Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 145

“Queen empress, this is the green chrysanthemum presented by Cai Guogong Mansion, please visit.”

Cheng Yujin just glanced lightly and nodded, “This palace knows, let’s put it in the garden.”

“promise.”

His Majesty ascended the throne on the ninth day of August, and it is almost a month now. After the death of Emperor Xiandi due to immortality, His Majesty was very sad, but the country could not be ruled for a day. Under the persuasion of many courtiers, His Majesty was strong in his spirit. Now, it is already September of Yuan Xi ’s first year.

The crown prince conformed to the destiny and became king, and Cheng Yujin became the queen. Because the first emperor died in a violent death, Li Chengjing and Cheng Yujin, as sons and daughters-in-law, deserve filial piety for three years. However, the state affairs cannot be left unattended, so the cabinet advocates that the Japanese emperor and the emperor keep filial piety for the first 27 days, so they can take off their filial piety and resume normal operations.

Cheng Yujin got rid of his clothes at the beginning of the month, and soon, the Chongyang Festival arrived. This is Li Chengjing’s first grand ceremony after he ascended the throne. Everyone advocates a big event, and everything is updated to show the joy of the new dynasty. However, Li Chengjing felt that it was not necessary. Some time ago, because of the evil deeds and the chaos of the Chao Gang, a lot of people’s fat was searched in the name of alchemy, and the people were already suffering. Although Li Chengjing immediately abolished the construction of Bailutai as soon as he came to power, the Yinliang scattered for this purpose could not receive it. Li Chengjing is not easy to understand the people’s livelihood, the treasury is empty, and he does not want to be extravagant, so all celebrations in the new dynasty are simple.

His Majesty the Emperor said this, the people below naturally have no reason to blame. Seeing that Chongyang is approaching, Cheng Yujin, as the queen, will personally come to host the Chongyang celebration. This was Cheng Yujin’s first public appearance as a queen, and she didn’t want to take this opportunity to please the queen. However, His Majesty did not allow expensive gifts, and everyone in the capital hollowed out his thoughts for this, and tried his best to send inexpensive gifts, but it was a wonderful gift to make the Queen smile.

The things sent by Cai Guogong were very unique, because it was the Double Ninth Festival, they sent flowers into the palace, and it was a coincidence. Ordinary chrysanthemums are inevitable. Everyone deliberately found green chrysanthemums, cultivated them carefully, and sent them to the palace in the Chung Yeung Festival.

It’s a pity that the people of Cai Guogong took so much thought. When Lv Ju carried Cheng Yujin in front of her, she only glanced lightly and let the palace people lift to the garden. This is very different from Madam Zhai’s expectation that the queen saw the flower very much and greatly appreciated it. Mrs. Shu sat on the side, and when she saw it, she knocked sideways and asked, “The green flower is rare, and it happened to catch up with the Chongyang. These few pots of green chrysanthemums are sent to you. The queen’s mother was sent directly to the garden, but I didn’t like it Green flowers? ”

Cheng Yujin shook his head and said puns: “The ten thousand flowers are all the same. This palace is treated equally, but it will not be deliberately targeted. But His Majesty said that the treasury is empty, the people’s strength is not continued, and the official residences of the capital should not be extravagant. It ’s better to lead by example. Although these green chrysanthemums are just ordinary plants, but to cultivate such a green chrysanthemum, I do n’t know how much manpower and material resources are spent, and the cost behind it is not less than that of gold and silver jewelry. It takes so much money to open a flower A flower that will wither in more than ten days is a waste. This extravagant wind can’t be long, and it cannot be given to the capital. ”

The concubine Shu was originally a concubine, the eldest lady of the Xu family of the Changguo government, and now the emperor Bin Tian, ​​the concubine also became a concubine. Because the New Emperor was compassionate and free of concubines, burials, and tombs, the tofu and other people could still live in the Forbidden City and live a stable life in peace.

Concubine Shu had originally speculated that the Queen’s nomination of Cai Guogong’s government was true, because it was because she hated Cai Guogong’s offense against the Queen. Mrs. Shu’s mother’s house and Yichun Hou Mansion were close. I had heard about it. Before the emperor gave the prince and his mother a gift, Cai Guogong’s mansion wanted to marry the mother back as a string. In the end, this thing didn’t work out naturally. After the announcement of the marriage decree, it almost didn’t scare the old lady of Cai Guogong to death.

After that, the people of Cai Guogong Palace saw the queen and walked around. When the queen was still the crown prince in the East Palace, the Zhai family was very pleased with the mother, fearing that the mother would pursue the old account. Later, the crown prince became king, and the crown prince became queen. The Zhai family became more and more frightened. This is not the first Double Ninth Festival hosted by the queen. They rushed out to please the queen.

After listening to Cheng Yujin’s words, Mrs. Shu froze for a moment, and burst out laughing, “It is the concubine’s eyes that are too short. The queen is right, the wind cannot be long. Your majesty said not to be extravagant. . The queen ’s mother-in-law has a strong heart, and her concubine is narrow. ”

The concubine Shu really thought Cheng Yujin was too narrow. Cheng Yujin has now become a queen, favoring the harem, and her children are all under her knees. How can she still grasp the small complaints when she did not leave the cabinet? Cai Guogong’s move was too affectionate. They not only looked down on the queen, but also on your majesty.

When His Majesty was still a prince, he was always talking about matters in the public, and he never felt sorry for Cai Guogong and Zhai Yanlin. Zhai Yanlin had only thought about it, but he hadn’t had time to cross the Ming Road yet. The Huo family of Jingyong Hou House was indeed actually married to the empress and later retreated. This matter is well known in Beijing, and no one dared mention it until Xiandi gave the marriage. But even so, when His Majesty was in the Donggong auxiliary government, he did not withhold Jingyonghou because of private grievances.

Everyone was originally worried that after His Majesty took power, he would settle the accounts after the fall. However, one month later, the imperial court had functioned normally, and the emperor did not anger anyone because of any personal grievances. The emperor fulfilled his promise when he ascended the throne, and he only looked at talents without asking the way. From the beginning of the Yuanxi year, in the past, a single write-off, everyone only had to worry about doing business, except for those who violated the law and the adulterer, and the other officials did not ask about the past and did not turn over the old accounts. Even if he was a student of Yang Fucheng, as long as he has the ability and performance, he is willing to continue to shine for the Yuanxi Dynasty, and the emperor has never blamed.

The emperor’s statement undoubtedly caused an uproar in the court. This is the empathy of the emperor. Because of the situation, he had to resign and befriend Yang Fucheng’s courtiers. He felt more at ease and sincerely convinced the new emperor and tried his best.

The emperor and the Yang family had a **** enmity, and they could still let go of the Yang family’s disciples, and they were eclectic in their talents. What’s more, there was such a little bit of entangled former rivals? Even Cheng Yujin, who is really careful, revengeful, and obligatory, must not remember Zhai Yanlin.

Cai Guogong’s government was so hurriedly pleased, Cheng Yujin looked embarrassed.

Mrs. Shu laughed and mocked herself as the villain’s heart, which was inferior to Cheng Yujin and Li Chengjing. No wonder, in the end, the two of them won the final victory and became the emperor of the new dynasty.

Cheng Yujin asked, “Is the concubine relocating recently?

“No, the concubine is all right. Thank you, the queen.” Concubine Shu was upgraded from Concubine to Concubine, and her residence naturally had to be moved to the clean Xisan Temple to give away the Six East and West Offices to the new concubine. Although the new emperor could not use these palaces, as the concubine of the former dynasty, the concubine Shu had to make a gesture.

Cheng Yujin heard Mrs. Shu saying everything was ok, nodded with a smile. She had no abnormalities, and then naturally asked, “What about Princess Yang? Has the consciousness recovered recently?”

Concubine Yang … The concubine’s smile unconsciously converged. This surname, this generation, hardly thinks of others in the harem.

Toffee Yang was the former queen, Yang Miao. The second son, Li Chengjun, was blinded by the demon path and secretly paid tribute to the first emperor the poisonous panacea, causing the first emperor to die. The demon Dao Chong was thrown into the prison, without slavery, and all his family property was confiscated and exiled for three thousand miles. Li Chengjun was also deprived of the title of Shouwang, demoted to civilian, and imprisoned for life.

As for Li Chengjun’s accusation of the Prince’s rebellion, he was also charged with a defamation charge. The reason is very simple. Changsheng Dan was made for the scattered people. The devotion to the emperor was taken by Li Chengjun himself. Taking the medicine is also decided by the emperor. How can Li Chengjing know in advance that the Changsheng Dan is poisonous? How could he know that the emperor really ate.

What happened afterwards was that Li Chengjing’s machine became faster and deeper. After learning that the emperor had an accident, he immediately asked the **** to replace another longevity pill to be destroyed, and he also laid out a royal forest army outside the Qianqing palace. As for the cabinet cabinet veterans and others, Li Chengjing never worried. As he said, the people who win the hearts win the world. He has done so many things under the eyes of the ministers, but the second prince first relied on the Yang family not to ask about the world, and then colluded with the Taoist priests.

It’s really unpredictable to say that things happened in the world. When Dou Xiyin was defeated by Yang’s family, he was condemned by the first emperor to conquer his concubine, and he lived in his wife’s palace with his wife and concubine. At that time, there were still people who laughed at Shou Wang Dadu and took over his ex-wife, but it didn’t take long for Li Chengjun to be cut to civilians for the crime of murdering the emperor, and he was even equal to the title of Dou Xiyin.

Now the two are confined in a small yard, and they have become troubled couples. After the disaster committed by Li Chengjun was revealed, Queen Yang was dizzy. After waking up, the second prince has been banned, and she herself has been abolished as the queen. Since then, Yang Miao’s consciousness is not normal, and does not communicate with outsiders, just holding his knees and air to himself.

Although Li Chengjing abolished the position of Queen Yang Miao, she left her life. After Li Chengjing took Yang Miao’s throne, he didn’t say why she was demoted, and everyone had no choice but to refer to “Princess Yang”. Since Yang Miao is still the concubine of Emperor Xiandi, then this time the concubine of Emperor Xiandi moved to the palace, she must also be listed.

Mrs. Shu didn’t want to mention this person, she had to vaguely say, “The concubine was not close to Mrs. Yang, and she didn’t know her status. She wanted to come to Her Majesty and the Queen’s mercy. The Emperor’s grace is magnificent. Yang’s illness should be better.

Cheng Yujin nodded his head and said shallowly, “There will be Princess Lao Shu looking after one or two, and this palace will thank Mrs. Shu first.”

Mrs. Shu quickly said she did not dare. She understood in her heart that the queen didn’t want Yang Miao’s life, but she didn’t want Yang Miao to provoke any more trouble. An quietly died in the cold palace, probably Yang Miao’s best ending.

During the Jianwu years, the Yang Family, with its unique scenery and righteousness, collapsed completely. Yang Fucheng was deprived of his merits, and was not allowed to enter the official rank within three generations. Yang Xiaoyu died horribly. The second prince was imprisoned. The empress Yang was abolished. Even the only left queen, the Yang Empress, failed to end her life.

After Li Chengjing ascended the throne, Dang even ordered to re-examine the case of the destruction of the door of Qing Xuan Guan in the eighth year of Jianwu. Finally, it was found that the torrents were not accidental, but someone upstream blew up the dam to release water; Qingxuanguan’s life is not a natural disaster, but was killed by others.

From the beginning, it was a conspiracy against the crown prince. The embassy behind him was Yang Empress Yang and Chief Assistant Yang Fucheng.

The murder of the crown prince was also suspected of murdering the former queen Chung. Yang Fucheng was re-added to blame. Unfortunately, before the arrival of the poisonous wine, he died of illness due to poor conditions. The Empress Yang was also deprived of her position and was not allowed to bury the emperor’s mausoleum.

It ’s not that he ’s dead. His sins can be cancelled in one stroke. After the death of Empress Dowager Yang, she still paid a price for her atrocities when she was young. Yang Fucheng has been in control of the dynasty for more than 20 years and has accumulated too much money. However, when he was dying, the copper plates around him were not enough.

Princess Kang, formerly the Queen Chung, was respected as the Queen Mother by Li Chengjing. Then the Queen Mother Zhong has passed away for many years, and now in the harem, only the queen alone is in charge.

In fact, no one but the queen. This was the envy of the concubine. The emperor held the post-book ceremony on the same day as the ceremony. After the full set of etiquettes, the young emperor of Daqi said to the 100 officials of the whole dynasty, the founding ancestors set the rules, and the man could not accept the concubine for forty sons. He has the eldest son at twenty-two this year, so he will never be concubine . In the future, officials inside and outside of the country will not be able to mention things such as filling the harem and adding talent to the draft.

The emperor’s goal was to export a word, and he said it at the enthronement ceremony. Who dares to object? After that, no one mentioned the draft. General Dong of the Five Military Camp was also very shameless, and his daughter was banned in vain. I heard that in the past few days, Zhang Luo has chosen to give son-in-law to Zhang Dong.

The emperor dared to speak in front of the world, showing how much confidence and determination he had. Concubine Shu was very envious of Cheng Yujin. However, Concubine Shu did not envy Cheng Yujin as a queen, nor did she envy Cheng Yujin for having a pair of lovely children, but for Li Chengjing’s intentions for her. Fortunately, her husband can treat him like this. Not to mention that Cheng Yujin is a queen, even if she is just an ordinary woman, all the people in the world are women, and she is willing to trade Cheng Yujin for life.

It’s a pity that I can’t get it in exchange, nor can I envy it.

At this time, some Gong people came in to report. The court lady said hello to Cheng Yujin and Tofu Shu, and then dropped her hand to the side and stopped talking. Mrs. Shu was clear, she just moved, and there was still something in the palace.

Cheng Yujin politely asked the forsythia to send Mrs. Shu out. When Mrs. Shu went out, she faintly heard that the name “Mrs. Jingyong Hou” was mentioned.

Mrs. Jing Yonghou. Mrs. Shu knew that she had to talk to her conveniently because it was Cheng Yumo’s business. Mrs. Shu had heard from her mother ’s family in her early years that there were a pair of twin sisters in Yichun Houfu, her sister was smart and dignified, and her sister was lively and casual. younger sister.

So, in the end, the younger sister replaced the older sister and married. Sister Xiao Xiang, brother-in-law, was already enough to be criticized. If Cheng Yumo got married and He Meimei, it would have been a problem. I heard that Cheng Yumo and her mother-in-law Huo Xueshi had a little quarrel in three days and a big quarrel in five days.

Huo Changyuan exhibited such a wife and mother, and later he would suffer. Probably because of unsatisfactory family affairs, which contained too much energy, Huo Changyuan had no progress in his official career, and even made several mistakes due to negligence.

A court official was like him, his home was notoriously restless, and there was not much merit in the officialdom, and the career was basically over. I heard that the Marquis of Jingyong is the last generation in his generation. Later, I do n’t know if there is such a person as Jingyonghou in the capital.

On the contrary, my sister stayed at home for a year or two after being retired, and finally married the prince who lived with the Cheng family, which is now His Majesty. It’s hard to say what happened in life.

After the lady helped Mrs. Lady back to the palace, after listening to Mrs. Lady’s feelings about the encounter between the sisters, the lady said, “Mother Toffee, did you say that it was just because your sister retired from home that she couldn’t talk about family affairs, and she picked up the big leak? After all, there have been rumors in private that the prince married Cheng ’s daughter in the past because he agreed to the conditions of Old Master Hou Cheng. The old master Hou Cheng relied on the grace of life-saving and asked for the reward, so that the prince would marry Cheng ’s daughter in return. The lady is married, and only the eldest lady is left at home, so …

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment. After reflecting the meaning in the words of the palace ladies, she was very disdainful. , But whoever dared to slam the next sentence in Manchu dynasty? Wuhe and Neigang, humble and opinionated, this master has great patience. If it was not his own willingness, who could force him to marry a woman she did n’t like? Do n’t say Cheng Lao Hou Ye, not even the first emperor. Look at the rarity of your majesty to the queen, and say that it was not the one he had captured, and the first person in this palace did not believe it. ”

The maiden thought about it and was easily persuaded. Whether it was during the East Palace or after the throne, the performances of His Majesty are indeed very silver-free.

Mrs. Shu said for a while, sighing with pity on her face, and sighing slowly. “Whose word came out, this palace can probably guess. Poor, you can only see what others have received in your life, but you don’t want to Thinking about what others have paid. When the sister did not divorce, she resented her sister for replacing her marriage; when she married as she wished, she made a mess of her life. At this time, she saw that her sister was married again to a good family. Instead, he complained about his grandfather’s partiality and said that her sister picked up her leak. Oh, pitiful, ridiculous, and sad. ”

The maiden was silent, and Mrs. Shu fanned herself, seemingly pointing out, “Although this palace does not know about the Cheng family, this palace speculates that if there was no divorce in that year, the older sister would marry on schedule, and then The queen prince will not have anything to do with her sister. It is not that he picked up Tianda ’s leak, but that position, which was originally reserved for only one person. ”

Princess Tofu sighed for a while, and suddenly laughed, “What does this have to do with this palace. What about the new dynasty, what was this palace’s former concubine to do. What will happen to your majesty and the queen in the future.”

“Yes, the slave-servant obeyed.”

As the night grew deeper, the lights in the Forbidden City lit up. After Li Chengjing teased the children in the Kunning Palace and weighed the two children separately, Li Chengjing said, “The bright moon is beautiful again, and it is really the bright moon of my Daqi. But Li Mingqian is also fat too fast, he should pay attention to the image in the future, but Can’t eat fat. ”

Cheng Yujin glared at him when he heard this, “Who said he is fat? This is clearly normal and round.”

“Round?” Li Chengjing smiled while pinching the flesh on his son’s arm. “You look at his arm, is this still normal?”

Li Chengjing defeated in Cheng Yujin’s eyes and smiled, “Okay, I won’t say it. You usually seem to be quite reasonable. Why are there no bottom lines for the two children?”

Cheng Yujin snorted softly and snatched the child in his hand. “You’re still abandoning it. After running through the crowd, I went back to my palace if I couldn’t get used to it.”

Li Chengjing smiled and quickly reached out to protect Cheng Yujin. “He is really heavy. You can’t hold it carefully. Okay, how can I say you, don’t be angry.”

The child was so weak that he was sleepy after a while. Li Chengjing asked the court lady to take the little prince and the little princess back to bed separately, without the hindering children, Li Chengjing was finally able to get along with Cheng Yujin alone.

He retired from the palace and sat in front of the window with Cheng Yujin. He personally filled her with a cup and said, “Chongyang is approaching, ascending to the disease. We may not be able to reach the height this year. Let’s drink a glass of chrysanthemum wine for the time being.

The wine in the cup is orange-red, and it is extremely beautiful when poured into the white jade cup. Cheng Yujin took a tentative sip and found that it was not spicy. He slowly drank “This wine is sweet and not choking at all.”

Li Chengjing poured another glass for her, and filled herself with another, saying, “Don’t drink it too quickly. Although it is a flower wine, it has a sweet taste, but the stamina is not small. Drinking too fast, you should be dizzy after a while.”

At this time, Cheng Yujin had already drank another half a glass. She looked down and said helplessly, “The stamina is not small, why didn’t you say it before? You have to watch me finish drinking before telling me?”

Li Chengjing rubbed the wine cup and raised his eyebrows with a smile, “Maybe I haven’t seen you sprinkled with wine for a long time, and I miss it a little.”

“Don’t frame it, when did I get drunk?”

“Don’t admit it yet? You were drunk before, but that was so brazen and so courageous, it was extremely presumptuous towards me.”

Cheng Yujin propped up on the small table and found that the wine was really fast. She was now dazed. Cheng Yujin turned his head sideways and smiled and asked, “How can Your Highness know that it is drunk?”

She called His Highness, apparently already drunk. Li Chengjing nodded in coordination, saying “reasonable, it is likely that you are borrowing wine to be crazy, because you usually dare not.”

“So what did I do?”

“Move your feet, hold on to me, and intend to kiss me strongly.”

Come on less, not at all. Cheng Yujin smiled at him with a serious nonsense, and nodded, “That’s really wrong, Your Highness. Has it become?”

Li Chengjing paused briefly, shaking his head eloquently, “No.”

Cheng Yujin laughed, suddenly stood up, crossed the low table and leaned in front of his face, gently put a kiss “That is now.”

Cheng Yujin blushed after finishing, but she wanted to withdraw, but found that her waist had been buckled. Li Chengjing put her down with her backhand and said seriously, “You are wrong to kiss someone like this and teach you for your husband.”

Cheng Yujin’s face was reddening, and he thought that the person who was acting mad through wine was clearly his. Outside the window, the sky is airy, the sky is deep, and the stars are all over the sky. Cheng Yujin reflected the stars in front of him, and only one person could be seen in his eyes.

Her cheeks were blushing, and finally, she glared eccentrically at the people in front of her with a “a polite appearance, without the consciousness of being an elder.”

“Since I promise you an uncle, my uncle must of course answer your questions and teach you well. Learn well, and you will not be so perfunctory next time.”
