Ding!Your golden finger has been delivered

After the court, He Xingzhou went to Qifeng Palace in a hurry, and walked slowly in the garden with Fang Zhengxin.

An Yuan suddenly ran over from the outside, with an anxious expression, and said: "Your Majesty, your husband, there is news from the Queen Mother that you two will be summoned."

Fang Zhengxin glanced at He Xingzhou, withdrew his hand, and sighed, "I can't hide it after all."

"It's very rare for her to be able to settle down for a month."

He Xingzhou took him into his arms again, and the two of them arranged their support, got into the sedan chair, and rushed to Ci'an Palace in a leisurely manner.

The Empress Dowager's residence was as lively as ever, unlike the last time when most of the palace people accompanied the Empress Dowager to talk, this time there were many young women's voices inside, and Yingying, Yanyan made a fuss.

He Xingzhou frowned, and was led in by the palace servants.

"The son has seen the mother."

"My son, please greet the queen mother."

In front of outsiders, Fang Zhengxin's posture has always been hard to find fault with.

The moment the Empress Dowager saw him, her face turned down, and she wanted to let him hang out for a while before calling him up, but considering the big things to come, she snorted softly, "Get up, sit next to Aijia. "

"Yes."

Fang Zhengxin and He Xingzhou naturally sat together, shoulder to shoulder, very understanding.

But this kind of tacit understanding, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, is extremely unruly!

The concubine sat side by side with the emperor, even if she was the husband of the emperor, she was too presumptuous. Given time, this person became the empress dowager, and she still didn't know how to dominate the emperor.

Out of sight, out of mind, she turned her head to the other side and winked at Nanny Bao.

Nanny Bao immediately understood, and stepped forward to introduce: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has invited noble girls from the capital to enter the palace. The one who wears a pink silk shirt with auspicious cloud patterns is the second daughter of the Yin family in Shuntian Prefecture, and the one who wears a yellow hibiscus flower brocade dress The girl is the granddaughter of Yushitai, and that..."

"Stop!" He Xingzhou finally heard the sound, and said displeasedly, "Didn't I say that? There are so many people in the palace, noble girls are not allowed to enter the palace."

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. The Empress Dowager naturally knows your rules, but she is old and always wants to have a lively birthday banquet. The purpose of calling the ladies over is to chat with her and ask them what they like. It's easy to arrange."

"Forget it." He Xingzhou was not polite at all, and said to the Queen Mother seriously, "Mother, the snowstorm is in full swing, and the court is already in a state of distress. If there is news that you are going to hold a big birthday banquet, won't everyone in the world criticize it?"

The Empress Dowager wanted to suppress others with filial piety, but she didn't expect her son to be even more powerful, so he used official business to block her mouth.She was a little panicked for a while, "It's just a banquet. Doesn't the old lady of the people's family not have a birthday?"

"Just because we are the family of the Son of Heaven, we should also set an example. The whole family can get together and have a feast." His tone became a little more serious, "The common people are ignorant and will only see you suffer under them You will have a big birthday, and you will have to say that you are arrogant and extravagant, and you have no compassion for your subjects."

These words really worked, the Queen Mother was frightened when she heard it, at such an old age, she has enjoyed all that should be enjoyed, she has everything, isn't the most important thing is fame after death?

If a birthday banquet puts her in the position of being spurned by the world, she would rather give up.

"Okay, okay, I just don't do it, why are you talking so seriously?"

He Xingzhou was kind and generous, and said: "My mother is kind, I don't think she would mind donating all the money used for the banquet?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother was not happy, he added: "If the people of the world know about the Queen Mother's benevolent deeds, they must be grateful and pray for you secretly, and bless you with lasting blessings."

When the queen mother heard it, she was really moved. The people prayed for her and she didn't like it. After all, she went to the temple every year to invite eminent monks to do it.

So, she also let go: "That's the case, I'm afraid there are not enough things for the banquet, Aijia will add a little more, so that the people can survive the snow disaster."

"The Empress Dowager is benevolent."

All the women in the palace stood up and saluted one after another. Don't throw out the compliments like money, it's all a sign of envy.

He Xingzhou smirked: "Since you ladies are so envious, why don't you donate all the clothes and bedding you don't use like the Queen Mother?"

They immediately stopped talking, with unclear expressions. They were not reluctant to part with the two clothes, but they were afraid that if they got involved rashly at this time, the adults in the family might have some ideas.

After all, the children have donated, how can adults pretend not to see it?Speak out and make people laugh.

The queen mother curled her lips, although she looked down on these women, but it was not good to embarrass her guests.

Immediately changed the subject, and challenged Fang Zhengxin, "Yesterday, Aijia had a dream. He dreamed that there was another prince in the palace. It must be a sign from the heavens. That child is really cute and cute. Wake up Aijia can't read well, I wonder if the imperial husband can fulfill this wish for Aijia?"

Fang Zhengxin looked strange, and glanced at He Xingzhou, "This..."

"The emperor's husband is so hesitant, is it because he refuses? That's right, you're not too young, and it's easier to give birth than a newcomer. I'm afraid the dream of Aijia will be brought into the soil."

He Xingzhou was a little displeased, "Why should the empress embarrass the emperor, he has been cautious in his words and deeds all these years, and has never made a mistake. We are one. You insulted him in front of everyone today, but did you ever think that you would insult me ​​too?" face?"

The empress dowager was blocked by her own son and almost lost her mind with anger. Facing Fang Zhengxin, she didn't pay attention to her demeanor, and said indiscriminately: "Husband, you have dominated the emperor for many years, and you haven't done anything for the royal family. It is disloyal to the country; there are three types of disobedience, and having no offspring is the greatest. You have failed to satisfy Aijia’s desire to have more grandchildren, it is disobedience! An unfaithful and unfilial person like you can also be my Dayan Emperor Husband?"

With a few words, everyone was shocked.

Not only did the girl kneel down on the ground, but the noble girls below were also silent. It was not a good thing for them to hear such royal secrets, and they wished they didn't have long ears.

He Xingzhou was about to be laughed out of anger, and opened his mouth to refute, when he heard a crisp voice resounding through the hall.

"'There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no heir is the greatest. If Shun married without warning, he has no heir.' Queen Mother, this sentence means that marrying a wife without the consent of parents is unfilial, and it has nothing to do with having children. "

The queen mother was demolished in public, and she was angry. She turned her head to look at the speaker, and saw that the woman was born with snow skin, an oval face, and willow-leaf eyebrows. According to people.

"You look pretty, which family are you from?"

That woman was not as timid as an ordinary lady, she raised her head and said: "The minister's daughter is beyond the family."

"Go home?"

Nanny Bao leaned down and said in a low voice: "Queen Dowager, that's the only prostitute in the prime minister's mansion, Yue Bai'an."

"It was her."

Even though the queen mother has lived in the palace for a long time, she is no stranger to what happened in the capital. She has also heard about this noble lady from the Yue family who often makes noise.

With her previous deeds, it is not surprising that this person can openly say such things in the hall.

She sneered, "The Prime Minister has taught you well. It seems that you have indeed read a lot of books, but do you know that the truth of a woman's lack of talent is virtue?"

"Queen, it's wrong again!" Yue Bai'an opened his eyes wide, as if he was condemning her, "'No talent' means that you are talented, but you think you don't have it in your heart. Women have talents but don't show them, so they need to pay more attention to virtue Self-cultivation is the key. Everyone in the world has misunderstood the words of their ancestors, and I think they are nothing more than that. The so-called scholars are only speaking for themselves, and they really shame the ancestors!"

Her words were so loud that all the noble ladies in the palace applauded secretly, even the queen mother was moved. If she hadn't been the one who was brushed off today, I'm afraid she would have to applaud her.

"Since you say that women don't show their talents, so now you are shaking off your talents here, is it virtuous or immoral?"

Yue Bai'an was a little confused: "Queen Mother, I'm just explaining this sentence to you, it doesn't mean that my daughter is the same. If you have talent, you must show it for the benefit of our daughters."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager's outlook on life was about to be crushed by Yue Bai'an, He Xingzhou quickly stopped: "Okay, your words are not unreasonable. After you go back, check the classics carefully, find the source of the misrepresented sentences, and organize them into a book. I can ask people to publish it, so that scholars and women all over the world can read it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yue Bai'an was secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that it was worthwhile for her to come to the palace, not only confirmed that His Majesty is an enlightened monarch, but also had the right to publish books.

You know, in order to limit the mouthpiece of scholars, all published books must be approved by the officials of the Reading Bureau before they can be printed. hit.

"You ladies have worked hard today. Quan Yushan will reward each of you with a bolt of tribute satin and five taels of new tea as a tribute. Send them back properly."

The noble ladies were relieved at first, and then overjoyed. To them, receiving the reward from the emperor was an extremely beneficial thing. That is to say, when they kissed, they could also indirectly elevate their status.

Naturally, everyone knelt down to thank them, and the palace people led them out.

After the people left, He Xingzhou's face darkened in an instant, and he questioned the Queen Mother: "The imperial husband is in charge of the central palace, and the miscellaneous affairs are well organized. There has been no mistake in more than ten years, so that I can avoid trivial matters and concentrate on government affairs. I don't know the truth. Is there something wrong with the heart, maybe in the queen mother's heart, his only duty is to have children?"

"That's natural. Extending descendants is the most important thing in the harem. Everyone in the world knows it!"

"That's good." He Xingzhou pulled Fang Zhengxin up, "My imperial husband is already more than one month pregnant, and I was thinking that the month is small, so I haven't come to report. Now that he has a heavy responsibility, he naturally needs to do it wholeheartedly. I'm afraid it's inconvenient to come here to pay my respects to my mother."

"There are."

The Queen Mother felt complicated for a while, the dream last night was a fact, that's why she was so eager, but she didn't expect that the little grandson she had been dreaming about for so long, would actually stay in the belly of the person she hated.

A war without gunpowder ended with Fang Zhengxin's complete victory. He had been silent before, and only smiled when he left, "Is the queen mother unhappy? I have your grandson in my stomach."

"The Ai family is naturally happy, my husband, take a good rest, don't hurt the grandson of the Ai family."

The queen mother was disturbed and waved them away.
