Chapter 69: A Generation of "Faint Monarchs"
Chu Ziyan hadn't heard the third sister's voice, but here, and the one who called herself the second sister, should be the third sister Chu Zixuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Third sister?"
Another voice came from the house: "The second sister is so good that she is outside, why is she staying at the door and not coming in?"
Zhou Shaoning and Chu Ziyan glanced at each other, they both felt a little weird, because this voice was really not like the voice of a patient, especially the voice of a little girl who was less than seven years old who had just been frightened.
What should they do, should they enter, or should they ......
In Mrs. Gu's house, Mrs. Gu was kneeling in the study, and at the table in the study sat a man in his fifties, well-maintained, and richly dressed.
The man looked at Mrs. Gu on the ground and the person who came to report the matter next to him, and said, "You mean, my nephew and nephew and daughter-in-law have already met that girl?"
"Yes, the old lady of the Marquis of Anguo wanted to stop it, but she didn't stop it. ”
"Oh?" the man laughed and said to himself, "Interesting." ”
When Mrs. Gu heard this, she just felt that the clothes on her body were a little wet again. People outside said that this person was lucky to be able to ascend the throne, and he survived his brothers, and then the first king really had no choice, so he chose him as the emperor.
Now he is even more mediocre and incompetent, so he has no choice but to be beautiful, the government is in a mess, and the ministers have begun to stand in line to support different princes.
For example, Ye Rongxuan, the fifth prince who married Shen Qiutong, won the support of Shen Lin, the Marquis of Zhuguo.
And the emperor's eldest son, Ye Jinyu, was born to the Empress Pei, and before the Empress Yuan died, he gave him his current wife Pei, so of course the Pei family would support him.
As for the second prince Ye Hongtao, who was born by Xue Guifei, the Xue family of the Jiangnan Wang clan will definitely support him.
As for the third son of the emperor, Ye Yueze, and the fourth son of the emperor were both from the unknown Concubine Liu Hui, and the Liu family had no one to be an official in the imperial court, so naturally they could not get much support. Therefore, these two princes are the most inconspicuous on weekdays.
As for the sixth prince Ye Xuyao, he is nineteen years old this year, although he and the emperor's eldest son Ye Jinyu were both born to the Empress Yuan, but his body and bones are too weak, and the imperial doctor concluded that he will not live to be twenty-five years old. Just ask, who else would dare to put the treasure on him with such a person.
The rest of the princes are still too young and have uncertain temperaments, so everyone is still waiting.
"Taifu, you said that my nephew and nephew and daughter-in-law, when I saw the girl of the Chu family, would I intercede for her?"
"This ......" A thin layer of sweat appeared on Mrs. Gu's head, and he didn't know how to answer this question in his heart. Hurriedly kowtowed: "Weichen is stupid, I don't know." ”
"Taifu, among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, if you want to be smart and good at speculating on the king's heart, if you say that you are the second, no one dares to call it the first. That's why I have to discuss with you first if I have something important. ”
The man behind the desk, standing up, with his hands behind his back, began to pace in the study.
Gu Taifu felt that if he hadn't been by his side since he was young, he wouldn't have felt how terrible this person was. Those courtiers, do you really think that this person is mediocre and incompetent, and only greedy for beauty?
Six key positions, which one is not his henchman. The DPRK and China could not approve major and minor matters without his approval. There are also several surrounding countries, coveting Dafeng for not a day or two, but after he came to power, the number of wars became less and less, and the countries that rushed to provoke did not fall into the favor.
There are also vassal kings from all over the world, who don't stay in the territory honestly. The four seas surrendered, and the Haiyan River was clear, so that's it. As for the people on this throne, what they like, beauty, or what, as long as it's not too much, there should be nothing.
What's more, the person on this throne still deliberately showed such a look, in front of the courtiers.
I didn't understand why he did it, but now it seems that it was really necessary.
"Over the years, I have let some people go, I want to see if they are loyal to Dafeng, or only care about their own family to get some small profits, or their own ambitions.
What I didn't expect was that I was really caught by some daring ones. ”
"Your Majesty, the old minister ......"
"It's not about you," Emperor Ye Chengrui turned around, narrowed his eyes, took a small object from the Duobao Pavilion, and played with it in his hand.
"This is the first time I've rewarded you, so well protected?"
"Yes. ”
"This paperweight was given to me by my grandfather when he was dying. ”
Mrs. Gu didn't understand what this person was going to do when he said this. Perhaps he had never seen the true face of this Son of Heaven, and he had never guessed through him.
Ye Chengrui put the paperweight back again, and just said: "The national teacher said that the three girls in the Chu family's big house will bring a disaster to Dafeng. What do you think of that?"
"Old minister...... Old minister......"
"Oh, I forgot. The lady of the big house is your daughter, and the three girls are also your granddaughters. How's that okay?"
"If it affects ......"
Ye Chengrui raised his hand and said, "I know what you are going to say, the national teacher has said twice so far, and it has been fulfilled." This is the third one he predicted, so let's take it seriously.
Therefore, if I have any action against the Chu family in the future, you should not be too surprised. ”
After speaking, Ye Chengrui put the unicorn-shaped paperweight back in its place, turned around and left, leaving nothing behind.
After a long time, Mrs. Gu got up tremblingly with the support of his subordinates.
"Master, Your Majesty's mind is getting harder and harder......" pondered, and these two words were stopped before they could be spoken.
Although Mrs. Gu is very gentle on weekdays, if he can do the job of a first-class master, it is not something that ordinary people can do.
"Starting tomorrow, I will call myself sick to the outside world, and the old man will recuperate at home. ”
"Yes. ”
Ye Chengrui came out of the Taifu Mansion and got into the carriage, and heard someone report: "Your Majesty, there is news from the Chu family." ”
"Oh, what's the news?"
"The third lady of the Chu family has woken up now, and she has been locked up in the ancestral hall by the old lady of the family. ”
"It seems that the Chu family has also expressed their attitude, set up a shelf and go to Zhanghua Palace, I am going to see Concubine Chu tonight. ”
"Yes. ”
Looking at the beautiful woman sitting next to him, Ye Chengrui frowned a little worriedly, and said, "Now there is no one, you don't have to pretend, I am very unappetizing." ”
The palace beauties who were still smiling immediately stiffened, and then changed to a more fake smile, and said: "Didn't Your Majesty always like the appearance of the concubine before? ”
"Pretend, you just, keep pretending. Ye Chengrui said: "Who would have thought that the dignified national teacher would hide in my harem, and he would not be disgusted with the smoke in the fat powder pile." ”
