Chapter Forty-Eight: The Inner Sage and the Outer King

"The guy who invented such a thing as Hehuansan is a genius!"

On the morning of the second day, Zhou Ming, who woke up from a large bed of carved phoenixes, pushed away the beautiful woman who was pressed on his chest, and sat up shirtless, complained depressedly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hehuan San, this mysterious drug that is many times more powerful than viagra, Zhou Ming has never heard of it, and after taking it, the terrifying effect of accelerating the blood, expanding the lower body rapidly, and not breaking out within half a moment, and may explode to death is simply a medical bug in this world.

Genius, only a genius, can concoct this amazing effect, so that he planted a big heel fight.

"Wrongdoer, you are so cruel to me, I can't move now, can't you be gentle?"

A jade hand tapped twice on his chest, but it was Princess Changping, who woke up slowly, and said with a hint of complaint.

"Who told you to drug me? How can you be so slutty this woman? I am your sister's husband, and you can do such a ridiculous thing? I have nothing to say to you. ”

Zhou Ming shook his head, his heart was very responsive, he lifted the quilt with his hand, and prepared to put on his clothes and leave.

However, when I got out of bed and looked around, except for the rags on the ground, there was not a single complete men's dress, but there were a lot of colorful women's clothes.

Seeing his busy search, Princess Changping on the bed was quiet for a while, and suddenly said to him: "Five years ago, I wrote to you many times, inviting you to come to my Yongle Palace as a guest, but you rejected me many times, ignored my love, and had a warm relationship with my sister Anping...... Since then, I've been looking forward to this day and doing what I want to do with you. ”

"What else is there in your mind besides these things? Normal people, dare to come to your Yongle Palace as a guest?"

Hearing the woman's words, Zhou Ming, who was rummaging through the cabinets, turned his head and said to her.

"Hmph! I know what kind of psychology you men have, don't you just can't see us, women, adultering with multiple men at the same time? Where are you men so good? Five years ago, there were only three male favorites in my palace who matched my interests, if you hadn't rejected me, how could I have reached such an extent? If you didn't reject me at that time, and were willing to be my concubines, I would also like to keep that woman's way and chase out those male favorites, but you wouldn't give me a chance......

Princess Changping's endless complaining words made Zhou Ming move, with a strange face, and complained in her heart: Wocao, blame me?

After a long time, he said: "Your Royal Highness, if you are a man, there is some truth in this, but you are a woman, how can a woman be the same as a man?"

"How is it different?!"

Princess Changping immediately retorted to him: "My queen mother told me that what men can do, we women can do, and even better! I just want to prove to the world that there is nothing that women can't do except men!"

Hearing this, a term popped up from Zhou Ming's mind:

Feminist.

This Princess Changping, like her mother Wu Mei, is a very rare feminist in this era.

The so-called feminism, the most concrete manifestation of which is that it is very strong, even better than men, and they can do what men can do, and they must do it better.

But you must know that in this era, it is a patriarchal era when rituals and religion are prevalent, and women are severely restrained and oppressed.

"Okay, let's do as you want, Your Highness Princess, can you lend me two men's clothes, I have to go back, I can't be so naked, right?"

"In the bottom box over there, there are some clothes that my deceased husband wore, so you can take out a few and wear them. ”

Speaking of her deceased husband, Princess Changping's expression darkened, and she fell into a burst of sad memories.

In fact, more than ten years ago, the princess of Changping was not what she is now, at that time, she was innocent, carefree, and outstanding, when she was thirteen or fourteen years old, she was named and proposed by the messenger of Zeng Tufan, Li Zhi and Wu Mei, did not want her beloved daughter to marry far away, and it was not good to refuse directly, so she built a Changping Taoist Temple for her to live, under the pretext of becoming a monk, so as to avoid harmony.

At the age of sixteen, Princess Changping offered to find a husband for herself, and fell in love with Xue Shao, the second son of Princess Chengyang, and recruited him as a concubine.

Later, Xue Shao's brother Xue Yi participated in the "After the Abolition of the Performance" incident against Wu Mei, Xue Shao was implicated in the defeat, and after being scolded by the rod for a hundred years, he starved to death in prison.

Therefore, the transformation and shaping of Princess Changping's personality, and Wu Mei, the queen of heaven, played a major role.

From the dusty box, he took out a robe and draped it over himself, fastened the buttoned belt, and after sorting out his hairstyle, Zhou Ming arched his hand to Princess Changping: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it's not too early, I'll leave here............" walked a few steps, remembered something, he turned around and asked: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I don't know if you have some contraceptive methods here?"

"Hmph! You men always ...... like this."

Princess Changping gave him a blank look: "There are eight male pets in my palace, a few years have passed, it can be seen that I am not careful? ”

"That's fine. ”

Zhou Ming nodded, arched his hand again, and strode away from Yongle Palace.

Looking at the back that was gradually moving away, after putting on the robe of the deceased husband, she had a hint of déjà vu, her eyes couldn't help but redden, she stroked her stomach with her hand, and murmured: "Mr. Zihua, how can you compare with those eight male pets? ”

……

A few months later.

In the Daming Palace, Zhou Ming found that the frequency of Princess Changping's appearance in front of everyone had decreased, and the number of visits to Emperor Li Zhi, who was getting sicker and sicker, had been reduced to a pitiful degree.

Until this day, passing by the back door of Yongle Palace, I happened to see a woman with a white veil on her face, supported by two palace maids, and holding a big belly, when she walked into Yongle Palace, Zhou Ming recognized her at a glance, and shouted to her: "Her Royal Highness the princess stays!"

The woman stopped.

Zhou Ming walked up to her, made a lightning move, ripped off the veil on the woman's face, and then stood for a few seconds, pointed to her bulging belly, and asked directly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, who should be the father of the fetus in your womb?"

"Of course it's yours, who else but you?"

Seeing Zhou Ming's bewildered look, Princess Changping covered her mouth and giggled.

"You—Didn't you say you took the medicine, how did you ......?"

Zhou Ming felt that his head was bigger, what time is it now? Emperor Li Zhi, there are only a few months left at most, and Princess Changping actually made such a play, yes, in terms of time, the seed seems to have been sown by him, and she wants to give birth to a son or a monkey for herself, Zhou Ming can't care, but she also has to pay attention to proportion, what kind of system is this?

If it is seen by other members of the royal family......

"Don't worry, the queen mother already knows about this, and she hasn't punished me, what are you afraid of?

Princess Changping, who was already thirty-two years old, winked at him mischievously, still like a sixteen-year-old girl, giggling at him, and trembling with flowers.

"Do it yourself, don't implicate me. ”

said a word painlessly, Zhou Ming put this matter behind him, and said in his heart: It's not that I don't want to be responsible, it's just that you are not an ordinary woman, if there is a scandal between us, I'm afraid that the next day, I will have to escape from this place that is not suitable for staying for a long time.

Another three months passed.

Again in the Hanyuan Palace, in front of Emperor Li Zhi's sickbed, when he saw Princess Changping, her big belly had disappeared, except that her face was a little pale, and her body exuded a faint smell of milk stains, everything else was as usual, and when she said a lot of words to her father Li Zhi, Zhou Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly, he heard a violent cough in his ears, as well as the vomiting sound of "vomit ~ vomit ~", turned his head to look, and was stunned:

I don't know what's going on, Emperor Li Zhi, who was in a good situation in the past, suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood at this time, which frightened everyone and cried.

Two more days passed, the situation got worse and worse, and Emperor Li Zhi fell into a coma, high fever, wakefulness, and vomiting blood, and the time of wakefulness was getting shorter and shorter, and it seemed that the limit was approaching.

This morning, after a bowl of ginseng soup was served, Emperor Li Zhi's consciousness seemed to have become very sober, he called Zhou Ming over, and in his ear, made a request that surprised him:

He asked Zhou Ming to write him an article.

Write an essay describing all the exploits he achieved during his reign.

In other words, write an essay that narrates life, praises merits, and concludes the coffin in advance.

Zhou Ming consulted Wu Mei, the queen of heaven on the side, Wu Mei knew that this was not quite in line with the etiquette, but she still nodded, asked someone to bring the desk, presented pen and paper, and approved Zhou Ming to write an article-

"The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty"

This article has more than 3,000 words, and it describes Emperor Li Zhi's generosity, benevolence, and harmony with brothers during his time as the crown prince, to the political knowledge and good use of people, the intensification of the imperial examination, the formulation of good government to alleviate the contradictions of the people, and the compilation and improvement of laws to greatly reduce the social crime rate; and then to the military aspect, famous generals emerge one after another, successively conquering the Western Regions, pacifying the Eastern and Western Turks, breaking through Gaoji, Bailuo and other countries, and making the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty the largest in history.

This "Ming Emperor Benji" concludes by saying:

"Throughout the life of His Majesty, benevolence and filial piety, love the people like a son, every time there is a death penalty, it will be reviewed three times, after confirming the guilt, and then the collusion will be executed, in the people, many times to reduce the levy, every time there is a famine, will respond in a timely manner, order to reduce food and clothing, relief to the victims, thirty-four years, all over the world, only the people have changed, it can be said that it has never been seen before......

His Majesty is wise and martial, and uses troops with foreign countries all the year round, but it does not greatly damage the national strength and people's strength, expands the territory, conquers countless foreign races around it, and makes the Turks flee far away, Tufan shrinks his hand, and all the countries in the Western Regions come to the court, towering and strong Zhou, and the voice spreads far away from other regions...... In internal and foreign affairs, the Shang clan and foreign races, their own countries and other countries, the way of miscellaneous overlords, close and far, the inner and outer kings, is the first saint of the ages!"

The historian read this article to the end, and Li Zhi, who was on the sickbed, smiled with satisfaction on his face when he heard the words "Inner Sage and Outer King", the corners of his mouth moved, and he seemed to have read it twice, and then, his body was weak, his arms were drooping, and he still had that smile on his face, and he died suddenly.

"Your Majesty Emperor Ming, it's time to bury the heavens!"

The eunuch Ma Dexi had blood in his tears, fell to his knees, and cried bitterly.
