Li Wei saw that Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to do, so he retired, and Zhu Yuanzhang also saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, and when he couldn't use him, he wished he would get out of it early.

After sending Li Wei away, Zhu Yuanzhang dealt with some government affairs again, and only after it was very late did he pack up the backpack that belonged to him, got up and left the Qianqing Palace, and went to the harem.

In fact, the Qianqing Palace is the emperor's bedroom, and it originally belonged to the category of the harem, but this is only the emperor's own residence, and there is no concubine here, and Zhu Yuanzhang often deals with government affairs here and summons courtiers, so the Qianqing Palace is more like a vestibule, and the concubines of the harem are generally not allowed to come here.

If the emperor wants to live by himself, he will live in the Qianqing Palace, and if he wants to find a concubine, he will go to the harem.

Kunning Palace, located directly behind the Qianqing Palace, is the main palace of the harem and the residence of the queen.

At this time, Queen Ma was sorting out a bunch of notes from Zhu Yuanzhang and putting them away in different categories.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang kept saying that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, in fact, he was too busy to help him deal with some affairs, like these small notes, which were all things that Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that needed to be dealt with, and he handed them over to Queen Ma, and if he forgot Queen Ma, he would remind him that there was something he hadn't done yet.

"Girl, we're back, hey, hey, hey, hey......"

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted loudly and walked in shyly.

As soon as he arrived in front of Queen Ma, he seemed to be a different person, and his majesty was gone.

Queen Ma glanced at him, and said angrily: "It's such a big person, pay attention to your image." ”

"Hey, hey, hey, there's no outsider here, what image do we want."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "Sister, don't be busy, let's get some magical treasures today, let's bring them over for you to see." ”

Speaking of which, Queen Ma noticed that Zhu Yuanzhang was carrying a black package in his hand, since he knew the magic of Li Wei's things, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to keep this bag himself, and no one was allowed to touch it, except for Queen Ma.

"What baby?"

Queen Ma asked cooperatively, in fact, she was not curious, but her husband said so, so she naturally wanted to cooperate to give some face.

"Hehe, don't believe it, it's really a baby."

Zhu Yuanzhang said and sat down in front of Queen Ma, put down his backpack, and then instructed the little palace maid who was waiting on the side: "Xiaohong, go get a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and then get a pot of hot water." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Xiaohong saluted, and then went to get something.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his backpack and took out Li Wei's remaining pack of instant noodles from it, this is the last pack, Li Wei usually eats instant noodles when he is too lazy to move when he works in the factory, so he only put two packs in the bag, but there are only two packs, at this time this is the last pack of instant noodles in the Ming Dynasty!

However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't feel distressed at all, although he also liked to eat it, but he wanted to share this good thing with Queen Ma, so in the Qianqing Palace, he would rather eat the half bowl left by Li Wei than open the bag, but brought it back to Queen Ma.

There is no fire in the palace at night, this is an order given by Zhu Yuanzhang, the reason is because he is afraid of water, that is, he is afraid of fire.

Moreover, the ancients did not have three meals a day like modern people, and it was very good for ordinary people to eat two full meals.

Although the palace is full of nobles, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma are both diligent and thrifty people, and those concubines can only follow the diligence and thrift, and at most eat some tea and snacks at night.

After a while, Xiaohong brought bowls and chopsticks and hot water, Zhu Yuanzhang took it, and then asked her to retreat.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened the packaging bag like a treasure, followed Li Wei's example of putting the dough cake, putting the material bag, then heating the water, then covering it, and pressing the chopsticks.

"Hey, hey, okay, you can eat it after soaking for a while, girl, don't look at this thing as simple to make, but it's really delicious, you'll know if you taste it in a while."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"Hmm." Queen Ma hmmed together and continued to be busy with herself.

"Are you going to do something to Hu Weiyong?"

Queen Ma asked suddenly.

Zhu Yuanzhang put away his smile and said, "Yes, we originally wanted to wait, but I didn't expect something to happen, so we can only do it now." ”

"Hu Weiyong is arrogant and domineering, he should have been punished a long time ago, and I don't know what you're waiting for."

Although Queen Ma has a good heart, she has nothing to sympathize with this kind of treacherous person.

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment and said: "We didn't want to tell you so early, but now that our layout has been completed and is about to be implemented, it's nothing to tell you, we want to take the opportunity to get rid of Hu Weiyong and abolish the prime minister system!" ”

"What? You want to abolish the prime ministership? I'm afraid that's not right, right? Without the prime minister, what should be done with the government affairs of the imperial court? ”

Queen Ma exclaimed.

"Isn't there still us? Let's see it, these people don't have a good thing, they say that they are loyal and patriotic, but in private they are actually selfish villains, once they are given power, they will benefit themselves, and they will not take us and the people of Daming to heart at all! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face rose and he said angrily.

"Can you get busy then?" Queen Ma said worriedly.

"It's okay, as long as we can stabilize the Daming country and let the people live a good life, it's nothing if we are tired and tired!"

Before he became the emperor, he always felt that it was Meng Yuan who caused him to not be able to eat, his father, mother and brother were starving to death, as long as Meng Yuan was overthrown, the people of the Ming Dynasty would be able to live a good life.

But after being the emperor for more than ten years, he realized that the real tyrannical yuan was not the Mengyuan court, but these corrupt officials, profiteers and inferior gentry!

Meng Yuan implemented a package tax system, these barbarians seized the world but did not know how to govern, so in order to save trouble, they directly sold the tax rights to those rich merchants and gentry, they did not have to care about anything and directly got a large amount of taxes, but these taxes were fixed.

And it is the profiteers and gentry who really collect taxes directly from the common people, who buy the right to collect taxes with large sums of money, and then collude with corrupt officials and corrupt officials to loot the common people with all their might, and set up all kinds of clever names, so that the common people cannot even eat.

The land of the Central Plains, the land is vast and rich, the relative Mengyuan population is much smaller, if it is only the aristocratic class of the Mengyuan court, even if they are arrogant and lascivious, the common people can afford to live a hard life, but these corrupt officials and corrupt officials and profiteers and inferior gentry will not work, their families are huge, there are many of them, and they are greedy!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew Meng Yuan, the real tyrannical yuan still exists, if he doesn't clean up this official, businessman and gentry, then his Daming will also become a tyrant, and sooner or later he will follow in the footsteps of Qianyuan!

Meng Yuan's group of nobles are stupid, he Zhu Yuanzhang is not stupid, he will not give these corrupt officials, corrupt officials, profiteers, and inferior gentry a black pot!

Queen Ma saw that he was resolute, so she stopped persuading, but fortunately, Biao'er also grew up and could help a lot.

The two chatted for a while, and the instant noodles were already soaked.

"Girl, the noodles are ready, try them."

Zhu Yuanzhang happily opened the bag and pushed the bowl of instant noodles in front of Queen Ma.

The tempting aroma spread, and Queen Ma lowered her head in surprise and sniffed: "Well, it smells really good." ”

"Hey, of course, try it!" Zhu Yuanzhang handed her the chopsticks.

Queen Ma took the chopsticks and tasted them, the spicy and fragrant taste stimulated her taste buds and made her appetite expedient.

After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, Queen Ma, as the queen, did not live that kind of life of fine clothes and food.

It's not that I can't, but I don't want to.

She has always been diligent and thrifty, and even cultivated a piece of land in the Imperial Garden to grow her own vegetables.

Zhu Yuanzhang will often eat small stoves, and other concubines will secretly ask their subordinates to cook something delicious. But Queen Ma didn't, she has always insisted on being diligent and thrifty.

This may also be the reason why she has not been in good health.

Although the delicacy was good, Queen Ma was not greedy, and after eating a small half bowl, she pushed it back to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"I've had refreshments before, I'm full, you can eat the rest."

"Okay, then we won't be polite to you, girl."

Zhu Yuanzhang was really polite when he said it, and he cleaned up the half bowl of noodles left by Queen Ma, and he didn't let go of the noodle soup.
