For the next ten days, everything was normal.

Reply papers are as usual, discussions in the afternoon are as usual, and soaking in hot springs at night is also as usual.Xie Jingyu sneaked in twice more, and only once made it to the end.When there was no one around, the two would sit next to each other and talk about love, and intimate actions were indispensable.Most of the time, I sit in the study of Feishuang Hall, looking at the figures in Yaoguang Tower from a distance, and I feel satisfied.

I didn't have a new dream, and it became easier to control myself without revealing my flaws.What's more, at that time, people who were over sixty years old can already be said to live a long time; Xie Jingyu is six years older than me, and I live longer than ordinary people, so there is a gap of 20 years.

35 years left sounds like a long time.But I still can't help but feel a sense of urgency, as if an invisible hourglass is beeping non-stop behind my ears - every day goes by and every day is gone.

Therefore, even though the life in Tangquan Palace was very comfortable and carefree, I returned to Xingjing on time.It's the end of the year, and all the officials are ready to do everything, and they are waiting for me to come back to preside over the Yuanri Grand Court Meeting.In the name of Jiannan Great Victory, I held another banquet on New Year's Eve.In name, it is to commend Li Yu, Xu Yingxiao and others for their heroic achievements in annihilating the enemy to the Jiedu envoys and generals from all over the country, but in fact——

Receive rights.

The military power of Jiannan Dao has been handed over to me after Tubo was destroyed; after all, as long as you are not stupid, you know that it is impossible for me to take great risks to go to Jiannan for no reason.Li Yan, Xu Yingxiao and others have made a wise choice, and the others will know that they should follow suit after a little brainstorming.

During the banquet, there was a lot of wine and wine, chatting and laughing, and no swords and swords were seen; but before the new year's sun rises, all the ministers will know that the world is already in my hands.

As the newly appointed General of the Left Guard, Auntie was also invited to the banquet.She was the only woman at the table, and she received the most attention, overtly and secretly, overshadowing the party and the party.If she didn't have another identity as the eldest princess of this dynasty, everyone would probably want to pour her a glass of wine.

I have to evaluate it fairly. Although my sister and I are siblings, my sister's drinking capacity is much stronger than mine.Not only did she pay respects to each of them, but she still had the strength to hold back the wine for me in the end.Seeing her aura, all the people were convinced, saying that this is a woman who is the only one who can't be opened by ten thousand husbands.When the banquet was over, she still held my hand and muttered, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

"Get a bowl of hangover soup for Your Highness the eldest princess." I ordered the left and right.After everyone retreated, I continued to ask: "What do you want to tell me, sister?"

Although Auntie drank a lot, part of her consciousness was still awake. "Your Majesty," she grabbed Zhen's hand even more forcefully, speaking intermittently, "This day... my sister finally waited for this day, Your Majesty..."

Half-drunk people don't know how serious it is, and I suspect that the place where I was detained will turn blue and purple in a while. "I promised my sister a long time ago that she doesn't need to worry." Although I said this, there was still a familiar warmth in my heart.

Sister nodded frequently, as if she really knew what I was talking about. "Your Majesty, now that you truly have the status of your father, you don't have to worry about anything in the future...Even if anyone has disrespectful ambitions, he will surely fail...My sister is so happy...Really I'm so happy...it doesn't matter if this general is a good general..."

I heard her talk further and further away, and thought that she might be getting more and more drunk. "Sister is drunk. I ordered someone to tidy up the side hall. Sister should go to sleep first, and she has to go to court tomorrow morning."

Elder sister seemed to understand, she let go of her hand a little bit, but her mouth didn't stop. "Going to court... This is not a serious matter... I want my sister to say, if I can see that your majesty has an heir with my own eyes... Even if I ask my sister to die immediately, I will have no regrets..."

Heir?

There was a sudden shock on my body.Fortunately, there was no third person, and my sister was so drunk that no one noticed my gaffe. "I have my own arrangements, doesn't my sister always know?"

At this time, the palace servants sent to fetch the hangover soup came back, and I ordered them to take my sister to the side hall to take care of her.As for myself, I have to start thinking——

If I promise Xie Jingyu, then I must do it: even if it is just a promise in my heart.

But it's no easy job.This woman casually rejected the words of the internal servant, but Zongzheng Temple and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were not easy to fool.If there is no plausible reason, I can't think of them forgetting to urge me to have a son.And if you want to make a judgment between being a queen and having a child, the latter is naturally more important than the former; as long as there is a prince, the queen is a small problem.

So, here comes the old question again: there must be boys in the clan, why?

Xie Jingyu's excuse of being good at Nanfeng will definitely not work, the same reason will only bring trouble to both me and him; for the rest, I can only think of infertility.

To be honest, this is more embarrassing than good Nanfeng; but it is the most thorough and relatively convenient to implement - I just need to pretend to accept a few women in the harem and seal their mouths; The movements of the sons and heirs do not need me to speak, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty will understand.At that time, I will pretend to be more anxious, thinking that it will be a matter of going with the flow from adopting a son from the clan to the next knee.

As for which one to adopt...

I thought about it roughly, but I didn't have any favorite candidates.Thinking about the birth time of the next emperor, I suddenly realized that either I waited at least 18 years to adopt him, or my adopted son was his father.

The battle line is too long, and acting takes a lot of energy...but when I think about it again, I feel inexplicably happy. The arrival of 18 years earlier than 35 years, Xie Jingyu had time to see my successor; let's not say whether this can completely eliminate his possible guilt, but it can definitely eliminate part of it.

This plan is completely feasible, but the prerequisite is that no one knows.After all, even if Xie Jingyu did not object for the first time, my sister would be so angry that she would explode...

I'm getting more and more determined.

The next day was Yuanzheng.At the beginning of the new year, all the ministers seemed very active.The congratulatory speeches continued, and the congratulatory ceremony filled the square in front of the Tai Chi Hall.But among all of them, I only paid special attention to three.

One of them is obviously Yongmeng.Just like what Yongzhi and Xie Jingyu said, he is quite adaptable to his new status as Minister of the Ministry of Officials, so adapted that it can be described as easy to handle.I don't even need to look at his work situation, just look at his congratulations to understand——

He presented a copy of "Houji Agricultural Book".This book was compiled nearly a thousand years ago, except for the part quoted by later generations, it has long been lost and lost.However, Yong Meng took advantage of his good interpersonal relationship among literati and inkmen, and spent nearly ten years searching for the relics, but he really spelled it out.

"...There are still gaps in it, I hope Your Majesty will not dislike it."

Yong Meng's words were completely self-effacing.Because the master of ceremonies had just announced the four words "Hou Ji Nong Shu", the Golden Palace was already a sensation, and everyone was exclaiming.Sinongqing Jiao Ping was so excited that his eyes lit up, and he was almost crying.

Look, I said that Yongmeng hid his ambitions very well, and I didn't know about it for nearly ten years.However, this matter really has nothing to do with rebellion, and it is understandable for the spies to not pay attention to it; and to be honest, this book is probably the most pleasing congratulatory gift I have received since I ascended the throne.

"The king of Wei really has a heart, and I will reward you a lot!"

Yong Meng kowtowed to the ground, and then said: "I have thanked Your Majesty for your kindness. But I think that if Your Majesty can hand over these rewards to Secretary Sinong, then my efforts will be truly not in vain."

I couldn't help laughing. "Sure! Jiao Qing, why don't you thank King Wei quickly?"

As for the second person I noticed, it was Songren Songzan.Just by looking into his eyes, I can detect the ambition behind the status quo.Killing him would be the end of the matter; but as I said to Xie Jingyu, even if I spare his life, I still have a way to continue to punish him.Therefore, I found that he was quietly looking at the officials in the palace, but I didn't point it out - Tubo is now weak, and I will ask Li You to make some preparations when the time comes, and the custody will make him very busy, maybe I will regret that I didn't die in battle.If I come to Yin, I can gain a reputation for benevolence, so why not do it?

The third one is the messenger of Huihe.

When Danghe returned to Longyou ahead of schedule, he used the excuse that Huihe and Shatuo were eyeing each other; but in fact, this was not all an excuse, otherwise he would not be able to convince other ministers.Today, almost two years have passed since the Xiongnu were destroyed, and the Huihe tribes have grown stronger, and the border has gradually approached Longyou Road.The new ministers of Tubo, they should not act rashly in the past two years; but in a few years, even if they do not move, I will let the party and peace move.

With this kind of thinking, even if I want to keep it secret, I have to communicate with the party and Tong first.But after the big banquet in the Tai Chi Hall, before I could announce the party peace, Liu Jin came in and asked for an audience with the general of the party.

If there is nothing to do, I will go to the Three Treasures Hall. For the time being, I will suppress the matter of Huihe and plan to listen to what he wants to say first.The party and Jianzhen were still a little embarrassed, but they still quickly explained the purpose of coming——

The climate in Longyou is harsh, and the sky is full of yellow sand all year round.He was fine, and so were his sons, but his wife was born in the south of the Yangtze River, and it became more and more unbearable in recent years.Therefore, he wanted to ask for a grace, so that I would agree to keep his wife and daughter in Xingjing.

The general voluntarily left his family members in the capital, which is a good thing that the emperors of all dynasties could not ask for. "You can do this yourself, why do you have to tell me?" I couldn't help raising my eyebrows.Although Dang He has been fighting abroad all year round, it is not without his mansion in Xingjing City!

"Your Majesty's lesson." Dang He bent down again, as if he was ashamed of what he was going to say next. "Although Mrs. Chen is considered a young lady, she has been with me for a long time, and it is inevitable that she will not know the atmosphere in Xingjing City. She can't get into the eyes of the ladies. I am afraid that if she accidentally offends someone..."

I was stunned for a moment.Although I heard Danghe's words very clearly, when it comes to the women's family in the back house, I guess I don't understand much more than Danghe. "This..." I tried my best to mobilize my little knowledge of Gongdou Zhaidou, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in my mind: "How old is the daughter of the general Dang?"

"Thanks to Your Majesty's inquiry, my daughter has just passed the golden hairpin year." Dang He bowed his head deeply.

After listening to his answer and looking at his appearance, there is nothing I don't understand.The party and his wife may indeed need to improve their living conditions, but more importantly, their daughters—they will be able to officially marry in three years, and of course fathers have to start planning; in Longyou, you can only marry Longyou, and the party and Where are you willing?

"The general of the party is also painstaking." I nodded, "I understand, the general of the party can rest assured."

The promise made by the emperor must be fulfilled, and the party and the party are overjoyed. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

But what he didn't know was that I was full of complaints - the party and the party knew their power, and they didn't dare to find a husband for their daughter at will, so they came to ask me; but who can I marry his daughter with confidence?me?

The author has something to say:

Your Majesty is just making complaints, um~
