"How? My Royal Dragon Pond is not bad, right..."

Emperor Shunyao walked into the imperial bathhouse with his cloth robe open,

his long hair casually twirled on top of his head, and the Yulong Pond, which

was entirely made of precious stones, was steaming hot. The eight court ladies

outside only wore tube tops and knelt down on both sides, and the dressing

table was not only There are bright glass mirrors, as well as all kinds of

exquisite and expensive toiletries.

"It's definitely not bad. Who dares to catch prostitutes in this place to do

great health care..."

Zhao Guanren also wore a gauze and looked around. When the two palace ladies

knelt and pushed open the door of the bath, there were three big baths, one

cold pool, one soup pool, and one clear pool. There were eight palace ladies

kneeling in it. Welcome by the pool.

"Your thoughts are really bad, what kind of prostitute do I use in my

harem..."

Emperor Shunyao smiled and walked in, Zhao Guanren followed up and laughed:

"The difference between the two is that one is retail for individual

customers, the other is for exclusive use of annual subscriptions, and the

same is spent for fun. There is no difference in essence. , Can the emperor

not give them money?"

"You! Talking is always open, I have to take out the ** from my intestines

and say..."

Emperor Shunyao stretched out his arms dumbfounded, and the palace ladies

hurriedly came up to take off his robe, and handed him a soft towel to help

him step into the potion pool, but Zhao Guanren's face turned red and

embarrassed: "Take it off." There are too many people, right?"

"Haha~ When you are also harmful and embarrassed, please strip him naked for

me..."

The emperor Shunyao seemed to have caught his weakness, and his childlike

innocence suddenly rose. Zhao Guanren hurriedly clutched his bathrobe and

jumped into the pool. He shrank in the water before taking off his bathrobe.

Arrange tea and cakes by the pool.

"You go down first, tell you to come in again..."

Emperor Shunyao lightly waved his hand, Zhao Guanren took a cup of sour plum

soup, lit a cigarette and leaned against the pool comfortably, while Emperor

Shunyao also lit a cigar for Ghent, and asked: "Did the queen confess what?

Last words?"

"I don't want to be born in an emperor's house in my next life, I just want to

be an ordinary woman..."

Zhao Guanren spit out his cigarette and said, "No one will die! This is a very

frightening rule. Six years ago, you had an abdomen injury on the driver's

hand, and the maidens discovered that they could not regenerate, but most of

them were in their twenties and thirties, and their harems were also fiercely

competing for favor. , It’s not surprising to borrow seeds to have children!"

"I seem to have become a tyrant, the biggest joke in the world..."

Emperor Shunyao raised his head and gave a sorrowful laugh, and actually left

two lines of tears. It can be seen that he and the queen have some feelings,

but feelings can't beat the emperor's power.

"As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang is

a passerby from then on..."

Zhao Guanren lay on his back in the water and said, "The inside and outside of

the palace are two worlds. People outside want to come in and people inside

want to go out. To put it bluntly, the palace is a prison. Being an emperor is

not a favor. I think it is more like a kind of Punishment is just the

bitterness in it, no emperor dared to speak out!"

"Oh~"

Emperor Shunyao waved his hands and said, "I really don't like listening to

you. You always poke in people's hearts and say something happy. If you

continue to listen to you, I will get home!"

"Let's say one unhappy thing in the end..."

Zhao Guanren said: "The clues point to Prince Duan. If Heavenly Master

Xuanyang succeeds in calling his soul tonight, and confirms that the sorcery

was done by Prince Duan, then there is a black hand in the harem that none of

us expected, the prince, the sixth, and the old. Nine are all victims!"

Emperor Shunyao straightened up and asked, "Why can't it be the sixth man, so

you are so sure that he is fine?"

"The sixth one wants to toss, but it's a pity that he doesn't have this

ability..."

Zhao Guanren shook his head and said: "But I hope the guilt can be directed at

the sixth child. The most feared thing is to fall on the head of Prince Duan.

Then this person is too terrible. It is very likely that he personally

participated in the murder of the Emperor!"

"You made me confused, who else besides the three of them..."

Emperor Shunyao looked at him in confusion, Zhao Guanren handed him a glass of

iced rice wine, and smiled: "Everything is in the guessing stage. At night,

you call out all the princes and concubines and let them watch the heavenly

master Xuanyang call their souls. , Maybe you can see some clues!"

"Okay! I will wait patiently for a few more hours..."

Emperor Shunyao slapped his hands after drinking the rice wine, and the

bathrooms were immediately pushed away. There were more than a dozen

concubines wrapped in bath towels and lined up. Although they were all

downgraded, they were all serious harem women. Seeing Zhao Guanren all

blushed.

"Except for me, you are the second man to come in..."

Emperor Shunyao chuckled and beckoned. The maidens could only blush and step

into the pool, but they had obviously been ordered. Four of them swam to Zhao

Guanren's side, kneading his shoulders and feet with shame. Two knelt by the

pool and feed him drinks and fruit.

"emperor!"

Zhao Guanren leaned against the pool with his arms wide open, looking at the

beautiful court lady who had kneeled around the pool, and smiled: "I took back

the words I was young and ignorant before. In fact, it's still very good to be

an emperor most of the time. Give it to a ** at this moment. Don't change!"

"Haha~"

Emperor Shunyao raised his head and laughed: "Are you all fools that day? Who

is the emperor is unhappy, but you have to pay for the reward tonight, and

they will be exclusive to you in the future!"

...

"Mother! It's not let people sleep in the middle of the night, so it's scary

to watch some soul-seeking..."

The concubines and concubines gathered outside the Tianhe Hall full of

complaints. There were a lot of kerosene lamps hung on the square to

illuminate the square in black and white. All the imperial troops were

withdrawn to the far sides. Heavenly Master Xuanyang placed in the center of

the square. The altar was set up.

"Why call us all out..."

The little princess and Princess Demon Moon also came out, and the guards

stopped their slaves, but there were only a hundred concubines, plus a dozen

princes and princesses, not many people, all gathered on the stairs The small

leeward corner next to the pedestal.

"Prince and Prince Duan are here..."

The concubines spread their legs and bowed in salute, only to see the prince

come with his head up and chest up, while the prince Duan yawned as if not

awake, each leading his family.

"Yongning! What is this going to do, is it going to open the altar to catch

ghosts in the middle of the night..."

Prince Duan was imprisoned for a few days and didn’t know anything. The little

princess walked out of the crowd and said, “Call the soul! Someone has set up

a sorcerer in the harem. Someone will be out of luck tonight!"

"Humph~ Old Jiu! Don't be scared to pee in your pants later..."

The prince folded his sleeves and sneered. He stood upright on the steps of

the hall, while Prince Duan curled his lips and said: "Who does good deeds

knows well. You are the Prince of the East Palace. I have a scheming trick. Do

you treat me as two hundred and five?"

"Hey! Have you heard..."

A lady suddenly said: "I heard that the prince of the county went to Yulongchi

to take a bath. The emperor called more than a dozen noble men and ladies to

serve. Yes, I will go out of the palace to Prince Zhao's Mansion tomorrow

morning!"

"What? King Zhao went to Yulongchi, is the emperor also..."

Most people were stunned by the news, and the prince and Prince Duan also

pricked their ears, and pushed their wives and concubines over to eavesdrop.

"Nonsense! Who dares to attend the bath if the emperor is not..."

A well-informed lady said: "Have you not found out that none of them are here?

Qian Guibi is simply not beautiful. She took a box of gold melon seeds and

gave her a reward, saying that King Zhao rewarded her a bunch of treasures,

Wang The imperial concubine was also abolished and threw it to her as a slave

servant!"

"The royal concubine can't hang herself..."

A concubine said in horror: "Wang Gui concubine usually bullies her very

often. She slapped her ears in public. This time she will be a slave and

maidservant. It must be worse than death, maid! God bless me, I am not a

queen. The party, it has nothing to do with me!"

"What happened, why did Zhao Yunxuan go to the Imperial Dragon Pond..."

Prince Duan looked at the little princess in astonishment, and the little

princess pouted and said: "The emperor treats him as a toilet, and throws all

the unwanted goods into his house. Anyway, he has more lice and is not afraid

of biting. His reputation for rebelling and domineering is outside. Go to his

house and kowtow long ago!"

"Hey! The King Yongshi is here..."

The maidens all showed a smirk. They only saw Zhao Guanren in a red dragon

gown and walked over with two big sleeves, followed by Tan Qingning and Duan

Commander, but at this time, no one dared to go forward and get close. Nodding

your head even if you say hello.

"It's almost time! Let's get started..."

Emperor Shunyao walked out from behind the main hall with his hands on his

back. Jin Wuming and Grandpa Tian followed. The concubines and princes knelt

forward to welcome him, while Emperor Shunyao just slightly raised his hand

and walked straight to the altar on the square. .

"Everyone! Please enter the circle quickly..."

Heavenly Master Xuanyang replaced a serious seven-star bronze sword. Four men,

four women, and eight disciples were holding dustpans and drew a large circle

around the altar with lime powder, and finally sprinkled the remaining lime

powder on the steps of the hall. Before, even the steps of the main hall were

not let go.

"The emperor! Please sit here, don't get up..."

Xuan Yang invited Emperor Shunyao to sit on the armchair on the left and said

loudly, "Listen carefully, everyone. The unmanned virgin stands on the right

side of the emperor, the boy stands on the left side of the emperor, the man

stands on the left side of the altar, and the woman stands on the right side

of the altar. , Please stand outside the circle if you are not a man or a

woman!"

"Uh-huh~ Father Tian! Please..."

Commanding Duan coughed awkwardly, and walked out of the circle side by side

with Father Tian.

"Grandpa Emperor! I'll accompany you..."

The little princess happily jumped to the emperor's side, Princess Yaoyue also

walked over, and dozens of widows and concubines stood on the right hand side

of Emperor Shunyao together, but there were only four boys, all of whom were

semi-ignorant princes. And Huang Sun.

"Huh~ look at how you discipline the kids..."

Emperor Shunyao snorted displeasedly, who knows that Zhao Guanren also walked

over. A group of women and the emperor were shocked, and Yaoyue cursed in an

unpleasant manner: "You want to be shameless. , You are too embarrassed to

pretend to be a boy?"

"I have to be believed by someone to pretend, but it's a big deal, and I can't

let people pretend..."

Zhao Guanren dragged a teenage grandson and kicked him on the ass. The little

boy ran away with red ears. The angry prince screamed, and the old lady who

had caught the bear kid slapped a few times in the face.

"The virgins under the seat obey orders! Kneel forward and reverse Yin and

Yang..."

Heavenly Master Xuanyang waved his seven-star bronze sword and shouted. The

eight disciples immediately sat down, kneeling in the forefront, but Zhao

Guanren stepped forward and grabbed the two female disciples and said with a

wry smile: "You two What a virgin, do you want to commit the crime of

deceiving the emperor?"

"What? When did you break down and dare to deceive as a teacher..."

Heavenly Master Xuanyang stepped forward again in shock and anger, and the two

women's faces turned pale, and they squatted on the ground in horror and

confessed their mistakes.

"Xuan Yang! Can you do it? I think you are not as good as Yun Xuan..."

Emperor Shunyao looked at it very uncomfortably. Tianshi Xuanyang wiped the

cold sweat from his forehead and said: "Your Majesty! Poor Dao is also

deceived by these two evildoers. Could you please call the two virgins out to

help, just Just kneel on the ground, there will be no danger!"

"Yongning! Yongtai! You two stepped forward and knelt..."

Emperor Shunyao slowly raised his finger, the faces of the little princess and

Princess Yaoyue changed slightly, and Prince Duan hurriedly shouted: "Father!

This matter is extremely dangerous. How can you let them kneel forward, son

Help you call two court ladies!"

"Why don't you go forward and kneel, see if the evil spirit recognizes you..."

Emperor Shunyao gave him a cold look, and Prince Duan immediately did not dare

to speak. The little princess and Yaoyue could only bite the bullet and walked

forward and knelt down with the two female disciples.

"Don't move! Poor Dao will protect you well..."

Heavenly Master Xuanyang picked up a bowl of cinnabar water, and stepped

forward to draw a ghost-killing talisman on the back of Princess Yaoyue, but

as soon as it was the little princess's turn, he heard a "crack", and the good

porcelain bowl suddenly split into four petals. , A bowl of cinnabar water was

spilled, making everyone's expressions changed.
