In the Empress's bedroom in the imperial harem.
Li Yanyun and Qianxue were chatting together. However, there was still a trace of nervousness on their faces. The two of them had already heard about the political matters discussed in the Imperial Court, especially those that involved the two of them.
Therefore, they didn't go out of the palace but waited quietly for the news together.
"Thud! Thud! "
There was a rush of footsteps.
It was the palace maid.
It was the palace maid in Li Yanyun's palace. She walked in quickly with small steps and was about to bow to Li Yanyun. However, Li Yanyun was a little anxious. She said, "No need to bow. Tell me, how's the matter discussed in the imperial court?"
The palace maid looked excited. She said, "Your Majesty, Imperial Censor Yang Yousan gathered six imperial censors and advised His Majesty to enrich the imperial harem. At the same time, he thought that the Empress and Imperial Concubine were disgracing the country by doing business."
As soon as she said that, Li Yanyun's expression changed slightly.
Qianxue also clenched her fists.
The two women were quite nervous. Although they were noble, they were women and children in the imperial court after all. In addition, the two women were destined not to be involved in politics. Therefore, Yang Yousan led a group of imperial censors to advise them, which was also a huge blow to them.
Li Yanyun asked nervously, "How did His Majesty deal with it?"
The palace maid said, "Yang Yousan was put in prison and will be executed on a date."
"Ah!"
Hearing this, Li Yanyun exclaimed.
She stood up at once and said, "How could His Majesty execute the imperial censor for us? If he did so, wouldn't he offend all the officials in the imperial court? Even His Majesty would make countless enemies. From now on, His Majesty will be cursed as a fatuous emperor. "
She was very anxious. Although Du Qi protected them, Du Qi had to bear too much pressure.
"No, I have to see His Majesty."
Li Yanyun's heart was on Du Qi. She was touched by Du Qi's protection, but she didn't want Du Qi to be affected. If the situation in the imperial court and the stability of Xia Xia were affected, the loss would outweigh the gain.
Qianxue also stood up immediately.
Prepare to go together.
The two women were of the same mind. Du Qi treated them very well, but if they caused a lot of trouble for Du Qi because of their matters, then they would feel guilty and sorry for Du Qi.
When the palace maid heard Li Yanyun's words, she quickly said, "Empress, Imperial Concubine, don't worry. Let me finish. It's okay. His Majesty has already dealt with the previous matters."
Hearing this, Li Yanyun was slightly relieved. She and Qianxue sat down again.
The palace maid was beaming with joy as she said, "His Majesty is extremely forceful when dealing with them. Moreover, Yang Yousan was not a clean person to begin with. He had accepted a bribe of 60,000 strings of cash and specifically advised His Majesty to select concubines to enrich the harem. In particular, Lu Jinsheng, the businessman who bribed Yang Yousan, is a spy of the Tang dynasty. He wants his daughter to enter the imperial harem as a concubine to murder His Majesty. "
Speaking of this, the palace maid paused for a moment before continuing, "Now that Yang Yousan is in prison, the ministers are intimidated. No one dares to say a word against His Majesty. This time, His Majesty intimidated the ministers so that none of them dared to say a word. "
After hearing this, Li Yanyun and Qianxue breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that Yang Yousan had a problem.
If Yang Yousan had a problem, Du Qi would be able to shut Youyou's mouth after he dealt with Yang Yousan. If Yang Yousan had no problem, but Du Qi had directly dealt with him, it would be easy for people to criticize him.
Li Yanyun said, "Is there any other news?"
The palace maid continued, "After His Majesty dealt with Yang Yousan, he ordered the ministers that the harem affairs were His Majesty's private affairs. He also said that whether His Majesty had many children or not had nothing to do with the long-term stability of Xia Xia. He strictly ordered the ministers to forbid them from remonstrating on this matter. Once someone did, they would be severely punished. This became an iron law. From then on, no one was allowed to use this as an excuse. "
Li Yanyun and Qianxue heard this. Although the two women were strong women, they were easily moved. After listening to the palace maid's words, their eyes were already wet, and there were crystal tears hovering.
They were moved.
Du Qi treated them so well.
When the palace maid saw Li Yanyun and Qianxue's appearance, she was actually envious. There was no one in the world who was like an emperor. It was enviable that he doted on his wife so much.
The palace maid continued, "In addition, about the business of the Empress and the Imperial Concubine, the officials of the Censorate said that it was a disgrace to the country, but His Majesty refuted them one by one. His Majesty said in front of the ministers that the two Empresses' business was a model for all the people in the world and a model of self-reliance. His Majesty supported the business, and this matter was settled. No one was allowed to discuss it again. After this, the Empress and the Imperial Concubine don't have to worry. His Majesty has dealt with everything properly. "
At this moment, Li Yanyun and Qianxue could no longer suppress the excitement in their hearts. The hot tears poured down like a flood from a broken dam. They rolled down their cheeks and rolled down their clothes.
But there were smiles on their faces.
These were tears of joy.
For women, no matter how good their business was, they had to find a good man after all. If they found the wrong man, no matter how successful their business was, they would be sad and devastated.
When the palace maid saw this scene, she didn't persuade them, because it was not sad.
When Li Yanyun and Qianxue were moved to tears, Du Qi came. After dealing with the government affairs, he remembered that today's matter involved the two women. He needed to come and see, so he asked people to come without notice.
However, as soon as Du Qi entered the palace, he saw the two women crying. He wondered, "What's wrong with you two? Who provoked you? Tell me, I'll uphold justice for you. "
Li Yanyun waved her hand to let the palace maid leave and said, "Husband, you provoked us."
"Me?"
After hearing this, Du Qi's nature of a steel man was exposed. He said with a confused look, "I'm fine. I didn't say anything. How did I provoke you and make you cry?"
Li Yanyun got up and said, "Husband, thank you."
Qianxue also said, "Thank you, husband."
The two women thanked him at the same time.
At this moment, Du Qi finally understood. It should be the news from the court meeting, so the two women bowed like this. He waved his hand and said, "It's just a small matter. There's no need to thank me. The two of you and I are husband and wife. There's no need to thank me. "
Li Yanyun said, "But today's matter, if you didn't protect us, we would be criticized. Moreover, because of the matter between me and Sister Qianxue, you were implicated. "
Qianxue said, "Thank you for your protection, husband."
Du Qi hugged and said with a smile, "Isn't this the most normal thing? You are my women. How can you be criticized? The officials in the imperial court had no right to interfere in this matter. If they want to criticize, I won't agree. "
The two women laughed.
And the two women were very happy.
"Knock! Knock! "
There was a knock on the door outside the hall. A palace maid was a little timid and said, "Your Majesty!"
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly dissipated.
Du Qi let go of the person, but Li Yanyun frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
The palace maid said, "Your Majesty, today you have decided that the perfume will be sold at half past nine in the morning. You said that you would go incognito. Now that the time is almost up, you should go. "
It was not yet nine in the morning.
Because Du Qi's court meeting was very early, it was not too late to deal with the court affairs. It was not yet nine in the morning.
After hearing this, Li Yanyun looked at Du Qi and said, "Husband, come with us. Sister Qianxue and I have discussed it. We will go and see in person today. After all, today is the day we set the opening day of the perfume. We have already publicized it among the officials. According to the response we got, it is very good. Today is worth looking forward to. "
Du Qi said, "I have nothing to do. Let's go."
Li Yanyun and Qianxue also beamed with joy when they heard it. The two women and Du Qi changed their clothes and put on ordinary clothes. They went out of the palace with a few guards and went straight to the East City of Gaochang City. There were many markets outside the East City of Gaochang City.
There were many shops gathered together. People came and went, and it was very lively.
