Chapter 434 The Queen in the Palace of Qinzheng

Song Qingyue looked at her second sister and Lu Wenyan who would become her second sister-in-law, smiled, and said, "Okay, let her in."

The two looked at Song Qingyue without knowing why, and Song Qingyue explained: "It's the one from the Ou family."

When Ou Nanguan entered the room, he saw that there were not only the concubine, but also two other wealthy girls in the room, and he was immediately at a loss.

"Liangyuan came to see this princess because of your brother's affairs? Look at you, you look weird, sit down."

Song Qingyue had no grievances with this person, so she didn't want to make things too difficult for her, so she asked Mo Ju to move in.

After thanking Ou Nan Guan, she sat down, lowered her head and looked listless. No one said anything, and she burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, I know His Highness listens to your Majesty the most, please help my elder brother! Please! I will do whatever you want me to do in the future!"

Song Qingyue laughed and said, "What can I let you do? What can you do?"

Seeing the concubine's undisguised contempt, Ou Nanguan's face turned pale.

The concubine is a single-family favorite, she doesn't need to fight for favor, let alone do anything to the women in the backyard.

In front of such a concubine, I don't even have any value to use!

Seeing her slowly clenching her hand at the corner of her clothes, Song Qingyue snorted indifferently: "Okay, crying is not an option. I heard that you went to the study to find His Highness on New Year's Eve?"

Ou Nanguan lowered his head, thinking of His Highness's indifferent eyes at that time, his heart shivered with cold.

"What did His Highness say at that time?"

Song Qingyue's soft tone made Ou Nanguan even more aggrieved.

She shook her head, her lips began to tremble, and then she burst into tears: "Your Highness didn't say anything, only that His Majesty is very angry, even if you want to intercede, you have to wait until His Majesty's anger subsides."

As she said sobbing and crying, Song Qingyue didn't express her position, let her cry for a while, and gradually calmed down, she said: "Okay, wipe your tears quickly. I'll help you persuade His Majesty, and I will save your brother's life." Life. I can't guarantee the rest."

Ou Nanguan was stopped crying by Song Qingyue's words, and raised his face to look at Song Qingyue in a daze, his eyes were full of shock.

With Wang Hao's tone, go directly to persuade His Majesty?Can you guarantee to save your brother's life? !
Song Qingyue smiled faintly: "Liangyuan, go back and rest."

Ou Nanguan seemed to be still in shock and couldn't recover.She stood up in a daze, saluted the princess stiffly, and then slowly backed out.

Seeing Ou Nanguan leaving, Lu Wenyan was dissatisfied immediately: "Why did your mother intercede for her brother? Her brother corrupted so much money, neglected his duty, and caused such a huge loss to the treasury. His Majesty should convict him of any crime." Yes! Why do you ask the empress to intercede for me? Besides... besides, is it appropriate for the empress to go directly to His Majesty?"

Song Qingyue suddenly laughed out loud: "How can I be so capable, His Majesty never planned to kill her brother."

Lu Wenyan was dumbfounded: "Your Majesty just lied to her!"

Song Qingyue nodded as a matter of course: "Otherwise, is it annoying to beg every other day? It would be great to sell her favor by the way!"

"Your Majesty is too bad!" Lu Wenyan felt that she needed to get to know Song Qingyue again.

Song Qingyue winked at her slyly: "Women are not bad and men don't love them, Wen Yan, don't be too nice to my second brother from now on."

"Nonsense, how can you be like this?" Lu Wenyan blushed, and when Song Erlang was mentioned, she immediately forgot about Ou Nanguan.

Song Yuxi agreed from the side: "Third sister is right! I didn't realize this until four or five years after I was married. If my second brother makes you unhappy, don't just bear it."

"Erlang won't treat me badly." Lu Wenyan was still basking in the sweetness of being engaged to her sweetheart.

Song Yuxi just wanted to refute, but was stopped by Song Qingyue. She laughed and teased Lu Wenyan: "Second sister is worrying too much, I think our second sister-in-law is not a person who will blindly tolerate, is she?"

"Ah! Your Majesty is playing tricks again!" Lu Wenyan got a big blush from being called the second sister-in-law again.
-
In the Qinzheng Hall of the palace, Zhang Guangjian took off his black hat and knelt down in front of the dragon case.

The content on the notebook really surprised the emperor.

In fact, the last time the emperor asked Zhang Guangjian how much money he could get for a sacrifice, it wasn't because he didn't trust him or deliberately made things difficult for him, but because the emperor was so angry at the burning of the shipyard that he didn't want to spend money and energy on the sacrifice for the time being. above.

I didn't expect to scare him like this. After all, he is still young and his skin is not yet thick.

The emperor was very happy in his heart, but his face was silent, he even snorted sullenly, threw the booklet back on the table heavily and said: "I appreciate you so much, you are so disappointing to me!"

Sweat dripped from Zhang Guangjian's forehead, and he kowtowed three times again, his forehead was swollen.

"I am ashamed of my trust in Your Majesty, and of my favor for Your Majesty! Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I have no complaints!" He said while crying, his appearance was really pitiful.

The emperor sighed pretentiously, frowned and thought for a long time before saying: "Forget it. You can't just blame you for such a thing. I also know that most of the time in the officialdom, I can't help myself. I am willing to give you another chance. But You have to remember, the opportunity I gave you is not to indulge you to continue doing this, but to see your change, the change of the Ministry of Rites. I hope you don't let me down again!"

Zhang Guangjian looked at the emperor in disbelief, then slammed his head on the ground again with a bang, and the emperor's brows trembled.

And when Zhang Guangjian raised his head, he had already started to cry bitterly, moved and guilty, and just wanted to repay Jun's kindness with all his heart.

"It's done, you can step down. This year's imperial examination should be properly arranged."

"Yes! The minister must do his best to restrain his subordinates!"

The emperor nodded and waved him out.

Zhang Guangjian stood up stiffly, bowed his waist, and walked backwards out of the courtyard of Qinzheng Palace. He raised his hand to touch the sweat on his forehead, and just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, a hand holding a cotton bag suddenly stretched out in front of him. Handkerchief.

He thought it was some colleague, took the veil and said, "Thank you."

When she looked up, she saw His Highness's sharp eyes, and she was so frightened that she almost exploded.

Li Zhao's face was full of smiles, and he was holding a powdered and jade-carved milk doll in his arms, followed by a stunning beauty full of extravagance.

The beauty nodded at him with a smile, and scared Zhang Guangjian back three steps in a row. He quickly lowered his head and greeted the two nobles: "His Royal Highness, Concubine Jin, I am very polite."

Li Zhao didn't say anything, just holding the child in one hand and Song Qingyue in the other, strode into the Hall of Qinzheng.

Zhang Guangjian breathed a sigh of relief again, and came back to his senses, only to find that His Royal Highness's handkerchief was still in his hand.

When Li Zhao entered the hall, he saw his father with his feet up on the small stool, holding a teacup and drinking tea with a smile on his face.

"Father is in a good mood?" Li Zhao asked with a smile.

The emperor casually tossed the book Zhang Guangjian had just given to Li Zhao. Li Zhao caught it neatly with one hand, shook it away and glanced at it, with one eyebrow raised high.

The emperor laughed: "Finally, I didn't miss it."

Li Zhao immediately flattered him and said, "Yes, the emperor has always had a bright eye." After saying that, he stuffed the child into the emperor's arms.

The emperor hugged his eldest grandson and shook his weight, nodded: "Not bad! I haven't seen you for a month, but I have gained a lot of weight! I didn't know that the eldest daughter-in-law is so good at raising children."

Song Qingyue immediately blessed her body and said: "Being a mother for the first time, how can you raise children. It was the two birth mothers given by the emperor back then who have unique skills."

Gee!

Look how comfortable that is!
"Father, Yue'er brought you a gift for entering the palace this time." Li Zhao smiled.

"Oh!" The emperor immediately took his feet off the small stool, sat up straight, and stared at the eldest daughter-in-law with a look of slander.

Although he didn't know what gift his son and daughter-in-law were going to give, the emperor saw that the eldest daughter-in-law took something from his small cross-body bag again, and the sky became clearer.
No matter what it is, the mood will be beautiful according to the conditioned reflex, is there any!

Song Qingyue handed over the blueprint to the emperor, and did not say what it was.

The emperor stood up eagerly and stretched out his hands to take the drawings handed over by his eldest daughter-in-law. He was really excited!

After observing for a while, the emperor raised his head and asked with bright eyes, "Is this for pumping water?"

Song Qingyue nodded with a smile, and by the way despised the steam engine craftsmen in the shipyard: "The steam engine is a power source that converts heat energy into kinetic energy, and it can do anything. You can think of using it to drive a ship, but why can't you think of using it to pump water?" What about it? It can be used for fire fighting and irrigation.”

The emperor looked at the blueprints, as if he had found a treasure, and while admiring, he smiled and let Song Qingyue sit down, and asked Wang Luen to hurry up and get some delicious snacks for the eldest daughter-in-law. Doesn’t Princess Jin like to eat snacks?

The Beiyang Navy plans to build eight steam warships in the first batch, two of which will be built at the Tianjin Shipyard; four will be built at the Shipyard of Laizhou Prefecture, Shandong, two of which have already been built and launched, and the other two are just short of the top. The deck was not sealed; the remaining two ships were built at the shipyard in Dengzhou, Shandong. One of them was launched for drills, and the other was almost finished.

In order to prevent the Japanese from going to these two places to burn the boat again, Song Qingyue took the time to draw a steam-powered water pump to facilitate timely fire fighting.

The emperor was happy for a while, and returned the blueprint to Li Zhao: "Let the Huoqiying Arsenal build it, or the Song family boy to make people feel at ease. Don't delay, build it right away!"

The implication is that the emperor no longer trusts anyone in the Ministry of Industry or the Ministry of War.

Li Zhao nodded in response, took the drawing back and stuffed it into his bosom.

Next, the father and son began to discuss how to set a trap for the four major families in Tianjin, preferably by copying a house in a legitimate way.

Song Qingyue didn't participate in the discussion of this kind of thing. She sat by the window with the child in her arms and ate snacks while helping the emperor sort out the nonsense about flattery and greetings.

As she was working, Song Qingyue felt her eyes were dizzy, she yawned and wanted to sleep, so she simply pushed the booklet forward, and the little kid stuffed it to Lin Wanfu, and she lay down on the low table and closed her eyes to rest.

So the emperor chatted with Li Zhao, and when he turned his head, he saw his daughter-in-law lying on the Arhat bed by the window of Qinzheng Hall, sleeping soundly!
Li Zhao: Hehe, my wife is really cute.

Emperor: ...I have never seen a courtier with such fat courage dare to go to bed while I am working hard!
That's it.

The emperor signaled Eunuch Wang to remove the low table on Arhat's bed, and asked Lin Wanfu and another apprentice to move a screen.

Since she wants to sleep, let her sleep comfortably.

While moving the screen, Eunuch Wang was still thinking, this Princess Jin is really amazing.Logically, the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, and the same is true here, no concubine in the harem can enter the Palace of Qinzheng, not even the queen or queen mother.

Concubine Shun, who was the most beloved in the past, has fallen out of favor now.

After she entered Qinzheng Hall once a few months ago, His Majesty never visited her palace again.

But Jin Wangfei is different. Both His Majesty and Jin Wang took the initiative to ask her for advice.

Of course, the princess does not have any decision-making power, but the emperor and His Royal Highness King Jin are willing to listen to her!

This concubine is also very powerful, she doesn't seek profit for herself, and secondly, she doesn't seek profit for her mother's family. What she says and what she does is all for the sake of the court, for the sake of the family and the world, and it is also good for the emperor.

Why would the emperor not want to listen?
So distracted and cursing, I almost didn't hear the emperor calling me.

"Wang Luen!"

"The slave is here!"

Eunuch Wang came back to his senses and hurriedly responded.

The emperor gave him a dissatisfied look, and said, "Call me Song Xiaoer, Xu Youzhong, Liang Zhengxiang, and old man Lu."

Several important ministers arrived soon.

The emperor first explained the matter of the water pump to Song Chenxu who was in charge of the firearms camp arsenal, and asked old man Lu to suspend the budget approval process.

Mr. Lu wanted to refute, and wanted to say that we must follow the rules and regulations, but the emperor stopped him with a sentence: "Special matters! Don't be an example. If I have another boat and let the Japanese burn it, I will ask you to pay!"

Master Lu pursed his mouth and immediately stopped talking.

The Lu family is poor, not to mention the entire battleship, he can't even pay for an anchor.

After explaining this matter, he discussed with Xu Youzhong and Liang Zhengxiang how to deal with the Japanese pirates.He planned to let Li Zhao act as the captain of the Beiyang Navy for a while.

If you want to say who has the most experience in naval warfare between North Korea and China, it must be Li Zhao.

If the Japanese pirates dare to come, let Li Zhao go to practice first, in order to prepare for the indemnity with their famous generals when they attack Japanese Island in the future.

As for Ou Shaofeng, he will be detained for another period of time, and he will be released after he has had enough lessons.

The emperor himself is a workaholic, and his courtiers are now working overtime almost every day, even at night.

When the emperor and his ministers discussed something, they would forget the time. It was already dark, and the ministers were already hungry. Unfortunately, the emperor didn't say they were hungry, so they dared not mention it.

Song Qingyue ate a lot of snacks like pea yellow, canned fruit, melon seeds, peanuts, and soufflé, and she wasn't hungry at all.

When the sun was setting, the emperor's stomach growled first.

As expected of father and son, Li Zhao's stomach growled loudly.

People who practice martial arts have muscles all over their bodies, which consume a lot of energy and make them feel flustered when they are hungry.

These two people were also thick-skinned, and they didn't feel disrespectful at all. They asked Eunuch Wang to bring in the vegetables and rice with normal expressions, and let everyone eat here.

Song Qingyue woke up early, and started to help the emperor pick up nonsense excerpts again out of boredom.I heard that the workaholic father and son wanted to have lunch with the ministers here.Seeing what the emperor meant, she had to continue to work overtime at night after eating the box lunch. She raised one eyebrow high, thinking that Li Zhaohe and the emperor would not forget herself, right?

She's still here!
