I'm a big dick

Chapter 463 Empress Zhang Yan Becomes Ugly
I can flatten the Liao Dynasty in four years, and flatten the Liao Dynasty in five years, but if I want to transform the Ming Dynasty's political institutions, make them more comprehensive and more efficient, and move towards modernization, ten or twenty years may not be enough.

The court lady approached to serve tea, interrupting the emperor's thoughts.He couldn't help but smile, and turned his gaze back to Queen Zhang Yan's face.

Zhang Yan is knowledgeable and interesting, seeing the emperor in a daze, she didn't bother her. Seeing the emperor's gaze, she smiled slightly and said, "The concubine went to the Changchun Palace yesterday to see the two little princesses—"

In the middle of speaking, Zhang Yan couldn't hold back her smile, covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and kept laughing.

The emperor also laughed, and asked: "What new show do the two little girls have, which makes the queen laugh like this?"

Zhang Yan managed to hold back her laughter, breathed calmly, and said with a smile: "The parrot raised by the emperor gave it to Concubine Yu to relieve boredom? When the concubine went, the two little princesses were arguing with the bird. The bird She is so eloquent and sharp-toothed that the two little princesses can't speak to her."

Zhu Youxiao blinked his eyes, imagining that the little girl who just knew how to jump a word, arguing with a parrot who talked slyly, how could she take advantage of it, I was afraid that she would be so angry and anxious that she would not be able to jump a word, even wow Are you crying?

Hahahaha, as soon as he thought of the ridiculous picture, the emperor couldn't help laughing, and wanted to see the two little girls' deflated appearance.

Besides, let's just talk, what good can you get from arguing with the parrot repeater?Haven't you heard the joke about the courier being stunned by the birds in the house?
Seeing that the emperor was laughing happily and Zhang Yan had achieved his goal, she accompanied her with a smile on her face, stroking her swollen belly with her hand, with a happy and contented face.

After a while, the emperor stopped laughing, and followed Zhang Yan's movements, moving his eyes to the queen's belly.

"I'm going to have a prince next year!" Zhu Youxiao raised his eyes, looked at the queen and said with a smile: "The boy is more naughty than the girl, and he has more fun."

Zhang Yan giggled and said, "The emperor can still read faces? How do you know that the concubine gave birth to a girl?"

Zhu Youxiao touched his chin pretending to be profound, and said, "As the saying goes: a girl dresses up her mother. I think the queen is not as good-looking as before. Isn't she pregnant with a boy?"

Zhang Yan blinked her big eyes, frowned slightly, and said to herself, "Is it really ugly? I look in the mirror and feel the same way."

It was originally a joke, but Zhang Yan didn't expect it to be serious.A bad mood is not good for pregnant women.

The emperor laughed, and said: "The orb is still beautiful, I'm just teasing you. However, regarding the matter of giving birth to a boy, I have a golden mouth, and what I say is almost inseparable."

Although Zhang Yan was not completely relieved, her thoughts were distracted.As a queen, getting a son in one fell swoop is a big event for the whole world to celebrate. I was overjoyed, so I nodded with a smile, "The emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Sovereign, so naturally he can do what he says."

After a pause, Zhang Yan said with concern again: "The emperor is diligent in political affairs, and the country is thriving. But you should also pay more attention to your health and don't work too hard."

Zhu Youxiao smiled and bent his arms to show it. Although he couldn't see the muscles, he still felt very strong, at least he thought so.

"I am young and strong, and I am not tired of some political affairs."

Zhang Yan smiled, reached out to take an orange, peeled the skin with her own hands, and carefully removed the white silk on it before handing it to the emperor.

Zhu Youxiao took it with a smile, then separated it petal by petal, and fed it to the queen.

Zhang Yan's face was slightly red, she couldn't bear to be touched by the emperor's concern, she opened her warm and bright red mouth, ate a few petals, and then gave it to the emperor to eat.

The emperor stuffed the remaining orange into his mouth, and the juice flowed out from the corner of his mouth. The empress laughed and wiped it off with a silk handkerchief.

Zhang Yan is too orthodox. She grew up reading "Women's Commandments", and most women in that era were like this.Concubine Wang Liang and Concubine Duan Chun were all in the same style.

I can't say that I don't like it, but the emperor feels that he is not as relaxed and comfortable as being with Yuer, Li Chengcheng, and Fan Xiaohui.Of course, the emperor is very good to his women, although it is normal to be partial.

I am their everything, I am their heaven.Zhu Youxiao knew that whether it was a queen, a concubine, or a civil woman, the status of the man in the family was the same.

Therefore, for them, Zhu Youxiao has to live well.Although entering the palace, fine clothes and fine food are indispensable.But the deep palace is lonely and cold, and it is not much different from the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha.

Turning around, Zhu Youxiao saw Wang Tiqian.Lao Wang didn't dare to approach and disturb him, he was explaining something to a court lady.

Shrugging helplessly, Zhu Youxiao knew that there was another military report.This is a rule he established, no matter what time it is, it must be reported immediately without delay.

Zhang Yan also saw it, and said with a smile: "National affairs are the most important thing, and the concubine will send the emperor to the emperor."

"Exercise is also good for Baozhu's body." Zhu Youxiao stood up, stretched out his arms, let the queen hold them, and walked out slowly.

"The maidservant kowtows to the emperor, and the queen to a thousand years old." Wang Tiqian knelt down and kowtowed from a distance.

Zhang Yan nodded, and said: "My lord, please. Please take care of Qianqing Palace and serve the emperor well. Don't be tired until long live."

"Save it for your servant, don't worry about Qiantui." Wang Tiqian promised quickly, bowing and standing aside.

The emperor patted the queen's hand lightly, walked away, and said in his mouth: "Walk back, just in time to exercise."

"Yes, yes." Wang Tiqian gave another deep salute to the queen, and then followed the emperor with small steps.

The emperor didn't ask what military situation it was. If it was a secret performance, Wang Tigan would not dare to peek even if he had a hundred guts.

No matter how urgent the military situation is, there is no telegram or phone call, and there will be no delay in going to the Qianqing Palace to see it.

Liaodong's battle plan has been determined, there is no aggressive move, and there should be no big problem if we advance steadily and use strong firepower to kill and consume Jiannu.

The emperor just did his job well, mobilizing the largest number of ships to transport ammunition supplies, and the Weapons and Gunpowder Bureau also worked overtime to produce and manufacture.

According to the emperor's deduction on the sand table, the fighting strength of the Ming army became stronger and stronger, and it would become more and more difficult for Jiannu to support it.

When Jiannu was forced to rely on the city to hold on to his last breath, the Ping-Liao War was basically brought to an end.Self-sacrificing strengths, Jiannu who lost their advantage in field battles, are not invincible.

After returning to Qianqing Palace, after Zhu Youxiao sat down, Wang Tiqian presented the secret playing box.

With a glance, Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised that it was sent by Cao Zhenghua, the intelligence department of the Liaodong Army.

Cao Zhenghua contributed a lot to instigating the rebellion against Liu Xingzuo, and was promoted to Jinyiwei Qianhu in charge of the Liaodong Army's Intelligence Department.

The emperor tore off the seal, opened the box and took out the ensemble. When he opened it, a smile appeared on his face.

It's really like the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. The war has not yet come to fruition. Many people are already pessimistic and desperate, and they are not optimistic about the future of Jianu.

The emperor pondered for a moment, picked up a pen and laid out paper, and wrote the imperial criticism to Cao Zhenghua.

This is a good start, and it will be a big blow to the morale of the slaves.Recruiting surrender and accepting rebellion is an ancient and effective method.
