"What does Yoko mean, I choose a beautiful one for the emperor?" Lin Yiqing was stunned.

"Yes, yes." Yoko Shimazu smiled and nodded.

"Pull it down! What does it mean for the queen mother to choose her niece as the queen, you don't know, I have a horizontal stick here, isn't it looking for death? Lin Yiqing looked at Yoko Shimazu strangely, not understanding how she, a female Zhuge could give herself such a very idiotic idea.

"The beautiful one I'm talking about is also the niece of the Queen Mother." Yoko Shimazu knew that Lin Yiqing would be wrong, and immediately gave the answer.

"You're talking about Jingfang, the third daughter of the Chengen family, right?" Lin Yiqing immediately understood who Yoko Shimazu was talking about.

"Yes, yes."

"That's a little young, isn't it?"

"The standard for a draft girl is thirteen to seventeen years old, and she is fourteen years old this year, which meets the standard, but she has been married to Belle Chengpeng, the heir of the king of Fujun since she was a child. Although she and Jingfen are sisters, their mutual and personality are very different, and they are much better than their sisters. ”

Yoko Shimazu said, took out another photo, and handed it to Lin Yiqing.

Lin Yiqing saw that the photo was a round-faced girl with big eyes, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, smiling and standing next to her father Chengen Gong Guixiang, she was not tall, but her figure was very well-proportioned, her face was not very gorgeous, but she was also very beautiful, and her smile could be seen from the photo that she was a very cheerful girl.

"Her age is enough for the draft, but there is no her among the show girls who are candidates for the queen this time, her sister Jingfen's age is actually beyond the standard, you must know that Jingfen is more than three years older than the emperor. And as far as I know, she has a cowardly personality and poor health, and the Queen Mother regards her as the first choice, probably because her personality is easier to control. ”

"Although the queen mother is shrewd and capable, she doesn't understand the psychology of her son at all, her own son is all wasted, this succession, she still has the same routine, it's really terrible." Lin Yiqing sighed.

"I guess the queen mother didn't choose Jingfang, first, because she was young, second, because she was married to the heir of the pregnant prince since she was a child, and third, she was afraid that she would not be able to control her." Yoko Shimazu analyzed, "So the Queen Mother chose Jingfen." ”

"Yoko wants me to persuade the Queen Mother to choose Jingfang?"

"Yes, yes."

"This plan is feasible, but I came forward to persuade it, and I am afraid that it will not be good......

Lin Yiqing pondered for a moment, suddenly had an idea in his heart, and couldn't help laughing.

"Yes, yes, hehehehe, this is very good, I can ask the emperor what he means first, if the emperor likes Jingfang, then ...... No, that's it, it's her. I tried to persuade the Queen Mother to increase the number of alternate draft women, and the queen set Jingfang, as for Jingfen, she couldn't let her go anyway, wasn't she frail and sickly? This time, she couldn't afford to get sick, and after the emperor's wedding, she would recover! Hehehehehe! ”

"Lin Jun, don't laugh like this, okay, it looks so evil......"

"I have to arrange it first, send someone to poison Jingfen and make her sick, at least she will be sick for most of the year and won't be able to get up, but she can't die...... It's easy to get married, the big Qianzu system, the eight show girls have to stick to the emperor first, and they are not allowed to marry without permission! What fingertips for marriage are all behind! ”

Seeing Lin Yiqing start planning like a well-wound mechanical clock, Yoko Shimazu smiled and leaned back.

The next day, the Forbidden City, Yuqing Palace.

"Why is the emperor restless today?" Lin Yiqing finished the class, and when he saw Emperor Guangxu's sad appearance, he was amused in his heart and deliberately asked.

"Oh, it's nothing, I'm fine." Emperor Guangxu smiled reluctantly and replied.

"The emperor is worried because of the fire in Taihe Gate, and the minister guarantees to the emperor, and within two months, Taihe Gate will be repaired as new." Lin Yiqing said.

The wedding celebration of Emperor Guangxu was originally scheduled for the 27th day of the first month of the 15th year of Guangxu (February 26, 9089 Western calendar). Just when the harem was busy with the emperor's wedding, an unexpected thing happened. In the middle of the night on December 15, the 14th year of Guangxu (January 16, 9089 in the Western calendar), it was a snowflakes flying on a cold winter night, and a fire broke out in the Forbidden City, burning down the Taihe Gate in front of the Taihe Palace.

The so-called "gates" in the palace are actually huge buildings. Taihe Gate is an extremely majestic "court gate" that leads to the three major halls of the court and the harem after entering the Forbidden City from the noon gate, spanning nine rooms, with a height of six zhang and five feet and two inches (about 22 meters), although it is a bungalow, it is equivalent to six or seven stories high. The Zhendu Gate and the Zhaode Gate on the left and right are also four feet four feet five inches (about 15 meters) high, which is equivalent to the height of four or five floors. There are 32 wings in the east and west of the door, and the corridors are connected. The fire started in the tea warehouse in the west, but the fire quickly rushed out of the roof of the tea warehouse and flew up to the eaves of the Taihe Gate. All the buildings in the Forbidden City are built with fine wood, and they have been extremely dry for many years. A small spark bursts up, and in the blink of an eye, it turns into a raging fire. That is, in the blink of an eye, the flames on the eaves of Taihe Gate have turned into soaring flames. The speed with which the fire developed was astonishing, and in an instant, it passed the Taihe Gate and continued eastward. The fire soon burned down many palace rooms such as the felt storehouse, the armor storehouse, and the saddle storehouse of the Armament Temple, and then went east to the Shotokumon Gate. Despite the efforts of the Nine Cities Water Dragon Team, they were still unable to do anything, and watched a magnificent building turn to ashes. Weng Shuping, who was at the scene of the fire, sighed in his diary: "This disaster is also strange and thrilling, but what can I do! ”

After the fire, the Taihe Gate was reduced to ruins, and there was one thing that embarrassed the imperial court: according to the ancestral system of Daqian, when the emperor got married, the queen must be carried into the palace from the main gate of the Forbidden City, the noon gate. After entering the first "court" noon gate, you must also enter the second court, the Taihe Gate, and then enter the inner palace to the north. However, now that the Taihe Gate has been burned down, the queen has no second way to enter, which is undoubtedly unlucky.

However, it will take a long time to rebuild the Taihe Gate, and seeing that Emperor Guangxu's wedding date is approaching, this is really a dilemma.

For this reason, the Empress Dowager Renxi specially convened a court meeting to discuss, and the final result of the meeting was to postpone the date of Emperor Guangxu's wedding by three months, and strive to repair the Taihe Gate within three months.

In the past, it would have been an impossible task to repair the Taihe Gate within three months, but now it can use advanced machinery to get twice the result with half the effort, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has accumulated a lot of experience in the reconstruction of the Qingqi Garden, so it dares to accept it.

Emperor Guangxu understood the situation, so he naturally would not feel upset about this, in fact, after knowing who he wanted to marry as the queen, he had the idea that he wished that this wedding could not be done, and the desire to pro-judge the government was not so strong.

Seeing the appearance of the emperor's students, Lin Yiqing had a plan in his heart, and took advantage of the time to retreat left and right, pulling the little emperor to his side. 【】

"Is the emperor worried about the queen?" Lin Yiqing asked in a low voice.

"Master Lin...... You also know who I am going to marry......" The little emperor was already full of grievances, so when he asked Lin Yiqing to ask this, his eyes were red when he stared.

"The emperor is not in a hurry, the ministers are willing to share the emperor's worries." Lin Yiqing quickly took Jingfang's photo out of her sleeve and stuffed it into the little emperor's hand, "How does the emperor look at her?" ”

The little emperor looked at it carefully for a while, and his eyes gradually lit up.

Lin Yiqing knew that there was no comparison and didn't know, Jingfang in the photo at this moment, compared to her sister, should be shocking in the eyes of the little emperor.

"It's ......"

"Cheng'en Gong's youngest daughter, named Jingfang, the little emperor is four years old, originally promised to be married to Beile Chengpeng, the heir of the prince of the pregnant county, because she failed to run for election, if the emperor likes her, this matter will be covered by the minister." Lin Yiqing whispered.

“…… It's all up to Master Lin. After Guangxu finished speaking, he shoved the photo into Lin Yiqing's hand, blushed and ran away.

Well, it's time to go into the garden next. Lin Yiqing took the photo and walked away.

Qingqi Garden, Yongqing Changchun, Daya Zhai.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager Renxi is having the same troubles as Emperor Guangxu.

In the days after the fire at Taihe Gate, in the face of the raging fire in the Forbidden City, the Empress Dowager Renxi was restless and unable to sleep and eat.

First, she worries that the fire will spread to other parts of Miyagi. Renxi knew that although the fire started at the Taihe Gate, there was still some distance from the three major halls of the court and the harem, but the water and fire were ruthless, especially the buildings of the Forbidden City were mostly wood, and once the fire occurred, the fire was difficult to control.

Second, she worries that public opinion will be difficult to calm down after the fire. The trade unions of Chinese and foreign ministers used the words "the heavens are angry and the people are resentful" to evaluate their own governance.

At this point she must strike first. When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were still immersed in the atmosphere of amazement after the fire, Renxi's opinions on the handling of the fire had been issued:

First, an edict was issued in the name of Emperor Guangxu, and punishment and reward went hand in hand. The death penalty is imposed on those directly responsible for the fire caused by falling asleep with a lamp. The Minister of Internal Affairs, the commander of the infantry army, and the commander of the forward battalion, who were responsible for management, were also punished with demotion, fines, and so on. To reward those who have made meritorious contributions to firefighting, the household department will give more than 14,000 taels of silver as a reward.

Second, suspend the rebuilding project of Qingqiyuan and make every effort to rebuild Taihe Gate. In the face of such a sudden change, Renxi knew that he had to make a posture of "fearing the power of heaven and improving the province" to correct the situation. Therefore, Renxi issued a decree to suspend the part of the Qingqiyuan project: "On the 16th of this month, Zhendu Gate does not abstain from fire, which is a careless observance, and in case of disasters, it is advisable to set an example for repairing the province first, and all Qingqiyuan projects, except for the Buddha Yu and the Zhenglu Palace, the rest of the work will be stopped, so as to show frugality and harmony." ”

Third, reward lavishly and win people's hearts. After the fire, in order to stabilize people's hearts, within three days, Renxi issued an edict to reward the court's civil and military officials, feudal officials and relatives of the emperor, even foreign envoys stationed in Beijing, she did not forget to "set up a banquet to entertain".

The adverse consequences of the Taihemen fire did not make big waves in Renxi's prevarication. However, the festive atmosphere in the harem for Emperor Guangxu's wedding was shrouded in a layer of gloom by this natural and man-made disaster, and although the wedding celebration had been postponed, she was still worried that it would not be held as scheduled.

Because of her internal choice of queen, she suddenly fell seriously ill and was already dying.
