Kunning Palace.

Mother and child sit opposite each other.

"Queen Mother, my father went to Nanchang a few days ago, and now King Ning has come to Beijing to report."

"When will your father return?" Empress Dowager Ji asked, her husband has been gone for more than half a year, and she is very worried.

"I don't know." Zhu Youzhu shook his head lightly and explained: "My father has left now, and I don't know where I went, but with that miracle doctor here, I want to come to my father and the emperor is fine." ”

Mrs. Ji showed disappointment, but she couldn't say anything, so she comforted her: "Don't be stressed, your father will definitely come back, he just relaxes." ”

"I understand." Zhu Youzhu nodded with a wry smile, paused, and said, "Queen Mother, my son wants to tell you something." ”

"What else can't we mother and son say? Let's put it bluntly. Empress Dowager Ji said with a smile.

"My son wants to ......," Zhu Youzhu said, "I want to wait for my father to come back, return the throne to him, and be the crown prince again." ”

Empress Dowager Ji's smile froze, her eyebrows furrowed, and she said strangely: "Why do you have such an idea?" ”

"It's hard to be an emperor!" Zhu Youzhu sighed, "My ability is not enough, I want to experience it again." ”

Empress Dowager Ji pondered for a long time and said: "If your father has the idea of regaining the throne, you should return to the throne, but if not, you can't return it, and you can't mention it." ”

"In case my father is inconvenient to say it clearly, I won't mention ......"

"Your father is not a twisted person, if he wants to, he will say it directly, if he doesn't want to, he won't accept it if you return to the throne, and he will also think that you are afraid of hardship and tiredness." Empress Dowager Ji looked serious, "Your father is the Lord of the British, and he hopes that you can be like him, you know?" ”

"......"

"The more you're afraid of not doing well, the more you're going to be bad." Empress Dowager Ji interrupted him and said: "Calm down, you should go up to the court, you should review and review and review, no one can be a good emperor as soon as you come up, don't worry, don't put too much pressure on yourself." ”

After a pause, "The matter of returning to the throne must not be mentioned, unless it is your father who clearly expresses the will of the emperor, remember!" ”

"Okay." Zhu Youzhu sighed and said, "The queen mother has been fine recently, and there have been more sparse performances in various places recently, and I care about the queen mother ......."

"Okay, don't worry about the queen mother." Empress Dowager Ji advised, "You should also be close to the Empress Dowager, she is the main family, although your father is ...... I love her a little less, but I have to rank in front of me, the Queen Mother, and the rules can't be messed up, you know? ”

"I understand." Zhu Youzhu nodded.

Empress Dowager Ji sighed: "She is a hard-working person, compared to it, the queen mother is much luckier, you can be the prince and the emperor, it depends more on luck, so ah, you must always maintain a sense of awe, don't be blind and arrogant." ”

Zhu Youzhu smiled and said, "Queen Mother, is my son that kind of arrogant person?" ”

"You can't feel inferior." Empress Dowager Ji added, "You are the emperor, a hundred officials, and the backbone of all the people in the world, you have to be calm, you can't panic in case of trouble, you have to panic, and you will be even more panicked below." ”

"Remember."

"Well, you have to have confidence in yourself...... Empress Dowager Ji encouraged her son, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and she can only say some words of encouragement to calm her son's heart.

Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, she knows that her son is not as good as her husband, but there are times and things that often have no choice.

As a mother, she can only help so much, and she has to rely on her son himself more.

The relationship between the emperor and the queen mother of this session is excellent, far beyond Chenghua, orthodoxy, and even Xuande.

Fortunately, Ji's personality is quiet and indifferent, not perverse, and not in love with power, otherwise, this is really not a good thing.

…

The next day, the morning dynasty.

After the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, Wan An was the first to jump out, first singing praises to Zhu Youzhang, and then the conversation changed and launched a long discussion on the issue of the emperor's heir......

Finally, it ends with the sentence 'Please ask the emperor to accept a concubine'.

The idea was what he thought, and he couldn't give up the credit.

Liubu Jiuqing didn't rob him, their purpose was just to make the emperor angry, and that was it.

Wan An said that, they immediately seconded the proposal and asked one after another.

Zhu Youzhu didn't expect that this group of people would even have to take care of whether they could accept a concubine or not, and they couldn't help but be angry:

"Less than a year after I ascended the throne, do I want to do a lot of pleasure?!"

"The emperor's words are wrong, how can it be a pleasure to pass on the lineage?" Wan An said seriously.

The officials also agreed.

In their opinion, this is the emperor's face, and the concubine must have a valid reason, right?

Zhu Youzhu was really angry, and snorted: "Needless to say, I won't accept a concubine." ”

The hundred officials said secretly in their hearts: The emperor wants to save face and lining, and he can do it, as long as he can please him.

"It's been nearly a year since the emperor's wedding, but no heirs have been born, which is not conducive to the country!" Wan An still acts as a pioneer, and he is professional in terms of sycophancy, "Passing on the ancestry and continuing the ancestral incense is filial piety." ”

This step, you can say whether it is comfortable or not...... Wan An was secretly complacent.

Baiguan couldn't help but have a touch of admiration, and it has to be a human being, but he is a good hand.

They immediately followed up.

In the minds of the ministers, the emperor will hesitate at most, and then he will get off the donkey.

Just because ...... This staircase is so beautiful.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Youzhu was furious and said hatefully: "Why, are you saying that my queen can't give birth to an heir?" ”

"Don't dare!" All the officials pleaded guilty.

But I was thinking in my heart: It's almost done, why are you still wearing it, Your Majesty?

"Alright, let's get even." Zhu Youzhu sighed and said in a deep voice: "Don't accept the concubine, it's my private matter, don't mention this matter again!" ”

Yo Yo Yo, what about pretending?

Wan An took a deep breath and said solemnly: "The royal family is selfless, and it is a major matter related to the emperor's heir, please think twice." ”

"Please think twice, ...... emperor!"

The ministers knelt on the ground.

Zhu Youzhu was furious, even angrier than yesterday, this group of people is really ...... Kick your nose in the face!

"Let's get down to business!" Zhu Youzhu tried his best to restrain his anger, "State affairs are more important. ”

"The imperial heir is a political affair, it is a state affair!" Wan An said respectfully, "I also ask the emperor to focus on the country's society and the incense of the clan." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister also seconded the proposal."

…

Fengtian Hall was noisy, and Zhu Youzhang's chest rose and fell more and more violently......

"Wan'an !!"

Wan An shuddered, and said, "The minister is here!" ”

"You, you ......" Zhu Youjiao's fat face turned red, and he trembled for a long time, but he couldn't speak.

Seeing that the emperor's face was as red as blood, the eunuch on the station was shocked, and he couldn't care about the rules, so he hurriedly supported him and said sharply: "The emperor's dragon body violates the harmony and disperses the dynasty!" ”

After saying that, he helped the emperor down the jade steps and walked away......

The hundred officials looked at each other, and immediately, they all looked at Wan An.

Wan An looked righteous and said: "The imperial heir is a major event of the country, and it is also the foundation of the country. ”

"Yes, we're going to fight for it."

"Let's go to kneel at the palace gate, and if the emperor doesn't agree, we won't get up."

A group of people came out of the Fengtian Temple and ran to the noon gate to kneel.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this step is enough, right? Don't think about returning to your position...... The ministers knelt in front of the palace gate, thinking secretly.

This wave, their posture is too low.

Zhu Youzhu was dizzy with anger, and it wasn't until he returned to the Qianqing Palace that he came to his senses for a few minutes, he raised his hand tremblingly, and said tremblingly:

"Message: Wan'an will only slander and slander, bend to welcome, there is no talent of a scholar, let alone the virtue of a scholar, immediately return to his hometown for the elderly...... No delays! ”

"Yes, slaves and maids obey the order, Your Majesty, you can calm your anger, the dragon body is important......"

"Don't be verbose, go, go!!"

"Yes, yes, slave and maid will go." The eunuch on duty was busy.

At this time, Empress Zhang came from next door, and when she saw her husband like this, she immediately stepped forward nervously and said with concern:

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, those people are really too deceitful." Zhu Youzhu shook his head slowly, but he was still angry.

"The emperor is angry, why should he be like them?" Zhang stroked his chest and said distressedly: "Why are you angry with yourself." ”

"They...... Alas! Zhu Youzhu said angrily, "They insinuated that you could not give birth to the emperor's heir, so that I could accept concubines, and said that it was for filial piety and for the sake of the Ming Dynasty...... Irritating! ”

"Huh?" Zhang was stunned at first, then shocked, and then angry, "How can they say that, concubine ......?"

As he spoke, tears fell, and he said aggrievedly: "It's all the concubines who are not good, it's the concubines who are not angry......"

"Don't cry, don't cry." Zhu Youzhu hurriedly coaxed, "How can I listen to them, we are still young, how can we have no heirs." ”

"Uh-huh." Zhang cried and nodded, and said tentatively: "If the emperor wants to take a concubine, the concubine will not say anything." ”

She really can't say anything, even though she's the queen.

Don't say that this is royal, even if it is an ordinary family, the wife has no heirs, and he can't stop his husband from taking a concubine.

Throughout the ages, how could an emperor have only one woman?

Zhang also understands that don't look at the husband to say yes at this time, but it is indispensable to accept a concubine, but it is of course best to come later on this day.

She is just a woman who is not yet twenty years old, how can she not be repulsed.

Speaking of which, the emperor's husband is very fond of her, since her husband ascended the throne, she moved to the Qianqing Palace to live, and stayed together all night, and the favor has not been broken.

But it's been almost a year, and my stomach is stunned and there is no reaction, indeed...... Some can't make sense.

It seems that we have to find a doctor......

Noon Gate.

The ministers are still kneeling at the palace gate, with all the holy virtues, so that the emperor has both the lining and the face bright.

It's really hard for them on a hot day.

In the past, kneeling at the palace gate was to resist, but now kneeling at the palace gate is to curry favor, no way, who let the new emperor be so popular?

Suddenly, the eunuch on duty in the early dynasty, with his chest and face held high, walked quickly, looking like he was about to convey the holy decree.

The ministers' eyes lit up, and the emperor finally came down the steps.

Wan An was even more excited, the new emperor didn't wait to see him for a day or two, how could he not know?

However, from now on, everything is different.
