Ding!Your golden finger has been delivered

When the emperor was never free for a moment, He Xingzhou had only stayed in Fangzhengxin Qifeng Palace for a while, when news came from the Yizheng Hall that the prime minister was asking to see him.

He sighed, tucked the good quilt on the bed, and walked out of the palace.

After leaving the palace gate, his face suddenly became cold and severe. Looking at An Yuan and Nanny Zhou, he said forcefully: "Take care of your master, I don't want similar things to happen again."

The two of them did not dare to breathe, they quickly knelt down and nodded in agreement.

After glancing at them, He Xingzhou walked away.

The original owner didn't like to ride in a sedan chair, and neither did he, so the rest of the journey was entirely on foot, and the eunuchs and guards followed him all the way.

Quan Yushan followed behind him, lowered his head, and looked very respectful and obedient. Seeing that he was going in the wrong direction, he quickly reminded him: "Your Majesty, you are going in the wrong direction. It is the direction of Ci'an Palace. over there."

"It's not wrong." He Xingzhou said with a cold face, "I have important matters to discuss with my mother, so it doesn't matter if the Prime Minister waits."

"Yes."

Quan Yushan didn't dare to persuade him any more. After following His Majesty's side for so many years, he knew very well that the Lord's temper was not cruel, but he absolutely said what he said and would never allow others to disobey him.

This kind of characteristic may be suspected of being self-willed when placed on others, but it is a good character that promises everything when placed on Mingjun.

He Xingzhou walked all the way to Ci'an Palace, talking and laughing inside, it was very lively, after the eunuch informed, the room fell silent instantly.

After a while, the Empress Dowager's personal nurse came out, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager invites you in."

He Xingzhou stepped into the palace, the queen mother was cold, and the whole palace was burning warmly.

He glanced at the palace servants who were kneeling on the ground, without yelling to get up, he went to the chair next to the empress dowager and sat down.

"You all get up, I will have a conversation with the emperor, and I won't let you serve for now."

"Yes." The palace people stood up and left the palace.

The Empress Dowager is nearly 65 years old, and she had a hard life in her early years, and her face was inevitably weathered. However, she has received a lot of support from the world for these years, and she has a lot of aura of calmness and prestige.

He poured a cup of tea for He Xingzhou himself, and thoughtfully said: "It's cold, the emperor doesn't have to come to pay his respects every day, so where did this come from?"

"Phoenix Palace."

The Empress Dowager's subordinates paused, then laughed again, "Speaking of which, Ai's family hasn't visited much since the imperial husband's illness. I heard that all the imperial doctors were dispatched yesterday, but it was serious?"

"After one night, it's already great."

"Really?" The Empress Dowager was expressionless, neither happy nor disappointed, "He is blessed, maybe your father is protecting you, he has always been satisfied with your imperial husband."

He Xingzhou took a sip of tea, had no time to go around with her, and said bluntly, "Mother, it's my son who is so useless that he can't even support three people, so you have started to reduce the expenses of the harem."

The Empress Dowager's face darkened, "It's the emperor who sued you."

"What's the matter, everyone in the palace knows it well. Your palace burns like spring all year round, with firewood day and night, but have you ever thought that my imperial husband would even plan to burn charcoal? If not, he wouldn't have thought about it." will be seriously ill."

"Is the emperor blaming Aijia for beating your imperial husband?"

"My son didn't dare, so I asked my mother to take it back. You are old, and it's time for you to be raised. The trivial matters in the palace don't hurt your spirit."

The Queen Mother calmed down, and said in a nonchalant way: "Don't worry about the emperor, the Ai family can handle it. When our family was not prosperous, didn't I bring you up?"

"It's different today. In the past, we were just a small family. Now I am the emperor and rule the world. Our family's affairs can be regarded as a major event in the world. I hope the Queen Mother understands."

"Hmph, it's said that a son doesn't think his mother is ugly, but you have become the emperor, but you despise me. If people in the world know about it, what should you think?"

"The empress is serious. After today, I will hand over all the affairs of the palace to the imperial husband." He stood up and bowed, "My son is busy with government affairs, so I won't bother the empress."

After speaking, he flung his sleeves and left directly.

The queen mother looked at his resolute back, covered her heart with a veil, and was so angry that Nanny Zhou walked in from the outside. Seeing this, she quickly took two pills for her and stroked her back, and then let him Slow down.

"Nie Zi!" She said bitterly, "The older he is, the more unfilial he becomes. If he dares to take my power today, tomorrow he will drive me out of the palace for his good husband!"

"The empress dowager is serious. No matter what, you are the emperor's biological mother. If he does this, the spittle of the courtiers alone can drown him."

Nanny Zhou has been with the Empress Dowager for almost her whole life, and she claims to be the emperor's elder, so she doesn't have much scruples when speaking.

However, the queen mother still trusts her very much, turning her head and complaining: "My son was so obedient and well-behaved when he was young, but now, he only comes here to make me angry and chill me!"

"Empress Dowager Mingjian, I think the emperor is still filial, but there are people around you who are blowing on their pillows and are prejudiced against you for a while."

"You mean what did Fang Zhengxin say?"

"That's right, thanks to his intentions, he sued the emperor as soon as it happened. The emperor loves him, so he immediately asked you to settle the score?"

When the queen mother heard this, she clenched the handkerchief tightly, "No, I can't make him go crazy, otherwise, how can I speak in this harem?"

"What does the Queen Mother mean?"

"Mu Xin enters the palace tomorrow, you go pick her up in person, and help me go to the Four Seasons Pavilion and call the best painter over."

The Empress Dowager had thought about it a long time ago, Mammy Bao was not surprised, and said: "The painters in the Four Seasons Museum are excellent in painting skills, especially good at painting portraits. I heard that all the ladies in the capital have asked them to draw portraits."

"I don't believe it anymore. There are still people in this world who are not attracted to beauties."

"But the emperor has ordered that beauties are forbidden to enter the palace before, if he knows..."

"What? Ai's birthday is coming soon, so why not call them to help me celebrate?"

"Of course it's appropriate. Presumably the emperor won't say much."

The He Xingzhou they were talking about was walking through the imperial garden towards the Yizheng Hall.

On the way, he glanced at the people around him, seemingly unintentionally said: "Pass down, from now on, all affairs in the harem will be in charge of the emperor's husband. If the queen mother has a government order, she must go back and forth with me first."

Quan Yushan faltered, nodded, "Yes, I understand."

"You should also understand, Quan Yushan, there are some things I don't pursue, but I am thinking of your parents' dying entrustment. If you can't see your identity clearly, and you don't know who you are living under, then I will follow your wish and send How about you transfer to the empress dowager's palace to accompany her old man?"

Quan Yushan's face was pale, and he knelt down on the ground, begging: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please forgive me for a while? You are used to being served by me, so I don't care who it is! "

It's no wonder that I have been a palm print eunuch for so many years, look at what I said, it is obvious that I am greedy for power and don't want to leave, but I said it was because of him.

If it was the original owner, maybe he would miss the old relationship and be moved by him, but He Xingzhou didn't feel the slightest disturbance in his heart.

"Okay, this is the last time, let's not make an exception."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Quan Yushan kowtowed several times on the ground and stopped only when he saw blood on his forehead.

After beating the Empress Dowager and the attendants around him, He Xingzhou came to the Hall of Political Affairs. There are tables and chairs here, so that people who come here don't have to stand and wait.

The prime minister and several adults were sitting peacefully, enjoying the snacks on the table.

Seeing him coming, everyone quickly stood up and saluted. Among the officials of the Dayan Dynasty, it was not customary to kneel down and bow their hands to show respect.

"You don't need to be too polite, all you lovers, please sit down."

He Xingzhou walked up to the top, saw the people below, picked up the memorials arranged next to him, and began to give instructions with a Chinese ink pen while listening to them.

Everyone knew his ability to focus on two things, and they didn't feel disrespected. The prime minister took a sip of tea to clear his throat, and said: "Your Majesty, the Qin Tianjian is here to report that there may be heavy snow this winter, and the snow will cause disasters. I hope your majesty will Make plans early."

"Well, I've heard about that too."

In his memory, this year's snowfall was really unusual. It could be called the biggest snowfall in the past century. It completely covered the capital, and many residential buildings in the outskirts of the city collapsed, which really hurt many people.

Although the original owner also paid attention to it, the entire court did not expect that the snow would be so heavy. When it was time to make amends, the heavy snow had already sealed the road tightly, and it was not easy to get in and out, let alone relief?

He thought for a while and said, "Where is the Minister of the Household Department?"

A fat man with a short beard came out, "The minister is here."

"Is the cloth and cotton in the national treasury still full?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the savings from last year have not been moved at all. If it is a disaster relief, it is more than enough."

The taxation of the Dayan Dynasty was not high, and it could be replaced by grain and cloth. Needless to say, grain could be used as military rations, and it would never fail to be used up.

And those cloths, especially silks and satins, are not easy to preserve, and they will fade and rot after two or three years of use. Therefore, the imperial court usually clears the inventory regularly and sells them to cloth houses in batches.

Now all the cloth from the previous year in the national treasury has been sold, and last year's cloth is still there. Counting it, it is really not a small amount of inventory.

"The order will go on. It's cold this year. I'm sympathetic to the people. I will distribute two bolts of coarse cloth and five catties of cotton to each household. If it's not enough, I'll buy some from the cloth shop."

"This... Your Majesty, if this continues, the state treasury's cloth income for the past two years will be empty."

"Taxes are collected from the people and used by the people. The people are not more important than the cloth? Zhao Qing's family, I know that your family has some connection with the largest cloth factory, so I just have a message for you."

He Xingzhou sat up straight, showing the imperial aura, "If I am satisfied with their disaster relief performance this time, I can pretend that I don't know the extra cloth that I took from the treasury before, and just make up the payment afterwards; if not... .”

He didn't go on, just smiled lightly, which made people's hearts chill, "Let them think about it slowly."

Hubu Shangshu didn't dare to say more, for fear of involving himself, he quickly said "yes" and sat down.

He took a sip of tea to calm his shock, only to realize that his back was completely wet with sweat in the winter.
