I'm a big dick

Chapter 526 The Marriage of King Xin

When the emperor came to Kunning Palace, he didn't let the palace people inform him. The palace people got used to it, bowed silently, and let the emperor go straight into the bedroom.

Empress Zhang Yan has a big belly, but she is more orthodox. If she knows that the emperor is coming, she will definitely come to greet him.

There is a regular consultation every ten days. The female doctor Yang Hanyi is a full-time doctor for the queen and other pregnant concubines, and reports to the emperor are all safe news.

Although the emperor had already made up his mind that the first priority was to establish the virtuous and talented, and not to focus on concubines, but no one told him this idea.

What's more, if the queen gave birth to a boy, it was completely uncertain whether he would meet the emperor's requirements when he grew up.Therefore, the emperor needless to say, and needless to say.

Walking into the palace, the emperor lightened his steps, and his majestic gaze had already given a clear signal to the palace people, telling them to keep silent.

After staying in the outer room for a while to dissipate the cold air on his body, the emperor took off his cloak and walked into the inner room.

The queen was taking a nap on the couch, covered by curtains, so she couldn't see clearly.Most of the heating in the palace has been changed to a fire wall kang, which is completely separated from the fire room, and there is no smell of fireworks.

Charcoal-burning pots are dangerous and costly, so I changed them to coal-burning directly, which saved me a lot of money this winter.

Not only the imperial palace is like this, but people in the capital are also popularizing the use of coal.Even if you don't burn the kang and the flue wall, an iron stove is much better than a charcoal brazier.

The emperor walked over lightly, opened the curtains lightly, saw that the queen was sleeping soundly, and didn't bother her, lay down next to her with her clothes closed, and closed her eyes.

There is a warm fragrance in the curtain, and the queen next to her breathes softly, and the surroundings are so quiet that one feels at ease.After just a while, the emperor fell into a daze and fell asleep.

I don't know how long he slept before the emperor woke up, covered with a quilt, and beside him was the smiling face of the empress.

"Baozhu." The emperor called softly, reaching out to touch the queen's face.

Zhang Yan held the emperor's hand and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, why didn't you let the palace servants inform you?"

The emperor pinched the queen's catkins, the baby-like feel was very comfortable, and said with a smile: "I told you that you don't need to be greeted with full ceremony, and you don't follow the order."

"Courtesy cannot be discarded." Zhang Yan paused for a moment, and added: "Your Majesty misses your concubines, how about a half-respect for your concubines in the future?"

The emperor knew that Zhang Yan didn't want to continue to contradict him, and it also put him in a good mood, so he agreed.

Lying down and gossiping for a while, Zhang Yan suddenly said: "His Royal Highness Xin Wang is getting older, Concubine Liu told the concubine a few days ago that it is time to choose a concubine for him."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then thought that it has been six years since the apocalypse, and according to history, Zhu Youjian should indeed accept the princess.Even if it is done now, it will be a lot late.

Concubine Liu is in charge of the empress dowager's seal, and empress Zhang Yan is the sister-in-law of the king of Xin.

Thinking of Zhu Youjian's marriage, the emperor frowned slightly, thinking of Empress Zhou of Chongzhen in history.

Empress Zhou seemed to be very wise in historical records, but her father was really unbearable, which suddenly made the emperor feel very awkward.

Empress Zhou's father, Zhou Kui, was originally a fortune teller on the streets of the capital.

But although his daughter is well educated and righteous, Zhou Kui is extremely stingy, short-sighted, and short-sighted.

In history, the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian was so poor that he had no choice but to order the relatives of the emperor and the princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to donate property as military expenses.

But Zhou Kui didn't give his daughter and son-in-law good looks at all, saying that the family had no extra money and was poorer than Emperor Chongzhen.

Queen Zhou knew that Zhou Kui kept money like her life, but she didn't expect to be so stingy, so she announced Zhou Kui into the palace and reprimanded her.Zhou Kui had no choice but to take out 5000 taels of silver to help pay.

Empress Zhou secretly sold gold and silver jewelry in exchange for 5000 taels of silver, which was enough for Zhou Kui to make up 1 taels, so as not to make other princes and ministers laugh.

But Zhou Kui received the money, deducted 2000 taels from it, and only donated 8000 taels.In other words, he only got 3000 taels in the end.

In order to muddle through, Zhou Kui also made the roof of his mansion dilapidated, and went up to court wearing patched clothes.But who doesn't know who, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty saw that the head of the country was still like this, and they all followed suit, and used a small amount of money to deal with Chongzhen.

When Li Zicheng entered Beijing, Zhou Kui also sacrificed the three princes (Prince, Yongwang, Dingwang) and the injured Princess Changping in exchange for his own glory and wealth.

However, Li Zicheng was also short of money. After a cruel "torture payment", Zhou Kui's wife and daughter-in-law hanged themselves to death, and his son was also tortured.Zhou Kui was almost beaten to death before he finally let go and handed over his secret possessions.

There are as many as more than 50 taels of silver alone, and there are "hundreds of thousands of precious coins".The family fortune was emptied, and Zhou Kui, an iron rooster, was so resentful that he quickly kicked his legs and burped, leaving only the infamy of shameless greed.

For Zhou Kui, money is everything to him.What country, what court, what daughter, what grandson, all can be discarded.

As for the emperor, how could such a shameless bastard give him a chance to rise to the top?

"Your Majesty—" Zhang Yan was a little puzzled. Why did the emperor frown and look displeased? Didn't he want to marry his brother?
The emperor's eyes rolled, he woke up from his thoughts, he let out a sigh, and said, "Youjian's marriage is not in a hurry, you are heavy, don't work too hard."

Zhang Yan blinked, feeling that the emperor didn't seem to be just worried about her working hard with her stomach full, but also seemed to have other thoughts about her brother's marriage.

The emperor didn't want to say more, and left the Kunning Palace because he still had government affairs to deal with.

The sky was gloomy when we came, but now there are scattered snowflakes.

The emperor's face was also quite gloomy, and he had already decided to intervene so that Zhu Youjian would not be exposed to such a shameless old man.

.........................
The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and the north wind is getting colder and colder.

Nuke, the patriarch of the Zarut tribe, was riding on the horse, looking up, the Guancheng in the distance had already appeared dimly, and his heart felt a little uneasy.

Lin Dan Khan sent troops to crusade against the Neikalkha Alliance, forcing the troops of the five alliances to withdraw halfway, and could not continue to join hands with the Ming army to attack Jiannu.

After the five troops returned quickly, even though they fought with all their strength, they still couldn't withstand the fierce attack of the Chahar tribe.

Although the clan was not killed, the five tribes of Neikha suffered many casualties, and the Chahar tribe robbed many tribesmen and a large number of livestock, which can be described as a great loss of strength.

Because of the weather and other reasons, the troops of the Chahar Department withdrew.However, how the Nekhka Union, which has suffered heavy losses, can survive this winter has become an imminent crisis.

The relationship between Nuke and the Ming army is not bad, and Man Gui and Ma Chengfei also agreed that Zalut's troops can enter the Ming army to take refuge in a critical moment.

But Nuke's trip was not just for the Zalut tribe, but also to gain respite for other tribes, or to get the Ming court to help them tide over the difficulties.
