Chapter 169: Opening the Seal
Qing Lan secretly thought that the emperor was too impatient in this step. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Batch after batch of corrupt officials and corrupt officials have been pulled at the entrance of the vegetable market, and for a month in a row, the beheading platform has not been done!
This caused another tilt in the court, and the big families all leaned on King Su's side.
Although Duanwang is the better tree, the family is in Qiongzhou, and they can't rely on it if they want to~
So the front of King Su's Mansion was bustling again after the emperor ascended the throne for more than a year, and it was not enough to even tie the horse!
The Lu family took advantage of King Su's efforts to test the children's knowledge in the school, "They just want to use you as a peg to talk to the emperor." β
King Su didn't pay attention to the Lu family for a whole month.
The Lu family is angry, what kind of temperament does the family have, how can she, the eldest daughter who grew up in a wealthy family, not know? ! They all seem to be upright gentlemen, but their bones are rotten, and their stomachs are full of pus!
But King Su didn't listen, didn't see, didn't speak, and the Lu family couldn't make any moves.
Pei Guifei pinched the opportunity and began to frequently recruit the Lu family into the palace.
Zhu Yuanrong hugged Jin Ge'er (Zhu Yuanjin's youngest son) to play on the couch, and said to his sister: "Let them go, a nest of snakes and rats." β
Zhu Yuanjin ate the fruit and began to talk to her sister about Shu Qinglan who was far away in Qiongzhou, "If I wasn't pregnant, I would have been in Qiongzhou by now!" β
Zhu Yuanrong glanced at his sister's lower abdomen, "When does the Lin family plan to give birth to you?" "This is the fifth child!
Zhu Yuanjin swallowed the flesh in his mouth unhurriedly, "That's it." "She and Lin Yinfei both gave birth to five sons, five! That's enough for everything.
Zhu Yuanrong looked at his sister's bulging lower abdomen again, and half-coaxed and half-comforted her, "I think your baby looks like a girl." β
Zhu Yuanjin pursed her mouth, "I don't want to, I don't expect it~!" "The more you live, the more certain you are that the curse of the Lin family is true, and you have given birth to five sons in a row, this chance...
Besides, "My mother-in-law, my mother-in-law, and my ancestors, there have never been girls in four generations, and there have been no girls in the next ten or eight generations. β
Zhu Yuanrong said in his heart, you are so blessed that others can't envy you, if you don't have a girl, you don't have a girl. If this person is too perfect, God should come out and trouble you.
The two sisters were talking, when they heard the palace people report that the grandmother next to the eldest princess was coming.
"Call her in." This grandmother will come to Kunning Palace every day to report on the eldest princess's daily life and diet, but today... It's a little early.
"Queen Mother," Mama crouched on the ground, enduring the fear in her heart, "Celestial Princess... Sick. β
Zhu Yuanrong frowned, "What's the matter, you tell me in detail." β
"Today... The Queen Mother (on a whim) asked the eldest princess to accompany her old man to visit the garden, and when the eldest princess returned... It was a fever. β
Old pious woman!
Zhu Yuanrong's expression did not change, but the bulging green tendons on the back of her hand still revealed her actual emotions.
"Have you seen it with a female doctor?"
"Yes," there was a noticeable tremor in Mama's voice, "The female doctor said, said..."
"You slave doesn't know anything!" Yuan Jin was angry, "I can't understand anything back!" β
"The queen mother's life..."Mama collapsed on the ground, kowtowing incessantly, not to mention what disease the eldest princess Li Yuanxin had.
"Smack!"
Zhu Yuanrong got up and walked out quickly, anxious and angry, these damn minions!
"Queen Mother, please stay!" Qing Glaze knelt down in front of Zhu Yuanrong, something was wrong, she had to stop! Qing Glaze turned to the grandmother and said solemnly: "What's wrong with the princess?" β
Zhu Yuanrong paused, and Zhu Yuanjin, who followed closely, also stopped.
"Princess... Princess..."The grandmother trembled like chaff, and saw that she really couldn't lead people over, so she had to tell the truth. "Back to the queen's mother, the female doctor said... Said that the princess was infected with smallpox! β
Zhu Yuanrong suddenly fell to a stumble, and Yuan Jin behind him helped him to stand firmly. Smallpox? Smallpox!?!
Qing Glaze suddenly raised her voice and asked sharply, "When did the princess get hot!?" Which female doctor did you find!? β
The mother's sweat kept dripping, "Slave... Slave maid..."
Qing Glaze seemed to suddenly remember something, and instructed the people of the left and right palaces: "Quick!" Tie her up and put her in the hug! β
Several chamberlains immediately stepped forward, and the grandmother did not resist, as if those words just now had drained all her strength.
Qing Glaze continued to instruct people to cook vinegar and burn Ai's smoked house, and said to Qi Fu, the head of Kunning Palace: "Manager Qi, you take someone to watch Qixia Hall (Li Yuanxin's residence), and no one is allowed to enter or leave!" β
Qi Fu glanced at Zhu Yuanrong, "The Sixth Prince..."
"It's okay, the sixth prince is at the emperor's place at this time, how about you go to the eldest princess first. There is one in the Tai Hospital, and all of them are called to the palace to wait in the Qixia Palace! "Don't blame Zhu Yuanrong for not going to see his daughter, smallpox is too powerful, if he can't help but look at it now, then there will never be Zhu Yuanrong in this palace anymore.
"Sister..."Zhu Yuanjin looked at her sister worriedly, the most noble woman in Dashun, who instantly seemed to be ten years old.
"It's her, it must be her!" The green tendons that jumped up at the corners of Zhu Yuanrong's forehead were already purple, "I endured it again and again for the sake of Xin'er and Yu'er, but I didn't expect... She wants my place and rushes to me! Poisonous woman! Poisonous woman!! β

When the news reached Li Desheng's Qinzheng Palace, the six princes had just written a big character. As soon as the young man heard that his sister was sick, his mouth tightened.
"Bastard!"
Li Desheng is so angry, the Pei family brother and sister know how to block themselves! !
"Father..."Li Fanyu's fists clenched tightly, "The eldest sister is sick, can Yu'er go to see her?" β
Li Desheng swallowed the sweetness that welled up in his throat, "Not for the time being, isn't Yu'er here to accompany his father?" β
Li Fanyu pouted with a bun face, "Yu'er will only go and come back after a while..."
"Your Majesty," the chief of the guard on duty knelt down on one knee, "the Queen Mother wants to see the Emperor." β
Alas~, here it is again.
Li Desheng pinched his eyebrows, can't the old lady stop for a day?!!
Since Jiang Guifei was promoted to the queen mother, this temper and ability to find fault have been upgraded with age, and there is a tendency to enjoy it.
Which woman in the harem is a fuel-efficient lamp, and I am not too tired to see you coming and going!
As long as it does not involve the emperor's heirs and does not lose the royal face, Zhu Yuanrong has always adhered to a principle: let her go~
If it involves his own interests, Zhu Yuanrong is not merciful, unites a large group, strikes a small handful, and the first evil must be dealt with, and he never asks questions.
And as long as there are disagreements or contradictions in the harem, Li Desheng has always been on Zhu Yuanrong's side, and the revolutionary friendship between husband and wife was gradually established on the road to becoming an emperor.
As for his own mother-in-law, Li Desheng said: As long as she doesn't make trouble for me, I will be very satisfied.
There are no rising stars in the Jiang family, and the queen mother is not close to her sons and nephews. That's fine, Li Desheng silently remembered a credit to his mother in his heart.
"Well, I know, I'll be over later." After sending the queen mother, Li Desheng touched the top of his son's soft hair and said softly: "Yu'er, don't worry, my father will definitely cure your eldest sister." β
Li Fanyu nodded obediently, and never mentioned topics such as visiting the sick again.
Zhu Yuanrong pinched the time to come to the Qinzheng Palace, and the queen mother's people were behind the feet, but both sides cleverly avoided each other.
-- This is the tacit understanding that has been cultivated between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law over the years, as long as Jiang Guifei and the current Queen Mother do something wrong or ask Zhu Yuanrong for something, they will show weakness in this way.
Zhu Yuanrong snorted coldly in his heart, his mother-in-law relied on her life, and she had a good husband and gave birth to two good sons, otherwise with her IQ and means, it would not be too much to die one or two hundred times in the harem!
Li Desheng saw Zhu Yuanrong's eyes dodging a little, but it was Li Fanyu who immediately pounced when he saw his mother.
"Queen Mother~!"
Zhu Yuanrong, who was called by the queen mother, was astringent, she held her son and gave Li Desheng a blessing.
"The queen doesn't have to be polite." Li Desheng suddenly sighed at his great-grandfather's wisdom, if there was only one woman in the palace, wouldn't there be so much trouble!
(Not necessarily, you forgot, there is still your mother in the palace!) οΌ

Qin San happened to be off duty on this day, and they took turns to take a nap in the hospital, so he only found out about the eldest princess being infected with smallpox the next day.
Qin San didn't dare to delay, so he asked Ming Ran to go to Zhu Yuanjin, saying that he had a way to cure smallpox, and asked the queen if she was willing to give it a try.
As for why he didn't find the leader of his own hospital or the emperor, Qin San said: His own people are still secondary, he has old and young, and he doesn't dare to get involved in the affairs of the harem.
It was customary for the eldest princess to move to the palace for medical treatment. Lin Yinfei arranged people in a quiet small mansion and invited Qin San to treat the disease.
"You mean... Did Qinglan come up with this method? "Zhu Yuanjin is sick because of his niece, and he doesn't even care about being pregnant, so he has to sit here every day and see it with his own eyes to rest assured.
Of course, Lin Yinfei didn't worry about her, and he had to accompany her every day.
"Yes," Qin San injected the liquid from the glass tube into the eldest princess's body, "Xizhi also proposed a way to prevent this disease......
In private, Qin San preferred to call Qing Lan Xizhi, which was also to commemorate the combat friendship that their gang had cultivated in Shanhaiguan.
Zhu Yuanjin was overjoyed, "Have you tried it with someone?" β
A hint of unnaturalness appeared on Qin San's face, "A few of my children... I've tried them all. β
Immediately, Zhu Yuanjin looked at Lin Yinfei with blazing eyes.
Lin Yinfei pondered for a long time, and finally relented: "I'll discuss it with my father first." "If children can resist smallpox... Lin Yinfei was actually very excited.
As soon as the eldest princess left, Zhu Yuanrong also began to clean up the harem, and for a while, the palace was bloody and bloody, and the Punishment Division was overcrowded. Pei and Chen's two concubines have broken a lot of people, Chen Guifei angrily scolded Zhu Pei and the two in her heart, and since then, the two closest "good sisters" in the palace have also parted ways and started a life-and-death contest.
The emperor and the queen have opened in the harem of the former dynasty, and Qinglan has also heard about it a little, but she is not very concerned, because she has also encountered a lot of trouble in front of her.
That is - revenge from pirates.
It is said that after Qinglan came to Qiongzhou, most of the time was spent building houses and roads, no way, the wooden buildings were too unstrong, there were few people in Qiongzhou, and if they didn't build some strong houses, people would be blown away by the typhoon!
When the two of them came, they brought 1,500 people, of which 1,000 were private soldiers from Duanwangfu, and most of the rest were technicians, such as shipbuilding, bridge building, farming, masons, etc., and there were no more than 100 servants, half of whom were Qinglan's private soldiers.
Here, Qinglan was busy building houses, paving roads, polders, and picking rubber, and over there, Thirteen was thinking about shipbuilding and sailors, and secretly had ten of the latest guns with Zhu Yuanfang, just waiting to return to the sea to show his might!
To tell the truth, there are not many pirates near Qiongzhou, and in these years, who dares to be pirates without a little family background, they will be destroyed in minutes. So Thirteen didn't see a single pirate for half a year.
Thereupon... He started the idea of Ryukyu Island (Taiwan) as an old man.
This is Dashun's territory, the Dutch made a deal with Zhu Qi to occupy Ryukyu Island, but Zhu Qi does not represent the Dashun government, so Thirteen feels that it is necessary to snatch Ryukyu back at this time!
Thirteen excitedly discussed with his daughter-in-law about playing Ryukyu, but was ruthlessly hit by Qinglan, "How far is it from Qiongzhou to Ryukyu, even if the emperor wants to take back Ryukyu, he will send troops from Fujian, right?" β
Thirteen was not discouraged, "I and the Fujian Sailor should cooperate with each other, and we will fight at both ends!" β
"Okay," Qinglan said dryly, "Then wait until your Qiongzhou can be launched... Let's talk about it~"
Thirteen suddenly leaked, how could the warship be said to be built, besides, the artillery of the Qiongzhou has not yet arrived, what to fight with others?
It took two days, and just when Hariran thought that Thirteen had temporarily given up the idea of playing the Ryukyus, the pirates sent it to the door!
Strictly speaking, they are not pirates, they are the third and fourth generations of the sea, the descendants of pirates. Their ancestors took advantage of the civil strife in the previous dynasty to go to sea to become pirates, and now seeing that Dashun has become rich and strong, they have come back to join Cheng.
Thirteen rushed to meet them, but... Take advantage of the excitement and go home.
"A bunch of scumbags who are waiting to die!" Thirteen was very angry, and said that it was good to be bloody!
Belch... How does it sound less like Toucheng, more like... Begging...
"There are a lot of problems with the ability! I'm afraid that things will cause trouble, so if I can't calm down, I will hide back, and my lord will panic for their ancestors! β
Wait, Qinglan grabbed a key word, "What do you mean to cause trouble?" β
Thirteen said angrily: "They robbed Princess Annan, and they can't get along at sea, so they can only come back to avoid trouble!" β
So, Princess Annan's fiancΓ©, Horseshoe Crab, led a group of Annan royal servants dressed in pirate shells, under the banner of revenge... Came to Qiongzhou to rob...
Qinglan looked at the flames of war burning under the night sky, spreading in the port that had just been built, and especially wanted to shout:
Immortal Plate !!
