the head of state?"
Rouji asked in horror, but Amber shook her head, "Someone has told the master a long time ago!"
"The master said something back, which almost scared us to death. Guess what Mo said?"
"Master said... in the Chinese code, adultery is not illegal, but rape is! If you don't love me anymore, I can't do anything to you even if you cuckold me. It's just a divorce and a peaceful separation!"
"Is it possible to commit murder and arson because of this kind of thing? Then wouldn't I really become a foolish king?"
Amber looked at these dumbfounded show girls and shook her head helplessly, "I finally understand what the head of state said. He doesn't plan to use high walls to trap us!"
"This is not his weakness, this is just that he respects us! The attitude of the head of state is very clear. This kind of thing is not to punish but not to forgive!"
"If you do it, then you must leave everything right now! The head of state will not trouble you... But if you do something wrong and you still expect the head of state to forgive you, then it is wishful thinking!"
Amber pointed at the beautiful scenery of clouds and mist outside Shuiyunjian's window, "Look carefully...are you willing to throw away everything here?"
"Haha... Okay, I won't say any more, you guys must be suffocating too! I just want to go out today and take you shopping with me!"
