Pampered Into Being The Empress

Chapter 18: King

Views:

Yin Cheng was stationed in the territory of the state of Jin, which had been annexed by Daqi, and Emperor Zhuang had successively sent corresponding officials to take over important positions in the court of the state of Jin.

The original monarch of Jin Kingdom has become a subjugated slave, and was imprisoned by Yin Cheng in the Jindu Palace, where he was monitored while eating, sleeping, and living.

Some of the former important ministers of the state of Jin who were unwilling to surrender chose to hang themselves, but more of the ministers who immediately followed suit found ways to surrender to Qi after learning of the subjugation of the country.

at the banquet.

Emperor Zhuang's complexion was obviously turning blue, but his expression could not conceal his pride towards Mu Huai. He was obviously not in good spirits, but he still had to sit at the head of the banquet, ignoring the imperial physician's advice, and drank several glasses of wine.

Li Rui hasn't been sick since he returned to Qi.

Concubine Li Gui has been confined to the Jihua Palace all this time, and her two sons and daughters also did not come to the celebration banquet specially arranged by Emperor Zhuang for Mu Huai.

Concubine Li Gui was not around, it was rare for the empress to be the real master of the harem, and the smile on her face seemed to be much more than usual.

Taking advantage of the banquet, Emperor Zhuang promoted Yin Cheng as Hussar General and gave him ten thousand taels of gold.

As for Mu Huai's award, everyone at the banquet was dumbfounded.

Emperor Zhuang drafted an edict on the spot, conferring Mu Huai the title of King Jin.

You know, among the four sons of Emperor Zhuang, only his eldest son, the late son of Concubine Shu, Murun, was posthumously crowned the throne.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this title of "Jin" is for the purpose of appreciating his achievements in defeating Jin this time, and secondly, for the intention of granting the former land of Jin State to Mu Huai as a fiefdom.

After Mu Huai received the order calmly, the queen asked Emperor Zhuang in front of all the concubines and courtiers: "King Jin has been given the throne, do you want to move out of the palace, and then order the people from the Ministry of Rites to go to Bian immediately?" Choose a site in the capital to build a government?"

Emperor Zhuang was silent, took a chopstick of roasted meat and put it on the queen's plate, and said in a gentle tone: "The mansion should be built, but it will take a lot of manpower and time to dig the ground. Since you have just returned to Qi, there is no need to rush this matter."

The queen replied: "The concubine knows."

After speaking, his complexion changed slightly.

Do not let Kaifu leave the palace, but continue to live in the palace

The emperor's mind should not be too obvious.

Thinking about it, the queen shook her head helplessly.

Since Mu Huai almost had an accident at the last palace banquet, Emperor Zhuang directly placed several imperial physicians who were regarded as his confidantes in the Zirui Palace. Medical nose sniffing, silver needle and other methods should be tested again.

I'm afraid there will be another problem with Mu Huai's food and drink.

However, Mu Huai is still a dragon and phoenix among men, much better than the rest of Emperor Zhuang's sons.

Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty. Since Mu Huai has been crowned king and has reached his age, marrying a princess is really the best of both worlds.

The queen had a plan in mind about Mu Huai's marriage.

The singing and singing bursts, but Mu Huai's expression is a little pale.

He has always disliked attending banquets, even though this banquet is for him, he is the center of the banquet, and everyone flatters and flatters him.

He was wondering if the woman in Quyun Palace had used her dinner well.

This woman was very obedient today, Mu Huai thought about letting that woman lie on the bed for the first time after going back.

Thinking about it again, if she did this the first time, the woman would definitely cry.

Mu Huai couldn't help frowning.

That's all, let's do what she likes first.

When it was getting late, when Mu Huai felt that the banquet was finally over, he was about to get up and leave, but the queen said to Emperor Zhuang: "The concubine specially ordered someone to prepare an exquisite song and dance, why not use this song and dance as the finale, Let's all have a banquet."

Emperor Zhuang nodded in agreement.

Mu Huai had no choice but to sit back where he was.

His brows were sharp, and his deep black eyes were clearly restrained.

What a fucking annoyance, there is another song and dance, delaying my going back to feed the woman.

Mu Huai has been on this expedition for a long time, and when he lives with the soldiers, he will inevitably hear some vulgar language, and he also finds it indecent when he hears it.

But at this moment today, he actually cursed like this in his heart.

After the queen clapped her hands, dozens of actors beat drums and played music, and the melodious and elegant music suddenly sounded.

Suddenly, there is the sound of Lingling's pipa not far away, adding a little exotic feeling to this dance music.

When everyone turned their attention to the reputation of the music, they saw two young women wearing elegant dresses with Chu sleeves, like a fairy girl from Dunhuang, dancing gracefully and gracefully with their sleeves up.

The queen's smile deepened, these two daughters were the jewels in the palm of the Minister of Rites, the eldest daughter was named Zhai Shiyin, and the second daughter was named Zhai Shihua.

The eldest female poet's eyebrows are picturesque, gentle and pleasant.

The second daughter, Shihua, was delicate and lovely, bright and charming, both of whom were beauties from aristocratic families with outstanding looks.

And this Zhai family is the Queen's mother's family, and the Queen doesn't have a son and a half daughter. Among the two sisters, she prefers the dignified eldest daughter, Zhai Shiyin, and often invites Zhai Shiyin to live with her in the palace.

After the pas de deux was over, the empress lightly ordered Zhai Shiyin to pour wine for Mu Huai, and everyone at the banquet knew it well when they saw this.

The empress intended to give her beloved niece to His Royal Highness King Jin, and the Zhai family's lintel is not low. If the emperor agrees, then Zhai Shiyin is likely to be the future Princess Jin.

Zhai Shiyin took the white jade jug from the hand of the maid in a stately manner, and walked towards Mu Huai's seat a little nervously.

Previously, Zhai Shiyin had placed all his bets on the second prince, Mu Ji.

But since the fourth prince Mu Huai's leg disease recovered, she gradually turned her attention to this handsome and dazzling fourth prince.

Looking at it now, apart from his bad temper, Mu Huai is excellent in other aspects.

The closer Zhai Shiyin gets to Mu Huai, the more he feels that he has a flawless appearance and a rebellious temperament.

She had heard before that Mu Huai was extremely brave and good at fighting, so she thought it would be a somewhat rough image of a general.

But today, seeing him in a moon-white banquet attire with his own eyes, he felt that although his brows and eyes were a little sharp and cold, he had a handsome appearance as bright as a jade tree.

Mu Huaifeng frowned slightly, lowering his eyes and thinking about when he should leave. Zhai Shiyin had already walked beside him, and she said softly, "I have seen His Highness King Jin, Your Highness Wan An."

After finishing speaking, Mu Huai raised his eyes and gave her a cold glance, without saying a word.

Zhai Shiyin felt that his demeanor was compelling, and felt a little awe-inspiring.

Seeing Mu Huai bowing his head and playing with the jade chopsticks pillow that supported the chopsticks in his palm, but seeing her as nothing, he felt even more flustered.

Zhai Shiyin's appearance is excellent, and she is also top-notch among the daughters of Bianjing's aristocratic family. In the past, the noble sons who saw her would look at her more often, with admiration in their eyes.

Unexpectedly, Mu Huai didn't take her seriously at all.

— "The courtier pours wine for His Highness."

Zhai Shiyin's complexion didn't change, but a plan appeared in his heart.

When she poured wine into Mu Huai's cup with her slender hands, she deliberately changed her strength, and the mellow wine was sprinkled on Mu Huai's luxurious banquet clothes.

Under Mu Huai's cold stare, Zhai Shiyin's almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, pretending to be shocked.

She pulled out a handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe it off for him, and said: "Your Majesty has made a mistake... Your Highness has been offended."

Mu Huai's expression didn't change, he avoided Zhai Shiyin's touch with a little disgust, then got up and respectfully said to Emperor Zhuang: "Your minister's banquet clothes were sprinkled with wine by this woman, it's not appropriate to stay at the banquet for a long time, so I left first .”

Emperor Zhuang saw everything in his eyes, he glanced sideways at the queen, and then agreed to Mu Huai's request.

Zhai Shiyin froze on the spot, at a loss.

However, when Mu Huai turned to leave, he didn't see the corner of Mu Huai's lips tugging slightly.

This idiot just did what he wanted, if she hadn't spilled wine on his clothes, he wouldn't be able to get away so quickly.

*****

The winter moon melts, and the fine snow falls slightly.

After Mu Huai returned to Quyun Palace on snow, the bedroom was already brightly lit.

The snow-skinned beauty stood quietly in the hall, her black hair was as thick as a cloud hanging down her waist, but her face was like a flower without makeup, and her face was as beautiful as a peach or plum.

She was wearing a taupe-colored obscene dress, and when she looked at him with watery eyes, she was soft but still pure.

The news of Mu Huai's conferment as King Jin has already spread to Quyun Palace, Rong Xi thought of congratulating him first.

Before he could speak, the man had already carried her by the waist and carried her on his shoulders, striding towards the inner hall, and patted her thigh with his big palm.

Really anxious.

Rong Xi couldn't help but let out a low cry.

But he felt that his body suddenly lost weight and flew into the air, his head was facing down, and the blood seemed to be flowing backwards.

Rong Xi suddenly felt that there was some acid in his heart, which turned into nausea in an instant, and he wanted to vomit.

She was afraid that if she vomited on Mu Huai, he would break her neck, so she repeatedly begged for forgiveness: "Your Highness...Your Highness, this servant is not feeling well, please let this servant down first..."

Mu Huai pursed his lips, and put her on the ground as he said.

After standing still, Rong Xi felt a little dizzy, and the feeling of vomiting was even worse. She couldn't suppress it no matter what, so under Mu Huai's searching gaze, she clutched her heart and retched a few times.

Seeing this, Mu Huai frowned, patted her slender back, and asked puzzledly, "What did you eat?"

Rong Xi vomited continuously and was speechless.

It took about a month for Mu Huai to go to Jin Country, and her menstruation...has been delayed.

Once, she didn't drink the decoction of that avoid child...

The panic in Rong Xi's heart suddenly intensified, could it be...

pregnant.
