Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Sense of Understanding

In November of the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, a major event occurred in Jingshi, when the third empress of today's son, Fang, died.

To say that Emperor Jiajing is indeed very capable of tossing, he has only succeeded to the throne for more than 20 years and has changed three empresses.

It stands to reason that the queen is a figure in the world, and her status should be very respected.

It's just that his three queens ended up miserable.

The first Empress Chen was already pregnant with Emperor Jiajing's flesh and blood at that time, and she was reprimanded by Emperor Jiajing because she was jealous that Emperor Jiajing glanced at Concubine Shun's hand while drinking tea and said a word to Emperor Jiajing.

Empress Chen was horrified by this, fearing that she would fall out of favor. As a result, the miscarriage was directly under high pressure.

Shortly thereafter, Empress Chen fell ill and died.

Emperor Jiajing did not feel too sad, and later canonized the second empress Zhang. It is also interesting to say, this queen is the previous concubine Shun.

Empress Zhang's fate was also miserable, because she interceded for the brother of the imperial aunt, the Empress Dowager Zhang (the wife of Emperor Hongzhi), which angered Emperor Jiajing and was deposed. He died soon after.

Finally, there is the third queen Fang.

It is said that Empress Fang also has a life-saving grace for Emperor Jiajing.

In the twenty-first year of Jiajing, there was a famous Renyin Palace Change, and Emperor Jiajing was almost strangled to death by Yang Jinying and other palace maids.

The clinker palace maid Zhang Jinlian turned back halfway and ran to Queen Fang's palace for help.

Empress Fang arrived in time to save Emperor Jiajing.

Afterwards, Empress Fang executed the palace maid involved and Concubine Cao Duan, who was sleeping that night.

Because of his meritorious escort, Emperor Jiajing once favored Empress Fang, but later he heard that Concubine Cao Duan was wronged, and Empress Fang took the opportunity to execute Concubine Cao Duan.

Emperor Jiajing was furious when he learned the news, and the other queen also hated from love.

He was bent on avenging Concubine Cao Duan, but he couldn't find a chance.

Until late at night in November of the 26th year of Jiajing, Empress Fang's bedroom suddenly caught fire. According to the rules of the palace, the palace door is locked at night, and the people in the palace can't escape, and people outside the palace can't enter.

But it stands to reason that as long as the fire is put out in time, it can still save the life of Queen Fang herself.

But no one went to put out the fire.

This bizarre fire directly burned down Queen Fang's bedroom, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace were burned to death.

Many people speculate that this is Emperor Jiajing's revenge on the empress, but this is just speculation, and there is no evidence.

...

said that Xu Yan was looking at the idle book that day, so Yang Pengju rushed to the study and said breathlessly: "Big brother, it's snowing, it's snowing outside." Come and see! ”

Xu Yan looked out the window and saw a lot of snowflakes floating.

Although snow has not yet formed, it is not impossible to see that a layer of snow will continue to fall on this day.

Jiangnan is not as good as the north, and snowfall in November of the lunar calendar is indeed somewhat rare.

Ningbo hasn't snowed for a long time, otherwise the little fat man wouldn't be so excited.

"Let's go out and have a look."

Xu Yan put down his book and got up, and walked into the courtyard with Yang Pengju.

"Ruixue Trillion Year!"

Watching the falling snowflakes fall on the grass and trees, Xu Yan said with heartfelt emotion.

For the farming people, it is really a matter of watching the sky and eating.

If there is a famine because of a long drought and no rain, the crops die of drought, I don't know how many people will starve to death.

In fact, there were many famines in the Ming Dynasty, and there were also many famines in the Jiajing year, and the Xu family was in the grain business, so they had a deep understanding of this.

"Good harvest year, harvest year is delicious."

Yang Pengju added a sentence very timely.

Xu Yan shook his head, this is really the stupid son of the landlord's family.

"The painting hall gets up in the morning to report the snowflakes. The high roller shutter looks at Jiarui, and the bright color is far from the maze.

The light is full of smoke, and the grass is cold and jade. It should be the heavenly immortals who are drunk and crush the white clouds. ”

Where Xu is in love, he recites a poem.

Fang is groaning, Yang Pengju immediately applauded.

"The world says that eldest brother, you are a poet and a saint. I've seen it today. ”

Xu Yan was speechless.

"Uh, Brother Pengju, this is Li Taibai's Qingpingle."

"I thought it was my eldest brother."

Yang Pengju scratched his head and said.

Xu Yanxin said that good poetry naturally has to be used on the blade, and it would be a pity to waste it like this.

"This is crepe, can the eldest brother explain it to me?"

"Look at the snow flying, and the snow fills the court steps. The snowflakes dance wildly like the smoke of the furnace, and the white flowers and plants are shining in the cold light. Like the gods in the sky who are drunk and crush the clouds..."

Xu Yan explained very freely.

"Big brother is really talented."

Yang Pengju praised.

Xu Yan said in his heart, this is where and where.

"It's not for my brother, Brother Pengju, it's still necessary to understand some necessary poems."

Xu Yan pondered the wording and said: "The poems of everyone like Li Taibai and Su Dongpo must be memorized after all. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for others to talk about you and not know it. ”

Who knew that Yang Peng said with a hippie smile: "What am I afraid of, with my eldest brother by my side, will it be my turn to come out?" ”

Seeing that he looked like he was not stingy, Xu Yan couldn't cry or laugh.

But it's really interesting to have such a living treasure by your side.

...

...

In Xixi Hongyuan, Hong Miaoyun was also reciting the same words.

Such a song by Li Taibai came out of the mouth of a young woman, but it has a unique charm.

"What is Miss thinking?"

"Nothing."

Hong Miaoyun shook her head and said, "It's just cranky." ”

"Miss, I'm thinking about Xu Gongzi."

Cui Wen covered her mouth and smiled: "Xu Gongzi may be thinking about Miss too." ”

"You damn girl."

Hong Miaoyun glared at Cui Wen and said angrily.

"If you want to say that Xu Gongzi is young, he has already connected the three yuan of the middle and middle schools, if he can connect with the township, even if he has a meritorious career, he can marry a young lady. At that time, I am afraid that the slave will change his name to his uncle. ”

Cui Wen didn't mean to stop at all.

"I hope so."

Hong Miaoyun said secretly.

It's too grinding to think about it all day.
