Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Qian Family

When Zhu Qizhen came to the Jiaotai Palace, it seemed that he had come to another world.

In the main hall, red candles of various styles are burning.

In addition, the red curtain arranged in the palace has a sense of temptation. Zhu Qizhen came inside, but felt that his heartbeat had missed several beats.

After Zhu Qizhen walked in, he saw many eunuchs and palace maids waiting on the side. There is no intention of quitting at all.

Zhu Qizhen immediately said, "Let's go out." ”

Some of the eunuchs went out, but two of the maids remained.

Zhu Qizhen frowned and said, "Didn't you hear what I said?" ”

A palace maid said cautiously: "According to the rules, the slaves and maids must stay and serve. ”

Zhu Qizhen also knows this rule, but he has no preference for being watched. said lightly: "I let you out, just go out." ”

Zhu Qizhen is in power, and naturally has developed some momentum, which is not something that these two little palace maids can compete with. The two little palace maids glanced at each other and naturally retreated.

And crossed the high threshold of the Jiaotai Palace, and closed the door.

Zhu Qizhen walked through the layers of curtains and came to Qian's side, and he didn't say anything, but he could feel that the little deer in front of him seemed to be nervous, and his breathing was out of rhythm. It's messy.

Zhu Qizhen stretched out his hand and lifted the hijab.

Immediately know why it is said that looking at a beauty under the lamp, the more you look at it, the better it looks.

However, because of the lack of light at night in ancient times, the light of the red candle and the red furnishings of this room complement each other. It was reflected on Qian's face, as if it had been covered with a layer of rouge.

And because of the change of light, this color is a three-dimensional outline, which was originally seven or eight points of beauty, and it has a very effective effect all of a sudden.

Sure enough, whether the person is beautiful or not depends on how it is lighted.

However, the Qian family can stand out from countless women and be valued by the Empress Dowager, and her appearance is naturally first-class.

In Zhu Qizhen's opinion, Qian's appearance had a softness in it, and she looked up at Zhu Qizhen with a sense of timidity.

For a while, Zhu Qizhen felt pity in his heart.

Zhu Qizhen looked at Qian's face carefully under the lamp, and seemed to feel that the light was softer for a moment, no, it wasn't that the light was softer, but it was Qian's blushing.

Shame welled up, and even his neck turned red.

The sound of "cooing" reached Zhu Qizhen's ears.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but chuckle, it seemed that Zhu Qizhen's smile stimulated the Qian family, and I don't know if the Qian family was annoyed and angry, but inspired the courage and said, "Your Majesty, are you here to see the concubine's joke?" ”

Qian's words carried a feeling of softness and weakness. Although it is official, it has a soft meaning. When Zhu Qizhen heard this, he was in his heart

The first feeling is that the Qian family must not be allowed to quarrel with others, otherwise it will definitely be impossible to fight.

Zhu Qizhen smiled: "Didn't you eat, eat quickly." ”

Qian Shi fanned his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't drunk a glass of wine yet." ”

Zhu Qizhen smiled lightly, took the wine jug himself, poured two glasses of wine, and drank with the Qian family. Zhu Qizhen immediately said, "You can eat now, right?" ”

Qian said: "Please use it first." ”

Zhu Qizhen is not as good as the Qian family, Zhu Qizhen has never wronged himself, there is a small kitchen in the Qianqing Palace, and whatever he wants to eat, he will use it immediately as soon as he is ordered.

In particular, the popularity of briquette stoves, this kind of small kitchen in the palace, has the feeling of being all over the palace.

When he was dealing with business in the Qianqing Palace, he had already used some of it, so he was naturally not hungry. But the Qian family didn't dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi, and she must wait for Zhu Qizhen to move the chopsticks first before she dared to put down the chopsticks.

Zhu Qizhen just took two bites and stopped eating. But he didn't put down his chopsticks.

Because Zhu Qizhen knew that once he put down his chopsticks, no matter whether Qian was hungry or not, he would immediately stop chopsticks. This kind of rule is also common among the big families of later generations.

And the palace is the place with the strictest rules in the world.

Zhu Qizhen is also used to this kind of rules, big and small. Zhu Qizhen himself can ignore many rules, but he knows that he can't bag others to ignore such rules.

It's not about loving her, it's about hurting her.

Qian is still young, and he can't see Zhu Qizhen's thoughts, but he just sees that Zhu Qizhen doesn't drop chopsticks. She was like a chicken chattering rice, and her chopsticks fell frequently, and it seemed that she was really hungry.

Qian was busy for almost a day.

Zhu Qizhen doesn't have many requirements for etiquette, and Zhu Qizhen has experienced many ceremonies since he was a child, and Zhu Qizhen himself can't count them.

Although the Empress Dowager was in power, she did not come to the court, that is to say, all major ceremonial occasions were attended by Zhu Qizhen.

He's used to it.

But the Qian family is different, what is really true today is that lest you take a wrong step, say a wrong word, be careful every inch, and dare not mess up at all.

At this moment, he was alone in front of Zhu Qizhen, but he relaxed a little.

Zhu Qizhen saw that Qian had almost eaten, so he put down his chopsticks.

As soon as Qian saw Zhu Qizhen drop his chopsticks, he immediately put down his chopsticks.

Zhu Qizhen asked, "Xin Tong, what is your girl's name?" ”

Qian said: "The concubine's name, Wan'er." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Qian Wan'er, good name." ”

Qian said: "The concubine doesn't dare to be a concubine. ”

Zhu Qizhen looked at Qian's immature figure, and sighed slightly in his heart, but he had a sense of crime. But something had to be done.

Many people seem to think that they can use blood from elsewhere to disguise their redness, but they don't know how many old eunuchs and female officials and a pair of eyes are in the Daming Palace

, as if he had a fiery eye.

Whether there is a broken body or not, that can be seen at a glance.

Zhu Qizhen didn't do anything, he didn't have anything to do. But Qian Wan'er is about to have an accident, even the Queen Mother has to ask a clear understanding.

It is even related to whether Qian Wan'er can gain a foothold in the palace.

This is not something that Zhu Qizhen wants to do or doesn't want to do.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Do you know, why did I push the empress dowager and accept two concubines at the same time? ”

Qian Wan'er said: "The concubine doesn't know. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "But it's an old thing, the first emperor abolished it, do you know?" ”

This was more than ten years ago, and the Sun family was still the queen mother, although some people had private legends, but few people mentioned it.

And the Qian family is relatively far away from the decision-making circle of the imperial court, so it is naturally unclear.

Zhu Qizhen slowly said what happened back then, Zhu Qizhen said: "The first emperor also said later, this is a juvenile matter." The Empress Dowager also thought that this was a hateful thing done by the first emperor. ”

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are still inextricably knotted in this matter."

"I don't want to do the same thing, the eldest son is better to be the emperor's concubine, which is a lot less messy. So before the queen gives birth to a concubine, I will not take a concubine. ”

Zhu Qizhen's thinking on this matter is more political.

He had to admit one thing, it was actually difficult for him to shake some of the Ming Dynasty's systems, especially the primogeniture inheritance system, because Zhu Qizhen himself was the beneficiary of this system.

In many cases, I have to admit that the elder system can be regarded as a stable political system of the imperial court, otherwise, like Li Tang, every time the throne is handed over, there will be a civil strife, which will cause great damage to the vitality of the imperial court.

Some things are better decided early. With the logic of politicians' behavior, it cannot be shaken, or after it is shaken, there are not many interests, it is better to abide by it.

In this matter, Zhu Qizhen also felt that the transfer of the throne should be smooth and smooth, so don't make any trouble.

But when Qian heard it, it was a different feeling. She saluted and said: "Thank you for your majesty's love, but the concubine is the queen, and it is also the responsibility of the concubine to make the descendants of the imperial family prosperous-----

"Alright." Zhu Qizhen didn't need to listen to it to know what Qian wanted to say.

Women have always been duplicitous, and the Qian family said that they wanted to choose a concubine for Zhu Qizhen and reproduce children for the imperial family, but the joy on their faces almost jumped out.

Of course, he has fought a lot with old foxes like Yang Shiqi, and then he looks at the Qian family is too tender, and even lying is on his face.

"Since the queen knows this responsibility, let's make a gift to Zhou Gong with me." Zhu Qizhen said with a hook at the corner of his mouth. Get up and take a few steps closer. Qian Wan'er almost jumped up, took a few steps back, and was so nervous that she didn't even know how to walk.
