Chapter 246: Restless Majesty (3)
"Wechen is a small person, but the country and His Majesty have a big matter. Weichen is willing to repay His Majesty's great kindness with a humble body, although he has no regrets in death. ”
is a simple single sentence, full of sadness and knowledge.
The first emperor did not allow Liu Cen to resign, but gave him the post of taishou of Meijun, an important city in the north, and personally sent him to take office.
After Liu Cen arrived, he lived up to the expectations of the first emperor and governed Meijun, which was originally arrogant and rampant and the people's grievances were boiling, to be clear and peaceful, which can be regarded as breaking out of the world.
But Liu Cen's prestige can still be suppressed in a remote place.
When he arrives in the court that pays attention to his innocence, it is still not good, and those civil and military officials who claim to be high will definitely still embarrass him.
The first emperor couldn't hold it down, let alone Chonghua, who hadn't really gained a foothold.
Zhong Weiwei objected: "There is no doubt that Liu Cen is a talent, but now is not a good time to transfer him back to Beijing and promote him for reuse."
There are too many people who look down on him, and they will definitely go against His Majesty because of this matter. ”
Chonghua understated: "I know, but I'm going to do it." ”
Zhong Weiwei was anxious: "This time is not suitable!" ”
Chonghua looked at her: "If I say it's suitable, it's suitable." ”
Second Senior Brother, are you so domineering and willful?
Zhong Weiwei sighed, and tried to persuade him: "It's so chaotic now, Your Majesty can fight for one more."
If you insist on promoting and reusing Liu Cen, it will increase the contradictions, and it will not do him any good, right?
After a few years of stability, wouldn't it be better for you to promote him again? ”
Chonghua still looks domineering and willful: "This is a test for Liu Cen, if he still can't withstand it, then he will never have a chance again."
If he resists, then it proves that he is indeed a talent. Don't persuade me anymore, I know what to do. ”
He looked into the distance and whispered, "What happened to the son of the prostitute?" What happened to the pig killer's son?
As long as they have good character, have ability, and want to serve the country, they should be given this opportunity.
The son of the master is noble, a belly of male thieves and prostitutes, what do you keep to do? Are you mad at me? ”
He didn't explain it, but Zhong Weiwei understood his thoughts-
If these people can be reused as high-ranking officials regardless of their background, then even if she is from an unknown origin and is not Zhong Nanjiang's daughter-in-law, then what?
can also be a queen, and can also stand side by side with him.
These courtiers with bad backgrounds, once they become important ministers, will be desperate to promote and reuse their Chonghua.
In order to ensure their own interests, they will desperately arch her to the back seat and protect her.
Zhong Weiwei bit his lip lightly and rested his head on Chonghua's shoulder.
He is still for her, but he is still like that, and he refuses to explain it.
She didn't say anything superfluous, and Chonghua didn't need her to say it.
He patted her on the shoulder, "Let's go back." I've thought about it, if you don't be a concubine, you won't do it, let's just be the queen. ”
How can it be so easy?
Concubine Feng failed, but Zhong Weiwei was not uncomfortable, she laughed: "Okay." That's a good idea. ”
She knew that Chonghua had been under a lot of pressure in the Outer Dynasty these days.
In the past few days, Lu Chun has asked people to invite him to Xicui Palace several times, but he has ignored them, and she can see that the Lu family must have changed his mind again, and even put pressure on Chonghua.
Chonghua refused to let her know what was going on, so she pretended not to know, but she would definitely figure it out.
At night, Chonghua had already fallen asleep.
He gets up early in the morning, is busy with government affairs and big things, intrigues, fights fiercely, and is jealous, and he has to do everything himself.
No matter how much energy and good body you have, you can't help but be so busy.
Zhong Weiwei thought about too many things, and after the initial tiredness, he couldn't sleep.
She stepped lightly on the bed, pushed open the door of the hall and walked out, Aunt Qian was on duty, and when she saw her come out, she greeted her and whispered, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhong Weiwei said: "I can't sleep." Get some wine and drink. ”
Aunt Qian pursed her lips and smiled, and let people: "Go get a few side dishes, blanch a pot of fruit wine, and Zhong Tongshi and I will drink two cups." ”
In order not to make a noise with Chonghua, Zhong Weiwei put the place for drinking and chatting in her small tea room.
After two or three glasses of wine, the belly and cheeks warmed up, and the two women opened up the conversation.
Aunt Qian told Zhong Weiwei everything she knew: "After all, it's the eldest son who died......
The Wei family is going to fight His Majesty to the end in this matter, the Lu family has an ambiguous attitude, and many people are arguing every day when they see the wind and rudder. ”
Sure enough, as Zhong Weiwei expected, she also told Aunt Qian her thoughts:
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you seal the concubine or not, I'm not in a hurry. As long as Your Majesty stands firm, everything will be there. My aunt helped me persuade His Majesty not to be in a hurry. ”
Aunt Qian was very happy: "It's right for you to think like this, you just have to be considerate of each other like this." The first emperor didn't misunderstand you, the most considerate person is you. ”
A palace man came in to deliver food, secretly looked at Zhong Wei's only eye, and then whispered a word to Aunt Qian.
Aunt Qian was a little unhappy: "What is she going to do?" ”
Zhong Weiwei guessed that this matter probably had something to do with him, so he asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Aunt Qian was a little helpless: "Concubine Xian came over to bring supper to Your Majesty." ”
At this point, Chonghua has already stopped, what kind of supper does Lu Chun send?
It's clear that I'm deliberately making excuses and want to see her.
There are some things that can't be avoided after all.
What she should face is up to her, and she can't let these things bother Chonghua.
Zhong Weiwei straightened his clothes and walked out.
It was already late at night, and the Qingxin Hall had already been locked, and it was not allowed to enter without an edict.
Although Lu Chun's name is "Favorite Concubine", he can only stand outside the door honestly and wait.
Under the dim light, Lu Chun was dressed in plain clothes, standing proudly, hooking the corners of his lips to look Zhong Wei up and down, and smiled lightly: "Zhong Tongshi, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Zhong Weiwei replied to Lu Chun very politely: "Thank you for your concern." ”
"Concerned? This palace is indeed very concerned about Zhong Tongshi. Lu Chun smiled meaningfully and pointed to the palace gate: "Don't you invite this palace to come in and sit?" ”
Zhong Weiwei said calmly: "I'm sorry, after the palace gate is locked late at night, you are not allowed to enter unless Your Majesty sends an edict, and the lower officials dare not make their own claims."
However, if the mother has something urgent and important, she has to meet His Majesty at this moment, and the lower official can pass it on to you. Do you want to pass it through? ”
Where did Lu Chun dare to wake up Chonghua at such a time?
She is not really a favorite concubine, and there is nothing urgent about it.
She cleared her throat: "No need, Your Majesty is hard, we have to think about him." This matter, whether it is big or small, is not small, and it is the same as you say. ”
Zhong Weiwei said calmly: "Niangniang, please command." ”
Such calmness caused Lu Chun to look at her carefully a few more times, and the words he said seemed less confident:
"That's the case, Your Majesty has the intention to promote you to Concubine De, you know about this, right?" (To be continued.) )
