Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 269 The Hysterical Queen

Wude looked at the old monk and didn't know what to say. He closed his eyes again and recited the Buddhist scriptures. A piece of bamboo leaf fell on his head with the wind, one piece after another, and then a strong wind blew, and the clothes on Wude's body Moving with the wind, let out a decadent breath, and kowtowed three times in front of the Buddha vigorously.

"You are too angry." The old monk shook his head and sighed.

Wude crouched in front of the Buddha in pain and did not raise his head. His mind was full of the figures of Emperor Hongzhi and Tang Bohu, and the blood of Liaodong flowing into rivers...

Suddenly, I heard the laughter of several children. Zhu Yun came to worship the Buddha, and the children followed suit.

Seeing Zhu Yun, the old monk smiled and said, "Female benefactor, you are here again."

Zhu Yun nodded, kowtowed in front of the Buddha and then offered incense, silently chanting her wish.

"Girl, do you have an obsession in your heart?" The old monk has eyes that can see through people's hearts.

Zhu Yun nodded, did not look at the old monk, but turned around and took the children away again, and said to the children while walking, "Have you learned how to burn incense today?"

Facing the children, Zhu Yun showed a warm smile.

"En! We have learned it!" The children surrounded Zhu Yun and said loudly.

"Okay!" Zhu Yun said with the children: "Then let's go to learn the next task."

……

"Let it go, let it go!" The old monk said to Wude: "This girl was full of hostility when she came here for the first time, but now she is so satisfied. Sometimes people don't have to make so many choices. If you I really don’t know how to choose the matter in front of me, you might as well let go of this choice.”

Wude knew Zhu Yun, and Zhu Yun and Wude also knew each other, but seeing her clear eyes, Wude felt that the person in front of him was so strange, and Zhu Yun seemed to have been completely reborn.

"How did she do it?" Wude asked in a low voice.

"She didn't do anything, she just let go," said the old monk.

lay down?lay down!Wude thought in his heart and said: "But I can't let go now."

"It is said that the Buddhists cross the world of mortals." The old monk continued: "But how can one cross the world of mortals if you don't enter the world of mortals."

"The poor monk understands." Wude said.

On the second day, it was already the time to go to court, and Zhu Houzhao was still sleeping soundly. Liu Jin picked up a yellow silk and walked towards the court hall.

Liu Jin bowed to the officials and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is not feeling well today, so take a day off!"

Take a day off?The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were puzzled.

After speaking, Liu Jin took out Huang Juan and handed it to Li Dongyang, saying: "This is your majesty's leave note. Your majesty is not in good health and will not be able to go to court today. If you have something to report, you can pass the note to the supervisor of ceremonies. Wait for your majesty to recover. It's better, the Supervisor of Rituals will show it to His Majesty."

……

The court gave up early, and all the officials dispersed one after another. Yang Tinghe saw Li Dongyang in doubt and said, "Your Majesty's handwriting becomes more and more familiar."

Li Dongyang smiled wryly...

There was endless chatter in the court, and the folks also began to talk about the Empress Dowager's pregnancy. There were always a few people citing classics and telling stories from the past.

A scholar said: "In the Spring and Autumn Period of the Warring States Period, the Empress Dowager Miyue of the State of Qin supported the mighty Qin State! She is a girl."

Another scholar said: "Su Shi said back then, how can a mortal man be a loving mother who can make a filial son a loyal minister! Do we still deny the filial piety of the new emperor today? As a son of man, now the son wants to support his relatives!"

Filial piety?Filial piety!
Several civil officials gathered together, discussing the restoration of the title of the Zhang family, but one civil official said: "Listen to me, everyone, there is a saying: filial piety, raising parents and doing benevolence, why don't we make this happen? It’s just to restore the title of the Zhang family. The empress dowager was almost broken in the Liaodong incident, and now that the first emperor has just passed away, we can’t chill the heart of the new emperor, nor can we chill the heart of the previous emperor.”

Everyone looked at each other in silence, yes, but it's just a title, it's just one more freelancer.

With the breakthrough of filial piety, the wind direction of the people gradually leaned towards the queen mother, and there were many figures among them, pushing public opinion to a climax step by step.

Even Li Dongyang was a little moved. Tang Bohu's method of instigating people's hearts is really good. How did he do it? But he also thought of Tangzhuang Academy, which is the most famous academy outside the capital city except for the Imperial Academy, and he finally understood!How many students are there in Tangzhuang Academy today.

These people are all scholars, and they are also the people with the most right to speak among the common people. Whether Tang Bohu built the academy to control this power was intentional or unintentional.

A few days later, Zhu Houzhao promulgated the imperial decree to restore the title of the Zhang family, and there was no sound in the court. Sitting in the harem, the queen mother's heart finally fell. Now she is relieved, and the painstaking efforts at the beginning can finally be rewarded today.

It was said to be five months, but in fact it was only less than three months pregnant. The queen mother felt a lot of emotion when she touched her belly that had not yet bulged. .

On the other side of the harem, the new queen is still alone. Although there are maids serving, it is very cold and quiet here. Her Majesty has never come to see her in the past few days when she married into the palace. Unconsciously, maybe people outside think that she has something. What a beautiful scene, in fact, how desolate I am now, only I know.

The emperor seemed to have forgotten himself, she couldn't figure out why?Where did I go wrong?Why did the emperor neglect her so much, looking at her exquisite face in the mirror, she wouldn't give up, why!
"I'm going to see the queen mother." The new queen said to the maid beside her.

"The Empress Dowager is not feeling well and doesn't want to see anyone." The maid said in a low voice.

Whoa!
Everything in front of the dressing table was overthrown by her. Empress Xia said angrily: "Why! Why do you all stop me? Your Majesty doesn't see me, and the Queen Mother doesn't see me! What do you think of me! Think of me as a Are the items thrown in the harem?"

"Queen calm down." The maid said coldly.

Empress Xia was very angry and aggrieved, how desolate and lonely the huge harem was, "I am the empress, I am the empress of the world, why should I live like this."

--------------------------split line
Empress Xia was venting her anger, but at the moment Zhu Houzhao and Yue'er were sitting quietly together, listening to lectures in Tangzhuang Academy calmly.

"Yue'er, aren't you sleepy?" Zhu Houzhao whispered to Yue'er beside him, feeling very sleepy.

Yue'er looked at a pile of complex function formulas on the blackboard and said, "Actually, when you understand these, these knowledge are actually quite interesting."

"Yue'er, let's go roast chicken wings later, okay?" Zhu Houzhao couldn't sit still on his butt.

Tang Yue nodded slightly.

Seeing the other party nodding, Zhu Houzhao became interested, and he felt that the distance between himself and Yue'er was getting closer.

　Yesterday, I discussed Xiao Zhang's old book "Qin Yu" with an editor-in-chief of the newspaper. People have very big opinions on the two characters Yushu and Meng Yi, as well as Queen Mother Xi and Guiguzi. I have been arguing with him for a long time about the relationship between history and novels. Before writing the book, Xiao Zhang would often write manuscripts for newspapers. At that time, he worked part-time to earn some pocket money. He was also my teacher on the road of creation. Sometimes I feel very emotional about those days.To talk about the character Yushu, we have to start with a TV series I watched when I was a child, and many people must have watched it.

　　Respect historical figures, this is what he said the most to me yesterday. I don’t know if Xiao Zhang exists in the small country of Tu’an, but there were indeed many small countries in the Xirong generation in that dynasty, as well as Guiguzi and Queen Mother of the West. I don’t use much ink on these two relatively ethereal characters. Many historians and scientists have different opinions on these two characters. The Warring States Period is a chess game played by Guiguzi alone. Then the Queen Mother of the West can be said to have traversed several centuries BC. From Zhou Tianzi to Han Wudi, there is also a period of nearly a thousand years. Who knows that the history of thousands of years ago is so complicated and confusing?Xiao Zhang just sighed with emotion, everyone, don't be offended.
