Entering the middle hall of the Qianqing Palace, everyone in Zhu Changluo's harem and their children were there, and of course, there was Zheng Guifei who was glaring angrily. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ye Xiang still asked for peace one by one according to etiquette, and then stood aside and said to Xi Li, "Auntie, I brought Chachen here, what do you want to do?" ”

Xi Li's eyes were red, obviously she had just cried, and she didn't say a word about the palace move, she asked resentfully, "You...... Why did you let Dongchang arrest my close attendant? I opened the library to get beautiful jade, and I sent them at the behest of Emperor Daxing. At that time, all the finances of this palace belonged to the emperor, so why couldn't it be taken? ”

Ye Xiang felt that what she said seemed to be very reasonable, so he threw the pot to Zuo Guangdou and said, "Well, Chachen, let's talk about it." ”

Who is Zuo Guangdou, Zhejiang Dao Yushi, what he does is to be unreasonable, unreasonable to stir up three points, naturally not afraid, he stepped forward and said righteously, "Emperor Daxing Zigong is still in the Renzhi Palace, and the selection of servants can have any evidence under the pretense of the will of Emperor Daxing, and dare to swear in front of the ancestors and ancestors of the Fengxian Palace, this is one of them; Second, even if they act on orders, why did Li Jinzhong and others open the treasure house in the middle of the night, and handed over to the ministers, and chose the servants not to be busy opposition, this matter is indeed true, and the factory guard will know it when he investigates; Third, Li Jinzhong and others have repeatedly disrespected the prince, which is already a capital crime, and it is His Royal Highness's magnanimity not to be held accountable. But as a courtier, how can I let the new son of heaven be humiliated by eunuchs? If it is not severely punished, everyone in the inner court can deceive my lord in the future, if the envoys of the country in Beijing know, where will my face remain? Therefore, the arrest of Li Jinzhong and others in Dongchang is to use practical actions to tell the world that Ming is humble and humble, not noble and lowly, so that the palace and the cultural relics of the Manchu Dynasty can understand who is the true son of my Ming Dynasty. ”

……

Seeing that everyone was speechless, Ye Xiang really wanted to clap his hands and applaud, but he was unreasonable and entangled to this point, and he was also convinced, convinced. Resisting the impulse, he reprimanded Zuo Guangdou, "Chachen is serious, today I asked you to come and ask your aunt to give you sin, why did you go somewhere else, you step back first." ”

Xi Li looked at Zuo Guangdou, who retreated in response, and was as angry as sifting chaff, how could she not know that they were playing a double reed, but what if she knew, now that all the minions have been pulled out, can she rely on herself as a woman to fight with these officials who often quarrel? What's more, she didn't take care of herself, she looked at Concubine Zheng Guifei, who had always been regarded as the backbone, and asked for help.

Zheng Guifei's heart was already half cold from the moment she saw the people brought by Ye Xiang. These people are all real power figures in the DPRK and Chinese military, not to mention Zhang Weixian and Huang Jiashan, even Yang Lian is enough to drink a pot by himself. If Yang Lian hadn't instigated Zhu Changluo to stay in front of the palace day and night when Wanli was sick, he would have changed his will a long time ago. Later, he was also one of the objections, and he was helpless about the itchy teeth he hated.

Looking at Xi Li's pleading gaze, she shook her head. The general trend has gone, even if you can live with Zhu Youxiao, what can you do? What kind of fight do you have to wait for others, you really killed Zhu Youxiao, I am afraid that no one present will end well, and the only one who will benefit is Zhu Youzhen, and I can't do that thankless thing. In addition, although his nephew Zheng Yangxing is the governor of the left army and the right capital, he only has the right to command the army. The imperial court has always practiced the use of literature to control the military, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies was not the leading military institution in the first place, and the capital divisions and guards under the jurisdiction of the Left Army were not near the Beijing Division, so there was no way to talk about a mutiny.

Concubine Zheng Guifei's original anger became dim, and in the end, she got up and walked out, but when she arrived at the gate of Qianqing Palace, she said to Ye Xiang, "Brother Xiao, let people sweep Renshou Palace." Then he ignored Xi Li's complaining gaze, and walked away without looking back, and his back looked a little gloomy.

Ye Xiang understands that he can't be soft-hearted now, although Concubine Zheng Guifei is the second wife of Zhu Youxiao's grandfather, but the country is more important than family affection, and only he has the ability to change the fate of this dynasty that is almost rotten to the bone, and power is so ruthless.

"Auntie, what do you mean? Can't you cure the sins of the courtiers? ”

Xi Li's eyes were dull and he didn't answer, Ye Xiang and everyone waited quietly. Zhu Huiyuan knew that her mother didn't know how many times she cried from yesterday to today, and she didn't know what it meant to stay in the Qianqing Palace, she didn't speak, she walked up to Ye Xiang with courage, pulled his sleeve, and said pitifully, "Big brother, don't make your mother angry, okay?" My mother's eyes are swollen from crying, I beg you. ”

Ye Xiang half-squatted down, habitually flicked the small mustache on the top of her head, held back her tears and said lovingly, "Eighth sister, there are some things that you don't understand because you are too young. But just remember that it's all for a better future for all of us. ”

Even if Ye Xiang himself does not fight, Xi Li can not deal with the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, according to the original history, Zhu Huiyuan will marry Gong Yonggu, although she herself escaped the doom of dying at the hands of thieves due to early death, but her beloved husband pulled five children who were just as old as her now but self-immolated and martyred when the rebels led by Li Zicheng invaded Beijing. And Xi Li, although he lived until 1674, the evening scene was bleak, where was the honor of the emperor's concubine.

Ye Xiang, I don't want history to repeat itself.

Zhu Huiyuan had just turned nine years old, and she didn't seem to understand, and then she remembered what happened in Xinuan Pavilion yesterday morning, so she asked, "Fifth sister said that our father is the emperor and we are the princess, is it true?" ”

"Of course, the fifth sister, the sixth sister, the eighth sister, although my father is Bintian, but you are all the most beautiful princesses of my Ming Dynasty, and no one can change this."

"Big brother, what about the fifth brother? Is he also a princess? But he is not pretty, and he does not like to bathe. ”

"Uh, this, the fifth brother is a boy, of course not a princess, he will become a prince."

"Ah, I see, just like King Hui and Uncle Gui." Zhu Huiyuan clapped her hands while jumping, and after she finished happily, she felt that something seemed wrong, "Uncle Wang, they have a home outside the palace, so wouldn't the fifth brother also live outside the palace, so there will be no one to play with me, I don't want it." Big brother, can you make him a princess, so that he can live in the palace. ”

Hui Wang Zhu Changrun, Gui Wang Zhu Changxuan are the same father and mother, and Zhu Changhao, the king of Rui, are all married and live outside the palace, and have not yet been sealed. Ye Xiang hasn't seen anyone in the past two days, but when he heard Zhu Huiyuan call him Uncle Wang, he knew that he was Zhu Changluo's half-brother.

According to the system, the prince who is not the prince will go to Fanguo when he becomes an adult. But Wanli's temperament, in addition to being a baby to the blessed king Zhu Changxun, seems to feel that the other children are sent with phone bills and always look indifferent, so not only do they delay their weddings again and again, but they also belong to the domain.

After hearing the second half of her sentence, Ye Xiang couldn't help but be speechless, it was really childlike, and quickly refused, "That's not good, the fifth brother will grow up in the future and get married." According to the rules of the ancestors, if you start a family, you can't live in the palace. Not only him, but you will also marry in the future. ”

Hearing about getting married, Zhu Huiyuan blushed, forgot all about asking Zhu Youzhen to play with her, stirred her little hands, twisted and said, "People don't want to get married, I want to be by my mother's side for the rest of my life, and no one else is allowed to bully her." ”

When Ye Xiang saw this, he knew that Xi Li and the others must have told her about these things, so he was a little depressed. As mentioned earlier, because of the generally low life expectancy, most women in this era married early, usually at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Early marriage is a vicious circle because the girl's body is not fully developed, and the survival rate of the children born is extremely low, and the health is not good. To change this situation, we have to start from the roots, that is, to improve medical technology, which will be an all-round and huge project.

Ye Xiang teased in view of the fact that the girls in later generations devoted themselves to their own small family after they got married, "I'm afraid that you won't think so when the time comes, but don't worry, the eldest brother will definitely help you find a wishful husband that you are satisfied with." It's still early, now you just need to do your filial piety in front of your aunt. ”

In fact, it is not so much that she is filial piety, but that she is happy. Zhu Huiyuan saw that the little secret in her heart was promised, and she didn't delve into it, so she nodded and happily returned to Xi Li's side.

British Gong, Xi Li and others will naturally hear Ye Xiang's meaning, that is to say, Ye Xiang promised Zhu Changluo's harem in disguise through dialogue that he would treat them and their children well in the future.

Ye Ming came up, saw that Xi Li's expression had returned to normal, and no longer proposed to deal with Zuo Guangdou, and said, "Today, all the aunts are here, I will simply make it clear, I think women are not suitable for politics, this is not discrimination, but I think women can have higher achievements in other fields." Although there is Wu Cong in history, there is only one person so far. Before or after, there will be no more empresses. Even if she became the emperor, she didn't even dare to comment on herself when she was dying, and what she left to future generations was just a wordless tablet for others to comment...... At this point, I hope that all the aunts will think twice, and leave first. ”

Ye Xiang said that, and led everyone to leave, but was stopped by Xi Li.

"Brother school, stay ...... I'd like to ask about Concubine Feng......"

Ye Xiang saw that her attitude had changed, but she was still worried about her false name, so he said sincerely and resolutely, "It's late, you can't let me take back the decision I made in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military in the morning, isn't this a slap in the face." What I said to the eighth sister just now is actually for you, and I will treat all aunts equally, so there is no room for negotiation about the matter of sealing the concubine. Moreover, now that my father is in the sky, do you have to distinguish between high and low? ”

Dong Li, Fu Shi, Zhao Shi, Shao Shi and others agreed in their hearts after hearing this, who said that it was not, it only made sense when Zhu Changluo was alive. Now, he is gone, and all he wants is to take the eldest child and live the rest of his life in peace.

"Then, Wang Cairen ......" Xi Li now has no time to care about how Ye Xiang will deal with Li Jinzhong and the others, she knows that Wang Cairen's affairs are the biggest obstacle to bowing her head.

Ye Xiang knew that Wang Cairen was beaten to death by Xi Li, and Wang Cairen asked Liu Liangxiang to write a suicide note on his deathbed, saying, "I have a grudge against Xi Li, and it is difficult to extend my hatred", which shows how much she hates Xi Li. Now he is also very embarrassed, but in the end he has to choose to let go, "Auntie, my mother has been dead for more than a year, if I don't resent it, it must be false." But what can be done? Will the eighth sister be as lonely as me when the time comes? Hey, let me be an unfilial son once, I think if my mother has a spirit in heaven, her old man will forgive me. ”

After a long time, Xi Li asked uncertainly, "What do you say?" ”

"You don't joke." This is Ye Xiang's firm commitment in front of the military Zhang Weixian, Huang Jiashan, Yang Lian, Li Shi and Yushi Zuo Guangdou.

At this point, Xi Li knew that there was no hope for the Empress Dowager Zhangyin, and after judging the situation, she made a decision, "Brother Xiao'er, I want to move back to the original Fengchen Palace, so that I can have a companion." After she gets married, how about going to the Silent Palace again? ”

Fengchen Palace, one of the four palaces after Ciqing Palace, was originally where she lived. At the same time, the palace was inhabited by Dong Li and Zhu Youzhen; Zhaojian Palace is inhabited by Fu and five sisters and six sisters; Because Chenghua Palace is the residence of Wang Cairen, Zhu Youxiao lived by himself before, and he has not had time to live in it, and the Zhao family and the Shao family, who are pregnant with Liujia, have been living in the Qianqing Palace with Zhu Changluo, so they can move over.

Of course, Ye Xiang agreed, he was still young, and it would take more than ten years for his heirs to live independently, and at that time, several younger brothers and sisters had already left the palace and started a family. In the end, Ye Xiang and Xi Li discussed in front of everyone and decided that the original palace would not change, and Wang An would send someone to clean up the Fengchen Palace overnight, so that Xi Li would officially move in after announcing the ministers tomorrow.

After the event, Ye Xiang, who had a relaxed face, walked out of the Qianqing Palace, stood on His Majesty Dan, looked back at the blue sky on the roof of the Qianqing Palace, and thought to himself that the wings of his little butterfly could finally start to flapp, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.
