"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.
