On the eighth day of the ninth month, the enthronement ceremony was held as scheduled, and Emperor Liu Tan of Chongzhen announced the universe and celebrated the whole world. On the same day, Jin Feng issued an edict and canonized Xia Jiang as the queen of the six palaces, and the mother of the world.

Three days later, Emperor Chongzhen revised the 32 laws, abolished the left and right Xiangguo, restored the six Shangshu to perform their duties, and demoted from the first rank to the third grade. Because the former right minister Xue Lingnan was convicted, the right minister Yin Tian told the old feudal marquis, the phase was originally empty, but now it has been abolished, and the civil and military officials have few objections. However, since then, when the dynasty is in a proper position, only the heavenly supervisor has made a point.

In the face of this situation, there was immediately a chaotic imperial history that proposed that since he wanted to be demoted, not only the six Shangshu should be demoted, but Si Tianjian should also be treated equally. As soon as these words came out, the court immediately turned into a vegetable market again, several officials of Si Tianjian and a group of civil servants quarreled, and several military generals with military power watched from the sidelines, Zhu Muzhao, who had not been out of office for a long time, did not say a word, and Emperor Chongzhen, who had just sat on the dragon chair and had not yet covered his buttocks, sneered again and again.

Soon, everyone was unhappy with the emperor, so there was no sound after arguing, and Emperor Chongzhen reprimanded him with a straight face: "With such strength to say some nonsense, he actually threw aside the major affairs of the country, Jiang Huaiying in the northeast supported the army and respected himself, did not go abroad for funeral, did not start a war, and put this matter on hold for the time being, now you will give me a charter, how to punish the traitor?" ”

The ministers looked at each other, the king of Dongjing held hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, entrenched in Liaodong for a long time, to send troops to suppress it is not a day's work, not to mention that the Northeast Army is brave and good at fighting, no one has the certainty of winning against it, if you take the initiative to ask for help, turn around and eat defeat, who can afford it.

A group of people who could still speak well became dumb in an instant, and Emperor Chongzhen's face was very ugly, and no emperor wanted the officials under his rule to be a bunch of waste. At this time, Yin Yuanrong, the left commander of the Yulin Army, came out of the ranks, knelt on the ground with his fists clenched, and said in a loud voice: "The minister is willing to lead the troops to the northeast to crusade against the rebels!" ”

Yin Tianhou withdrew from the court, but left his most proud grandson, although Yin Yuanrong did not have great talent, but he was a natural general, and he was only short of some opportunities for training.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded slightly, looking at Yin Yuanrong's eyes with appreciation, he raised his hand to signal him to get up, but he was not allowed to ask for his life. Then, the elderly Yasukuni Gong, Xuanwu General Feng Xiao, and the newly appointed Shangshu of the Military Department came out one after another to ask for battle.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't say anything, his cold eyes swept the hall, his eyes fell on the group on the right, and asked in a deep voice: "Does Si Tianjian have a proposition?" ”

Zhu Muzhao stood still, a few steps behind him, Yu Shu, who was tied to the crown of vegetarian fat, stepped forward, picked up his gauze robe and knelt beside several old ministers, and said with low eyebrows: "The ministers think that they can wait for work." ”

"Oh?" Emperor Chongzhen sat on his side and looked at her with interest: "What do you mean by waiting for work?" ”

Yu Shu said: "Qi Yu Sheng, in addition to the thaumaturgy of breaking death, there is another Liuyao thaumaturgy that has a slight success, which can know natural disasters and the rise and fall of the country. The night before, the ministers had a hexagram, the northern Tatars were ready to move, and they would invade Liaodong in the near future, and it was impossible for the Northeast Army to remain indifferent. If Jiang Huai wins the interest, he will be allowed to return to Beijing to enjoy the glory and wealth, if he resists stubbornly, he will go north and take advantage of his illness to kill him. This is for leisure. ”

Emperor Chongzhen's eyes lit up, and several generals thought about it, and before they could say anything, some people jumped out to oppose it, and it was a few Wenchen who were arguing about the rank of Si Tianjian Yiguan.

"The minister thinks it's inappropriate, let's not say that Lord Yu's divination is somewhat certain, even if there is really a war in the north, and the Northeast Army and the Tartars are both defeated, but Jiang Huai won the border is a merit, and the court stands by and doesn't say anything, but also takes advantage of the danger of people to send troops to suppress it, won't it attract criticism from the world?"

"Exactly, if you want to conscript, you must do it as soon as possible, and it is the right way to send troops to conscript in an open and honest manner. At the beginning of his enthronement, the Holy One must not neglect the hearts of the people. ”

Facing a group of Wenchen who stood and spoke without backache, Yu Shu only sneered and refuted them unceremoniously: "Jiang Huaiying, the king of Dongjing, is my Da'an courtier, and it is his duty to guard the border, no matter how great the merit is, it can't cover his sin of rebellion, so let him take the credit for it, it's already benevolent, how can he take advantage of the danger of others?" Are all the people of the world as pedantic as you are, and do not distinguish between right and wrong? ”

Several Wenchen blushed sneeringly at her, and just opened their mouths to refute two sentences, they heard Emperor Chongzhen interrupt them unhappily: "Okay, shut up." The matter of rebellion will be discussed another day, and you will be given three days to think about it with your brains. ”

With that, he withdrew from the court. After the dispersal of the court, several old ministers gathered together and discussed waiting to go to the council office to have a meeting, and someone invited Zhu Muzhao to accompany him, and saw the eunuch Bingli trotting over.

"Mention the big point to stay, Lord Yu, please also stay, the saint uploads the two of you to the study of the Tai'an Hall to talk."

These two words were not loud, but the ministers who were standing nearby and had not had time to leave heard them, looked at each other, pondered Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts, and watched Zhu Muzhao and Yu Shu follow the great eunuch with envy or jealousy.

Yu Shu stayed in the Tai'an Palace for an afternoon, lunch was the emperor's reward, and after the meal, Zhu Muzhao retired first, leaving her alone with the king.

Emperor Chongzhen was very interested in her strategy of "waiting for work with ease", but he was worried that her divination would be wrong, in case the imperial court adopted an attitude of ignoring the king of Dongjing, but the northern Tatars did not act, it would become a big joke in the world.

Yu Shu didn't dare to pack the ticket, and she was not fully sure that the Northeast Army would fight with the Tartars first, but she built Emperor Chongzhen, it was better to postpone it for two months and wait and see for a while, if the Tartars did not come to attack, it would not be too late to send troops.

If another person is the emperor, he may not listen to what Yu Shu said, but Emperor Chongzhen is different, when he was at the end of his life, he opened up the situation through Yu Shu at the Shuangyang Meeting, and he had a unique appreciation for her.

"Let me think about it again." Emperor Chongzhen was not in a hurry to make a decision, and as soon as the conversation changed, he asked Yu Shu: "I have ascended the throne, and there have been many recent mentions of the expiration of the term, what do you think?" ”

There has not been a big mention of re-election for more than 200 years, but this may not be Zhu Muzhao suddenly have this thought. What's more, he just abolished the position of the two phases, and there was a phenomenon of a big mention of the dominance of one family in the court, and he didn't want to let go of the power of the sky, would Zhu Muzhao be willing?

Compared with Zhu Muzhao, an uncontrollable generation of powerful ministers, he is of course more willing to use Yu Shu, who is better subdued by him.

When Yu Shu heard this, he knew that Emperor Chongzhen was suspicious of Zhu Muzhao, so he said without thinking: "Once the son of heaven and a courtier, the ancestors were so regulated, and they knew it well, and they had already told the minister a few days ago about taking over." ”

The implication is: You can rest assured, Lao Zhu will not rely on it.

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, his expression was much more relaxed, he seemed to be very satisfied with Yu Shu's point, and turned to gossip with her about the harem draft: "After the death of the first emperor, I dismissed the harem. The theory is that a group of newcomers should be entered, and in the past, they were selected in September, and I only ascended the throne, so I thought it was a bit hasty. In addition, the queen is pregnant, I don't want her to work hard for the selection, and the concubine doesn't do anything, so I want to avoid this year's selection and postpone it until next year's spring is warm. ”

There were not many women before he ascended the throne, Xia Jiangmin, the original wife, should be the queen, and Rui Zizhu was named a concubine on the Rui family's dragon merits, and there was another Mei Jieyu, and it was not worth mentioning further.

Yu Shu, as the queen's best friend, of course is in favor of being exempted from election this year, but she knows very well that the hundred officials in the court will not agree, and the selection involves the interests of everyone.

She pondered for a moment and asked, "Has the Holy Lord discussed it with the Empress Mother?" "It depends on what Xia Jiangmin thinks, if she also agrees to be exempted, then there is nothing to say.

"The queen does not agree to be exempted," Emperor Chongzhen shook his head half helplessly, "She said that the selection can be entrusted to Concubine Shu and the Kunling Bureau, but the harem cannot be left empty and the people in the court unstable." ”

Yu Shu sighed secretly: Xia Jiangmin is no longer the innocent and ignorant little girl, the position of the queen and the child in her belly forced her to grow up overnight.

"What the queen said is very true, and the minister thinks that she might as well follow the mother's wishes, and ask Concubine Shu to temporarily preside over the selection on her behalf, and the Kunling Bureau will assist from the side, so that she will not make a mistake and can also appease people's hearts."

Emperor Chongzhen hesitated, but nodded in agreement, and immediately called in to write the eunuch's decree, one to the harem, one to the Ministry of Rites, and the other directly to Yu Shu.

When the sun set, Yu Shu came out of the palace, sitting in a soft sedan chair and was so tired that he didn't want to move.

The next day, there were officials from the Ministry of Rites who went to the Kunling Bureau to discuss the selection, although the Ministry of Rites had a scholar, there was no need to hang behind the end of Si Tianjian in everything, but they wanted them to go alone immediately, but they couldn't do it for a while, and they habitually ran to Si Tianjian's side.

It was none other than Yu Shu's old acquaintance, Lord Wang, the ceremonial official who was responsible for guiding the person holding the instrument at the ancestor worship ceremony, and now it was time to call Wang Shilang. This is because the original Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites was directly promoted to Shangshu, and Lord Wang was also promoted to official wealth.

Acquaintances are easy to do, Lord Wang did not have three fires for new officials to take office, did not compete with Kunling Bureau, and kindly drafted the charter for the selection of the harem on the same day, sent it to the palace, first asked Empress Xiajiang to look at it, and then transferred it to Concubine Rui Shu. Then he sent official letters to all prefectures and counties to collect school-age women to enter Beijing.

Yu Shu didn't think it was a big deal, and the emperor didn't mean to ask her to do it herself, so she handed it over to Situ Qinglan to stare at, who knew that within two days, someone came to the palace to spread the word, and Concubine Rui Shu announced that she entered the palace for questioning, saying that it was for the selection.

Yu Shu felt ridiculous when she heard such a random summons, now Empress Dowager Xue didn't dare to call her around, Rui Zizhu, a concubine who was not favored, actually dared to use chicken feathers as an arrow to arouse her.

It just so happened that she wanted to see Xia Jiangmin and enter the palace by the way, so she didn't embarrass this lady, and asked Wen Shaoan to go downstairs to answer the summons of the eunuch, tidy up her clothes, and enter the palace later. r1152
