After leaving the sphere of influence of Prince Xiang's Mansion, Gu Xiao did not return directly to the East Palace, but ordered the guards to leave a special guard behind. From today onwards, he will have complete control over the whereabouts of Prince Xiang's Mansion, even if it is Xiaosi who goes out!
After arranging everything, Gu Xiao returned to the East Palace.
The Yanzheng Hall of the East Palace is the residence of the Crown Princess.
The satisfied Gu Xiao went straight into the Yanzheng Hall and happened to see the Crown Princess Su Yingxue ordering her maid to prepare gifts.
"What is the Crown Princess busy with?"
Su Yingxue looked back, smiled and said: "When you return to Your Highness, I am preparing a return gift."
Hearing this, Gu Xiao suddenly realized.
When a woman gets married, among the people, she has to return home.
However, the seven of them were married to the prince of the East Palace. Without Gu Xiao's permission, they could not leave the East Palace without Gu Xiao's permission, so they could only prepare gifts and order them to be sent home.
"No matter how many gifts you have, they can't compare to you going back and taking a look." Gu Xiao put it bluntly.
Su Yingxue understood in her heart and said: "The concubines all understand the truth, but the royal family has royal regulations. The concubines have married His Highness the Crown Prince and should follow the ancestral system."
"You can think so, I am very happy."
During the conversation, Gu Xiao had arrived next to Su Yingxue.
He lowered his head and looked down at the pretty woman in front of him.
When she got married, Su Yingxue was stunningly beautiful, but at that time, Su Yingxue gave people the impression of being young and ignorant.
But Su Yingxue, who had just experienced human affairs, had the feeling of a young woman all over her body, which made Gu Xiao reluctant to look elsewhere.
Gu Xiao's heart grew more and more angry as he watched, and he finally couldn't help but joke: "We haven't seen you all morning, why do I think the Crown Princess has become more beautiful?"
"Your Highness..." Su Yingxue was shy.
I saw Gu Xiao smiling evilly and hugging Su Yingxue into his arms, restlessly touching her buttocks with his right hand, breathing warmly and looking with deep aggression in his eyes.
The fiery eyes made Su Yingxue couldn't help but think of the "close combat" scenes that happened last night. Her cheeks turned red with embarrassment and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at Gu Xiao.
When the maids and palace maids saw this, they couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering. They pushed each other and retreated outside Yanzheng Hall.
"Yingxue, I really miss you."
Although Su Yingxue understood what Gu Xiao wanted to do, it was just that she had been tortured by Gu Xiao when she first started working. He only cared about her greedily and did not know how to show mercy to flowers and cherish jade at all. As a result, she still feels physically exhausted. That place The pain was even more unbearable.
"On our wedding night, I and Your Highness were in love. Your Highness loves me and it is my blessing. However, Your Highness should not ignore the other concubines and Liang Di. They are still waiting for Your Highness to come." Su Yingxue's face did not change, her heart did not skip a beat. Start a topic.
Not only did Gu Xiao not listen, but he hugged Su Yingxue tightly and said, "I understand the principle of rain and dew falling equally, but at this moment, I want to go to Wushan with the Crown Princess."
Su Yingxue was shocked and her red lips parted slightly.
"Your Highness... don't... I am really... wuwuwu..."
Without waiting for Su Yingxue to explain, Gu Xiao kissed Tao Yingxue's little mouth arrogantly, and his hands were restless, wandering around Su Yingxue's body.
Su Yingxue's cheeks were so red that she could bleed. She pushed Gu Xiao away with all her strength, and reminded with a breathy voice: "It's a clear day outside... Your Highness must not engage in prostitution in the daytime... wu wu wu..."
In the middle of her words, Gu Xiao sealed her little mouth again, but this time, Gu Xiao's attack was so fierce that Su Yingxue had no room to resist.
After a while, the two went to bed.
The personal maids and palace maids who were guarding outside the Yanzheng Hall all heard "strange" sounds coming from inside, and most of them were Su Yingxue's begging for mercy.
…
【Kunning Palace】
Emperor Mingde finished handling government affairs as usual and returned to Kunning Palace to accompany Queen Zhao Yuxi. The two discussed Gu Xiao's contribution to the vassal king at the dinner table.
The premise of the discussion was that all the maids and eunuchs should be sent out of Kunning Palace, so that Emperor Mingde could safely talk to Queen Zhao Yuxi about the matter.
After all, the matter of extending the grace order has not yet been announced to the public.
The fewer people who know, the better.
Emperor Mingde spoke solemnly and spoke eloquently.
Queen Zhao Yuxi was shocked when she heard this.
It is simply unbelievable that the prince would have come up with such an ingenious order to extend grace.
It's not that the queen looked down on the prince, but the prince's actions over the years were shocking. If Emperor Mingde hadn't heard what Gu Xiao said personally, he probably wouldn't have believed it.
Queen Zhao Yuxi recovered from her surprise and murmured excitedly: "With the blessing of our ancestors, our Xiao'er has finally enlightened."
Emperor Mingde did not hesitate to lower his status and personally served a bowl of soup for Queen Zhao Yuxi and said, "Xiao'er has woken up. If you don't eat anymore, you will be hungry tonight."
"Your Majesty, why are you making fun of me again?" Queen Zhao Yuxi said she was unforgiving, but in fact she was so sweet in her heart.
"Drink quickly." Emperor Mingde was used to it.
Queen Zhao Yuxi drank the health soup with relish.
Emperor Mingde looked on fondly.
The husband and wife have been loving and harmonious for nearly twenty years, and they have a clear understanding of what each other wants to do.
Queen Zhao Yuxi drank every drop of the health soup. Before he could do anything, Emperor Mingde took the silk handkerchief on the table and carefully wiped the corners of Queen Zhao Yuxi's mouth.
Looking at each other and smiling, harmonious and warm.
The meal is over.
Emperor Mingde summoned his father-in-law, who ordered his maids and eunuchs to return all the dishes and chopsticks to the imperial dining room.
The couple sat on the soft couch and rested for a while.
The royal father-in-law was as attentive as a hair, and guessed that the couple had something to say, so he immediately whispered and ordered the palace maid to bring freshly brewed hot tea. The palace maid gently placed the hot tea in front of the two of them, and then bowed out of sight.
Emperor Mingde sat upright and asked with a smile: "I deliberately called Xiao'er away to give the queen a chance to have a heart-to-heart talk with them. I wonder what we talked about this morning?"
"It's nothing more than telling them to take good care of Xiao'er. The second thing is to make their stomachs proud and give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson for the royal family as soon as possible. This will fulfill your and my wish to have a grandson."
"For the sake of the glory of their respective families, will these seven people..." Emperor Mingde hesitated and looked at Queen Zhao Yuxi silently.
The meaning behind the words is very clear.
Emperor Mingde was worried that these seven people would rebel for the sake of family glory.
Queen Zhao Yuxi's eyes flashed and she smiled.
If there are too many wives and concubines, they will naturally become jealous.
However, Queen Zhao Yuxi had something to say first. The seven sisters could compete for favor, but they could not escalate to the point of harming others. Once discovered, the Queen would not spare them lightly.
"Your Majesty has already put a lot of effort into managing the previous dynasty, so just leave the harem to your concubines." Queen Zhao Yuxi's words were equivalent to giving Emperor Mingde a dose of reassurance.
