Seeing that the draft was in full swing, Deng Meng was very depressed, and unconsciously gently stroked his flat abdomen with his jade hand.

It's also strange, it's been a year and a half since she gave birth to her daughter Liu Hua, and His Majesty has not been less fortunate to be in the Hehuan Palace, but she just couldn't get pregnant again.

Could it be that she was destined to have no children?

Although in the first month, she was forced to personally make a proposal to the emperor, asking him to take the heirs of the dynasty as the priority and draft a concubine.

But now, seeing a group of delicate willow-like warblers living in the garden, Yanyan is very uncomfortable.

The middle of August is approaching, which is the Mid-Autumn Festival stipulated by His Majesty's edict, and it is also a festival that symbolizes the reunion of ten thousand families, so His Majesty allowed her to go out of the palace to visit her parents.

On this day, Deng Meng took Princess Yang'an and returned to the Nandun Marquis Mansion lightly.

Mrs. Xuan had already gotten the news, stood in front of the door and looked forward to it, and when she saw her daughter's figure, she couldn't help but smile.

"Grandmother."

Princess Yang'an can walk at the age of one, and now she is one and a half years old, and she is so articulate that she already knows many titles.

Looking at Yuxue's cute little granddaughter, Mrs. Xuan only felt that her heart was about to melt.

The chubby little girl threw herself into her arms without hesitation, and although the grandparents and grandchildren did not see each other much, they were very affectionate.

After entering the mansion and saying a few pleasantries, Deng Meng looked at Yang Yi who was standing on the side, and said with a smile:

"My sister-in-law is pregnant, don't be too formal, it's all a family, sit down and rest, so as not to hurt your body and worry your mother."

Mrs. Xuan also hurriedly asked her to sit down, and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is good at everything, but she is too restrained." ”

Yang Yi came from a family of scholars, and her grandfather respected Zhou etiquette and taught her very strictly, so these etiquettes have been engraved into her bones and become habits.

However, Deng Yan is busy with affairs, and he is very satisfied with this wife who is knowledgeable and courteous, and is as light as a chrysanthemum.

After more than half a year of marriage, Yang Yi finally became pregnant, and now she is pregnant with Liujia and has become Mrs. Xuan's baby bump.

Yang Yi couldn't refuse, so she thanked her seat and sat down, Mrs. Xuan saw that there was a faint worry between her daughter's eyebrows, so she persuaded.

"Fierce girl, Your Majesty's relationship with you is not ordinary, and it is rare to be drafted only after five years on the throne.

You are still young, and there will be more opportunities in the future, but don't push Your Majesty to others in vain for the sake of momentary anger. ”

When Deng Meng heard this, he was shocked, was his mind so obvious? Wouldn't it be that the Empress Dowager Yun had already seen it in her eyes.

"Mother, I know that I am wrong, Your Majesty has a deep affection for me, and I am not angry, so I can't blame anyone."

Saying that, Mrs. Xuan smiled, "I'll pay attention to it later." ”

"You have to think clearly, if you want to go further, apart from the offspring, virtue is the most important.

Moreover, Your Majesty is pure filial piety, who should be established in the future, I am afraid that the words of the Queen Mother will carry the most weight. ”

Mrs. Xuan has gone through vicissitudes and is transparent, and her words can be said to hit the nail on the head, which made Deng Meng suddenly enlightened.

Who said that you can't be a queen without a prince, just look at Emperor Shun's Empress Dowager Liang and Emperor An's Empress Dowager Deng, both of whom are desolate under their knees, but they can sit firmly in the back seat.

It is not the name of virtue that everyone praises.

What's more, she also has Liu Zhiairuo's daughter who is the pearl in her palm.

After getting along for a few years, she still understands Liu Zhi's character, and she values her relatives very much, and she believes that she has an extraordinary status in His Majesty's heart.

As long as she is at peace and is not jealous or quarrelsome, His Majesty will always take herself to heart, on the contrary, the more she suffers from gains and losses, yin and yang are weird, and if she doesn't get it right, she will soon be rejected.

"Thanks to my mother's teachings, the fierce girl really understands."

Seeing that her face was calm, Mrs. Xuan was also relieved, during these days, she had been worried that Deng Meng would not be able to think about it and make some inappropriate moves, ruining her future.

But every time we meet recently, I am in the Queen Mother's Yongle Palace, and it is inconvenient to speak, so I can only be secretly anxious in my heart.

You must know that this is not only related to Deng Meng's personal happiness, but also the palace dispute, and often involves the safety of the family.

At the beginning, Deng Meng was helpless to enter the palace, but now there is no way out, and he is further walking on thin ice, taking a step back and trembling.

has already taken this road, if Deng Meng does not force himself to mature, and is still as willful as he is now, he is afraid of a tragic end in the future.

You must know that today's emperor Liu Zhi is no longer what it used to be, he is in power, and he is looking forward to Shenfei, which is the time when he is young and vigorous.

I hope that her own words, she really heard in her heart.

After lunch, Deng Meng returned to the palace from the Nantun Marquis Mansion, carefully baked a few moon cakes with Deng Wan, and sent them to Yongle Palace respectfully.

He also instructed the royal chef to distribute some mooncakes to all the beauties in the court as a reward.

Empress Dowager Yun was busy with the marriage of the princess of Changshe a few days ago, and she had to take time to care about the draft, so she was very busy and snubbed Deng Meng.

At this time, I saw her carrying a snack box and walking over with Liu Hua with a smile, and I felt a little sorry in my heart.

"Granddaughter greets grandmother."

Liu Hua's voice is crisp and lively, and he is well-behaved and lively, which is deeply loved by the Queen Mother.

"Grandmother, this is a mooncake made by your mother for you, you can taste it, it's delicious."

Seeing the little girl's expectant eyes, the Empress Dowager Yun was full of joy and quickly took the food box and tasted one.

Inside is the Empress Dowager Yun's favorite osmanthus sugar filling, which is sweet and delicious, and she can't help but nod again and again.

"I like it very much, thank you for your hard work."

With the words of the Queen Mother, no matter how tired he is, Deng Meng is also willing.

For a while, Princess Yiyang came, and she also came to tease Liu Hua, and the newlywed princess of Changshe naturally came to greet the Queen Mother, and Yongle Palace suddenly became lively.

The Queen Mother instructed the new Yongle Palace servant Zuo Yi, "Go and send some moon cakes to those little ladies in the court, and leave home for the first time, which is also pitiful." ”

After a while, Zuo Yi came back to his life, "Back to the Queen Mother, Deng Guiren has already ordered someone to send it." ”

Empress Dowager Yun looked at her with some surprise, "It's hard for you to think thoughtfully." ”

For Deng Meng, Empress Dowager Yun is satisfied with everything else, but her strength is a little smaller, and she has always been reluctant to accept Liu Zhi's draft, which makes her a little unhappy.

You must know that in the heart of the Empress Dowager Yun, she has always treated Deng Meng as a serious daughter-in-law, and she has always done a good job.

But this time, it made the Empress Dowager a little hesitant, if she is narrow-minded, how can she be worthy of the back position?

But today, Deng Meng's actions made the Empress Dowager Yun can't help but re-examine her, little girl, it's good to figure it out, it seems that she still has a promising future.

"Back to my mother, the concubines are just pushing others, thinking that they are also teenagers and leaving home, they will feel a little homesick."

The Empress Dowager Yun saw that she was downright and generous, and she didn't mean anything reluctant, so she couldn't help but appreciate it very much.

"I'm old, I can't be patient, how hard you have worked to select the palace maids, and you will take care of it more over there."

Deng Meng's heart was beating like a drum, and he didn't expect that just a small move could be exchanged for such treatment.

Presiding over the draft, this is the power that only the queen can exercise, and then secretly woke up, this is likely to be the test of the Empress Dowager Yun, and she must do it well.

Otherwise, when the palace is full of fragrance, he may not be able to excel, and what he relies on is just a few years of advanced palace.

"No, the concubine will do her best, but I am young and inexperienced, so I ask my mother to give me more advice."

The most important thing now is attitude, the humble and generous posture must be done enough, no mother does not want her son to spread out and fill the house with children and grandchildren.

"Don't worry, I'll let the left one give you a hand, there should be no problem."

The left one is an old man in the palace, who has served the Empress Dowager Liang for many years, and has been a regular attendant, both in terms of qualifications and experience.

What's more, he also has the double trust of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, and it is both a good thing and a bad thing for such a person to be by his side.

With his way, if he does things in violation of the yang and yin, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape his eyes.

Therefore, although he can assist him in handling palace affairs, he is also monitoring and testing himself for the Queen Mother.

It seems that she has to brace her spirit and work hard to get this thing done.

As he was talking, Liu Zhi also came from the Zhongde Hall and heard about Deng Meng. There was also some surprise.

He has always known that Deng Meng is very repulsive about the draft, depressed, little girl, it is normal to be a little jealous, if there is no at all, it would be strange.

That's why he specially allowed Deng Meng to go back to his parents' house today, just to let her relax.

I didn't expect her to go back home, there would be such a big change, it seems that Mrs. Xuan has comforted her.

"Your Majesty has some requirements for this draft, and the concubine is so prepared."

Seeing her smiling lightly, Liu Zhi also breathed a sigh of relief, he still has feelings for Deng Meng, even if the harem is full in the future, her status is also special.

"There's nothing very special required, you just need to take care of their daily life, and after a while, I'll pick one myself."

Pick it yourself?

Deng Meng raised his eyebrows and didn't make a sound, the rules of the Han court are to check whether the internal servants meet the regulations first, and then draw a good portrait and select it by the emperor.

But Liu Zhidu has always despised stereotypes and bad habits and likes to be mavericks, which Deng Meng has long known, so he will not question it.

It is quite simple to only need to take care of their daily life, it seems that she still focuses more on selecting palace maids, so as not to be misunderstood.

Deng Meng, who has made up his mind, is no longer entangled, he already has so many advantages, as long as he finds a way to keep it.

The family happily spent the first Mid-Autumn Festival of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Zhi ordered the Jingshi to hang lanterns everywhere, eat moon cakes, worship the moon, etc., which was very lively.

There are also lantern festivals in the palace, and there are exquisite lights and shadows everywhere, adding some popularity to the cold palace, and Liu Zhi put Kong Ming lanterns as usual to pray for his mother and the Han.

A few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was bad news, an earthquake occurred in Donghai County, Xuzhou, and a tsunami was triggered, and some casualties were heavy.

I thought that this year would be smooth and rainy, but it seems that God is still embarrassed for him as always.

Fortunately, this year, the guidelines for disaster prevention and relief have been issued, and governments at all levels have studied them, so that in the event of a major disaster, local governments can carry out disaster relief operations on their own while asking for instructions.

When a disaster occurs, the lieutenants of the prefectures and counties should also take the initiative to rush to the rescue, and strictly implement the principle that when one side is in trouble, all sides will provide support.

Therefore, when the news was sent, all counties in Xuzhou had already invested in the rescue work of the disaster as quickly as possible.

Liu Zhi immediately convened an emergency court meeting and instructed the six Shangshu to provide disaster relief as soon as possible, especially the household department to quickly raise relief materials and food.

The tsunami was more devastating than the earthquake itself, affecting the coast of the East China Sea, engulfing many fishing villages in the seashore and leaving fishermen without survival.

In the face of such a natural disaster, even if he is the soul of the later generations, there is nothing he can do, after all, even in the later generations, with highly developed technology, it is difficult to accurately predict the specific time and location of the earthquake.

Therefore, in addition to post-disaster rescue, he, as an emperor, can't do anything else.

In the face of the power of nature, man is so small.

In the past two years, Dahan's medical skills have developed very rapidly, in addition to the Tai Hospital, all prefectures, counties and counties have special medical offices, and after the disaster occurred, they have also rushed to the disaster area according to the system.

From the beginning to the end, everyone at the court meeting was only discussing how to provide disaster relief, and no one mentioned the matter of dismissal.

You must know that last summer, Liu Zhi also used the floods in Jingzhou and Yangzhou as a reason to remove Huang Qiong, the then lieutenant.

Now, the imperial court has changed the system, and there is no longer the existence of the Three Princes, but the cabinet ministers of the Zhongshu Province, the Secretary Province and the Military Aircraft Office are all equal to the Three Princes.

If there is a real need to remove one to accuse God, one of them must bear the guilt.

But Liu Zhi never mentioned it, and the others also wisely chose to keep their mouths shut, just kidding, these people are all His Majesty's henchmen, who is impeached, and the one who ultimately offends is the emperor.

Because of the earthquake in Xuzhou, Liu Zhi was so busy that he had already thrown the draft out of the clouds.

When the disaster is over and the losses are counted, the population has been reduced by more than 5,000 people, which is really pitiful and lamentable.

Fortunately, the post-disaster reconstruction was already well underway, and after a field visit, the local government moved the newly built village to a higher terrain.

In this way, some of the tsunami risks can be prevented, and the fishermen's food, clothing, shelter and transportation are also properly arranged.

In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of September, and the selection of palace maids had ended, and a total of 1,500 were selected this time, and some of the older people were also released.

On this day, Liu Zhi suddenly remembered that he seemed to have chosen some beauties and put them in the court, so he decided to take a look on a whim.

The fifty women in the court have lived here for almost two months, and there is no news at all.

Some of them began to make up their minds, wanting to use money to bribe the palace attendants and find out the news.

It just so happened that on this day, Liu Zhi deliberately changed the color of the yellow door, pretended to be a eunuch, and came to the court to see if there was a woman he liked.

After all, if he came here in his own capacity, I am afraid that he would not be able to see their true colors at all.

When the time comes, I pick some masked people and come back, but it is not myself who suffers.

Liu Zhi has never been here in the court, he only brought two little eunuchs, carried something, and came in pretending.

Today's weather is very good, the autumn is high and cool, the garden is full of golden cinnamon fragrance, chrysanthemums are yellow, and the girls who have nothing to do are scattered in the garden to enjoy the autumn colors.
