The Imperial Palace of the capital is still in the Zichen Palace.

After Qiao Mu came back to complete the handover, before she had time to go back to rest, she was called by her father again, saying that he had something to discuss with her.

Summoned by his father, he was still the emperor's father.

No matter how tired you are, you have to come.

Entering the side hall, before Qiao Mu had time to say goodbye, her father, who was sitting on it, that is, Emperor Yuan Chu, had already walked down, and smiled and helped down: "No need to be polite, come and sit."

You did a good job this time, if it is peaceful today, you have half of the credit, I have already done it for you what you told me before leaving, whether it is suitable or not, you can check it yourself when you go back.

I called you for something else.

Sit down. ”

"Father, what do you want to do?

This world is peaceful with half of my credit, is it possible that I am the master, you have to do it to me, you don't cover the hat like this.

You're trying to scare me! ”

Although Qiao Mu said this, he obviously didn't think so in his heart, otherwise it would not be possible to say it while laughing and walking to the side of Emperor Yuan Chu and sitting down, not polite at all.

"You girl, I'm not Emperor Conway.

I called you here to inform you to go back today and have a good rest, and not to enter the palace tomorrow.

Just stay home and get some rest.

The day after tomorrow on time. ”

Emperor Yuan Chu glanced at Qiao Mu.

smiled helplessly.

"That's it.

Then you will directly send someone to pass on a decree, saying that it is not enough to let me rest for two more days, why do you recruit me into the palace and say to my face, I can sleep for an extra hour when I have this time, don't you say? ”

Qiao Mu was also speechless.

Give her an extra day off, then take an extra day off, why bother to call her over, it's not too troublesome, she just came back not long after she was dusty, and now she can fall asleep when she lies down.

It would be nice to have this time to sleep more.

"I haven't seen you for two years, don't you miss me!

Forget it, letting you rest for two more days is just another thing, I want you to save more energy to cope with the canonization ceremony.

How tiring the canonization ceremony is.

You don't know it. ”

Emperor Yuan Chu still said with a smile, and it didn't look like he had said it all, and there might be some information hidden.

Qiao Mu lowered his head and pondered for a while, then asked in surprise, "Do you want to make me the princess of the town chief?" ”

You can't blame Qiao Mu for thinking so, it's really the eldest princess who has been upgraded to the top, and there is indeed no level to upgrade, according to the convention, even if it is the eldest princess who has military merits, or the eldest princess who has a lot of merits, it is nothing more than adding an honorific title in front of the eldest princess, such as Zhenguo or Huguo.

Of course, there are others.

However, the two honorific titles of Zhenguo and Huguo are of the highest grade, and they are also more in line with Qiao Mu's actions.

"No, it's to make you the crown princess!"

At this moment, Emperor Yuan's smile became a little more obvious, and at the same time, he stared at Qiao Mu with great interest, wanting to see how she reacted.

He knew that his behavior was unprecedented, and he also knew that doing so would inevitably shake the government and the opposition, but he was in power, so he was naturally not worried about what chaos would happen, but what was he more interested in at this time was what Qiao Mu's reaction looked like?

I want to see what kind of reaction and attitude her daughter, who has always been very calm in the past and much more prosperous than the sons in the family, will suddenly hear such news.

"The Queen?

Father, do you want me to inherit the throne?

But what about my younger brothers? ”

Qiao Mu's expression at this time was obviously not surprise, but surprise and embarrassment, surprised that her father, the master of the patriarchal society, could have such an idea, and the main thing that was difficult was that she really didn't want to be the emperor, after all, being the emperor was still quite tiring, she just wanted to be a big salted fish.

The salty, oily kind.

Oh no, that's salted eggs.

"Don't mention your brothers to me.

If one of your younger brothers has a decent one, I will not risk the condemnation of the world.

I want to make you the crown princess.

You haven't been here in the capital for the last few years, so you don't know much about the virtues of your younger brothers.

Let me tell you about it!

Your second brother, since the year before the year, has been spoiling concubines and killing wives, I didn't know at the time, until he was impeached by several imperial histories last year, I sent someone to investigate thoroughly, and your second sister-in-law has been tortured by him so much that she can't eat.

Now he has been relegated to commoner by me.

The throne passed to his eldest son.

This kind of person, if he is allowed to inherit the throne.

Isn't it just a business?

If he can treat his wife who has been with him for more than ten years like a woman, then he can treat the people of the world more cruelly for a woman.

And your third and fourth brothers.

I've been holding them in the past, so I really didn't notice anything wrong with them.

I'm usually quite obedient.

But since I ascended the throne, I didn't care much about them, one is lingering in the Qinglou, and I don't return home at night, and the other is a pet male pet, he is still the one below, and he has lost the face of our family, if it weren't for your mother to stop me, I would like to chop him alive.

And your fifth brother.

Alas, I don't even know how to say it, the whole person has fallen into the eyes of money, and he is opening a restaurant and building ships to go to sea to do trade, and his family is not missing his food and drink, and as a result, he knows to look at money all day long, and he is usually even more picky.

I didn't even let go of the New Year's money I gave to his daughter, and I didn't know what he wanted to do.

As for your sisters.

I don't want to talk about it even more.

It's not in the backyard to make a fortune, or it's okay to run back to her parents' house to find a colt with Lizhong.

Tell me, is this like a word? ”

Qiao Mu didn't mention his younger brother, but as soon as he mentioned Emperor Yuanchu, he began to frown, and complained with hatred, he never knew that his sons were so virtuous, I don't know if it was too depressed in the past or what, anyway, those sons are not candidates to inherit the throne in his opinion, let them inherit the throne, that is not responsible for the people of the world, maybe it won't take two or three generations, and their family will have to be destroyed.

"Uh...... The fifth brother should be fine.

It's not a big mistake to be greedy for money.

A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, as long as he doesn't scrape the people's fat and people's ointment, it's okay to make money by his own ability, and his father doesn't need to be too harsh. ”

Qiao Mu said that she was still a little weak-hearted, because if she hadn't been sent out by Emperor Yuan Chu early to carry out a comprehensive reform of the west and north, then she probably would have several dashing faces now, and she wouldn't have become the only survivor after Emperor Yuan's investigation.

"It's not a big mistake, but he's picking!

Last year, when there was a flood in the south, the treasury did not have enough money, so I asked hundreds of officials to donate.

Do you know how much he donated?

Donated a thousand taels!

Such a small amount of money is not enough for him to pay for the round-trip trip of any convoy, and he is even embarrassed to donate, so he donated so much, and how much can other ministers donate, I can't wait to raid his home.

If he were to be the emperor, I doubt that he would be able to seal up the treasury and not let anyone take a penny, and he would not be able to provide relief in the event of a natural disaster.

Okay, that's it, it seems that you are barely a little bit of a gentleman at the moment, I hope you don't disappoint me, now you go back to rest first, I might as well make some preparations in advance. ”

Emperor Yuan Chu complained two more sentences.

Let the arbor go back, first, let the arbor go back and take it slowly, and accept the situation.

The second is to leave some time for himself to deploy the army to prevent the possible turmoil that may occur when he announces the appointment of his eldest daughter as the crown princess.

At the same time, some of the utensils of the Ministry of Rites and the costumes of the imperial lady had to be prepared in advance.

……

Three days later

Emperor Yuan Chu's announcement of the canonization of Qiao Mu as the crown princess did cause turmoil in the government and the opposition, but it may be because Qiao Mu had been involved in politics for many years and had always been very popular among the people.

Therefore, although the hundred officials had objections, no one said that they would be killed on the spot to stop it in the court.

In addition, Emperor Yuan Chu was relatively tough.

The knives were almost up to their necks.

So in the end, I had to acquiesce to this matter.

And began to actively prepare for the canonization ceremony.

Half a month later, Qiao Mu successfully put on the nine-colored golden phoenix princess robe and officially ascended to the Temple of Heaven, becoming the first imperial princess in thousands of years.

She is known as the Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty.

It created a prosperous era of the early Yuan Dynasty for two hundred years.
