Chapter 154: After the Concert

Li Qiusheng put on the dragon robe tremblingly, and went to the main hall under the leadership of Qian Yi, who shouted loudly: "The emperor has arrived, and hundreds of officials kneel to greet him." ”

The civil and military officials snorted, knelt on the ground, and shouted loudly, "The ministers see the emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”

Li Qiusheng was startled, sat on the dragon chair, and said loudly with courage: "No courtesy, all the secretaries are flat." ”

Emperor Xie and the military officials stood up together and stood on both sides. Qian Yi shouted loudly: "There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat." ”

His Royal Highness's ministers were in turmoil, and the Taifu headed by the civil officials came out and said: "The emperor has first ascended to the great treasure, and the world is decided, and he should be sealed as soon as possible to lay a thousand-year-old foundation for the royal family." ”

Li Qiusheng was stunned for a moment, and swept Zhang Shaoqing and Qu Ziru. Qu Ziru shook his head. Li Qiusheng strengthened his courage, "I am still young, this matter will be discussed later, and the national affairs will be played first." ”

"Young, the emperor has been twenty and six, if it is someone else, he will have a group of children, the emperor used to worry about the day in order to remove the disaster of the court, and he had no intention of family affairs, this minister can be understood, and now the court is stable, the people are healthy, for the foundation of the Chu State, it should be sealed as soon as possible to calm the hearts of the people." Taifu was still not in a hurry, and said slowly.

Li Qiusheng looked at Qu Ziru helplessly, saw that his face turned blue with anger, and shook his head again and again, so he said loudly: "Let me think about it, and make a decision in a few days." ”

"How many days will it take, but will it be okay in three days? It is better for the ministers to paint the portraits of some official daughters first, and submit them three days later for the emperor to choose personally. Taifu is still pressing step by step.

Zhang Shaoqing's face sank, "What an old man, he is not satisfied with being a master, and he still wants to be a national master." ”

Qu Ziru's face turned blue with anger, and he just wanted to refute it. Zhang Shaoqing swept him and said, "If Taifu is idle and has nothing to do, then prepare first!" ”

Li Qiusheng nodded again and again, "This matter will be discussed later, is there anything else to do?" If not, retreat. ”

There is a Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household handed over two copies of the book, the Ministry of Rites is the arrangement of the Lantern Festival in the first month, please ask the emperor to take a look, the Ministry of Household is the spring ploughing is coming, please how to arrange the distribution of seeds to the people.

Qian Yi accepted the fold and shouted loudly: "There is nothing to retreat from." ”

The civil and military officials left one after another, Zou Ping swept Li Qiusheng, stopped talking, sighed, and turned to go down to the hall. Seeing that many officials were complimenting Taifu, they were patting him on the back. Zou Ping sighed, left alone, and left in the official sedan chair.

Zhang Shaoqing went to the court, and then ordered Shi Zhong to secretly go to the Qi State with a letter to welcome Jun Mo to return to the court.

Jun Mowen saw Zhang Shaoqing's letter halfway, opened it and was furious, good you are a good thing, I promoted you to be the prince because you did not join the regent's party, I didn't expect you to be dissatisfied, since this is the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

He said to Shi Zhong with a calm face: "Day and night, return to China immediately, I want to see how capable that old man is." ”

Zhang Shaoqing was anxious, in the past two days, every day has been an excerpt of hundreds of officials requesting the sealing of the concubine, looking at a large number of excerpts on the table, there are few excerpts that really talk about political affairs and people's livelihood. Zhang Shaoqing and Qu Ziru finished their instructions on political affairs and people's livelihood, and they couldn't help but feel a headache when they looked at a lot of these twists and turns. sighed, "Your Majesty, why haven't you come back, if you don't come back today, the court won't have to make trouble tomorrow." ”

Thinking of tomorrow's morning dynasty, that too Fu is aggressive, Zhang Shaoqing feels a headache.

Jun Mo asked to hurry up, and finally returned to the palace in the early hours of the morning, and ordered Shi Cheng to secretly send Li Qiusheng back to the Mei Pavilion. Change into the dragon robe crown and stride up to the main hall.

He swept his eyes, and the ministers who were still talking about it just now all knelt on the ground respectfully, shouting long live.

Jun Mowen was silent for a long time before he said coldly: "Flat, no courtesy." There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat. ”

The civil and military officials felt that the emperor was angry today, and the voice was cold and swishing, which made the back cold. There are a large number of officials who want to say good things for Taifu and pat on the back, and they can't help but close their mouths.

Taifu glared at them fiercely, and scolded in his heart, the grass on the wall is useless. He stepped forward boldly and said, "Emperor Qi's ministers have a book. ”

"Oh, what does Taifu have to play?" Jun Mo asked coldly.

Mrs. Zheng's heart trembled, the emperor is so strange today, obviously he was still kind and pleasant a few days ago, why is his tone indifferent today. But there is no turning back when the bow is opened, and for the sake of wealth and power in the future, you can't retreat today no matter what.

So he boldly came out and knelt on the ground, "The minister asked the emperor to seal the queen immediately, so as to calm the hearts of the people in the world." ”

"Oh, if I don't stand up, will the people of the world be unstable, and everyone will want to rebel!"

"The old minister doesn't dare, the old minister is just thinking about the country of Chu, the new emperor ascends the throne, he should immediately stand up and give birth to a dragon heir for the royal family to inherit the good foundation."

"Fart! As a veteran of the two dynasties, you don't want to share worries about the country, you just want to send your daughter to the palace to ensure that your whole family is rich. "You say I'm right or not.

"The old minister was wronged, and the minister was dedicated to the sake of the Chu country, and he had no selfishness. Please ask the emperor to check carefully, and the granddaughter of the old minister is not in these picture scrolls, she has long had a marriage contract with the son of General Huben. ”

Jun Mo was stunned for a moment, his granddaughter didn't want to be sealed, this was not logical, so why did he come forward, there must be something strange about this. So he slowly knocked on the dragon case, "You said that your granddaughter is not in the roster." Then why are you so anxious to stand up? ”

Mrs. Zheng wiped a handful of cold sweat, raised his head, and said confidently: "The old minister is purely for the emperor to share his worries, for the good country of Chu, and for the sake of the successors, but I didn't expect the emperor to misunderstand the old minister." ”

A good one to share worries for the country and think about me. Jun Mowen sneered in his heart. put on a smiling face, "It's me who blames the Taifu, and the Taifu thinks that the daughter of the family is suitable for the queen and is in charge of the harem." ”

Mrs. Zheng pondered it, "The minister thinks that the daughter of the senior doctor Zhou Li is gentle and graceful, generous, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and worthy of being the queen." ”

"Oh! Present the portrait for me to see. Jun Mowen said quietly.

Mrs. Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and placed the scroll in the tray on the dragon case, and skillfully pulled out a painting from the middle of the first layer above, "Your Majesty, this is Dr. Zhou's daughter, please check the portrait of Zhou Rong." ”

Jun Mowen opened it and smiled slightly, "More than gorgeous, not dignified enough, not enough to be the mother of the world." Taifu has other candidates. ”

Mrs. Zheng sneered, bowed down and replied, "Fan Wenfang, the daughter of Doctor Zuo Fan Wenzhong, is also dignified and steady, and she can be the honor of the harem. After speaking, he picked up the first volume from the top left and handed it to Jun Mo and asked.

Jun Mowen opened it and took a look, "Dignified and elegant, not bad, but unfortunately not good looking, not worthy of being the queen." ”

Mrs. Zheng wiped the cold sweat on his head, then took out a scroll from the many scrolls and handed it to Jun Mo and asked, "How about the emperor take a look at this painting?" ”

Jun Mowen opened it and nodded, "Dignified and elegant, neat and generous, good looks, smart eyes, and elegant movements." A good candidate. ”

Mrs. Zheng was overjoyed in her heart, and said secretly, the old man's granddaughter was carefully trained, how could she be poor if she was already prepared for this posterior. So he hurriedly said: "Since the emperor agrees, then make her the queen?" ”

Jun Mowen threw the scroll aside, "People are good, but it's a pity that I have already had a wife, we have been married for more than a year, she is my queen, and no woman can compare with her." ”

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she said unwillingly: "The princess is there, why has the old minister never heard that the emperor has married a wife." ”

"When I was wandering outside, I was assassinated many times, she sacrificed her life to save her, if it weren't for her, I would have become a pile of white bones, it was she who blocked the sword mountain frost sword for me, and more than half a year ago, in order to save me, she did not hesitate to poison herself, and now she is suffering from illness and suffering every day, but you are here to force me to be ungrateful, and I am being scolded by the people of the world on the backbone."

The hundreds of officials standing under His Royal Highness were all frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, it turned out that the emperor didn't want to stand up at all, and most of them didn't dare to say anything more.

Only a few power-hungry ministers were still unwilling, and they spoke out together with Mrs. Zheng as the leader, "Since the emperor has already married, the princess has sacrificed a lot for the emperor, and the emperor has decided to make her the queen with affection and justice." The ministers also strongly agreed, but they didn't know where the princess was recuperating now, and when she would be able to recover and accept the emperor's reward. ”

"She is now recuperating at the Divine Doctor's Office, and after three years, when her body recovers, she can return to the court to receive the post-sealing ceremony." Jun Mowen was full of melancholy in his heart and said slowly.

Mrs. Zheng was overjoyed in her heart, "Your Majesty, since the princess will be in three years, and the emperor is in her prime, how can the harem be empty." There is no woman who takes care of the emperor's life! ”

Several other ministers also echoed in unison, "Your Majesty, since the princess can't accompany the emperor, let's seal a few concubines to wait by her side first, and then hold a post-seal ceremony when the princess recovers." ”

Jun Mowen sneered, looking at them with a look of power, and sneered in his heart, "Since this is the case, then send all the women in the album to the palace tomorrow, and wait for me to personally select them." ”

When the minister heard this, he was overjoyed, and he was all overjoyed, and he was thinking about how he could make his daughter get a better position.

Mrs. Zheng was also overjoyed, although the queen is gone, but it is still possible to be a concubine, as long as she can get the favor of the emperor and give birth to a dragon son as soon as possible, the mother will be the queen mother in the future, even if the woman sits on the dignity of the harem, what is the use of a woman in the rivers and lakes, she has no power and no power, and then as long as she moves a little means, not to mention that the throne is difficult to protect, and she doesn't even know how to die. ”

Jun Mo asked the ministers to smile happily, and they all left with smiles on their faces. With a sneer in his heart, he brushed his sleeves and got up.

Zhang Shaoqing and Qu Ziru hurriedly followed up with the Qinzheng Hall and reported the actions of various ministers during this time. Jun Mowen nodded, "I know, the two of you have worked hard during this time, let's go down and have a good rest first!" I know what to do tomorrow. ”

Qu Ziru was silent for a long time, and asked stubbornly: "Your Majesty, Rong Chen asked a word that should not be asked, does the emperor really want to be a beauty pageant and a concubine, and accept the harem." ”

Jun Mowen looked up at him, "Why does Master Qu think that I can't be a concubine and accept the harem." ”

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister just thinks that the emperor is worthy of his wife by doing this?"

Jun Mo asked and smiled slightly, "Then Master Qu thinks that I can be worthy of Shuang'er." ”
