Just when Chongzhen was waiting for Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan to enter Beijing, the harem was lively.

In the queen's bedroom, Kunning Palace, Queen Zhou looked at the sister-in-law in front of her and had a headache: "Imperial sister, this palace has sent someone to invite your imperial brother over." It's useless for you to mess with me here. Our Daming Dynasty has had rules since Emperor Taizu Gao, and the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and you don't know it. ”

Princess Zhu Huiyan of Ningde relied on the favor of the Apocalypse and Chongzhen, and said arrogantly: "I don't care, I don't care." The royal sister-in-law must help me. After a while, the royal brother will come, and you must help the little sister more. ”

Queen Zhou stroked her forehead with her hand and said helplessly: "Okay." You don't know what kind of temper your imperial brother is? Look at the heads of people who have been cut off by him in the court since he ascended the throne, you say that you two are not living well, so why do you have to join in the fun!? ”

As he spoke, he heard a burst of laughter, followed by a series of kneeling salutes.

After Chongzhen entered Kunning Palace, he looked at Queen Zhou, then looked at Princess Ningde, stopped Zhu Huiyan, who was about to salute, and said with a smile: "The imperial sister has always been a rare guest. Why did you come to the royal brother today? He turned his head to Wang Chengen and said, "Send someone to the imperial dining room to answer and ask them to cook two more dishes that the imperial sister likes to eat at noon." ”

Zhu Weiyan said: "Brother Huang, my sister has something to ask Brother Huang to come, you must help me." ”

Chongzhen smiled: "Okay, good, you say." What the royal brother can do, he will never shirk. ”

Zhu Huiyan said: "Brother Huang, the horse wanted to enter the new army, but he was stopped. Ask the royal brother to call the shots and take him in. ”

When Chongzhen heard that it was about the new army, his face immediately sank, and he shouted: "Nonsense! ”

The majesty of Chongzhen, who crossed over, was flourishing, and he had not met Princess Ningde and others for a long time, when Princess Ningde was so frightened that she knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The royal brother is angry, and the courtier's sister knows that she is wrong." ”

How can Chongzhen, who has always regarded the New Army as the top of his heart, tolerate the idea of someone fighting the New Army? But she didn't let Princess Ningde get up, but asked with a calm face: "Regarding the matter of the new army, don't say that it is you, even your imperial sister-in-law never allows her to ask more, how dare you come here to intercede for the attached horse?" Say, what does the colt want to do? ”

Zhu Huiyan knelt on the ground and cried: "Brother Hui, the concubine just wants to enter the army and serve the country." It's the minister's sister who deserves to die, thinking that he will enter the new army, firstly, to make some contributions, and secondly, to be safer than the border army. ”

After hearing this, Chongzhen sneered: "Okay, you are thinking about the safety of the horse, but the couple is deeply in love." However, you seem to have forgotten that you are the daughter of heaven, right? They all think about the safety of their families, who thinks about the safety of Daming? Who cares about the safety of the other soldiers?! ”

Chongzhen, who was originally happy that Zhu Huiyan came to the palace to visit him, was extremely disappointed at the moment. Sure enough, she is an extrovert, and after she gets married, she thinks about her husband's family, but she even forgets her identity as the daughter of her heavenly family.

Seeing Chongzhen angry, Queen Zhou hurriedly stood up, stepped forward to help Zhu Huiyan, and said to Chongzhen: "Why is Your Majesty so angry? Even if the new army can't do it, wouldn't it be the same if the horses were sent to the Beijing camp?

After all, they are all a family, Your Majesty should temporarily calm the wrath of the thunder and listen to the royal sister finish speaking? ”

Chongzhen snorted coldly and said, "Let her speak." Make it clear to me that if you come to intercede with the horse to enter the new army, or if the horse pleads with you, I will send the Jinyi guard to verify. If there is a lie, I will not spare you! ”

Zhu Huiyan, who was frightened by Chongzhen, no longer dared to be coquettish and coquettish like she did to Queen Zhou just now, she just cried: "Brother Huihuang, since the last time I went to the Martyrs' Shrine, I have been thinking about joining the army, but I don't even care about the errands of thousands of households in the south of the city as before.

The horse had already been there when the new army was recruiting, but because he was a horse and the identity of the thousand households in the south of the city, no one dared to accept him in, even the other Beijing camps and border troops, and no one was willing to accept him in.

When he returned, he was sullen and had not laughed for days. Therefore, the courtier's sister thought of entering the palace to find the imperial sister-in-law to ask for a favor, and asked the imperial sister-in-law to help the courtier's sister say a few more kind words, and begged the imperial brother to agree to let the concubine enter the army.

It's just that the minister sister is worried about the safety of the donkey, so she wants to let the donkey enter the new army. The courtier's sister was confused for a moment and begged the imperial brother for forgiveness. ”

Although what he said was a bit upside down, Chongzhen still understood. Just think about his sister, and now some ministers are Liu Youfu's concubine, Chongzhen has a feeling that his cabbage is arched by the pig outside, and he is still devoted to the pig.

Chongzhen said unhappily: "The horse wants to join the army, and I am very relieved. It's just that this new army should not be considered. Let him go to Jingying. When I go out in the future, I will take him with me, so that he can make some contributions.

It's just one point, once the horse enters the army, he has to defend the military law in the army, but the identity of the horse is useless, and one day when he arrives on the battlefield, he can only ask for more blessings. ”

Zhu Weiyan, who was frightened, didn't dare to make trouble anymore, so she had to thank her: "Thank you, Brother Huang." The courtier's sister knew that she was wrong. ”

Chongzhen's face improved a little. left Zhu Huiyan to eat after dinner, and then ordered someone to send her out of the palace.

When she returned to the Horse Mansion, Zhu Huiyan breathed a sigh of relief. The imperial brother has changed too much, and he is no longer the imperial brother who spoiled him infinitely before he ascended the throne, but has become strange and majestic.

Princess Ningde's concubine Liu Youfu saw Zhu Huiyan coming back with red eyes, so he asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?" But who upset you? ”

Zhu Huiyan said: "Yes, my imperial brother reprimanded me, you go to him to be angry for me." ”

Liu Youfudeng, who was about to say that he was going to be angry for Princess Ningde, was choked in his throat when he said a word. Who dared to go to Chongzhen's trouble when his head was squeezed by the door?

At that moment, I had to comfort me with kind words: "Don't be sad anymore." Your Majesty just reprimanded a few words, and there is nothing wrong with the left and right, right? ”

Zhu Huiyan snorted: "It's not for you."

The concubine saw that the princess had always wanted to join the army, so she had to enter the palace to find the imperial sister-in-law, and wanted the imperial sister-in-law to say a few kind words for me in front of the imperial brother, which was also good for you. It's just that I didn't want to be reprimanded by the royal brother.

But fortunately, the imperial brother still loves me, and now I have promised to let you enter the Beijing camp to practice, and when the imperial brother goes out, I will let you follow the army, so that I can get some credit. ”

Liu Youfu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a salute: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

Zhu Huiyan said happily: "Look at your stupid appearance." But you have to remember that when you are in the army, remember to follow the royal brother at all times, this is the safest, and you must pay attention to protect yourself. ”

Zhu Huiyan and Liu Youfu were so affectionate that they didn't care, but Chongzhen, who was so angry with Zhu Huiyan, didn't want to stay in the palace for a moment, so he simply took people out of the city and went straight to the Royal Academy.
