Chapter 18

After the palace maid went out, Zhang Yan knelt on the ground and said, "The concubine is guilty, please punish the emperor." Zhu Youxiao hurriedly went to help her and said, "What is the queen's crime, get up quickly." ”

Zhang Yan didn't get up and said: "There are three crimes of concubines, one is that they don't know the emperor's true dragon body; The two even gave things to the man privately; The purpose of the three entering the palace is different. Please punish the emperor. ”

Zhu Youxiao laughed: "So that's the case, I forgive you for your innocence, that's okay, right?" Rise up, my queen. ”

Zhang Yan still lowered her head and did not move: "If you are wrong, you are wrong, and it is not the emperor's forgiveness." ”

Zhu Youxiao understood, and said: "I don't know my identity, because I was just a grandson at that time, and I gave things privately, I was unmarried at the time, you were not married, why can't you give things, didn't the queen come to the palace to serve me, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Yan bowed to the ground and said: "Emperor Xie solves the doubts of the concubines, let the concubines serve the emperor." After speaking, he got up and stood beside Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao secretly praised her for her cleverness, so that she told everything before, whether it was Zhu Youxiao or others, she couldn't talk about her anymore, this little lady is a powerful character, I like it.

Zhang Yan said that she was serving him, but she stood by with a red face and did not move. After all, it's a daughter's house, and it's normal to be shy. Zhu Youxiao smiled: "Let's let me serve the queen." Holding her hand, the two walked together into the tent and gently took off her coat.

Zhang Yan is only fifteen years old, but she is relatively precocious, her chest is already quite large, and a plump protrusion suddenly arises under her thin waist, which makes Zhu Youxiao immediately have the urge to howl at the moon. Fortunately, he was still sane and knew that early pregnancy was not good for the fetus and the mother, so he asked her in a low voice about the date of the day, knowing that it was a safe period before he was relieved.

Although Zhu Youxiao is a chick, he has never eaten pork and has always seen a pig walking. So this night, he was extremely gentle, suppressed his desires, and became Zhang Yan's teacher, so that she sank into the desires of the two step by step.

When I woke up in the morning, I only felt refreshed, and looked at Zhang Yan who was sleeping soundly next to me, with a face as bright as a peach blossom, I only felt that if I had a wife like this, what more could I ask for from my husband.

Zhu Youxiao, who was in a good mood, decreed: because of his meritorious work in the selection of marriage, Liu Dai, the younger brother of the emperor's ancestor Zhaofei, was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the imperial father Xi Li selected the attendant as Concubine Kang, the Eastern Li selected the attendant as Concubine Zhuang, and Zhao Xuanzhi as the Duan concubine.

This will caused an uproar in the court, first of all, Yang Lian was troubled, thinking that Xi Li Xuanzhi had bad intentions when the emperor ascended the throne, held the emperor hostage, and wanted to do things like hanging the curtain, so he could not be named a concubine.

"With bad intentions, Yang Qing can actually peek into people's minds? If you want to do it, you can't do it, how can you know what you want to do if you don't do it? The first emperor himself said that he would be named the imperial concubine, was Yang Qing there that day? In the matter of choosing marriage, Li Xuanzhi has already made meritorious contributions, and if he is not named the imperial concubine, he will not be able to be named Concubine Kang now? ”

Yang Lian was speechless for a while, and Zhu Youxiao continued: "I can't call the shots in royal affairs?" ”

Yang Lian immediately knelt on the ground and confessed his guilt again and again. Zhu Youxiao flicked his sleeves and turned to leave. I don't have time to play with you, I want to accompany my wife.

Of course, it is impossible to accompany his wife now, and when he returned to the palace, he called Wei Zhongxian and asked what Dongchang had done during this time. Wei Zhongxian took out a booklet and respectfully presented it in front of him. "Your Majesty, the slaves and maids are following the emperor's instructions these days to investigate all kinds of news in the Jingshi, and this booklet is the basic situation of the hundred officials." He took out another booklet, "This is the price of various things in Jingshi." As for the matter of the spy, it was told by the slave maid to be investigated by Jinyiwei, and it has not been reported yet. ”

Zhu Youxiao first looked at the first booklet, and found that it was recorded very carefully, like Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou drinking in it, turning a page, it was Yang Lian's matter again, and then turning it again, it was still Yang Lian. He closed the booklet and threw it directly on the ground, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly picked it up, but he knelt on the ground.

Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Is there only one Yang Lian in a hundred officials? Why is it always his business? ”

"Please forgive the emperor, this Yang Lian is indeed more troublesome, he keeps getting together with some people, the slave and maid are still a little careful, this person colluded with Wang An, disrespectful to the emperor, the slave and maid want to find his fault, and then report it to the emperor, so I ordered the following to take a good look at this person."

"Oh, do you remember this, Wei Banban, I think now, people, be broad-minded, this person has done something that makes me very unhappy, but this person does these things, at least in his opinion, for the good of this court or for my good, which means that he did not have bad intentions when he did these things, then we can't always hold grudges, it's right to spy on him, he can collude with Wang An, of course, he may also collude with other people, if he does bad things, we have to deal with him, but not for revenge, if he does good things, We also want to praise him, you know? ”

"The slave and maid understand, thank the emperor for mentioning it." Wei Zhongxian actually didn't quite understand, it was the emperor who instigated himself to take revenge at that time, and now it is the emperor who wants to take revenge on himself, but he has a simple principle, what the emperor says is what he is, and the emperor says how to do it, since the emperor means not to remember the hatred that Yang Lian dealt with him back then, then forget it, anyway, now he can't do what he does to himself, of course, he can't do anything to him.

"It's good that you understand. Now you mainly check the bribery of various officials, and in detail, write and submit it in a special booklet, by the way, this thing was not written by you. ”

"The emperor knows that the slave maid is not very literate, and the slave maid asked Wang Tiqian to help write it."

"Yes, if you are not good at it, you will leave it to someone who is good at it, and we are not immortals, everything will be impossible, so if you can use people, use the right people, things will be easy to do. No matter what happens, the most taboo thing is not knowing how to pretend to understand. ”

sent Wei Zhongxian, he called someone to pass the message, had dinner at Kunning Palace at noon, and then went to the study. took a pen and wanted to copy a love poem to the queen, but after thinking about it, I always couldn't think of it, only to blame the poets of the Ming and Qing dynasties for being too famous, and I didn't learn it in middle school textbooks, so I had to throw away the pen in disappointment and go directly to Kunning Palace.

Zhang Yan led someone to greet him at the palace gate, and he stepped forward to help her and said, "What did Baozhu do today?" Zhang Yan didn't let him help, the palace maid next to her gently hugged her, and let her stand up from the squatting state, but at this time, Zhu Youxiao suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembered a poem, and couldn't help but read it out, "The waiter helped up the delicate and weak, and it was the time of the new inheritance." Zhang Yan couldn't help but be ashamed, glanced at the unorthodox emperor, and started to accompany him into the palace to start eating.
