Chapter 111: Zhao Yu: Is there such a good thing? No, be reserved!
"The Imperial History of the Supervision Yuan is recited: In order to speak bluntly about the first thing in the world, with the right way and the minister's position, seek peace and order for all generations: the monarch, the lord of all things among the subjects of the world. However, he is the lord of all things among the subjects of the world, and his responsibility is extremely heavy. Where the people's livelihood is good for the disease, if there is something inappropriate, there will be something that is not worthy of it. It is the way of the story king, and it should be prepared, and it is the duty of the ministers to make it all the words. The ministers did their best, and Jundaus said.
…………
Prevention is the first to cause the injury to be the first. Knowing and acting cautiously, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and he can ignore it. The white Arowana suit is not done by a saint.
Today, the minister heard that there was a treacherous villain inside, puffing out his lips and shaking his tongue, bewitching the saint to listen, and doing this thing of the white dragon fish suit.
When the ministers heard this, they sweated like pulp, and they couldn't wait to slash this thief in front of His Majesty!
There was also a private visit with the second concubine, entered Chu Yu's building, and auctioned.
Your Majesty is wise and powerful, rich in the world, how can he compete with the people and all the people?
…………
The minister holds the Lu and the outside is the obscenity, the minister is afraid of the crime and the face is obedient, His Majesty has not known and changed the behavior, the minister hates it. It is to die and be loyal, and to be worried about His Majesty's words. Between the reversal of feelings, and the rule of the world and the injustice, the peace and unrest of the people, but your Majesty pays attention, the sect is very fortunate, and the world is very fortunate. The minister was trembling and fearful, so he had his own personal knowledge and heard about it. ”
In the Zihuan Palace, looking at Gao Lishi's double-strand trembling, sweating profusely after reading this letter of Yu Translation, to be precise, it was a warning, Zhao Yu asked expressionlessly:
"Gao Lishi, what do you think, how is Yu Zhongxiang's recital?"
As soon as Zhao Yu's words fell, Gao Lishi knelt on the ground with a "plop" and sobbed:
"Your Majesty, please also ask Your Majesty to punish slaves and maids for capital crimes!"
"Oh, tell me, what are your sins?"
Zhao Yu looked at Gao Lishi kneeling in front of him and raised his eyebrows.
"Slave, slave maid did not obey His Majesty's will, and almost ruined His Majesty's affairs."
Gao Lishi said tremblingly.
Hearing him say this, Zhao Yu lost interest for a while, waved his hand to signal him to get up from the ground, and said: "This slave is responsible for me, and he was caught by that Yu Zhongxiang." Yu Zhongxiang's stubborn donkey is stubborn and even I have a headache, let alone you? I have done a good job of not confessing the two mothers, how can I blame you, a minion? ”
Seeing that Gao Lishi looked "relieved", Zhao Yu continued:
"However, there are some things that still need to be done on the face. I will punish you for half a year, and in addition, let people inform the Warm Spring Pavilion and the Qingqiu Hall that the monthly payment of the two of them will be reduced by half as a punishment. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
When Gao Lishi heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground again and kowtowed to Zhao Yu a few times.
"During this time, you quietly combed the inside of this palace again, and chopped up all the claws that came in outside!" Speaking of this, there was anger in Zhao Yu's tone.
Gao Lishi didn't dare to lie to himself, he said that he didn't confess the two daughters of Yin Wanwan and Bai Qing'er, so where did Yu turn this stubborn donkey come from?
Don't think about it, these courtiers must still have eyeliner in this palace.
And this is understandable by Zhao Yu, but it is absolutely intolerable.
Who wants to wear what they wear to bed tonight and end up at the ministers' desks the next day?
Who can stand this kind of life without a little privacy?
So, he had to give these courtiers a warning!
"As for Yu Zhongxiang's recital, just stay in the middle and don't send it."
Zhao Yu checked the thin letter in his hand and said lightly.
Yu translated Shuli, right or wrong, his starting point is still the traditional scholar's set, hoping that the emperor will stay in the palace honestly and let the courtiers do their duty, so as to achieve the effect of ruling the arch.
This kind of thinking may have been possible in the prosperous era of unification, but now it is a chaotic era of various countries competing for hegemony.
Zhao Yu, as an emperor who relied on tough means to turn the tables in a desperate situation, it was impossible for him to completely delegate the power in his hands and rule by himself.
In his opinion, isn't it to rule by hanging the arch, but in fact, isn't it to make himself, the emperor, the mascot of a country?
In Zhao Yu's view, this is completely unacceptable.
…………
In a wine shop next to the royal street, Chu Ziwen and Cao Huanzheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, were sitting on old wooden chairs like ordinary people, drinking a glass of wine with only a few copper coins, while watching the pedestrians on the royal street.
"Brother Chu, the twists and turns of Yu Zhongxiang Yu Yushi in your Supervision Yuan were left by His Majesty, I wonder if Brother Chu can know?"
"Cao Shangshu, if the official says he doesn't know, then you are called strange."
"Among the three people promoted by His Majesty at the end of last year, Zhuge Ziyu is also long-sleeved and good at dancing in our Ministry of Rites, which has won praise from many colleagues; That Buzi Mountain has also made great achievements in the household department; It's just that this Yu Zhongxiang ......"
Speaking of this, Cao Huan shook his head and said nothing, and gently took a sip of the faint rice wine in the cup.
"Cao Shangshu, this Yu Translation Official also has a headache!" Speaking of Yu Turning, Chu Ziwen also shook his head, and he couldn't help but pour bitter water, "This guy is simply a stubborn donkey, or he doesn't go, he fights backwards, and he is stubborn to the extreme." Originally, when he showed the official to see the recital, the official persuaded him that His Majesty had a plan in his heart, and asked him not to go to the table first, and then look at the direction of the wind. He didn't listen, saying that the imperial history was already responsible for the rumors, and the official couldn't resist him, so he could only go with him. ”
"He entered this supervision house late, and he didn't see His Majesty's way of going to the old age. That is not something that ordinary people can do, even a shrewd person like Huang Jingming was bluffed by His Majesty, and finally capsized in the gutter. Chu Ziwen sighed, "Don't look at Your Majesty's young age, but everything he does has a clear eye and rules to follow, if anyone underestimates him, then wait for the future." ”
"Not really."
Cao Huan nodded and said:
"It's not quiet in the palace these days, and that tall mink has kicked many people out of the palace."
Speaking of this, the two looked at each other and sighed in unison.
In the future, it will be even more difficult to know His Majesty's whereabouts in the palace.
"Actually, according to the official's opinion, it is not a big deal for His Majesty to take the two ladies out of the palace." Cao Huan groaned for a moment and said.
Chu Ziwen didn't understand what Cao Huan meant for a while, and asked:
"Cao Shangshu, how do you say this?"
"Brother Chu, you think, Your Majesty is just a young man, he is active by nature, and he is in power for the first time, how can he resist the shackles of the deep palace. Only then did he rely on his own force, thinking of a way to get out of the palace, first, to breathe, and secondly, to see the style of Shenjing, and to listen to the people's evaluation of their own government. We should also understand these courtiers. ”
Cao Huan explained.
Chu Ziwen thought about it and said with a wry smile:
Cao Shangshu's words are quite deviant, but they make sense. However, if this goes on for a long time, if something happens to His Majesty after leaving the palace, our courtiers will be pointed at by thousands of people. ”
This open knife is easy to block, but the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, even if His Majesty's martial arts are superb, but if the horse accidentally misses the front hoof, it will be a big trouble.
This kind of thing can't be worried about by those of them who are courtiers.
Cao Huan groaned and said his thoughts.
"This official thinks so, first, please inform us as courtiers before leaving the palace, so that everyone can be prepared, and second, please ask Your Majesty to draft a concubine."
"The first article can still be understood, but why is the second one?"
"It is said that this time His Majesty left the palace, it was Concubine Huang and Bai Zhaoyuan who picked it up. But if there are many more concubines in His Majesty's harem, which one will His Majesty take with him if he wants to leave the palace again? You can't take it all with you, right? This man does not suffer from few, but from inequality. In this way, if you can go, you will be happy, but what will happen if you can't? When His Majesty returns to the palace, he will definitely mention it in His Majesty's ears. After going back and forth, His Majesty was annoyed by the noise, and he extinguished the idea of leaving the palace. ”
Cao Huan said in a low voice:
Of course, that's just a reason. Moreover, Your Majesty is now in a stable position, and it is time to consider selecting concubines, enriching the harem, and continuing the imperial heir. Your Majesty has descendants, and those of us who are courtiers can settle down, right? ”
As the saying goes, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater.
Whether the emperor has an heir or not is not only a matter for the emperor himself, but also a major event for the entire country.
Because whether it is for the royal family or for the court, the existence of the imperial heir plays a vital role.
As long as the harem is stable and substantial, and the emperor has heirs to continue, he can stabilize people's hearts and stabilize the court.
"What Cao Shangshu said is reasonable!" Chu Ziwen nodded, and said with a straight face, "It's just that you and I are co-branded, it's not enough, and we need to let several other people also participate." ”
"What Brother Chu said is exactly what this official thinks."
…………
On this day, the main hall of the Purple Palace.
Zhao Yu was sitting behind the imperial case to review the chapter, and saw Gao Lishi walking over with a lunge.
"Your Majesty, Chu Ziwen in the Imperial History, Cao Huan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Ma Xian, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, ask to see you."
"Oh, it's strange that these three people have come to see me together, let them in."
Zhao Yu said as he put down the pen in his hand.
Soon, a sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, and Chu Ziwen and the three of them came to the hall under the guidance of Gao Lishi.
"Ministers to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"
The three of them arched their hands.
"Gao Lishi, give a seat to the three Aiqing and give tea."
Zhao Yu said with a smile, Fang glanced at the three of them and asked:
"I don't know why the three Aiqing came here at this time?"
Chu Ziwen and the three of them had just sat on the stool, and when they heard Zhao Yu ask like this, they hurriedly stood up.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do," Cao Huan bowed and said, "It's just that this matter has a lot to do with it, and there is no choice but to do it, so Weichen pulled Chu Zhongcheng and Ma Shangshu over." ”
"I'm not the kind of emperor who gets convicted for his words, as long as what you say makes sense, I'm sure to listen to you."
Zhao Yu laughed and said like this.
Well, listen to it, but whether you do it or not is another matter.
"What Weichen means is that in His Majesty's harem, there is only one Huang Concubine and Bai Zhaoyuan now. Weichen is the plan of the Great Chu Tianxia Society, and implores His Majesty to consider enriching the harem, and select a number of beautiful and dignified people from the marriageable women of the gate lords, nobles and officials to enter the palace, one to relieve His Majesty's loneliness, and the other to extend the heirs of the royal family. ”
Zhao Yu blinked his eyes in disbelief.
What did Cao Huan just say, draft concubines and enrich the harem?
And the good thing that such courtiers urge themselves to draft concubines?!
But in the next moment, Zhao Yu calmed down.
Well, you are an emperor yourself, so be reserved!
"Ahem!"
Zhao Yu coughed lightly, and said:
"Qing and other good intentions, I have received it. It's just that now that I have ascended the throne, I have made an oath in front of the ancestors and ancestors of Taimiao, taking Zhongxing Dachu as my own responsibility, working hard to govern the country, and not misleading national affairs because of the private affairs of the harem; In addition, the matter of selecting concubines costs the people and money, and if you are not careful, it will cause public resentment to boil, so it is better to put this matter on hold for the time being. ”
This time, it was Cao Huan's turn to be dumbfounded.
I have sent all the meat to His Majesty's mouth, and His Majesty will not eat it?
If it weren't for the fact that the two concubines in His Majesty's harem were stunning, and His Majesty was at the age of young Mu Ai, they would almost be numb.
How good is that?
There was no way, Cao Huan and the three of them had to keep asking Zhao Yu to draft a concubine, but Zhao Yu kept looking for reasons to shirk and refuse, and the four of them staged a good show of kings and saints and sages in this Zihuan Palace, and the corners of Gao Lishi's mouth twitched when they saw it on the side.
Finally, after three resignations and three concessions, Zhao Yu "reluctantly" agreed, with only one request, that is, not to be drafted in a big way, and not to work hard and lose money.
So, at the beginning of February of the first year of Yanfeng, the imperial court issued a decree.
All Dachu officials, whose status is above the fifth grade, but have unmarried women of appropriate age, can participate in the draft.
And on February 15, Zhao Yu also opened the latest card pack.

Well, these two are both surnamed Zhou......
