Before the Mo family and the Sun family recovered from the blow of the Yin family's return to favor, there was another concubine in the backyard of the Anguo Mansion who was younger and more beautiful than the Yin family-Aunt Guo.

On the third day after Pei Zhen's visit, Wang took the initiative and invited a few acquaintances to set up more than a dozen tables of wine, and a small sedan chair welcomed Guo into the door.

Guo's is not only young and beautiful, but also has a good background, and is very fond of An Guogong, since she entered the door, An Guogong almost stayed in her yard every night, and Yin's good life did not take long before he fell out of favor again. Instead, Mo and Sun were gloating behind them. People are so strange, even jealousy has to be divided into three, six, nine and so on, the same is favored, Sun and Mo are only jealous of the widow who remarried Yin, but they are indifferent to Guo's special favor. Just because Guo's background is much higher than theirs, the different heights they stand on are naturally incomparable, so they will not be jealous. On the other hand, they thought they were much stronger than the Yin family, who was born as a commoner and a widow, but they were pressed by the Yin family, so they couldn't get used to the Yin family everywhere.

This is human nature and is unavoidable. An Guogong's backyard is like this, and Yang Yan's harem is like this.

What is the most important thing for the emperor to do when he ascends the throne?

For an emperor with a queen, these may be the most important things, but for an emperor who has no owner in the harem or even a decent concubine, it is the most important thing to choose a concubine after the election, no matter how disdainful Yang Yan is about this, but in the eyes of civil and military officials, especially a high-ranking and powerful minister, the harem has no queen of the world, and the country has no heir, these two things add up to a major event that is enough to shake the country.

Under the urging of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, Yang Yan, who had a "dead wife", had to start enriching the harem after ascending the throne. In all dynasties, in addition to serving the king, the harem is also the epitome of the power of the court. Yang Yan naturally didn't want to be a faint monarch, at least he couldn't be a faint monarch until Situ Ningbing died.

Whether it was to win over the courtiers or stabilize the hearts of the people, Yang Yan had to elect queens and concubines among the major families. Yang Yan realized a rare hindsight, when he was a prince, his wives and concubines were all gifts, but now that he is the emperor, he still can't be the master in marriage.

Fortunately, Yang Yan doesn't attach importance to the word marriage, in his eyes, there is no difference between wives and concubines and courtiers' subordinates, it is nothing more than controlling, calling, using, and co-opting, and he is very handy in doing such things, so although he disdains it in his heart, there is not much resistance. After the imperial history asked him to choose a concubine as soon as possible and filled the harem, Yang Yan considered the selection of the ladies sent by each family in his heart, weighed the situation in the court, and finally the queen's phoenix crown fell on the granddaughter of Hou Dugushun in Wucheng County, and canonized Zhao Guogong's granddaughter Yang as a concubine, Chu Guogong's niece Zheng as a concubine, Yan Guogong's granddaughter Lu as a concubine, Feng Yijun Gong Pei Ding's daughter as a virtuous concubine, Zuo Jinwu general Situ Tong's daughter as Jieyu, and a number of low-level concubines, all of whom were from good backgrounds.

The Mo family and the Sun family are just slaves and maids, and they are loyal and duty-oriented, and they will still be jealous of Aunt Yin, who is "not as good as themselves", Yang Yan's four concubines are all from a first-class Gaomen clan, and they are all daughters of the concubines, no matter which one is no worse than the queen Dugu Ruyi, and now if Li Shuning is sitting in the back seat, the four concubines may still feel wronged, not to mention that although they were born in the Dugu clan, their family background is far less than their Dugu Ruyi? These women have received a good education since childhood, not only are they knowledgeable, but more importantly, they are all well versed in the way of survival and struggle in the inner house, and they are all the material of the housewife, and their hearts are naturally not comparable to ordinary women. If Dugu Ruyi's rear position wants to sit firmly, he must first suppress these four women.

But she couldn't hold it down, not to mention one to four or one, she won or lost between five and five. Dugu Ruyi knows better than anyone else, although she is now a queen, she has no special favor, no heirs, her mother's family says that it is very expensive, but it can be carefully scrutinized, the real honor is the entire Dugu family, not her mother's family, this alone in front of the four concubines She lost her confidence first. Before entering the palace, her grandfather told her that the reason why the phoenix crown fell on her head was nothing more than that His Majesty was like wooing courtiers and unwilling to become a big relative, so she chose her family background to say that she was not high or low, but she was qualified to be the queen, as a target erected by His Majesty, she was only afraid that her life in the harem would be difficult in the future, and she must be cautious everywhere and not let people catch the handle!

Therefore, Dugu Ruyi, the queen, is very aggrieved compared to the three queens who also had the same surname Dugu before her. A few days after Dugu Ruyi entered the palace, her father was promoted to supervise the imperial history, and Duguwen, who was appointed as a loyal general, sent troops to fight against the demon concubine Duguxiu. The funny thing is that Yang Yan only gave Duguwen the fictitious title of a general, except for a cousin who supervised the imperial history with the army, he never allocated it to a single soldier. The meaning couldn't be more obvious, he has to be responsible for cleaning up the mess made by his younger brothers and sisters, otherwise he will die! Not to let him die, but to let the entire Dugu clan be buried for Duguxiu and Duguwu's stupid choice!

There are only two ways in front of Dugu Wen, either to take Luoyang and completely solve the threat of Duguxiu and Duguwu to the imperial court, or to fight against Duguwu together, and then give Yang Yan a justifiable reason to swing a knife at the Dugu clan, and become the sinner of the Dugu clan through the ages!

The moment Duguwen received the holy decree, he didn't hesitate to choose the first one at all. As the saying goes, "knowing the son is better than the father", the father and son are replaced by brothers or brothers and sisters, what kind of goods are Duguwu and Duguxiu, Duguwen knows too well, it is okay to say that these two people get together to do bad things and harm people, but expect them to overthrow the court and seize the throne? Don't look at the group of people in Luoyang who have gathered nearly 200,000 troops, talking about the banner of avenging the first emperor and respecting the mandate of heaven and setting up the lord, in fact, these people have their own thoughts, and none of them really take the child in Duguxiu's womb as the lord, and the whole thing is a plate of scattered sand. Others Duguwen didn't dare to guarantee it, but his younger brother ...... This little rabbit cub is aiming to bully orphans and widows and set himself up as emperor, if he really has this ability, even if he becomes a sinner who exterminates the clan through the ages, why not? The problem is, Dugu Wu is not that material at all, for his own daydream, he took the life of the whole clan? No matter how painful and reluctant Dugu Wen is, in the face of the lives of the whole clan, he can only choose to kill his brother with his flesh and blood, and there is no third way to go!
