Sitting in the carriage, Zhu Qiyu asked the concubine, "The concubine wasn't scared today, was she?" I have killed a lot of people today, and I have promoted eleven eunuchs to replace Jin Ying and Xing'an to take charge of the inner court. ”

The concubine smiled: "Kill it, kill it, I know you can't help it." If we don't kill the last batch and let the inner court know who is the master of the world, we will always be as scared as thieves when we enter the palace. ”

Lin Xiangyu snuggled up to the concubine, frowned slightly, and echoed: "The concubine is right, if it weren't for the fact that there was no way, I wouldn't want to go to that place again for the rest of my life."

The dignified queen can be served lame by a group of palace people, this world is really called an evil nature. ”

Zhu Qiyu said softly: "If you don't go, you won't go, you won't have to go in the future." In a few days, let's go to the Wuding Marquis Mansion to finish the recognition ceremony, and then we will hold the Zhengdan Festival on the first day of the Jingtai Dynasty.

After that, let's immediately pack up our things and go to Yushan Hot Springs to relax and relax. ”

When Lin Xiangyu heard this, she immediately smiled and asked the concubine: "Mother concubine go live with us, it's not interesting to stay in the city all the time." ”

The concubine smiled: "Go ahead, people are old and old, I just want to live in the old Han Palace." ”

Zhu Qiyu also joked: "Mother, princess, the two of you are becoming more and more like a pair of mother and daughter." One killed and didn't want to be the queen mother, and the other didn't want to be the queen, they all hated court life so much. ”

The concubine also joked: "Both of us are slaves." Fortunately, I didn't have such an emperor, otherwise I would have been killed with a rod. ”

When Lin Xiangyu heard this, she asked curiously: "Emperor Xuanzong's concubines are all calculated, and no son can be born in twenty years." Why was the mother concubine able to give birth to her husband? And even raised it? ”

The concubine really regarded Lin Xiangyu as her daughter, and she was not taboo about this issue, but explained it in detail: "I was originally a maid of the Han Palace, and I was still a slave at that time."

Later, the king of Han was fooled into rebellion by someone with a heart, and after the defeat, I was convicted and officially became a slave.

was seen by Xuanzong by chance, and then he was lucky. But the emperor just vented for a while, and after the catharsis, he threw me there, and it was not good to give me a name.

Later, when I gave birth to Qi Yu, I was thrown out of the palace and placed in the eunuch's house, raised as an outer room.

After giving birth to Qi Yu, the emperor didn't care about us, so Qi Yu didn't even have a nurse, he told you, it's just a joke.

Qi Yu had never lived in the palace at all, and when he was seven years old, before Xuanzong died, he summoned our mother and son and officially recognized our identity. Then Qi Yu was crowned king and lived in the palace. I made a concubine and lived in the palace. ”

Lin Xiangyu nodded thoughtfully: "In this way, husband, do you think that the mother concubine is very similar to the Empress Dowager Bo?" ”

Zhu Qiyu thought about it carefully, and couldn't help nodding again and again: "Well, don't say it, it's really similar." Empress Dowager Bo was originally the concubine of King Wei, and her mother was originally from the palace of the Han Dynasty.

Empress Dowager Bo later became a prisoner of the Han Dynasty and was accidentally fortunate by Taizu. The mother concubine was later convicted and entered the inner court to do hard labor, and met Xuanzong by chance.

Empress Dowager Bo was low-key and forbearing, did not fight or grab, gave birth to the prince smoothly, and successfully escaped the persecution of Empress Lu.

The mother concubine also gave birth to a child in a low-key manner and escaped the persecution of the Empress Dowager Sun.

Empress Lu fooled around and killed his son, which eventually led to the succession of Empress Dowager Bo's son to the throne and the achievement of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.

Empress Dowager Sun was also foolish, teaching her son to be indescribable, and finally led to the son of the concubine, I, the former King of Yu, inherited the unification. ”

When the concubine heard this, she smiled at Lin Xiangyu and said, "Don't patronize and tease me, don't you think you are a bit similar to Empress Dowager Bo's daughter-in-law, Empress Dou?" ”

Zhu Qiyu thought about it carefully, and nodded again and again on the side: "Mmmmmm, don't say it, it's true." When Emperor Xiaowen was still the acting king, he married the daughter of Empress Lu's family as a princess and gave birth to four sons.

When I was the king of Yu, I married the Wang family, a close confidant of the Empress Dowager Sun, and accepted a group of concubines arranged by the Empress Dowager Sun, and gave birth to a son.

Then before succeeding to the throne, he killed the princess of the Lu family and her son. And before I succeeded to the throne, I completely idle the previous princess, concubine, and son.

After that, the acting king set up Dou as the princess, and I set up Hao'er as the princess.

Dou's parents died early, his brothers were separated, and he became an orphan girl for a time. Feng'er also became an orphan girl for a time. “

Listening to the comparison of the emperor's narration, the concubine and the princess nodded again and again.

Soon Zhu Qiyu realized that something was wrong: "If you want to think about it according to your ideas, then wouldn't I be very similar to Emperor Xiaowen's experience?" “

Lin Xiangyu said with a smile: "Yes, Fujun and Emperor Xiaowen have a mother who has a similar experience, and a daughter-in-law who has a similar experience.

You yourself, like Emperor Xiaowen, were pushed to the throne from an unpopular prince at a time when the country was in danger.

Emperor Xiaowen was pushed up to be a puppet, and you were pushed up to take the blame. Both of you respect the Taoist art of governing the country, and both advocate thrift starting from the emperor himself, lightly paying for the meager endowment, and reducing the burden on the people.

And both of you are obsessed with the enemies of the northern steppes, and internally, you are both bent on cutting down the feudal domain.

Anyway, Fujun and Emperor Xiaowen have a lot of similarities. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said in appreciation: "My little princess is really smart, even Emperor Xiaowen has been working hard to manage and cut the domain, and ordinary people can't see this."

That's not all, you can even see that I'm bent on cutting the domain, but you really deserve to be my pillow person. ”

Lin Xiangyu hurriedly knelt on the carpet: "The slave family said the wrong thing, please punish the husband." ”

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "It's okay, get up." These tattered vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, a bunch of moths and scourges, should have cut them a long time ago. ”

The three of them continued to talk and laugh, and returned to the house happily, without saying anything all night.

……

Early the next morning, Zhu Qiyu came to the West Flower Hall early.

Although he did not convene the ministers to the early dynasty, Zhu Qiyu knew that the ministers would definitely come, so he leaned on the soft couch leisurely, drinking tea while waiting for the ministers.

Sure enough, after a short time, the ministers rushed in and saluted closely.

Zhu Qiyu asked with a serious face: "You all know what happened yesterday, right?" ”

The ministers hurriedly said yes.

Zhu Qiyu asked again: "Now that Empress Yisheng Taishang has become like this, she can neither manage the harem nor preside over various ceremonial activities. So what do you think should happen in the future? ”

The ministers looked at each other, and finally signaled with their eyes, and publicly tweeted Wang Wen to answer this sensitive and sharp question.

Wang Wen is so bitter, his heart said how do I know what to do, you all see what I am for.

Anyway, the others have made up their minds not to speak.

Wang Wen could only stubbornly reply: "Weichen thinks that ceremonial activities can be handed over to Empress Taishang to be fully responsible; The management of the harem is in charge of the eunuch in charge of the inner court. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction: "According to Wang Aiqing's words, in addition, Qian Xiong will be named the new marquis to comfort the heart of the Holy Empress Taishang." ”

In this way, the emperor and the ministers were satisfied. Sealing Empress Qian's nephew as a marquis can not only comfort and comfort Empress Qian, but also make the government and the opposition look decent, so as not to say that the emperor treats Empress Qian harshly.

Zhu Qiyu then bypassed this topic and issued an edict: "Jin Feng Shiheng is the Marquis of Wuqing, Sun Bo is Huai Ningbo, and Liu Yongcheng is Qingfengbo." The three of them were all commanders-in-chief, and they led their troops and horses south directly from Datong to join Wang Ji's army. I want to completely quell the Miao chaos in one fell swoop. ”
