Chapter 16 Concubine Liu

Outside Yanfu Palace, Xu Shouyun bid farewell to Li Jing, and then walked into the palace.

There are second-class eunuchs guarding the gate of the palace, but these eunuchs are always by the concubine's side.

If you really feel that you are a first-class eunuch, you can look down on them, then you will be the one who is unlucky.

After all, he is a family, and he is an outsider.

This is also the rule of the Wei court. All concubines will have a corresponding number of eunuchs and maids, and the concubine will be matched with eight eunuchs and eight maids.

These belonged to confidantes, who followed the concubine to serve day and night, and lived in this palace.

The grade may not be high, but this is their territory after all.

The court requested that the first-class eunuchs take turns to be on duty, and used to solve some problems for each concubine.

Of course, the main purpose is to supervise. No one knows what the concubine has done when his own people gather together.

An eunuch can be placed in the past, just to deter him, don't even think about doing bad things.

And there will always be a chief eunuch next to the concubine, a fifth-rank official position, three rank higher than Xu Shouyun.

In the court of the Great Wei Dynasty, there were seven concubines in total, and there were 25 concubines below, but they could not be called in the word Tai, and there were more than 70 concubines, and there were more than [-] concubines.

However, after the empress ascended the throne, most of the concubines were sent away. After all, staying in the harem was of no use.

This is also a kind of grace.

Of course, it doesn't matter if some are willing to stay in the palace.

Just to serve this small group of people, there are as many as 1 eunuchs and maids in the palace, which is extremely extravagant.

"Stop, this is Yanfu Palace, no trespassing allowed."

As Xu Shouyun appeared, the two eunuchs guarding the gate immediately spoke. They stared at Xu Shouyun with a hint of vigilance in their eyes.

"First-class eunuch Xu Shouyun, by His Majesty's order, came to Yanfu Palace to serve Concubine Liu."

Xu Shouyun took out his waist badge and revealed his identity.

The two were a little curious, but after reading the waist card, they said immediately: "Grandpa Xu, wait a moment, servant girl to report."

Obviously, the two have not received relevant news.

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

To be honest, Xu Shouyun doesn't like being called father-in-law very much, but the other party's address is correct, which is a bit embarrassing.

Standing outside the palace and waiting, not long after, the eunuch who was going to inform came quickly and said with a smile: "Eunuch Xu, the concubine let you in."

He smiled and said, Xu Shouyun nodded, took back the badge and said: "Since I am here to serve the concubine, I will be a family from now on. I am a year or two older than you, just call me Brother Xu."

"I went first."

Xu Shouyun patted the other party's shoulder, and walked towards the palace after speaking.

Walking into the palace, the Yanfu Palace is extraordinarily magnificent. All this is due to the credit of the previous emperors, that is, the emperor who has not been in the early court for 30 years.

If he didn't wantonly build the palace, it wouldn't be so magnificent.

The palace of the Great Wei Dynasty was many times larger than the Forbidden City in the previous life. In the Forbidden City in the previous life, the emperor could only sit on a dragon sedan chair, but it was in the palace of the Great Wei Dynasty.

You have to take the dragon drive, which is the royal carriage, otherwise, it doesn't matter whether people are tired after coming and going, the point is to waste time.

Stepping on the steps made of white jade, Xu Shouyun lowered his head slightly.

When he came outside the palace, Xu Shouyun's voice sounded slowly.

"My subordinate, Xu Shouyun, was ordered to come and serve the empress dowager."

Xu Shouyun didn't go in.

After all, he still understands the rules in the palace.

But as soon as this sentence was said, a voice of dissatisfaction sounded first.

"Subordinate?"

"Aren't you from Yanfu Palace? You're just an eunuch with miscellaneous tasks, and you also claim to be a subordinate?"

The voice was slightly feminine and old, obviously an old eunuch.

To be reasonable, calling yourself a subordinate is a more intimate term, while slaves and servants emphasize the distance between master and servant.

The reason why Xu Shouyun calls himself a subordinate is not to be obedient, but simply because he doesn't want to call himself a slave, so he can't say it out loud.

It's just that Xu Shouyun has nothing to say, so he can only pretend to be dead. Anyway, he has a backer, and even if Concubine Liu doesn't like him, she can't kill him.

It's a big deal to change to a concubine to serve.

If it really doesn't work, finding a concubine who is a bit hungrier would be a big deal of sacrificing oneself.

After all, in the entire Great Wei court, I have my own magic weapon.

Do not believe unfavorable.

"It's just a trivial matter. Since His Majesty arranged to come, it is a family."

A gentle voice sounded, and it seemed a little weak. Just listening to this voice made people feel protective.

"Your name is Xu Shouyun, right?"

"It's a good name. From now on, I will have to trouble Eunuch Xu for the affairs of Yanfu Palace."

Concubine Liu's voice sounded.

Very gentle, but this title is a bit unpleasant.

"Toffee, don't worry, the subordinates will do their best."

Xu Shouyun nodded, and after saying this, he slowly raised his head, and there was an old eunuch standing in front of him, about 60 years old, with haughty eyes, looking at him from top to bottom.

There was still some rouge powder on the old eunuch's face, exuding a faint scent of flowers, which was disgusting.

"Twife, you just have such a good temper. These slaves are very thoughtful."

"If you don't take good care of it, the sky will be turned upside down in the future."

The old eunuch made a sound, and after seeing Xu Shouyun's appearance, he became even more displeased.

For this kind of old hermaphrodite, Xu Shouyun didn't want to argue about anything. He didn't come here to quarrel, but to do his job well and do his own thing well.

Waiting for his lord to make great achievements, mention his position by the way, and then join forces to harm Da Wei, and his life will be complete.

What's the point of arguing with this guy?
"Okay, Eunuch Qian, don't be rude."

Concubine Liu's personality is indeed very good, even when scolding others, she is so gentle.

It's a pity that you can't see the face.

But just when Xu Shouyun felt sorry, light footsteps sounded, and not long after, the figure of Concubine Liu appeared in his eyes.

In an instant, Xu Shouyun was slightly absent-minded.

Her complexion is as crystal clear as jade, like a crescent moon giving birth to halos, like flowers and trees piled up with snow, her appearance is quiet and her body is leisurely, delicate and tactful, she is beyond beautiful.

Dressed in white plain clothes, it perfectly displayed the gentleness of Jiangnan women.

It's like after a rain, countless men hold umbrellas in their hearts and women stand on the bridge, looking at themselves quietly.

This kind of beauty is different from the stunning beauty of the person I'm connecting with, and it's not as sexy as Chu Yunrou's sister Yu, but a kind of misty and rainy beauty in the south of the Yangtze River.

It makes people feel pity, but also makes people feel gentle, and there is a beauty that wants to be hugged and protected.

Of course, if you really want to embrace him, you're afraid that even the people you connect with won't be able to save you, and your head will be beheaded on the spot.

Like a white lotus.

Out of silt but not stained.

"I've seen Concubine Liu."

Xu Shouyun bowed his body and bowed to the other party.

"Did Eunuch Xu enter the palace at such a young age?"

The moment she saw Xu Shouyun, Concubine Liu also showed surprise. After all, she was too young, she looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, just like a teenager.

Not only is he young, but Xu Shouyun's appearance is also extremely rare. If the clothes on his body are not eunuch official uniforms, but white clothes, he really feels like a gentleman and a son like jade.

At first glance, Xu Shouyun won the visual favor of Concubine Liu.

"Back to the concubine, my family is poor, and I was sent to the palace. Although I am younger, my subordinates have done a lot of work at home and know how to serve me."

Xu Shouyun opened his mouth to answer, which was a normal way of responding.

Concubine Liu nodded, then sighed and said: "They are all hard-working people, and they will live well in Yanfu Palace in the future. As long as they don't provoke disputes, if there is any trouble, this palace will help you out."

Don't brag or criticize, this heart is really good.

"Thank you, Concubine."

Xu Shouyun opened his mouth, but after saying this, the old eunuch beside him spoke up.

"Grand Concubine, it's already dawn. Didn't you say yesterday that you went to the Manyun Pavilion today to enjoy the scenery? The servant has already asked someone to prepare the sedan chair."

The old eunuch smiled and mentioned this matter.

Obviously, he did it on purpose. This kind of person is very smart. Xu Shouyun's arrival made him aware of the crisis.

After all, Xu Shouyun is young and handsome, and everyone has a love for beauty. He is very worried that Xu Shouyun will be favored by Concubine Liu, which will make him lose power.

"it is good."

Concubine Liu spoke softly, and then entered the depths of the hall.

After Concubine Liu left, Xu Shouyun felt a chill and looked up to see the old eunuch's eyes.
