Chapter 82: The Worries of the Royal Family (Part II)

Emperor Zhang was silent for a long time, and said for a long time: "The queen mother, the child also knows that relatives must be suppressed. However, the Dou family is also a relative, and the family is dominant, and no one can control it. In the past few days, the child has taken a closer look, and in the Manchu Dynasty, almost all of them are his cronies, and a few people are also silent, and the child has almost become an ornament! The child thought to himself, if the Ma clan was crowned marquis, the child would have a strong reinforcement, and he could get rid of the Dou clan. ”

Empress Dowager Ma looked sad and shed tears: "The emperor wants to get rid of the Dou clan today because of the strength of the Dou clan, and the Ma clan is the marquis." Tomorrow, the Dou clan will be destroyed, the Ma clan will be prosperous, and the emperor will also destroy the Ma clan. If the emperor cares about his mother's family, he can reward the things outside the Ma family, and don't let him be in charge of the country's sharp weapons! ”

Emperor Zhang sighed: "Then the queen mother teaches the child, the Dou family is the only one, and the child is like a mustard, what should I do?" ”

Empress Dowager Ma lowered her head and thought for a moment, and said: "Back then, the emperor awarded the general, and in front of tens of millions of soldiers, he made the emperor kneel and bow to Geng Gong, and clearly wanted to leave Geng Gong to the emperor for use. When the first emperor died, it was also said that Geng Gong was resourceful, loyal, and could be reused, so why should the emperor forget? ”

Emperor Zhang was indignant: "Queen Mother, the child awarded Geng Gong as a cavalry captain, but in fact, he has good intentions. Riding the lieutenant in charge of the tiger camp, inspecting the palace, although the position is not obvious, but it is very important, retreating can protect the palace, and entering can attack the traitors. The tiger camp has 5,000 troops, if it is commanded by Geng Gong, wouldn't it be better to have wings for the tiger? However, Geng Gong went to work for three years on the grounds that Ding was worried about the system. Just imagine, once the Tiger Camp is mastered by the Dou family, the child will be tied hand and foot, even if he is ambitious, it will be difficult to exert half a point! ”

Empress Dowager Ma was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "How can Geng Gong be like this? Isn't there a disappointment to the emperor? The first emperor said that although Geng Gong was young, he was ambitious and ambitious, and he fought in the Western Regions before and was indomitable. Did he think that the official position rewarded by the emperor was too small? Empress Dowager Ma lowered her head, pondered for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this matter is on me, and I will definitely change my mind!" ”

Emperor Zhang was overjoyed: "When the queen mother comes out, the child will rest assured!" ”

Empress Dowager Ma shook her head, frowned slightly, and sighed: "The emperor only knows about state affairs, but he doesn't know that the emperor's family affairs are also state affairs, I don't know what about it?" Emperor Zhang knew what the Empress Dowager Ma was referring to, and he couldn't help but be stunned and couldn't answer for a while.

It turned out that the two sisters of the Dou family were beautiful and fragrant, and they were through the matter of the boudoir, and Emperor Zhang couldn't put it down, and played the matter of the goddess of King Xiang all day long. The Dou sisters are a queen and a concubine, monopolize the harem, a noble, full of hope to give birth to a son, and become a prince in the future, and they will enjoy wealth and wealth for a long time. However, the world does not meet people's wishes, although the two of them serve Emperor Zhang, take turns that night, they always feel blocked, no news of pregnancy, helpless to ask for medicine, I don't know how many home remedies and prescriptions have been tried, but they are ultimately ineffective. Emperor Zhang was nearly thirty years old and had no children, so he couldn't help but feel anxious, but he was confused by the Dou sisters, and he had no intention of visiting other harem beauties. There are three unfilial pieties, no queen is the greatest, the Empress Dowager Ma saw it, afraid of cutting off Liu's incense, so she thought of the palace maid Song Wan, the niece of the servant Liang Song, since the Ganquan Palace, bowed to the food, very attentive, the Empress Dowager Ma was very loving, wanted to make Emperor Zhang a concubine, and feared that others would be selfish, so he sent another palace maid Liang Xiang to Emperor Zhang, Emperor Zhang did not dare to accept it, and they were all named nobles. Emperor Zhang rose up the spirit of the dragon and tiger, several nights of romance, and actually sowed the dragon seed successively, conceived in October, Song Guisheng had a son, Liang Gui gave birth to a son, Emperor Zhang Longyan Dayue, amnesty to the world. The Du Dou sisters were very jealous, repeatedly slandered, and hated the Empress Dowager Ma, hated Ma Liao, Ma Fang and others, just because the Empress Dowager Ma was in the harem, the Dou sisters did not dare to set off a storm.

Seeing that Emperor Zhang was speechless for a long time, Empress Dowager Ma stood up, slowly walked to Emperor Zhang's side, was full of pity, and said softly: "Family affairs and state affairs, everything is not going well, all of which make the emperor worried, no wonder Rong'er is always sad." If you weren't born in the emperor's family, you would have the joy of family, and you wouldn't be so sad every day! ”

Emperor Zhang was silent. After a while, he raised his head and said proudly: "Queen Mother, since the child was born in the emperor's family, there should be no such sigh, the vicissitudes of the sea are crossing, Fang shows the true character of the hero, the child does not believe it, and he can't govern the Han family left by his father!" ”

Empress Dowager Ma's eyes were full of pity, and she nodded: "Okay, Jing'er, how much you looked like the first emperor just now, the queen mother believes in you, believes in you......"

Winter goes to spring, and the weeping willows on both sides of the Luoyang River grow tender green shoots under the rubbing of the spring breeze. The green buds are hung with crystal clear morning dew, and the weeping willows are like thousands of beads, and the sun shines on them, sparkling, very beautiful.

The literati came flutteringly, or holding a folding fan, or holding a book, or carrying a birdcage, all came to the river to enjoy the willows, sad spring and autumn, and the sound of poetry drifted with the river. In the crowd, two white-faced and beardless men, one in front of the other, walked along the Luoyang River, walking in a hurry, and had no intention of looking at the willows. The man in the back was panting, stopped, and said, "Brother, why are you running so fast?" Didn't you say to come and see the willow? ”

The big man in front said, "Brother, what do you think about Liu?" Uncle didn't allow us to leave the house, and we finally slipped out today, of course we have to do something big! ”

"Big deal? What's the big deal? ”

"Brother, don't ask more, let's go a few miles ahead, turn right, and it will be Luoyang Mansion. Then let's go to the big things! ”

The man was startled and said, "Brother, what do you want to do?" The last time I calculated Geng Gong, my uncle was furious, but fortunately Geng Gong didn't die, otherwise we would be finished. ”

These two people are Dou Xian and Dou Du, Geng Gong is in great trouble, Dou Xian regrets: "Why didn't you pull a knife and hack him to death at that time?" If you kill Geng Gong in the future, it will be extremely difficult. Dou Gu was afraid that the two of them would go out to cause trouble, so he locked them in the house, studied during the day, practiced martial arts at night, and never stopped. How could the two of them ever be subjected to such control? I was really panicked, and this day, while Dou Gu was not paying attention, he ran out of the smoke.

"Brother, do you remember Yin Wangkang of Luoyang Mansion?"

"Of course I remember, that night Geng Gong sent us to Luoyang Mansion, and Wang Kang beat us all over the body! Hum! Wang Kang, I also recognize it when he turns to ashes! ”

Dou Xian sneered repeatedly: "Brother, this Wang Kang didn't just beat us!" These days, I chatted with my aunt, Dou Wang, and Dou Lun, and I learned that my father and uncle were locked up in Zhao Prison back then, and Wang Kang was the court order. His aunt was a princess, and he didn't dare to be rude to his uncle, but he was angry with his father. Wang Kang called the blue wolf and tortured his father day and night, but his father couldn't bear it anymore and had to commit suicide. I heard that when my father was brought out of Zhao Prison, he didn't have a single piece of skin on his body......"
