What happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival was soon known to the Queen Mother, and she was also anxious that the little emperor did not seem to be interested in the concubine candidates selected by himself and his ministers, but was very interested in the two 'old loves', which would not only affect the plan for the royal family, but also affect the little emperor's personal affairs. In fact, Empress Dowager Yang is also very self-aware, she knows that her governing ability is limited, but in order to help the little emperor clear the obstacles to pro-government in Japan, she still listens to the government at the suggestion of the strict and temporarily puts the little emperor aside.

However, the initial affairs of Jiangnan were complicated, and many major matters needed to be personally reviewed by the Empress Dowager Yang, although there were ministers and auxiliary ministers, she still felt very difficult, and major matters were also transferred to the little emperor to deal with, but she still felt powerless. And she also knows very well that the little emperor has been away from the court for a long time, which will not only make him neglect government affairs, but also make the ministers misunderstand and give birth to some things for no reason.

At present, Empress Dowager Yang has been listening to politics for nearly half a year, and according to her plan, she wants to let the little emperor marry this year, and then pro-government. But this bear child not only does not appreciate it, but also gives birth to so many things, and the slang girl sings those obscene clichés in public, which is really unseemly, if it is spread out to damage the royal reputation, not to mention, it will also say that the little emperor is absurd and brings bad world. This kind of ugly thing naturally can't be done by outsiders, and the Empress Dowager Yang can only summon Ying Jieyan and ask him to go and admonish him, who made him the emperor!

As the saying goes, 'knowing a son is better than a father', although Ying Jieyan is an emperor, he also played the role of a father in his growth. For the little emperor who watched him grow up, he naturally knew his temper very well, he had many advantages, and his personality was also prominent, and he was often very stubborn about the things he recognized, that is, he admitted death, and it was very difficult for others to persuade him to change his mind. Therefore, in order to make this happen, it is necessary to find another way, otherwise it will not succeed.

Ying Jieyan pondered for a long time, and he thought that although the little emperor was strong, he was not without weaknesses. One is filial piety, thinking that he has been in power since he was five years old, controlling the overall situation, the queen mother let him 'cultivate', the little emperor obediently handed over power, left the court, this is not filial piety is absolutely impossible;

So, Ying Jieyan decided to use this to persuade the little emperor to follow the arrangement of the queen mother and the ministers, and pulled Liu Huang as an accompaniment, preparing one to sing red face and one white face, and take it down. And some people wrote to ask Wenchen to preside over military affairs, and it was not his nonsense to be in charge of the Privy Council, but it was just that Qu Gao and Widow were not as serious as he said.

But the development of things was beyond the expectations of the two, as soon as they opened their mouths, they were blocked back by the little emperor's decadent words, not only showed indifference to state affairs, but even discouraged and wanted to abandon the country, and open up a new world, and no longer wanted to be at their mercy and entanglement in court affairs, and went to live a happy life. What the little emperor said was sincere, and he couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while, so their plan was completely ruined, and they made themselves nervous, and they didn't dare to say what they wanted to say......

"Alas, and Father, this is better than blue!" Seeing this, Liu Di shook his head with a smile and sighed lightly.

"yes, I'm old." Ying Jieyan also said with a wry smile. I wanted to make a roundabout attack, but I was turned invisible by the little emperor, and I fell into passivity, thinking that the master was being swept away by the apprentice, and I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Both of them are my masters, and they are also my confidants. I have always relied on it, and I never hide things from each other, but the two of them joined hands to calculate me, which really shouldn't be! Zhao Yu seemed to have been wronged, but still said with a cold face.

"The minister has the trust of His Majesty, and I hope you will forgive me!" Ying Jieyan listened to the little emperor and bowed his hand.

"Sir, how dare I bear it!" Zhao Yu hurriedly returned the salute, and then quickly got up and poured tea for the two.

"Although I am suspected of bullying the king with my father in this matter, I am not a little selfish, it is all for the sake of Your Majesty!" Liu Huang Shili said.

"I see that you and the others are selfish!" Zhao Yu said angrily.

"Your Majesty, don't wronged me, how can your ministers ever have selfish intentions?" Liu Huang screamed when he heard this.

"Since there is no selfishness, why is there no one in the Ru clan among the candidates for the show, and there is no woman in the gentleman clan, isn't it selfish!" Zhao Hao asked rhetorically.

"This ...... Your Majesty, the school-age women in the minister's family are all married, but the minister refuses! Liu Huang didn't expect that the selfishness that the little emperor said was this, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Your Majesty, the sons and daughters of the minister's family are all married, and only the granddaughter of one or five years old among the grandchildren has no marriage contract, if Your Majesty is willing to wait a few more years, the minister will send her to the palace as a candidate." Ying Jieyan listened and said.

"You must have gotten the news, so you set a marriage contract with the school-age women in the clan and come to prevaricate with me!" Zhao Hao snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, there is no such thing!" Liu Huang waved his hand again and again, but he didn't know how to explain.

"Your Majesty, why do you have to wait for the daughter of the family to enter the palace, is there any rumor?" Ying Jieyan saw that the little emperor didn't look like he was messing around, and he was very strange.

"You and the others, I know the roots, they are loyal to the court, and they are highly respected and erudite, and the children of the family will not be wrong. So why do you need to pick and choose, I just set it up as a post, why bother so much, and bother the two gentlemen to come to advise. Zhao Yu sighed helplessly.

"Your Majesty trusts the ministers so much, which makes the ministers panic." Ying Jieyan and the two glanced at each other, both of them felt that it was too ridiculous, and he saluted the little emperor and said, "The show girls selected this time are all women from white families selected by various state capitals, and they are excellent in both virtue and talent. And the five show girls who passed the re-election are even more famous families, with good faces, outstanding talents, virtuous and virtuous virtues, can no one enter the eyes of His Majesty? ”

"Alas......"

"Your Majesty must not be willful, the minister listened to the Queen Mother's words, after the moon sacrifice, His Majesty wanted to release more than ten beautiful girls out of the palace, is it all unsatisfactory?" Liu Huang saw that the little emperor just sighed, and persuaded again.

"What do you want me to say?" Zhao Yu still said with a bitter face.

"Your Majesty is not too picky, these show girls are all carefully selected, won't they be so unbearable?" Looking at the appearance of the little emperor, Ying Jieyan's heart became more and more bottomless, and he frowned and asked.

"It's not that I'm picky, both of you know that my food and clothing have always been simple and vulgar, and the banquet after the moon sacrifice that day, although the food and drink can't be said to be exquisite, but it is much better than what I usually use, but many people can't eat it and it's hard to swallow. I let them out of the palace for their sake, so as not to be aggrieved in the palace. Zhao Hao hurriedly explained.

"This ...... His Majesty's words are true, but it would be too hasty to decide to stay. "The little emperor's reason seems to be sufficient, but you must know that even the women of wealthy families do not have a clean plate to eat at every meal, especially when drinking and feasting, they are all shallow to taste to appear reserved. And the little emperor used the standards of the army to ask them not to allow leftovers, which was really difficult, Liu Huang said.

"Sloppy? Once they are selected as the queen, they are the mothers of the world, representing the royal family, with fine clothes and food every day, but they want the people to be diligent and thrifty, how to convince the people of the world. Zhao Hao asked rhetorically.

"Your Majesty, this may just be because it is the first time to dine with Your Majesty, they can't help but be nervous, and they don't understand Your Majesty's rules, which is also forgivable, Your Majesty doesn't have to be serious about this trivial matter." Ying Jieyan also felt that what he said was not unreasonable, but he must not follow what he said at this moment, otherwise things would not be able to be said.

"It's a good thing that Your Majesty chooses the concubine to be stricter, but you can't be too harsh." Liu Huang saw that the little emperor wanted to open his mouth to refute, so he preemptively said, "I have seen the portrait of the daughter of the Cheng family, which can be described as beautiful as a flower, and I heard that she has been taught since childhood, is erudite and talented, and is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and learns to run a family with her mother, it must be good!" ”

"Hehe, did Governor Liu accept the benefits of their family, so he helped him lobby so hard!" Zhao Yu listened and pointed at Liu Huang and said.

"Your Majesty, where do you say this, although I and my ancestors were ministers in the same palace, they have never had a deep friendship, and there is no way to talk about receiving benefits!" Liu Huang was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly defended himself.

"I look at the daughter of the Wu family, her appearance is beautiful, and she is good at singing and dancing. But virtue is far behind, not only likes extravagance, but also likes extravagance, and selfishness is too heavy. If he is selected, the harem is only afraid that it will not catch fire, and it will be smoked every day, and it is not easy for me to earn some silver, so I really can't afford to raise it. Zhao Hao sighed and shook his head when he heard this.

"Your Majesty is only in a hurry with him for a while, how do you know, don't listen to it and believe it!" Ying Jieyan was strange, how did the little emperor know this, and he couldn't help but suspect that he had listened to the slander, and frowned and reminded.

"My husband once taught that to know people is to observe their deeds and listen to their words, and not to make judgments. I only found out after listening to my husband's instructions and looking closely. If Mr. had seen what he had done at the time, he would have been deeply dissatisfied. Zhao Yu said.

"Your Majesty is looking carefully!" Although Ying Jieyan was choked back by the little emperor, he also knew that his ability to know people was extraordinary, so he could only sigh and say, "The minister sees that the daughter of the Lei family is good, she was born in a family of cultivation and reading, and her life must be simple and good at running a family." ”

"What Mr. said is good, but the daughter of the Lei family is one of the few people who eat all the meals, but I heard that she is good at business, and she got rid of poverty and became rich in a few years after presiding over the family, and her family is well-off, but she is very suitable for my spleen and stomach." Zhao Yu nodded again and again.

"There is still such a thing, then it must not be done!" Ying Jieyan listened to it, but waved his hand again and again.

"Why is that?" Zhao Hao asked rhetorically.

"If you are good at business, you must be good at calculation, and Your Majesty doesn't want the harem to become a place for merchants!" Ying Jie Yan thought for a moment and explained. He knew very well that the little emperor was good enough at collecting money, and if both of them were so good, he didn't dare to think about what the Great Song Dynasty harem would become.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and all the ministers think that the daughter of the Wu family is the best, and she is the first choice of the queen, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" Liu Huang's supporting role is really qualified, and he was worried that the little emperor would mention it again, so he immediately didn't say anything, and directly skipped the other two and took out the trump card.

"Your Majesty, the three sages of the Wu family are loyal to the country, pro-government and love the people, and they are actually ministers of the country. Such a family upbringing daughter must not be wrong, and the minister also heard that he was virtuous and virtuous, and he was a good housekeeper. Ying Jieyan also hurriedly agreed. And this time he also learned to be smart, no longer just saying that he had heard about it, but adding other people's comments to increase the persuasiveness.

"Sir's right, as far as I can see, it is true, and it is difficult to single out what is not. But ......" Zhao Hao touched his chin and said thoughtfully, but he was interrupted before he finished speaking.

"Since Your Majesty can't see anything, it must be good, and the Queen Mother is very satisfied with it, so don't be picky." Ying Jieyan grabbed the conversation.

"Sir, after listening to what I have said, it's not too late to make a judgment!" Zhao Hao was a little funny, how could this old man be more anxious than himself, and he was not marrying a daughter-in-law, "It is precisely because he behaves too calmly and decently that I suspect that he already knows my habits and likes and dislikes in advance." The Wu family is huge, and there are many celebrities, many of whom have old ties with officials in the DPRK and China, who heard about my privacy, and then deliberately guided them to join me. ”

"Your Majesty is reasonable, if this is really the case, then the Wu family has another deep meaning in sending it to be elected." Ying Jieyan also became nervous when he heard it, you must know that it is a big mistake to probe the emperor's privacy, and it also shows that he has ill intentions, coupled with the huge power of the Wu family, and the officials in the DPRK and China are intertwined, then it will inevitably form a group of relatives, if there is cooperation in the palace, it will definitely have the ability to influence the government and affect the emperor's judgment.

"Yes, you can't be unguarded, this matter still needs to be examined in detail, don't be careless!" Liu Huang also became cautious when he heard this, and nodded.

"I said that you can't be in a hurry in the future, you must be cautious, and you still have to persuade the Queen Mother more after you go back, don't make a big mistake because of a small loss, and you will be in a hurry for a while!" Zhao Yu said when he saw this.

"Alas, so the daughter of the Chen family is the most in line with Your Majesty's wishes, isn't it?" Ying Jieyan listened to it and felt that it was not right, and then thought about it and said in doubt.

"Sir's right." Zhao Yu admitted this time, "Chen Shu has known me since childhood, and his father and uncle are also familiar with me, so they can be said to know the roots. But...... Alas! ”

"Why does Your Majesty sigh?" Liu Huang listened to His Majesty's long sigh with a lot of helplessness and sadness, and asked urgently.

"The Chen brothers are all important ministers in the court, my confidants and cronies, and they are virtuous ministers and good generals who can be used. Once he is established, his brother will inevitably resign and be honored according to the rules, then the country will inevitably lose its pillars, which will make it difficult for me! Zhao Hao sighed again.

"Your Majesty Shengming, when the previous re-election, the Queen Mother also loved the daughter of the Chen family very much, but it was precisely because of this matter that she couldn't bear to eliminate it. And His Majesty is distressed by this, but the minister is deeply pleased with Youmingjun, and he will definitely persuade the Queen Mother to give him the title! Ying Jieyan was also very heartbroken when he saw this, and thought about it......
