Chapter 76

Empress Zhang was quite surprised, "The prince and the woman, where is the turn to get the consent or disagreement of the courtiers?" Your Majesty, when you make an order, will anyone dare to resist and disobey the order? Eat the heart of the bear, the leopard gall can't be. ”

In Empress Zhang's view, although the civil officials are pedantic, they are loyal, and if the emperor orders any of their girls to be the second concubine of the prince, they only have the share of promises. If you are happy, you will happily do your family affairs, but if you are not happy, you can only put the girl's hands on your face and laugh with a strong smile.

For the sake of an undesirable marriage, resist the will? For a girl, against the royal family? Empress Zhang thought it was incredible. For a family, what is a girl, if a girl can benefit the family, how many people can't ask for it.

Moreover, although the second concubine of the prince is one level lower than the main concubine, she cannot be regarded as an ordinary concubine. The second concubine is the same as the main and deputy envoys sent by the central government to pay tribute, and the crown is similar to the system of the Tang and Song dynasties, and the honor guard is slightly reduced depending on the concubine. When getting married, although the prince does not welcome him in person, he also has to go to the Fengxian Hall to worship the ancestors, who dares to underestimate the people who have worshiped the ancestors in the Fengxian Palace?

I'm not satisfied with this status, and I think it's too high. Empress Zhang was unhappy.

The emperor said gently: "There are many civil officials in the court who dare to resist the decree. What is Goshi used for? What is Kedao used for? Queen, these people have humble positions, but they are all outspoken and dare to admonish. ”

Empress Zhang smiled reservedly, "They dare to advise His Majesty for the sake of the government." If it is for the sake of personal grievances, who dares to say more? "For official business, they advised the emperor to get a good name, and for private matters to face the emperor, and if they were determined to die, their reputation would not be good.

The emperor touched his nose, "They won't treat it as a personal grudge, and they can tell a bunch of big truths." The queen, the husband and wife are the heads of the five Lun, and the marriage is a major event, which cannot be taken lightly. ”

The emperor imagined for a moment, "If I pass down the will and order Pei Kai's granddaughter to be the youngest concubine, Pei Kai will definitely resign; If he can't refuse, he will probably tell his family to prepare the coffin, and then write a book, impassionedly scolding me for being bloody. ”

"Pei Kai, he has always been this kind of character who would rather be broken than broken, if he wants to force him to sacrifice his precious granddaughter, he will choose to die."

Empress Zhang was stunned, "As for it?" "What an honor it is for his granddaughter to marry into the royal family, he can't think about it?

"As for." The Emperor nodded calmly. He has been dealing with civil officials for many years, and he knows a lot about the character of civil officials and their unyielding preferring to die.

"This kind of stupid person, let him die." Empress Zhang said coldly.

Empress Zhang knew a long time ago that the Ten Princes treated the little girl of the Pei family differently, but she didn't take it to heart. The princess of the ten princes has already been selected anyway, if the ten princes have a confidante and a favorite girl, the family and character are gone, and they will marry the second concubine. Empress Zhang had always thought so, but as soon as the emperor said this, she realized that her thoughts and the intentions of the ten princes were difficult to reconcile, and she was troubled and anxious.

The emperor slapped the table angrily and said sharply: "Pei Qing is my minister!" Eight years ago, I wanted to transfer him to Beijing to take up a post, and the people of Gusu wept and stayed along the river, for dozens of miles. Queen, do you know how far a person can be an official before he can be so loved by the people? Such a clean official, such a capable official, is a damned person in the eyes of the queen?! ”

Just for your selfish thoughts, can't such a rare official even survive? Queen, you're so chilling.

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Empress Zhang thought for a while, stood up and walked in front of the emperor, knelt down and prostrate, "The concubine lost her words, and the concubine knew her mistake." Your Majesty, the concubine was just angry for a while, not really had malicious thoughts. ”

Empress Zhang prostrated herself on the ground for a long time, and the hall was silent.

Empress Zhang saw that the emperor did not mean to forgive her, and she regretted it in her heart. Knowing that he was extremely shrewd in court politics, what did he do to insult the courtiers? Alas, it's all to blame for him being too easy-going, too accommodating, and making himself less vigilant.

"I am your original wife, and I am the mother of your two sons and two daughters, even if I really said something wrong, I shouldn't be so shameless." Empress Zhang complained in her heart.

The emperor was probably really angry, and Empress Zhang had already knelt down to plead guilty, but he still brushed his sleeves and left. When he left, he was furious.

The palace maids, grandmothers, and chamberlains of Kunning Palace were all panicked, and Queen Zhang was ashamed and ashamed, and ordered the palace maids to take off the hairpin ring jewelry for herself, take off the Yanju regular clothes, change into plain clothes, and walk to the main hall of the Qianqing Palace to kneel and take off the hairpin to be punished. She was in her early fifties, old, with her jewelry removed, her long hair and shawl, and her face looking even older. She is usually very graceful and luxurious, but when she arrives here, her expression is full of shame and uneasiness.

The empress is actually a very insecure position, and if the emperor wants to turn his face, she is powerless to fight against it.

Empress Zhang took off the hairpin and waited for the sin, and it didn't take long for the prince, the crown princess, and the ten princes to know the Tao, and their souls were scattered. The prince hesitated, "I don't know why?" How do we intercede? The crown princess knew in her heart that the Tao should be related to the queen's banquet, but it was about the prince's beloved brother, so she didn't know how to speak, and her expression was hesitant. The tenth prince quickly took off the crown of his hair, took off his big clothes, and kicked his shoes flying, "Big brother and sister-in-law, you two discussed carefully, I will go to the emergency first." Regardless of whether the crown prince and the crown princess disagreed, he arrogantly pushed away a group of chamberlains, ran barefoot, rushed to the front of the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, and knelt behind Queen Zhang, "Mother, I will accompany you." ”

Queen Zhang didn't look back, and calmly ordered, "It's my mother who said the wrong thing, and it has nothing to do with you." Xiao Shi goes back, don't mess around. The Ten Princes were very stubborn and refused to leave, "No, I have to accompany you." ”

The chamberlain hurriedly went in to report, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Ten is not wearing big clothes, barefoot, probably running in a hurry, I don't know what I stepped on, and there is blood on my feet......" Before the waiter finished speaking, the emperor threw down the fold in his hand and shouted: "Don't invite the imperial doctor, what are you talking about?" The chamberlain hurriedly agreed, and rushed to Xuan Taiyi.

The crown prince and the crown princess also changed into plain clothes and knelt outside the palace to plead guilty. Empress Zhang ordered them to go back to the palace, but the crown prince and the crown princess had tears in their eyes, and the ten princes looked stubborn and refused to leave.

The imperial doctor hurriedly came with the medical box on his back, and the emperor ordered the chamberlain to help the ten princes in and show him his feet. The Ten Princes struggled, refusing to live or die, "If you shed such a little blood, you can't die or be injured, so you don't have to worry about it." Seeing that he was stubborn, the emperor came over angrily, dragged him up and spanked him, and the tenth prince pouted his ass and beat him, "Beat, I won't leave if I am killed, I will accompany my mother." ”

After the trouble reached the worst, the emperor ordered someone to bring the queen's crown dress and serve Empress Zhang to change it. This means that the eyes of the rain have returned to good times, and the ten princes obediently no longer make trouble, "Dad, my feet hurt." The emperor was so angry that he grabbed him and beat him twice, and watched the imperial doctor clean his wounds and bandage him.

The tenth prince was wounded, and the emperor saw that he was fine, and ordered him to go back and rest. The ten princes agreed, followed behind the crown prince and the crown princess, and turned back step by step.

Queen Zhang put on the queen's crown dress again and couldn't help but smile bitterly. A young husband and wife, who have been with each other for decades, are so ruthless.

Empress Zhang bowed in front of the emperor, and the emperor looked at her for a long time, and said slowly: "How does Xiao Shi love you?" How did you treat him? Queen, ask yourself, are you worthy of Xiao Shi? ”

The emperor waved his hand tiredly, and ordered the palace people to take Empress Zhang back, "Think about it, your son is always your own." "Even though Empress Zhang has thousands of grievances, this is not a good time to argue, so she has to leave silently.
