The windows were shut, but the wind still whistled.

In the dormitory, even You Ji has retreated.

Only Wang Zhi accompanied the emperor, and seeing that the candles were about to burn out, she stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's late at night." ”

After saying this, the emperor still lowered his head, and kept waving the pen in his hand.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night." Said it again.

Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses slightly, and there was a burst of fragrance from his nose, "Oh." If you are sleepy, you go to sleep first. ”

Wang Zhi gritted her teeth lightly and made a relatively bold move, she pressed her hand on the emperor's left hand and pulled it gently, "If you stay up any longer, the sky will be bright." ”

"I know. But I just didn't sleep for a few hours, and the people in these books were still waiting for food for the winter. Zhu Houzhao frowned, "The war has greatly damaged the people's livelihood, judging from the transcripts in various places, in order to raise grain and grass, both the official army and the rebel army have collected the surplus grain of the people, otherwise how can a small Jiangxi Province supply an army of 100,000?" Therefore, many people are really facing the danger of cutting off cooking, which is worrying.

Moreover, there are too many people and too many men who have died in the war, and these people are numbers in the notebook, and in the village, they are often the most important labor force of the family, and they are vulnerable to bullying if they lose their men and leave orphans and widows. Fortunately, this battle was fought in winter, and it was only fought for a month, this year's harvest is still there, and next year's spring ploughing is also in time, and the court will have the opportunity to alleviate the pain of the people as much as possible. ”

There are no outsiders, and he doesn't even call himself me.

If possible, he still wants to keep some feelings, even if there are only a few people, even if there will be some days, but after losing his feelings, he really doesn't know what he will become, and at that time, as the emperor, where will he lead the Ming Dynasty?

These simple and true words moved her very much in Wang Zhi's ears, "The emperor is worried about the world, but because of this, the emperor needs to work more and take care of the dragon's body." ”

"It's okay, I have a number, it's just a night or two. I finished the recitals of these prefectures and counties in Jiangxi. In this way, it can be sent out as soon as it is dawn, otherwise it may be a day late if it is delayed a little. ”

Saying that, Zhu Houzhao put his mind back to these things he cared about, "Zhou Shangwen didn't make much effort to attack Nanchang that day, those defenders scattered in a hurry, it was good at the time, the official army conquered the city in one day, and the morale of the army was extremely strong, but most of these people who fled were rogues, and after being scattered in the wilderness, they became the henchmen of the government." What do you think should be done? ”

Normally, government affairs should not ask a woman.

However, Zhu Houzhao has been the emperor for more than ten years, his power is at his peak, and he is doing whatever he wants, and all the rules are no longer in his eyes.

Wang Zhixiu's eyebrows moved slightly, and after a little thought, her red lips opened lightly, "According to what the concubine thinks, Jiangxi is no longer suitable for the sake of fighting at this time, the people are afraid of it, and once the army passes, it will inevitably hurt the people, so this matter should still be gently cared for." It can be handed over to the prefects of various places, so that they can guard their own land, and those who offend the people will be exterminated with all their might, and if they are not ordinary, they will be allowed first. Knock on one place, slowly draw it, and resolve it with strength. ”

"That means time."

"Well, after a storm, the wind and drizzle should be gentle. In fact, the concubine was also thinking that Jiangxi was not a prosperous place for commerce, and not many people had the need to travel far away. ”

In a small-scale peasant society, the villages can have basic security, and this situation is good.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, so he approved this excerpt.

In the next two books in a row, there was no civil, but a certain official participated in so-and-so, saying how he was treacherous, and Zhu Houzhao didn't like to see this at this time.

He used to make a little trouble with these people under the pretext of excuses, but at this time, he couldn't take care of it, so he didn't care.

So I continued to flip through it, and when I saw a book from Jiujiang Mansion, my mood was a little lighter.

"Jiujiang is located on the bank of the Yangtze River, the transportation is convenient, after getting the relief grain, the local government quickly set up 48 porridge sheds in the capital and several county towns under its rule."

Wang Zhi said: "The emperor's grace is vast, and the Ming Dynasty is fortunate to have a Ming monarch like Your Majesty, and the people have one more way to live." ”

Zhu Houzhao considered that at this critical time, no one should dare to lie, and Liu Jin also went, so he was even more convinced in his heart.

This person is like this sometimes, he has been tense but he doesn't feel it, but as soon as he relaxes, he suddenly has an infinite sense of exhaustion welling up, and he can't help but yawn as he speaks.

"Your Majesty......"

"After the last two books are approved, you can order someone to get ready for bed."

Wang Zhi's heart finally relaxed, "Okay." ”

In winter, someone warms the bed, and he can still accept such feudal bad habits, so when he lies down, he doesn't feel cold at all, and he still has the body temperature of a beautiful woman in his arms.

In ancient times, most of the clothes, especially the nobles, were wide, and only when they were taken off and down from the waist could they feel that wonderful curvature.

And it's felt with your hands.

This time in Nanjing, the emperor did not bring other concubines, but has been served by her, but unfortunately she began to come to the body in the past two days, so she was worried, and still proposed: "Your Majesty, the concubine is inconvenient, do you want to call others to serve around?" ”

"No, who else will you change? At this time, they didn't even dare to say a word to me, and they endured it desperately, which was boring. ”

Wang Zhi's face was a little happy and a little embarrassed.

How do you think the emperor doesn't stop, "You also endured it at first, but then you were able to let it go." ”

Then there was a burst of coquettishness, "Your Majesty! ”

"Okay, okay, don't say it, don't say it." Zhu Houzhao laughed, and then hugged the person in his arms tighter, "I sometimes think that being the emperor must be the most beautiful thing in the world, the official robbed the woman, called lustful and obscene, and the emperor robbed it, so it was called the emperor's grace." But that's not the case. ”

"Yes...... The emperor doesn't like this? ”

"Well, it's easier to do more precisely, so I don't think it's beautiful in my heart."

Of course, it was beautiful in my heart at the beginning, but what I can do in the blink of an eye and do it every day, will I still feel beautiful?

Definitely not.

"Oh."

"Being an emperor is not so easy. Especially these days, I often dream. I dreamed of the magnificent names of Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and they said to me, you can't do it, you can't even give me a finger, eh, I'm very angry, why? But after waking up from a dream, I will laugh at myself, how difficult it is to compare with such people. ”

Wang Zhi said: "But in the hearts of the concubines, the emperor is the best king." The emperor wanted to be lenient and kind, but he was forced to be helpless. ”

"Haha......" Zhu Houzhao laughed lightly, but he was not very happy, "This time our prison in Jiangnanxing is not small, from now on, everyone will remember that Zhengde also has a cruel side." I'm not afraid of the arrangement of future generations, and I don't think about the names behind me, I'm just afraid of the current world, killing so many people, but there must be a good result. ”

"Your Majesty...... Do you want to stop? ”

"No, I can't take it. If you don't kill these people, they will become my Ming abscesses. ”

"Then Your Majesty is ......"

"If you do something to kill someone, you have to find a good reason for yourself. I'm just wondering, is this too hypocritical, shouldn't it be real, I'm the emperor, I hold life and death in my hands, and I don't need to let myself be stuck in the mud of good and evil. The emperor only needs the target. This goal is to make the Ming Dynasty stronger and more prosperous than when Taizu Taizong was in power. ”

This sentence is very profound.

Among his concubines, probably only Wang Zhi and the virtuous concubine can understand.

Wang Zhi answered: "This is the emperor. ”

Zhu Houzhao had a feeling of being hit, "Yes, this is the emperor." ”

"The concubine believes that the emperor will eventually achieve his goal and reach the other side."

She didn't even say a word that tried to pull him into her tenderness.

And Zhu Houzhao is also very able to understand.

"Tomorrow, I will issue an order to execute those thieves who are already on the list, the son will go to the father's trouble, the wife will go to the husband's trouble, I only see the history books, but I can't see my heart."

Wang Zhi only moved in her arms, "The concubine accompanies the emperor." ”
