- "The History of Yong: Biography of King Rui"〗

In the early summer afternoon, the sun was already very strong. There were two guards standing under the shade of the trees, looking at the surroundings with serious expressions, carrying out their responsibility to protect the royal family. Not far behind them, in a small elegant palace, the door was Several palace maids and eunuchs were chatting and laughing in low voices. This is the residence of Chun Concubine, the emperor's new favorite. She is only nineteen years old today. She is beautiful, with a charming body and a natural beauty. She is very favored by Emperor Yong. He indulged in sensuality, so Li Yuan didn't come here often. It's noon now, and they don't have much work, so they can be so leisurely, but if you look closely, these people have a touch of fear and anxiety in their eyes, and they look back at the palace from time to time.

In the depths of the palace, behind the heavy curtains, on top of a large soft mahogany couch, a man and a woman were lingering to their death, coquettish groans and heavy breathing echoed in the palace, and finally, after a burst of hysteria, the two The man stopped, the woman hugged the man's naked body tightly and refused to let go, the two embraced for a moment, the woman finally let go, and said lazily, "Your Highness, it's time for you to get up. ."

The man fondled the white and delicate skin of the woman for a moment, and finally stood up reluctantly and walked to the side hall, where the bath soup had been prepared. After bathing and changing clothes, the man walked back to the bedroom and saw him. He was wearing a prince's costume with apricot-yellow dragon pattern, which was a color that only princes could wear. This spring-filled bedroom was actually a place of incest.

Li An looked at this woman fascinatedly. In fact, when it comes to beauty, although this woman is beautiful, she is not necessarily better than his side concubine Xiao Lan and other women he has been fortunate to. I think back when he married Xiao Lan. He used to be so crazy. As a man, he was able to make a woman who was noble and beautiful like a fairy softly sneer under him and wanted to die. What kind of high-spiritedness was that, but later, he gradually became a little tired of Xiao Lan. Always a face of earnest teaching, he began to secretly hunt for beauties. Unfortunately, the pressure of King Yong, whom he was most afraid of at that time, overwhelmed him. Dare to be arrogant, even at home banquets, do not dare to act arrogantly.

It wasn't until he told the emperor to offer sacrifices to the Taimiao that his storage position was stable, and he could not help but relax a lot. He began to support dancers and singers. It happened that he got a caring bodyguard, Xia Jinyi. Although this person is mediocre in martial arts, he is good at all kinds of romantic activities. The dance girl and singer in the mansion will be intoxicated in the gentle village. Especially since the household incident last year, although he has not been punished by his father, he can also feel that his father is a little cold to him, and it is really infuriating when he thinks about it. , diverted others' ideas, and he couldn't even care about the victims of Fengyi's disciples, but within a few days, that Liang Jinqian was killed by the poison, this Liang Jinqian should be damned, he will not let him go sooner or later, but absolutely It shouldn't be this time, not only was the emperor angry, he called him to reprimand him, and he couldn't help but blame him for murder and silence. Even Lu Jingzhong and Xiao Lan complained about him, and he was depressed for a while. In the end, Xia Jinyi had a way to convene the dance girls and maids, and held an unshaded meeting in the secret room. Even King Zhou's wine pond and meat forest were nothing more than this. He should have been cautious in his words and deeds, but such nonsense made him feel depressed. He calmed down from the rage, and gradually, he realized that it was the only way to calm down his mood. Anyway, he thought he was doing it without knowing it. Besides, even if the father knew about it, he wouldn't bother about this kind of thing. When he is angry, he is not happy and carefree in the Three Palaces and Sixth Court.

In the beginning, he was just having fun in the mansion, but later he found it uninteresting. These women were either flattering or forced to laugh, which made him boring, and he couldn't help but think of a past indulgence, that southern Chu famous prostitute was radiant and danced fiercely. , but he refused to spend the spring night with himself, and he used force in his anger. He still remembers the experience of that time, and the famous prostitutes who came to Dayong may not be inferior, but as the prince, how can he go to the stage, think of it. Here, I couldn't help but envy King Qi Li Xian, and later he told Xia Jinyi his thoughts. Xia Jinyi is smart. He may send someone to disguise himself and take the famous prostitutes from Dayong to a manor to raise them, and then Li An pretends to be an ordinary person to tease them. Sometimes it is easy to get started, and sometimes it is difficult. Pursuit, but always let Li An enjoy a different style. Later, Li An got tired of this usual trick and began to play with all kinds of women. The fragrant souls of many young girls are buried under the loess. Xia Jinyi even provided him with a top-quality aphrodisiac. After taking it, he could not only control the number of daughters, but also feel a hundred times more energetic after getting up, so Li An was even more arrogant.

It's a pity that he was stopped by Xiao Lan before he got tired of playing. Xiao Lan looked gloomy and said to him coldly: "If Your Highness wants to be enthroned as emperor, how can you do such a tricky thing, without saying that others know, Even if my master knew, he would definitely be furious. If master no longer supports His Highness, I am afraid that it will be too late for His Highness to regret it. This time, the concubine will take care of the aftermath for you. "

Although Li An was a little annoyed, he still knew that he was going too far this time, and he had to be bored in the house for the rest of the day, but he was always restless, and only felt that the concubines and palace maids in the house were boring, until one time Emperor Yong At the family banquet, he saw a gorgeous and unparalleled woman standing at the end of the concubines. At that moment, he only felt that the blood all over his body was hot. It was a bright girl, her smile was like a spring flower blooming, and when she When the graceful dance came forward, Li An finally couldn't hold back her cravings. This woman was from the North and was good at Hu Xuan dance. On, when spinning rapidly, the varied dance dynamics and the difficult skills of stepping, jumping and spinning made Li Anxin even more itchy. The youthful Chun Concubine and the already aged father, Li An couldn't help sighing regretfully.

Although he loves it, Li An still doesn't lose his head. Although this woman is only a low-class concubine, she is still her own concubine. Although this incest incident is not uncommon in the palaces of the past dynasties, it is not an upright thing after all. It's just the prince, but he doesn't have the guts. But the more forbearance something is, the stronger the temptation. Ang Li tossed and turned for many days, and his mind was full of that charming dance.

His personal bodyguard, the deputy commander of the mansion, Xia Jinyi, saw that he was not thinking about tea and rice, and all his persuasion was ineffective, so he asked him why he was so worried. Li An already trusted this personal bodyguard and deputy general manager. He was not only smart and capable, but also tight-lipped. Xia Jinyi's credit for never leaking his private affairs. Li An finally said what was on his mind. Even if he trusted Lu Jingzhong on this kind of thing, he would not discuss it with him.

Xia Jinyi began to be embarrassed: "His Royal Highness, the life and glory and wealth of your subordinates are all bestowed by His Highness, and you should not be afraid of difficulties even for His Highness's broken body, but this kind of thing is different. Impossible."

Li An was also disheartened, depressed, and fell ill, which scared Xia Jinyi, and finally couldn't help saying: "Your Highness, you have a lot of influence in the palace, and the queen is your biological mother, Ji The noble concubine is even more supportive of you. Although Chun concubine is favored, she is only a low-class concubine. As long as you use power to coerce and lure you with power, this woman is not a character of three virtuous and nine fierce. Besides, you are the future emperor. After you ascend the throne, most of her life and death will be in your hands. If nothing else, if the emperor is long live, if the concubine has no heirs, she will go home and become a nun. At that time, the ancient Buddha will be green and lonely, and she will be young. Nianhua, how can I bear it? The emperor is already high in spring and autumn, and I am afraid there is no chance for Chun Concubine to get pregnant. If she follows you, maybe she will have a half-daughter, and then she will be able to rely on it, but there is no, in the future With His Highness taking care of you, you can live the rest of your life in peace."

Li An was so excited when he heard this, he just felt refreshed. He immediately made up his mind and discussed a plan with Xia Jinyi. First, he asked the emperor to assist the emperor in reading the book. It happened that Li Yuan had already calmed down, so he was allowed to stay in the East Palace. Handle government affairs, and Li Yuan was also a little tired of government affairs, so he sent ministers to assist Li An in handling government affairs, and Li An took the opportunity to visit his mother in the afternoon, and then took the opportunity to seduce Chun Concubine, who is the prince's honor and powerful in the harem Great, coupled with the gold and silver to open the way, they quickly approached Chun Concubine smoothly. At first, Chun Concubine politely refused, but later she could not hold back the eager pursuit of the prince. Coupled with Xia Jinyi's intentional or unintentional threats and inducements, Chun Concubine finally gave in. In the embrace of the prince, this taboo love effectively made the prince forget the idle flowers and weeds outside. He always handles government affairs in the East Palace every day, and only spends an hour in the afternoon at Chun Concubine. The emperor does not know, but feels that the prince is recently. Diligent in government affairs, so very happy, ignorant of the prince's scandalous affair.

When Li An reluctantly left Chun Concubine's palace, Xia Jinyi and a few guards had already greeted the wind outside, and surrounded the prince back to the East Palace, but Li An did not notice that Xia Jinyi's expression was a little uneasy.

Xia Jinyi felt a little uneasy. In the past year, he has tried his best to please the prince, and even did many things that he never dared to think about before. Most of the young girls were sent to the prince by him. He did it with his own hands. He didn't dare to tell anyone about these things, but he told himself that if he wanted to take revenge and let that gorgeous figure sink into hell, there was only one way for him, and that was to follow that person. Said, let the prince indulge and wreak havoc, he believes that he has done it, but his hands are bloody and sinful, I am afraid that Jiuquan will not have the honor to see his parents. What made him even more uneasy was that he never had the chance to meet that person once. He knew that that person lived in the palace and could not easily leave the cold garden for half a step. The guards around him were like wolves and tigers. He had the opportunity to pass the news to him, and he didn't dare. Having been by the prince's side for so long, he deeply knew how powerful the prince's young Fu Lu Jingzhong and the prince's side concubine Xiao Lan were. He didn't dare to contact that person rashly, and could only hope in his heart. What you do can help that person, so that one day he will be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish. But what about the current crisis? Yesterday, Xiuchun secretly came to tell him that he heard what the prince's side concubine Xiao Lan and the princess Cui Shi said. Although he didn't hear it clearly, Xiuchun heard Xia Jinyi's name. Xia Jinyi has a ghost in his heart. Last time, Xiao Lan ordered the guards of the villa and those women to be executed, and then all the corpses were destroyed. If he hadn’t been taken away by the prince, he would have had bad luck, but he would never forget Xiao Lan. Looking at his eyes, cold and ruthless, will he have such good luck this time

Back in the East Palace, Li An, who was a little tired, watched Zhezi doz off, and finally couldn't help taking a nap at the desk. Xia Jinyi covered the prince's cape and quietly retreated to the door, but he listened intently and waited for the prince's call. At this time, a guard came over tiptoe and said in a low voice, "Deputy Director, the princess sent someone to give an order, saying that there is something for you to do."

Xia Jinyi frowned and said, "I am serving His Highness, you know, His Highness will never leave me for a moment."

The guard smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Deputy Director, how dare I tell the princess this, you should go back."

Xia Jinyi thought for a while and asked, "But the princess personally summoned you to give orders."

The guard said: "Don't worry, my lord, I personally heard what the princess said, she has some things for you to do."

Xia Jinyi was a little relieved, and asked again, "My senior brother is not at the mansion, and there is something I can't let him do."

The guard said in a low voice, "You know, the Master Chief has a serious temperament, and some things must be unwilling to do. To be honest, I heard from the princess' maid that it seems that the princess' nephew has committed a crime outside and needs someone. Go and clear it up, you know, if you don't go, who can do it, and the princess doesn't want everyone to know about it."

Xia Jinyi was relieved at this moment, nodded and said, "Okay, you all take good care of Your Highness, I'll be back when I go."

On the way back to the mansion, Xia Jinyi always felt uneasy in his heart. Thinking of what Xiuchun told him yesterday, he always felt that there was something wrong with it. Wait for me outside, the princess ordered things, it won't take long, if I don't come out after half an hour, you will immediately go to the palace to see your highness, and say I beg your highness for help."

The subordinate nodded again and again: "This subordinate understands, the deputy general manager should be more careful."

Xia Jinyi smiled bitterly and said in his heart, "I am now full of sins, and anyone can kill anyone. If my wish is not fulfilled, or if I die, what does it matter? But now I can't die. If I don't see her sinking into a sea of misery, I will never give up. "Thinking of this, he walked into the Prince's Mansion with his head raised and his chest raised. No matter whether he stretched his head or retracted his head, it was a stab.

When he entered the mansion, he saw that there was a trace of sympathy and pity in the eyes of the guards and palace maids who came and went. Xia Jinyi knew that this time was not good. Although he was favored by the prince, he was a generous and generous person, never robbing others of credit, nor bullying the weak. , No matter it is the guard and the palace maid, as long as he can live with him in face, he will deal with it very well. This year, the prince has been moody. If there is no intercession with him, I am afraid that many people in the palace will be punished by the prince. is very good. Although he didn't dare to say it now, he secretly signaled that a few good guards also signaled him to leave quickly. However, Xia Jinyi knew that there was absolutely no way to escape, so he had to go to the flower hall at the back, where the princess met foreign ministers. As soon as Xia Jinyi walked into the flower hall, he saw Xiao Lan sitting on the top with a dignified expression, and sitting on the guest seat was a gorgeous woman, who was the Jingjiang Princess Li Hanyou. An imperceptible cold light flashed in Xia Jinyi's eyes, and he stepped forward and bowed down, "My subordinate Xia Jinyi kowtowed to see Concubine Lan and Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Li Hanyou smiled lightly, glanced at Xiao Lan, and said, "Senior sister, this person is the daring servant who instigated the prince to be unrighteous."

Xiao Lan said coldly: "It's this person, don't look at his handsome appearance, but he is a gold and jade, and he is a servant, flattering the Lord, and the crime is extremely sinful, Junior Sister, you rarely come to see me today, so let Junior Sister see me. The means. Xia Jinyi, are you convicted?"

Xia Jinyi raised his head, his expression was indifferent, but his heart was turbulent and uneasy. Xiao Lan's eyes were murderous, and it seemed that he decided to kill herself, but why is she there? Can she still recognize herself? It is described that she has not yet grown up, and now she is so noble, how can she remember the young man who was severely hurt by her that day. He raised his eyes to look at Li Hanyou, Li Hanyou seemed to be surprised by his quietness, and looked at him, his eyes met, there was no other meaning in Li Hanyou's eyes, Xia Jinyi put down his heart, thinking that her temperament has changed drastically now, she must not Thinking that he was an old acquaintance of hers.

Li Hanyou looked at this man, obviously with such a humble identity and low character, but his expression was indifferent. His calm demeanor and handsome appearance also made him quite arouse a woman's heart, but this person was a lowly charismatic jester. What a pity, she shook her head slightly and looked at Xiao Lan.

Seeing that Xia Jinyi didn't answer, Xiao Lan was even more annoyed, and asked again: "If you don't answer, are you despising me? Let me ask you, Xia Jinyi, are you guilty?" Her anger was so fierce that Xia Jinyi felt as if her chest was being pierced The murderous aura surging from her body hit her hard, and she involuntarily leaned over and said, "I don't know what crime the villain has committed.
