1061 Tolerance, this girl's life is too hard
Qin Shiyan announced that Gu Qiancheng would enter the palace at this time, naturally it was not aimed at Old Lady Gu. Dignified emperor, is it necessary for him to surrender his identity and worry about the old lady of the Gu family?
Qin Xiaoyan announced that Gu Qiancheng entered the palace this time, so that Gu Qiancheng would enter the palace and preside over the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the palace.
Every year in the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve, a hundred officials will be feasted. Of course, it does not really refer to a hundred officials, but to those who are valued by the emperor or have a noble status.
The people who can participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, even if they are not generals with real power, are also famous families and powerful people in the capital. Like the Gu family, when the old lady was an official, he was still eligible to participate, but as soon as the old lady Gu retired, he lost his qualifications.
The palace's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet will not only feast officials, but also their wives. Those ladies were generally entertained by the queen and the concubines of the harem, but ......
This year has been exceptional.
Today, Qin Xiaoyan has just succeeded to the throne, not only did he not have a queen, but he didn't even have a concubine, and he couldn't find anyone to entertain his daughters.
The courtiers did ask the Empress Dowager to continue to host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, but the Empress Dowager said that she was old and did not have the energy to host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, so choose someone else.
The courtiers were willing to ask again and again, saying that they would let the Empress Dowager come out to host the dinner, and later on, it became, and if it was really not possible, they asked the Empress Dowager to point someone to host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.
The courtier's move is nothing more than wanting to borrow the hand of the Empress Dowager to put pressure on Qin Xiaoyan, you must know that this candidate is not casually referred to, if it refers to the concubine in the palace, the Empress Dowager will have no face, if it refers to an unmarried girl?
Don't think about it, this girl will not be a queen or a concubine in the future, and the Queen Mother has no suitable daughter, so the Queen Mother can only refer to others at this time.
The Empress Dowager has always had a good relationship with Qin Lianyan, and if the Empress Dowager wants to maintain her current honor and want her family to prosper, it is impossible to go against Qin Lianyan, and this candidate must be Qin Lianyan's approval.
Sure enough, after the Empress Dowager heard the courtier's request, she did not directly refer to people, but said to think carefully, this thought was two quarters of an hour, and two quarters of an hour later, the Empress Dowager pointed Gu Qiancheng into the palace to host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.
"Gu Qiancheng? Who's that? Whose daughter? A powerful family with a surname in the capital? The courtiers were dumbfounded when they heard the name of the Empress Dowager.
Why is this name so unfamiliar?
Still have a good memory to remember, "Gu Qiancheng, I remember...... The woman who found the lost money in the treasury. It turned out that the eldest lady of Gu Guogong's mansion, the niece of Concubine Gu, and the fiancée of the former prince of Zhao. ”
Someone counted Gu Qiancheng's identity, and everyone was dumbfounded.
How can this girl feel particularly unlucky, and the people who have a relationship with her seem to be very unlucky.
For example, the Gu Guogong Mansion where she was born has now changed from the Guogong Mansion to the Gu Mansion, and from a wealthy duke to an ordinary family.
And her aunt, Concubine Gu, was originally a favorite concubine with three thousand favors, but now? Because of the matter of the five princes, Concubine Gu had already been favored in front of the first emperor, and the new emperor did not want to see Concubine Gu, and now Concubine Gu's status in the palace is only a little better than that of the palace maid.
As for Qin Yunchu, the son of King Zhao, not to mention, first his father rebelled, and then he rebelled by himself, and now he is still alive because of the emperor's benevolence and generosity.
As soon as Gu Qiancheng's identity came out, a group of courtiers began to discuss it, and asked the Empress Dowager to change someone one by one, Gu Qiancheng can't do it, it's really not good, this girl's life is too bad.
The people close to her were unlucky, and her biological parents were even more miserable, her mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to her, and her father was also sued by her in prison, and he didn't come out until the emperor granted amnesty to the world.
Life is so hard, and she sues her father, how can this woman host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet on behalf of the Empress Dowager?
The courtiers stopped doing it, and desperately kowtowed outside, begging the Empress Dowager to change someone, but the Empress Dowager ignored them at all, and after a while, a forbidden army came and took these ministers away one by one.
The harem, these courtiers can not be allowed to stay for a long time, before they could be allowed to meet the empress dowager outside the palace, that is the emperor's grace, if these people take the emperor's kindness for granted, one by one rubbing their noses and faces, it is a crime that deserves death.
As soon as the courtiers heard it, they knew that they were wrong, and they left one by one, not daring to make trouble with the empress dowager again, but ...... Can't you ask the Empress Dowager to change her mind, ask the emperor to do it, right?
Nine times out of ten, the person chosen by the Empress Dowager was instructed by the emperor and said through the mouth of the Empress Dowager, and they went to ask the emperor to change his mind, which was more trouble-free than begging the Empress Dowager.
So, a group of ministers ran to beg Qin Shanyan, but who was Qin Shanyan? If someone asks him, he will answer? These people also underestimate him too much.
"This is the will of the Empress Dowager, can't you make irresponsible remarks and be dissatisfied? If you are dissatisfied, you will get out of the palace, and you don't have to attend tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and you won't have to attend it in the future. ”
Being able to appear at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the palace means that he is an important minister of the emperor and a courtier valued by the emperor, and if he is kicked out in public by the emperor, the emperor is dissatisfied and disgusted with this person. And the person who is disgusted by the emperor, will his colleagues still support each other with him and help each other? Will the officials at the bottom do their best to carry the blame for him?
No, no!
If he did not appear at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, he said that he was far away from the center of power, and when the time came, let alone begging the emperor to change his mind, it would be difficult to enter the palace and face the saint.
If it is a major event involving Jiangshan Sheji, they desperately beg for it, and they are disgusted by the emperor, maybe they can still leave their names in history, but it is really not cost-effective to anger the emperor in order to preside over the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.
Besides, the emperor just asked Gu Qiancheng to host the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and did not want to make her the queen, and it was really not cost-effective to lose the qualification to participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet for this matter.
The courtiers weighed the pros and cons, and kept silent one by one, even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to show it.
"Holy Lord, those adults are gone." As soon as the officials kneeling outside the hall left, the eunuch stepped forward with a smile and reported to Qin Xiaoyan.
"A bunch of spineless scholars." Qin silently snorted disdainfully.
These people think they are only taking a step back today, but soon they will understand that today is just the beginning. And with this step of retreat, it is not too difficult for them to retreat later, until they are behind Gu Qiancheng.
Human nature is like this, if he had been tough on Gu Qiancheng at the beginning, the courtiers would definitely oppose it desperately, and maybe there would be a river of blood at that time, and he and Gu Qiancheng would also leave a mark in the history books.
His stroke should be mediocre; Gu Qiancheng was naturally in trouble.
Now, he broke the bottom line of the courtiers' tolerance step by step, and forced the courtiers to accept Gu Qiancheng little by little, and when the courtiers reacted, they would find that they had already made too many concessions and sacrificed too much in front, and it didn't seem cost-effective to work hard at this time.
And once these people start to think about this problem, it will not be difficult for him to set up a thousand cities peacefully!
