Chapter 76: Strategies for the Harem's Struggle for Favor (6)

     The Queen Mother took all the showgirls and attendants to the lotus stage in the center of the lotus pond, while enjoying the lotus flowers, while writing poems and drinking, and performing a dance, and playing the qin.

     They hid all their scheming and emotions that they didn't like each other. Everyone talked and laughed to please the Queen Mother, but it was a lively and harmonious scene.

     “The emperor is here!”

     Hearing that the emperor was coming, everyone immediately became more excited, with unstoppable joy on their faces, thinking that they must perform well in front of the emperor later, maybe they can take this opportunity to get the emperor's favor.

     Everyone saluted the emperor, and after the emperor saluted the Queen Mother, he walked to the seat next to the Queen Mother and sat down.

     The next step is when these people work hard to express themselves.

     It was the Queen Mother who called the emperor specifically. The Queen Mother knew very well what kind of physical condition the emperor was in. Because of poisoning, he was like a big tree that was tall on the outside but riddled with holes inside. Although for the sake of the emperor's health, it is not advisable to have too much concubines in the harem, but in order to give birth to more princes, and in order to prevent the Tao Yuan’s family from being spoiled and favored alone, the Queen Mother wanted the emperor to have a few more concubines.

     Therefore, the Queen Mother specially created opportunities for them to perform well in front of the emperor, which was also hinting that the emperor should also favor others.

     Especially Ye Rong, when Tao Yuan had already served many times, Ye Rong hadn't served once, and the Queen Mother was a little anxious. Therefore, this time the lotus banquet was actually mainly to give Ye Rong a chance to perform.

    Of course Xiao Junye understood what the Queen Mother meant. Because his body was poisoned from time to time, he was tortured very uncomfortably, so he didn't have much thought in this regard. But he also wants to have a prince sooner. Although he doesn't know how long his body can last, as long as he lives for one day, he will make more plans for his children. Even if he dies, the throne must be inherited by his son, and it must be the eldest son born to the queen.

     Thinking of this, Xiao Junye couldn't help but look at Tao Yuan. During this period of time, as long as he (XJY) held his (TY) soft and fragrant body in his (XJY) arms, he (XJY) would immediately be unable to hold it, and every time he was served, he got a great sense of satisfaction in his body and heart. Seeing him sitting there in a dignified manner at this moment, regardless of his appearance and temperament, he is more outstanding than others. Just sitting like this, he already has the grace and demeanor that a queen should have.

     Tao Yuan felt Xiao Junye's gaze, turned his head and glanced at him. After the eyes of the two collided, Tao Yuan immediately turned his gaze away, making it look like he was embarrassed to be seen, so he avoided his gaze.

     Seeing his cheeks flushed slightly, Xiao Junye felt more affection in his heart, and felt that he (TY) was attractive and cute. But when he (TY) was in bed, he (TY) was demon-like again, and even his (XJY) heart and soul was taken away together.

     Ye Rong performed very hard, but seeing Xiao Junye looking at Tao Yuan all the time, but never looking at him, he couldn't help but feel even more anxious. After he entered the palace, he only found a chance. When King Yu entered the palace, he had an affair with him several times. However, with the emperor, he has never had more opportunities to be alone, and the emperor has never taken him to the bedchamber. Thinking that the wedding is approaching, he can't help but worry.
