Emperor Hongyuan was married for three years, and he only favored the Empress Lou, and never took in a concubine. All the officials were deeply worried.

"Your Majesty, the emperor's heirs are weak, and it's time to fill the harem." Left Minister Yang Youting said honestly and sincerely.

Xiao Chengjun glanced at Prime Minister Zuo with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Since the crown prince is established, the emperor's heir is not the top priority."

The left minister choked on one sentence and didn’t know how to say it. The fact is that the emperor’s heir is in the final analysis to select the prince. The first emperor appointed the emperor’s grandson. In order to make a gesture to the people of the world, to show that the emperor attaches great importance to the crown prince, he will never treat him harshly.

The Prime Minister on the right, Sun Liang, was still taciturn. He glanced at the Prime Minister on the left, but did not answer. Everyone knows how much the Emperor loves Empress Lou. I am afraid that the reason for not accepting a concubine is not because of the crown prince, but because of Fengyi. The one in the palace, he doesn't intend to answer such an unpleasant matter.

Zhao Xi, who has been promoted to Minister of Rites, rolled his eyes, came out and bowed: "The election of beautiful women is not for choosing concubines, but actually for selecting palace ladies. Many of the palace maids are old and waiting for the general election." In my opinion, the general election is still going to be held."

Left Prime Minister Yang Youting glanced at Zhao Xi appreciatively, very satisfied with such subordinates.

This Zhao Sanyuan is indeed an incomparable genius. He worked very well in the Ministry of Industry for three years, and completed two major projects, the Summer Palace and the Qingzhou River Channel, with very little cost. , was promoted to Minister of Rites.

You must know that it takes many years to become a minister. Many people's official careers stop at a certain minister. For example, Yao Zhu, the former Minister of Rites, worked in this position for nine years. Recently, he was in poor health and retired. Returning to his hometown, his official career will end here, and Zhao Xi has just reached the age of weak crown.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Emperor Hongyuan didn't object again, and asked the Ministry of Rites to draw up a regulation, so he stopped talking about it.

There was no objection, but there was some relaxation. The courtiers who had daughters of the right age at home became more active and began to ask for news.

The news of the start of drafting girls soon spread to Fengyi Palace. At this time, Lou Jing was talking to Yang Shi in the main hall.

"Grandpa Guo has recently become obsessed with playing Pai Gow. No amount of persuasion will help." Wearing Mrs. Yipin's gown, Yang sat at the bottom with a gentle smile, holding a one-year-old child in her arms, who looked like a pink sculpture. Yu Zhuo is very cute.

"Father is always looking for something to do, let him do it." Lou Jing was wearing a royal blue uniform and a gold crown inlaid with sapphires. With a smile, she quietly looked at the child in Yang's arms.

This child is Lou Jing's younger brother - Lou Jin, who just turned one year old last month.

Mrs. An Guogong's wife Wei was pregnant in the filial period before, and gave birth to a daughter. She was raised outside for more than a year before she was brought back and raised as a concubine. Wei Shi held his breath and insisted on having a son, but who would have thought that two more daughters would be born in three years. Seeing that Yu was nearly forty years old and had no son to inherit the family business, Lou was extremely anxious. At this time, the young Yang was also pregnant and successfully gave birth to a boy. Just before Wei gave birth to her third daughter, she was so angry that she had dystocia and collapsed, and she just died.

Lou Jianyu couldn't see how sad he was, he hastily dealt with the funeral, and made Yang his official wife. Having a son, An Guogong is very happy, this time he must raise it himself, and he can't raise a rebellious son like Lou Jing again.

"Jin'er, come and salute my brother." Yang carried her son to the main seat and put him down.

Lou Jin is still young, her eyebrows and eyes have inherited Yang's appearance, she looks very gentle, her temperament is very well-behaved, she doesn't cry when her mother puts her down, and looks up at Lou Jing in a daze.

Lou Jing raised her eyebrows, "Jin'er is so young, Madam is willing?"

Yang stroked her son's hairy little head, and said with a light smile: "The eldest brother is like a father, and it is for the good of this child to give it to the queen to raise."

The head of the Lou family has always been Lou Jing. If he wants to become the son of Duke An, he must be taught by Lou Jing. The Yang family is not the confused Wei family, she knows it very well. Because of Lou Jing's promotion, her father, Yang Xing, has already become the governor of Jiangzhou, and if her son wants to become the head of the Lou family, he must get close to Lou Jing.

Lou Jing glanced at Yang Shi with admiration, and stretched out her arms to hug her younger brother, "Jin'er, how about living in the palace with your elder brother from now on?"

Lou Jin blinked, looked at her mother tearfully, then turned to look at Lou Jing, and nodded obediently. Yang Shi breathed a sigh of relief, at this moment Le Xian hurried in and said a few words to Lou Jing in a low voice.

"It's getting late, so the concubine will leave first." Yang said goodbye and left with a wink.

Lou Jing narrowed her eyes slightly after hearing Le Xian's words.

"That's it?" Lou Jin tilted her head to look at him, calling her brother inarticulately.

"Hold Jin'er down." Lou Jing handed the younger brother in her arms to Le Xian and got up.

"Yes..." Lou Jin held onto the corner of the queen's clothes and did not let go. It was the first time he left home, only his elder brother was familiar with him, and he was not happy to let a stranger take him away.

"Father's Empress!" A crisp voice came from outside the door, and after a short while, a small apricot-yellow figure rushed over, it was the crown prince Xiao Qirui who had just graduated from school.

The prince is already five years old, Xiao Chengjun, as a strict father, wants him to be enlightened early, and he can't follow the queen every day without doing business, because just in the beginning of spring, he found the director of the Imperial Academy to teach the prince.

"How is the prince's studies today?" Lou Jing glanced at the guy who was holding onto his leg, and stretched out his hand to tug at his little ear.

"Father, that old man Lin is too ugly, I want the Minister of Rites to be my tutor." Xiao Qirui looked up at him.

Lou Jing hugged Lou Jin who was holding his corner, and stuffed it into the embrace of the crown prince.

Xiao Qirui was startled, and hugged the fat white baby in his arms with difficulty, not knowing why.

"This is your little uncle. If you can coax him not to cry today, the palace will go and talk to the emperor about the Tai Tuo." Lou Jing smiled and left the two children in the main hall, and went leisurely. Go to the Royal Study Room.

Xiao Chengjun was approving the memorial, and now the officials he promoted have been used, the left and right prime ministers work hard, and there are much fewer things that he needs to handle personally every day than before, and the review is very easy.

Zi Zhen came in with tea and put it where Xiao Chengjun was used to. Xiao Chengjun raised his hand to take it without looking at it, but touched Zizhen's finger, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and turned to look at her.

Zizhen and Zitao served Xiao Chengjun in the East Palace. When the young queen chose maids for the prince, all of them were ordinary-looking court ladies. Unexpectedly, Zi Zhen has become a bit more beautiful in these years.

"Your Majesty..." Zi Zhen showed a shy smile at the right time. This year there will be a draft girl, she has reached the age of repatriation, if she has not been favored by the emperor, she will go out of the palace. How glorious she has been as a palace lady these years, she doesn't want to marry an ordinary person and live a life of simple food and drink.

When Empress Lou came in, she happened to see this scene, and immediately turned cold, "What is this for?" Her tone was not necessarily harsh, and it sounded a bit teasing, but once the always smiling Empress turned cold, There must be blood.

Zi Zhen was so frightened that her legs went weak, she never expected that the queen would show up at this time, usually the emperor and queen had lunch together, when the queen was taking a nap, the queen got up first, went to the imperial study to approve the remaining papers, and then Go back and wake up the emperor, why did you come here before lunch

"See empress." Zi Zhen hurriedly came out from behind the table and knelt down to salute.

Lou Jing stared at her coldly, until she was drenched in cold sweat, then said quietly: "For the sake of serving the emperor since you were a child, go and get twenty court sticks."

"Thank you queen." Zi Zhen kowtowed to thank the emperor tremblingly. Last year, there was a court lady who seduced the emperor and was directly killed by the queen. She was only beaten with twenty court sticks. What a blessing, although twenty court sticks would also kill her half. , at least not dead.

"Zhuoyu..." Emperor Hongyuan waved his servants back, stood up and walked in front of the queen.

Empress Lou took out a bright yellow handkerchief from the emperor's sleeve, dipped in tea, wiped the emperor's fingers one by one, and finally took a bite on it.

"Hiss—" Xiao Chengjun was bitten in pain, he gasped, and was licked lightly by his soft tongue. He embraced him relentlessly, and blocked his lips.

It was originally to Xingshi to inquire about crimes, but what happened just now made Lou Jing realize that these older court ladies must be released from the palace immediately, but if they talk about the draft girls, there will definitely be high-ranking officials and honorable families who will come to the palace. Women, I'm afraid they will be even more distressed at that time.

Lou Jing pushed the memorial to the ground irritably, and pressed the emperor who hadn't returned yet on the desk.

"Well... no, it's daytime... ah..." Emperor Hongyuan struggled endlessly, prostitution in Qingbai day is something only a foolish king would do.

"The emperor flirts with women, so he should be punished." Lou Jing smiled with an inexplicable meaning, and slapped the two round pieces through the dragon robe.

Xiao Chengjun was stunned, he was actually spanked by the queen...

Seeing the face of Emperor Duansu turned red in an instant, Lou Jing felt dry mouth for a while. After three years of marriage, he was still in the state of being "seduced" by Xiao Chengjun anytime and anywhere. Bright yellow trousers.

"You..." Xiao Chengjun was so ashamed and annoyed that he got up and wanted to beat him up.

With a sound of "Slap!", the naked butt was slapped again, and at the same time, a greased finger got into the body.

"Hmm..." Emperor Hongyuan's eyes were red with anxiety, "Lou Jing, you are... ah..."

In the imperial study room, the room is full of spring scenery.

For three consecutive days, the emperor did not visit Fengyi Palace and slept alone in Panlong Palace.

Le Xian looked at the empress who was waiting under the lamp, feeling very sad in his heart, and comforted him in a low voice, "Maybe the emperor is tired, you might as well rest earlier."

The news that the emperor agreed to the draft had already spread. It was heard that the two had a dispute in the imperial study room. After that, the emperor, who visited almost every day, never came to Fengyi Palace again. There were rumors that the emperor had become indifferent to the empress and was planning to take in new concubines, but the emperor's refusal to go to Fengyi Palace undoubtedly confirmed such rumors.

"I heard that the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent more than twenty portraits today?" Lou Jing propped his head on one hand, the candlelight reflected his dark eyes, which were obscure.

Xiao Chengjun was annoyed in the imperial study that day, and refused to see him for three days. The Ministry of Internal Affairs took advantage of the Queen's absence and hurriedly sent the portrait prepared in advance to the Panlong Hall.

The honorable officials in Beijing, who have women of the right age at home, have prepared their portraits early on. These daughters do not need to enter the first round of elections. Showing the portraits to the emperor in advance is also a cover for the emperor's consideration. For example, If the emperor wants to win over that family, he will keep the portrait of the young lady, so as to ensure that this person will not lose the election.

"Yes..." Le Xian answered in embarrassment.

"Hmph!" Lou Jing snorted coldly, got up, and walked out of Fengyi Palace with her sleeves thrown.

Fengyi Palace is not far from Panlong Hall. Lou Jing walked into Panlong Hall with eyes full of hostility. No one dared to block the queen's way. In fact, the queen went to Panlong Hall in the middle of the night not once or twice. The guards had already Just get used to it, and post as usual after saluting.

Entering the palace without any hindrance, the candles in the inner room have been extinguished, presumably Xiao Chengjun has fallen asleep. Stopping Anshun who was going to open the inner room, Lou Jing asked him in a low voice, "Where did the portrait sent today go?"

Anshun didn't dare to lie, and led Lou Jing to the study, but he was very anxious. The portraits are all in the study room. The emperor was still looking at paintings in the study room just now, leaving only one on the table. Because he was too tired, he rolled it up and put it on the table before tidying it up in time. The palace people all knew what the painting was for and dared not move it.

Now if the queen saw it... Anshun couldn't help shaking, hoping to walk more slowly.

However, no matter how slow it is, there will be a time when the candle is lit, the study is very bright, and the half-opened and half-closed picture scroll is particularly dazzling.

Walking closer in two or three steps, Lou Jing grabbed the painting in his hand, and it took a lot of perseverance to not tear it apart, and slowly opened it, revealing the flowing hem of the clothes. Lou Jing only felt that his heart was tightly grasped, he was very familiar with this technique, it was drawn by Xiao Chengjun himself!

Unfolding the scroll bit by bit, Lou Jing couldn't help but widen her eyes.

On the paper was an unparalleled beauty, with thin lips pursed and eyes affectionate, leaning against a maple tree, looking over with a half-smile. Each stroke is extremely delicate, which shows that the painter cherishes the person in the painting. A line of handsome and extraordinary small characters is inscribed next to it, "Familiar with the fine brushwork of Xuan painting, the pen touches my heart, the force penetrates the paper and the meaning is hard to flatten, the painting is not Qing in the end. In November of the tenth year of Chunde, on a bright moon night." At the end, I built a Xiao Chengjun's private seal when he was still the prince.

Lou Jing held the painting, and took a long time to come back. She glanced at the stack of scrolls on the ground that had not been unwrapped by the red string, carefully rolled up the portrait in her hand, and put it into the painting vat. He often saw this painting in the vat, but Xiao Chengjun never let him see it. It turned out that it was Lou Jing who painted him.

Walking lightly into the inner room, Lou Jing took off his coat, climbed onto the dragon bed, and hugged the sleeping emperor into his arms, hugging him tightly. I haven't seen him for three days, his Yuan Lang must have missed him too, and he couldn't bear to look for him, so he could only sit in the study and look at the portrait by himself. Lou Jing buried her face in the soap-scented hair. After all these years, this person still has this kind of magical power, which makes him love him even more every time he discovers some little secrets, until his heart aches.

"Hmm..." Xiao Chengjun was tightened, and he frowned and pushed the person away, then he found a familiar comfortable position in the warm embrace, and rubbed lightly.

"Yuanlang, Yuanlang..." Lou Jing called him softly, stroking his back.

"I didn't order you to sleep with me." Xiao Chengjun said vaguely with his eyes closed.

"Yes, I'm here to serve the bed." Lou Jing smiled and pulled the quilt and covered the two of them, "The emperor doesn't accept concubines, so I have to take over the responsibility of serving the bed in the six palaces."

The sleepy emperor didn't bother to pay attention to him, and with the familiar body temperature, he hugged him contentedly, and fell into a deep sleep with peace of mind.

In the third year of Hongyuan, there was a big selection of female candidates in the imperial palace, and only the maids were retained, and the concubines were not selected. The courtiers were in an uproar, lamenting that the queen was jealous. However, everyone did not expect that this was just the beginning.

Emperor Hongyuan did not accept any concubines throughout his life, and the empress Lou Jing who helped Emperor Hongyuan conquer and guard the world became the most legendary virtuous and jealous empress in the world.

However, not accepting concubines, on the other hand, protects the crown prince. History books mention Queen Lou, more praise than derogation, and the name of jealous queen is mostly ridiculed. Xiao Chengjun finally used his wisdom to earn the praise he deserved in the history books for the person he loves the most.
