Chapter 166: There is hope for the Ming Dynasty
The mentality of the Emperor of the Apocalypse has changed.
I am a man with a son.
My son is so good-looking, he even looks so smart when he sleeps.
In the future, he will definitely be able to succeed the great unification and be a good emperor.
I can't be lazy anymore, I want to rule the world, I have to be diligent in government, and I have to settle all those messy things. When I pass the throne to the immortals, at least I won't have any regrets in my heart.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was full of vigor at this time, and people's mentality changed, and their temperament also changed.
He put his hands behind his back and continued to Zhang Jingyi: "The resettlement of the displaced people is a big problem now, the drought in Guanzhong is rare in a hundred years, I am most worried about this matter now, Zhang Qing, you don't have to blame yourself in this matter, think about it more, and share your worries for me." ”
Zhang Jingyi's mood also relaxed: "Obey the order." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "Your father, the earl, this is right, you still have two brothers?" ”
"Yes, one is called Wang Cheng and the other is Deng Jian, both of whom are the general banners of the hundred households."
Emperor Apocalypse said: "This is also a national uncle, they are still young, but they still need to be motivated, and they will inherit the hereditary brocade clothes and guard thousands of households." ”
These thousands of households are actually fictitious, but they are not lacking, so theoretically, Wang Cheng and Deng Jian are still only chief flag officers.
However, the advantage of hereditary thousand households is that this thing is a real iron rice bowl, the kind that can be passed on to the next generation, only those second sons or concubines who have a title cannot inherit the title, and the court will give it.
With this...... is also half of the royal family.
Zhang Jingyi hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse glared at him at this time: "Whatever happens in the future, you need to inform me." And also...... This thing...... The true situation must not be revealed, if not...... The key to immortality. ”
When he said the last sentence, the expression on his face was extremely serious.
Zhang Jing also felt that he valued Changsheng, so he said very sincerely: "Changsheng is also the nephew of the minister, how dare I talk nonsense, what should Your Majesty be a minister?" ”
"Oops." After the Emperor of the Apocalypse finished talking about important things, he seemed to be absent-minded: "But I don't know if Changsheng has finished feeding his mother's milk, whether he has slept or not, he has just been tossed for so long, and he may be frightened, I will touch his ears and give him a surprise." ”
Zhang Jingyi: "......"
He touches his ears, but it's different for me as an uncle, I touch xx.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse personally drove back to the palace with Changsheng in his arms.
The mighty procession surrounded the Emperor of the Apocalypse and drove back to the palace, and the Zhang family also became cold.
But soon, a shocking news spread all over the capital, making the Zhang family the focus of attention all of a sudden.
Cabinet......
Huang Li was extremely depressed, and His Majesty's early morning actions made him feel uneasy.
He even thinks that this may be a sign that Donglin is going to be reactivated.
In fact...... Where in the world are there any eunuchs?
The so-called eunuchs, except for Wei Zhongxian, are actually mostly Wenchen who were rejected by Donglin at the beginning.
Donglin ascended to the throne and excluded dissidents, especially after mastering the Ministry of Officials, people like Huang Liji, who were born in the north, as well as the former Chu Party, Zhejiang Party, and Qi Party, these ministers of origin were often suppressed by the Donglin Party.
To put it bluntly, it's just that the party is fighting against differences, a large number of Donglin backbones are on the rise, and the rest of them are either impeached and dismissed by Donglin, or they have been suppressed and can't raise their heads.
This is also the reason why Wei Zhongxian raised his arms and shouted, and suddenly countless henchmen took refuge in Wei Zhongxian! Your Donglin Party keeps saying that the country is the world and controls the power of the imperial court. Are we not allowed to unite with Wei Zhongxian and fight with you?
Although the remnants of the Donglin Party were attacked, in the world public discussion they led, Huang Liji was regarded as a eunuch!
And Huang Liji himself, obviously not looking at it this way, what Wei Zhongxian controls is actually just a factory guard, he is more of a collaborator of Wei Zhongxian, rather than a role like a henchman!
Through the alliance with Wei Zhongxian, he excluded the Donglin Party, the Northern Shiren, who had been the dominant party in the past, and united the Chu Party, the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party to liquidate Donglin.
Can these ...... Who cares? With such a complex political landscape, people don't like to delve into it, but they only like the black and white stories of the good guys and the bad guys.
At this time...... There was another uproar outside.
Huang Liji suddenly showed a look of disgust, this must be tossed by those who are waiting for Zhao Hanlin! The cabinet is really getting more and more unruly......
So, he kept a straight face and coughed deliberately.
The scribe outside heard the movement and hurried in.
Huang Liji said with a calm face: "What happened again?" ”
The scribe's face looked complicated, and he said, "Just now...... Here's a message...... Hanlin ...... All shocked......"
"What's the news?" Huang Liji's heart...... It's going to jump out.
Don't...... Going to change?
At this time...... However, Sun Chengzong hurriedly walked in and said, "Huang Gong...... Have you heard of it? ”
Huang Liji said: "The old man is listening. ”
Sun Chengzong said: "Huang Gong is the first assistant, why haven't you heard of such a big event?" ”
Huang Liji: "......"
Huang Liji felt that he was deeply hurt again.
He blushed and wanted to say something......
Sun Chengzong said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty...... gave birth. ”
"Yike...... Yikes...... Yikes...... Ah......h......h
Sun Chengzong looked at him speechlessly, and then said: "I mean, I have an extra prince in Daming, who is born by Concubine Zhang, where do you want to go." ”
Huang Liji trembled, he had changed from one surprise to another, and then, Huang Liji was ecstatic: "Is it really? ”
"Absolutely." Sun Chengzong said: "It's complicated, Your Majesty...... After all, I'm still young and confused...... What did he say that there were ghosts and monsters in the palace, and after the Zhang family became pregnant, he actually asked his mother's family to secretly take the Zhang family back to his parents' house to give birth...... This...... It's so undeserved, it's broken ...... the patriarchal law."
As the mentor of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Sun Chengzong subconsciously wanted to criticize a few words.
But soon, this reproach and unhappiness were replaced by great joy!
Sun Chengzong stroked his beard and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth: "Let's leave tonight, let's have a few drinks here, how about it?" People are in good spirits when they are happy......"
Huang Liji was so happy at this time that he danced with his hands, and even burst into tears, he stood up and took a few quick steps, obviously extremely excited in his heart!
He doesn't care if it's in accordance with the patriarchal law or not.
Your Majesty needs to have a son, and you, the first assistant, also need Your Majesty to have a son......
"Okay, okay, it's okay now......" He trembled, suddenly burst into tears, bowed down in the direction of the three major halls, kowtowed, and said sincerely: "There is hope, there is hope, I have hope." ”
This kind of excitement is incomprehensible to others.
Immediately, Huang Liji glanced at the scribe on the side.
"Wait for the edicts, because of this uproar?"
"Yes." The scribe said, "Some people say...... It's not etiquette. There is no reason for the prince to be born outside the palace, and ...... Some people think that something is wrong, and when the prince is born, there is no clan jade plate to rely on......"
Huang Liji suddenly sneered, and then said, "The bloodline of the Heavenly Family, is it also something they can discuss?" Sun Gong, let's go, we'll ...... immediately Go to Daoga. ”
As smart as Sun Chengzong, he immediately understood what Huang Liji meant.
This is controversial.
But so what? His Majesty recognizes this son, and the people in the palace also recognize this son, whether it is the concubine or the queen, or Wei Zhongxian...... It's all the same position at this point.
And Huang Liji is the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, Sun Chengzong is half a clear stream example, and he also takes into account the cabinet scholars, as long as Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong take the lead in congratulating, then those murmurs will be insignificant.
Sun Chengzong also seemed to feel that now was the time when the controversy was the greatest, and he needed to quickly cook the raw rice into rice, so he nodded: "Go with you." ”
On the same day, Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong led the various departments to enter the palace to congratulate.
Suddenly...... It's a foregone conclusion.
At this time...... Although there were occasional doubts, they were quickly silenced.
At least now the soldiers and civilians in the capital are talking more about the newborn prince, what the prince looks like, or this concubine...... What is the family background.
The power of gossip covers everything up after all.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse really began to be diligent, he was fierce and fierce, and he was carefully reviewing the recitals for seven or eight consecutive days, morning and evening.
When I stopped occasionally, I took a sip of tea and asked the most: "What happened to Changsheng?" If he sleeps, let him cover himself with a covering, so that he will not suffer from the cold. ”
"Did he eat it? Some people don't understand such things as breastfeeding, don't feed too much, don't feed too little, but you need to be diligent ......"
"I thought about it, Changsheng must not be used to coming to this palace suddenly, no wonder he always cries, he hasn't seen his uncle for many days, find time, let Zhang Qing coax him, don't allow Zhang Qing to use busy official business as an excuse, no matter how busy he is, is he busy? I rule the world, and he governs a county. ”
What Wei Zhongxian does every day is to run back and forth from the harem to the Xiyuan, and then from the Xiyuan to the harem, and the others go to visit the prince, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is very uneasy, only Wei Zhongxian goes, he is at ease.
Wei Zhongxian has also been happy these days, although he knows what is hidden in this, but he is very decisive and did not send someone to investigate thoroughly, because His Majesty has already determined the nature, and the essence of a thorough investigation is to reveal the bottom of His Majesty, as long as Changsheng is the son of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it will be done.
But...... There is no controversy about the fact that immortality is the bloodline of the Apocalypse, it is too similar, and the time is also very consistent.
There was suddenly an extra child in the palace, which made this treacherous palace suddenly a little more relaxed, and also made this dull palace a little more vibrant.
This is an extremely rare situation in the nearly eight years since the apocalypse ascended the throne.
