Chapter 880: Changchun Garden
In May of the third year of Jingkang, Li Ying, Lancôme, Chai Erniang and others from Taiyuan, Chang'an, Luoyang and other places came to Bianjing, and some government offices and the like were stationed one after another, so that the imperial court was quickly busy for a while.
Compared with Zhao Song, which is quite redundant, Li Jing's officials are almost replaced by scarcity, which is also because Li Jing rose too fast at the beginning, and those scholars have not yet accepted Li Jing.
Of course, things that made Li Jing feel troublesome also followed, the arrival of these officials means that the day of Li Jing's accession to the throne is getting closer and closer, how to reward the ministers, these ministers dare not interfere, but the rank of the concubines thinks that they can speak. There are only two people who can participate in the competition for the queen's position, one is Queen Lancôme, although she has a dignified demeanor and gave birth to the king's eldest son Li Dingbei, but her background is not good, many people think that she can't be a mother in the world, and the other is Chai's family, no matter how good she looks, her background, etc., she is enough to be a mother in the world, but the time to enter the door is relatively late, and the means are relatively strong, and it is rumored that King Mu Li Ying and his wife don't like it very much.
But Muyi is different from the queen back then, and many people think that even if Li Ying disagrees, he has to agree for the sake of the 10,000-year-old foundation of the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Jing has not said it explicitly, there are many people talking about it in Bianjing City in private.
"Your Majesty, the scenery of this place is very good! The minister heard that the king was happy in Changchun Garden these days, and thought it was just a joke, but now it seems that it is really so, the scenery is unique, the beauty is in his arms, and the minister is very envious. Li Fu followed Li Jing as he walked in Changchun Garden, looking at a group of beauties walking in the distance, and the corners of his mouth suddenly showed a wry smile.
Changchun Garden was originally transformed by Zhao Ji's painting academy, this place has beautiful scenery, Zhao Ji gathered a lot of painting people here, specially studied calligraphy and painting with him, and even set up imperial examinations, official positions and so on for painting people, now it is different, Li Jing renamed it Changchun Garden, the only variety collected here is beauty.
After the occupation of Bianjing, in the palace, except for Zheng Guanyin, the rest of the concubines over thirty-five were released, and the concubines below thirty-five were all sent to Changchun Garden, some were Zhao Ji's concubines, some were Zhao Huan's, and some were Zhao Gou, Zhao Kai and other concubines who died or left the prince of the clan, etc., as well as Princess Zhao Song, the county lord and the like, all the women with good looks were sent to Changchun Garden, and even Li Jing also ordered people to send the concubines and princesses of the Liao court from Yunzhou and Taiyuan, for a while, The beauties in the entire Changchun Garden are like clouds, for Li Jing to be at ease, and when he is fine, Li Jing will come to Changchun Garden to pick flowers.
"I'm afraid that the outside world is all about me now." Li Jing said with a smile. Changchun Garden just changed a plaque, but sending so many princesses and concubines from the former dynasty into it still caused a sensation among the people. It's just that the winner is a prince and the loser is a coward, so what's it?
"It's all spread by the enemy in private, but no one in the DPRK or China says anything." Li Fu hurriedly explained.
"Don't care what they say, as long as the country is stable and the Haiyan River is clear, the emperor is not allowed to have his own private life?" Li Jing said nonchalantly. Gather these women together, find whoever you want, this kind of thing is not without in history, Qin Shi Huang once operated the construction of Afang Palace, and gathered the palace maids and concubines of the six countries together for their own enjoyment, Li Jing is the same now, he does not have any psychological burden.
"The king's words are very true." Li Fu was embarrassed for a while, this matter can only be done by Li Jing, in the previous dynasties, people who took their beauty from the enemy's wives and daughters were included in the palace, but there were very few people like Li Jing. It's just that what Li Jing said makes sense, as long as the officials are clear and the Haiyan River is clear, who else will say anything except those enemies?
"Uncle Wang was invited here this time, mainly to talk about the queen? I don't know if Uncle Wang has any suggestions? Li Jing changed his title and addressed him as Uncle Wang, which shows that he attaches great importance to Li Fu, and discusses this matter within the clan.
"I don't know who the king likes?" Li Fu was embarrassed for a while, knowing that Li Jing must not have a good thing to find him, but he definitely didn't expect that Li Jing would actually discuss such a major topic with him.
Since Li Jing was ready to ascend the throne and become emperor, the selection of the queen has always been a major event, and the government and the opposition are discussing this topic.
?“ The Lan family has followed me for many years, and her father and queen mother all like her, and she gave birth to the eldest son of the king, so she is naturally the best candidate for the queen. Li Jing said without thinking. Although the world often talks about how Lan once married his brother, Li Jing doesn't care about this.
"The king, the minister has different opinions, the king is about to ascend the throne and call the emperor, the queen is the mother of a country, in the future, the mother of the world, the queen is gentle and virtuous, the minister is also very admired, if there is no other identity, the minister must agree, but if it is the mother of the world, the minister thinks something is wrong." Li Fu thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty is the queen, but you want to set up a former sister-in-law, how can this be spread to the world?" How can you convince the world? Will all the people of the world learn from the king? ”
Li Jing's face was stunned, he snorted coldly, and said: "What you said makes sense, the queen and the queen are still a little different, but the Lan family and this king are very close to each other, and they have made meritorious contributions to the governance of the back house over the years, not to mention giving birth to the eldest son of the king, this Dingbei is the prince in the future, and the prince's biological mother is not the queen, how can he sit in the position of the prince in the future?" "Li Dingbei is the eldest son of Wang, and there is nothing wrong with him. At a young age, he is very smart, he is loved by Li Jing, and he will definitely be the prince in the future, if his mother is not the queen, how can he stand on the throne of the prince in the future?
"Your Majesty, as long as the king is here, are you afraid that the prince's position will be unstable?" Li Fu said nonchalantly.
Li Jing shook his head, there is a big difference between Liyan and Lixian or Lichang, even if he is here, Li Dingbei has no identity, and it is not a simple matter to sit firmly on the throne of the prince. However, Li Jing can see it clearly, and Li Fu does not recommend Li Jing to make Lancôme the queen. He waved his hand and stopped talking, just walked into the distance.
Li Fu hesitated for a while, and finally bowed to Li Jing and slowly retreated, I am afraid that Li Jing still needs to make his own decisions about such a thing.
