Chapter 11: Healing

"As for the noble concubine Gao?" Glancing at the noble concubine who was kneeling on the ground, the queen said expressionlessly: "I will punish the noble concubine Gao for a month." ”

"The concubine thanked the Queen Mother!" Concubine Gao understood that this punishment was already very light for her.

It wasn't until late evening that Zhang Lingyang woke up.

Of course, Zhang Lingyang didn't go crazy this time, nor did he go crazy, after all, pretending to be crazy and stupid is also very tiring.

Zhang Lingyang, who woke up, saw that there was no one around, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile that had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, and then looked at the empty roof, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this time, a woman in palace clothes walked in, and when she saw that Zhang Lingyang had woken up, she sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner!" ”

"Oh!" Zhang Lingyang nodded noncommittally, then looked at the palace woman in front of him and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The woman in palace costume said: "The concubine is the virtuous concubine Wu. ”

"Virtuous concubine? Okay, I got it! With that, Zhang Lingyang was ready to get up.

Concubine Xian said while serving Zhang Lingyang to dress, "Your Majesty, you should call yourself 'I'. ”

"I?" Zhang Lingyang nodded, "I know!" ”

Seeing Zhang Lingyang answer like this, Concubine Xian couldn't help but smile on her face.

Under the service of Concubine Xian, Zhang Lingyang had dinner, then sat on the bed and took a book and read it.

Concubine Xian sat aside, holding a needle and thread in her hand, as if she was sewing a purse.

Although the book is written in traditional Chinese, Zhang Lingyang can still guess most of it.

However, there are some rare words that Zhang Lingyang still can't guess.

I thought to myself, anyway, now that I have amnesia, it doesn't hurt to ask.

So he picked up the book and asked Concubine Xian, "Aifei, what is this word?" ”

Glancing at the book, Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this word is pronounced '睍'." ”

"Oh!" Zhang Lingyang nodded silently, he still thought that the word 'see'?

You ask me and I answer, occasionally talk and laugh, and the scene is also warm.

In the blink of an eye, it was already late at night, looking at the beautiful face of Concubine Xian under the light, Zhang Lingyang couldn't help but move his index finger a little, and he wanted to ask Concubine Xian for favor.

Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, your dragon body has not healed yet, and according to the palace rules, you can't have sex." ”

In his heart, Zhang Lingyang had another layer of resentment against this rotten and stinky rule.

After serving Zhang Lingyang to rest, Concubine Xian returned to the outer room, asked the palace maid to make a bunk on the bed, and then also stripped and slept.

The next day, Queen Wang took care of the 'sick' Zhang Lingyang, and when Zhang Lingyang begged for favor in the evening, he was still rejected by Queen Wang.

This made Zhang Lingyang a little depressed.

You must know that the current Zhang Lingyang is just the time to eat the marrow and know the taste, watching the delicate costume beauties dangling in front of him from time to time, and they can only look at it but can't eat it, what kind of pain is this?

Anyway, Zhang Lingyang's heart is like thousands of ants biting: itchy!

But fortunately, on the third day, the person responsible for serving Zhang Lingyang was a low-ranking concubine named Song Jieyu.

This Song Jieyu is a responsible and somewhat timid concubine, in the face of Zhang Lingyang's courtship, Song Jieyu half pushed, and finally complied.

In the next few days, Zhang Lingyang tasted more than half of the concubines in Zhao Chenxi's harem, and his body gradually recovered.

Now that the illness has been cured, it is natural that the next step is to go to the court to deal with government affairs.

Otherwise, government affairs must not be abandoned?

During this period, Zhang Lingyang also ordered Xiaofuzi to call Zhang Zhiyuan and Sun Dingan, the two bigwigs of the court, to have a general understanding of state affairs.

Through the introduction of the two, Zhang Lingyang found that although disasters occur in China from time to time, the political situation is relatively stable.

Of course, this is mainly because the emperor vigorously purged the government of officials during his reign, which made the rule of officials more clear, and the treasury was more abundant.

The problem facing Da Zhou now is not an internal affair problem, but a constant war on the frontier.

First of all, there are constant wars in the western Xinjiang, and from time to time there are border tribes who do not submit to the rule of the Great Zhou, and there are repeated rebellions.

And on the Yungui side, since the land reform and return, there have been constant wars.

The policy of changing the land and returning it to the river is not wrong in itself, and it has always been an unprecedentedly good policy for the people of Miaojiang.

However, this policy harms the interests of Southwest Tusi itself.

Therefore, in the face of the policy of changing the land and returning to the stream, the Tusi of Miao Xinjiang rebelled from time to time, so that the Miao Xinjiang side was also constantly fighting.

But fortunately, these are small rebellions that cannot threaten the rule of the Great Zhou.

At least in Zhang Lingyang's opinion, since you dare to rebel, I will send troops to recruit to see who can consume whom in the end?

Of course, Zhang Lingyang is still a political novice at the moment, and he doesn't know how much food the court has spent on conscripting these unsubordinated people.

These tribes are often suppressed and rebelled, rebelled and suppressed, and often repeatedly.

As mentioned earlier, Zhang Lingyang is completely a political novice, and most of them are ignorant of these policies.

Therefore, Zhang Lingyang entrusted all these border matters to Zhang Zhiyuan and Sun Dingan, the two bigwigs, with full discretion, and he could concentrate on dealing with some corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

Why do we need to rectify the rule of officials?

From the mouths of Zhang Zhiyuan and Sun Dingan, Zhang Lingyang learned that the former Emperor Yongkang was strict, and many officials were dismissed and imprisoned for corruption.

The first decree issued by Emperor Zhao Chenxi of Tai'an after he ascended the throne was to appoint officials who had been deposed for corruption during the Yongkang period.

and all officials were reinstated.

The consequences of this can be imagined.

But how to rectify the rule of officials? How to purge corrupt officials?

This is a bit embarrassing for Zhang Lingyang.

Because Zhang Lingyang doesn't know much about the ministers of the DPRK and China, let alone understand it, if he wants to use a capable minister, he doesn't know who to choose?

However, Zhang Lingyang also has his own way: that is, as the emperor, he has a secret service under him.

The notorious Jinyiwei and the East Factory.

On the one hand, Zhang Lingyang ordered the ceremonial supervisor to sort out the past resumes of officials from all over the country.

On the other hand, Zhang Lingyang ordered Jinyiwei to secretly investigate the illegal acts of officials in various places.

After instructing things, Zhang Lingyang started his daily work, which was to make excerpts.

Zhang Lingyang's criticism of excerpts is naturally different from other emperors. If you agree, you will put a checkmark, and if you disagree, you will put a wrong sign.

As for why this is so, it's not because I can't write calligraphy?

Think about it, as an emperor, but the writing is extremely bad, even worse than a five-year-old child, let the minister know, how embarrassing should Zhang Lingyang be?

Therefore, for the sake of his own face, Zhang Lingyang will not write indiscriminately before the words are practiced.

Don't write even if you die!

Before you know it, the sky outside has darkened.

After sitting for a day, Zhang Lingyang also had some backache and leg pain, moved his muscles and bones, and began to eat dinner.

As always, after Zhang Lingyang had dinner, Wu Sanbao came in again with the green head card.

glanced at the name on the green head card, and the words 'noble concubine' first came into Zhang Lingyang's eyes.

Thinking about the first night he entered the palace, the cherry mouth of the noble concubine, Zhang Lingyang was a little moved, and he turned over her brand without thinking about it.

Entering the dormitory, the noble concubine first asked Zhang Lingyang for a peace, and then took a tray from a palace maid behind her and put it on the table next to Zhang Lingyang.

The noble concubine smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this is the lotus seed porridge that the concubine just boiled with her own hands, and there are lotus seeds, longan, and ...... in it."

Anyway, this porridge is full of good things, and it can also clear away heat and fire, improve the awakening of the brain, nourish yin and yang, and is countless times better than six walnuts.

"The concubine has a heart!" The noble concubine of the family works so hard, and she can't help but say that she is the emperor, isn't it?

Well, verbal praise once!

Seeing that Zhang Lingyang drank the lotus seed porridge in the bowl in one gulp, the noble concubine was overjoyed, as if she had eaten honey.

"The concubine will serve another bowl to the emperor!" As she spoke, the noble concubine wanted to pick up the bowl and serve the porridge.

And Zhang Lingyang was full of black lines on his face, and said in his heart: "I turned over your green head card, do you want to drink your porridge?" ”

"No need!" Zhang Lingyang stopped the noble concubine, "I'm full"

That is to say, we are going to get down to business next, and it's hard to work if our stomachs are swollen.

Where did Concubine Gao still not understand what Zhang Lingyang meant? glanced at the palace maid and eunuch in the back, and then snuggled into Zhang Lingyang's arms.

This is the first time that Concubine Gao has seen the emperor since Zhang Lingyang fell into the water, and she has endless words.
