088 Western Vietnam and Qin
Only then did Murong Yixiao clear his eyes and look at Chu Zhao gently, Chu Zhao turned around, "Don't look at me with such eyes, let me feel that you are pitying me, I don't need your charity." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Murong Yixiao lowered her eyebrows and stopped looking at him, for a while, I don't know when he had quietly left, Murong Yixiao secretly thought alone, in the future, I am afraid that there will be many more pairs of eyes staring at her in this harem, and her planning will be more difficult.
The next day, Chu Zhao's edict was sent to all palaces, and the Manchu Dynasty was shocked by the civil and military, and any decision of Chu Zhao, although it was convincing, was only this decision, which was related to Xinyao's future government and society, and the emperor's decision this time was too arbitrary.
The harem concubines all knew that the emperor had recently favored Concubine Xiao, but they didn't expect that the queen's candidate had not yet been decided, but the emperor chose to make the decree alone, and the queen was Murong Yixiao, everyone was not convinced, and there was nowhere to declare the complaints in their hearts, and they secretly scolded Murong Yixiao from head to toe several times.
The queen's phoenix crown was settled, and the palaces came to congratulate according to etiquette, and Concubine Hui and Rosewood were the first to congratulate, although there were many words to blame her and conceal the truth, but congratulations on the mood, it is indeed a sincere blessing.
And Qing Xiuyi and Chu Zhaoyi squeezed their eyebrows for a while, due to the lack of manpower in the main hall, Ah Xiang was transferred back to the hall to serve again, and her words and temperament became more and more calm and generous.
Although the post-closure ceremony has not been held, the date has been chosen, in the middle of this month, October 16, and it is Cheng Rushi and the Ministry of Rites who are in charge of the post-closure ceremony.
In time to catch up with the Daqing after the sealing, the envoys of Xiyue came to sue for peace, all countries knew that the last time Emperor Yao Xuan infiltrated Xiyue, he almost died in Xiyue, and all countries watched coldly, wishing that the prince of Xiyue would wipe out Chu Zhao in one fell swoop, who knew that he would pick up a big bargain, not to mention that he could survive, but he got five iron mines in Xiyue, and he got the blacksmith master Zhong Zheng for a year.
Who would have thought that not only would it not weaken Xinyao's national strength and disrupt Xinyao's government, but also let Chu Zhao pick up such a big bargain in vain, making Xinyao stronger and more prosperous among all countries.
Since Chu Zhao returned to the palace, all countries have avoided talking about it, and everyone speculated that if Chu Zhao sent troops to the west of Yue at this time, there were Di Dang in the north of West Vietnam, and there were floods and plagues in the south, even if the national strength was strong, it would be difficult to resist Chu Zhao's onslaught.
The prince of Xiyue, seeing this crisis, hurriedly sent his relatives to seek peace, waiting for recuperation.
In Xiyue, the envoys of Xiyue heard that Chu Zhao did not have a queen, but they did not expect that when Princess Anguo was sent, Xinyao was holding a ceremony after the sealing, and the envoys of Xiyue quickly reported the matter back to the prince, but it will take time to come and go, and now Princess Anguo lives in a post house and is in a dilemma, which is really anxious for Lin Shaoge, the envoy of Xiyue.
Chu Zhao was not in a hurry to summon him, just waited for them to ask for their own respect, and entertained them with delicious food and drink in the post house.
After more than ten days, as soon as the ceremony passed, the ministers of Xinyao Dynasty were all impressed by Chu Zhao's precautions, if Xiyue sent Princess Anguo at this time, it must be for the queen's position.
And Xinyao's queen has been decided, even if you send the princess of Anguo, you have to be a concubine, under the balance of the two candidates, according to the strength of the two countries of Xiyue and Shangdu, it is naturally better to control Shangdu, Chu Zhao took a wise move by surprise, which was unanimously agreed by the harem and the previous dynasty.
Thinking about it, only Murong Yixiao can take the back position, which not only appeases the resentment of the former queen of Shangdu, but also wins over the hearts of the subjects of Shangdu, so that Xiyue is now embattled and does not dare to come forward.
When Qian Zhongsu, the prince of Xiyue, heard this, he was immediately furious, but he didn't expect him Chu Zhao to have this trick, so he had to be locked up in the house for a few days, so that he finally came up with a countermeasure.
The envoys of the Western Yue took advantage of the fact that just after the ceremony, they asked for a request to face the saint.
Since becoming the queen, a lot of subordinates have been added to the Dongyu Palace, and Ye He has also been promoted to the aunt in charge, and she has led the queen's harem at a young age, which really makes the people below jealous.
The people who are still serving close are Ah Fei and Ah Xiang, who never care about the backyard of Dongyu Palace, and are only responsible for Murong Yixiao's diet and daily life, which is also specially instructed by Murong Yixiao.
Since the power of the queen fell into the hands of Murong Yixiao, the harem was removed by Murong Yixiao for the first time in the morning and dusk, and after that, if there is no special reason in the palace, all matters in the harem will be handed over to Concubine Hui to deal with on her behalf.
Murong Yixiao is either basking in the sun all day long, or reading and practicing calligraphy in the room, and his temperament is extremely quiet.
On this day, Murong Yixiao hid in the study to practice calligraphy, and Concubine Hui came to discuss Princess Anguo's entry into the palace.
Concubine Hui was wearing a honey-colored can-collared mopping skirt, and the two little palace maids behind her dragged their tail skirts and hurriedly walked into the main hall of Dongyu Palace.
Seeing that Murong Yixiao was swaying his pen and ink, he said: "The concubine knocks on the queen!" ”
Murong didn't raise his head, and continued to write the following words, "Concubine Hui is here today, is there anything to do?" ”
Concubine Hui hung her head, and now she was completely respectful and polite in the face of Murong Yixiao, and she didn't dare to slack off for a moment, "Back to the queen's mother, recently the envoys of Nanping sent the lord of Allure, Xiyi sent the Feihong Heavenly Maiden, and the princess Anguo sent by Xiyue earlier, the concubines don't know how to arrange it, and ask the queen to show it?" ”
When Murong Yixiao heard that the Three Kingdoms had sent a daughter of a close friend, he stopped for a long time, raised his eyebrows, looked at Concubine Hui, who had been blessed with courtesies, and asked, "What is the emperor going to do about this matter?" ”
"Back to the queen, this matter is a matter of the harem, and it should be placed by the queen, the emperor has recently met with the envoys of the three countries and is too busy to get out, the emperor means that this matter is fully handed over to the queen mother to arrange."
Concubine Hui was polite on her face, and her words did not mean the slightest slackness.
Murong Yixiao put down the pen in his hand and ordered someone to sit down with the tea, "This matter is according to Concubine Hui's wishes, how should it be arranged, so as not to lose the courtesy?" Since my sister handed over all the big and small things in the harem to my sister, my sister no longer asked, but there was one point, this matter must be according to the emperor's wishes, and my sister asked the emperor more. ”
Concubine Hui saw that Murong Yixiao retreated, and the two of them were talking in the palace, so she knew that she intended to mention something, so she asked: "Please tell the queen directly, Concubine Hui is stupid." ”
Murong Yixiao glanced at Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui's beautiful eyes looked at Murong Yixiao watery, waiting for her to understand more.
"Sister, do you know why Princess Anguo only entered the palace recently? She has been here for more than two months, but she still shirks the saint, does my sister know the reason? ”
Murong Yixiao asked softly.
Concubine Hui looked at Murong Yixiao thoughtfully, and asked, "Did the queen mother mean that you were suddenly promoted to the queen a few days ago?" ”
"It seems that my sister's heart is very bright, since my sister knows that Princess Anguo's identity is precious, she naturally must not be lazy, she originally came for the queen's position, but now she was suddenly intercepted by the emperor, if she is not given a high position, I am afraid that Xiyue and the heart of this Anguo princess will not be at peace at all times?"
Murong Yixiao said softly.
