Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

"That's what Mrs. Li said!"

Zhu Youjian accepted it generously and was not angry at all because of Li Kangfei's instigation.

The smile on his face remains:

"The emperor's sister-in-law has suffered so much for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. I should pay a toast to the emperor's sister-in-law!"

Zhu Youjian stood up directly, raised his wine glass, and said to Zhang Yan:

"I still remember when my brother Shen Ke summoned me to the palace to prepare to take over the throne.

The emperor's sister-in-law said that palace food should not be eaten, so she asked me to prepare my own dry food..."

"Thinking about it today, there are not only a few people who have insight into the palace gates, but there is no one who has the emperor's wife in mind who has kept the country in her heart!"

Zhu Youjian slapped him in the face without hesitation:

"I was young at the time and didn't understand the emperor's sister-in-law's intentions.

Looking back today, I, as the emperor, was lucky enough to be able to sit firmly on the throne!

I was studying the day before yesterday, and I read that when Emperor Gaozu (Shizong Jiajing) succeeded to the throne, he had no support from his father and ancestors, and no brothers and sisters to help him.

This huge government and opposition parties all wanted to make Gaozu a puppet on strings.

How dangerous it was for Emperor Gaozu to succeed to the throne at a young age.

At that time, among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, who didn’t want to treat Gaozu as just a mechanical puppet and hand over all the power of the emperor!

Thinking about it this way, it will be even more difficult than when I succeeded to the throne.

Although I am young, I am fortunate to have the help of the emperor's sister-in-law, who has prevented me from many disasters!

Sister-in-law, you are very kind to me!

Not to mention toasting with a glass of wine today, it is also appropriate to lead the horse and kick the horse to the emperor's sister-in-law! "

Zhu Youjian directly pointed at Sang and scolded Huai.

Accusing Concubine Li Kang of being an elder, but not looking like an elder at all!

When Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, Queen Yi'an was only 21 years old. In later generations, women of this age were still going to school carefree~!

However, it was Zhang Yan, a little girl, who helped Chongzhen onto the dragon throne and stabilized the Ming Dynasty.

On the contrary, it was Concubine Li Kang who was sowing discord, but she didn't say a word at that time!

Zhu Youjian's words made Concubine Li Kang feel uncomfortable.

Zhu Youjian ignored him and picked up his wine glass:

"Sister-in-law, I really should respect you.

Over the years, I will always remember the help given by the royal sister-in-law to my heart.

I don't say it, not because I don't remember it, but because I keep it in my heart. "

Zhang Yan panicked and stood up quickly:

"As a family, whatever the two families say is their own business."

Zhu Youjian stopped talking and drank the drink first.

Zhang Yan also covered her face with her sleeves and finished her glass of wine.

After drinking with Zhang Yan, Zhu Youjian looked at Tianqi's Concubine Hui, Concubine Liang, and Concubine Rong.

He raised his glass and said:

"Three imperial sisters-in-law, the country is in such trouble, and we have offended so many people before!"

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

The three of them drank before Zhu Youjian toasted.

After the palace maid filled the bowl, Zhu Youjian looked at Zhou:

"Queen, you have been married for 17 years, and your hands have been spinning for the Ming Dynasty for 17 years.

I owe you too much.

I respect you! "

Zhu Youjian's words made Queen Zhou's eyes red, and all her grievances disappeared.

"Your Majesty is serious, state affairs are your and my family's affairs.

It is the hardship among the people, the shopkeeper, the hostess has to work hard for the family business.

Not to mention me, the queen.

Your Majesty is anxious, isn’t this something I should help you with?

This is all my concubine's business, and I don't deserve your Majesty's thanks. "

Zhu Youjian nodded, Queen Zhou lived up to her reputation as a wise queen.

He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

Mrs. Zhou also hurriedly drank it all in one gulp, and then said softly:

"Your Majesty, drink less. Drinking on an empty stomach is taboo."

Zhu Youjian smiled and ignored it. He picked up the wine glass and said to Concubine Liu, Concubine Fang, Concubine Shen and Concubine Lu:

"The country's affairs were very difficult in the past. Even though you were called a concubine and had enough food and clothing, you couldn't even compare to the middle-aged man's family.

This is my fault! "

After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp:

"Everything has passed today, I have set the standards for the expenses of everyone in the harem.

It was supposed to be tomorrow, so I had to wait and hear what I was going to say.

However, tomorrow is the big day and the affairs are busy, but I am afraid of forgetting.

Thinking about it carefully, it would be better to let you know now! "

Several people's eyes lit up.

He still keeps saying things that will not cause trouble to the country.

But in my heart, I wished that Zhu Youjian would quickly set his annual salary...

……

In fact, among Chongzhen's small harem, Emperor Chongzhen's favorite was Concubine Tian.

Even deeper than his feelings for the Queen.

After Tian Guifei became seriously ill, she selected two beautiful girls for Chongzhen - Lu and Chen.

The two of them have been in the palace for several years, but they have never been favored.

Chongzhen, who was devoted to government affairs, had little time to visit the harem since Concubine Tian died.

This is why no one in the harem will doubt Zhu Youjian after he takes over the identity of the original owner.

……

Zhu Youjian looked at the concubines left by Guangzong:

"Dear concubines, I have re-established the salary standards for you:

Except for one application in the palace, everything remains as usual, and your annual salary is increased to five thousand silver dollars. "

As soon as Zhu Youjian said this, Li Kangfei and others were overjoyed.

Since the country has become more and more difficult, their salary has long been cut off.

Over the years, I have relied on my early savings to survive.

However, Guangzong's total reign was less than a month... (Because he abolished various commercial taxes and distributed 200 million silver in salary within three days, Guangzong's evaluation was very high, and it was called "the ruling and opposition parties were moved" in history!)

They didn't have much money in their hands, and after so many years, they were even more strapped. When they saw Zhu Youjian had set an annual salary of five thousand silver dollars, everyone was overjoyed.

Zhu Youjian stopped several old concubines who wanted to express their gratitude.

It's just five people. In this era where filial piety is extremely important, even if he is dissatisfied with Concubine Li Kang...

For Gong Yonggu's sake, let's keep it...

Zhu Youjian said to the three concubines left by Emperor Tianqi:

"Dear sisters-in-law of the emperor, your salary will be the same as that of the concubine in the next year."

Concubine Hui and others were overjoyed when they saw that they also had an annual salary of five thousand silver dollars, and hurriedly thanked Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian looked at the selected servants Fan and Xue.

He said: "Your annual salary is set at one thousand silver dollars."

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!"

Fan and Xue hurriedly thanked him.

Choosing an attendant is almost the lowest level of concubine.

The harem of the Ming Dynasty was divided into: empress, imperial concubine, concubine, concubine, concubine, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, beauty, talented person, noble person, selected attendant, and lady.

The answers and constant presence of the Qing palace were only the titles of minor palace maids in the Ming Dynasty, not concubines.

Generally speaking, the salary of concubines in the Ming Dynasty was higher than that in the Qing Dynasty.

Of course, the number is not as exaggerated as that of the Qing Dynasty.

……

Fan and Xue were overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly.

Zhu Youjian waved his hand.

According to his intention, it was originally supposed to be set higher.

However, when I think about it, if it is set too high, future generations will inevitably be unable to sustain it.

He can't set it high and make it difficult for future generations!

After setting the salary standards for the concubines of the previous dynasty, Zhu Youjian reached out and hooked his hand.

Standing behind Zhu Youjian was a female historian named Han Cui'e.
