Chapter 189: The Emperor enters the palace
Zhu Youxiao didn't take the question book, waved his hand and said, "Let your people send a token to Taikang Mansion." By the way, tell Tai Comber that you don't need to ask for instructions when you enter the palace in the future, and you can enter the palace anytime and anywhere with a token. ”
Chen Hong was slightly stunned, the treatment given by the emperor can be said to be very, very favored by the Tai Kangbo family.
For Zhu Youxiao, this is what he has been preparing to do for a long time. I want to give Zhang Guoji enough favor, at least let the outside people think that his majesty is enough to favor the abbot, or that Queen Zhang, who is favored enough, has reached the blind point.
In this regard, Zhu Youxiao's role model was the Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youjiao. Zhu Youzhang's two brothers-in-law were spoiled by him. It's just that Zhu Youzhu really dotes on them, that's love for the house and Wu.
Because Emperor Hongzhi had only one empress, there were no other women. This is something that has never been done in the whole of history.
Zhu Youjiao's two uncles can enter the palace anytime and anywhere, and Zhu Youxiao also gave the same treatment to Zhang Guoji this time.
"Yes, Your Majesty. The slave and the maid will go. Chen Hong bowed down and agreed, and he valued the queen and the Tai Kangbo family more and more in his heart.
The news that Tai Kangbo got the token to enter and leave the palace at will soon spread in the palace, and everyone knew one thing, that is, His Majesty really favored the queen, and he was pampered to the bones.
"Congratulations to the Queen." A group of palace people who reported the good news knelt in front of Queen Zhang, saying words of congratulations.
When Empress Zhang first got the news, she almost burst into tears, Her Majesty was so good to her mother's family.
"Go to the Qianqing Palace."
Empress Zhang ignored the little palace maid shouting behind her, and ran directly towards the Qianqing Palace.
"Your Majesty!" After Empress Zhang saw Zhu Youxiao, her eyes were red and she was choked up and speechless.
"Orb, what's wrong? Someone bullied you? Zhu Youxiao couldn't help pinching Baozhu's pink cheeks.
"It's not ......" Empress Zhang told Zhu Youxiao what she said in her heart one by one, and the two of them got tired of the Qianqing Palace for an afternoon and had dinner together.
Empress Zhang did not return to Kunning Palace, and stayed directly in Zhu Youxiao's Qianqing Palace, and the two of them were tired of it all night.
So someone recorded it again: the queen stayed in the Qianqing Palace.
Early the next morning, Empress Zhang accompanied Zhu Youxiao to have breakfast, and then returned to Kunning Palace.
It's not that Empress Zhang doesn't want to continue to accompany Her Majesty here, but she really can't be here.
On the one hand, it is because Empress Zhang's father is about to enter the palace, and she needs to accompany her father; On the other hand, it is because if the queen has been living in the emperor's Qianqing Palace, it will not have a good impact on it.
There will be people in the palace who chew the root of the tongue and say that she, as the queen, is jealous of the harem woman and dominates the emperor alone.
That's not a good review. So Empress Zhang left the Qianqing Palace directly and returned to the Kunning Palace.
Not long after Empress Zhang returned to the palace, her father Zhang Guoji entered the palace.
Speaking of which, I haven't seen my father for a few days, and Queen Zhang really misses him.
After seeing her father, Empress Zhang's heart was full of mixed feelings, but she could only sit there and not speak.
After saluting, Empress Zhang said to Zhang Guoji: "Father, come and sit." ”
After Zhang Guoji sat down, Empress Zhang asked with mixed feelings: "Is the family okay?" ”
Looking at his daughter, Zhang Guoji nodded with a smile and said, "Everything is fine." ”
Empress Zhang was relieved and comforted her father: "Dad, you don't have to worry about your daughter, everything is fine with your daughter in the palace, and Your Majesty is also very good to your daughter." ”
Speaking of this, Empress Zhang's face showed a touch of shyness, and some of them didn't dare to look at their father.
Seeing his daughter's shy appearance, Zhang Guoji smiled slightly, which he naturally felt.
His Majesty's love for his daughter is really not a little bit, which can be seen from His Majesty's attitude towards himself as a prince. Looking at his daughter's appearance now, Zhang Guoji is relieved that his daughter has not suffered in the palace.
The father and daughter chatted for a while, and Zhang Guoji said with some hesitation: "I entered the palace for my father today, I have something I want to ask you." ”
Empress Zhang smiled: "It's a matter of the Internal Affairs Bureau, right?" ”
Zhang Guoji nodded, and said helplessly: "There are some things I can't do." As you know, although my father reads the books of sages and has ambitions in his heart, his career has not been smooth, so he has never been an official, and he doesn't know much about officialdom. This time, His Majesty asked his father to take charge of the Internal Affairs Office, and there is no bottom in his father's heart! ”
Glancing at her father, Empress Zhang smiled faintly and did not debunk him.
In fact, Empress Zhang knows enough about her father.
His father has always wanted to be an official for so many years, and he is an old official fan. But my father just didn't go well in the imperial examination, let alone the Jinshi examination, and he didn't even get a showman.
This time, with such an opportunity to be a big official, my father didn't want to let it go at all.
But at this moment, Empress Zhang hesitated. Originally, I didn't agree with this matter, but now when I see my father's appearance, I hesitate even more.
I'm afraid that's not a good thing.
The way my father is now, I'm afraid he will really mess up the affairs of the Internal Affairs Office. If that time comes, I'm afraid my father and my mother's family will be in trouble.
After thinking about it, Empress Zhang stubbornly said: "If my father is not sure, it is better to ask Your Majesty for resignation." Father don't worry, Your Majesty's daughter will go and say. With His Majesty's love for his daughter, I believe he will definitely agree. ”
Listening to Empress Zhang's words, Zhang Guoji's face was a little embarrassed.
He just wanted to ask his daughter for some solutions, but he didn't really want to give up his position as Minister of Internal Affairs.
If he wanted to really give up, Zhang Guoji would not have entered the palace to find his daughter. Now hearing his daughter say this, he is a little unhappy in his heart, and at the same time even more embarrassed.
"Being a father just hasn't got started, as long as you get started, you will definitely be able to get familiar with it quickly." Zhang Guoji smiled and said, "You don't have to worry. ”
After listening to her father's words, Empress Zhang became even more worried.
But looking at her father's appearance, Empress Zhang also knew that she might not be able to convince him. It seems that she can consider starting from His Majesty's side, but thinking of His Majesty's appearance, Empress Zhang is not very confident.
"What did Dad enter the palace for this time?" Empress Zhang asked.
Since there is no way to persuade my father to give up, I can only help him get things done as much as possible, and don't mess things up before I even start.
So Empress Zhang directly asked the essence of the matter.
Zhang Guoji thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Here's the thing......"
So Zhang Guoji told Queen Zhang what happened to him. He's in an awkward position right now.
After saying this, Zhang Guoji said helplessly: "You also saw it, my father doesn't know what to do now." ”
Hearing these words, Empress Zhang's eyes widened, her mouth opened slightly, and she said in disbelief: "How can they do this?" ”
In fact, what Queen Zhang was thinking about in her heart was not this, what she was thinking about was how could these people be so shameless?
How dare they do such a thing?
This is too bold, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will punish them?
Seeing her father looking at her expectantly, Empress Zhang was a little anxious, because she didn't know what to do.
In Empress Zhang's mind, Zhu Youxiao's figure flashed for the first time.
Empress Zhang felt that she should ask His Majesty, even if His Majesty did not give her a solution, she could let His Majesty take back his life and not let his father do this.
Thinking of this, Empress Zhang made up her mind and said, "Father, go back first, and I will send you a message later." ”
Zhang Guoji listened to Queen Zhang's words, and his face was a little puzzled, but he also knew that there was no way to continue to ask, so he said, "Then I'll go back first." ”
Empress Zhang nodded and instructed: "The next time I enter the palace and bring my mother too, I miss her a little." ”
When she said this, Queen Zhang was a little embarrassed, and she looked like a little daughter.
Hearing his daughter mention her biological mother, Zhang Guoji felt warm in his heart, nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
After Zhang Guoji left, Empress Zhang thought about it and called Wang An over.
Since the last incident, Wang An and Kunning Palace have been relatively close. Because of this relationship, Empress Zhang also trusted Wang An, so she decided to ask him first.
After Wang An listened to Queen Zhang's words, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
Wang An didn't expect that so many people wanted to stuff people into the Internal Affairs Office, but if they were really stuffed in, then the Internal Affairs Office would start to bend the law before it was established.
Nepotism, forming a party for personal gain, who dares to do this?
So this thing is absolutely not going to work.
But if you don't agree, then there will be many people who will be offended, including officials in the court, as well as nobles and relatives.
In such a situation, the errand becomes difficult to do, and it is not possible to offend people, but also to reject them all, which is a head-scratching thing.
But Wang An also knew that there was no way to do this. Because these are two things that are contrary to each other, those who do not want to offend them will use them, and those who do not use them will offend them.
The opposite of a thing has no choice at all. Wang Anxin was also anxious.
Glancing at Queen Zhang, Wang An said: "Queen Mother, do you think the old slave should ask the emperor?" ”
Empress Zhang nodded, "In this case, then go and ask Your Majesty!" ”
After saying this, Empress Zhang stood up and walked towards the Qianqing Palace.
Empress Zhang didn't have any burden in her heart, in her opinion, this was a small thing. With His Majesty's liking for himself, this is not a problem at all.
"Emperor, the queen is here." Chen Hong came to Zhu Youxiao's side and bowed down and said.
Zhu Youxiao nodded.
In fact, Zhu Youxiao had already guessed that Zhang Guoji naturally had something to do when he entered the palace, and even because of something, Zhu Youxiao knew about it.
This matter is difficult to do, so it is not strange for Empress Zhang to come to her.
Putting down the carving knife in his hand, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Let the queen come in." ”
On Zhu Youxiao's other hand, there is a wood carving model that has not yet been carved, which should be a woman from the outline.
Zhu Youxiao carefully put away the wood carving model, put it in a wooden box covered with red velvet, and then gently buttoned the lid.
After Zhu Youxiao did all this, Empress Zhang also walked in from outside.
