Chapter 47: Postponement
However, even if the disaster passes, the previous damage is still there, and the population of the entire disaster area has been sharply reduced by one-half, and it can be said that the number of dead and injured this time can reach one million people, of course, most of them died of hunger, thirst, and plague. There are also those who died from bandits, bandits, fights between outcasts, and so on.
There are some places where the plague is severe, and there are even ten rooms and nine emptiness, and it will take some time for the imperial court to carry out the post-disaster resettlement work.
Chenjia Village has also been effectively controlled because of the plague, and the ban has been lifted, and everyone can go to the town again, and they will not stay at home all day long.
In the palace, the emperor Nangong went down early in the morning, and went to the queen mother's palace to ask for peace, the emperor has always been filial, and the surface work is very good, basically no one can see the flaws, even the queen mother thinks that the emperor is a great filial son, so he often puts forward some excessive requirements, so that Nangong is very embarrassed.
Of course, this is also the bottom line of Nangong Jue again and again, maybe one day, the emperor will start to deal with the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother doesn't know why. After all, the Queen Mother didn't know that the emperor already knew that she was not the Queen Mother's parent, and the Queen Mother's blockade in this matter was very strict, especially after the emperor ascended the throne, and those who knew about it were basically solved by the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother also knows that there is a blood relationship and there is no blood relationship, it is a world of difference, and therefore the Queen Mother is still a little uneasy about the emperor, although the news has been blocked, basically everyone who knows is dead, but the Queen Mother still thinks that the mother niece will give birth to the prince and become the queen, so she can sit back and relax, which is why the Queen Mother hopes that Concubine Jia will become the queen.
Of course, the emperor naturally knows the queen mother's thoughts, so for Jia Guifei, not only can she not become the queen, but she can't even have a son, otherwise, who knows if the ruthless woman of the queen mother will conspire to kill the emperor and let Jia Guifei's son ascend the throne, the little emperor is always easier to control than the emperor who has grown up, not to mention that it is an emperor who is related to the queen mother.
In order to avoid such a situation, the emperor naturally would not agree with the queen mother's suggestion, and of course he couldn't object too much, after all, this was not in line with the emperor's filial piety, so when Nangong Jue went to the queen mother's palace, he was thinking about how to deal with it.
Of course, the emperor will not pin his hopes on the queen mother to have feelings for the son she has raised for so many years, it is better to rely on others than on herself, as long as he is strong, then even if the other party is conspiratorial, it will not hurt. Thinking of this, the emperor already had a preliminary plan for the expansion plan of the secret shadow guard, and now he still dealt with the queen mother first, and then ordered his subordinates to do the shadow guard.
The Queen Mother's palace is also a time for those concubines to ask for peace at this time, and at this time it is also a rare opportunity for those low-grade concubines to see the emperor, but the Queen Mother is kind and compassionate, so the low-grade concubines can go to ask for peace the next day in addition to being re-re-invited, and the rest of the time can ask the main concubine every day, of course, there are not many concubines in the emperor's harem now, and there are only a few of the main concubines, and there are no low-level concubines who are the main concubines, so there is no need to ask for peace.
It is said to be compassionate, in fact, it is to reduce the opportunity for low-grade concubines and the emperor to meet, of course, this rule is not the rise of the queen mother, there have been before, but there were too many concubines in the past, so this was done, but the queen mother did this, and the low-grade concubines did not dare to complain, after all, the emperor is famous for his filial piety, if he offends the queen mother, it is really a day of no future.
It is also because of this that there are a lot of remarks in the palace that Concubine Jia will become the queen, after all, Concubine Jia has the support of the Queen Mother, if it weren't for the previous queen, Concubine Jia would have become the queen a long time ago, although it is not too late to say now.
"What do you say, I'm so happy, and I'll hear about it." As soon as the emperor entered the door, he heard laughter and said.
"The emperor has a lot of opportunities, so don't come to see the mourning family every day, beware of being tired." The Queen Mother is still very satisfied with this son, filial piety and ability, but she may not be born by herself, otherwise, she would not have become the Queen Mother and still need to plan so much. blame yourself for not being angry, otherwise, if you give birth to an emperor and become an emperor, then you still have to worry about something.
"Coming to see the queen mother is what I should do." The Emperor said.
"No one knows the emperor's filial piety, if the queen mother doesn't let the emperor come to see you, I'm afraid the emperor won't be able to sleep and eat, and the queen mother won't shirk the emperor's filial piety." Concubine Hui said.
"Concubine Hui is really good at talking, how can the mourning family not understand the emperor's filial piety. Emperor, Concubine Jia has been accompanying the mourning family in the palace all these years, which makes the mourning family very happy, how can she reward Concubine Jia. The Queen Mother said.
After the Queen Mother finished speaking, the faces of the concubines present changed, they all understood what the Queen Mother meant, didn't she just want to let Jia Guifei's slut be the queen, Jia Guifei usually relied on the support of the Queen Mother, and tossed them a lot, if she was made the queen again, it would not be a way to live.
At this time, the other concubines all put aside their previous prejudices and dismantled Concubine Jia's platform, they don't want Concubine Jia to be the queen, as for who will be the queen, they will each have their own abilities at that time.
"The Queen Mother is really partial, it seems that only the sister of the concubine accompanies the Queen Mother, we sisters are all transparent people." Concubine De said.
"Sister Concubine De, are you jealous? However, Sister Guifei is the niece of the Queen Mother, and she has always been filial to the Queen Mother, so she really deserves this reward. Rufei said.
"Okay, the concubines who accompany the Queen Mother have merit and rewards, so let's go down." The Emperor said.
"Thank you for the emperor's reward, we will accept it with shame." A few concubines said.
The queen mother was a little unhappy, she could have taken the opportunity to let the emperor make the concubine the queen, but unfortunately they were all mixed up by a few people, but the harem battle queen mother also knew that if those people didn't pull their hind legs, the queen mother would be careful, and now on the bright side, these concubines are not her opponents, how to say that she is also the emperor's queen mother, and her identity is different.
"Emperor, the queen has been gone for a while, the harem can't be left without an owner for a day, it's time to choose the queen. I think Concubine Jia is good, she is your cousin, and her status is high enough, virtuous and virtuous, how to look at it. The Queen Mother said.
"Queen Mother, the queen's candidate can't be decided so hastily, it needs to be discussed by the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and during this time, natural disasters **, this has just ended, it is not the best time to choose the queen, I am ready to choose the queen in the spring next year, and the draft, what does the queen think?" The Emperor said.
For his own mentions, the emperor is eighty percent sure that the queen mother will agree, after all, the queen mother does not want to have a stiff relationship with the emperor, and this is almost winter, and there have been too many disasters recently, and it is indeed not the time to canonize the queen.
