Women will never sympathize with weak men.
Especially beauties.
The concubine didn't pay attention to Shang Rui, but just stared at Xiao Yao's retreating figure with her eyes.
Many ministers of the court began to wipe the sweat from their foreheads with their official sleeves.
After the dynasty was dismissed, some people gathered in front of Prime Minister Dong Hua, but before he could speak, Dong Hua winked and whispered: "This is not a place for talking. There are villains here, who are the eyes and ears of the King of Qin."
"Ah?" Several people were startled, and then they couldn't help but look towards Ding Rong.
The latter happened to be not far away. When he saw them gathered together, he came over with a shy face and said with a smile: "It seems that Prime Minister Dong and several adults also want to discuss something?"
He looks like a villain.
When everyone saw this, they snorted coldly and turned sideways, unwilling to pay attention to him.
Dong Hua stared at Ding Rong with a gloomy face and said, "Master Ding, what he did is worthy of this official uniform, and worthy of the emperor's favor in his previous life!"
"What a mess! Don't you, Prime Minister, understand that those who understand current affairs are heroes!" Ding Rong said, glanced at everyone, and said with a cold smile: "Besides, don't blame me for not reminding you to be careful in your words and deeds... "
After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.
"This, this, this, this is totally a villain's success!"
"Despicable and shameless person!"
Several people began to gnash their teeth again.
On the other side, after Xiao Yuan returned to the palace, he also discussed the affairs with the officials of the Qin State. This is where the state affairs are.
After all the ministers had retreated and saw Shangguan Wenruo still standing there, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and glanced at him: "Is there anything else, Sir Shangguan?"
The latter moved the corner of his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
"you say."
Shangguan Wenruo said: "I believe that as one of our kings in the Central Plains, your Majesty should abide by the etiquette and treat the emperor with the etiquette that should not be abolished."
Xiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Didn't Lord Shangguan agree very much when we accepted the emperor?"
"I am advising the king to respect the king and fight against the barbarians, so as to make the ministers disobedient." Shangguan Wenruo said seriously.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Shangguan Wenruo faintly.
He fell silent.
Shangguan Wenruo was a talented and knowledgeable person. To put it bluntly, he was a great scholar at that time. His attitude towards etiquette can be imagined.
After silence, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly, then reached out and patted Shangguan Wenruo on the shoulder, shouting: "Wen Ruo."
He rarely called Wen Ruo.
Hearing this, the latter quickly lowered his body and said, "I'm here."
"Don't worry, I know your advice."
"I am Wang Yingming." Shangguan Wenruo said quickly.
"Okay, okay, don't go back home at noon. Come and have a drink with me here." Xiao Yuan smiled gently again.
"This makes me panic."
"What are you afraid of? Let's go."
At noon that day, Xiao Yuan ordered the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes and started drinking with Shangguan Wenruo.
Xiao Yuan valued this scholar very highly, and the latter's loyalty was beyond doubt. Xiao Yuan would seriously consider his opinions, but in the end whether he would listen or not would have to be decided elsewhere.
After handling some government affairs in the study in the afternoon, Xiao Yuan was about to go out, but suddenly received an invitation from the palace.
In the name of the emperor, he called the concubine's birthday and wanted to invite her to the palace for a banquet.
Xiao Yuan's original intention was to be too lazy to pay attention to it, but after thinking about it, he decided to betray the emperor to save face. He couldn't go too far, and the soldiers inside and outside the Qin palace were all Qin soldiers, so they couldn't do anything wrong.
At dinner time, Qin Palace, Chengde Hall.
Outside the hall, Xu Hu was dressed in armor and had a sword hanging on his waist, waiting like a door god.
In the hall, Xiao Yuan first glanced at the table full of delicacies, then raised his head slightly, looked at the concubine opposite and said, "Isn't it your birthday? Why are there only you and me?"
"The King of Qin alone is the happiest thing for me."
As the concubine spoke, she also picked up the white wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Yuan.
There was still incense lingering in the room.
Today, she was obviously dressed up carefully, with delicate makeup, picturesque eyebrows, gauze shawl, and half-revealed snow.
This is a woman who wants to be enchanting and can be extremely enchanting.
What does it mean to be a beautiful woman, but to meet your beloved concubine?
To describe it in one word, it is overwhelming.
Looking at her actions, Xiao Yuan frowned secretly.
After pouring the wine, the concubine smiled softly and said seductively with her red lips: "His Royal Highness, King Qin, is sitting like this. Could it be that he is afraid that I will eat you?"
"Gu, why be afraid of a woman." Xiao Yuan sneered.
"In that case, why is His Highness so serious that he doesn't even look away from his eyes even during a banquet." The concubine covered her mouth gently.
"Is there any?" Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
The concubine glanced at him charmingly, then picked up the wine glass and said, "Then, can I offer a toast to His Highness?"
"This glass of wine is for you." Xiao Yuan picked up the glass, drank it down, and then said: "It is disrespectful to be a lonely widow in the same room, and you are the imperial concubine, and I am the King of Qin. , it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up to leave.
"Your Highness, please wait..." Seeing this, the concubine stood up in a hurry, walked around Xiao Yuan, and took his arm.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yuan lowered his head slightly and looked at the distance between the two.
"Your Highness, am I beautiful?" She hugged his arm and leaned close to him softly. She raised her head slightly and looked at Xiao Yuan with her autumn eyes.
Xiao Yuan is also a normal man. With such a beauty so close in front of his eyes, his breath is like orchid, and the fragrance lingers in his heart, it is definitely impossible to say that he has no impulse at all!
"It's beautiful." He chuckled softly and reached out to caress the concubine's cheek. It was so soft that it followed her cheek to her snow-white neck.
The concubine looked like she was enjoying herself, so she hooked her arms around Xiao Yuan's neck, her eyes were as charming as silk, her red lips were slightly pressed together, and she began to actively ask for a kiss.
"Get away!"
I thought that I would succeed in seducing her today, but unexpectedly, Xiao Yuan suddenly pushed her away.
"You!" The concubine stumbled and almost fell down. Immediately, her eyes filled with tears and her chest heaved up and down. She was obviously suffocated.
"You bitch! As a royal concubine, you should respect yourself! Don't force me to kill you!"
Xiao Yuan gave her a cold look and left directly.
Of course he had been impulsive, but he also understood that he could not touch this woman. She was the imperial concubine. If word got out that he was having an affair with her, King Qin would lose all his prestige and he would be denounced by the world's literati!
I'm sure they'll say that he slept on the emperor's bed and messed up the harem!
Looking at his back, the concubine's beautiful eyes seemed to be spitting out fire, but the heat remained unabated.
Experience has made this woman more and more complex.
