The palace concubines couldn't compete with Wei Rou and Lu Chun, and I heard that they weren't favored, so the new emperor put all his energy into the government and had no intention of the harem.

I had no choice but to stop and focus on how to eat and have fun.

The outer court is different, and there is an undercurrent hidden under the calm.

Chonghua seems to have a hot temperament, he can't hold sand in his eyes, but he does things steadily.

He skillfully balanced the forces among his ministers, and quietly inserted some poor disciples into key departments.

Chonghua worked hard to pull the country of Li, which was increasingly in crisis, out of the quagmire;

Zhong Weiwei worked hard to defeat Mei Xun at the tea fighting conference, regain the tea monopoly, and let the tea farmers in Liguo have something to eat.

They are all doing what they think they should do, and they keep moving forward without hesitation.

In the blink of an eye, the New Year is approaching, and Chonghua's birthday is approaching.

There was a heavy snowfall last night, and the red plums in the plum orchard became more and more fiery and delicate.

Empress Dowager Wei hugged the snow-white fox fur, held the hand stove inlaid with gold and jade, sat gracefully and luxuriously in the warm pavilion, looked at the red plum outside the pavilion, and said lightly:

"How, are you involved or not?"

Concubine Lu sat an arm's length away from Empress Dowager Wei, wearing a luxurious sable robe, and pulling the charcoal ball in the copper hand stove with a copper chopstick.

said casually: "It sounds like a very well-planned plan, but can you be sure that the person you found can really have the ability to defeat Zhong Weiwei?" You and I have seen her tea skills, but they are not so easy to defeat. ”

Empress Dowager Wei curled the corners of her lips: "Over the years, how many times have you seen me lose?" ”

Concubine Lu was the defeated general of her subordinates, and frowned unhappily when she heard this:

"Didn't you boast a long time ago that you would kill and maim Zhong Weiwei, or you would let her part ways with Your Majesty? See how much you've done? ”

Empress Dowager Wei was not angry: "That's because you watched the fire from the other side, if you were of the same heart as me, she would have died a long time ago." Back then, you and I joined forces, didn't we succeed in separating them? ”

Concubine Lu was determined to raise the bar with Empress Dowager Wei: "Yes, yes, they have been separated for so many years, Your Majesty not only handed over the eldest son of the emperor to her to raise, but also gave her the Lanjiang Tea Garden."

The palace concubines are just passable, and I don't see who he favors, and no one's stomach is bulging!

If it weren't for the wrong age of the emperor's eldest son, I would have thought that Zhong Weiwei was born! ”

Empress Dowager Wei became impatient: "The ancestors of the Lu family and the Wei family have long agreed that the queen's position will be resided, and in case of trouble, the two families will join forces to deal with foreign enemies together." You won't forget this agreement, will you? Do you do it or not? ”

Seeing that she was angry, Concubine Lu was not afraid, she rolled her eyes and threw it over: "Then what else are you asking?" Of course. Let her live in peace for so long, it's time to move. ”

Empress Dowager Wei laughed: "Don't worry, as long as we work together to tide over this difficulty, let the children fight for the rest, as long as Lu Chun can get His Majesty's heart, I will never stop it." ”

Concubine Lu pouted, who wants to believe you! But it's true to get rid of Zhong Weiwei's scourge first.

The twenty-fifth day of the lunar month is Chonghua's first birthday after succeeding to the throne, and it is categorically not simple.

The palace is full of lights and joy, from courtiers to palace concubines, to officials with heads and faces, there are gifts to give.

According to the arrangement of the day, Chonghua got up early to accept the courtiers' worship and feasted the ministers.

In the afternoon, I returned to the palace, accepted the congratulations of the concubine, and then held a family banquet with the Empress Dowager Wei, the concubines and others.

In the afternoon, the door of the Pure Heart Hall was opened.

Empress Dowager Wei took Wei Rou, Lu Chun and others to come in and wait for Chonghua to return to the palace to celebrate his birthday.

Aunt Qian and other female officials were busy arranging Empress Dowager Wei and others, Zhong Weiwei did not get involved in these things, and only stood aside quietly with her, waiting for Empress Dowager Wei to summon her.

Empress Dowager Wei sat down, and the first thing she did was to let her go over again.

hugged him in his arms and asked affectionately, "What gift do you plan to give your father and emperor?" ”

Since she pretended to be sick in Wan'an Palace to relieve Zhong Weiwei, Empress Dowager Wei suddenly stopped and stopped tossing him, very gentle and kind.

Although he was still vigilant, he could barely answer her a sentence or two: "Back to the emperor's grandmother's words, it is a word." ”

Empress Dowager Wei raised her eyebrows, looked around, and said with a smile: "Yo, I can actually write." Take a look. ”

Zhong Weiwei personally sent the words written again, which was a picture of the word "longevity".

The brushstrokes are immature, and there is nothing new, but at this age, it is already very good.

"You taught it?" Empress Dowager Wei smiled Yan Yan, and her eyes flashed.

After getting Zhong Weiwei's affirmation, his smile became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Concubine Lu and said:

"It is worthy of being the daughter of a generation of Confucianism, the living room of the first emperor, the little child, who didn't know how to speak when she first came, and when she fell into her hands, she actually looked decent."

Concubine Lu glanced at Zhong Weiwei, and said with a smile: "I don't know when the female officials of the inner court can also be the emperor's enlightenment master."

Shouldn't His Majesty be enlightened personally, or choose a famous Confucian from a foreign dynasty to do it? ”

Lu Chun smiled and said nothing, and Wei Rou, who had already "reformed his evil and returned to the right", immediately excused Zhong Weiwei: "Maybe it was arranged by His Majesty, right?" Zhong Tong's history? ”

Speaking of this, Zhong Weiwei really didn't get Chonghua's approval, but it was just a whim, and she wanted to learn, so she taught.

After that, Chonghua didn't say anything, and took the initiative to ask Aunt Qian to send him the pen he used when he was a child.

It's just a dignified eldest son, if she, a female official in the inner court, and Tong Shikai, who is also in charge of the indecent affairs of the back court, it is very unpleasant to say, and it seems that Chonghua does not pay enough attention to it.

She was respectful: "It's just a child messing around and playing, and the official enlightenment will not be until the eldest son of the emperor is six years old, and His Majesty will be enlightened personally." ”

Concubine Lu sneered: "In my opinion, it's not the eldest son of the emperor who is messing around, but you, the history of Tong, right?"

Having said that, what are you doing all day long? Tea? The Pope Son Writes? Don't do your job! ”

Lu Chun pinched Concubine Lu and said with a smile: "I don't know what gift Zhong Tongshi plans to give to His Majesty's birthday?" ”

Zhong Weiwei's gift is an ancient tea scripture that has been corrected and recopied by her, which is neatly framed, and it looks decent when she picks a good box to put it.

She understated: "Hui Xian's words are just a book, not valuable, and not worth mentioning, just barely covering your hands." ”

Wei Rou said, "What book?" Can you show me? ”

Wei Rou is Zhong Weiwei's "life-saving benefactor" on the bright side, Zhong Weiwei is not good at brushing her face in public, so she immediately smiled and asked Xiaotang to bring the book. (To be continued.) )
