In the first year of the first year, March 18, it is advisable to move and avoid weddings and funerals.

Slowly opening his eyes, Emperor Yaoqi gently stretched his waist, looking at Empress Zhang who was still sleeping on the side, Emperor Yaoqi smiled with satisfaction. I have dreamed countless times that I will enter with my beloved girl, and I will wake up naturally every time I sleep, and now it can be regarded as a reality.

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about? Can you talk to the concubine? When Emperor Yaoqi was sighing about his life, Empress Zhang also opened her eyes and said with a smile.

"I'm wondering if my ancestors have a spirit and chose such a good queen for me!" Gently pinched Empress Zhang's nose, and said softly to Emperor Qi.

Laughing softly, Empress Zhang said coquettishly: "Thank you Your Majesty for your concubine, it is the blessing of your concubine to be able to marry Your Majesty!" ”

Under the service of Empress Zhang, Emperor Yaoqi got up and got dressed, and suddenly Emperor Yaoqi remembered something, so he asked: "Baozhu, what did the Empress Dowager say when she found you?" ”

Shaking her head gently, Empress Zhang said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, don't ask, it's all because the concubine is not in good health." ”

Holding Empress Zhang's hand, Emperor Yaoqi frowned and asked, "Did the Queen Mother blame you?" If it's me going to explain to the Queen Mother! ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not take care of this matter, and it is not uncommon for a mother-in-law to take care of her daughter-in-law in the people. This is the palace, and the queen mother said that there was something wrong with the concubines, and it was not a big deal. If Your Majesty goes, it will be a big deal, and the reputation of the concubine will be ruined! Queen Zhang lowered her head, the more she spoke, the quieter her voice became, and her tone was a little aggrieved!

Holding Empress Zhang in his arms with a smile, Emperor Yaoqi comforted softly: "Okay, Baozhu has been wronged, I know." ”

"Your Majesty, it's nothing if the concubine is wronged, it's just that the wedding has been so long, and Your Majesty is here with the concubine for half a month. The concubine's body is not a taste in her heart, looking at Lan Guifei's belly, the concubine feels sorry for the emperor. Leaning his head on Emperor Yaoqi's chest, he said with a face full of grievances.

Laughing and lifting Empress Zhang's head, Emperor Yaoqi said in a deep voice: "Okay, Baozhu!" Don't be like this, you are the queen, and the son you gave birth to is the eldest son, and no one can envy him. Besides, we are all still young, take your time and don't rush! It's a big deal, I'll come a few more times, that's it! ”

"Your Majesty!" Twisting her body slightly, Queen Zhang's face was slightly red.

"By the way, I ask you, do all the women who were selected to enter the palace last time have a grade?" After a deep sigh, Emperor Yaoqi asked with some curiosity.

Looking at Emperor Yaoqi in a daze, Empress Zhang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why did you remember to ask this?" ”

"No, then Liu Caijin, who pinched my shoulder, how could she have the identity of Caijin?" Emperor Yaoqi frowned lightly and asked with some puzzlement.

"Your Majesty, the fifty selected show girls all have the same identity when they enter the palace, that is, lady, lady is the lowest grade. Because of the difference in their appearance, according to the rules of the palace, each grade is different. The highest is a concubine, a crowned queen. Like Concubine Liang's sister and Concubine Chun's sister, they are concubines who have been entitled, and Concubine Lan is a special order of His Majesty, which does not conform to normal procedures! Empress Zhang said lightly while tidying up for Emperor Yaoqi.

nodded slowly, and said with some confusion: "Then how are the grades of these concubines divided?" ”

"In this palace, all the ladies who have just entered the palace are ladies, and above the ladies are the attendants, and then the nobles, talents, beauty, Zhaoyi, and Jieyu." Empress Zhang talked about the level of the concubines in the palace one by one, and her tone was very indifferent, for her, this was very normal.

Emperor Yaoqi, who was standing on the side, was stunned, so many grades, seeing that Empress Zhang was still going to say, Emperor Yaoqi smiled bitterly and said, "Are you, Concubine Chun and Concubine Liang not here?" ”

"Of course, above Jieyu is a concubine, and then a concubine, the emperor has no concubines now, and there are two concubines, that is, good concubines and pure concubines. Above the concubine is the concubine, and there is one in this emperor, which is Concubine Lan! As for the concubine, that is the imperial concubine, that is, the main entry of the four palaces in the east and west, and the emperor has not yet been canonized. Then there is the queen, the master of Kunning Palace, there can only be one of this, that is, the concubine! Empress Zhang smiled sweetly at Emperor Yaoqi, and said coquettishly.

Gently patting his forehead, Emperor Yaoqi smiled bitterly and said, "This is too much, how much does it take to get it full like this?" ”

"This won't be too much! As soon as the queen enters, the imperial concubine enters eight, the concubine enters sixteen, the concubine enters thirty-six, the concubine enters seventy-two, and there is no standard number as for the rest. However, there are very few emperors who have all of these, but there are not many who are as few as the emperor. It's just that the emperor is still young, and he is not in a hurry to add a harem, and the concubine will pay attention to it! Gently buckle Emperor Yaoqi's belt and smooth out the wrinkles on her clothes, Empress Zhang said with a smile.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Emperor Yaoqi said with some emotion: "There are so many entries, and there is only one emperor, I now understand why so many emperors have a short life." This can't be controlled at all! Do you think the emperor is the first big pervert? ”

"Your Majesty, how can you say that? His Majesty is the lord of the dead, rich all over the world, and the entry of the harem is less, how to match the identity of the emperor. If it is known by the entry of foreign countries, the prestige of the emperor will be gone, and Your Majesty must not say such things in the future! Frowning slightly, Empress Zhang said coquettishly.

Nodding slowly, Emperor Yaoqi knew that there was no point in arguing with Empress Zhang for this, and after glancing at Empress Zhang, Emperor Yaoqi asked with some hesitation: "Baozhu, does that Liu Cai need to be promoted?" Give him a promotion? ”

"Your Majesty, isn't this in the court, promoted to a thousand officials? However, the emperor has just favored him, and he should indeed be rewarded, I don't know what the emperor wants to give? Laughing softly, Empress Zhang said in a soft tone.

Touching his nose gently, Emperor Yaoqi hesitated and said, "How about sealing a concubine?" It's the same as Concubine Liang and Concubine Chun? ”

"Your Majesty, this harem is the same as the court, no matter what is rewarded or punished, what is important is a reward and punishment. Lan Guifei's matter, the concubine didn't say anything, she followed Your Majesty since Her Majesty didn't ascend the throne, and now she is pregnant with a dragon seed, and the palace didn't say anything! But if the emperor favors one and seals the concubine, it will be a bit too much! Empress Zhang looked at Emperor Yaoqi cautiously and whispered.

"Have you been rewarded? The merits of this court can be evaluated, how can your merits be evaluated? Doesn't it look at who the emperor likes? Emperor Yaoqi looked at Empress Zhang inexplicably and asked with a smile.

Holding Emperor Yaoqi's hand, Empress Zhang smiled and said: "Of course not, but it mainly depends on who His Majesty likes, and the other is to give birth to a son, as long as a son is born, it is the greatest credit!" ”

"I don't think that's the case, back then, my grandmother Wang only entered and gave birth to the first emperor, but she still entered until she died. In the end, it's still who the emperor favors, but what Baozhu said makes sense, I can't do that! Give this Liu Caijin a mention! Let's be a Zhaoyi first! As for the future, let's wait until later! Gently brushing his clothes, Emperor Yaoqi smiled gently.

Although Emperor Yaoqi had been laughing and his voice was very gentle, Empress Zhang could feel that Emperor Yaoqi was angry. Empress Zhang also knew what the reason was, it should have sounded the events of the year. Without the slightest hesitation, Empress Zhang gave a salute to Emperor Yaoqi, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the concubine will be done today!" ””

Nodding slowly, Emperor Yaoqi asked with a calm face: "I won't eat here, and I don't want to criticize the fold today, so I don't have to accompany me anymore." Seeing Emperor Yaoqi's attitude, Empress Zhang knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she couldn't help lowering her head and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows!" ”

Gently holding Empress Zhang in his arms, Emperor Yaoqi whispered: "I didn't get angry with you, I just remembered something. It's a good luck to be young, you find them all together, and then you make kites, and I will fly kites with you in the afternoon. Tell them that whoever makes a kite well and flies high will be rewarded! After saying that, Emperor Yaoqi strode away!

Looking at the back of Emperor Yaoqi, Empress Zhang smiled indifferently and greeted her happily.

When he came to the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Yaoqi didn't see Chen Hong, and pulled a little eunuch and asked, "Where is Chen Hong?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Gonggong Chen is in Shangshan, there seems to be something going on there!" The little eunuch said cautiously.

"Go, get him!" Emperor Yaoqi waved his hand at the little eunuch and said loudly.

After a short time, Chen Hong ran in panting, sweat on his forehead, and knelt down in the hall and said, "Your Majesty!" ”

"What's going on with the Chef?" Frowning slightly, Emperor Yaoqi asked in a deep voice.

"Back to Your Majesty, the eunuch who is in charge of the purchase of the eunuch is corrupt, and the ministers are going to deal with this matter!" Chen Hong replied respectfully.

Smiling coldly, Emperor Yaoqi said with a calm face: "It seems that my business is very good!" Everyone wants to make a fortune from me, is there any evidence? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, his residence was raided, and 140,000 taels of silver were copied. I heard that there is a home in the suburbs of Beijing, and the ministers have been sent to copy it, and the money he embezzled should be there! Chen Hong nodded affirmatively and replied respectfully.

"Okay, I won't ask about this, I will ask you if the two teams in Liaodong have come back? When can I get to the capital? Waving his hand slightly, Emperor Yaoqi asked in a deep voice.

Bowing to Emperor Yaoqi, Chen Hong said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the horses have arrived last night, and they should also arrive today!" ”

"Put it in the edict prison, and the other Ming Yao will be talking about it after the morning!" Gently stroking the hilt of the sword, Emperor Yaoqi said with a calm face.
