Chapter 123: Rag Doll
Although all the members of the cabinet have problems of one kind or another, Zhu Youzhen is still very satisfied with the fact that they are not confused in major matters.
Of course, Zhu Youzhen's strength and the life experience of the two generations before and after made him have an absolute crushing advantage over the elders, and the accumulation of knowledge for hundreds of years in later generations made it impossible for the elders to deceive him.
Of course, the main reason for this is that his experience and knowledge in later generations have helped a lot, if he is a feudal emperor who is longer than the hands of women in the palace, it is estimated that he will not do better than Chongzhen in history.
Fortunately, Zhu Youzhen is not Zhu Youzhen, although he is not a history professional, but as a Ming fan, he still has a certain understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty, and he knows what kind of virtue the scholar in the feudal era is.
Nodding to the cabinet ministers, Zhu Youzhen issued two holy decrees, one for Zhu Xieyuan and one for Zheng Ruxin.
The share given to Zhu Xieyuan was a commendation and promotion, and Zhu Xieyuan was promoted to the governor of Sichuan and Guizhou, awarded the title of secretary of the military department, and led the military and political power of Sichuan and Guizhou.
There should be no chaos in letting Zhu Xieyuan lead the governor of Sichuan and Guizhou, lead the troops to sit in Guizhou, and change the land and return to the stream.
As for the Ganzhou prefect Zheng Ruxin's part, he was ordered to go to Beijing as soon as possible to face the saint, and Zhu Youzhen always had to see him for such an important matter, if he was just like Zhao Kuo, Ma Tan and the like, he would only talk about it, and Zhu Youzhen would be replaced as soon as possible.
The ministers of the cabinet had no opinion on this holy decree, and after using the seal, they soon sent a letter to the political secretary, one to Guizhou, and the other to Jiangxi.
After discussing the matter of changing the land and returning it to the stream, Zhu Youzhen gave an explanation of the reward after the counterinsurgency in Guizhou.
The new army is easy to say, the Generalissimo's Office has a separate system of rewards and punishments for military merits, but the Ming army in the southwest needs to be rewarded according to the old experience.
Although the head of the rebel army is not valuable, and the main force of the counterinsurgency is still the new army, but the practice of promotion and silver rewards must still be given enough, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and Zhu Youzhen also attaches great importance to his reputation, especially in the army.
"Han Qing will work with Sun Qing to come up with a charter as soon as possible, if it is difficult to count the merits in Guizhou for a while, you can send a part of the reward silver first, and the New Year is coming soon, don't chill the hearts of the soldiers."
Han Guang and Sun Chengzong hurriedly stepped forward.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and after discussing the affairs of Guizhou, there are not many things in the court that Zhu Youzhen needs to worry about personally.
Soon after a few more matters were decided, today's Qianqing Palace Imperial Meeting came to an end.
The matter in Guizhou was settled, and Zhu Youzhen was also a lot happier, and he did not drag this rebellion into the period of the Apocalypse, which saved a lot of money for the imperial court.
After sending away the ministers who still needed to return to the cabinet council, Zhu Youzhen did not stay in the Qianqing Palace anymore, but returned to Kunning Palace.
This is the first time Zhu Youzhen has spent the New Year in the palace, and it is also the first time that he is passing through the New Year in this era.
Celebrating the New Year with the soldiers, although it also has a different flavor, but in the cold winter, Zhu Youzhen still wants his wife and children to have a festive New Year with Zhou Wanyan.
Of course, Zhu Youzhen does not have a child of his own, because Zhu Youzhen deliberately chose the date of intercourse, Zhou Wanyan is not pregnant yet.
In this regard, Zhou Wanyan was quite anxious, and it was useless to see the imperial doctor many times, and the imperial doctors didn't understand the safe period of ovulation, so they could only excuse the young nobleman, so there was no need to worry, and he prescribed some medicine to nourish the body.
Of course, for these contraceptive knowledge, Zhu Youzhen naturally did not tell Zhou Wanyan that more is better than less, although Zhu Youzhen is the Son of Heaven, but the woman cries, and the Son of Heaven has no choice.
Although Zhu Youzhen has no children of his own, he still has a child in the palace, that is, his unlucky brother Zhu Youxiao's only daughter left in the world, Princess Zhu Shuyuan of Changle.
Zhu Shuyuan is the last child of Zhu Youxiao, and in the original history, this child died in November of the seventh year of the Apocalypse.
But I don't know if it was the butterfly effect brought by Zhu Youzhen, the child survived.
In fact, in history, Zhu Shuyuan should have died of gas poisoning, but after Zhu Youzhen crossed, the floor heating system of the harem was upgraded, and the renovated floor heating system naturally eliminated the hidden danger of gas poisoning, which is the fundamental reason why Zhu Shuyuan has survived until now.
Because Zhu Shuyuan is the only child left by Zhu Youxiao, and the only child in the entire harem.
So whether it is Zhang Yan, Zhou Wanyan, or other palace concubines, they all regard her as the pearl of their palms.
Zhu Youzhen also liked her very much, and personally named her Princess Changle.
Zhu Shuyuan often plays in the palace, which makes the cold Forbidden City more popular.
The Forbidden City, especially the harem, is cold and strict, and Zhu Youzhen has experienced it when he visited the Forbidden City in later generations.
In which era, as soon as it was past four o'clock in the afternoon, the Forbidden City began to prepare to close, and there were many supernatural events on the Internet, although it was difficult to distinguish the authenticity, but Zhu Youzhen was a little uncomfortable as soon as he arrived in the harem.
And this is still the premise that Zhu Youzhen asked Zhou Wanyan to change some palace rules with Zhang Yan, Zhu Youzhen has the meaning of treating the palace people leniently, and Zhou Wanyan naturally wants to spread Zhu Youzhen's voice of benevolence and righteousness in the palace.
So now in the palace, although there are still many rules, there are few killings, and Zhu Youzhen has only one woman so far, Zhou Wanyan, and she usually doesn't stay in the harem much, and there is basically no competition for favor among palace people.
There is less right and wrong, more tolerance, and compared with the previous dynasty, the atmosphere in the palace is much better.
Moreover, under the guidance of Zhu Youzhen, because of the large number of women in the palace, Zhou Wanyan also held some activities that are beneficial to physical and mental health, such as embroidery, shuttlecock kicking, tea art, and flower arrangement.
In addition, Zhu Youzhen will make money, have abundant money, and the supply of rewards in the palace is continuous, and the palace people in Zhu Youzhen's era can be said to be the happiest palace people in the world.
Walking on the way to the harem, the laughter and laughter that came from time to time around made the yin qi of the harem dissipate a lot, and Zhu Youzhen's mood also improved a lot.
When he came to Kunning Palace, Zhu Youzhen found that Zhou Wanyan was not alone, Zhang Yan and Princess Changle were also there, Zhang Yan and Zhou Wanyan didn't know what to follow, and the room was full of laughter.
Seeing Zhu Youzhen coming, everyone made a big salute, and after sitting down, Zhu Youzhen asked Wang Chengen to take out a small rag doll, and Princess Changle's eyes immediately couldn't leave.
Zhou Wanyan and Zhang Yan were no longer surprised by the novelties that Zhu Youzhen took out from time to time, but they were still shocked by this somewhat realistic doll.
Although Zhang Yan and Zhou Wanyan are women, they have heard of witch Gu, and such a realistic doll naturally reminds the two of them of witch Gu.
Without waiting for Zhang Yan's advice, Zhou Wanyan immediately knelt down, and the originally lively Kunning Palace immediately became like an ice cave.
