I heard my brother is a tyrant

After Chen Lianjiang announced the decree, he looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground, the blank expressions of each one made people feel sympathetic.

Looking at Guo Yu's blank expression, his eyes were straight, as if he had cast a hold on his body, he didn't move for a long time.

Chen Lianjiang bowed slightly, and walked away with steady steps. He really had to deliver the decree, it was important.

Chen Lianjiang laughed so hard that his mouth was crooked all the way, and he arrived at Ye Zhai in Baima Lane happily, and asked Chang Shun with a smile: "Where is the girl?"

"Young lady is at home." Chang Shun asked, "Why is Eunuch Chen here today, but what message does His Majesty want to give Miss?"

"Big happy event, our family is here to deliver the decree." Chen Lianjiang smiled and took out the decree and said, "Hurry up and call all the servants in the mansion."

"Hey, this servant is going to report to the girl."

Chang Shun was about to run away, but Chen Lianjiang slapped his head and scolded: "Chang Shun'er, you are also the person in front of the girl after all, can you calm down, what did I say just now? You go and wait for the people in the house first." Call them all to the front yard, and then invite the girl."

Ye Chu got up early to freshen up and had just had breakfast, and was invited to the main courtyard of the front house by the maid. She took Ye Hui and walked into the hall from the side door. The servants were standing in the courtyard line by line, and asked: " What is this?"

Chen Lianjiang bowed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has an order, girl, your Majesty tells you that you don't need to bow down, just listen."

Ye Chu nodded, and calmly found a chair to sit down.She was sitting in the hall, while Chen Lianjiang stood on the steps at the entrance of the main hall, announcing the decree to the maidservants and guards all over the yard, and handed the decree to Ye Chu after the reading, and saluted happily: "Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the county host!"

"Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the princess!" The servants congratulated and bowed in unison.

Ye Chu accepted this sudden imperial decree well. It was his elder brother's plan to consecrate his mother and rebuild the mausoleum. Originally, he planned to wait until after they got married. He didn't mention it in the past two days. Why did he suddenly I made an order.

Ye Chu seemed to be a little unaccustomed to being suddenly transformed into a princess, and nothing else changed.

The servants were overjoyed at this.In the past, some people attacked the girl, a commoner girl, and prevented her from becoming a queen. Now let's see who dares to talk about their girl's family background.

"By the way, girl..." Chen Lianjiang patted his mouth with a smile, and changed his words with a smile, "Look at the memory of this slave girl, princess, Your Majesty asked the slave girl to tell the princess, tell you to prepare, and he will pick you up later Stay in the palace for a while."

Ye Chu wondered, "Why did you suddenly live in the palace?"

"Princess, look, isn't this written in the imperial decree? Your house is going to be converted into the Princess's Mansion. Your Majesty has merged the original Yongchang Hou's Mansion and Ye's Mansion. The house needs to be repaired, and the gate especially needs to be rebuilt. The regulations of the princess's mansion are here. The Ministry of Industry is expected to start work in the next few days."

Chen Lianjiang said, "Everything in the palace is complete, the princess doesn't need to bring anything, just pack your things with you."

"Understood, then you go back and tell my brother that we will eat dinner in the house before leaving. The kitchen has fresh totoaba."

"Hey, this servant remembers." Chen Lianjiang smiled and bowed, "Princess, that servant will retire."

Officer Ding smiled and said, "Elder-in-law, stay here, our princess is having a great day today, so we must have some rewards." As she spoke, she hurriedly asked Chunchao to get it.

The imperial decree came unexpectedly, the mansion didn't even prepare a reward purse, Chun Chao moved quickly, and hurriedly brought an exquisite purse, filled with a handful of small gold and silver scorpions, and Lady Ding stuffed it to Chen Lianjiang.

"Hey, the princess offered a reward, but the maidservant took it, and the maidservant was also happy."

After receiving the purse, Chen Lianjiang left in a hurry, walked out of the gate, got into the car and left in a hurry.

Chang Shun looked at Chen Lianjiang's back and said with a smile: "It's strange, what is he busy with today, when I see him in the past, I don't have to take the opportunity to put on a show and criticize me."

Chang Shun walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and muttered again: "Our girl has made the princess, you can see him amused, grinning like a trouser waist, what's the matter with them."

Chen Lianjiang was indeed in a hurry to go back, he was in a hurry to go back to watch the excitement.After the imperial decree was announced in the Zichen Palace just now, the expressions of the courtiers kneeling in front of the palace were wonderful, tsk tsk tsk, after all, they were all important court officials, and their faces were so pretty.

When Chen Lianjiang was about to leave, he took a special look at it. Prince Zhong's face turned blue, his eyes were straight, and he didn't come back to his senses.

He went back to the palace and went straight to the Zichen Palace, and saw the empty front of the palace from a long distance, what about this person, are they all gone?

Chen Lianjiang advanced to the hall to return to his orders, and after he finished speaking, he walked out of the hall in small steps, beckoned to the two servants on duty outside the hall, and asked in a low voice: "Tell us quickly, where are the people kneeling in front of the hall? Where did you go? You have no face to go?"

"Hey, it would be better if I left without shame." A little servant said, "Grandfather, it's a pity that you didn't wait a little longer and missed the good show. As soon as you left, King Zhong fell to the ground with a bang. Passed by, straight up, a bunch of people surrounded him shouting and yelling, pinching people, whoops, these grown-ups would lose their composure like this, how decent it is to lose their composure in front of the imperial court."

"and then?"

"Then Imperial Physician Huang came and gave King Zhong a few injections. After waking up, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then rushed into the palace like a lunatic, shouting to see His Majesty, but His Majesty didn't pass it on, so how can we let him in? Ah, and then he was crying and laughing in front of the temple, going crazy."

Another interface said: "Hey, a dignified prince has gone mad. His Majesty ordered the guards to throw him out. Lord Fang advised him to go back first. If he doesn't leave, he will rush into the palace. Ladu can't pull him out." It looked like it was going crazy, but someone slapped it on the back of the neck, knocked it out, and several people carried it away together."

Chen Lianjiang clicked his tongue and said: "The generals supported by King Zhong are not bad, they are very loyal to him."

"Bah, dogs of a feather, don't know right from wrong, no wonder the generals are said to be rough people who sell goods." Another little waiter scolded, "Have these people seen girls themselves? They haven't seen girls before, so how do they know what a girl is?" What kind of person? A bunch of bad old men don't feel ashamed, they speak ill of the girl with red lips and white teeth, and they are aggressive, no wonder His Majesty is so angry."

"There are no rules, I have to be called the princess in the future." Chen Lianjiang reminded.

"Next year, it's time to call you Niangniang again." The little servant giggled, and after laughing, he looked at the hall and asked Chen Lianjiang in a low voice, "Grandfather, if you say so, our princess is really the daughter of the loyal king?"

"Little brat, this is what you should ask?" Chen Lianjiang slapped his head and cursed in a low voice, "What about your brain, didn't you say everything about the imperial decree?

Chen Lianjiang had a moment of fun in his heart. The first-rank lady who protects the country, this title is even higher than Zhong Wang, a county king with a different surname. It is so high that when the tomb is rebuilt in Wudi, the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty have to kneel down in front of Mrs. Ye's tomb in a respectful manner. .

According to the etiquette system, the daughter of the county king can be named the county lord, and only the daughter of the prince can be named the lord of the county. The princess Ye Chu was named according to the rules of the prince. Didn't your majesty deliberately slap the loyal king in the face!

But even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the royal family can't say anything about it. The imperial decree clearly stated that Mrs. Ye Zhen had the grace of saving and nurturing the saint, and His Majesty did not say anything else in the imperial decree. The kindness is as great as heaven. No matter how much you chase after the seal, it is not too much.

It's strange to say that the palace servants in front of the imperial court are all very partial to Ye Chu.Not only because of His Majesty's doting, the youngest daughter's family is delicate and soft, and she takes her time, and her temperament is hard to dislike.Especially after she came, the emperor became easy to serve.

People in front of the imperial court didn't get along with Ye Chu very much. When they were in the palace, Xie Dan's identity became known after the fire in Qingliang Hall, and Ye Chu began to appear in front of the imperial court. Ye Chu was called by Xie Dan to play in Mingquan Hall every day. At lunch, the people in front of the imperial court came into contact with her.But when Ye Chu was in front of the imperial court, the little maids and servants in the imperial court who had been silent and solemn all day became a little more lively.

What happened in the Xuanzheng Palace today made the Yuqian gang so angry that they couldn't help but gloated at their misfortune.

With such a big commotion, Xie Dan didn't have the intention to stay in the palace, and when the sun was westward, he ordered his horses to leave the palace.

When he came back, Ye Chu was sitting in the courtyard swinging on a swing, seeing him coming in, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he asked, "Brother is back?"

Xie Dan didn't say a word, he went straight over and hugged her by the waist, carried her all the way into the room and sat on the bed, put her on his lap, pointed to his face and beckoned her to kiss her.

Ye Chu kissed him on the cheek, and then he grabbed the back of his head and kissed her small mouth. He hugged her greedily, sucked and kissed her soft lips, and kissed her for a long time before letting go.

Ye Chu noticed that his brother seemed to be in a bad mood today, so he asked, "Brother, are you tired today, did someone make you angry again?"

"It's okay, I'm not tired." Xie Dan hugged her into his arms, deeply smelled the fragrance of her hair, hugged her for a while, put his chin on her shoulder, and rubbed his nose against her earlobe and asked, "What shall we have for dinner tonight?" ?”

"Stoaba, Eunuch Chen sent someone to deliver it early in the morning. It's very fresh. I'll let the kitchen do whatever I want." Ye Chu said.

In late autumn, the totoaba is plump, and it is delicious steamed and dry-roasted. The capital is far away from the sea, and you eat more river fish on weekdays. The taste of sea fish is different from that of river fish. Ma Liang's boat was shipped all the way on ice.

Ye Chu said: "In the afternoon, I went to the garden to pick some small roses, and asked the kitchen to make rose brown sugar rolls. Brother, you are not used to sweet staple food. The kitchen said that there are milk steamed buns."

The rose brown sugar roll is a pastry that the kitchen is good at. It is made of freshly opened purple rose petals. The filling is filled with rose sauce and brown sugar, and it is specially rolled into a flower shape. The girl eats fresh and fun.

Xie Dan hugged her in his arms, and listened to her talking softly about food, drink, and daily life, the tyrannical anger in his heart dissipated, and his mood gradually calmed down.

He pulled her to stand up and said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll accompany you to the swing."

Who did Ye Chu want to talk about? She was playing on the swing just now, but he hugged her down as soon as he came back, hugged and kissed her for such a long time, and now he said he wanted to accompany her on the swing.

Ye Chu said: "I don't want to play on the swing anymore, brother, let's go to the yard and feed the parrots and fish. If I live in the palace with you, I won't be able to feed them."

Xie Dan said: "Just ask someone to bring it."

"Forget it, such a big tank is too troublesome." Ye Chu said.

The two walked out the door hand in hand, stood under the corridor and took pine nuts to feed the parrot.Ye Chu asked him: "Brother, we just got married, I live in the palace now, isn't it too good, will people discuss it?"

"There are so many rules, no one can say no to it."

Xie Dan also has to consider her boudoir's reputation, he has already thought of the reasons, he said to the outside world that the Empress Dowager is seriously ill, there are no concubines in his palace, there is no owner in the six palaces, the emperor is busy with government affairs, as a last resort, Ye Chu is the future empress He can only enter the palace to serve him, visit and take care of the Empress Dowager.

Ye Chu nodded, anyway, if he said yes, it would be fine.

Xie Dan said: "By the way, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Rituals, if you become the princess today, there will be a sealed gift, and it should be delivered in the palace in a few days. If you are not at home, tell the servants to keep it."

The princess Ye Chu was not from the Xie family, so he didn't need to go to the Taimiao to salute, but according to the regulations, the rewards of silk, silk, hairpin and ring jewelry were also indispensable.

Ye Chu smiled and said, "Anyway, they belong to both of us. What are you doing moving them around? Chunchao told me today that the warehouse in my yard is full."

Xie Tan said: "There are not too many things. When we get married, you will wear them as a dowry. In the future, you will be the queen of the palace, and you can also use them to reward people."

After the two had dinner, Xie Dan asked Chang Shun to arrange two personal servant girls, Ye Ling Yehui, and Lady Ding to enter the palace afterward, and no one else needed to take them with them, as there were people in the palace, and Lady Zhang stayed to take care of the household. affairs.Not to mention, since Ye Chu was named the princess, all the houses inside and outside the capital will definitely come to send congratulatory gifts in the past few days.

The servants left afterward, while Xie Dan himself rode a horse and led Ye Chu straight into the palace from the Chaoyang Gate, and brought her directly into the Zichen Palace.

Along the way, Xie Dan told Ye Chu that the harem had been unoccupied for a long time, and she was afraid that it would not be cleaned up in a hurry today, so she asked her to stay in Zichen Palace for one night first.

"Isn't Zichen Palace where you live?" Ye Chu asked, "Then I'll go live, where do you live?"

Xie Dan said: "Zichen Palace has plenty of space, but it can't accommodate you. You live in the inner hall, and I live in the side hall. Originally, I also live in the side hall in my daily life. It is more convenient to deal with political affairs and meet people."

The residence Xie Dan prepared for her was Minghua Palace.The Minghua Palace is actually not that big, but it is elegant and quiet, not far from Zichen Palace. It used to be Xie Dan's concubine, Princess Baochang, but it has been vacant since she got married.Xie Dan asked someone to clean it up as soon as possible today. The tables, chairs, desks, curtains and beds were all replaced with new ones. Xie Dan planned to let her live in after cleaning up.

"Tomorrow, I will take you to Minghua Palace to have a look. If there is anything you don't like, you can replace it as soon as possible. Minghua Palace is relatively quiet, and it is also close to you to go to the Imperial Garden." Xie Dan said.

Zichen Palace is the emperor's residence, and it is also the place where he manages his affairs and summons courtiers. If he is not afraid that there will be courtiers in Zichen Palace who will influence her, he will simply let her live in Zichen Palace.

Ye Chu always felt that there was something weird about it, so he thought about it and asked: "Brother, the place hasn't been tidied up yet, why do we have to move into the palace today? Okay."

"It's good to be here today, and the Ministry of Industry will start work on building the princess mansion for you as soon as possible." Xie Dan said, "Don't worry, such a big imperial garden is also very interesting, and it won't cause you any inconvenience."

***

Xie Dan brought Ye Chu into the palace that night, and in the morning of the next day, an uninvited guest really came to Ye's house.

The next morning, Guo Yu, the loyal king of the court, did not come, nor did he ask for leave, so his colleagues had no choice but to ask for leave for him, saying that he was ill.

The morning of this day was exceptionally quiet, especially those who followed Guo Yu yesterday who were the most noisy. They were as quiet as chickens, not daring to lift their heads.

Sitting on it, Xie Dan still looked indifferent and calm, as if yesterday's incident never happened, but the more the emperor behaved like this, the more disturbed the courtiers were, fearing that they would be ordered to be dragged out to be rewarded with a cane in the next moment.

After all, everyone knows how brutal and bloody the emperor is.

It was only at this point that the government and the public suddenly realized that there were so many coincidences. They looked similar, had the same age, and even had the same birth date. This suspicion had been brewing in the capital for so long. It turned out that the county head of Zhongwang Mansion was a fake.

That makes sense.

The father can still be fake, but the mother can't be fake. The children born by others can't be wrong. It turns out that Mrs. Ye Zhen's own daughter was not lost at all, and has been raised by His Majesty's side.The county lord that Zhong Wang's mansion found was naturally a fake.

The county owner who has been raised by King Zhong's Mansion for so many years is a fake Li Daitao. This news spread in and out of the capital overnight, shocking the world.

But it doesn't make sense, it's really unbelievable, after all, Zhongwang's mansion is not an ordinary place, how did they recognize a fake one? Back then, when Zhongwang's mansion was looking for a daughter, there were many people who climbed dragons and phoenixes to pretend to be relatives. She looks like Mrs. Ye, so it's fine if she admits her mistake. How could the little golden lock as a token be on the fake county lord?

During the night in the capital, all the streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants were discussing this matter.Gaomen Mixin has already attracted attention, but in fact, it is also because of the high reputation of Zhongwangfu.

The status of King Zhong’s Mansion is one aspect. King Zhong made great military achievements, but he swore not to marry his dead wife because of his deep affection. Under the circumstances, almost everyone in the capital knew about it. It can be said that Zhongwang Mansion has always attracted attention among the princes and dignitaries in the capital, and everyone knows it.Now that this incident was suddenly exposed, the entire capital was shocked.

The Xuanzheng Hall in the early dynasty was too quiet today, the emperor seemed to be alright, indifferent as usual, as if he had forgotten what happened yesterday.The emperor didn't mention it, and those who made a fuss yesterday were not sure whether they should mention it, whether they should take the initiative to ask for a crime, and so on, each of them felt anxious and regretful to death.

Most of the generals are more straightforward in thinking and acting. What was originally filled with righteous indignation yesterday, how the daughter of the Ye family insulted and killed the daughter of a hero, suddenly became like this, not only angered His Majesty, but also offended the future queen.

Originally, a few people today were ready to welcome the grace of thunder and be scolded and punished. When Eunuch Chen said "retire from the court", the group exited the Xuanzheng Hall, their faces pale and in a daze. After a few words of ridicule, several people wished to ram their heads against the pillars at the entrance of Xuanzheng Hall.

"But we can't blame us all for this matter, how could we know that the county head is fake. Prince Zhong is also so confused, how could he admit his own daughter wrongly." One of them said.

"Hey, stop talking, let's go." The other person tugged at him, and complained in a low voice, "You're still in the palace, don't talk nonsense here, Prince Zhong was dazed when he brought him home yesterday." , he himself felt as if he had fallen five li, insane, holding a sword and insisting on asking the false county master, the false county master is still unconscious at the moment, who is going to ask. Seeing his adoptive son yell at him, ask him about Bingzhou, and tell him to immediately kidnap the adoptive parents of the false county head. You said that Bingzhou is a long way away, and they can’t be tied up all at once.”

"The lower official always feels that this matter is not simple. I'm afraid there is something hidden in it. Is it so easy for the county head of the palace to admit his mistake?"

"Bah, you're so smart, it's up to you to say that!" Another person reprimanded angrily.

"Oh, stop arguing. Let's think about what to do now. I plan to go back and ask my wife to prepare a generous congratulatory gift and send it to the princess's mansion. Let's talk about the rest slowly. It's just that the loyal prince is furious. He vomited blood again yesterday, and it looks really dangerous! Let’s go over and have a look, comfort him, and discuss a countermeasure together.”

The ministers who were retreating on the palace road were in twos and threes. King Min listened to these voices in his ears, turned his head and said to the old Prime Minister Wang next to him: "The prime minister should really thank this king. If I hadn't dragged you to protect the matchmaker, you would I'm afraid it won't look good."

"What is the birth of the phoenix? It turns out that the horoscope originally belonged to the daughter of the Ye family. Isn't it the birth of the phoenix?" Old Prime Minister Wang shook his head and sighed while pulling his beard.

Among the group, only Wei Chen was in a very good mood. As soon as he left the Xuanzheng Hall, he quickly walked away with his hands shaking, as if he couldn't hear the conversations and inquiries of many people behind him.

He went back to White Horse Lane first, and before he reached the door, he saw several carriages parked in the alley, and many people gathered at the door of Ye's house. Wei Chen thought they were all here to give congratulatory gifts, but when he got closer, there was a faint commotion Voices.

Wei Chen rode his horse over quietly, and at a glance, he saw Guo Yu standing at the door of Ye's house with a haggard appearance, blushing and yelling at the guards: "I told you, your princess is my daughter, my daughter! I Don't ask for anything else, let me see her first, go and tell her, can you let me see her?"

"My lord is safe." Lady Zhang came out of the gate, bowed and saluted, "My lord, our princess is indeed not in the mansion, please don't embarrass me."

"Where did she go? Don't lie to me. The king came early in the morning. I haven't seen her go out. She must be in the mansion, she must be." Guo Yu said incoherently, "She is the daughter of the king. She is really my daughter, let me in quickly, let me see her, I will ask her, I have many things to ask her, let me see her first."

"My lord, our princess is really not here, the slaves dare not lie to you."

Lady Zhang bowed and said, "The Empress Dowager is seriously ill, and there is no owner in the sixth palace. Your Majesty took the princess into the palace yesterday afternoon, and went to serve the Empress Dowager."

The author says:

In other words, my family really didn't deliberately stamp it yesterday, it was actually the imperial decree, and my family wrote it for a long time!Does it mean that the slave family is not made to be an emperor...
