PS: At the beginning of the month, I was busy with few updates, I was embarrassed to ask for a monthly pass, and now I am asking for a monthly pass recommendation ticket for a reward, please smash it over~

Ye Yingwu's harem is not small compared to the tracheitis of Emperor Wen of Sui, but compared with most kings, it is indeed a little smaller, not to mention the seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, and even the three palaces and six courtyards are not complete, the number of concubines in his harem who have been married to Ye Yingwu can be counted on two hands, and even several times the Ministry of Rites persuaded Ye Yingwu to choose a draft girl, but Ye Yingwu refused. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's not just because Ye Yingwu feels that it doesn't make much sense to put so many women in the palace, and in the end they are either hollowed out by themselves, or they are released as they are, but also because the women that Ye Yingwu already has are definitely worthy of being Tianzi and have very different personalities, which can already satisfy Ye Yingwu's interests in all aspects.

What's more, the more beautiful women tend to be smarter, and vases and breasts (harmony) are actually really hard to find, especially in this era when most women have been systematically educated by ladies. These uneasy wives and concubines, Ye Yingwu is almost unable to deal with them, if there are so many dozens, Ye Yingwu will simply go crazy.

Of course, outsiders will not know Ye Yingwu's difficulties, so in their opinion, His Majesty is just because his vision is too high. To use an inappropriate analogy, after eating swan meat, naturally you will no longer find the ugly duckling delicious.

Thinking about the elite army policy implemented by Ye Yingwu when he formed the Tianwu Army, everyone can better understand His Majesty. His Majesty, who is almost perfect in the world, requires the most perfect in everything, which is also in line with his character, so when the Tianwu Army was first established, there were not many people, but it can definitely be one as ten. And Ye Yingwu's harem concubines, there are not many people, but they are definitely the color of the country.

Over the years, Ye Yingwu's love entanglements with the former Song princess about the family and country, as well as the stumbling along the way with the Wang family and the Lu family's lady, with the rumors of the six doors leaking out intentionally or unintentionally, let the entire government and the opposition recognize a flesh-and-blood Ming Emperor.

Men hope that one day they will also be able to be resourceful, calmly turn around under the attack of their opponents, and protect their women; And women are even more nymphomaniacs, dreaming that one day there will be such a person stepping on the colorful auspicious clouds to fall from the sky, put themselves in their arms, and block any wind and rain.

It can be said that in other aspects, many people may still have a lot of complaints about Ye Yingwu, but in this aspect, he is definitely worshipped.

What's more, it is a worship of Ye Yingwu's pickling skills that are 700 years ahead of this era - although Ye Yingwu doesn't have any skills when he asks himself, he can only blame the people of this era for being too subtle, after all, sometimes you can't coax it when you need it.

Whatever the reason, these concubines who accompanied the side of the Ming monarch were even deified along with their husbands, and existed in the rumors of the streets and alleys as an ethereal but fascinating identity.

So when these jinshi realized that this crisp voice was coming from an imperial concubine, their eyes became a little complicated. Envy, respect, and even some jealousy.

After all, standing behind that thin curtain must be two beauties who have captivated the country and the city. Of course, they also know very well that if they have the slightest disrespect, the Praetorian Guard soldiers who are eyeing them next to them are not vegetarians.

From the moment they entered the palace, the Jinshi felt that the eyes of these Praetorian Guard soldiers were awe-inspiring, as if they were eager to eat them cleanly.

Whether it was feeling the sincerity of Hui Niang's sentence "Pillars of the Country", or being a little disappointed not to see the true faces of the two imperial concubines behind the curtain, or just being looked at by the Praetorian Guard soldiers led by Sun Qiang, all the Jinshi bowed their heads slightly.

Although there is no momentum that His Majesty will not give up without giving an explanation, what should be said is what should be said after all, and they are all people who have come here step by step, and there is no reason to give up halfway.

A jinshi immediately stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and said without humility or arrogance: "Xinke Jinshi Yao has seen two mothers first. We waited for the Jinshi to knock outside the palace gate, not because we didn't know the laws of the Ming Dynasty, but because we wanted to meet Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty if the final palace examination of the imperial examination could be carried out, and if so, when and where? The palace test is spring, and it is already the end of summer at this time, so should it be delayed until the beginning of spring next year? And His Majesty said at that time that the palace examination was held in Luoyang, and now I wonder if His Majesty still has to follow the will? If it is not held, then we have been stranded in Luoyang for three months, and we have not seen the officials of the Ministry and the Hanlin Academy solve the next official arrangements, I don't know how Your Majesty and the imperial court will explain? ”

"Please Your Majesty arrange for me to wait!" Several Jinshi took a step forward and said in unison, facing not the place where Hui Niang and the two of them were standing behind the curtain, but the empty dragon chair in front of them.

"Please Your Majesty arrange for me to wait!" All the Jinshi also cheered up at this time, and at the same time shouted, what Yao Xian said just now really hit what they thought in their hearts. In the past four months, although the household officials have been providing them with entanglement, everyone also knows that it will definitely not work to be idle like this, no matter how they deal with it, the court always needs to give an answer!

Behind the curtain, Hui Niang also subconsciously glanced at Gesang, this Yao Xian was really in a word, and directly hit the key point of this matter, and it was obvious that these Jinshi were also looking at him before, otherwise it would be impossible to respond in groups.

These Jinshi can come to this point, they can definitely be called talents, it is impossible to say that they do not have the slightest covetousness for the top three, so it is destined that it is difficult for them to really unite as one, which is why Ye Yingwu can rest assured that this matter will be handed over to Hui Niang and Gesang, even if it is a group of geniuses, with Hui Niang and Gesang Bingxue's smart minds, they can also defeat them, because this is a group of rabble, and when they stand together, they may not even be able to exert their abilities.

And if he saw today's scene, maybe Ye Yingwu knew that he was wrong.

This Yao Xian has obviously done to convince the public, even if it is only in this one matter, but at least this one thing is imminent and must be solved for all the Jinshi, so as long as Yao Xian has appeal and control over everyone in this matter, this is enough.

What Wang Qinghui and Gesang need to face now is not the rabble that Ye Yingwu envisioned, but a whole, a whole composed of the future pillars of the Ming Dynasty and the current talents.

Hui Niang looked at Gesang slightly, Gesang didn't have much worry on his face, but showed a smile, and his eyes widened. The time spent with Gesang was not short, basically to the point where she couldn't look up and see her, but it was the first time she saw Gesang's state Hui Niang, and this was also the third rare state for her to see this Tubo princess.

On weekdays, Gesang is generally a low-key person, and even in this palace, it is almost the air, and he puts on a posture of respecting Hui Niang, and even Hui Niang's former personal maid Qing'er, seeing this Niang Niang who competes for favor with her own master, can't raise her fighting spirit.

Slapping people don't hit smiling faces, everyone understands this truth.

In front of Ye Yingwu, Gesang seems to be a different person, curiosity, cowardice and other temperament and expressions that are rarely felt in her can be found, in the face of the strong Ye Yingwu, Gesang has completely succumbed to his "obscenity", while like a curious baby wants to think through this man who aroused her great interest, and on the other hand, he is helpless to ask for him.

But now Gesang, Hui Niang dares to guarantee the ticket, this Tianshan Snow Lotus-like white and beautiful Tubo princess, with a smile on her face with a hint of coldness and fighting spirit, seems to be ready to crush the opponent in front of her at any time.

A bit like ・・・・・・ own husband?

Suddenly Hui Niang understood that this girl had learned the whole way Ye Yingwu crushed her, and it was obviously these Jinshi in front of her who were crushed.

"You have followed Your Majesty all the way north, and you must know why Your Majesty gave up the palace examination in Nanjing and went north when the palace examination is about to begin." Seeing the invitation given by Hui Niang, Gesang did not hesitate at all, and stepped forward directly, his voice was beautiful but with a slight chill.

It's like the cold ice that has not melted for thousands of years in Qilian Mountain.

The Jinshi led by Yao Xian all frowned slightly, although this lady didn't know where to come, but obviously not as good as the one just now, the chill in this voice didn't know if it was natural or angry, but everyone could vaguely perceive a breath from the superior, and this breath was definitely not cultivated in a year and a half, it was definitely a person with a noble status since childhood who could say such plain and cold words.

Former Princess Song Xin'an?

All the jinshi couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts, it is rumored that Princess Xin'an is extremely beautiful, not to mention, she is also resolute, smart and clever, not to mention that she followed Ye Yingwu into the palace to fight Jia Dao, but later followed Ye Yingwu's side, it is said that she helped His Majesty and the Queen Mother to stop the officials of the Ministry of Rites who wanted to persuade His Majesty to draft a draft.

The six departments of the Ming Dynasty seem to be the most idle in the Ministry of Rites, but everyone knows that from the former Ministry of Rites Shangshu Chen Zongli, to the left waiter Jiang Wanzai, and the right waiter Ye Yingji, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, especially Jiang Wanzai is Jiang Wanli's younger brother, Ye Yingji is Ye Yingwu's brother, and being able to stop these people shows that Zhao Yunshu is definitely not just a simple weak princess.

Without waiting for the Jinshi to come to a conclusion in their hearts, the voice said unhurriedly: "In the next four months, the war in the north was tense, and the Ming soldiers fought bloodily on the front line, in order to ensure the victory of the Youyan Northern Expedition and recover the lost territory of three hundred years, His Majesty personally led the army north to Shanxi to block Kublai Khan's army, the battle of Qinshui was fierce, and His Majesty personally put on armor to go into battle when it was urgent. The battle is still fierce. The government and the opposition know this, and you must know it too. ”

Without waiting for Gesang to finish speaking, all the Praetorian Guard soldiers subconsciously straightened their chests, their group of people came back from the front line a month ago, and they all experienced the Battle of Qinshui, a battle that decided the fate of the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia to a certain extent, and also saw Ye Yingwu with armored cavalry to smash the enemy formation, and now Niangniang mentioned it in an extremely appreciative tone, how could they not be proud?

And the eyes of all the soldiers are also focused on those jinshi, as long as they dare to say something disrespectful to His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty, the brothers will chop up all of them and sprinkle them all into the water to pay tribute to the heroic souls who died there!

"What Niangniang said is very true," Yao Xian hurriedly said, "The battle of Qinshui is related to the success or failure of the Northern Expedition, and it is also related to the life and death of the Ming Dynasty. However, what Niangniang said, I am afraid that it is ・・・・・・ with today's events."

"Nothing to do with today's events?" Hui Niang took the words from Gesang with a smile, "Then the palace will explain." In fact, a few days ago, His Majesty was still sitting in Taiyuan Mansion, but many courtiers in the court asked His Majesty to return to Nanjing to preside over the overall situation, and even Lu Xianggong personally came to invite him. His Majesty has always respected the courtiers in the court, and the ministers invited each other to go from Angelica, so His Majesty rode straight to the capital with a hundred escorts, otherwise either today or tomorrow, the palace test should be held here. ”

After a pause, Hui Niang continued: "Dare to ask you, do you think there is anything wrong with Your Majesty doing this?" ”

Is there anything wrong with Your Majesty doing this? Hui Niang's question made all the Jinshi stunned.

Not to mention that in front of so many Praetorian Guard soldiers, they didn't have the courage to say a word "no", just Hui Niang explained the reason for His Majesty's departure, and they couldn't refute it. It can't be said that Your Majesty should refuse the advice of your courtiers, you must know that they will also enter the court as officials in the future, and maybe they will face such a situation at any time - after all, Your Majesty's character of liking to run around is well known to everyone - and to say the word "no" now is really to shoot yourself in the foot.

Even Yao Xian, who was confident just now, rolled his throat at this time, and said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty is very appropriate to deal with it like this." ”

"That's right!" The jinshi naturally understood what to do at this time, and they reacted quickly one by one.

Behind the curtain, Gesang looked at Hui Niang helplessly: "Sister, are you going to make them all grass on the wall?" ”

Hui Niang shrugged her shoulders and continued: "Your Majesty gave this palace full authority to deal with this matter when he left, so according to the meaning of Your Majesty and this palace, you have two choices. ”

Yao Xian and the others didn't dare to say much at this time, and they pricked up their ears one after another. If you really want to argue, these two sharp-toothed mothers have occupied the moral high ground, coupled with the posture of the Praetorian Guards soldiers next to them, they really don't have the courage to continue arguing, anyway, everyone came to ask for an explanation at first, and now that His Majesty is willing to give a solution, then you might as well listen to it first.

It's better than being frozen here.

"First, if you think you are ready, you can hold the palace exam here tomorrow, and then it will be jointly invigilated by Concubine Chen of the palace and Sister Concubine Li, so as to represent the Son of Heaven." Hui Niang said in a deep voice, her voice was calm and dignified, and there was no room for provocation, "Second, you can follow the fleet south and return to Nanjing City. Your Majesty will preside over the palace examination for everyone in Nanjing, and of course Your Majesty also has a condition, please write a policy about what you have seen and heard in the past four months in addition to the articles to be tested on the day of the palace examination, as part of the examination. ”

Before the voice fell, the jinshi were already talking.

These two ladies have already reported to the house, even if they usually don't pay attention to the harem concubine titles issued by the government, they have more or less heard these titles in the teahouse and tile house.

Princess Chen, Queen Qinghui, Concubine Li, Princess Gesang of Tubo.

It was not Her Royal Highness Princess Xin'an who everyone expected before, and obviously it was Concubine Li who spoke last now, and Concubine Li's performance had already surprised everyone, not to mention Concubine Chen, who had been controlling the situation and direction from beginning to end.

His Majesty's harem is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

It's no wonder that His Majesty's vision will be relatively high, such a woman, how many people will there be in the world?

But even if they are so emotional, the Jinshi still won't admit that they are not even as good as the two women, let alone agree to let the two concubines invigilate, not to mention what form the two concubines will take to invigilate, even if His Majesty is really not there, it should be the queen mother who came in person to be worthy of the word "palace examination" and the majesty of the entire imperial examination that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

"The contemptible chooses the second path." Yao Xian said without hesitation.

Soon all the jinshi chimed in.

And Hui Niang obviously expected this result and winked at Gesang next to her.

Gesang chuckled, in fact, Ye Yingwu never mentioned the first option, it was just made up by Hui Niang.
