On how to make the big cat sleep obediently [Time Travel]

Generally, before the new emperor ascends the throne, because of the great honor of the old emperor, the enthronement ceremony is usually kept simple, let alone singing music. This was the case when Chengdi Liu Xin ascended the throne, and it was the same when the young emperor succeeded to the throne. But when it comes to Liu Yu, there are no such taboos. .

Although Liu Quan abdicated due to illness, he was still alive after all, so there was no need to shy away from the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, and it was held unprecedentedly grand.

As for the fact that the young emperor had vowed to marry the first emperor and keep his filial piety for three years, no one mentioned it. Everyone was waiting for the new emperor to fill the harem and give birth to an heir as soon as possible. They didn't expect Liu Yu to live alone as a vegetarian.

The new emperor is Chengdi's younger brother, not his son. Earlier, Prince Yu served the emperor's brother in plain clothes for 27 days, but now he has already taken off his clothes, so there is no need to do so many times.

However, the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor was truly unprecedented, because he appointed a male empress when he sacrificed to heaven.

This male queen is none other than Jian Xiaonian, the legendary doctor surnamed Jian who cured the Holy Lord's nightmare.

Minister Gu Ming, who had known about this in advance, pretended to be deaf and dumb, showing no surprise at all, and remained calm and composed.

Their calm attitude made other courtiers even doubt their own ears, thinking that the imperial edict heard was just an illusion, and His Majesty had not actually conferred a man as queen.

But the person who appeared in men's court clothes and stood side by side with His Majesty was clearly a man with a dignified temperament, and they couldn't even believe it with their eyes.

At the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, no one dared to voice doubts, but after offering sacrifices to heaven, some people couldn't hold back, but they only dared to discuss in private.

If Emperor Cheng or Emperor Shao had done such shocking things at this time, courtiers would have written letters to persuade them.

But right now this matter is an edict issued by Liu Yu, and the voice of open opposition is almost inaudible-because everyone knows that the former Prince Yu was someone who could not be easily handled by the late emperor and the empress dowager, so how could he allow others to do so? Point fingers in front of him.

However, some people still hindered the ancestors' etiquette, so they first secretly approached Cai Peng, the minister, and said that he hoped that he would come forward and call a group of ministers to persuade His Majesty.

The astronomical offering after Liu Yuli was written by Cai Peng himself. He had already seen it, how could he go to this muddy water, so he said to all the visitors: "Everyone knows what the harem of Emperor Li and Emperor Cheng was like, but No one will comment... In the end, this is His Majesty's private matter, and no one else has the right to intervene."

Emperor Li was cruel and murderous, how many women died young, even Cai Peng's beloved daughter was buried in Emperor Li's mansion, and he was almost killed, no one dared to say a word for Lord Cai Words, say a word for those poor women;

As for the time of Emperor Cheng, the relatives of the Xu family were the dominant ones, and they were the only ones in the court, and the Empress Dowager Xu controlled the harem. Even the concubine Jiang from the Jiang family, the grandfather of Prince Yu, was overwhelmed, and no one was seen. Dare to touch the edge of the Xu family.

At that time, some people wisely protected themselves, sought advantages and avoided disadvantages, saying that this was the emperor's family business, and outsiders had no right to comment.

Now that His Majesty is neither cruel nor perverse, nor does he allow his relatives to intervene in politics and harm the country, it seems a little untenable for these courtiers to speak up again.

If you really have such backbone, why did you go long ago, and now you come here sneakily and hem and haw, nothing more than worrying that His Majesty will leave a stain on the history books, and these people will also leave a reputation of flattery and inaction.

Only true straight ministers dared to speak out to death. Unfortunately, these pure ministers had gone on and on and lost their lives during the reign of Emperor Li. Now most people are naturally hesitant when they see that their wealth and lives are involved.

Originally, for the sake of his son, Liu Xin purged the imperial court by rebelling against the king, and demoted and eliminated a group of meddling people who were used to biting words and not doing practical things, so that the young emperor would not be framed by people's words.

It's a pity that his hard work failed to help the young emperor, but gave Liu Yu some peace.

Those people didn't dare to yell loudly at first, and they wanted to let Shang Shuling and other important officials take the lead. Now they are so softly stabbed by Lord Cai and Lord Ding, they are ashamed, and it is difficult to have the courage to speak up.

So when the male queen entered the harem, no one wrote a letter to persuade the new emperor, which really saved Liu Yu a lot of heart.

It was Xiao Nian who had just entered the palace who really felt the difficulty.

……

The Jizhou Imperial Palace has experienced countless emperors, and has been repaired and expanded several times. Today's scale and shape are by no means comparable to those of other palaces.

In the past, Empress Dowager Xu lived in Ci'an Palace, which was also the bedroom where she lived as a queen in her early years. It was the largest and most luxurious palace in the harem.

Mrs. Xu has gone to meet Emperor Jing now, so her bedroom is naturally vacant. Later, Mrs. Xu, who was named a concubine, lives in it. Before the young little queen can be alone, she will manage the affairs of the harem for the young emperor. .

It's just that at the same time that the young emperor moved, this useless concubine Xu was sent to the royal temple to practice together with the other concubines of the late emperor, and went to pray for the late emperor, so Ci'an Palace was vacated again.

In fact, Ci'an is not the only palace that is vacated in the palace.

The young emperor's concubines left the palace with him, and the only concubine also went to the temple. Now Xiaonian is the only one in the new emperor's harem. It seems that there are many choices, but when you think about it carefully, none of them are very suitable.

There is no precedent to follow in the previous dynasty without a male queen. Although Master Cai suggested to arrange according to the ancestral system, Liu Yu did not intend to do so.

"Jane will live with me in the Tai Chi Hall first, and it won't be too late to move in after the Yanfu Palace is repaired."

The so-called Yanfu Palace is actually the reconstruction of the Lizheng Palace which is the closest to the Taiji Hall. Originally, Liu Yu wanted to call it Yannian Palace, so it should be named after Xiaonian, but because Xiaonian himself did not allow it, he changed it to Call it Yanfu.

Master Cai has followed His Majesty's wishes in the matter of becoming a queen, so there is no need to argue with the Holy Majesty over trivial matters at this time. Now that Jizhou is in a state of waste, there are more important things waiting for His Majesty and their courtiers to do.

As for where the male empress wants to live and how many palaces she wants to occupy, Cai Peng doesn't pay attention. Anyway, the palace is very empty now, just let His Majesty and him be happy.

Xiaonian lived with Liu Yu when he was from Prince Yu's mansion, even when they were outside, they slept together, so they didn't feel any discomfort.

The palace in the palace is nothing more than a bigger yard, a bigger room, a bigger bed, and more luxurious furnishings. Apart from that, there is really nothing worth not getting used to.

Based on Xiaonian's understanding of Liu Yu, he even knew that the restoration of the Lizheng Palace into the Yanfu Palace was simply a cover used by the new emperor to prevaricate the courtiers. He had no intention of living separately from Xiaonian from the beginning, so the Yanfu Palace The Queen's bedroom is an illusion.

The repairs of the underground passage and the repairs on the ground are carried out simultaneously, in case of emergency.

In fact, in order for Xiaonian to be able to conduct his own research in the palace, the Yanfu Palace appears to be the bedroom of the male empress, but in fact it is completely renovated according to the original situation of the Wanfengyuan.

The main hall is used as Xiaonian's medicine shed, study and private storage, and the front and rear yards are used as nurseries, where herbs can be planted at any time. Liu Yu also specially ordered people to build a warm pond for Xiaonian's winter use.

Although there are no women in His Majesty's harem, outside men such as Xiaonian's apprentice Cang Zhu and Jue Ming are not suitable to follow into the palace.

Jiang Changshi, who is also a foreigner, did not follow either. He has a great reputation, and after the imperial examination this year, he will be re-conferred by His Majesty, and then formally enter the court.

The only one staying beside Liu Yu and Xiaonian is Zheng Wuyuan, who is a military commander, and now he is following Xiaonian and the little tiger cub full-time to protect their safety.

Xiaonian is not worried about where he wants to live, but Liu Yu has mentioned to him several times that he wants the little tiger cub to live in a separate room with them.

"Rong Nian and Mu Nian are already eight years old. How can such a half-grown boy live in the same room with his parents in someone else's house? A man must learn to be independent and strong, how can he grow up by always relying on his parents? "

His Majesty the Emperor followed the advice to the little doctor Jian: "What's more, it's not about letting them live in another palace immediately, but just tidy up the room next to it and not sleep with you and me."

"When we first came to the palace, we are still not used to the strangeness here. Is it too early to talk about making them independent now? Besides, their ancestors' returning souls don't take much place, so it doesn't matter if they sleep with us." Xiaonian can imagine, If you tell the little tiger cubs about this, how they will blow up, I have some concerns in my heart.

Liu Yu showed no fluctuations on the surface, but he said in his heart: How could it be possible not to take up the position?How can it be all right?Xiao Fatuo is not big in size, but it is a big thing that hinders him!

He and Xiaonian are already a husband and wife relationship that is known to the world, not to mention that they are lingering every day and night, but it should be normal and natural in human relations to have a warm and intimate relationship every other day.

It’s true that with a kid by your side, it’s fun to sneak around occasionally, but it’s not easy to have fun. In the long run, it’s better to sleep in separate rooms as soon as possible.

Anyway, they had already reminded the little tiger cubs before that they would face many challenges when entering the palace—sleep honestly by themselves, so that the elders can also sleep well, which is their first challenge.

Xiaonian looked suspiciously at His Majesty, who seemed to be impatient, and felt that there were other expectations behind the other party's active persuasion on children's education.

The emperor of Jizhou was stared at by his little queen, not guilty at all, and pretended to listen to the other party's opinion: "You are right, it is indeed a bit too sudden to let them fall asleep by themselves when they are new here..."

Before Xiaonian could laugh, Liu Yu continued: "Then take it step by step and let them sleep by themselves every other day, so that they can get used to it."

Xiaonian agreed to this matter, and half of the success was achieved, lest Xiaonian's heart would soften when the little guy acted like a baby, when would the emperor be able to do whatever he wanted... Oh no, it was to teach his son to be independent.

Xiaonian thought about it, originally Liu Yu asked Rong Nian and Mu Nian to move to another house immediately, now he can still take care of them half and half, which is much more tolerant, so he nodded, acquiescing to Liu Yu's arrangement.

He didn't realize that if Liu Yu had discussed using this more compromise method from the beginning, would he have agreed to the other party so easily.

Anyway, when Liu Yu went to court and Xiaonian was studying with Rong Nian and Mu Nian who had regained their human forms, he still mentioned this matter to the two children.
