Chapter 34: A generation, a generation's thoughts

Zhu Jian took a deep breath and said lightly: "Queen Mother, you don't understand." ”

Empress Dowager Zhou sneered: "Then you should tell me, why doesn't this palace understand?" ”

"Do you know what love is?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Empress Dowager Zhou broke the defense, and she was snubbed in the past, and she couldn't see this kind of thing the most, especially for an older woman like Wan Zhen'er.

"You are the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you don't think about Sheji Limin, you think about love all day long, is this what an emperor should do?"

Zhu Jianshen said indifferently, "The queen mother is teaching me to be the emperor?" ”

"The ...... of the palace" Empress Dowager Zhou was stunned, she really couldn't answer this, and it has always been taboo for the emperor to interfere in politics in the harem.

It's about imperial power, and neither can my mother!

She was beaten last time, but after a long time, she gradually didn't care so much, and now that her son said such things again, she couldn't help but be angry and sad.

I was not treated well when I was a concubine before, but now I am the queen mother...... Still.

Let him be...... Empress Dowager Zhou got up silently and said lonely: "The emperor is wise and martial, so naturally he can't use this palace to teach." ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

"The queen walks slowly." Zhu Jianshen's tone was light.

When Empress Dowager Zhou walked away, he looked at Queen Wang.

"Your Majesty, the concubine didn't say anything." Queen Wang hurriedly explained that the fate of her predecessor was vivid, and she didn't want to follow in his footsteps.

The emperor's husband is not easy to mess with, and after the abolition, it is called a clean and neat!

"I understand." Zhu Jianshen smiled, "Let's go, accompany me for a while." ”

"Huh?" Queen Wang was stunned for a moment, and then she was ecstatic in her heart, she hurriedly moved and accompanied Zhu Jianshen's side, tame and well-behaved.

Since she was canonized as the queen, it is the first time that the emperor's husband has been so close to her.

It's sad to say, when she was a concubine, she was fortunate to be there a few times, but when she became a queen, she kept watch for the empty room every night.

What's even more tragic is that she doesn't know where she provokes the emperor's husband.

The two walked one after the other, Zhu Jianshen didn't speak, and Queen Wang didn't dare to speak easily, but the opportunity was rare, so she decided to take a risk and try it.

She was ashamed to take Zhu Jianshen's hand.

Zhu Jianshen was stunned, he didn't refuse, but he didn't take the initiative.

Queen Wang was a little lost, but she still held it, and said softly: "Your Majesty... But did the concubine do something wrong? ”

"No, you're fine." Zhu Jianshen said.

"Then why is the emperor... Why don't you ignore the concubines? Queen Wang lowered her head and asked, slightly aggrieved.

It's not your problem, it's your family's problem...... Zhu Jianshen smiled: "I have just ascended to the throne, I have too many things to be busy, I don't want to, and I snubbed the queen." ”

"Hmm... The emperor also has to take care of the dragon's body, and don't stay up late from time to time. The queen nodded skillfully.

Zhu Jianshen nodded: "Well, I will pay attention." ”

"......" Queen Wang was sentimental.

Zhu Jianshen finally felt that he couldn't go, so he took her by the hand and said something considerate.

It's not that he hates Queen Wang, it's just that he was scared of Wu Jun's incident last time, and he was afraid of doing it again.

Zhu Jianshen was only eighteen years old in the end, and his family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs suddenly pressed all on him, and he was under a lot of pressure.

Hundreds of officials are troubled, the queen mother is troublesome, and his daughter-in-law's mother's family routines him...... Zhu Jian was exhausted, and at the same time, he was also sensitive.

In this palace, there is only the sister Zhen'er who took care of him growing up, he can fully trust, and other ...... It's all up for debate.

Even if it's a mother!

To be an emperor... It's hard...... The corners of Zhu Jianshen's mouth flashed with bitterness.

Mid-Autumn Night.

The moon rises early.

Li Qing raised his glass to invite Mingyue, bowed his head and thought about the old man......

The night breeze is breezy, full of autumn coolness, but Li Qing has no enjoyment thoughts, under the bright moonlight, he drinks by himself, lonely and sad.

Every festive season, I miss my relatives, but on this day of reunion, there is no one around me.

He... Still not used to it.

In fact, he never got used to it.

Li Qing was depressed, borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and finally scolded the thief.

was scolding, the door was suddenly knocked, and surprise flashed in Li Qing's eyes: "Who?" ”

"Godfather, it's a child."

"Li Hong......" Li Qing's heart warmed, he stepped forward to open the door, and saw that he was the only one, and he couldn't help but sink in his heart, "Something happened in Jinling?" ”

"No, it's all good." Li Hong said with a smile, "Thinking that my godfather is alone in Beijing, I want to accompany you." ”

Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile: "Why didn't that little girl follow you this time?" ”

"It's not that person, Sister Wanqing originally wanted to come, he had to stop it, and said that the girl is too old, you have to know how to avoid it......" Li Hong's face was full of resentment.

Li Qing said with a smile: "You really have to avoid it, what are you anxious about." ”

There was a pause, "But... It's not the right time for you to come, I'm going to be busy in a few days. ”

"It's okay, the child cooks for his godfather at home, so you won't be busy."

Li Qing shook his head slightly: "I'm going to go far away." ”

"Far away?" Li Hong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can the child go with him?" ”

"This ......," Li Qing frowned, "come in and say." ”

Li Hong led the horse, walked into the small courtyard and tied it up, and then walked to Li Qing and sat down, "Godfather is busy with official business, right?" ”

"Hmm." Li Qing asked, "Do you want to take a career in office?" ”

The godson is an adult and has to help him plan for the future.

Li Hong thought for a while and asked rhetorically: "Does the godfather want his child to go on a career path?" ”

"What about you?" Li Qing rolled his eyes.

"Child...... Think. Li Hong sneered, "A manly man, who doesn't want to be vigorous?" ”

Seeing that his godfather frowned, Li Hong asked again: "Godfather, what do you think?" ”

"Actually... I don't want you to take this path and inherit the Marquis of Yongqing well, okay? Li Qingdao said, "The road to official career is not so easy to walk. ”

"The temple is dangerous, and the child knows it, but the godfather once said...... The ultimate romance of men is the power of the temple and the strategizing of the battlefield. Li Hong's face was full of yearning.

Li Qing was speechless: "I just said it casually, you are still serious, you are still thinking about scheming at a young age...... I really don't know what to say. ”

"If my godfather doesn't want to, then I won't take this path." Li Hong said.

Li Qing smiled: "I'm afraid that you will not be willing to do so for the rest of your life." β€Γ³Ξ ΡŠ.oяG

"My godfather doesn't want me to go on a career path, it must be for my good." Li Hong said, "I listen to my godfather, and you won't harm me." ”

"But you still think in your heart, you will be unwilling!" Li Qing sighed, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, come with me in a few days, and you will make a choice when you come back." ”

Li Hong was thrilled: "This ...... May I? ”

"I'll just tell the emperor, after you are a nobleman, it is not too much to go out to see the world." Li Qing nodded, "You are also grown up now, you can make your own decisions, if you really want to take the career path, your godfather will not stop you." ”

"Really?" Li Hong was pleasantly surprised.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You like being an official so much? ”

"Hey...... Riding horses and galloping, killing enemies on the battlefield, who doesn't want to? "Li Hong just won the championship this year, and it is the time of high spirits.

After Xungui, he took the road of military generals, Li Hong listened to the Three Kingdoms since he was a child, and he had a strong interest in the battlefield and longed for it.

And with the endorsement of his godfather, his career will be much better.

"The battlefield is not what is described in the book, the glory you see is forged with countless blood, there is no romance, only blood and cruelty." Li Qing said quietly, "If you die on the battlefield, your graceful sister will be widowed." ”

Li Hong: "......"

"Godfather, I still want to try." Li Hong said seriously.

"Well, here's your chance." Li Qing sighed, "If you don't try, you won't be reconciled." ”

"Thank you godfather." Li Hong was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain this time.

Li Qing shook his head and smiled: "Okay, accompany me for two drinks." ”

"Hey, okay."

Li Qing sighed secretly: I still hope you can be a free marquis.

This is his godson, and after the deceased, Li Qing does not ask him to make contributions, but only asks him to live a happy life.

However, there is nothing wrong with a generation having a generation's thoughts, and Li Hong does not have to live a mediocre life.

Li Qing didn't want to impose his will on Li Hong, so that he would be unwilling to live a lifetime.

……

The next day, Li Qing entered the palace and told Zhu Jianshen about it.

Zhu Jianshen promised that he could tie Li Qing's godson to the court deeply, of course he was willing.

"I am employing people, and when I come back from this training, I will give him a military attachΓ©."

"It's not necessary, maybe when he comes back, he won't want to be an official." Li Qing shook his head lightly and asked, "Is there a letter from Shi Heng?" ”

"Well, now the army is stationed." Zhu Jianshen chuckled and said, "About seven days later, Shi Heng will return with all the tribal leaders, and at that time, you will have to get busy." ”

Li Qing bowed his head slightly and said, "It's no problem, but I need funds." ”

"How much do you want?"

"Two million taels." Li Qingdao said, "Refund more and make up less." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's not safe to carry that much silver in one go, so let's take a million first, and then I'll let someone send it. Zhu Jianshen said, "Refund more and make up less." ”

Li Qing said with a smile: "Whatever you want, but the construction of the Hetao is very important this time, if you get it done, the grassland tribes who will later take refuge in the Ming Dynasty can be arranged there;

There is abundant water and grass, in addition to farming, it is a natural pasture, which can be used as a horse farm of the Ming Dynasty, don't worry about money. ”

"Ang, don't worry, I know it." Zhu Jianshen nodded, "No matter how poor I am, I won't pick on such a big thing, but... If you can save unnecessary expenses, it is better to save a little, the national treasury is really not rich. ”

"Well, don't worry."

"By the way, I have something to tell you." Zhu Jianshen said, "Take Zhu Yong with you when you go, and share half of the credit when you come back, I want to reuse this person." ”

Li Qing didn't refuse, but said, "You can take him there, but I have to inspect him." ”

"It's okay, then you can check for me again." Zhu Jianshen asked, "Your godson, what kind of official do you want to ask him for?" ”

Li Qing smiled: "Let's talk about it then, in fact, I don't want him to go on a career path." ”

"Your thinking is not right, I have to criticize you twice." Zhu Jianshen can be regarded as caught, "What's wrong with being loyal to the country?" Daming gave you the title of marquis, it is an incentive, not to let you lie flat with a long-term meal ticket, are you worthy of Daming......"

Balabala......
