Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 209: Double Happiness

On the throne, Chunjia's tone was difficult to distinguish between joy and anger, and he ordered without emotion: "Quick play!"

"Return to Your Majesty, since the Double Ninth Banquet, there have indeed been frequent changes of poor scholars. So far, including Xie Fu, there are nearly ten of them!" It seems accidental and accidental, and the people involved did not notice the clues, but luck was not good at the time, and the official was not reported, and the Imperial City Secretary was negligent, please punish him!"

He was indeed quite panicked, after all, the emperor was not the one who promoted him personally, and now that such a big mistake happened, Chunjia ordered him to be pushed out and beheaded on the spot, so he didn't dare to intercede with him right now—— Nearly ten poor scholars are actually not that important, the key is that Xie Wuzheng took the lead in making a fuss, to plead for the lives of the poor scholars in the world!

This matter has become a big deal, and if the court fails to handle it well, it will be labeled as chilling the hearts of poor scholars all over the world. It must be known that the rich and powerful are powerful, but the majority of the people in the world are still poor.

With Chunjia's appearance as a wise gentleman, how could she be blamed for this?

impossible.

At that time, in order to reassure the hearts of poor scholars in the world, and also to win the praise of scholars, Sun Yu and other subordinates must be pushed out to top the vat.

In this way, his death will be in vain, and his famous history, I am afraid that his name is not good--why let Qingshi be written by scholars? Dare to take them seriously and still have good results?

"Bastard!" There was silence in the hall for a moment, and before the ministers could speak, Danchi Shangchunjia was already furious and smashed things down, "Is this what the Imperial City Secretary was ordered to monitor the world?! Even if you have such an experience, let alone the rest?! Such a vegetarian meal, what is the use of you?!"

"I deserve death for my crimes!" Sun Yu couldn't justify himself, dripping with sweat, he had to kneel on the ground and kowtow frequently.

"Your Majesty, this matter has indeed happened to the Imperial City Division. However, there are as many scholars as the crucian carp crossing the river, but they are not as vigilant as this scholar surnamed Nie. They have not reported it. The Imperial City Division has limited manpower and has oversight. It’s inevitable.” The corner of the regent’s eyes twitched wildly, and he finally stood up to smooth things over and said, “It’s a good thing that Enke hasn’t opened yet, so there’s still time to thoroughly investigate and give justice to these scholars... As for those who can no longer end the game , you are still young, and if you make some compensation, you may not have a chance in the next subject. I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"

Chunjia's face was covered by the crown, and while the jade beads were swaying, he saw the emperor's thin lips tightly pursed, revealing a bit of coldness, and after a while, he slowly uttered a word: "Yes!"

There was a silent sigh of relief in the temple.

So the regent discussed briefly with Cui Wan and others, and soon decided that Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment will jointly investigate the frequent accidents of poor scholars—including the case of Xie Fu beating the son of an official the day before yesterday——Yushitai and Huang Chengsi listened in and had to give Shih Lin an explanation.

... After retreating from the imperial court, Chunjia went to Xuanqing Palace before she could change her clothes. She briefly told the story, and teased Yun Fenghuang with a smile, but she also misunderstood: "I see Xie Wuzheng. Although he is young, he acts resolutely. Calculation is a unique talent!"

Yun Fenghuang thought to himself that this cousin of his family might be more thoughtful than you think, but as for Xie Wuzheng's doubts and precautions, as long as he knew it, he didn't intend to tell Chunjia, so he followed his lead now, Complimented: "It can be seen that His Majesty is favored by God. This concubine's twenty-first brother was quite taciturn at home, and even his concubine's first cousin didn't know his methods. Now that he has come to the Imperial Capital, he has shown his talents. This is all because of His Majesty's intentional cultivation, the Mandate of Heaven, of course, wants to come true."

You just wanted to use talents, and this came out. Doesn't it prove that God's will is on you?

Chunjia was in a happy mood when she heard it, and said directly: "Xie Wuzheng is about the same age as the three princesses, but his background is a bit humbler, and it is not appropriate to match Minghui, who is a descendant. When he is named on the gold list, Penglai will be promised to him." stop!"

Although he also said it through his mouth before, it was probably a vague promise made by Yun Fenghuang after all kinds of entanglement.

But now he said it clearly, which shows that he is satisfied with Xie Wuzheng.

Of course, Yun Fenghuang knew that it was not only that Xie Wuzheng's response met the emperor's request for his son-in-law, but also because his action directly gave the emperor two excellent opportunities: one was to purge the Imperial City Secretary; The second is to sell well with Shilin.

The former is due to the fact that the Imperial City Division was handed over to the Regent before Xiaozong's death. Although the Imperial City Division has been under the direct control of the emperor in name, in fact, there must be some people, like Yi Guogong, who uphold the ancestral system and are loyal to Chunjia. , but in general, it still bears the brand of the Regent.

Chunjia had kept a low profile before, so naturally she couldn't say anything or do anything.

After being in power, he formed an alliance with the regent, and it was inconvenient to openly attack the Imperial City Secretary.

But now, with Enke just around the corner, accidents happened one after another among the scholars going for the exam, and the Imperial City Secretary is still ignorant. For such a big mistake, it’s good that the emperor didn’t ask the senior officials of the Imperial City Department to apologize collectively. Isn’t it natural to carry out some rectification?

Even if the regent is not reconciled, he can't say anything.

The latter is to further consolidate the rumors of Chunjia's "Mingjun".

The emperor has spent a lot of effort to build up his reputation since he took office, and in his position, it doesn't mean that he can get rid of it if he has built up his reputation—even the kind of Ninety-five Supreme Being who messes up in the universe and kills him. What about the popularity and popularity of the people, let alone the current Chunjia?

This time, Xie Wuzheng took the lead to call for grievances, and in addition to cleaning up the Imperial City Department, he might be able to catch the painful feet of a few political opponents. class reputation.

Really appreciate it.

If Yun Fenghuang was in Xie Wuzheng's position, I'm afraid he couldn't do better.

It's no wonder that Chunjia made the promise directly.

And Xie Wuzheng's academic performance is not bad, otherwise, even with the influence of Xie's family background in the North, it is impossible for him to be famous at such a young age. If there is another word from the emperor, Yun Fenghuang will pass it on to him later. Who would dare not take Enke in the coming year?

It is a foregone conclusion that Xie's lintel will skyrocket. Although it will take several months before it can be finalized, if there is no accident, this wave will be stable.

Yun Fenghuang was also beaming with joy, Xie Wuzheng, who was full of smiles, thanked Mrs. Xie, but at this time, the palace servants came to report again, saying that it was Liang Fengyi from Taiyin Xiaozhu who had something wrong with serving him. The person in charge told Xie Hengyu that he had invited a medical girl to go, and it was suspected that there was a happy event!

"This is really a double blessing!" Yun Fenghuang hurriedly sent someone to call the imperial physician after hearing the words. After a while, the imperial physician diagnosed him. The Liang family is indeed happy. Counting the date is two months ago, the reason why it has been delayed until now Only then did I realize that her menstruation was not very accurate, her position was low, she didn't go to bed very often, and the palace servants were not too attentive, so she would invite a medical lady, and she said she had an illness, never expected such a thing Good thing, I was so happy that I couldn't speak for a while.

Yun Fenghuang didn't care about this, and said to Chunjia with a smile, "I hope Liang Fengyi, no, Liang Yuwan can give Your Majesty a healthy heir."

Chunjia drank tea calmly and took the opportunity to look at her expression. Seeing that she smiled naturally, her expression was amiable, and she didn't look lonely or sad, and her heart was a little complicated: I don't know how to be relieved that the concubine Zhen was not touched by Liang's pregnancy and she couldn't give birth. Is it sad, or should I suspect that the concubine Zhen is so generous and not jealous, whether her affection for herself is not deep enough?

"Your Majesty, why don't we go together to announce the good news to our loving mother, the Empress Dowager?" Yun Fenghuang was indeed very happy about Liang's happiness. She couldn't give birth by herself, and it's possible that Yi Xingen's child was a girl She has a great personality, and now there is a Liang family, even if it is not necessarily a prince, but the emperor's heir does not spend her money to support him anyway, and does not need her to take care of him on a daily basis. Naturally, the more the better.

But then thinking that Empress Dowager Yuan was worrying about Yuan Niangniang, she pulled Chunjia to act like a spoiled child, "It also makes the empress dowager happy!"

Chunjia squinted at her, and said unhurriedly: "Do you want to make the empress dowager happy, or let me serve as a shield for you to go to the empress?"

Don't think that he can't see it, this concubine is afraid that after the Queen Mother Yuan learns about this, she will mention the matter of a royal heir to Mrs. Chun Ke, so she encourages him to go there together so that she can go out and disturb this matter!

"Your Majesty!" Yun Fenghuang's thoughts were seen through, and he didn't care, he simply went up and hugged his arm to act like a baby, "It's not that the concubine said it was Mrs. Chunke's fault, but it's not that there have been concubines in Huzhu Palace all these years. The emperor's heir, even Madam Chunke has been pregnant twice! But what happened? None of them stood still! Your Majesty is still empty under his knees. It's so easy to add all these good news this year, but so far there is no lively emperor's heir Cheng Huan How can the ones who are down on their knees be sent to the Huzhu Palace for adventure?"

He muttered again, "Mrs. Chunke had to hire an imperial physician a few days ago, she simply couldn't take care of herself!"

How about taking care of pregnant concubines, let alone taking care of the emperor's heir in the future?

"You always have a reason." Chunjia teased, finally complied, and led her to the Spring Palace.

Empress Dowager Yuan was quite surprised when she saw them coming together, and she said something. After knowing that it was for the joy of the Liang family, her face was not very good-looking: "But it is worth the two of you to run this journey in person if a concubine is happy. Come on! When I greet you tomorrow, let the real concubine say something? The Ai family thought that anyone above the ninth concubine had good news."

Yun Fenghuang said with a smile: "Actually, His Majesty missed you, so I came here to announce the good news to you in person. I happen to have a few things to ask you, no, so I followed here ignorantly." ?”

"Now that the queen is ill, you can decide the affairs of the harem." Empress Dowager Yuan smiled slightly and said kindly, "But why bother to ask Aijia again? In fact, Aijia has never presided over the Sixth Palace, so it may not be able to help you. busy."

"The empress dowager loves humility, but I have heard from your majesty that when you were in the palace, you acted vigorously and gave orders as you wished. When it comes to the ability to preside over Zhongfu, it may not be worse than the mother empress dowager and the empress empress. "Yun Fenghuang said softly, "No, the day is just around the corner. Although there are old rules in the palace, the concubine is thinking about it. At the beginning of the year, His Majesty was in charge. This year is different from previous years. Will there be some adjustments to the palace banquet on this day? ?”

Empress Dowager Yuan said sternly: "That's right, the emperor's son is not what he used to be, and it's really inappropriate to follow the old rules."

So the two discussed the changes to the daily banquet, and they also asked Xia Chunjia for their opinions. Chunjia never cared about these things, and basically followed their wishes. So before lunch, Yun Fenghuang and the court affairs got up and left, leaving Chunjia alone to accompany the Queen Mother to eat.

"Does the emperor often tell the real concubine about our past?" The empress dowager Yuan and the amiable Tong Chunjia finished their lunch, rinsed their mouths with the tea offered by the palace man, thought for a while, and asked, "The real concubine You are young, and your temper is also jumpy, but you can't bear to listen to these past stories?"

Chunjia said gently: "It's not accidental, it's just that the real concubine is in charge of the palace for the first time, and she is in a hurry about many things, so she can't help but feel annoyed. Therefore, when I saw the boy, I asked privately twice about how to start when the mother was in charge of the palace alone. The boy saw that she was anxious. The white-faced one also mentioned a few words."

"Really?" Empress Dowager Yuan smiled, but there was no smile in her eyes, and said softly, "This is a studious child."

She chatted with the emperor calmly for a while, then sent the person away, facing Zhanliu and other attendants, she no longer concealed her face, and her face became gloomy, "Did you hear it just now? This concubine, I thought it was a mistake when I saw it before." She can change and be sensible, but now she is showing her true colors... Where did she ask Huang'er about the past to learn from Aijia's experience? Everyone likes it and has a plan!"

"It's fine if she's the only one like this, after all, she's just a concubine, she's hard to become a great weapon!"

"But the news was just sent!"

"In the temple, her cousin is also an ambitious person... If things go on like this, who else is her opponent in this huge harem?!"

Empress Dowager Yuan looked gloomy, "It's nothing else, what happened to the Ji family in the past must never happen again!"
