Chapter 85
Besides, the empress summoned Jiang Heng alone to reveal this matter, not because she was hard-line, but because she wanted to see if she wanted to intervene in this matter.
In the coming year, the Chuxiu Palace newcomers will learn the rules, of course, the Empress Dowager and her queen will have the full power to decide, and concubines Xi and Concubine Yu who are of sufficient status will naturally follow and help.
On the contrary, Jiang Heng's concubine Xin Xin: In terms of it, it is the main position, and participating in some important palace affairs is a kind of flattery, and it also increases her prestige among the newcomers in the future.
But this matter is very subtle: Concubine Xin has basically replaced the concubine Nian now, and has become the concubine who is the only favorite. If she participates in this matter, if she does not do a little thing well, there may be gossip fermenting, saying Concubine Xin is proud of being favored, and as a favored concubine, she naturally wants to suppress the newcomer.
Therefore, the empress specially summoned her here today, and communicated to her in advance.
I also want to see Concubine Xin's reaction: if she is happy and eager to participate in some decision-making palace affairs, then the queen will share some of the power with her. That's it.
Unexpectedly, after I finished talking about this matter, I saw that Concubine Xin was still smiling, and I couldn't see Concubine Xin's tendency for a while.
In fact, Jiang Heng just inspired the "community animal mechanism" and put on a standard subordinate face to the leader. According to past workplace experience, what the leader said in person, even if it is an appointment and work that he is extremely unwilling, it is best to keep smiling and listen to it. After good language, I always refuse.
If you just think of a reason to fill in the past and be dismissed by the leader with reasonable grounds, then it will be difficult to get rid of this task.
But the queen was a little surprised by Concubine Xin's determination.
She has always felt that Concubine Xin is a person with a good personality and good destiny, naturally well-behaved, and her character is just between the calmness of Concubine Xi and the liveliness of Concubine Yu.It was also because the empress had never discussed any serious palace affairs with Jiang Heng in the past, they basically just mentioned a few words in the group meeting, and in private, they basically only talked about Minmin's affairs.
This is the first time to explain important matters alone, but found that Concubine Xin is no less than Concubine Xi in terms of calmness.
So the queen simply said directly: "You know this matter in your heart, go back and think about it later. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has just handed over the draft of next year's draft, and this matter is not urgent at all."
Jiang Heng also realized at this time that the queen should come to show her favor and remind her.
So I thanked the queen, and then I went to the Tongle Academy and left.Coming out of the Queen's Palace and still on the way back, Jiang Heng began to write a plan in his head, how could he justifiably have nothing to do with this matter.
However, none of her plans came to fruition.
The emperor wiped this matter away from the root.
The draft held every three years, if there is no great war and funeral in the country, it is impossible not to do it. Girls of the right age in the Manchurian Eight Banners, if they do not go through the draft, they will not be able to marry on their own.
Unless, as in the 12th to 20th years of Kangxi, the imperial court was busy pacifying San Francisco, the draft was delayed twice, and the draft was suspended due to the force majeure of the royal family, then the girls could be compiled by each banner after they surpassed it. Before going to the imperial court, the emperor's imperial pen will confirm the approval before he can engage in marriage by himself, and the process is strict.
Besides, compared to the girls of the Eight Banners, those princes and grandsons of the royal family are actually more looking forward to the three-year draft—waiting to marry a wife.
If Lord Kangxi was able to give birth, he didn't manage all the important matters of the marriage of his sons before he was alive, so they all belonged to the elder brother, Lord Yongzheng.The first emperor's princes started from the sixteenth year old, and they are all under 20 years old this year. Without Ama as the master, wouldn't he have to rely on his emperor's brother to choose a famous lady from the talent show to marry him?
Here are the unmarried younger brothers, and the unmarried elder nephews!
Brothers who are about the same age as the emperor, the children are all starting in the high single digits, and some of them can't handle it. When they reach the age of marriage, don't they all stretch their necks and wait for the beautiful girl to point out marriage?
The draft is imperative.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs issued a draft document on drafting work in triplicate, and the emperor, empress dowager, and empress each handed one copy.
After all, if the show girl is going to enter the palace to run for election at the end of February next year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will start preparations at this moment: it will take more than three months to make statistics and confirmation work for each banner in the early stage.
But the emperor first kept the papers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and did not issue them. After the papers were approved that night, he went to live in the moon altar where the empress dowager lived.
After dinner, the queen mother was walking around the gravel path in the small garden in a cool breeze.
Seeing the emperor arrived, the queen mother ordered someone to serve tea, and left the emperor to talk: "It just so happens that you are here, and Aijia wants to tell you about the next year's draft."
In addition to the draft, the queen mother is also thinking about Hongshi.
She already knew that the emperor didn't like Hongshi, the eldest son, and Hongshi was really not very up-to-date.But the Empress Dowager is basically in a state of blind optimism for her grandchildren, just like all the doting grandmothers in the world: the child is not sensible?That is, he has not grown up yet!Just wait until you marry a daughter-in-law!
So when Concubine Qi made a mistake, the Empress Dowager took advantage of the New Year's Eve to pay attention to the daughters of relatives and nobles in the Eight Banners, thinking of marrying a good wife for Hongshi, so that the father-son relationship between her son and grandson could be eased.
This is the top priority.
The emperor saw that the empress dowager ordered someone to make tea, obviously he wanted to have a long talk, but it was also in line with his wishes, the mother and son went up the steps and sat down at the highest moon pavilion.
The "Yuetan Yunju" where the Empress Dowager lives is the most open and highest courtyard in the Old Summer Palace, which means the bright moon in the clouds.
Just because the Empress Dowager lives here, Jiang Heng has lost several kilograms since he came to the Old Summer Palace.After giving birth to Minmin, even though she tried her best to control it, she still gained a little weight, so she spent these days climbing mountains and sending Minmin to the queen mother.
Although it is a bit strenuous to go up and down, the moonlight is really excellent at night in this Moon Altar Cloud Residence.
As a result, the mother and son sat down without opening their mouths for a while, and they both looked at the bright and bright moon, each feeling refreshed and happy, forgetting the mundane things.
It wasn't until the tea and fruit were served that the emperor waved the maid back: "Go and add a cloak to the empress, I don't need you to wait here."
Pour tea for the Queen Mother himself.
The empress dowager looked at the emperor, eyes full of love almost overflowing: "Before the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor has been busy with the summer harvest for a long time, and a few days ago there was an investigation of drugs in the palace. I've lost weight."
The emperor met the Empress Dowager's gaze, and also showed a little smile: "My summer is always a little cooler than winter, so don't worry about it, Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager took a sip of tea, then slowly raised her head: "Speaking of this drug, Aijia heard that it was Hong Shi who brought it into the palace first, and that Concubine Qi took it by mistake. Fortunately, you No entrance."
Seeing that the emperor was about to frown at the mention of Hongshi, the queen mother sighed: "Young child Hongshi, the Ai family knows your heart. However, this is all because Concubine Qi didn't teach her well. This child is also taught to be unsteady." After putting the blame on Concubine Qi, the queen mother threw out her own theory of marrying a daughter-in-law in a timely manner: "When the draft is next year, the emperor will choose a good Fujin for him and persuade him carefully. gone."
The emperor had planned for Hongshi's marriage long ago, and he must choose a powerful Mongol princess to restrain him, and it doesn't have to be the daughter of a Mongolian prince. It can be a little lower, but it is good to have ideas and temper.
So the emperor said: "Emperor Niang, don't worry, Hongshi is always my son, and I have already started picking Fujin for him."
After talking about current events in Hong Kong, the emperor mentioned another matter about the draft: this draft should be all selected, and some suitable girls should be selected to marry relatives of the right age. Fujin to prepare for the big wedding, so that An Huang Ama is in the spirit of heaven.
The queen mother nodded while listening.
Speaking of this, the emperor changed his voice: "But there are already enough people in the harem, so I won't keep anyone."
The Empress Dowager was surprised immediately, the hand that was supposed to drink tea was raised in mid-air, but it stopped and forgot to continue to lift it.
He only asked three times: "What? No one is kept in the harem? How can this be done?"
The empress dowager's reaction, the emperor was also prepared, he didn't answer directly, instead he waved his hand and called Su Peisheng who was standing under the pavilion to come up.
Su Peisheng held out several brochures.
The emperor picked up the top one and handed it to the queen mother himself.
The Empress Dowager hesitated and did not accept it: Emperor Shunzhi had set up an iron sign in the palace, and the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics.
Although Lord Kangxi did not spend much time with Emperor Shunzhi, the Ama, and he was taught by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang to be good at government affairs, but when he was an adult, he implemented the rule of "no political interference in the harem" very well.Not to mention those concubines with sons, even the three queens he had established, none of them dared to talk about the past affairs.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager didn't accept it, the emperor passed it forward again and said sincerely: "These papers are not related to military secrets, and they are all papers from several months ago. They have been dealt with long ago. My son asked my mother to read it. I just want to use this matter to explain to Er Niang what my son is doing all day, and what kind of emperor he wants to be."
He could hear the emperor's heartfelt and heartfelt words, so the queen mother took it over.
She took out the folded gold-wire presbyopic glasses hanging from her purse, and looked at the first booklet the emperor handed her.
This is the copy of Jue Luo's Man Bao, governor of Zhejiang Province. The reason why the emperor selected this share for the Queen Mother is not only because this is an ordinary job and does not involve military aircraft, but also because this Jue Luo Man Bao is a serious red belt and loves Xin. The Jue Luo family is said to be the one who can best unite with the royal family.
But even an official with this status has a lot of selfishness.
This is the booklet for November.
It is about the fact that many ships from Zhejiang were forced to stay in the Shandong river because of the freezing of the northern river in winter and could not return.
This is also a common occurrence. The queen mother looked down and saw that Manbao also proposed a solution: Zhejiang Liangdao Jiang Guoying planned to pay 15 taels of silver from water transportation, and build more than 580 new ships for emergency.In the next five years, these [-] new ships will be used to gradually replace more than [-] old ships that have reached the full age of the water transport, and the replacement ships will no longer receive money from the Ministry of Households to balance the accounts.
The Empress Dowager looked at it once, and asked rather puzzled: "Ai's family doesn't understand foreign affairs, but if you want to compare it with the affairs of the harem—if the old things are not available for a while, the order to move Ku Yin to build new ones can be regarded as an emergency measure. Isn't that okay?"
Old ships always have to be replaced. Isn’t it good to spend money in advance to build new ships, which can not only solve the urgent need of insufficient ships in winter, but also use them for the future?
The emperor nodded: "Yes, if you only look at the booklet on Manbao, it is a clever and unconstrained method. I'm afraid I will reward him and Jiang Guoying!"
Then the emperor nodded, and Su Peisheng handed over another booklet.
The Empress Dowager noticed that these folders were packed in a wooden box with a lock, which can be seen to be closely folded.
After the queen mother took it for a closer look, she couldn't help being furious: "How dare Manbao and Jiang Yingying deceive the emperor like this?"
These seals were made by Gao Bin of Suzhou Weaving and Huang Qifeng of Shandong Liangdao and others.
The secret zhe on the Shandong Liangdao is intended to show that although the river in the Shandong area is frozen, they Shandong Liangdao had anticipated this, so they ordered the Zhejiang ship to return early. 'I heard' that Zhejiang Liangdao wanted to build new ships on the grounds that the ships were trapped in Shandong, but they really didn't know why.He didn't dare to speculate, so he secretly reported it to the emperor.
This is obviously a person who doesn't want to take the blame and shakes his head desperately: Zhejiang's money and boats are its own tricks!We don't know anything, don't get involved in my Dashan officialdom, please the emperor to investigate clearly!
As for Gao Bin, who is in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhezi's complaint is more straightforward: Jiang Guoying has a deficit of 10 taels of silver on the grain road, so he used the shipbuilding matter as an excuse to go to Zhejiang Governor Man Bao, intending to withdraw Zhejiang water transport taxes Fill your gaps!As for the [-] new ships, they were not newly built, but Jiang Guoying sent people to blackmail merchants and private households on the water transport, forcing them to requisition civilian ships, and repairing them a little to make up for the number.
The Empress Dowager looked up at the Emperor.
Facing his biological mother who only cares about him in this life, the emperor said: "Er Niang asked me before why the number of officials who can read secret papers has increased by dozens of times compared to Huang Ama's years, and read so many papers every day. , didn’t I overwork myself—now that’s the answer.”
"If Shandong Liangdao can't pass the secret papers, if Gao Bin and other Zhejiang officials can't make secret papers, then I will approve the papers that are fully guaranteed."
"Once such an order is followed, there will be nothing wrong with full insurance, nothing wrong with Jiang Yingying, and even my Zhejiang grain road will be fine-it will be a good thing for Jiang Yingying to make up for my deficit."
"But my mother, I am afraid that hundreds of households on the water transport will go bankrupt. As a man, Jiang Yingying will not blackmail those Cao Ding who have official connections, I am afraid that he will persecute the people who have no backing. Ding Caonong’s family has lived on a boat for several generations, and if the boat is lost, the whole family will throw themselves into the water and die.”
The emperor covered the tightly folded wooden box with his hands and opened them as far as possible, as if he hoped that his hands could cover the whole world and protect all his subjects.
But people are not Buddha, one hand can cover the world.
"Therefore, I can only give my heart, ears, and mind to the world. If I can save six hundred households in Cao Ding by writing more papers in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, how can I not do it!"
The Empress Dowager looked at her son with sore eyes.
She still remembered that when the late emperor was here, the emperor claimed to be the number one idler in the world, just in order not to reveal his desire to seize the heir apparent and make the late emperor suspicious.
At that time, the child must have suffered a lot.
Mourning the hardships of the people's livelihood, but at that time, I could only stand by the hardships of the people's livelihood.
The queen mother couldn't help taking off her glasses, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said, "The emperor's painstaking mourning family knows nothing in case. But these years, even though the mourning family is in the harem, they have heard many important things that the emperor has planned since he ascended the throne. Just like It’s not a big deal to turn the people into the mu, reform the land and return it to the local people, and the officials and gentry work as one, but it’s all done in a few years.”
"The Ai family can't stop you from changing the court guidelines, but sometimes it hurts when you think about it, and you don't know how you survived, how many memorials you have to approve and how many people you have to see every day, and how busy you are."
The emperor only showed a weary smile.
Where did Queen Mother know.
After completing these things within four years, it is already the result of his control.In his previous life, all these things were done within two years of his ascension to the throne, and the battle to put down the Qinghai rebellion was even added during this period.This life is already the result of slowing down the pace as much as possible and making up for the previous omissions.
Of course the emperor looked tired, but more of it was his determination to live and die: "I only want to work with one heart and one mind, to make a living for the people of the country and to live in peace."
"Emperor Niang also knows that I really don't feel that way about wine and sex, so I don't need to indulge."
"Nowadays, there are quite a few people in the harem. I feel that Concubine Xin gets along comfortably and happily. If I go to the harem, I want to go to the Yonghe Palace to really relax and enjoy myself. Therefore, it is enough to have the Yonghe Palace. No matter how many I don't have time to go, it just adds to the matter."
There is no need for the emperor to explain, the queen mother already understands what he means: there are many concubines in the harem who have never served or even met the concubine. Summoned to choose one by one to see if these concubines are acceptable.
The emperor's will is not here.
It's just that this matter was too sudden, the queen mother still drank another cup of tea, and after a moment of silence, she accepted it.
In the end, he smiled in relief, and asked the emperor directly: "Does Concubine Xin know about the fact that you don't keep newcomers?" There is also a sentence hidden behind, isn't Concubine Xin determined to be the same as the imperial concubine back then, and is determined to always be pampered?
In fact, the queen mother directly asked this question, and the emperor was relieved: it can be seen that the queen mother also likes her very much.If you ask directly, it will appear that there is no grudge. If the Queen Mother refuses to mention Concubine Xin, maybe there is prejudice in her heart.
The emperor came to talk to the queen mother today, and it was from the bottom of his heart.
Not to mention letting concubines take care of themselves.
He always treats his courtiers with a clear decree, "Whether the future generations of the world think it is right or wrong, I will take care of it, and I have nothing to do with my ministers", and he does not let his courtiers take the blame for himself.
What's more, Concubine Xin is his own, since he came to tell the Empress Dowager about this matter, he must worry that the Empress Dowager may misunderstand that Concubine Xin is arrogant and unwilling to enter the harem as a newcomer.
The emperor shook his head: "She doesn't know. I just thought about it myself, so I came to tell the empress first."
The queen mother also sighed and smiled at the end: "Forget it. Let's go with the emperor. You are not the emperor who waited for the eight-year-old enthronement like the first emperor, and the Ai family is not the queen mother who can worry about hard work like the queen mother Xiaozhuang. There is nothing I can do for you. You can't rely on your status as an elder to force you to do something you don't like."
"If you fail to live up to your ambition to serve the people of the world, Aijia will be sorry for you."
The emperor had a heart-to-heart talk with the empress dowager for a long time that night, and he felt that the block in his heart had been relieved a lot.
The talk is about the current life, but the queen mother doesn't know that what the emperor makes up for is the deep regrets of the past.
In his previous life, he was much busier than this, and it can be said that he was much more desperate.
But people are not stone mills, they can spin forever without emotion.Sometimes the emperor also felt exhausted and wronged, but there were no elders and relatives who could tell.
The Buddhist hall in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, like the side hall of the Qianqing Palace, is hung with the portraits of the former emperor and the empress dowager.
Sometimes the emperor was so tired that he would go to the Buddhist hall and sit cross-legged, talking to Ama Erniang and complaining.It's just that he knows in his heart that what he confides to is the caring and considerate parents he imagined.It's not the real Lord Kangxi and Empress Dowager Xiao Gongren who have passed away.After all, his real parents, one is the emperor with an unpredictable heart; the other is a younger brother who is more partial to him, and after he ascended the throne, he even refused to be the mother-in-law of the empress dowager.
From the beginning to the end, the elders who can listen to him are only fabricated images of love.
But now, he finally has an elder who will comfort him and understand all his decisions.
The empress dowager's tears just now also fell on the emperor's heart, filling up the sadness he felt sitting in front of the two portraits many years ago.
"Go to Suxin Hall." Out of the Yuetan Yunju, the emperor sat on the sedan chair and ordered.
However, when the emperor arrived at Suxintang, he was told that concubine Xin was not in the palace, but had gone to see the fish in the goldfish pond.
The emperor stopped the inner eunuch from going to send a message to invite the letter concubine to come back to meet her, and said only: "I will go over."
After talking with the Empress Dowager just now, the Emperor didn't feel tired. Instead, he felt an unprecedented sense of openness and the excitement of continuing to forge ahead with the understanding of his relatives.
Also urgently wanted to talk to Concubine Xin.
Can she understand her own choice?Such a solemn and long-term trust from him, will she take it up and stay by her side forever in the future?
More than ten years in the previous life have confirmed many people here, but she is the only one who is new in this world.
The emperor originally just glanced at it casually, but accidentally bumped into the center of his eyes.
Jiang Heng leaned on the railing, and didn't ask anyone to light a lamp to gather the fish. Instead, he just looked at the goldfish with fan-like tails swimming freely by the palace lanterns lit on the road at night, and was fascinated by himself.
After putting her daughter to sleep, she came out to relax and think about the working environment after next year's draft.
For some reason, looking at the swimming goldfish, her train of thought gradually went astray, from the fact that a newcomer would enter the palace next year, to the emperor's almost ascetic indifference towards the harem.
She originally thought that she would not have to think about the issue of exclusive pet until the newcomer entered the palace three years later - she always felt that during the period of pregnancy, it was enough to take off the hat of exclusive pet for herself.
Pregnant concubines will be removed from the green card, and the emperor should look for other cards.
But the emperor really didn't turn over the card all the time, so that the hat on her head was even tighter.
Of course, this also has something to do with the emperor not being in the palace for a long time - when she was pregnant, the emperor was planning to shovel away Nian Gengyao and Longkodo at the same time, and went to the Mulan paddock for a long time.
To shovel away these two deep-rooted courtiers requires full preparations before and after, and there is no time to walk in the harem.
Jiang Heng remembered that the emperor didn't visit her much during that time.
She became more and more divergent: in fact, when she was not pregnant, the emperor's flops were very limited, almost less than once a month on average.Therefore, Zhang Yuzhu in the respect room was worried about being thin and out of shape for a while.
"Giant panda." Jiang Hengfu said to himself on the railing, the emperor looked like a giant panda.
From a quantitative point of view, emperors are as rare as giant pandas.In addition, the emperor is similar to giant pandas. It is said that giant pandas go into heat once a year, which is a standard cold physique.
So Jiang Heng still remembers the fact that the emperor came here for two consecutive days on the grassland, because it was so special, it was unprecedented!
Could it be that if you are a human being in the next life, you really see through the world of mortals, and you can't do without those worldly desires?
Jiang Heng looked like a fish in front of his eyes, but in fact, the emperor turned over slowly in a panda costume, and couldn't help laughing again.
"What are you thinking about?"
If it weren't for the high railings, Jiang Heng might be so scared that he would fall into the goldfish pond.
The emperor's voice suddenly rang in his ears, it was like thunder.
She answered reflexively from the bottom of her heart: I was thinking about whether the price of your reincarnation being confiscated, Your Majesty.Of course, such an answer to death can only be thought about in my heart.
So he just shook his head on the face: "The concubine is fascinated by watching the fish."
The emperor smiled, took her wrist and gently pulled her up: "It's getting cold on the rock at night, don't lie on the railing, carefully let the cold air enter your body."
Hearing his meticulous care, Jiang Heng recalled that he often talked about the way of keeping in good health with himself, and another idea came to his mind, whether the emperor took drugs in his previous life so that he had a shadow, so he was especially abstinent and keeping in good health...
And the emperor saw that she was always out of her mind, and thought she was shocked by the news that a newcomer would enter the palace next year.
"Is it the empress... or the empress who told you about the entry of the beautiful girl into the palace next year?"
Jiang Heng lowered his head and replied: "The Empress and my concubines talked about it once."
She then wanted to confess to the big leader that although she was wearing the hat of being a pet, she would never suppress the newcomer's attitude: "The empress also said that the concubine should learn some palace affairs, and the newcomer will enter the Chuxiu Palace... ..."
Seeing her talking with her head down like this, the emperor interrupted: "There will be no newcomers entering the palace next year."
Sure enough, she raised her head in astonishment, and her eyes suddenly lit up astonishingly, like stars flashing suddenly in an extremely clear night sky.
The emperor was irritated by this attitude.
But Jiang Heng was really shocked: Could it be that, the emperor, you really embarked on the road of banning and wanting to change your lifespan!
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Under her shocked gaze, the emperor gradually calmed down, and the next words came calmly, as naturally as the wind stops the rain.
"I have so many things I want to do, but I just don't feel like I have enough time."
The emperor walked slowly along the edge of the goldfish pond, motioning for Jiang Heng to follow him.
But Su Peisheng led the people back a little further.
"When I open my eyes every day, there are countless things in my mind. Before I go to bed, I always think about what to do tomorrow, thinking about where I should receive the note recently, and why it has not been delivered yet."
"If it wasn't for my body being unable to bear it, I might have been sitting in the Hall of Mental Cultivation forever."
The emperor turned his head and smiled at her.
"That's why I'm really tired. When I want to leave the court for a while, I just look forward to a place where I can calm down. Now that I have you and Minmin, I feel that my troubles have disappeared after seeing you. It's enough." Now, why bother to add more people and things to the palace."
There is a limit to the amount of energy and emotions a person can expend.
Jiang Heng still remembered that she had played a game simulating being an emperor before.
In the game, there are only twelve hours a day. If the 'emperor' chooses to see his concubines, he will not be able to see more ministers. If he chooses to conquer the barbarians to gain military merit, he will be doomed to have less time to manage the internal affairs of the capital. If he chooses to indulge in pleasure, he will be doomed to lose control. Live in the government.
This is true for games, let alone real life, which is far more tiring than these.
The reason why the emperor has been single-line pampering his concubine for many years is precisely because the previous dynasty was multi-line parallel, or the ultimate multi-line parallel.
And the only single thread in the harem breaks from time to time like a kite thread and runs away, going to the limit first to get busy with the front.
This is his choice.
The emperor thinks that Jiang Heng really looks like him - when Jiang Heng was playing the game of simulating the emperor, he set his diligence value to a high level, but the collection of beauties in the harem is very barren, usually for the sake of "health" Value' will stop brushing the hard work value, and occasionally go to the harem for a while.
At that time, she was just like the emperor at this moment.
Then Jiang Heng knew what he wanted.
She stopped and tugged at the emperor's sleeve: "The concubine will always be with you like this. Yonghe Palace will always be a place for the emperor to relax and feel at ease."
What he needs is a charging station for life.The stress of governing the country is a great drain, and he needs a place where he can rest temporarily.
The emperor felt enough after hearing what she said.
Now that she can understand, her choice and love are not paid by mistake.
He stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Heng's hand, and seemed to be answering irrelevant questions: "Many courtiers feel that I am harsh, and their emotions and anger are difficult to figure out. Chang Shangzhe himself was terrified, listening to the sacred teachings, and terrified all day long."
The emperor shook his head: "Actually, my true thoughts and true hadiths have already been said countless times. I have written to many of my ministers: the only word between the emperor and his ministers is honesty! As long as the emperor and his ministers are of the same mind for the country and the people, they will give birth to them." I don't listen to the wind, I just try to be clever and speculate on my mind."
Jiang Heng looked at the emperor, he was telling her that all he needed was sincerity.
But in fact, she already knew.
She has read many scriptures written by Zhu Zhu: "I wrote down sincerely with many ministers that I hope that my monarch and ministers will be sincere and united."
In this respect, he frankly does not look like an emperor.Maybe the world will stare at Longke for many years and talk about Gengyao, but not see how the emperor trusted and treated Shisanye, Zhang Tingyu, Ertai and others generously from beginning to end.In his whole life, he has never failed any of his courtiers, and he has never failed any of them. Not to mention the two princes in Prince Yi's mansion, he also has an iron hat king; he gave Ertai and Zhang Tingyu the honor of the Taimiao.
Especially Ertai, Li Wei, and Tian Wenjing are not without flaws. They have also made mistakes when doing things, and they are not even minor mistakes.But because of their righteousness, for their loyalty, and for their diligence, the emperor forgave them all and wrote a long book to teach them how to do business better.
Such a leadership is really a capable courtier's Bole.
Anyone who has ever worked will know how difficult it is to meet such a leader.
If this is a card game, then both she and the emperor are lucky.
For her, the Emperor's Preference is the strongest SSR (Super Super Rare) card that can be used in the game server.
And to the emperor, she was probably a super kryptonian who wanted anything and everything, but she was born with the card that she hadn't drawn before.She may not be the strongest and best card, but she is just the right card for him to like.
They fit right into each other.
The emperor needs someone who has the same temperament and makes him feel comfortable looking at him as his home, as a gentle hometown where he can rest.
And Jiang Heng just needs such a leader - a leader who, once he recognizes that someone is good, will treat him in the bottom of his heart for a long time as long as the other party does not let him down.
Jiang Heng had never been so clear about the emperor's thoughts.
As for his own way forward, he became as clear as the clouds and fog.
She will do well the card that the emperor lacks, treat him with sincerity, and maintain her current disposition.In this way, the emperor will be her eternal super SSR card.
In the coming year, the Chuxiu Palace newcomers will learn the rules, of course, the Empress Dowager and her queen will have the full power to decide, and concubines Xi and Concubine Yu who are of sufficient status will naturally follow and help.
On the contrary, Jiang Heng's concubine Xin Xin: In terms of it, it is the main position, and participating in some important palace affairs is a kind of flattery, and it also increases her prestige among the newcomers in the future.
But this matter is very subtle: Concubine Xin has basically replaced the concubine Nian now, and has become the concubine who is the only favorite. If she participates in this matter, if she does not do a little thing well, there may be gossip fermenting, saying Concubine Xin is proud of being favored, and as a favored concubine, she naturally wants to suppress the newcomer.
Therefore, the empress specially summoned her here today, and communicated to her in advance.
I also want to see Concubine Xin's reaction: if she is happy and eager to participate in some decision-making palace affairs, then the queen will share some of the power with her. That's it.
Unexpectedly, after I finished talking about this matter, I saw that Concubine Xin was still smiling, and I couldn't see Concubine Xin's tendency for a while.
In fact, Jiang Heng just inspired the "community animal mechanism" and put on a standard subordinate face to the leader. According to past workplace experience, what the leader said in person, even if it is an appointment and work that he is extremely unwilling, it is best to keep smiling and listen to it. After good language, I always refuse.
If you just think of a reason to fill in the past and be dismissed by the leader with reasonable grounds, then it will be difficult to get rid of this task.
But the queen was a little surprised by Concubine Xin's determination.
She has always felt that Concubine Xin is a person with a good personality and good destiny, naturally well-behaved, and her character is just between the calmness of Concubine Xi and the liveliness of Concubine Yu.It was also because the empress had never discussed any serious palace affairs with Jiang Heng in the past, they basically just mentioned a few words in the group meeting, and in private, they basically only talked about Minmin's affairs.
This is the first time to explain important matters alone, but found that Concubine Xin is no less than Concubine Xi in terms of calmness.
So the queen simply said directly: "You know this matter in your heart, go back and think about it later. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has just handed over the draft of next year's draft, and this matter is not urgent at all."
Jiang Heng also realized at this time that the queen should come to show her favor and remind her.
So I thanked the queen, and then I went to the Tongle Academy and left.Coming out of the Queen's Palace and still on the way back, Jiang Heng began to write a plan in his head, how could he justifiably have nothing to do with this matter.
However, none of her plans came to fruition.
The emperor wiped this matter away from the root.
The draft held every three years, if there is no great war and funeral in the country, it is impossible not to do it. Girls of the right age in the Manchurian Eight Banners, if they do not go through the draft, they will not be able to marry on their own.
Unless, as in the 12th to 20th years of Kangxi, the imperial court was busy pacifying San Francisco, the draft was delayed twice, and the draft was suspended due to the force majeure of the royal family, then the girls could be compiled by each banner after they surpassed it. Before going to the imperial court, the emperor's imperial pen will confirm the approval before he can engage in marriage by himself, and the process is strict.
Besides, compared to the girls of the Eight Banners, those princes and grandsons of the royal family are actually more looking forward to the three-year draft—waiting to marry a wife.
If Lord Kangxi was able to give birth, he didn't manage all the important matters of the marriage of his sons before he was alive, so they all belonged to the elder brother, Lord Yongzheng.The first emperor's princes started from the sixteenth year old, and they are all under 20 years old this year. Without Ama as the master, wouldn't he have to rely on his emperor's brother to choose a famous lady from the talent show to marry him?
Here are the unmarried younger brothers, and the unmarried elder nephews!
Brothers who are about the same age as the emperor, the children are all starting in the high single digits, and some of them can't handle it. When they reach the age of marriage, don't they all stretch their necks and wait for the beautiful girl to point out marriage?
The draft is imperative.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs issued a draft document on drafting work in triplicate, and the emperor, empress dowager, and empress each handed one copy.
After all, if the show girl is going to enter the palace to run for election at the end of February next year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will start preparations at this moment: it will take more than three months to make statistics and confirmation work for each banner in the early stage.
But the emperor first kept the papers from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and did not issue them. After the papers were approved that night, he went to live in the moon altar where the empress dowager lived.
After dinner, the queen mother was walking around the gravel path in the small garden in a cool breeze.
Seeing the emperor arrived, the queen mother ordered someone to serve tea, and left the emperor to talk: "It just so happens that you are here, and Aijia wants to tell you about the next year's draft."
In addition to the draft, the queen mother is also thinking about Hongshi.
She already knew that the emperor didn't like Hongshi, the eldest son, and Hongshi was really not very up-to-date.But the Empress Dowager is basically in a state of blind optimism for her grandchildren, just like all the doting grandmothers in the world: the child is not sensible?That is, he has not grown up yet!Just wait until you marry a daughter-in-law!
So when Concubine Qi made a mistake, the Empress Dowager took advantage of the New Year's Eve to pay attention to the daughters of relatives and nobles in the Eight Banners, thinking of marrying a good wife for Hongshi, so that the father-son relationship between her son and grandson could be eased.
This is the top priority.
The emperor saw that the empress dowager ordered someone to make tea, obviously he wanted to have a long talk, but it was also in line with his wishes, the mother and son went up the steps and sat down at the highest moon pavilion.
The "Yuetan Yunju" where the Empress Dowager lives is the most open and highest courtyard in the Old Summer Palace, which means the bright moon in the clouds.
Just because the Empress Dowager lives here, Jiang Heng has lost several kilograms since he came to the Old Summer Palace.After giving birth to Minmin, even though she tried her best to control it, she still gained a little weight, so she spent these days climbing mountains and sending Minmin to the queen mother.
Although it is a bit strenuous to go up and down, the moonlight is really excellent at night in this Moon Altar Cloud Residence.
As a result, the mother and son sat down without opening their mouths for a while, and they both looked at the bright and bright moon, each feeling refreshed and happy, forgetting the mundane things.
It wasn't until the tea and fruit were served that the emperor waved the maid back: "Go and add a cloak to the empress, I don't need you to wait here."
Pour tea for the Queen Mother himself.
The empress dowager looked at the emperor, eyes full of love almost overflowing: "Before the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor has been busy with the summer harvest for a long time, and a few days ago there was an investigation of drugs in the palace. I've lost weight."
The emperor met the Empress Dowager's gaze, and also showed a little smile: "My summer is always a little cooler than winter, so don't worry about it, Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager took a sip of tea, then slowly raised her head: "Speaking of this drug, Aijia heard that it was Hong Shi who brought it into the palace first, and that Concubine Qi took it by mistake. Fortunately, you No entrance."
Seeing that the emperor was about to frown at the mention of Hongshi, the queen mother sighed: "Young child Hongshi, the Ai family knows your heart. However, this is all because Concubine Qi didn't teach her well. This child is also taught to be unsteady." After putting the blame on Concubine Qi, the queen mother threw out her own theory of marrying a daughter-in-law in a timely manner: "When the draft is next year, the emperor will choose a good Fujin for him and persuade him carefully. gone."
The emperor had planned for Hongshi's marriage long ago, and he must choose a powerful Mongol princess to restrain him, and it doesn't have to be the daughter of a Mongolian prince. It can be a little lower, but it is good to have ideas and temper.
So the emperor said: "Emperor Niang, don't worry, Hongshi is always my son, and I have already started picking Fujin for him."
After talking about current events in Hong Kong, the emperor mentioned another matter about the draft: this draft should be all selected, and some suitable girls should be selected to marry relatives of the right age. Fujin to prepare for the big wedding, so that An Huang Ama is in the spirit of heaven.
The queen mother nodded while listening.
Speaking of this, the emperor changed his voice: "But there are already enough people in the harem, so I won't keep anyone."
The Empress Dowager was surprised immediately, the hand that was supposed to drink tea was raised in mid-air, but it stopped and forgot to continue to lift it.
He only asked three times: "What? No one is kept in the harem? How can this be done?"
The empress dowager's reaction, the emperor was also prepared, he didn't answer directly, instead he waved his hand and called Su Peisheng who was standing under the pavilion to come up.
Su Peisheng held out several brochures.
The emperor picked up the top one and handed it to the queen mother himself.
The Empress Dowager hesitated and did not accept it: Emperor Shunzhi had set up an iron sign in the palace, and the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics.
Although Lord Kangxi did not spend much time with Emperor Shunzhi, the Ama, and he was taught by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang to be good at government affairs, but when he was an adult, he implemented the rule of "no political interference in the harem" very well.Not to mention those concubines with sons, even the three queens he had established, none of them dared to talk about the past affairs.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager didn't accept it, the emperor passed it forward again and said sincerely: "These papers are not related to military secrets, and they are all papers from several months ago. They have been dealt with long ago. My son asked my mother to read it. I just want to use this matter to explain to Er Niang what my son is doing all day, and what kind of emperor he wants to be."
He could hear the emperor's heartfelt and heartfelt words, so the queen mother took it over.
She took out the folded gold-wire presbyopic glasses hanging from her purse, and looked at the first booklet the emperor handed her.
This is the copy of Jue Luo's Man Bao, governor of Zhejiang Province. The reason why the emperor selected this share for the Queen Mother is not only because this is an ordinary job and does not involve military aircraft, but also because this Jue Luo Man Bao is a serious red belt and loves Xin. The Jue Luo family is said to be the one who can best unite with the royal family.
But even an official with this status has a lot of selfishness.
This is the booklet for November.
It is about the fact that many ships from Zhejiang were forced to stay in the Shandong river because of the freezing of the northern river in winter and could not return.
This is also a common occurrence. The queen mother looked down and saw that Manbao also proposed a solution: Zhejiang Liangdao Jiang Guoying planned to pay 15 taels of silver from water transportation, and build more than 580 new ships for emergency.In the next five years, these [-] new ships will be used to gradually replace more than [-] old ships that have reached the full age of the water transport, and the replacement ships will no longer receive money from the Ministry of Households to balance the accounts.
The Empress Dowager looked at it once, and asked rather puzzled: "Ai's family doesn't understand foreign affairs, but if you want to compare it with the affairs of the harem—if the old things are not available for a while, the order to move Ku Yin to build new ones can be regarded as an emergency measure. Isn't that okay?"
Old ships always have to be replaced. Isn’t it good to spend money in advance to build new ships, which can not only solve the urgent need of insufficient ships in winter, but also use them for the future?
The emperor nodded: "Yes, if you only look at the booklet on Manbao, it is a clever and unconstrained method. I'm afraid I will reward him and Jiang Guoying!"
Then the emperor nodded, and Su Peisheng handed over another booklet.
The Empress Dowager noticed that these folders were packed in a wooden box with a lock, which can be seen to be closely folded.
After the queen mother took it for a closer look, she couldn't help being furious: "How dare Manbao and Jiang Yingying deceive the emperor like this?"
These seals were made by Gao Bin of Suzhou Weaving and Huang Qifeng of Shandong Liangdao and others.
The secret zhe on the Shandong Liangdao is intended to show that although the river in the Shandong area is frozen, they Shandong Liangdao had anticipated this, so they ordered the Zhejiang ship to return early. 'I heard' that Zhejiang Liangdao wanted to build new ships on the grounds that the ships were trapped in Shandong, but they really didn't know why.He didn't dare to speculate, so he secretly reported it to the emperor.
This is obviously a person who doesn't want to take the blame and shakes his head desperately: Zhejiang's money and boats are its own tricks!We don't know anything, don't get involved in my Dashan officialdom, please the emperor to investigate clearly!
As for Gao Bin, who is in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhezi's complaint is more straightforward: Jiang Guoying has a deficit of 10 taels of silver on the grain road, so he used the shipbuilding matter as an excuse to go to Zhejiang Governor Man Bao, intending to withdraw Zhejiang water transport taxes Fill your gaps!As for the [-] new ships, they were not newly built, but Jiang Guoying sent people to blackmail merchants and private households on the water transport, forcing them to requisition civilian ships, and repairing them a little to make up for the number.
The Empress Dowager looked up at the Emperor.
Facing his biological mother who only cares about him in this life, the emperor said: "Er Niang asked me before why the number of officials who can read secret papers has increased by dozens of times compared to Huang Ama's years, and read so many papers every day. , didn’t I overwork myself—now that’s the answer.”
"If Shandong Liangdao can't pass the secret papers, if Gao Bin and other Zhejiang officials can't make secret papers, then I will approve the papers that are fully guaranteed."
"Once such an order is followed, there will be nothing wrong with full insurance, nothing wrong with Jiang Yingying, and even my Zhejiang grain road will be fine-it will be a good thing for Jiang Yingying to make up for my deficit."
"But my mother, I am afraid that hundreds of households on the water transport will go bankrupt. As a man, Jiang Yingying will not blackmail those Cao Ding who have official connections, I am afraid that he will persecute the people who have no backing. Ding Caonong’s family has lived on a boat for several generations, and if the boat is lost, the whole family will throw themselves into the water and die.”
The emperor covered the tightly folded wooden box with his hands and opened them as far as possible, as if he hoped that his hands could cover the whole world and protect all his subjects.
But people are not Buddha, one hand can cover the world.
"Therefore, I can only give my heart, ears, and mind to the world. If I can save six hundred households in Cao Ding by writing more papers in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, how can I not do it!"
The Empress Dowager looked at her son with sore eyes.
She still remembered that when the late emperor was here, the emperor claimed to be the number one idler in the world, just in order not to reveal his desire to seize the heir apparent and make the late emperor suspicious.
At that time, the child must have suffered a lot.
Mourning the hardships of the people's livelihood, but at that time, I could only stand by the hardships of the people's livelihood.
The queen mother couldn't help taking off her glasses, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said, "The emperor's painstaking mourning family knows nothing in case. But these years, even though the mourning family is in the harem, they have heard many important things that the emperor has planned since he ascended the throne. Just like It’s not a big deal to turn the people into the mu, reform the land and return it to the local people, and the officials and gentry work as one, but it’s all done in a few years.”
"The Ai family can't stop you from changing the court guidelines, but sometimes it hurts when you think about it, and you don't know how you survived, how many memorials you have to approve and how many people you have to see every day, and how busy you are."
The emperor only showed a weary smile.
Where did Queen Mother know.
After completing these things within four years, it is already the result of his control.In his previous life, all these things were done within two years of his ascension to the throne, and the battle to put down the Qinghai rebellion was even added during this period.This life is already the result of slowing down the pace as much as possible and making up for the previous omissions.
Of course the emperor looked tired, but more of it was his determination to live and die: "I only want to work with one heart and one mind, to make a living for the people of the country and to live in peace."
"Emperor Niang also knows that I really don't feel that way about wine and sex, so I don't need to indulge."
"Nowadays, there are quite a few people in the harem. I feel that Concubine Xin gets along comfortably and happily. If I go to the harem, I want to go to the Yonghe Palace to really relax and enjoy myself. Therefore, it is enough to have the Yonghe Palace. No matter how many I don't have time to go, it just adds to the matter."
There is no need for the emperor to explain, the queen mother already understands what he means: there are many concubines in the harem who have never served or even met the concubine. Summoned to choose one by one to see if these concubines are acceptable.
The emperor's will is not here.
It's just that this matter was too sudden, the queen mother still drank another cup of tea, and after a moment of silence, she accepted it.
In the end, he smiled in relief, and asked the emperor directly: "Does Concubine Xin know about the fact that you don't keep newcomers?" There is also a sentence hidden behind, isn't Concubine Xin determined to be the same as the imperial concubine back then, and is determined to always be pampered?
In fact, the queen mother directly asked this question, and the emperor was relieved: it can be seen that the queen mother also likes her very much.If you ask directly, it will appear that there is no grudge. If the Queen Mother refuses to mention Concubine Xin, maybe there is prejudice in her heart.
The emperor came to talk to the queen mother today, and it was from the bottom of his heart.
Not to mention letting concubines take care of themselves.
He always treats his courtiers with a clear decree, "Whether the future generations of the world think it is right or wrong, I will take care of it, and I have nothing to do with my ministers", and he does not let his courtiers take the blame for himself.
What's more, Concubine Xin is his own, since he came to tell the Empress Dowager about this matter, he must worry that the Empress Dowager may misunderstand that Concubine Xin is arrogant and unwilling to enter the harem as a newcomer.
The emperor shook his head: "She doesn't know. I just thought about it myself, so I came to tell the empress first."
The queen mother also sighed and smiled at the end: "Forget it. Let's go with the emperor. You are not the emperor who waited for the eight-year-old enthronement like the first emperor, and the Ai family is not the queen mother who can worry about hard work like the queen mother Xiaozhuang. There is nothing I can do for you. You can't rely on your status as an elder to force you to do something you don't like."
"If you fail to live up to your ambition to serve the people of the world, Aijia will be sorry for you."
The emperor had a heart-to-heart talk with the empress dowager for a long time that night, and he felt that the block in his heart had been relieved a lot.
The talk is about the current life, but the queen mother doesn't know that what the emperor makes up for is the deep regrets of the past.
In his previous life, he was much busier than this, and it can be said that he was much more desperate.
But people are not stone mills, they can spin forever without emotion.Sometimes the emperor also felt exhausted and wronged, but there were no elders and relatives who could tell.
The Buddhist hall in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, like the side hall of the Qianqing Palace, is hung with the portraits of the former emperor and the empress dowager.
Sometimes the emperor was so tired that he would go to the Buddhist hall and sit cross-legged, talking to Ama Erniang and complaining.It's just that he knows in his heart that what he confides to is the caring and considerate parents he imagined.It's not the real Lord Kangxi and Empress Dowager Xiao Gongren who have passed away.After all, his real parents, one is the emperor with an unpredictable heart; the other is a younger brother who is more partial to him, and after he ascended the throne, he even refused to be the mother-in-law of the empress dowager.
From the beginning to the end, the elders who can listen to him are only fabricated images of love.
But now, he finally has an elder who will comfort him and understand all his decisions.
The empress dowager's tears just now also fell on the emperor's heart, filling up the sadness he felt sitting in front of the two portraits many years ago.
"Go to Suxin Hall." Out of the Yuetan Yunju, the emperor sat on the sedan chair and ordered.
However, when the emperor arrived at Suxintang, he was told that concubine Xin was not in the palace, but had gone to see the fish in the goldfish pond.
The emperor stopped the inner eunuch from going to send a message to invite the letter concubine to come back to meet her, and said only: "I will go over."
After talking with the Empress Dowager just now, the Emperor didn't feel tired. Instead, he felt an unprecedented sense of openness and the excitement of continuing to forge ahead with the understanding of his relatives.
Also urgently wanted to talk to Concubine Xin.
Can she understand her own choice?Such a solemn and long-term trust from him, will she take it up and stay by her side forever in the future?
More than ten years in the previous life have confirmed many people here, but she is the only one who is new in this world.
The emperor originally just glanced at it casually, but accidentally bumped into the center of his eyes.
Jiang Heng leaned on the railing, and didn't ask anyone to light a lamp to gather the fish. Instead, he just looked at the goldfish with fan-like tails swimming freely by the palace lanterns lit on the road at night, and was fascinated by himself.
After putting her daughter to sleep, she came out to relax and think about the working environment after next year's draft.
For some reason, looking at the swimming goldfish, her train of thought gradually went astray, from the fact that a newcomer would enter the palace next year, to the emperor's almost ascetic indifference towards the harem.
She originally thought that she would not have to think about the issue of exclusive pet until the newcomer entered the palace three years later - she always felt that during the period of pregnancy, it was enough to take off the hat of exclusive pet for herself.
Pregnant concubines will be removed from the green card, and the emperor should look for other cards.
But the emperor really didn't turn over the card all the time, so that the hat on her head was even tighter.
Of course, this also has something to do with the emperor not being in the palace for a long time - when she was pregnant, the emperor was planning to shovel away Nian Gengyao and Longkodo at the same time, and went to the Mulan paddock for a long time.
To shovel away these two deep-rooted courtiers requires full preparations before and after, and there is no time to walk in the harem.
Jiang Heng remembered that the emperor didn't visit her much during that time.
She became more and more divergent: in fact, when she was not pregnant, the emperor's flops were very limited, almost less than once a month on average.Therefore, Zhang Yuzhu in the respect room was worried about being thin and out of shape for a while.
"Giant panda." Jiang Hengfu said to himself on the railing, the emperor looked like a giant panda.
From a quantitative point of view, emperors are as rare as giant pandas.In addition, the emperor is similar to giant pandas. It is said that giant pandas go into heat once a year, which is a standard cold physique.
So Jiang Heng still remembers the fact that the emperor came here for two consecutive days on the grassland, because it was so special, it was unprecedented!
Could it be that if you are a human being in the next life, you really see through the world of mortals, and you can't do without those worldly desires?
Jiang Heng looked like a fish in front of his eyes, but in fact, the emperor turned over slowly in a panda costume, and couldn't help laughing again.
"What are you thinking about?"
If it weren't for the high railings, Jiang Heng might be so scared that he would fall into the goldfish pond.
The emperor's voice suddenly rang in his ears, it was like thunder.
She answered reflexively from the bottom of her heart: I was thinking about whether the price of your reincarnation being confiscated, Your Majesty.Of course, such an answer to death can only be thought about in my heart.
So he just shook his head on the face: "The concubine is fascinated by watching the fish."
The emperor smiled, took her wrist and gently pulled her up: "It's getting cold on the rock at night, don't lie on the railing, carefully let the cold air enter your body."
Hearing his meticulous care, Jiang Heng recalled that he often talked about the way of keeping in good health with himself, and another idea came to his mind, whether the emperor took drugs in his previous life so that he had a shadow, so he was especially abstinent and keeping in good health...
And the emperor saw that she was always out of her mind, and thought she was shocked by the news that a newcomer would enter the palace next year.
"Is it the empress... or the empress who told you about the entry of the beautiful girl into the palace next year?"
Jiang Heng lowered his head and replied: "The Empress and my concubines talked about it once."
She then wanted to confess to the big leader that although she was wearing the hat of being a pet, she would never suppress the newcomer's attitude: "The empress also said that the concubine should learn some palace affairs, and the newcomer will enter the Chuxiu Palace... ..."
Seeing her talking with her head down like this, the emperor interrupted: "There will be no newcomers entering the palace next year."
Sure enough, she raised her head in astonishment, and her eyes suddenly lit up astonishingly, like stars flashing suddenly in an extremely clear night sky.
The emperor was irritated by this attitude.
But Jiang Heng was really shocked: Could it be that, the emperor, you really embarked on the road of banning and wanting to change your lifespan!
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Under her shocked gaze, the emperor gradually calmed down, and the next words came calmly, as naturally as the wind stops the rain.
"I have so many things I want to do, but I just don't feel like I have enough time."
The emperor walked slowly along the edge of the goldfish pond, motioning for Jiang Heng to follow him.
But Su Peisheng led the people back a little further.
"When I open my eyes every day, there are countless things in my mind. Before I go to bed, I always think about what to do tomorrow, thinking about where I should receive the note recently, and why it has not been delivered yet."
"If it wasn't for my body being unable to bear it, I might have been sitting in the Hall of Mental Cultivation forever."
The emperor turned his head and smiled at her.
"That's why I'm really tired. When I want to leave the court for a while, I just look forward to a place where I can calm down. Now that I have you and Minmin, I feel that my troubles have disappeared after seeing you. It's enough." Now, why bother to add more people and things to the palace."
There is a limit to the amount of energy and emotions a person can expend.
Jiang Heng still remembered that she had played a game simulating being an emperor before.
In the game, there are only twelve hours a day. If the 'emperor' chooses to see his concubines, he will not be able to see more ministers. If he chooses to conquer the barbarians to gain military merit, he will be doomed to have less time to manage the internal affairs of the capital. If he chooses to indulge in pleasure, he will be doomed to lose control. Live in the government.
This is true for games, let alone real life, which is far more tiring than these.
The reason why the emperor has been single-line pampering his concubine for many years is precisely because the previous dynasty was multi-line parallel, or the ultimate multi-line parallel.
And the only single thread in the harem breaks from time to time like a kite thread and runs away, going to the limit first to get busy with the front.
This is his choice.
The emperor thinks that Jiang Heng really looks like him - when Jiang Heng was playing the game of simulating the emperor, he set his diligence value to a high level, but the collection of beauties in the harem is very barren, usually for the sake of "health" Value' will stop brushing the hard work value, and occasionally go to the harem for a while.
At that time, she was just like the emperor at this moment.
Then Jiang Heng knew what he wanted.
She stopped and tugged at the emperor's sleeve: "The concubine will always be with you like this. Yonghe Palace will always be a place for the emperor to relax and feel at ease."
What he needs is a charging station for life.The stress of governing the country is a great drain, and he needs a place where he can rest temporarily.
The emperor felt enough after hearing what she said.
Now that she can understand, her choice and love are not paid by mistake.
He stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Heng's hand, and seemed to be answering irrelevant questions: "Many courtiers feel that I am harsh, and their emotions and anger are difficult to figure out. Chang Shangzhe himself was terrified, listening to the sacred teachings, and terrified all day long."
The emperor shook his head: "Actually, my true thoughts and true hadiths have already been said countless times. I have written to many of my ministers: the only word between the emperor and his ministers is honesty! As long as the emperor and his ministers are of the same mind for the country and the people, they will give birth to them." I don't listen to the wind, I just try to be clever and speculate on my mind."
Jiang Heng looked at the emperor, he was telling her that all he needed was sincerity.
But in fact, she already knew.
She has read many scriptures written by Zhu Zhu: "I wrote down sincerely with many ministers that I hope that my monarch and ministers will be sincere and united."
In this respect, he frankly does not look like an emperor.Maybe the world will stare at Longke for many years and talk about Gengyao, but not see how the emperor trusted and treated Shisanye, Zhang Tingyu, Ertai and others generously from beginning to end.In his whole life, he has never failed any of his courtiers, and he has never failed any of them. Not to mention the two princes in Prince Yi's mansion, he also has an iron hat king; he gave Ertai and Zhang Tingyu the honor of the Taimiao.
Especially Ertai, Li Wei, and Tian Wenjing are not without flaws. They have also made mistakes when doing things, and they are not even minor mistakes.But because of their righteousness, for their loyalty, and for their diligence, the emperor forgave them all and wrote a long book to teach them how to do business better.
Such a leadership is really a capable courtier's Bole.
Anyone who has ever worked will know how difficult it is to meet such a leader.
If this is a card game, then both she and the emperor are lucky.
For her, the Emperor's Preference is the strongest SSR (Super Super Rare) card that can be used in the game server.
And to the emperor, she was probably a super kryptonian who wanted anything and everything, but she was born with the card that she hadn't drawn before.She may not be the strongest and best card, but she is just the right card for him to like.
They fit right into each other.
The emperor needs someone who has the same temperament and makes him feel comfortable looking at him as his home, as a gentle hometown where he can rest.
And Jiang Heng just needs such a leader - a leader who, once he recognizes that someone is good, will treat him in the bottom of his heart for a long time as long as the other party does not let him down.
Jiang Heng had never been so clear about the emperor's thoughts.
As for his own way forward, he became as clear as the clouds and fog.
She will do well the card that the emperor lacks, treat him with sincerity, and maintain her current disposition.In this way, the emperor will be her eternal super SSR card.
