Chapter 622: Finale (7): Together for a lifetime
As the emperor, Wei Jin has also become busier than when he was in Jiliao, and Wei Ruo, as the queen, naturally has to deal with the affairs of the harem.
Fortunately, there are no people in the palace, Wei Jin has not accepted a concubine, and the emperor has not left any concubines, the personnel are simple, and there are no troublesome things.
Wei Ruo is proficient in things like daily personnel management, although the palace is more complicated, but the reason is still figured out, and the methods are also shared.
In addition, Wei Ruo participated in the disaster relief and cultivation in various places, and sometimes went to the former dynasty to participate in the discussion of politics, and discussed related matters with the ministers through the curtain.
Because of the successful case of Ji Liao, the ministers had no objection to Wei Ruo's participation in politics.
In a sense, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also belong to the same government of the emperor and queen.
And what they did was more complicated than when they were in Ji Liao, but with Ji Liao's experience, they are now familiar with it.
In addition, in her spare time, Wei Ruo still couldn't change her old habits, and she was also asked to set aside a piece of land in the imperial garden to grow some fruits and vegetables.
Occasionally, Wei Ruo could go out to play after Qiao Zhuang changed his appearance, but he was not too restrained.
And Wei Ruo also had a frank relationship with Wei Jin, she told him that if he changed his mind one day, he would let her go, she would not covet the position of the queen, nor would she let herself fall into hatred because of his change of heart, she lived in the palace because the person she loved was here.
She won't stop him from falling in love with other women, nor will she stop him from having three thousand beauties in the harem, because if he really wants to change his mind, she can't stop him.
She wants active and free love, not a bound marriage.
Wei Jin also agreed, he didn't make too many promises, only said that he would use time to prove everything.
Wei Ruo felt that she was a blessed person, and along the way, she was lucky to meet many people who treated her well, helped her protect her, and advanced and retreated with her.
Even if she was fighting for power, she didn't worry about anything.
Although there were occasional people like Wei Qingwan who made her feel uncomfortable, it didn't hurt her much.
Now that you are the queen, you should have to worry about the affairs of the harem and work hard for power and favor, but none of these things happened.
She, the queen, deserves to be worry-free, trivial matters are worried about her, and she can also let go of her hands to do what she is good at and what she is interested in.
Her second brother and her husband followed his promise to her, even if he was the emperor, he treated her as before, and even his name for her never changed, and he still called "second brother" when there were no outsiders in private.
She is very satisfied with everything now, very satisfied.
She had no way of knowing what would happen in the future, but that was all for later, and she would talk about it when she encountered it.

The following year, the name was changed to Xingning.
In the first year of Xingning, the climate was still not good, but God blessed the great cause, and new high-yield varieties were constantly discovered and promoted, and the people's harvest was gradually able to maintain food and clothing.
The situation has improved in various places, and the corresponding thieves have gradually decreased.
At the same time, the contradiction between Daye and the Jurchens eased, and the emperor summoned Xu Zhengyong, the general of Xinwu, to return to Beijing to make other arrangements.
When waiting for dispatch in the capital, General Xu married Xiumei, the palace lady next to the queen, and the emperor personally presided over the wedding for the two, and the queen sent ten miles of red makeup as a dowry, the scene was grand, not inferior to any noble girl in the capital to marry.
The following month, Lu Bei, a first-class guard beside the emperor, resigned and left Beijing and began to travel the rivers and lakes.
In the second year of Xingning, the queen was pregnant, and the emperor was overjoyed and ordered an amnesty to the world.
In the same year, Master Cui of the Ministry of Rites asked the emperor to take a concubine, but the emperor rejected it on the grounds that the family and country were unfair and unintentional harem.
Most people in the court are grateful for the queen's achievements for the country, and the emperor's heirs have no worries and support the emperor's move not to accept concubines.
In the third year of Xingning, the queen gave birth to her second son and named Chu Zhen.
In the same year, King Qin, who had been infertile for many years, also had his first child with Princess Qin, and it was rumored that the queen mother gave the two of them a conditioned body.
It was also this year that Fan Chengxu and Xie Ying also had their first child.
The two also set up an orphanage outside the capital, adopted orphans from all over the country, provided them with shelter, and taught them to read and write.
In the fourth year of Xingning, thanks to the joint efforts of the emperor and the empress, agriculture ushered in the first major revival in the past few years, grain production returned to the level of the tenth year of Renwu, and the national treasury was full.
In the sixth year of Xingning, the queen gave birth to three sons and named Chu Wei.
So far, no one in the court has mentioned the matter of asking the emperor to take a concubine.
The queen is more peaceful in the womb.
The court is stable, and the people live in peace.
And what reason is there to repeat the mistake of the first emperor and many sons competing for internal friction and hurting the country?
In the seventh year of Xingning, Wei Mingting, Marquis of Nan'an, was awarded the title of general, but he still led the troops all the year round, taking it as his responsibility to guard the frontier and defend the country, and rarely returned to Beijing.
In the ninth year of Xingning, the queen gave birth to a daughter named Chu Yue.
This year was another bumper harvest year, with agriculture as the foundation, other trade also flourished, and the overall economic level of the Daye Dynasty returned to the peak of the dynasty.
In the twelfth year of Xingning, Wei Yichen became the first assistant of the cabinet, and the Marquis Mansion of Nanning was very prosperous.
In the sixteenth year of Xingning, the Daye Dynasty ushered in unprecedented prosperity, and the taxes collected that year reached an unprecedented level, and the surrounding small countries came to congratulate.
In the eighteenth year of Xingning, the emperor was seriously ill, and the prince was in charge of the country, and in the winter of the same year, the emperor died, and the prince Chu Yan succeeded to the throne.
In the spring of the following year, the queen mother became ill because she missed the first emperor, and she couldn't afford to fall ill, and died half a month later, and was buried in the imperial mausoleum with the first emperor.
Wei Mingting, Marquis of Nan'an, returned to Beijing for funeral, and after attending the funeral of the queen mother, he resigned to the emperor, and took his family to Taizhou Mansion with the emperor's grace.
His eldest son Wei Yichen and his wife and children continued to stay in the capital, and the second son Wei Yilin went to Taizhou Mansion with his wife and children with his father and served as the guard of Taizhou Mansion.

After three months.
Jiliao City.
Former Rui Palace.
The original plaque was removed and replaced with a plaque from the Fuwang Mansion.
Chu Zhen, the second son of the first emperor, was awarded the title of King Fu and the fief Jiliao.
And in the mansion where King Fu was supposed to stay, there were two middle-aged people around forty years old.
Although the woman is old, the youthfulness of the girl has faded and there is a little more charm unique to a mature woman, her face is ruddy, and her elegance is still the same, and she can't tell that she is nearly forty years old.
The man's face is like a crown of jade, his posture is straight, his steps are light, and his internal strength is strong, and he is as elegant as a scholar when he is quiet.
At dusk, the woman cooked a few home-cooked dishes, and the couple had a simple dinner in the courtyard of Songzhuyuan.
After dinner, the two took a nap in the courtroom, and the woman snuggled into the man's arms, reflected in the afterglow of the setting sun.
"Second brother."
"Hmm."
"Thank you."
"Why?"
"Thank you for being with me for the rest of my life."
"It's me who should thank you for being in my life."
"Then we thank each other."
"Okay."
