Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1509 Who is she who likes sweets?

Emperor Yuanwu subconsciously wanted to go to court, and then he looked at his regular clothes and then remembered that his uncle was in charge of the court, so he didn't need to worry about it.

Because he was really hungry, he asked Eunuch Lu to rush to the imperial dining room. The entire imperial dining room was prepared in a hurry, and breakfast was served not long after.

The breakfast table is full of soft, glutinous and sweet food.

Emperor Yuanwu naturally picked up a bowl of lean meat porridge and put it into his mouth. He looked at the table full of sweets and pastries, and was stunned for a moment.

"Lu Xing, why have you prepared so much? Who am I going to feed it to?"

Eunuch Lu was worried and embarrassed, and the little chamberlain outside came to report: "Your Majesty, the four ladies heard that you woke up and came to visit you. They are now waiting outside the palace."

The fourth concubine of Emperor Yuanwu was noble, virtuous and virtuous.

The imperial concubine came from the descendant of Emperor Yuanwu's mother, and it was Xiao Meiruo who almost became King Qi's concubine.

However, because Xiao Meiruo participated in the steaming of Lan Lingling, Emperor Yuanwu was furious and was thrown into the cold palace.

Later, the Queen Mother and Princess Yuzhen both passed away. In order to appease his mother's descendants, Emperor Yuanwu took her out of the cold palace, but never paid any attention to her.

Below the imperial concubine is the concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu was the granddaughter of the former crown prince and Taifu. Although Taifu Liu had been implicated in the affair of the former crown prince, Taifu Liu's family was full of nobles and nobles. Concubine Shu's entry into the palace also represented Emperor Yuanwu's rebellion against Taifu Liu's family.

Because the court cannot be filled only with new nobles, it must be guarded by a few respected veterans. This can demonstrate the emperor's benevolence, and at the same time tell outsiders that as long as they keep to themselves and don't rush for quick success or take the wrong approach, old men and women of all ages can still be active in the court.

Under the Shu concubine, there is the Xian concubine.

Concubine Xian also had the same surname of Liu, and she was the daughter of General Liu Xiaojie of Fuyuan who guarded Guiyan City.

The entry of the virtuous concubine into the palace was Emperor Yuanwu's reward for Liu Xiaojie, and it was also Emperor Yuanwu's restraint on Liu Xiaojie.

Under the virtuous concubines, there are also virtuous concubines.

Concubine De is the niece of Mr. Li, the Minister of Punishment, and the cousin of Li Yuan. She comes from the Li family.

Because Master Li had outstanding political achievements in disaster relief in Yangzhou, Emperor Yuanwu recognized the Li family's daughter as a virtuous concubine, which was also a way to praise the Li family.

These are the concubines in Emperor Yuanwu's harem.

Emperor Yuanwu frowned naturally: "Tell them, I'm fine. It's freezing cold. Tell them to go back!"

But Emperor Yuanwu soon changed his mind.

He didn't want to waste the things on the table.

So he called to the little chambermaid who was quietly retreating: "That's all, it's so early in the morning, so they probably didn't use their breakfast. Let them come in and have a meal with me. Don't waste it."

Eunuch Lu was shocked, and Bu Cai's hands couldn't help but tremble, but there was no reason to stop him, so he could only pretend to say casually.

"Your Majesty has never had breakfast with ladies before. This is a precedent."

Emperor Yuanwu glanced at the other table: "Bring all these sweet things over and let them eat at that table. I'm worried that they will get sick."

Eunuch Lu was relieved and carefully brought over the plates of sweets.

Regarding Lan Lingling's matter, the uncle and his wife had given strict orders.

The concubine Taishu directly issued a strict order forbidding anyone in the harem to mention Lan Lingling; while His Highness Taishu was in charge of the previous dynasty and also made Lan Lingling's name a taboo.

Eunuch Lu was not worried that the ladies would speak carelessly, but he was worried that His Majesty and the ladies would be entangled.

He was not sure whether His Majesty would still remember Miss Lingling, but he did not want His Majesty to get involved with several empresses at this time, lest if he remembered the past, the affairs of the harem would not be clear.

Seeing that His Majesty did not want to get involved with the ladies, he finally felt relieved.

Soon, four beautiful empresses came together, each of them dressed very plainly, which showed that they were considerate and did not make Emperor Yuanwu unhappy by dressing up in fancy clothes when he had just recovered from his illness.Although this was the first time Emperor Yuanwu invited them to have a meal, no one showed any flattery, which showed that they were well-educated and had decent expressions and manners.

"Your Majesty is safe."

The four concubines bowed eagerly, with their submissive and gentle looks, and their beautiful and refined faces, who could dislike them.

However, Emperor Yuanwu had no curiosity about these four concubines, whom he had almost never met before. There were only a few elegant figures in his peripheral vision.

He didn't even raise his head: "No need to be so polite, just get up and eat."

Eunuch Lu winked, and the chamberlain immediately bowed to invite you: "Ladies, Your Majesty is worried about giving you a few after you are sick, so I would like to ask the four ladies to share today's breakfast here."

The concubines didn't say anything and sat down on another table obediently.

Concubine Xiao originally relied on her relationship with Emperor Yuanwu as cousins. She jumped up and down a lot when she first entered the palace. After spending some time in the cold palace and without the support of the Queen Mother, she is now very calm.

When he came in, he didn't even glance at Emperor Yuanwu.

The remaining concubines, each representing a force in the court, were too cautious and did not dare to seize this opportunity to work hard.

But when they saw the food on the table, they, who were extremely well-educated, couldn't help but look surprised.

They are all sweets, who eats these so early in the morning?

But since this was a meal given by Emperor Yuanwu, they did not dare to refuse, so they had to pick up the cakes and eat them as if they were chewing wax.

After eating only a few pieces, I couldn't swallow it anymore.

Because they all know that eating too much sweets is not only easy to gain weight, but also bad for the skin, so they don't eat these things as meals.

Although Emperor Yuanwu didn't pay attention to that table, he was clearly aware of the movements there.

When he had almost finished his porridge, he put down his chopsticks and said, "If you are interested, please go back. I like peace and quiet. There is no need to come here if you have nothing to do. It will be warmer in the palace."

After saying that, Emperor Yuanwu rolled his sleeves and went to the Chengming Hall next door.

Eunuch Lu followed behind and kept persuading: "Your Majesty, you are not well yet."

As he said that, he quickly held up the paper umbrella to block the scattered snowflakes from falling for Emperor Yuanwu.

Emperor Yuanwu pushed away the umbrella in his hand and let the snowflakes fall in his hair. He reached out and picked one up. When the snowflakes turned into ice-cold water, he suddenly hugged his head and showed an extremely painful expression.

"Who? Who likes snow? Who is it?"

He had a splitting headache, and there was a vague image of a beautiful woman in his mind. He couldn't see the features clearly, but the two big braids hanging on his chest were so clear.

Eunuch Lu was so frightened that he dropped his umbrella and quickly went to help him: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Emperor Yuanwu suddenly grabbed Eunuch Lu's wrist: "Tell me! Who likes snow? Who jumps into the cold snow when they see it? Who is she?"

Of course Eunuch Lu did not dare to say: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"

Emperor Yuanwu shook off Eunuch Lu's hand and held his head in agony: "Who is it? Not them! They don't like sweets! Who likes to eat them?!"

Eunuch Lu's eyes instantly turned red. Only then did he understand that His Majesty had let the four empresses in to find "her" who likes sweets.

But he couldn't say it, so he had to resist the urge to express his joy: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will think about it with you."

Emperor Yuanwu's head seemed to hurt even more. As soon as he took a step, he staggered. Before he could reach the corridor, he suddenly fell into the snow and fell unconscious.

"His Majesty!"

Eunuch Lu called in panic, extremely anxious.
