The back house has always been a place where all kinds of yin gather, whether it is the emperor's family, the rich family, or the ordinary people's home, this house fight is inevitable.

Compared with the folk house fight, the royal palace fight, which is related to the position of the heir to the empire, is even more powerful.

In the past, when there was only Chen Jing as a queen, the husband and wife were polite and harmonious with each other, which can be regarded as a very typical image of a political husband and wife, and naturally there will be no palace fights or anything like that during the period, but since Lin Zhe sealed the nine concubines, this palace fight seems to have spread overnight, why?

Because Lin Zhe has no son, the empire has no prince.

This also means that whoever in the harem can give birth to a son first, then this son is Lin Zhe's eldest son, not to mention whether he can inherit the throne, but the mother is sure that her son is expensive.

In fact, Lin Zhe didn't stay in the harem all day long and stayed with the concubines, in fact, most of his time was in the front hall to deal with military affairs, and he generally only went to the concubines at night, in the last month or so, when Lin Zhe was in the harem, he was either in Chen Jing or Fang Deconcubine, and the other concubines went very little.

So much so that there are still four concubines who have not yet received grace and rain!

In this case, the other concubines naturally didn't dare to say anything to Chen Jing, the queen, but they were a little jealous of the concubine, and even Chen Jing was jealous of the concubine, afraid that the concubine would give birth to a son earlier than the queen.

For these harem affairs, Lin Zhe didn't pay much attention to them in the past, but now he feels that something is wrong with the harem. He can't sit idly by, lest he make a big fuss.

So wait a few days. He didn't continue to Fang Deconcubine or Chen Jing's side, but went to the other eight concubines for a turn. I can't let people attack for more than a month and still maintain a virgin body.

Speaking of which, these nine concubines, including Fang De, are also hard-working people, and their entry into the palace is not their personal wishes, but to listen to the opinions of their father and brother in the family, and the father and brother family want them to attack Lin Zhe to have a son and a half daughter in order to make the family prosperous.

After entering the palace, in addition to being blackened and unfamiliar with life, there are various rules that restrict them, and this royal life is not easy.

Lin Zhe also knew these things, but he was powerless to change anything. He can't be like the protagonist in romance novels or film and television dramas, coaxed one by one.

For these people, strictly speaking, including Chen Jing, Lin Zhe's attitude is relatively bland, and he has no hatred for them, but he definitely doesn't have any liking, love and the like.

It's not easy to like someone!

At least so far, Lin Zhe has not really liked any woman in this era. On the contrary, the first love who met on campus in his previous life, and the woman who claimed to be his friend, but occasionally slept together, would be remembered by him occasionally.

After a few more trips to the other concubines, the harem was quiet again. Although Gong Dou is a woman's nature, in fact, except for Chen Jing, who is older, the others are relatively young. In ancient times, women generally got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and the women who came in this draft were naturally not much older. Generally around sixteen years old, when you are young, you will not be as persistent and good at palace fighting as those women who have lived in the deep palace for many years.

The harem calmed down. That is, he began to be busy moving to the new palace.

Although the overall building of the new palace was not completed, it did not affect the living part of the royal family in the second half, because Lin Zhe instructed everything to be low-key during the war, so there was no ceremony or anything like that, but the palace affairs department settled in first, and after the arrangements were made, Lin Zhe and Chen Jing and other members of the royal family entered the new palace under the escort of the guard division.

Lin Zhe had already come to see this new palace several times before, but Chen Jing, Fang Defei and others came to see it for the first time, although these women were also scholarly and beautiful, but it was also the first time they had seen such a large garden-style palace.

Chen Jing supported Mother Lin, and Mother Lin said while looking: "This place is bigger than the old body thought!" But as she said that, Lin Mu also frowned: "It's just that the pattern is a little insufficient, and it is difficult to show my royal style!" ”

Chen Jing listened and didn't speak, and naturally knew why Mother Lin said this, although the new palace covers a huge area, and the scale of the main project is very large, but it refers to the main hall and the front half and the surrounding large green square, and the second half of the royal living garden covers a wide area, but there are not many buildings, only more than ten small Western-style courtyards.

The whole palace contains the original Liangjiang Governor's Mansion and the large area in front and the areas on both sides, the main building is a brick and stone palace covering an area of more than 8,000 square meters, a total of three floors, and a total construction area of more than 20,000 square meters.

Behind the main hall is the garden building where the royal family lives and lives, with an area of more than 50,000 square meters, and there are 13 small courtyard buildings of various styles at home and abroad.

In front of the main hall, there is a huge square, the whole square is about 400 meters long, 150 meters wide, and the total area is about 60,000 square meters.

In addition to the above-mentioned backyards, main halls, and squares, the construction office has requisitioned the area around the palace, and it is expected that a unified leveling mission will be carried out, mainly for the construction of some important buildings, such as the offices of the high command and the cabinet departments, and large areas of open space will be planted with lawns and trees.

If only the three main parts of the backyard, the main hall, and the square are counted, as well as the area connected in the middle, then the total area of the palace is about 150,000 square meters.

However, if the area around the palace is included, which is expected to serve as the offices of various departments and green belts, then the area will exceed 500,000 square meters.

However, although it occupies a large area, there are not many buildings on it, and there is only one main hall that can be regarded as a large-scale building. Most of the thirteen small buildings of different styles in the back house are relatively small, covering an area of only a few hundred square meters. As the main hall of the backyard, that is, Lin Zhe's residence, it only covers an area of more than 800 square meters. The total building of the three-story Western-style Western-style building is only more than 2,000 square meters.

Therefore, the main project of the entire palace construction is the construction of the main hall, and the other projects are mainly the trimming of the land, grass planting and tree planting.

The idea of the entire palace and the surrounding area is generally set by Lin Zhe himself, mainly because Lin Zhe doesn't want the people on the side of the construction office to make a deep mansion and courtyard-style palace like the Forbidden City, in fact, if it is not for political needs, only according to his preferences, in fact, the entire area of 500,000 square meters is all made into green space, and only a small western-style building is needed in the middle. Simple and comfortable.

However, Lin Zhe doesn't like things that seem complicated and atmospheric, and likes simple and comfortable residences, but it doesn't mean that Lin's mother also likes it.

According to Lin's mother's thoughts, her sons are all emperors, and the place where she lives must be bigger than the entire Yuyao County, but now that she looks, the three-story building where Lin Zhe lives is only a few hundred square meters, although the details are quite precise, but Lin's mother is frowning. Not to mention that this courtyard is not as good as the official residence in the business zone, or even the courtyard of his hometown in Yuyao!

But she didn't say anything, although she was just an old lady, she was not an uninformed person who had been in charge of the Lin family firm for many years. She also knew that the empire's finances were tight now, and it was impossible to pull out a large amount of money to the construction office, and most of the limited funds of the construction office were used for the construction of many office buildings and the main hall. In other aspects, it is basically possible to save money, but even so, the construction office is still not enough. The Finance Department of the Palace Affairs Department has already given the Construction Office at least 10,000 taels of silver to subsidize the construction of the palace.

But Lin Mu felt that the subsidy from the Finance Department of the Palace Department was still less. Anyway, there are so many industries in his own commercial bank, and the royal family's industrial assets are already nearly 10 million, and there is no shortage of these tens of thousands of taels in his hands.

Mother Lin thought so in her heart, and also took her daughters-in-law to settle down, although she was already the queen mother, but Lin Zhe was waiting for the position, after Lin Mother was named the queen mother, she did not have the consciousness of the queen mother, she was still a traditional old lady, she personally took the daughters-in-law up and down to instruct the palace maids to settle the belongings brought from the temporary palace.

When the people in the harem were busy settling down, Lin Zhe was not there, he had a lot of things to do on weekdays, even if he moved today, he had to deal with official business.

Today, however, his official business is not in the temporary palace in the past, but in a small building near the main hall.

In order to let Lin Zhe work before the main hall was built, the Construction Office specially built a small building that was not too large to serve as Lin Zhe's personal office, but the place was small, and the people of the palace department could not all work together, only the secretariat accompanied Lin Zhe to work, and the other departments of the palace department could only be temporarily arranged outside.

As usual, after dealing with a large number of official documents, Lin Zhe began to meet with military and political dignitaries, and the first people he saw were military generals who had something to report.

After Shi Langyi and others from the military left, Li Ganzhou, the co-director of the Organization Department of the Cabinet, also walked into Lin Zhe's office.

"In accordance with the holy decree, the minister has drawn up a list of officials at all levels in various prefectures and counties in Fujian!" Li Ganzhou, the co-director of the Organization Department, is usually responsible for the appointment of local middle-level officials, but now that the Chinese Army has taken Fuzhou, the situation in Fujian as a whole has become relatively clear, and the Organization Department will naturally arrange for officials to take charge of administrative affairs in a timely manner.

Lin Zhe picked up the report and glanced at it slightly, most of the names on it were unheard of, and most of them were officials at the prefectural and county levels who originally served in Zhejiang and Jiangsu, from the county to the county, the county order, the prefecture, the prefecture and the prefect, etc., so he just glanced at it and said, "Let's talk about it!" ”

Li Ganzhou immediately said: "Among the various places in Fujian, the first priority is in Fuzhou, so in the selection of the prefect of Fuzhou, the ministers and other ministers have initially drafted three people, namely Wen Mengxiang, the magistrate of Yuhang County, Zhejiang, and Li Bingquan, the same governor of Taicang Prefecture, Jiangsu, ......"
