Zhou Heng said: "Does Yin Yin want to intercede for these people?" But they are foreigners, not of my race, and their hearts will be different. ”

Cui Keyin said: "Does the emperor want to kill them?" This land is so vast that there must be people working on it, or it will soon be occupied by other countries, such as Warat, which is close at hand. ”

In a game of chess in the world, what is fighting for is land, destroying the Tatars, occupying the land of the Tatars, and incorporating these lands into the territory, Zhou Heng is enough to become the master of Zhongxing. Later generations will definitely list him as a Ming monarch. But if these lands are left uninhabited and uninhabited, there will be no few tribal states that covet this vast land, and if nothing else, the Tatar neighbouring Varat will not miss such a good opportunity.

In this way, the land will be gained and lost, and future generations will not only not praise Zhou Heng's achievements, but will call him a stupid king.

Zhou Heng smiled and said slightly: "What about Yinyin's opinion?" Our people are not good at herding. ”

"Where water and grass are abundant, the land must be fertile. The nomads did not know how to cultivate, so the fertile land was barren and grassy grows. They also have no choice but to graze on these meadows. These lands will play a very different role in our hands. We can build cities and move people over and let them work on these lands for generations to come. ”

"Oh? Building a city to the north? Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows.

Cui Keyin looked at him, and suddenly said, "Presumably the emperor has an idea?" ”

So all this is to test her?

Zhou Heng accepted the look of ridicule and said, "That's not it." The ministers did not expect to be able to bring the Tatar land into the territory in one fell swoop. There are still some that can't react. Now they only want to get Wu Jiang and the others out of Hua Shixun's hands first. Hmph, I'd like to see how far these people will go. ”

Ignoring the great joy of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, he didn't hurry up to pat his ass, but made trouble for more than a dozen civil officials to kneel outside the tent door and force his Yin Yin to comply, these people are so upside down, do they still want him to let go? Dream on.

Cui Keyin listened obediently, and immediately understood, and said: "The foreign minister is making noise outside the concubine's bedchamber, and he should be punished." For their sake. Even if the capital offense can be avoided. Living sins are also more suffering. ”

Zhou Hengda was satisfied, nodded and said, "Yin Yin is right." ”

"What does the emperor mean, what should I do with them?" Cui Keyin asked Zhou Heng's hole cards first.

Zhou Heng said: "Wu Jiang and others, they are very corrupt. often thinks of himself as a talent. I can't get used to seeing my mother Si Chen......"

Cui Keyin understood. said: "It seems that they are not used to the emperor not accepting concubines." ”

These people often sing and drink and sing harmony, and take prostitution as a pleasure, how can they take women in their eyes. If that's the case. That must cure their disease.

Zhou Heng looked at her with a smile. These people, usually don't quarrel with him, don't say anything to him, and often interfere in his married life, accusing him of not accepting concubines, only having one son, sorry for the ancestors. He really wanted to greet the eighteenth generation of these people's ancestors. He already has an eldest son, and he doesn't have no heirs, how can he be sorry for his ancestors and ancestors?

Cui Keyin thought about it sideways and said, "Does the emperor want his concubines to be powerful?" ”

He handed her over to deal with it on the grounds that it had happened outside the sleeping tent. In this way, the courtiers really felt the emperor's protection of her, and they did not dare to underestimate her anymore.

Zhou Heng smiled but said nothing.

The two had a meal, Zhou Heng got up and went back to the big tent of the Chinese army, Cui Keyin changed into court clothes, sat upright, and asked people to call in a few civilian officials who were kneeling and begging outside the tent.

The leader is a fat man, and his facial features are upright, probably not so fat when he participated in the imperial examination, and he can be regarded as good-looking. It's just that for some reason, after becoming an official, it's like blowing a ball, and it's fat like this.

Several people knelt outside the tent for most of the day, their knees were already bruised, and their hearts were even more resentful, but when they saw Cui Keyin, they still performed the salute honestly, and said in unison: "The ministers see the queen's mother." ”

Cui Keyin didn't shout, and said: "Taizu ancient precept, the rear/palace is not allowed to interfere in politics." This palace is a woman, and she has always only taken care of the trivial affairs of the harp/palace, and she has not been with Wen Chaozheng, and I don't know if you want to see you, for what? ”

First move out the ancient teachings of Taizu, so that they can't open their mouths to plead.

The fat man had already scolded in his heart, how dare he say half a point on his face, a fat face wrinkled into a bun, and said: "Niangniang said that it was funny, this matter has nothing to do with the government." Last night, Wu Jiang and the others got lost in the night, walked outside the mother's sleeping tent by mistake, and were caught by the Royal Forest Army patrolling the night. The ministers asked Niangniang to spare them this time for the sake of Wu Jiang and the others who have always been diligent and thrifty, loyal to the monarch and patriotic? ”

"Oh?" Cui Keyin said: "Is there such a thing? ”

Completely unaware.

The fat man almost vomited blood, according to reliable sources, Wu Jiang made a lot of noise outside your old man's tent last night, and he was taken down by Hua Shixun, do you know at this time? People are really being detained.

The fat man and Wu Jiang are sons and daughters, no matter what, people have to be saved, so they have to lower their posture and say: "Niangniang is the mother of a country, and she is from a famous family, and the name of virtuous and virtuous is known all over the world, how can she be as rude and contemptible as Wu Jiang and other rude and contemptuous husbands?" Please also ask the mother to be gracious, and let him go this time. ”

Wu Jiang is the first offender, as long as he is awarded, the others will naturally be released together.

Cui Keyin hooked the corners of her lips and sneered: "My reputation for virtue and virtue is known in the world? Didn't you say that this palace is a disaster for the country and confuses the lord, I didn't expect someone to justify this palace like this today. ”

As soon as the fat man spoke, a round-faced civil official next to him knew that something bad was going on, and he didn't plead in a low voice at this time, but used "virtuous and virtuous" to threaten the queen, is it because Wu Jiang and others have a long life? The queen is also something they can threaten?

Although they usually say that the emperor favors the queen alone and makes the Cui family dominant, there are many people who secretly say that the queen is bewitching and bewitching the lord, but it is all whispered in the dark room behind people's backs. At this time, let the queen let Wu Jiang and the others go for the sake of a virtuous reputation, which would harm them.

Sure enough, Cui Keyin was upset when she heard it.

"!" The round face hurriedly kowtowed, and said: "Wu Jiang is uninhibited, uninhibited, and it is really their fault to trespass into the mother's bedroom, and please punish the mother." It's just that now is the time to employ people, and I ask the mother to let them make meritorious service first. ”

When the fat man saw Cui Keyin's face change, his face turned green with fright, he usually opened his mouth, thinking that he was invincible in the world, but in front of Cui Keyin, he only felt that he couldn't express his intentions, and his hands and feet trembled.

"Exactly, beg Niangniang to let Wu Jiang and others make meritorious contributions." The others hurriedly kowtowed.

If you want to say that, it's like a human word. Cui Keyin glanced at Lu Ying. Lu Ying hurriedly said: "Last night, there were indeed more than a dozen adults who made trouble outside the dormitory, and they were detained by Huada. ”

The round face saw that things eased up, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was good friends with Yang Kun, the two were fellow villagers, and in the same year, Yang Kun gave him a satisfactory concubine before leaving Beijing.

Cui Keyin lightly clasped the armrest with her fingers and said, "Is that so?" (To be continued.) )
