Chapter 906: Royal Family Matters (4)
However, Wu Shigong, who knew Zhu Qilan's temper well, was not moved. He knew that this was Zhu Qilan's child's temper attack. So Wu Shigong asked like a child, "What did I do that is unfair?" You said! If it's really me who did something wrong, let Xiu'er hit my palm. ”
"Poof!" The maid was happy at the same time. Zhu Qilan also rolled in Wu Shigong's arms, and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty! The two princess sisters entered the door later than Lan'er, and Lan'er's position in the palace should be higher than them. ”
As soon as he said this, Wu Shigong was suddenly stuck.
After entering Beijing this time, Wu Shigong also indulged a little. In the face of the swarming "tide of female offerings", Wu Shigong also selected a few of them. For example, Tian Hongyu offered Tian Guifei's sister and Chen Yuanyuan. In addition, princesses like Changping and Zhaoren and some beautiful concubines in the palace were also included in the harem by Wu Shigong.
Of course, Wu Shigong's excuse to the outside world is to "shame the former Ming royal family and revitalize the new emperor's majesty". In fact, in the final analysis, the reason is that Wu Shigong is just lustful.
However, by the time of the founding ceremony, the concubines of Wu Shigong's harem will also be canonized. Among them, the top three are, of course, the queen - Xue Yufei, the imperial concubine - Li Xin and the concubine - Luo Qingjun, and the other concubines will also be ranked in turn. And the two princesses Changping, Zhaoren and Zhu Qilan, because they are the princesses of the previous dynasty, they are ranked relatively high among the concubines. However, Zhu Qilan is behind the two princesses, who called her just the identity of a county lord. So today's Zhu Qilan has some snack vinegar, so she came to Wu Shigong to be coquettish.
But Wu Shigong is in a state of mind for a little girl like Zhu Qilan. There's no good way to do it. In fact, not only among the concubines, but also in the current Daping Army, there is also this phenomenon - the old man is not as good as the newcomer.
Because it was necessary to appease the officials and generals of the former Ming Dynasty. Wu Shigong not only gave some key people high-ranking officials, but also spent a lot of money to buy them, so that the status and wealth of these people even surpassed the old man of the Runing Army who had been following Wu Shigong. It makes some old people in the Runing Army always complain and have strange words. In this regard, Wu Shigong could only try his best to appease, and secretly sent a message to the old man of Runing Army: When everything settles, the Daping Dynasty will be promoted and subsidized in the future. Take care of these old people. Therefore, the phrase "a bowl of water is flat" is simple to say, but it is really too difficult to do.
I thought about it for a long time. Wu Shigong could only divert the topic, and picked on Zhu Qilan's favorite to hear: "In the future, I will crown your Zheng'er as the king of Shu and kill your uncle's family, what do you think?" ”
I didn't expect this to be out of tune. Zhu Qilan was in a good mood. Her dark eyes rolled. continued to open the condition: "That Lan'er still wants to go out of the palace to play." After arriving in the capital, I was bored in the palace every day, and I was suffocated to death, which was not fun at all. ”
"Good!" Wu Shigong was also helpless against Zhu Qilan, "In recent days, the outside of the palace has also been dangerous, and those gardens have also been burned by Shaanxi thieves and Tartars, and when they are cleaned up in a few days, I will take you to play first." In the future, I will have the opportunity to inspect Jiangnan. I'll take yours with me too. What do you think? ”
"That's pretty much it!" Now Zhu Qilan is satisfied.
Unexpectedly, there were more than these concubines coming. That's when it happened. Luo Qingjun came to this hut again accompanied by the palace maid. Seeing Luo Qingjun's arrival, Wu Shigong rolled his eyes in confusion.
Seeing that the palace maid was also carrying a food box, Wu Shigong knew that Luo Qingjun was also sending supper for himself. However, he understood that Luo Qingjun still had the following text, so Wu Shigong got up, hurriedly dealt with most of the two suppers, and then asked, "Jun'er, you can say anything today." I will promise you. ”
At this time, Luo Qingjun, she had not yet woken up from the surprise of seeing Qiong Niang and the others, she said "ahh The concubine has something to say to you alone. ”
"Is there anything you can't say in front of your family?" Wu Shigong asked curiously.
"That's it...... It's our Luo family......" Luo Qingjun said hesitantly.
Wu Shigong suddenly understood that Luo Qingjun came to run for his mother's family. So he nodded with a smile and said, "I will give your father and uncle a scholar and a governor." How is the governor of Shandong? No way, your uncle's qualifications are indeed shallow, wait for later! There is a chance that he can enter the cabinet. ”
For the Luo family, who married a daughter back then, although they did not grab the position of the main wife, they have now also got a concubine, so there is nothing to be dissatisfied with. It's just that because they have become noble relatives, they are afraid that they will not have real power in the future, so today, they want to use Luo Qingjun to probe Wu Shigong's tone.
Hearing that Wu Shigong agreed to the two powerful official positions of Shangshu and Governor, Luo Qingjun also suddenly smiled, looking satisfied. Wu Shigong looked at Luo Qingjun with a smile like a flower, but he was secretly sighing in his heart: This little girl was married as a victim of the family and as a political marriage, and now she is still working hard for the benefit of the family, which is really pitiful!
As for the setting up of the Yamen of the Daping Dynasty, it is still being kept secret these days. There will be more than six yamen in the new dynasty, and the number of yamen will also be greatly increased. Therefore, the position of a Shangshu will actually drop a lot in gold content.
And because of the stripping of judicial power, the value of the governor's office will be much less. Moreover, the local officials of the Daping Dynasty would implement the practice of joint government, and the governor would only be the nominal head of a province, and would not be able to hold power alone. So Wu Shigong's promise doesn't sound so good.
So seeing that Luo Qingjun was satisfied, Wu Shigong was also a little unbearable. Later, he added: "Report more of the children in your mother's family, and I will consider it more in my official position." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Luo Qingjun performed the blessing ceremony over and over again, and his heart was full of joy.
Wu Shigong really couldn't stand it, so he couldn't help but remind Luo Qingjun: "No matter what, if your Luo family has the status of a noble relative, you will definitely not be able to be the first assistant." What's more, you also gave birth to a prince, so it is difficult for the Luo family to enter the cabinet. I can only promise to take care of your Luo family as much as possible, and there are some things that I can't do. ”
"Concubine Province!" Unexpectedly, Luo Qingjun replied indifferently, "Actually, the emperor has this heart, and the concubines can have this face, and that's it." The concubine is now a member of the Wu family. ”
Hearing Luo Qingjun's answer, Wu Shigong was stunned. It turns out that this Luo Qingjun has long understood the key here, after all, she is also from an official family. And the reason why I want to run for Wu Shigong today is that I really can't get rid of the trust in the family; The second is to see if Wu Shigong is really good to her. And Wu Shigong's answer also made Luo Qingjun, a little girl, quite satisfied.
This made Wu Shigong a little suddenly realized. It turns out that many things are not too good to hide and pinch, and sometimes as long as you communicate sincerely, many things may not be as tricky as you imagined.
"Sisters! Why are you all here? Don't affect the emperor's rest. Suddenly, there was another whisper at the door.
As soon as they saw that it was Xue Yufei's arrival, all the women immediately stood up and saluted Xue Yufei.
And when Wu Shigong saw another one, he was joking, so he quipped: "Fei'er, did you also send me supper?" ”
A smile suddenly appeared on the faces of the women. But Xue Yufei was a little confused when asked, and she wondered: "Is the emperor hungry?" Then the concubine arranged for someone to do it. ”
"No, no, no!" The smile on Wu Shigong's face became even stronger, and he asked again, "Then you also have something to come to me?" ”
All the women suddenly couldn't help it, and they all "clucked!" He laughed.
"It's okay!" Xue Yufei was even more confused by laughter, "I just heard that the emperor was still busy with state affairs, so I came over to remind him and asked the emperor to rest early." ”
Looking at Xue Yufei's puzzled look, Wu Shigong finally couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha——! Good! Just listen to the Queen. I'm lazy today. Ye Zhong! Move those folds down first, and I'll see them tomorrow. You all stay, and talk to me tonight. ”
"Huh!?" All the women immediately exclaimed, and they all knew that Wu Shigong would never just talk so simply.
Xue Yufei, who was still the highest, spoke first. She hesitated, blushed, and said to Wu Shigong in a soft voice: "Your Majesty! It's a long time to come! You're going to have morning pilgrimage tomorrow. Otherwise, let ......"
"It's better to pick the day than to hit the sun!" Wu Shigong interrupted Xue Yufei's words without hesitation, "Just leave them all." With you, what if I am 'a king from now on'? Hahaha——! ”
……
Having said that, Wu Shigong still got up early the next day. At the beginning of the new dynasty, a hundred wastes were waiting to be revived, and Wu Shigong never dared to slack off. And these days, Wu Shigong is even more busy, and he can't even implement the system of ten years and one rest set in Runing, Wu Shigong is so busy every day that he is dizzy.
After the early dynasty, Wu Shigong immediately returned to the palace and seized the time to annotate the pieces that were dragged down yesterday. But without commenting for a while, Caroline's youngest son, Wu Chengqing, ran in vigorously, only five years old, regardless of his father's surprised eyes, went straight to a cabinet in the imperial study, and then found a leather ball from inside.
"Huh!" Seeing that Wu Chengqing was about to run, Wu Shigong suddenly rushed over, grabbed his back and lifted him up. Then Wu Shigong hugged this half-breed boy and asked, "Who told you to put the ball here?" ”
However, looking at his son, who looked cute with a tiger's head and a tiger's brain, Wu Shigong couldn't hold his face at all, and couldn't help but kiss him on his little face. (To be continued......)
