Chapter 585: The Future Is Promising

Previous Chapter

Shu Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, full of appreciation.

If Ye Hao was to understand Emperor Kangping's difficulty, she would reluctantly cut her love and let her persuade Emperor Kangping to choose a concubine to calm the anger of the public, then she would really live up to Emperor Kangping's deep friendship!

"Since the saint and the mother and wife are of the same heart, then there is no difficulty in this world that cannot be overcome." Shu Yu said confidently.

Ye Hao's heart was immediately relieved when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked, "But uncle and aunt have already thought of an idea?" ”

Shu Yu pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "Speaking of which, this idea was still thought up by Ping An." It's just that I have to work hard for Lord Zhenghong, the prisoner of the Qin Heavenly Prison. ”

When Ye Hao heard this, she knew that Shu Yu and Han Yan had already made some arrangements, and her heart was even more settled.

"A few days ago, Ping An followed Prison Hong to watch the stars at night, and when he came back, he said something mysterious and concerned about personnel. When the Shengshangguang draft girl was in the limelight for the succession of the heir, your uncle occasionally heard Ping'an mention this, and he was ready to deal with the matter with the words of the Heavenly Phenomena Dao. After a few days of discussion, they have almost drawn up the specific details of the plan, just waiting for Supervisor Hong to explain it in public when he is at the court meeting! Shu Yu said with a smile.

The people of the time firmly believed that celestial phenomena predicted personnel and could warn of good fortune and misfortune, and Emperor Kangping shirked this matter with the words that the celestial phenomena showed that the wide selection of concubines was not conducive to the emperor's star and country, at least on the bright side, no one dared to speak out against it.

Even if the princes of the court knew in their hearts that this was just an excuse for Emperor Kangping to delay the selection of concubines with Qin Tianjian, it would never be easy to refute it directly for a while, otherwise Emperor Kangping could deduct them with a charge of "obstructing the monarch and harboring evil intentions", and they would face the disaster of destroying the family at any time.

Of course, the courtiers also knew that Emperor Kangping was not the kind of emperor who was self-serving and violent, and of course he would not exterminate them because of this, and some of them were indeed not afraid of personal life and death for the sake of state affairs or for personal interests such as leaving a name in history.

However, Emperor Kangping's move was not to completely dispel their thoughts, but to gain time.

When the time is gained, everything else will be said.

Sure enough, at the court meeting the next day, in the face of the joint request of the princes to ask him to recruit concubines for the heirs, Emperor Kangping had no choice but to ask Qintian Supervisor Zheng Hongfu to explain in public that he was not confused by the queen's beauty and witchcraft and ignored his heirs and the country.

The ministers who jointly invited Emperor Kangping to recruit concubines did not expect Emperor Kangping to give them such a hand silently, and they were all stunned. Faced with such a scoundrel emperor who hit their weakness with one blow, they really didn't know how to make a strong argument for a while.

Emperor Kangping took the opportunity to issue a will, the will of heaven is so, as the son of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he is mandated by heaven and protects the people, and he really does not dare to accept concubines for personal selfish desires under the warning of this celestial phenomenon, so as not to cause trouble because of going against the will of heaven.

In the end, Emperor Kangping ordered his ministers not to write a book to talk about this matter before the celestial changes and delay the country.

Emperor Kangping has been in power for three years, under the loyal assistance of Han Yan and Xie Zhiyi and others, he has initially controlled the court, and now the emperor's prestige is beginning to take shape.

As a result, the originally noisy discussion of choosing concubines finally stopped temporarily.

Ye Hao later summoned Shu Yu into the palace to thank her.

Shu Yu said with a smile: "Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries." What's more, to put it in a big disrespectful way, in the eyes of the courtiers and their husbands, there is no difference between Shengshang and Niangniang and Brother Xin and Sister Jia. As long as the saint and the mother live happily, we will also be happy. ”

Ye Hao couldn't help but nod with emotion.

Shu Yu thought about it, then took Ye Hao's hand and said with a smile: "When the New Year is over, Niangniang will be sixteen years old." It's time to take care of your body from now on and get ready. The argument that celestial phenomena are not suitable for choosing concubines is not a long-term solution. ”

Ye Hao knew that Shu Yu was euphemistically reminding her that she could prepare for pregnancy, and she was shy and expectant for a while, so she hurriedly nodded with a red face.

She has been naughty since she was a child, although she is the daughter of the county order, she has done everything on horseback and shooting, so her body has been very healthy since she was a child.

Later, when she entered the palace, Emperor Kangping couldn't bear to restrain her, not only allowed her to still ride a horse and box, but even specially found a female master who was extraordinary in martial arts and good at recuperating her body, so that she could strengthen her body while not practicing tendons and flesh, and lose the queen's prestige.

So even though she is only fifteen years old now, she feels that she can already prepare for conception.

Shu Yu has been a childcare teacher for more than ten years in his last life, and he is not only familiar with raising children, but also knows a lot about women's conception. Although she felt that Ye Hao was still young, Ye Hao's identity and the current situation did not allow her to continue to live a "two-person world" with Emperor Kangping.

That being the case, Shu Yu had to explain everything to Ye Hao one by one, and carefully told the palace people who were close to Ye Hao to do all kinds of things.

By the time the matter has completely subsided, it will be nearly the end of the month.

Shu Yu wanted to help the Meng family and the Qi family with some New Year's goods, New Year's gifts, sacrifices and other things, so naturally he didn't have time to take Han Yan and his two children to live in Xishan.

As a result, the plan could only be postponed.

The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, Shu Yu ordered the housekeeper to go to the Taifu Mansion early in the morning to check whether all the things for the New Year were done.

Although she and Han Yan have not been able to open a mansion to live in for various reasons, it is the mansion of the imperial gift, and their family will have to move there sooner or later in the future, so someone has always taken care of it. During the New Year's Festival, customs such as sticking Spring Festival couplets and incense should naturally not be exempted.

Chinese New Year's Eve.

Motohi Chaoga.

Shangyuan Festival.

……

In the blink of an eye, the spring breeze blows, the branches bloom green, and it is the spring solstice of another year.

Meng Chun, the son of heaven, ploughed in person to show that he valued agriculture and loved the people.

Queen Ji Chun kissed silkworms to show the meaning of exhorting silkworms.

As soon as the south wind blows, summer negligence arrives.

The Tian family has few idle months, and people are busy in May. The south wind rose at night, and the wheat was covered with yellow.

The southwest wind prevailed, with a scorching heat, and soon blew thousands of acres of wheat yellow.

This year is a good year, and the granary is full of millet.

In July, Tuhuan came to Beijing again to discuss the mutual market, intending to reopen the border market to promote the common prosperity and development of the two countries.

Before the end of the talks, other small countries around the Great Zhou Dynasty also sent envoys to show the meaning of "friendship from generation to generation".

All of a sudden, the number of foreign faces in the capital suddenly increased, and there were even foreign caravans that crossed the ocean, followed by all kinds of exotic treasures from foreign lands in the market.

In September, I left Beijing with a farewell.

Emperor Kangping sent an envoy to send him off, and at the same time discussed with Zhu Cheng, the eldest son of Zhu Kun, the new Zhenguo Duke who guarded Liaodong, to open another one of the proposed border towns to facilitate exchanges between the Great Zhou and Warat.

As for the envoys of other small countries in the surrounding areas, they also received due courtesy, and returned home one after another, asking their respective lords for follow-up matters related to the "generational friendship" of the Great Zhou.

Although today's Great Zhou cannot be said to be the dominant in the world, it has risen to peace in the four seas and the people are abundant, and it has begun to take on the image of prosperity.

Just when some people were idle and wanted to play again to ask Emperor Kangping to accept the concubines to extend the heirs and stabilize the society, there was suddenly good news in the palace - the queen was diagnosed with pregnancy, and it was already March.

In other words, the queen is sitting firmly in this child, whether it is a prince or a princess, Emperor Kangping will be a father - the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty will not worry about successors.

Emperor Kangping acted resolutely, and before the courtiers wrote to the queen that the queen was physically inconvenient, and the emperor needed to take this opportunity to draft girls to enrich the harem, he took the lead in proposing that in order to ensure the safe birth of the imperial heir and avoid the tragedy of his childhood from happening again, no one was allowed to mention the draft again before the queen gave birth smoothly.

Some courtiers have already written the recitals of the draft girls, but they don't have the opportunity to present them.

Of course, this is all thanks to Xie Zhiyi, who has already secured the position of second assistant in the cabinet and will succeed Han Yan as the first assistant in the near future, has a psychic mind and knows the intentions of the ministers in time, so he reported to Emperor Kangping one step in advance, and made suggestions, so that the safety of the emperor's heirs and the big hat of the inheritance of the country blocked the way for the ministers to write and advise.

Han Yan, who has already decided to pick and choose, is very satisfied with the performance of his successor Xie Zhiyi.

The sooner Xie Zhiyi comes through the experience, the sooner he will put down the burden on his shoulders and live the carefree and cosmopolitan life they want with Shu Yu.

On the third day of the fifth month of the thirteenth year of Kangping, the emperor's eldest son Liu Wei was born successfully.

Emperor Kangping issued an edict to grant amnesty to the world.

On the sixth day of the fifth month, the eldest son of the emperor, who had just been born for three days, was canonized as the crown prince.

Emperor Kangping was no longer afraid of courtiers using the emperor's heir and the inheritance of the country as an excuse to force him to choose concubines, and not to favor the queen alone.

On the fourth day of the fifth month of the 14th year of Kangping, the second day of the prince's first birthday, Han Yan, the first assistant of the cabinet, asked for a letter of illness and recommended the second assistant Xie Zhiyi to succeed him.

Emperor Kangping was not allowed, and repeatedly retained.

However, Han Shoufu "became more and more sick" and resolute, so he went to the book again.

Emperor Kangping struggled to save several times to no avail, and thought of Han Shoufu's "physical well-being", and finally had no choice but to let people return, and at the same time rewarded countless rewards, in order to reward his achievements in loyalty to the king and the country at the cost of his life over the years, as well as the emperor's reluctance.

On the same day, the second assistant Xie Zhiyi was promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet, ranking first among the courtiers.

Emperor Kangping also gave countless rewards to express his expectation and importance.

With this cabinet change, Kangping's routine official evaluation in the past 14 years has also undergone major changes compared with the previous one, with promotions and demotion, transfer rewards and punishments, and so on.

After Han Yan left office, through the hands of Xie Zhiyi, he completed his last responsibility in the DPRK - to purge Sun Changyu's henchmen.

As for the promise promised to Sun Changyu for a ten-year period of time for the children of the Sun family, Han Yan also kept it - he didn't move a single member of the Sun family, but he just cut off their minions cleanly.

A tiger without claws can only honestly rely on its own ability to try to gain a firm foothold in this ever-changing court.

And Emperor Kangping, who was already in power, would never give the courtiers the opportunity to form a party and fight each other.

In March of the fifteenth year of Kangping, with the end of the last official transfer, the history of Taifu Auxiliary Government was completely over, and Emperor Kangping led the Wenchen team headed by Xie Zhiyi and the military general group headed by the new Zhenguo Duke Zhu Cheng, who was striding forward to create his own era!
