There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 115 Tiger Roaring Pill

Those officials were frightened half to death, but they didn't dare to resist the order, so they could only weep one by one, took their family members wrapped tightly, and rushed to the mouth of the river embankment.

Xia Houjue was in charge of counting the victims of the disaster, while Tang Wanning was in charge of planning the supplies, ensuring that the things at hand were delivered directly to the victims without going through the hands of as many people as possible.

It took me half a month to be so busy.

……

In Beijing at the beginning of September, an autumn rain just fell.

The gradually cooler weather did not affect the prosperity of the capital, the streets were still bustling with people, and the palace was still singing and dancing.

It is in sharp contrast with the scene of floating corpses in the floods in the south of the Yangtze River.

In early September, the Double Ninth Festival, a new batch of beauties entered the palace.

The queen set up a Chongyang family banquet in the imperial garden, and invited concubines from the harem, high-ranking, favored, and new beauties, beautiful, well-behaved, and charming.

For a time, the imperial garden was filled with warblers and swallows, singing and dancing.

The old emperor, who was over half a century old, was surrounded by a group of beautiful beauties, feeding grapes, peeling lychees, tasting fine wine, tasting delicacies, so happy.

"Your majesty, how are the new sisters serving you recently?" The queen asked smilingly, waving her painted fan.

She sat at a table opposite the emperor with several high-ranking concubines, and the emperor and empress faced each other from a distance.

"Haha! Good! They are all sensible! My heart is won! The empress really has the bearing of a mother!" The emperor couldn't help but praised.

The fact that the queen presents him with beauties from time to time has really won his heart.

She is sensible, and of course she reciprocates. All the beauties in the harem will never surpass the queen in favor. All the glory she wants, as long as she can give it, she will definitely give it.

This is also a tacit understanding.

"Since the emperor likes them, how much do you want to love them? They all come from a long way, and the journey is not easy!"

"With the queen here, I am very relieved!" The emperor waved his hand.

The beauty beside her heard the conversation between the emperor and empress, and she was secretly delighted.

The emperor likes them, and the queen also likes them, and the days to come will definitely not be sad.

Who would have thought that these mere dancing girls would have such a fortune, that they could become emperors' women.

"Your Majesty! Eat grapes!"

"Your Majesty, this lychee is white and tender, try it!"

"Your Majesty, this wine is the most mellow, take a sip!"

Everyone is more charming to please.

What they don't know is that women like them who enter the palace, as long as the emperor passes the fresh end, they will be reduced to the group of women in the harem.No one can remember it anymore.

As for their life and death?Sorry, that's not something the Queen should think about.

Even if they died, they would just be swept up in a pile of broken grass and carried to the mass grave, and they wouldn't even get a coffin.

After all, the queen wants to be a good queen, to reduce the expenses of the harem, and to set an example to the world.

How could she raise so many women to cause trouble for herself, isn't it good to have concubines in the harem?
……

The Chongyang family banquet lasts from noon to evening.

The queen sat until mid-afternoon, said that she was tired and led people away, and several high-ranking concubines also led people away first.

Only the emperor and a few new favorite beauties remained.

The night was as cold as water, and the cold air swept across.

The old emperor thought that there were no important political affairs recently, so he took a few beauties back to his bedroom, Jinhua Palace, and continued to enjoy himself.

Jinhua Hall is brightly lit from evening until late at night.

Silk and bamboo wind music, the melodious sounds, singing and dancing, and the caress of red sleeves are comparable to the arrogance and lust of wine ponds and meat forests.

After another two hours, the night was already deep, the old emperor was exhausted and finally tired.

Seeing all the beauties who were about to take their leave one after another, his heart ached and he was clamoring that he couldn't bear it, so he waved his hand.

"Stay all tonight, bed attendant!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The women knelt and kowtowed tenderly.

The old emperor was satisfied: "Hahaha! Alright, tonight you all go to bed and serve well, and I will reward you a lot!"

"Yes!"

The women have been specially trained, they know how to please men so well, after saluting, they lined up one by one to take a bath and change clothes.

The chief eunuch, Li Baoyuan, was sweating profusely, and risked his life to persuade him.

"Your majesty, you must take care of the dragon body! This...isn't it..."

"Nonsense! It's rare for me to be interested today, so you don't need to say too much, it will ruin my good deed!" The old emperor didn't listen to persuasion at all.

But he was in a good mood today and didn't care about it.

Li Baoyuan didn't dare to persuade him anymore, so he just shut up and stood aside.

The old emperor took out a sandalwood box from beside his pillow and asked mysteriously.

"Do you know what this is?"

He opened the sandalwood brocade box, revealing a bunch of shiny black pills the size of a thumb.

Li Baoyuan was stunned and shook his head in a daze.

"Looking at it, it must be a good thing, but this old slave is short-sighted and has never seen it before!"

"Hahaha! You old bastard! You have been with me for so many years, so you have some knowledge!" The old emperor laughed and took back the box, putting it aside like a baby.

"This is the pill that the queen just found for me. It is said to have come in from Tianzhu Kingdom. It is called... Huxiao Pill!"

"As long as you eat one grain, no matter how weak your body is, you will be able to live immediately, and the golden gun will not fall!"

He has some longing.

"To tell you the truth, I am old, and I haven't experienced the feeling of life and death for a long time. Tonight... I will give it a try!"

After speaking, he muttered to himself again.

"After all, she is indeed my queen. She can always think uprightly for me, and solve all my worries for me!"

Li Baoyuan looked bewildered, half-understood, stunned for a long time with a wry smile and bowed to answer.

"The emperor and the empress are deeply in love, this is the blessing of our Great Xia Dynasty!"

"You old bastard, you can talk!" Emperor Jing Yuan glanced at him and said with a smile.

"Okay, you go down, you don't need to serve tonight, I will give you a day off!"

"By the way, send away all the maids and eunuchs here, I want to enjoy it quietly tonight!"

"Yes!"

Li Baoyuan was respectful and respectful.

When he was about to leave, he felt a little uneasy.

This kind of play is really so magical, making people change from old to young?Why did he not believe it?

Although the emperor is a real dragon emperor, he is also a normal person. Aren't normal people born, old, sick and dying, or the reverse?

Could it be a lie?

But if you think about it again, it probably won't happen. If there is no effect, the empress will not offer it to the emperor. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

That's either...

Li Baoyuan shook his head and didn't dare to think any more, he staggered out of the Jinhua Hall, and followed the imperial decree, taking everyone in the Jinhua Hall with him.

……

Emperor Jingyuan took a pill with the tea and went to take a bath and change clothes contentedly.

When he came back again, the beauties on the dragon couch had already been lined up neatly, obediently and delicately waiting for his luck.
