Chapter 222: January

What did Emperor Yuanwu mean by this?

"Xiao Jiu is not too young, he must have a son. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Emperor Yuanwu said lightly, waved his hand and said, "Go down." ”

Chang Runzhi suddenly realized.

This means that if she gives birth to a daughter and refers to marriage, then she can't stop it anymore?

Chang Runzhi pursed his lips in his heart and didn't say anything more.

Anyway, it's still early for her to give birth, so she still has nearly half a year to think about it.

Chang Runzhi replied in a low voice, Liu Tong propped himself up to help her, Emperor Yuanwu couldn't see it, glared at him and snorted coldly: "Is it possible that there is no one to serve in the palace?" ”

Liu Tong didn't answer, and waited until Chang Runzhi got up before he said slowly: "Back to my father, my son-in-law just thinks that my daughter-in-law hurts me, but I don't need someone to do everything." ”

Emperor Yuanwu's face was pale: "I will be upset when I look at you, go down." ”

Liu Tong answered and helped Chang Runzhi back to his seat.

The temple people looked at Emperor Yuanwu's face and secretly gave the musicians a look.

And the temple was bustling again.

Chang Runzhi approached Liu Tong and whispered: "Today's birthday banquet for the concubine, how can you mention the draft on such an occasion?" ”

Isn't that adding to your own blockage?

Chang Runzhi muttered secretly, although Emperor Yuanwu has always "refused to come" to women, and the harem is also full of beauties, but there is one less person who can share the favor, why bother with the concubine Niangniang......

Liu Tong saw it clearly, and sneered: "Where is the idea of the concubine?" It is clear that the father himself wants to be drafted. The concubine is just 'listening to the string song and knowing the elegant meaning'. Or, it was her father who mentioned it to her, asking her to speak out on such an occasion and take the lead, and then it was easy to do it. ”

Chang Runzhi suddenly realized, and asked a little hesitantly: "That concubine Niangniang...... Isn't it sad? ”

Liu Tong paused and said, "It shouldn't be sad, after all, she is also looking at her father's harem, and she is getting more and more people day by day." ”

Also, when she reaches the status of the concubine, she no longer cares about men's love and favor.

Chang Runzhi thought as he looked at the concubine who was sitting at the head of the house.

The concubine Niangniang's face was gentle, she smiled and said a few words to Emperor Yuanwu from time to time, peeled the peel of the fruit on the table, and then fed it to Emperor Yuanwu to eat. Slender jade hands, ten fingers are green, and the smooth fingertips seem to be dancing.

Picture perfect.

But it is precisely because of this that Chang Runzhi feels a little disobedient.

There was not a trace of flaw on the concubine's face.

Chang Runzhi didn't believe that there was no trace of dissatisfaction in the concubine's heart, but she couldn't see it on her face at all.

Chang Runzhi shook his head secretly, and fiddled with the melons and fruits on the desk by himself.

After the palace banquet, Liu Tong and King Rui left the palace together.

Chang Muzhi pulled his sister-in-law into the carriage, looked at her for a while and said, "You are so bold, you actually choked with Your Majesty." ”

Chang Runzhi replied vaguely, and smiled flatteringly at Chang Muzhi.

"You." Chang Muzhi shook his head helplessly: "It's a shame that you have a shield." Chang Muzhi pointed to Chang Runzhi's belly: "If it weren't for the fact that you were pregnant, Your Majesty would probably be attacking you today." ”

"Your Majesty won't, in the end, he is the king of a country, how can he fall like that." Chang Runzhi smiled: "Big sister, don't worry about me." ”

"How can I not worry about you?" Chang Muzhi sighed: "Listen to Your Majesty's meaning, if you give birth to a daughter in this womb, then the concubine passing through the door will be an ironclad matter." ”

Chang Muzhi stretched out his hand and stroked her stomach: "Now I can only hope that you will be more competitive in your stomach, it's a boy." ”

Chang Muzhi paused and asked her, "Recently, you have been eating, and you still have snacks in your spare time, what kind of taste do you like?" ”

Chang Runzhi was stunned, and subconsciously replied: "Sour." ”

"That's good." Chang Muzhi nodded with satisfaction when he heard this: "Sour and spicy girl, this baby must be a son." ”

Chang Runzhi couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't argue with her.

In the next month, Chang Runzhi took care of his own fetus and maintained a good mood.

Liu Tong began to get busy.

King Rui wanted to investigate the murder case in the brothel, and his affairs in the household department accumulated somewhat.

Rui Wang handed over most of the chores to Liu Tong.

Liu Tong is very concerned about this and strives to do the best.

Chang Runzhi dialed the abacus every day in the Nine Emperors' Mansion to settle accounts, talked to Duan Rounan, listened to the laughter and conversation between the maids, and received the guests in the mansion from time to time...... Although it is leisurely, it is also abundant.

During this period, Qiu Lin's performance was recognized by Chang Runzhi, and she was officially kept by her side to serve.

Although the monthly example and status are not as good as those of old people like Yao Huang and Wei Zi, they are also a little better than looking forward to summer and winter.

Of course, Chang Runzhi's decision made Qiu Lin happy and happy, but it also inevitably made Pan Xia and Dong feel a little disappointed.

However, although most of the maids have their own selfishness and Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, in the end, they are the people chosen by Xiao Han's family, and they are relatively honest, although they are lost in their hearts, they dare not complain about Chang Runzhi.

And in the past month, various activities in the palace are also in full swing.

Because the Nanjun area has not been in the rain for a long time, Emperor Yuanwu carried out a sacrifice to the sky after setting up the Qionglin banquet to pray for rain in the Nanjun area.

Subsequently, the draft was put on the agenda.

However, at the beginning of the process, there were some obstacles.

There are not many official positions in the Great Wei Dynasty, and there are also many ministers in various idle positions in the court.

Among them, the number of speech officials accounts for a large share.

Among the speech officials, there are so many loyal and upright ministers, and it is their main duty to admonish them.

To put it bluntly, it's a special complaint.

When they find something unfair, immoral, or inappropriate, they will go straight to the court.

Emperor Yuan Wu needed them to speak out and admonish them to know the real feelings of the people and some things that were not known to the public in private, such as courtiers, officials, and relatives of the emperor.

But sometimes, Emperor Yuanwu is really annoyed that they are so stunned, what to say.

After all, the ministers of direct advice would not look at Emperor Yuanwu's face.

On the contrary, if Emperor Yuanwu resolutely did not accept their advice, they could still force each other to die and carry out death advice.

The minister of the dead, that is a famous person in history.

This time, two ministers bluntly said that the drought in Nanjun was a warning from heaven that Emperor Yuanwu should not be drafted at this time, and the people and money would be lost.

Emperor Yuanwu was very angry.

He chose some newcomers to enter the palace, what does it have to do with the labor and money?

Pulling the skin upwards and facing downwards, Emperor Yuanwu was eager to slaughter these two stubborn ministers.

The draft dragged on for half a month, and Emperor Yuanwu was forced to shrink the scale of the draft again and again, and only ordered five primary draft girls, and the total number of primary draft girls must not exceed 100.

Emperor Yuanwu was a little aggrieved, and he was naturally in a very bad mood for a while.

Coincidentally, after the draft was decided, it was just in time for the expiration date of the one-month period given to King Rui.

Emperor Yuanwu's face was cloudy, and he stared at King Rui and said, "Have you found out about the murder case in the brothel?" ”

King Rui came out of the queue and arched his hand: "Back to my father, my sons and ministers have all been investigated." But—"

He paused and said, "This matter, Rong Erchen will discuss this matter with his father in detail after he disperses the court. (To be continued.) )
