Out of the first month, the national mourning period expired, and the officials and people were disobeyed.

Emperor Daxing had no children under his knees, and the Zongren Mansion selected a man, a woman and two young children in the clan, inherited under the knees of Emperor Daxing, and guarded filial piety for Emperor Daxing in Coal Qingshan.

On the tenth day of the second month, Zhou Huan, the fourth son of Emperor Taizu, entered Beijing with his son Zhou Zheng, and the nobles of the clan and hundreds of civil and military officials went out of the city to greet them.

On February 12, the new emperor ascended the throne, because the Daxing Emperor died a few years ago, therefore, the year of the new emperor's accession to the throne was the beginning of the new yuan, and the year name was changed to Yuankang.

In the first year of Yuankang, Enke was given, amnesty was granted to the world, and the land affected by the war was reduced for three years, so that the local people could recuperate.

Emperor Yuan Kang posthumously crowned his mother Concubine Rong as filial piety and dedication to Wen Mu Huici and respect the Holy Empress Dowager of Tianju, and posthumously crowned the late Princess Qin as Empress Xiaosu Zhenlie Jia Jingrui.

The third son, Zhou Zheng, was canonized as the crown prince, and his wife Liu was the crown princess. Her daughter Yining County Lord is Princess Ruyang, and the princess's biological mother Ding is a concubine.

Zhou Jin, the heir of Emperor Daxing, changed his name to Zhou Qingjin, and was named the king of Fuliang County, and his heir Zhou Fen was renamed Zhou Qingfen, and was named the lord of Yi'an.

Zhou Yu, the king of Yanbei County, resisted the Tartars outside, resisted the rebels inside, made great achievements, and was the prince of Jin; Zhou Tong, the eldest daughter of King Yan, was named the lord of Yijia County and enjoyed Prince Lu.

Three days later, Emperor Yuan Kang issued another edict to posthumously crown the late Xiao Changhou as the Duke of Liang Guogong and his son Xiao Ren as the lord.

Emperor Daxing was assassinated, and the Jingwei Division commanded Xu Qiao and Li Guanzhong, Marquis of Anchang, to stabilize the capital and capture the assassins.

Zhou Cheng of the clan, who made military exploits in Yanbei and Baoding, was the general of Zhenguo, and was hereditary for three generations.

Half a month later, Princess Ruyang gave her the sixth son of the Dingguo Mansion Xiao Yun, and Xiao Yun was named the commander of the horse, and the wedding date was set for three months later.

A few days later, Xiao Changdun, the Duke of Dingguo, gave the title to his eldest son Xiao Yi on the grounds of Lao Mai's illness, and since then, Xiao Changdun has become the old Duke of Dingguo, and Xiao Yi has become the Duke of Dingguo.

Several edicts spread all over the world, and the newly promoted Yan King Zhou Yu was on the front line and could not enter Beijing, so Zhou Tong, the lord of Yijia, entered the palace for him to thank him.

The emperor saw Zhou Tong and asked, "Why didn't I see the excerpt that King Yan asked for for Lady Yun?" Haven't you brother and sister discussed it yet? ”

Zhou Tong said with a smile: "I won't tell you, I really can't blame Ah Yu, and I can't be blamed for this, it's my mother who didn't agree, and she refused." ”

The emperor frowned, he also knew a little about this Mrs. Yun, but he didn't expect that now that her son had been crowned prince, she didn't even want it.

Zhou Tong said again: "Ah Yu wrote to say that Ah Niang still lives in Baimarin, she refuses to live in Yan Wang's mansion, she said that when my father was alive, she didn't want to enter the palace, and now my father is gone, she doesn't want to be rare." Ah Yu and I discussed it, and we thought it would be okay to do whatever she liked. ”

The emperor sighed, he really couldn't imagine how his third emperor brother provoked such a stubborn woman back then, maybe only such a woman could raise a child like Zhou Yu and Zhou Tong.

"Then let Ah Yu think about it, there must be a name, and he can't let his own mother be a bandit." The Emperor said.

Zhou Tong chuckled and said, "My niece will write to him when she goes back." ”

The emperor asked again: "It's not good for you to live alone in the Yanwang Mansion, Xiao Qi entered the palace that day and told me that he was going to take troops to Anxia, according to me, after finishing the happy event for Ruyang and Xiao Liu, he will also do you and Xiao Qi's, you don't have to worry about these things, and hand them over to the Ministry of Rites and Zongren Mansion." ”

Zhou Tong counted the days and said, "Then wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

The emperor was very helpless, and said: "I thought that my daughter's family was looking forward to getting married, why did they all change when they came to you." ”

Zhou Tong was confused, she didn't know who else was the "you" in the emperor's mouth besides her.

Princess? How could it be, the princess and the prospective horse were eager to marry immediately, and then they could do whatever they wanted.

Yikuan and Yirong are still young, and they are not old enough to be engaged.

Zhou Tong couldn't think of it, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore and left it behind.

Today, the prince is having a banquet in Tianxianglou, the princess Liu is pregnant, just four months old, for the sake of prudence, the matter has not been spread, but the prince still can't wait to put the wine.

Coming out of Tianxiang Tower, Zhou Zheng did not return to the East Palace, but had to go to the Princess Mansion and the Liang Guogong Mansion that were being renovated to have a look.

The Princess's Mansion and the Liangguo Mansion and the Dingguo Mansion are all on the same street, and the families who originally lived there have moved away, and the Ministry of Industry has seized the time to construct and repair it before the princess's wedding.

Zhou Zheng and Xiao Ren walked around the construction site, and Zhou Zheng suddenly said, "Aunt Fan doesn't want to enter the palace." ”

"What?" Xiao Ren was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, and he asked in a low voice, "Aunt Fan rejected the emperor?" ”

"Hmm", Zhou Zheng sighed and said, "Aunt Fan said that their Fan family has been in Yulin for two generations, and there will be a third and fourth generation, she was born in Yulin, grew up in Yulin, and died in Yulin." Although the capital is good, it is not suitable for her. ”

Xiao Ren didn't speak, he didn't know what to say.

After a long time, he asked, "What does the emperor mean ......?"

"My father has already named Aunt Fan's heir Fan Shicheng as the general of Sanpin Zhaokang, as for the rest, my father did not mention it again." Zhou Zheng said.

Xiao Ren asked, "Did Empress Xiaosu really like Aunt Fan back then?" ”

At that time, he was very young, and he had heard these things happen, but now he thinks about it, but he doesn't know whether it's true or not.

Zhou Zheng nodded: "It's true, when the queen mother was seriously ill, she called Aunt Fan to come to Xi'an, and in front of me and the princess, she entrusted us to Aunt Fan." Aunt Fan swore to her mother that as long as she lived, she would protect the safety of our brothers and sisters. ”

After speaking, Zhou Zheng smiled bitterly: "Maybe Aunt Fan just wants to protect our brothers and sisters, but she doesn't want to be the queen." ”

Xiao Ren suddenly laughed, and he quipped: "I look at you like this, it seems that you are quite regretful, and you want a stepmother to take care of you?" ”

Zhou Zheng glared at him and said, "Tongtong and Aunt Fan have a good relationship, and later I heard that the crown princess is also an old acquaintance with Aunt Fan, if Aunt Fan comes to the capital, won't they also have a companion to talk to?" ”

Xiao Ren was disdainful and said: "Tongtong has no shortage of companions, no matter where she goes in the future, Tongtong and I will be together, and she has no time to deal with the women in the palace." ”

Zhou Zheng was speechless, pointing at Xiao Ren's nose and glaring at him, Xiao Ren snorted his chin at the construction site in front of him, and said, "This is your sister's place, you take care of your sister-in-law in the future, so as not to let your brother-in-law be crooked." ”

Zhou Zheng immediately remembered his prospective brother-in-law, I heard that a few days ago, Xiao Chai's bastard went to the rouge shop in the capital, causing a lot of big girls and little daughters-in-law to compete to see the concubine, really, it's so annoying.

"I don't bother to care about them, after June, I'm going to go to the south to patrol the sky, and the two of them can do whatever they love in the capital, and I'm out of sight." Zhou Zheng said angrily.

"You're going to the south to hunt for the sky? At that time, I was going to Dang Xia, and I couldn't go with you. Xiao Ren frowned, he didn't know about this.
