Traveling through: The down-and-out beauty refuses to be cannon fodder

Yao Kui, Minister of Rites, Xue Yuan, Minister of Hubu, Cheng Xin, Minister of Military Affairs, Shang Ren, Minister of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War and Bachelor of Imperial Academy, and Ma Ang, Minister of Hubu, all found reasons to ask for official positions.

Zhu Jianshen refused all of them, and only agreed to Ma Ang's request to become an official.

Seeing this, the Marquis of Huichang felt his heart skip a beat, and tried again with a request to become an official, but Zhu Jianshen still refused.

For nearly a month, Zhu Jianshen spent every day in the noise.While comforting the important minister, he beat the speaker.

In the court hall, he was so angry that he cursed at Dong Min, Hu Shen and other officials: "Tang Taizong used Wang Gui and Wei Zheng, why should I use Shang Ren?! You keep impeaching, and you don't change after repeated admonitions. It's really hateful!"

In the end, he ordered people to arrest Dong Min, Hu Shen and other speech officials in the court hall and put them in prison.

But the matter was not over, and then another spokesman pleaded with Dong Min, Hu Shen and others.

Shang Ren himself also interceded for the arrested speech officer.

Zhu Jianshen finally said that Dong Min, Hu Shen and others deliberately disobeyed the issued orders and violated my will several times. They should have been severely punished and given a lighter punishment.

In order to appease the civil servants, Zhu Jianshen had to slap his face again—adding one deputy envoy and two judges of the Transshipment Supervision Department of the Huaihe River and Huaihe Rivers.It can be regarded as strengthening the supervision of Yanyin.

The reason is that Gaoming, the censor of the capital, said that the cunning gangsters in the capital used their power to force officials to supervise. Originally, [-] catties of salt could be brought out of [-] catties or even [-] catties of salt, which greatly damaged the salt industry. politics.

I didn't say this to Mingli, but everyone knew that the only cunning and cunning members of the capital who were able to overwhelm others with power like this were the Huichanghou's family.

At this point, the chaotic court calmed down.

The Marquis of Huichang was so angry that he cursed at the mansion: "I originally wanted to take advantage of this year's earthquake, comet, drought and other celestial events to wipe out the backbone of the Jiangnan faction, but who would have thought that not only would it not succeed, but we would also lose Ma Ang, the Minister of the Household Department! "

Sun Zan wiped his sweat from the side and said depressedly: "The salt administration has stopped at first, but finally there is a patch to strengthen it! It's a steal if it's not a loss!"

Huichang Hou's expression was uncertain: "Even if the child we raised, he kept turning his elbows when he became a sensible adult! Let's not fight for this moment's victory. In the palace, what happened to Concubine Xian?"

Sun Zan said with a smile on his face, "I have asked the medical lady to take a pulse secretly, and she is definitely pregnant. I will wait for the empress dowager Shengdan to announce it in public."

Huichang Hou murmured: "You must be careful with this baby. Our people should not act rashly, and let the people from Li Yongchang's side come forward, so as not to startle the snake."

Sun Zan replied respectfully: "Yes. My father is still wise. He has been recommended by Li Yongchang's adopted son, Li Tai, as the examiner for the Shuntian Prefecture Examination."

A faint smile appeared on the face of the Marquis of Huichang: "What is this? Let Li Tai join the cabinet, and we will be safe. At that time, there will be a prince in the palace, Li Yongchang in the court, Li Tai in the cabinet, and Li Tai in the cabinet. With the old man and Guo Deng, there is nothing to worry about."

Sun Zan condensed slightly: "There is also a lot of action at the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and Qian Xi keeps recruiting troops for the four guards of Tengxiang..."

The Marquis of Huichang took a sip of the cool tea: "He is a drop in the bucket. The 30th Regiment Battalion has a total of 4 officers and troops. The Tengxiang Four Guards have a total of [-] people. Zhu Yong will lead troops to Shaanxi to suppress the Fourth Rebellion. Pei Dang, the eunuch who is in charge of military affairs, is far behind Liu Yongcheng. As long as we hold the [-]th Regiment Battalion, we are not afraid of anything."

Sun Zan hesitated and said, "Will there be any trouble with Guo Deng? This time he has asked to be resigned several times."

Huichang Hou smiled and shook his head: "Guo Deng is a man of loyalty and has a deep friendship with this old man. He will not disobey this old man when he is with me for a day. The emperor also trusts him and will not let him go. Let him go Bar."

……

On October [-]th, the birthday of Empress Dowager Zhou, known as Empress Dowager Shengdan, was celebrated in the whole palace.

The feast place for the wives this time is arranged on the west side of the imperial palace, Chongzhi Hall in the pepper garden on the east coast of Zhonghai.

The Empress Dowager Zhou accepted the congratulations from her wives inside and outside with a smile, but her own daughter, Princess Chongqing, found out that the empress mother's smile didn't reach her eyes.

Since the weeping and remonstrance incident at Wenhuamen, although the emperor still went to Qingning Palace once every five days to pay his respects, he basically left after sitting down. , did not disappear, but showed signs of getting deeper and deeper.

The Empress Dowager Zhou could no longer influence Zhu Jianshen's decision on government affairs.

What made the Empress Dowager Zhou even more depressed was that the emperor favored Concubine Bai Xian. Judging from the current signs, if she stayed at home for more than three consecutive months, the probability of pregnancy was extremely high.

Empress Dowager Zhou felt like a stone was stuck in her heart.

Concubine Bai Xian leaned on the former elder Li Xian, if she gave birth to a prince, and the future prince ascended the throne, she would definitely not be close to her.

At that time, I can only be an empress dowager who looks noble but has no power at all!

What a shame!

If I had known this before, it would be better to let that Fang family girl conceive a dragon heir, at least she is a blood relative with herself, with the same interests and no ulterior motives.

Thinking of this, she wanted to use all means to get Bai's pregnancy.

But if the baby is conceived, if something happens to the emperor, the throne will be cheaper than King De, and what awaits him is only a glass of poisoned wine.

The emperor's son is not close to him, and the future prince will not be close to him either.Thinking of this, it was hard for the Empress Dowager Zhou to be really happy with her wives who were all congratulating her.

The princess of Chongqing had to serve the Queen Mother carefully.

When the banquet was over, Princess Chongqing said with a smile: "In order to congratulate the Empress Dowager, I specially prepared a program. Jian Ze also came up with an idea, and asked the Empress to move outside the hall to enjoy it."

The Empress Dowager Zhou laughed and said, "You monkey head, what kind of crazy idea did you come up with?"

It has to be said that the Empress Dowager Zhou was a little happy that her own children bothered to celebrate her own birthday, and went out holding the hand of Princess Chongqing.

The wives inside and outside all followed out.

A tall shelf has been set up in the Taiye pool, and there are several people in colorful clothes standing on the shelf.

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded.

The sky is blue and blue, and the blue water of the lake is crystal clear.The buildings on the other side of the lake are hidden among the green and yellow mixed and colorful trees, and the scenery is picturesque.

On the more eye-catching lake, there are already people flying in the air, rippling and flipping, as elegant as a fairy, as light as an elf, beautiful and thrilling.

The wives who were watching made a lot of screams, it was really thrilling!
Those dancers rely only on a section of crossbar tied by two ropes, but the crossbar is not always in their hands. Sometimes they rely on their companions hanging upside down on another crossbar to pull themselves when leaping over. hands.

The princess of Chongqing ignored the exclamation of the wives, but looked at the imperial chariot slowly approaching in the distance, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

When the imperial chariot stopped, it was the time when the screams of the wives reached their climax. (end of this chapter)
