"Yang Qing is flat, there is no need to be polite. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "After seeing Yang Zhen, Wanli put aside the government affairs at hand and waved at him. Then, he looked at the eunuchs who were accompanying him again: "You guys retreat first, I have something to say to Yang Qing alone." ”

The eunuchs naturally did not dare to disobey the emperor's wishes, they all agreed, and retreated one after another, and the last one to go out gently closed the palace door, and suddenly only Yang Zhen and Wanli Junchen were left in the side hall.

After a little hesitation, Wanli said to Yang Zhen with a guilty face: "Yang Qing, I have to say sorry to you for what happened yesterday." At that time, it was not good for me to reject Master Zhang's suggestion in front of so many officials, and not to mention the national abbot as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and I hope you can understand my difficulties. ”

Yang Zhen was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard the emperor speak, and then he felt a little moved in his heart. Although Wanli is not a big monarch now, but as the Son of Heaven, he does not have to consider the thoughts of his subordinates when making any decisions, and now only because of the personnel transfer in Jinyiwei, he actually put down his posture and apologized to his courtier, just this point, it can be seen that the emperor does not regard himself as an ordinary courtier, but has more feelings between friends.

If you change to other courtiers, after seeing the emperor's attitude, you will not be grateful, you will have to be sincerely afraid, after all, this kind of thing is a great honor, and it can be said to be unprecedented. But although Yang Zhen was shocked and moved, he was only slightly stunned, and then hugged his fist at the emperor: "Your Majesty doesn't need to say that, the minister naturally understands your difficulties." What's more, Jinyiwei is set up to help you share your worries, how dare you resentment because of some trivial things? ”

"Yang Qing, if you think so, I will feel more at ease. But in this matter, it is indeed that I have not considered it enough, which is why you have been wronged. Originally, with your achievements over the years and your ability, you should have been promoted to commander a long time ago, but it was because I was worried that the courtiers would oppose it that I never rewarded you, which caused this incident. Wanli shook his head with some self-reproach.

Indeed, if the emperor had promoted Yang Zhen to the governor of Jinyi Wei long ago, it would have been difficult to have any effect even if Zhang Juzheng wanted to put Wang Wei in. But because of various concerns, the emperor has not done this, thinking that as long as there is no official position higher than Yang Zhen in the Jinyi Guard, he will be the first leader of course, but he has left troubles.

After a pause, Wanli said again: "But you don't have to worry too much, I will remind Wang Guozhang when I arrive, telling him not to fight with you, otherwise I will definitely stand on your side." Do you understand what I mean? ”

"The minister understands, and the minister is grateful to His Majesty for the protection." Yang Zhen thanked again, and at the same time felt a little more relaxed. With the emperor's expression, Wang Wei's threats and constraints to his family were minimized. In this way, in addition to disgusting himself, Zhang Juzheng's hand does not seem to have a very significant effect.

When the emperor saw him say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, as the Son of Heaven, he had no need to specifically summon Yang Zhen to say this. But after yesterday, he always had some uneasy thoughts churning in his heart, and he always felt that he couldn't stand Yang Zhen, so he found him to talk about it.

In fact, just as Yang Zhen regarded the emperor as a friend, Wanli also regarded Yang Zhen as his friend, even his only friend. He didn't want his only friend to be upset because of this incident, and he would be even more lonely.

After a moment of silence, Wan Li said with some surprise: "Yang Qing, in fact, I announced that you entered the palace today not only for this matter, but there is another thing I want to ask you." ”

"Your Majesty, please speak." Yang Zhen calmed down and said. But I can't guess what the emperor wants to say to himself, according to reason, he is not qualified to ask about political affairs, let alone interfere.

After taking a breath, the emperor lowered his voice and said, "I remember that at the beginning of last year, you asked me for leave to go to Jiangnan to marry, and you looked quite excited and excited at that time, but is that so?" ”

"Huh?" Yang Zhen glanced at the emperor in a little surprise, not understanding why he asked this. But then he nodded truthfully: "That's true." The minister had an agreement with his wife, and then it was delayed for a year or two because of various things, so the minister was really anxious to marry her into the door at that time. ”

"And then?" Wanli asked again and again.

"What?" Yang Zhen was stunned, he really couldn't keep up with the little emperor's thinking.

"After you got married, what was your relationship with your wife? Do you still feel that way in your heart? Speaking of this, the emperor's face was red, his eyes were also drooping, and he didn't dare to look at Yang Zhen.

This time, Yang Zhen was really stunned, how could the emperor be so gossipy, and even ask about such a private matter as himself? Also, what does he mean by his current demeanor? Could it be ......

Thinking of this, Yang Zhen's body suddenly trembled, and he became a little nervous. A joke flashed through my mind - I treat you as a friend, and you actually want to sleep with me? ――Could it be that this Wanli Emperor actually had a heart of admiration for himself?

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Yang Zhen only felt a chill, although he did not discriminate against same-sex love, he still couldn't accept being favored by men. For a moment, he had the idea of running away, but in the end, he endured it with strong willpower.

Wanli, who was "shy", didn't see Yang Zhen reply for a long time, so he couldn't hold his breath: "Yang Qing, why don't you speak?" ”

"Oh?" Yang Zhen took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: "She is the beloved woman of the minister, after becoming a relative, I naturally have more closeness and admiration for her, if there is any change, it is that the relationship between the two of us is closer, and when we stay together, there is more peace of mind and not before." "Only by telling the true thoughts let the emperor die of that heart. As for whether it would make Wanli jealous and even hate himself because of this, Yang Zhen couldn't care about it at this time.

However, Wanli didn't show any jealousy or hatred after hearing this, but just frowned a little confused: "Is this the case?" Then when I got married yesterday, why didn't you feel this way? There was neither any expectation, nor any intimacy with the empress, only a kind of isolation and estrangement, and he couldn't even say a few words......" Speaking of the back, the emperor's face turned even redder, and his voice was a little inaudible.

But just these few words have made Yang Zhen relax and breathe a long sigh of relief - it turned out that he thought about it, and the emperor didn't have that kind of mind at all, just because the newlyweds were a little confused in their lives, so they came to him for help.

Thinking about it, this emperor is really pitiful, he is not old enough, he has to marry because of the needs of the country, and he is married to a strange woman who has never met. Even, even if I was confused, I couldn't find someone to talk to and ask for a while, so I could only ask my "friend" to ask.

After thinking about it for a while, Yang Zhen still decided to use the universal values of this era to give him the answer, otherwise something might happen: "That Your Majesty, in fact, it is normal for you to feel that you have no ministers." Because the minister and his wife had experienced some things before falling in love, they also understood each other, so they fell in love and finally came together. And now that I am Daming, I have always advocated the words of the matchmaker of my parents, and men and women have almost never met before they get married, so it is naturally difficult to have any feelings. The situation between you and the queen is also average, and it is normal for a person who has never met, let alone understood and communicated, to feel angry and have no ideas. But Your Majesty, since she has become a queen and is already your wife, it is necessary for you to love her well, it is natural for a man to protect a woman, not to mention that you are still the head of a country, and you should be an example for the world! ”

"Is that so?" The little emperor blinked his eyes and looked thoughtful.

Yang Zhen had no choice but to continue: "Moreover, the relationship between men and women is important in knowing and understanding, as long as you communicate more with the queen, the two sides can always have feelings, and then you will know the taste." After all, it takes time to have love, and nothing in this world can be achieved overnight. ”

After all, Yang Zhen is not one of those emotional experts in later generations, and what he said is only his personal opinion, but even so, it is not a small point for Wanli, and he nodded vigorously: "What Yang Qing said is that I should take this responsibility." It's just that some things are not something he can do if he wants to, especially his identity is there, and it is impossible to completely explain it by the relationship between ordinary men and women.

However, Yang Zhen had already exhausted his donkey skills at this time, so he could only nod as if encouragingly.

"Another point, that is, when I was in the cave room last night......" After holding back for a while, the little emperor finally brought up the biggest confusion in his heart: "I heard those people say that this is the best happiness of others, but why don't I feel this way?" ”

"Forehead......" This time, Yang Zhen was completely speechless. The emperor's lack of enlightenment may be one of the reasons, and the other is because of the atmosphere. He could very well imagine that when the emperor and empress performed the grand ceremony of the Duke of Zhou, there must be many pairs of concerned eyes around them, and this thing was always very awkward to be looked at, and it was difficult to make people happy-except, of course, some people with special habits, but obviously Wanli was not such a person.

So in the end, he could only say: "This cannot be generalized, it varies from person to person." In addition, His Majesty may try to make the attendants around him avoid it at this time, which may be of some use. He unconsciously gave birth to the illusion that he was a physiology teacher and was teaching junior high school students, which was really embarrassing......
