The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 564
As soon as this decree came out, the officials were in an uproar.

There was a lot of noise in the morning the next day.

"Zhen Qingping is the concubine of the Zhen family. Duke Ding has just been imprisoned, and we haven't found out yet. How can he make his concubine the assistant Duke? This... This is too unruly!"

"That's right, although Zhen Qingping has a good reputation in Bingzhou, it's just a barren state, and it's far from the rest of the world. Is it too hasty to make him a minister?"

"He is only so old, and he has such a favor. If it is spread, it may be difficult to convince the public!"

"Please, Your Majesty, think twice—"

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Someone took the lead and knelt down, and soon there were knees on the ground.

Jun Rong sat on the dragon chair and watched coldly, "I have made up my mind, and there is no reason to change it."

"You say he is young, but he became a big official of the border at a young age. Half of the people here can't compare with him, right? During his tenure, the people of Bingzhou lived and worked in peace and contentment, and their lives became more and more prosperous. The tax revenue of Bingzhou also increased year by year. , These are all recorded in the book, you are not convinced?"

"This...but he is Duke Ding's concubine after all. According to Duke Ding's crimes, he will implicate the nine clans!"

"One person does things and one person is responsible. The crimes committed by Ding Guogong are borne by him alone. Zhen Qingping has never participated in it. Even when I was living among the people and was wanted everywhere, Zhen Qingping took me in. He has made great contributions to saving me and is full of talent. , can't you still be the Duke of Fuguo?"

"Before you accuse him, you might as well ask yourself, what were you doing when I was displaced?"

"I don't have time to argue with you for the time being, do you think I'm going to let you go?"

Jun Rong's indifferent voice fell down, and everyone immediately shut up.

The stains on their bodies haven't been washed away yet, if Jun Rong is determined to settle accounts after autumn, they really can't escape.

Today is different from the past, he is backed by the Empress Dowager of the Yun Kingdom, and that is the former regent, with one hundred thousand Xuanying troops in his hands, and one hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Yun Kingdom on the border, who would dare to provoke him?

Even King Ning has defected, who can they count on?

For a moment, everyone felt that the future was bleak, and they clamped their tails silently, not daring to say more.

"Since there are no objections, this matter is settled like this. When the Duke Fu enters the capital, I will personally march!"

……

Jun Rong was in the previous dynasty to discuss matters concerning the expedition, and Xiao Yu went to the queen mother's palace.

This time the queen mother and concubines put in a lot of effort, so they naturally came to visit and appease.

The queen mother knew that she was coming, so she called the concubines over early.

Therefore, when Xiao Yu arrived, there were already many people sitting inside.

"I came at the right time." Xiao Yu came with Ning Zhao and Hongyi, and the queen mother smiled when she saw her, "You can be regarded as coming back. During this period, the imperial concubine ran to the palace every day. Missing you every day."

Xiao Yu cupped his hands: "The empress dowager, the empress dowager is well."

"Excuse me, please sit down."

Her Majesty pointed to the vacant chair to the right.

Xiao Yu and Ning Zhao took their seats, and the imperial concubine Zhen Mu waved at Ning Zhao: "Come here and show me."

Ning Zhao glanced at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu looked at her encouragingly: "The concubine likes you, it's good for you to get closer as much as possible."

"I will never have a child in this life, and I have long loved Ning Zhao as my own daughter. After a few months, I will not be able to let go of my heart."

Ning Zhao's nose was sore, and when she walked over, Zhen Mu held her hand and looked at her, "I'm thinner, but I look more mature."

Zhen Mu sniffed.

"My lady..."

"Why, you broke up with Bengong just after you came back?"

Zhen Mu looked at her pretending to be angry.

Ning Zhao hurriedly changed her words, and patted the back of her hand comfortingly: "Don't be angry, Auntie, and Ning Zhao will come to accompany you more often when she has time."

"It's almost there."

Zhen Mu sighed, and looked at her with some sadness, "But you are not too young, and you will marry sooner or later, and then the chances of me seeing you will not be many."

Ning Zhao's smile faltered, "Ning Zhao doesn't want to marry so early, and will take care of my aunt for a few more years."

"Stupid words... keep procrastinating. It's hard to find someone when you get older." Although Zhen Mu liked what she said, she still didn't want her to waste her time.

"This is not a problem. I regard Ning Zhao as a brother and sister. I will definitely take care of her marriage." Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"That's good."

Zhen Mu took a deep look at her.

Xiao Yu glanced at the concubines present and saw that they were looking at him expectantly, so he stopped circling around and said directly: "Everyone contributed a lot to what happened yesterday, I will remember it, and I will not forget what I promised you. Understand."

"The first emperor passed away for many years, and kept you all in the deep palace. It's really not humane. When the war subsides, I will discuss with your majesty and let you go out of the palace to reunite with your family. If there are princes, they will live with the princes. When you go back to your hometown and leave the palace, you will also be given a sum of money as your future protection, and you can go wherever you want afterwards."

Xiao Yu paused for a while, then looked at the young concubines, and said softly: "Of course, if you want to remarry in the future, you can do it. Although the law can't be opened up so far, it will gradually improve. If you want to live in seclusion and get married after leaving the palace, His Majesty and I will support it."

"what?"

The concubines didn't expect such a thing to happen, they were shocked and ashamed for a while, but the queen mother gave her an extra look.

"His Royal Highness, you have a kind heart."
