Chapter 638: Clear Thoughts
The crown prince canonized, the temple, the palace family banquet, the coronation ceremony...... Everything is going in an orderly manner.
As for the courtiers, the queen who had been the mother of the world for more than ten years has been deposed, and the eldest prince and the second prince, who were once regarded as the most powerful contenders in the East Palace, were sent out of Beijing, but the East Palace, which has been ownerless for many years, suddenly has a master, so what else can be said? Supporting the eldest prince in order to support the eldest prince? Eat and hold on, right?
If there is such a conscientious die-hard faction, as early as when the emperor was abolished, someone would go to Fuque to give advice to the death, and will wait until this time to jump out?
As a result, the people enjoyed the food, clothing, and wine that the emperor rewarded to the elderly over 70 years old because of the crown prince's canonization, as well as the work opportunities for the poor that the imperial court took out separately. As for the officialdom, although there is no rule that the East Palace will reward the ministers and everyone be promoted, there are still corresponding awards, especially the East Palace officials, who have rewarded the imperial wine, clothing, and food.
And the queen mother rewarded the concubines and princesses, and Concubine Yu and Concubine He presided over the awards to the inner servants and palace people, which was regarded as a layer of skin from the emperor's inner treasury, and there was no intention of saving money for the Son of Heaven at all. In this regard, the wealthy emperor waved his sleeves and didn't care at all, on the contrary, he was happy in his heart as soon as he heard about the situation in the Qingning Palace, and immediately made amends.
At this moment, Zhu Ying once again stood in the inner treasury that was surrounded by tall cabinets on all sides, occupying a large part of the outer imperial city, just as she had often been brought into this place before. It's just that the person who has always accompanied her in is Chu Kuan, but today it was replaced by Lu Chan.
And Lu Chan had only heard Chu Kuan mention the emperor's special encounter with Zhu Ying in the past, and he was present in person today, so he couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly. He was envious and amazed in his heart, and when he saw Zhu Ying looking around calmly, he said cautiously: "The emperor said that as long as the eldest lady likes something, as long as she can take it out at one time, just take it away." Or do you want to read the brochure first? ”
"It's been a long time, I'll take a look first."
Zhu Ying unceremoniously went to a cabinet against the wall, opened a drawer in the middle, and saw that the inside was divided into a grid with a wooden lattice, and there was a soft silk underneath.
At first glance, all the lattices were full, but she remembered that when she came here to see them, the jade ornaments in this drawer had clearly changed, and some large items were gone. And she didn't remember who the emperor had generously rewarded with these things, so as before, some tributes that were too long had already been disposed of.
Of course, the so-called treatment is not throwing, even if the emperor wants to be so ruined that he will send things to save space in the inner library, he will be scolded to death by the queen mother, but he is afraid that he will cross the ocean, or through other channels, from a luxury that cannot be eaten or worn and cannot be used to money, or become something else.
When she was very young, the Emperor said the words when he led her in, although the Emperor thought she had forgotten, but in fact she always remembered: "Whether the king is rich and the country is poor, or the king is rich and the people are poor, or the king is poor and the country is rich, and the king is poor and the people are rich, all are the source of trouble!" Only when the monarch is rich and the country is rich, and the country is rich and the people are rich, this is the foundation for the long-term peace and stability of the world. ”
"So, Xiao Yingying, you have to remember that this room full of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, all of them just look good, but in fact, they have no actual value! It's like the rich family exchanging a little money for gold and silver, or even stringing copper coins and putting them in the cellar, that's what the most short-sighted people do! Wealth is like living water, only when it is allowed to flow, then it has corresponding value! ”
Pull open the drawers one by one, look at the jade ornaments, admire the pearls, and play with agate...... Zhu Ying did whatever she wanted as if she was in her own home, and Lu Chan, who followed behind, at first only thought that Zhu Ying liked gorgeous clothes and decorations as rumored outside, so he was thinking about taking more things, but gradually he felt that something was wrong.
Because Zhu Ying seemed to be taking stock of her own warehouse, turning the switch on and off, but she didn't take anything away.
It wasn't until this kind of wandering lasted for almost two quarters of an hour that he saw that Zhu Ying had taken out a string of beads from a drawer and hung them directly on his wrist. He glanced at it quietly, but saw that it was a string of agate beads, and then heard Zhu Ying's self-talk: "Although my mother is no longer in the Buddhist temple, she is used to reciting the scriptures several times a day, and it is just right for her." ”
picked a piece of Wenyu for Mrs. Tai, Zhu Jing and Zhu Tingfang, Zhu Er, father and son, each picked three gadgets that were not big and could be worn with them, chose a bracelet for herself, and a fan pendant for Zhang Shou, Zhu Ying turned around and walked out of the inner library with satisfaction. Lu Chan, who followed behind, urgently estimated the value of these things, and finally came to a conclusion.
It's worth a lot, but the emperor definitely doesn't think it's enough!
Sure enough, when Zhu Ying returned to the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, and thanked her after showing her things generously, the emperor quipped as if it were true and false: "You refuse to wear the crown clothes, and you see things like this, Yingying, do you want to draw a clear line between Chengxin and me?" ”
"I'm just a trickle, so that the emperor will think of me first when he has good things in the future."
Zhu Ying smiled generously, and then said in a natural tone: "I spoke for the emperor in Qingning Palace before, not because of favoritism, but because I really thought so. And I used to be neither big nor small in front of the emperor and the queen mother, also because the emperor and the queen mother were the same as my grandmother and father to me. In that case, why did the emperor bother to see me? ”
"The emperor is the only emperor, and I am also the unique Zhu Ying."
Lu Chan, who personally sent Zhu Ying back from the inner library, stood by the door, and when he heard this conversation inside, he remembered Chu Kuan's judgment of the emperor and Zhu Ying, and couldn't help but fall into a trance. Chu Kuan said that a maverick emperor likes mavericks.
Therefore, his strengths are such as Liu Zhiyuan, there are responsibilities such as Wang Jie, Wu Gelao who is good at understanding and insisting on being a sound worm, Concubine Yu, who is peerless and independent, Zhu Jing who dares to bet on himself and his son, Zhu Tingfang, who can rely on his family background but wants to fight hard, and Zhang Shou, who is dedicated to promoting arithmetic...... All these people are like Zhu Ying, who is more proud than the peacock, and the emperor is quite appreciative.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to hear the emperor's voice coming from inside: "Well, I can't talk about you!" originally wanted to crown you as a princess and let you marry beautifully, but now it seems that Yingying you don't need it, right? ”
"Of course I don't need the princess's false name. But if the emperor can do me a favor, then I am grateful. Without waiting for the emperor to agree, Zhu Ying immediately added, "I grabbed the list of concubines from the celebrant and begged the emperor to allow these girls to marry into a good family." ”
This time, the emperor couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then his face sank and said, "You mean ......"
"Whether it is a beauty pageant in the palace or a princess choosing a concubine, the list of candidates submitted through the audition has attracted a lot of attention, but the premise is that the girls who are eliminated after the re-election have to be. However, all the way to the final election, those who entered the eyes of the nobles in the palace, but finally failed for various reasons, often can only live alone. ”
"Some people say that they are raising their own worth, or they have seen the wealth in the palace, so they refuse to marry ordinary people, but if you want me to say, it is better to say that their families are worried that they will make the nobles in the palace blame after they marry, so they force them to die alone!"
"This kind of unwritten vulgarity, because the grandfather of the first emperor Ruizong didn't bother to choose the harem at all, and so did you, the emperor, so it has finally stopped all these years, but this time the selection of concubines came to an abrupt end, and no one will inevitably figure out what to expect!"
This kind of thing is what Miss Zhu dares to say!
Lu Chan gasped again, and then found that there was an indescribable silence for the time being, he thought that the emperor had not even let the eldest prince and the second prince get married, so he sent people out of Beijing first, and he was suddenly a little unsure of the emperor's true attitude. I don't know how long it took for him to finally hear the emperor's voice.
"Do you mean that you want me to pick a good family for these girls?"
"If the emperor is optimistic about leaving it to the crown prince and the four princes, then say another, I will go and see the others one by one. If I really don't want to get married, but I am a girl with good morals and a sense of poetry and books, then I will recruit people on behalf of Yongping, a female school chief. And if it's not that you don't want to get married, it's very simple. ”
"If there is a maverick beauty among them, let her and Zhang Chen look at each other, and then let Zhang Chen ask for a kiss! As long as it becomes this one, the prince of the Duke of Qin dares to ask for marriage, and the other girls' families are afraid that they will immediately be stepped on by the people who ask for marriage! ”
The emperor has always known that Zhu Ying's thinking is different from most people, and what else can he say when he really witnesses this again? So, the knot is appreciated, and this has become the emperor's action at this time!
Why didn't he choose one of the eldest prince and the second prince among those girls who were not from high backgrounds, and then let people accompany his two sons on the road out of Beijing?
Because he felt that if he chose a gentle and virtuous princess, he would be willing to silently endure the treatment of being kicked out of the capital by his father-in-law as soon as he got married, because the celebrant was very sure that he could choose the kind of girl who had been taught by his parents to abide by women's morals since he was a child, but he knew very well what kind of people his two sons were.
These two brothers, who only value their background and power, will never cherish such a wife, let alone respect it! That being the case, instead of causing resentment or even causing a tragedy, he might as well let go of this matter first!
"Very good, that's it, Yingying, you let it go, I approve of this matter!" Three years later, if the two of them have a little bit of repentance, it will not be too late to get married again! He can pick a good pick in three years to see if there is a girl with a strong personality who is more domineering than Zhu Ying...... Wait, it seems to be true!
The emperor not only nodded, but then suddenly said thoughtfully, "If you talk about a stunning beauty, I do remember that the granddaughter of the late Honglu Shaoqing Ye Cheng'an in Tongzhou was born with a beautiful and frail childhood, so the elders invited a well-known female dart master from the Cangzhou Dart Bureau to teach her martial arts because of the doctor's words. ”
"As a result, the girl's body is well, but her martial arts are also extraordinary, and I saw the background experience presented by the celebrant supervisor, and I once planned to summon her into the palace and let you try to fight her. As a result, she only entered the re-election and one thing happened, a certain passer-by who was obsessed with lust rarely saw her passing by in a car, and was lured by beauty, and took a group of wealthy slaves to hijack the car halfway, plotting against her. ”
"In the end, the guard was entangled by the slave, and the girl went into battle with a skirt knife, stabbed three people on the spot, cut off both ears of the evil boy, and then had him twisted and sent to the Shuntian Mansion. Chu Kuan originally thought that people were quite suitable, but after this incident, he hurriedly told me, saying that she could not be chosen in the final selection no matter what. If such a girl marries into the palace, if one is not good, she will enter with a white knife and come out with a red knife. ”
"Such a hot thing, how come I don't know!" Zhu Ying was shocked! This is enough to shake the entire capital, how can it not even splash a little water?
The emperor saw that Zhu Ying's focus was so crooked that he couldn't say anything, he couldn't help crying and laughing: "The girl on the list of ten people in the re-election is also the best from her family, but she was robbed by a murderer on the street, and then this powerful girl also killed people, isn't this matter going to make a big fuss?" Zhang Chuan already had a headache, and Chu Kuan personally went to tell him not to make a noise, so of course he suppressed it. ”
Of course, the Ye family didn't want to make a noise. Although my own girl is amazing, is this a very beautiful thing? ”
Zhu Ying finally understood, and couldn't help but be more curious about the emperor's recommendation, but she still couldn't help but sneer: "The emperor is too, why didn't you say such an interesting girl earlier, I would have gone to the door long ago!" ”
That's right...... It's as if you're a man who wants to marry someone back home! The amused emperor immediately said with a straight face: "Such a good girl, can't I keep it for myself?" ”
However, his black face was destined to hit a wall in front of Zhu Ying, because Zhu Ying raised her eyebrows and said in an extremely natural tone: "There is a harem of people who know martial arts, isn't Concubine Yu?" It's not good to get Longwangshu! ”
It's human nature to have Longwang Shu, right? Thinking that it might be his daughter in front of him, the emperor could only swallow back the words that came to his mouth, and then gestured with disgust: "You dead girl, I really hurt in vain, and my elbows turned out!" Hurry up and go, rob my inner library, and rob the person I fancie, I really lost my wife and lost my soldiers! Let's go, let's go! ”
Anyway, it was not the first time that she had been picked up by the emperor, and Zhu Ying was not angry at all. She curtsied without saying a word, then turned around and walked lightly, until the front of the door turned her head and smiled: "I know that the emperor has always been the best to me!" ”
Listening to the footsteps of the people with the crisp laughter gradually drifting away, the emperor touched his mustache and couldn't help but sigh softly. If everyone in the world can't hide their seven emotions and six desires like Zhu Ying, and they are sincere and sincere, how simple will this world be? Too often, the emperor has to be a loner, because he doesn't dare to have a confidant!
