Chapter 123: Harem
Geumbok Palace.
Xu Yingxu wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, looked up at the scorching sun, and looked a little anxious.
At this moment, a palace maid came out of the main hall, glanced at Xu Yingxu, hurriedly ran up a few steps, and gave a deep salute in front of Xu Yingxu: "Second master, the mother has promised to see you, please come with the slave maid!" ”
"Really? That's great! Thank you, Miss Rong'er! ”
Xu Yingxu was overjoyed, followed Rong'er's footsteps, and walked towards the hall.
......
"Xu Yingxu, the former military governor's office, has seen Concubine Chen, Niangniang Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!"
Looking at the second brother who was kneeling on the ground, Xu Miaojin shook his head slightly, this second brother is really too uncontrollable, he has been rejected for three consecutive days, but he still does not give up, and continues to ask for a meeting today.
But because of this, I had to see it.
"Second brother, get up!"
"Xie Niangniang!"
"Sit down!"
Xu Miaojin gently touched her son Zhu Wenjun's head, and said softly: "Jun'er, can you go out with Sister Xin'er for a while?" Mother and your second uncle have something to say! ”
"Okay!"
Three-year-old Zhu Wenjun was like a little adult, and gave a salute to his mother, and then to Xu Yingxu: "Second uncle, Jun'er went out to play!" ”
"Hmm."
"Jun'er is such a good boy!"
Looking at the bouncing Zhu Wenjun, Xu Yingxu said with some emotion.
"It's okay, it's just a pity, alas!"
Xu Miaojin stopped talking, raised her eyes and looked at Xu Yingxu and said, "Second brother, is there something wrong with being so anxious to see me?" ”
"Niangniang, do you know about the eldest brother?"
"Know something!"
Xu Miaojin frowned, glanced outside the hall, and then replied.
"Then what does Your Majesty mean?"
"Your Majesty?"
Xu Miaojin was silent for a while and said, "I don't know either!" ”
"How could you not know?"
Xu Yingxu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty hasn't been here recently?" ”
"I came once yesterday at noon, and after lunch, I took a nap and left!"
"What about at night?"
"I heard that I was reviewing the chapters in the Qianqing Palace until late at night, and then I fell asleep directly!"
"Oh,"
Xu Yingxu peeked at his sister's face, and found that her expression was calm, so she couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Is it Concubine Quan's bed?" ”
"Probably!"
Xu Miaojin said lightly, then picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
Seeing his sister's movements, Xu Yingxu's face changed and he was a little anxious, but he saw Rong'er standing on the side and closed his mouth again.
"Rong'er, you go to the door and keep guard!"
"Yes, sis!"
Xu Miaojin raised her hand a little helplessly: "Second brother, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”
"Third sister, I don't know if you know the situation outside, in the past two days, many courtiers have written to accuse the eldest brother of disobeying the holy decree and deliberately provoking a border provocation, which has led to a stalemate in the northwest war, and advocates severe punishment for the eldest brother."
"Well, what else?"
"Isn't that enough?"
"What do you think, second brother? Did the eldest brother disobey the holy decree and provoke the border without permission? ”
"This,"
Xu Yingxu hesitated for a while, bowed his head and said, "What the eldest brother did this time is really not appropriate, but he is the head of our Xu family, we can't help but save him!" ”
“......”
Xu Miaojin raised her eyes to look at her brother's face, and said secretly in her heart: I'm afraid you are for yourself. She was silent for a while, and said, "Second brother, you go back first!" Big brother will be fine. ”
"Really? Is that what Your Majesty meant? ”
"You don't care about this, you go home immediately, don't enter the palace recently, just do your part well, don't go around looking for people to build relationships, it's dangerous!"
"This ......"
Xu Yingxu still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Xu Miaojin: "Rong'er, send the second master out!" ”
"Yes, sis!"
Xu Yingxu was a little angry, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to obediently follow Rong'er out.
......
"Niangniang, the second master is gone!"
"Hmm,"
Xu Miaojin leaned back, raised his hand and rubbed his brows, and said, "Did he say anything?" ”
He said...... He said that the mother only cares about herself and does not care about her family! ”
"Huh,"
Xu Miaojin smiled bitterly twice: "This palace knows!" Go down. ”
"Yes!"
......
"Aifei, what do you think I should do with your eldest brother?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is not allowed to interfere in politics, it is an iron law of the Ming Dynasty, and the concubines dare not speak falsely!"
"Hehe, I forgive you for your innocence!"
"Everything is up to Your Majesty!"
"Alas, Miaojin, I'm sorry for you!"
"But I can't help it!"
Thinking of the conversation at noon yesterday, Xu Miaojin suddenly felt a wave of nausea and vomited.
......
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Concubine Chen is happy! ”
"What?"
Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, gently stroked Xu Miaojin's face, and said softly: "You have a good rest, don't think too much!" ”
"Your Majesty, I-"
Xu Miaojin burst into tears.
"It's okay, it's okay!"
......
Zhu Yunwen talked with Xu Miaojin for a while, I don't know if Xu Miaojin was too tired or weak, so he fell asleep unconsciously.
Zhu Yunwen tucked the quilt for him and told Rong'er and others to take good care of him before getting up and leaving.
......
"Liu Zhen, what do you think I should do?"
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to speak falsely!"
Liu Zhen was a little embarrassed.
"You!"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head, raised his legs and walked in the direction of the Imperial Garden, he needed to calm down.
......
When you become an emperor, you will gradually lose many of the feelings that ordinary people have.
This is something that everyone can understand, but not everyone can accept it.
Zhu Yunwen, who has the thinking of later generations, always has a trace of special sympathy for the women in the palace, no matter what kind of woman, no matter how proud she is, no matter how characterful she is, as long as she is in the palace, she will quickly become a canary.
Unless there are very special circumstances, they will never be able to leave this Forbidden City, and when they die, they will leave the current palace and live in Cining Palace, Renshou Palace, No. 1 Hall and other places to spend the rest of their lives.
No, it is now the Jianwen Dynasty, and according to the system formulated by Emperor Hongwu, they are all to be buried.
It seems that this has to be changed as well!
......
There are so many women in the palace that sometimes I don't know how many women I have.
But among them, there are three people who are the most special.
One is Queen Ma Hui, although she has been somewhat neglected over the years, but as the crown prince Wenkui grows up, he has gone to Kunning Palace more often, and his relationship with the queen has also eased.
The other is Concubine Bai Fangrui, according to later generations, this is the choice of free love, and even he once connived at her to live outside the palace as a concubine, but because of the Queen Mother and Wen Gui, she finally chose to enter the palace.
Bai Fangrui, if she was born in the next life, would be a strong business woman, but in this era, she can only choose to become a canary.
I don't know why, after Yu'er was born, her body deteriorated a lot, and she often needed to recuperate, and when she used to see her, she said the most about her child - Wen Gui, alas!
There is also Concubine Chen-Xu Miaojin.
It's hard to say clearly about her feelings, it should be considered love, but it is inevitable that there are some political factors, in order to make the Xu family feel at ease, she has no other choice, and I don't have either.
However, if Xu Yihua did not rebel, then he and Xu Miaojin, I'm afraid it would still be impossible, and Xu Huizu would not agree.
Miaojin's two sisters and one sister are both married to their uncles, namely King Yan, King Dai and King An.
From this point of view, the generations are a little messy, but fortunately, I don't care too much.
In addition, ask yourself, you still have some despicable thoughts! Miaojin is a celebrity in later generations, and she can embrace her, share a bed with her, and let her have children for herself, just like the mentality of chasing stars in later generations!
But Xu Miaojin entered the palace, and there were indeed some problems.
The harem from the queen down is all from a low-level official gentry family, Ma Quan, the father of the queen Ma Hui, is just from the fourth grade, and Xu Miaojin's father Xu Danai is a first-class duke, the head of the founding nobles.
But in terms of background, Xu Miaojin is like a dragon in a shallow pond, which makes everyone in the palace feel ashamed of themselves, even Queen Ma Hui is no exception.
Today, Zhu Yunwen can also understand why Ma Hui deliberately prevented Xu Miaojin from entering the palace, thinking about it, this is probably one of the reasons why his relationship with the queen gradually eased.
And this kind of relaxation will inevitably hurt Miaojin's heart, and it is impossible for her to know anything about what happened back then.
It's hard to do!
......
As for Xu Huizu, it must be disposed of.
Over the years, Zhu Yunwen has found that there have been more and more front-line generals who are complacent and wanton in attacking, and although they have won most of the cases, this atmosphere is very bad.
In Zhu Yunwen's view, the fundamental reason for these victories is that he has provided them with good equipment and sufficient provisions, not how strong their ability is.
These arrogant soldiers, if they don't pour some cold water, they won't wake up.
Xu Huizu should be a target!
I hope the Xu family can understand some things!
......
Two days later, Zhu Yunwen made up his mind and issued an order to reprimand Xu Huizu for disobeying the order, removing him from the post of commander-in-chief of the Luntai Front Army, and reassigning him to the Ili Metropolitan Division, presiding over the pacification of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and at the same time responsible for the establishment of guards, tuntian, and local religious reform.
At the same time, he will be fined for two years.
The commander-in-chief of the Luntai Front Army was succeeded by He Fu, and Song Xuan remained as the deputy commander-in-chief.
The seriously injured Song Sheng returned to Gansu to recuperate, and if the situation permitted, Zhu Yunwen was ready to let him go to Beijing to recuperate.
