Chapter 29: Yang Yuhuan's Concubine Has No Hatred (14)
After Yang Zhao, that is, Yang Guozhong retreated, Emperor Ming turned his head and asked Yuhuan: "Why don't you let me give your cousin a high official position? You don't need to be so cautious." ”
Emperor Ming also thought that Yuhuan was afraid of being discussed, so he was reluctant to ask the Yang family to be a high-ranking official.
"The concubine is not cautious, the concubine just doesn't want to cause you any trouble because of the concubine. My cousin and we haven't moved around since we were children, and I only recently came to Beijing to recognize my relatives, what kind of character he is, and the concubines don't know yet. If His Majesty was reused to him because of his concubines, if he did something bad, wouldn't it be a slap in the face for His Majesty and his concubines?
Besides, businessmen all value profit over courtesy, and the cousin of the concubine has been in business for many years, so it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be infected with this habit. Therefore, His Majesty still looks at him closely, and if he has to use it, he will use it, and if he can't use it, don't be polite.
Although he did have some talents, and his concubines were willing to help his relatives, His Majesty still investigated many ways and then decided whether it was better to reuse him. ”
"Don't you want your family to be high-ranking and generous, so as to give you strength?" Emperor Ming felt that Yuhuan was really different from other women. Generally, when a woman is favored, she will try her best to benefit her mother's family, and her mother's status in the court is high, and she can also consolidate her position in the harem. But Yuhuan never seemed to think about this. She took the initiative to put it forward, and she always found various reasons to refuse.
"With His Majesty here, what do the concubines want, and what do they need to be strong?" Yuhuan smiled playfully, and Qiushui cut his eyes to Emperor Ming.
Emperor Ming had never heard Yuhuan say such a white love story, and his heart was warm, as if he was intoxicated in the spring of March. At the moment, he said stupidly: "Yuhuan, I have you, it's really like a treasure!"
"Your Majesty, how many times have you said this, aren't you annoyed?" Yuhuan deliberately pursed his lips, but he was actually very comfortable.
"No, I don't think so. I also composed a 'Debao Song' for you!" Emperor Ming took the jade-like little hand and held it tightly in the palm of his hand, "Let's go with me and have a look!"
Yuhuan followed Emperor Ming to the pear orchard.
On the side of the winding corridor covered by Tang pears, a group of people are dancing and singing in various simple and cute looks.
"Debao Hong Farm, Hong Nong Debaoye. The boats and cars in the pond are noisy, and there are many bronzes in Yangzhou. San Lang sat in the hall and watched and sang the 'Debao Song'. ”
The drums beat in unison, and the joy was incomparable.
"How about it? This is the "Treasure Son" that I made especially for you!" Emperor Ming introduced Yuhuan as if offering a treasure, "Do you like it?"
"陛xià......"
"Call me San Lang! In the future, you will call me Your Majesty in front of outsiders, and when there are no outsiders, you must call me San Lang, huh?" Emperor Ming said in a half-commanding tone. Because he is the third son of Tang Ruizong Li Dan, his parents and siblings call him so.
"The concubine doesn't dare!"
"What don't you dare!Yuhuan, aside from this imperial identity, you are my wife, the person who lives and dies with the same cave, I like you to call me 'San Lang'!" Emperor Ming's burning gaze stared at Yuhuan fixedly.
"Three...... San Lang!" Yuhuan was so ashamed that the red glow flew all over his cheeks, and he stammered under the compelling gaze of Emperor Ming.
"Well! That's it. Emperor Ming nodded with satisfaction, gently hugged the jade ring to his chest, and asked, "Yuhuan, you followed me, do you regret it?"
"En?" Yuhuan didn't expect Emperor Ming to suddenly ask this, and wanted to raise his head, but was pressed to his chest by Emperor Ming.
"Do you regret it? ”
Yuhuan could clearly feel Emperor Ming's nervousness, so he rested his head firmly on Emperor Ming's chest.
"No regrets. Although the life of the harem is not as glamorous as others see, and there is a lot of criticism, His Majesty has given me all the love you can give. You are a great husband who stands up to the sky, not only for the people of the world, but also for the concubines to build a safe world. The concubine was content. ”
"Really, you don't blame me for ...... in the first place."
"You didn't force anyone. It's just their own choice. The concubine didn't want to think about the past. Yuhuan raised his head and looked at Emperor Ming's eyes with clear water.
"If you feel uneasy about what happened at the beginning, return this guilt to the people of the world! Like His Majesty Taizong in the past, let the Tang River Qinghai Yan, the world be rich, all the countries will be subdued, and be the greatest emperor! Let all the people be graced by the king. In this way, no one will remember your flaws, and your concubines will be able to live with you for eternity!"
Emperor Ming's heart was shocked, and he stared at Yuhuan tightly, "This, is this your wish?"
"This is the concubine's wish!" Yuhuan replied categorically.
"Okay! I promise you! I will make the Tang Dynasty forever, and I will let you live together with me for a hundred years!"
Emperor Ming stared at Yuhuan's ice-pure eyes and solemnly promised.
He always thought that Yuhuan was resentful of him in his heart, and he was careful not to touch the original thing, although he didn't give Mao'er a choice at the beginning, but Yuhuan was the most wronged in this matter. She is the interpreter flower in her own life and a treasure gifted by God, but the better she is, the more guilty she feels, because she has made her bear an indelible stain.
So he spoiled her as much as he could, and tried to think about her as much as he could, hoping to make up for it. However, what he didn't expect was that Yuhuan really didn't blame herself! She saw everything very clearly, didn't complain about anyone, and always had the greatest kindness to the world.
Taizong is his great-grandfather, and the change of Xuanwumen at the beginning is a lingering stain on his life. But even so, no one can deny his wisdom and greatness, and all the people and descendants of the royal family are proud to have such kings and ancestors.
In Yuhuan's heart, she doesn't care about her own rewards, she doesn't care about the gifts her family receives, she actually wants to let herself follow her great-grandfather and become a ruler who benefits the world, never hide her flaws, and then live with herself for a hundred years!
Yuhuan's heart is so broad!
Worthy of being her own woman!
Only such a woman is qualified to compete with herself in the world.
If she expected so much from herself, how could she let her down?
At this moment, Emperor Ming thought of his grandfather, Emperor Gaozong. He is the only son of heaven in history who has named his own empress and himself as the "emperor" and "queen of heaven". Presumably, he also loved Emperor Wu's grandmother very much, so he was willing to let her go to the court side by side with him and rule the world together!
How fortunate Li Tang's emperor is, he can always meet these strange women who can stand side by side with him, so that his imperial career is no longer lonely!
Emperor Ming caressed Yuhuan's face, his fingers touched the rouge mole under her ear, and there was another palpitation. He cupped the pink cheek in his arms and kissed it deeply.
In the pear blossom bush, the petals are flying, surrounding a pair of beautiful people.
Yang Guozhong has been diligent and loyal to the deacon since he became a member of the household department. The staff of the household department is actually a miscellaneous worker, responsible for running errands, collecting money, settling accounts, and sending money, but he is not qualified to "spend money". Yang Guozhong has a very high emotional intelligence, and he usually rushes to work, without the shelf of the emperor's relatives and relatives, and soon mingles with his colleagues.
Yang Guozhong really loves to do things in the household department.
Li Yan, the household servant, originally saw that he was a relative of the concubine, and originally thought about whether to give him preferential treatment and let him do some errand work, but Gao Lishi's father-in-law handed over a message, asking him what to do. He put the thought to rest.
But Yang Guozhong seems to really have some talents, when there is something to do, he rushes to run errands, and when he has nothing to do, he takes the account book of the household department over the years to bury his head in research, and also makes detailed records, such as when he received how much money he received, where did he come from, compared with previous years, why more or why less, where did the annual expenditure go, which expenses were the big heads, which expenses were small heads, and what changes were made in the various expenditures over the years......
Yang Guozhong's drive makes people unable to find fault if they want to. Even if he was back then, he was doing a little bit to learn a little, how could there be such a person who rushed into it as soon as he got started and wanted to finish the business at once?
It didn't take long for Yang Guozhong to become a close confidant of Li Yan, the head of the household department, and he loved to take him with him wherever he went.
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yuhuan called several cousins of the Yang family, the eldest sister, the third sister, and the eighth sister in the capital, as well as the three brothers-in-law, into the palace two days in advance to hold a small family banquet, and also called Yang Guozhong. In this small family banquet, Yuhuan mainly told them to abide by their duties and not act recklessly, lest they be as arrogant and domineering as in their previous lives, arouse the anger of the officials and the people, and invite death. So only the Yang family was there, and Emperor Ming did not participate.
Yuhuan's cousins are quite stable, and the three sisters' temperament is about to jump out of the way.
The eldest sister is more than ten years older than her, the eighth sister is seven or eight years older than her, and the three sisters are all in their thirties. The three brothers-in-law are also good husbands and love their wives very much. Even if there is a concubine, she leaves all the family affairs to her wife with peace of mind, and never interferes in the affairs of the inner house. So Yuhuan's sisters are very happy.
For women, happiness is the best skin care product. The three sisters have a good family background, so there is nothing troublesome. Although they are a little older, they are all flowers.
In his previous life, Emperor Ming admired them very much and rewarded the Yang family, and the rewards for these three sisters were particularly heavy. Because Yuhuan lost her mother at a young age, she was fostered in her uncle's house, and these three sisters took care of her to grow up, and there was a bit of "eldest sister like mother" affection, coupled with this appreciation, the Ming Emperor named the three of them as Mrs. Han, Mrs. Qiu Guo and Mrs. Qin, and gave them the right to enter and leave the harem at will, and gave them a lot of fat powder money.
In the Tang Dynasty, only the mother and wife of the civil and military attaché and the duke of the state could be named "Mrs. Guo", and the mother and wife of officials above the third rank could be named "Mrs. County". The lady of the country adds the name of the country, and it is more noble. Among the royal relatives, only the eldest princess is the first grade, and the average princess is also the second grade. The Yang family is also a medium-class family, and in addition to a noble concubine who is favored by the king, there are three more national ladies with national names at once, which are not far behind the prince of the kingdom. In addition to the eldest princess and the crown prince, the prince, and the prince, according to the requirements of etiquette, even the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves and the prince and grandson of the noble Tianhuang had to take the initiative to greet them when they saw them.
This can make people inside and outside the government and the opposition red-eyed. It also planted the root of the future bane.
