Back in the palace, at this time except for the queen's people, there were no other concubines, the concubine saluted the queen, and the queen asked people to help her up halfway.

"I haven't seen you in this palace for a long time, I think you have lost a little weight, and your body is okay?" the queen looked at the concubine who was seated and said with a smile.

"Queen Xie cares, the concubine is fine, eat less, let the queen worry about you, it is the concubine's sin. Concubine Jin leaned over and said with a smile.

The queen smiled, the emperor did not tell the matter directly, but the queen has the power of the harem, and it can be said that as long as she is willing, everyone in the palace knows every move.

Over the years, the empress has gradually learned that this concubine is not so much the emperor's concubine as the emperor's minister, and the mastery of the curse and forbidden department is unfathomable.

This concubine has a deferential attitude and enough qualifications, the queen has always looked at each other, and the queen is also very satisfied with the attitude of the concubine at this time.

"Sister, leave you to talk this time, this palace has something I want to ask my sister for help. The queen said with a smile.

When Concubine Jin heard this, she hurriedly gathered her clothes and said, "Yes." Then he said, "Please also ask the queen mother to command." ”

"Xiyuan wants my sister to go over and take a look, how is it finished, there is a royal garden, and it is not very reassuring to see it from outsiders. The queen spoke, and her eyes flashed with light.

Hearing this name, Concubine Jin had a grace in her heart, this is a royal summer garden, and the queen wants her to take a look, which is very common, and very unusual.

The queen drank tea and put all the expressions of Concubine Jin in her eyes.

Let Concubine Jin go, it's really the difference between Concubine Jin.

The palace is strictly forbidden, except for the queen mother, all the other palace concubines must abide by the rules, even if they are the queen, they are in power, and there are many things that cannot be violated.

Concubine Jin is special, not to mention anything else, the palace ban alone is very obvious.

Let's not talk about low-grade nobles, even if they are higher-grade concubines, their relatives are also outsiders, and they need the queen's approval to enter the palace.

And these concubines can't go out of the palace, unless the emperor orders them to go to the provincial family, or royal hunting and summer vacation, otherwise they basically have to live in this harem for the rest of their lives.

Even the queen herself, there are rules for going in and out, and you can't do whatever you want.

Only Concubine Jin, she can enter and leave the palace at will, the queen was shocked at first, but she didn't ask much, just carefully checked the records, and found that every time she entered, there were chamberlains, guards, and thirteen divisions involved, which was obviously with the permission of the emperor.

The queen dominates the harem and is particularly sensitive to this kind of things that are beyond the norm, so she brought up this matter when she met with Concubine Jin.

Concubine Jin pondered for a moment, answered the promise, and said, "Yes!"

This matter was originally what she did, and the feng shui and structure of the royal garden were presided over by her, and by the way, she responded to the queen's decree, there was nothing to shirk, and although she didn't say it, the emperor and the concubine did not deliberately avoid it, so they responded.

Say goodbye and go out, and go out through a certain channel.

"Queen Niangniang, I heard that Concubine Jin Niangniang has gone out of the palace with someone. Not long after Concubine Jin left, a female official came to the queen and whispered.

When the queen heard this, she nodded: "Since this is the case, wait for the result." ”

Seeing the female official withdraw, Song Xinyou, who was sitting on the upper seat in the hall, pondered, although he was pondering, he still sat upright, Qingsi hung down, with a smile, his eyes were soft and faded, and he did gradually have the nobility of the mother's world.

For this concubine who has repeatedly had special treatment, the queen had mixed feelings.

Young and beautiful, with the emperor's favor, and there is also friendship in the queen mother, who will be the queen will also have some vigilance.

But the point made the queen a little more relaxed.

First of all, the concubine did not have the support of the clan, at the beginning I heard that this woman was also born in an official family, and was the daughter of an official family, but she was separated from her family, and she has not been able to find it until now.

And most importantly, Concubine Jin has no heirs. The emperor's favor is only temporary, and the emperor's favor is only for one person and one generation, how can it be achieved by relying on the heirs in the future.

Although Concubine Jin has some imperial favors, she has no heirs, which is like a rootless flower, no matter how beautiful it is, it will not bear fruit in the end, and it will not become an atmosphere.

In the end, the queen herself has enough chips.

His descendants are trusted and reused by the emperor, he has a son-in-law and is valued by the emperor, he also has the emperor's favor, and he has the emperor's respect, which is incomparable to other concubines.

As an emperor, especially the founder of the country, many times he can't help himself, as long as he can put the queen first and attach importance to his son-in-law, this is enough for Song Xinyou, who is the queen.

The only thing that made her a little uneasy...... It was the emperor's delay in appointing the crown prince.

Although the world was initially decided, the emperor was only twenty-five years old, this matter is still a little premature, and the emperor also attaches importance to other heirs, and it may not be possible that there will be other heirs to share the emperor's ghost in a few years".

The Song family is a big family in Shudi, and it is still not first-class among all the families in the world, and which of the new concubines in the harem is not from everyone?

If only they had children......

Song Xinyou couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

The Imperial Study

Yu Zhao, as the prime minister, was speaking: "Your Majesty, all the departments have appointed people, but last year, they won half of the world at once, and it is difficult to find the officials of this county. ”

"I said this at the last court meeting. Wang Hongyi smiled: "This dynasty has been established, but the speed behind it is still too fast, and the foundation has not yet been ...... solid."

Yu Zhao thoughtfully, his eyes flashed and he smiled, and said: "Your Majesty, I am now appointed, promoted from the original counties, and inspected some good use among the degraded officials, but this is an expedient measure after all, whether it is promoted in the imperial examination." "No, now it's just a temporary expediency, and the appointment of officials and people in the imperial examination is my national policy, and the restoration of the three officials of the township in ancient times, the people and scholars of the imperial examination must pass this pass, and what I want is not an official who talks clearly, but a practical official who rises from the township and county." ”

"This is national politics, it can't be violated, the secretary is the prime minister, unlike others, I just said bluntly, whoever shakes my national government, the monarch and the minister can't be the king, the credit is gone, I don't hesitate to kill!" Wang Hongyi said quietly.

This kind of aftercalm suddenly made Yu Zhao feel a chill in his heart, and smiled: "Yes, this is the country's theory of talent, and since the emperor has made a decision, we all know what to do." ”

"I believe in the secretary, and I believe in the cabinet. Wang Hongyi smiled: "You are the first prime minister, this is the first cabinet, the task I gave is very simple and very complicated, in the five-year term, all kinds of official systems, up and down, systems, rules, have been clarified, there is a great contribution to the society." ”

Hearing this, Yu Zhao couldn't sit still, got up and bowed: "The minister understands." ”

"Get up, I still have two things, the first is to consider the reward of the meritorious minister, this matter I am going to spend a year or two to complete, don't be too anxious, after the initial discussion comes out, show it to me. ”

After some more words, the prime minister withdrew.

Wang Hongyi sighed, looked at the fold on the imperial case, and finally put the imperial pen aside and stood up.

The chamberlain saw that the emperor looked a little tired: "Your Majesty, can you boil some refreshing soup for the emperor?"

"It's just a little stuffy to sit in, just take a walk. Wang Hongyi said, and went to public opinion.

In January, the weather is a little cold.

The weather on this day was very good, the sun was shining, spring had just begun, Wang Hongyi was sitting on the ceremony, breathing the air outside, and after a while, a slightly boring feeling went a lot.

In two months, the scenery in this palace will be good, a piece of tender green, the garden is even more violet, butterflies flying in it, the scenery can be regarded as very beautiful.

For the emperor, who focused on government affairs, this thought passed in a blink of an eye.

went to the back, first went to see the queen mother, stayed in the queen for a while, left the queen's palace, and ordered someone to go straight to the concubine.

Sitting on the public opinion, Wang Hongyi thought about things.

A sticker came up just now, knowing that the queen sent Concubine Jin to Xiyuan, he remembered that the world was initially decided, and there were still some things that needed to be unified.

The ten ** built in Xiyuan should be without exception, and it is good in all aspects.

Before the construction, there will be no shortage of various matters, but for the sake of insurance, after the repair, I will let Concubine Jin take a look.

After listening to what the queen said, Concubine Jin reported to her that everything was fine in Xiyuan, which could be used for a royal summer vacation.

Being in the royal family, he is not free in many cases, Wang Hongyi is not stingy with his own people, and if possible, he is also willing to let the harem have one more place to have fun.

"Niangniang!" In the palace of the concubine, Taozhu stepped forward, saw Niangniang sitting, stepped forward and said: "The hour is not early, go and let people prepare lunch." ”

Concubine Jin said lightly: "Go and prepare,... Let's follow yesterday's dishes. ”

"No. Momotake silently retreated and ordered to prepare.

When Wang Hongyi arrived, Concubine Jin had just had lunch and asked people to take things down, when she heard a report from the palace that the emperor was coming.

Wang Hongyi often comes, and when he comes in, he walks directly inside",

After Concubine Jin got the news, she took the palace people out to greet her, and saw Su Er Yingying, who was wearing a light pink Luo skirt, bowed down: "The concubine has missed the welcome, please forgive me." ”

Wang Hongyi walked over, took Concubine Jin's hand, and said with a smile: "I didn't greet Concubine Ai when I came, what is the crime? ”

Concubine Jin lowered her head slightly when she heard this: "This is the duty of a concubine."

"This is not a place to speak, the concubine comes with me. Saying that, Wang Hongyi took Concubine Jin by hand and walked slowly inside, and the palace attendants behind him couldn't help but slow down slightly.

Although Concubine Jin is not a queen, nor is she a concubine, but her position in this palace is not low, and the palace where she lives is very well furnished, but it is not a golden atmosphere, with a little cold.

Wang Hongyi has long been accustomed to the layout here, and he doesn't mind the coldness here, so when he sat inside, he waited for her to report.
