Chapter 0269: Imperial Power
In July of the seventh year of Zhide, good news came from the Tang Mansion that Mrs. Lin was pregnant.
At the same time, Tang Yuan's concubine was also put on the agenda, Lin Qiao'er said, if I don't give the general a concubine at this time, it will seem that I, Lin Qiao'er, am not close to people, and I will also let other people's mothers-in-law chew their tongues.
But where to take a concubine has become Lin Qiaoer's trouble, if she finds someone who is too beautiful, she may steal her position in the future, and if she finds someone who is not beautiful, she is afraid of making her husband unhappy.
At this time, news came from the seventh courtyard that Mrs. Qian of the Meng family was going to send her daughter Meng Tao into Tang Yuan's house, and as soon as she heard this, Lin Qiao'er exploded at that time.
"What? Is she Qian Xiangxiu crazy? How old is her daughter? Even if she was open-minded about this, Tang Yuan couldn't agree to it. Lin Qiaoer said indignantly.
"What if the general agrees." The maid Xiaohuan pouted and said.
"Will he say yes?" Lin Qiao'er was not confident, "I can't see it, even if he can agree, I can't agree, what is this called, wouldn't it make people laugh when it spreads!" ”
The maid Xiaohuan went out to clean the spittoon with a spittoon, handed it to the door, and let the little maid take it away.
Xiaohuan is Lin Qiaoer's dowry maid, and she is also a maid in the room, and she looks good, but so far Tang Yuan has never touched her, and now the lady wants to give the general a concubine, but she didn't even mention her, which made her feel bad in her heart.
Whether she is a marrying maid or a maid in the room, in other people's homes, there are many maids in the room who turn into concubines, and the girl Xiaohuan is bitter. In fact, when she was fine, the maid was still secretly happy, she liked the general very much, and even dreamed that the general would come to her one day, but the result was very regrettable to her, even if Lin Qiaoer was not at home, the general ignored her, just businesslike.
The general is not like Tang Hu, it is said that the women in his house have let him do it all over again, which is actually not very good, and it is said that he has made his wife angry to death.
People who are too abusive are not worthy of Xiaohuan's liking.
Qian Xiangxiu leaked the news to Mrs. Lin's house, and when she didn't get a response, she knew that the matter was probably blown, but she was still a little unwilling, so she decided to go to Tang Yuan in person to tell her, although our Meng Tao is young, but she is big, and she looks handsome, not to mention one in a thousand, one in a thousand can always have it, right?
With our family's background, our daughter gave you a second room, and I lost you?
This matter quickly reached Tang Yuan's ears, and Tang Yuan was shocked.
"What?" Tang Yuan's face tightened: "Is Qian Xiangxiu crazy?" Does he think that I, Tang Yuan, am a beast? Tang Yuan scratched his head, "Tell Qian Xiangxiu that you won't talk about this matter in the future." This woman is truly blind. ”
"Master, Mrs. Qian wants to see you." Xiaohuan said with an unhappy look.
"Nope."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to see it, people are already waiting outside."
"......" Tang Yuan's eyes were glazed: "You just say I'm not at home." ”
With that, Tang Yuan jumped out of the back window and ran away.
Marching and fighting, now Tang Yuan is a good hand, but in the face of family trivialities, he is a "half-fool", these two words were given to him by Lin Qiaoer.
Tang Yuan ran to the barracks and said that he would strengthen the training for a month this month, and General Tang would personally supervise it.
But as soon as he ran to the barracks, he was transferred back by an edict from His Majesty the Emperor, and asked him what he was doing to run around in the barracks. You have a special status now, you lead 30,000 people alone, your every move always restrains the hearts of many people, you don't make trouble for me in the future, don't go to the barracks if you have nothing to do.
Nominally, the 30,000 people in the Gyeonggi garrison were Tang Yuan's, but in fact, the emperor set aside 20,000 people, so he suddenly ran to the barracks, and this action would make the queen mother more careful, not the emperor.
The Empress Dowager is not sure, whether the emperor will unite with the empress and bring Tang Yuan over, and at that time, this Gyeonggi garrison will be completely controlled by the emperor and can threaten the empress dowager at any time.
Last time, Tianhou withdrew and replaced the military department Shangshu, and at the same time wanted to remove the supervisors of the second and third divisions of the Gyeonggi Garrison, but the emperor bit it to death, and the two of them almost blushed because of this matter.
Empress Dowager Cao had many ideas, and later she bypassed the emperor and directly summoned the two prison soldiers into the palace and asked the Lu family to teach them lessons.
After the two prison soldiers returned to the camp, they submitted their resignations at the same time, but they were scolded by the emperor.
Seeing that this trick didn't work, the Queen Mother was ruthless and decided to set aside the supervisors of these two divisions and arrange her own people in the brigade-level army, but the emperor was not polite and dismissed those people again.
The battle between the Empress Dowager and the emperor has become somewhat obvious, which makes the Empress Dowager Cao more and more dissatisfied.
Just when Tang Yuan entered the palace for training, the Queen Mother suddenly came, and when she saw that Tang Yuan was also there, she asked Tang Yuan to listen to her together, of course, Tang Yuan couldn't see the Queen Mother, and there was a curtain in between.
The so-called ministers enter the palace, and they do not go to the harem, where men are not allowed to enter, Tang Yuan can only go to the palace apse, which is a large hall between the harem and the Jinluan Palace.
In the past, the Empress Dowager Cao talked with the leaders of the four major gates, and it was also carried out in the apse, and there was only one person who could enter the harem, that was Min Yue, the uncle of the Empress Dowager, the old general was over seventy years old, but no one gossiped.
In the harem, not to mention outsiders, even if it is a prince, more than twelve years old have to be thrown out, there is an imperial city in Luoyang City, the imperial city is divided into three palaces, the front palace is the apse, the middle palace is where the princes live, the harem is the place where the emperor, the queen mother, the queen and the concubines, the rules are strict, and a wrong step is a matter of losing your head.
Only the eunuchs could move around casually, with almost no scruples.
The Queen Mother sat on the Luohan bed and did not speak.
After waiting for a while, Empress Tang Qi also came, sitting on the side of the Queen Mother, originally Emperor Zhao Ce was supposed to sit inside, but he sat outside the curtain with Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan's eyes rolled, and he said in his heart: It's not good, the timing of entering the palace today is really not good, and I don't want to be scolded with the emperor.
Sure enough.
The Queen Mother expressed her chest directly, and as soon as she came up, she scolded the emperor with her head and face, saying that her son was older and his wings were stiff, and he dared to openly confront his mother.
Isn't everything your mother does for your sake?
In the future, when I die, aren't these all your stepping stones?
My mother is trying her best for you, but you think that my mother is planning to calculate you, there are queens and Tang Yuan to judge, but you should ask them, have I demolished your platform?
As soon as he heard this, Tang Yuan felt a cool breeze on his neck, and he was even worried that the Queen Mother would suddenly drop the cup, and a few sword and axe hands rushed out from unknown directions, and this battle was too similar.
Tang Yuan immediately said: "The Queen Mother is dedicated to the country, the people and the emperor, and the ministers can see it clearly. ”
"In that case, Tang Yuan, I think you should hand over the military power, what do you think?"
