[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

The fact that Zhu Mingcheng handed over the military power immediately caused an uproar. As long as there were people with connections, they would know about it when Zhu Mingcheng's resignation was submitted to the Privy Council.

Almost everyone in the palace was watching Zhu Guiren's jokes, like saying that on the third day, three nobles, six concubines and nine concubines came to pay their respects to the queen, because it is not the day to greet the empress, everyone can sit down and talk, Liu Shurong He was the first to speak, and said: "I don't know, but you have heard that the great general Zhu has submitted his resignation and asked to return the military power. Even the military amulet was sent to the imperial court."

When the concubines heard about it, they immediately went to see nobleman Zhu, their eyes intertwined on nobleman Zhu, and then shifted to Jia Yan.

Zhu Guiren was furious, and said: "Liu Shurong, you are well-informed. I don't even know about it, but you do."

In any case, since the previous dynasty, there has been an iron law that the harem must not interfere in politics. Although this article was actually useful when it was first established, most of the time it was just a decoration, but according to the rules, Zhu Mingcheng just made it the day before I handed in my resignation letter, but neither the cabinet nor the Privy Council approved it. The concubine in the harem knew it, and it was wrong to discuss it in detail.

On this point, even Jia Yan cannot say that Mr. Zhu was wrong.

Jia Yan could only say: "What the nobleman said is true. From now on, Liu Shurong will be banned for half a year and fined for one year. Since you are the first offender in front of this palace, you will be given a lighter sentence. I also hope that all the sisters can learn from it."

Liu Shurong never expected that she would be grounded directly, and her face was red and white at the same time.But she also knew that if this matter got serious, or if it got to the emperor, it would be her who would be the one to blame.Therefore, I could only obediently stand up, plead guilty, and then said: "The concubine was reckless, and the concubine is guilty."

Wu Chongrong said: "It turns out that when General Zhu returned to Beijing this time, he actually had such an idea?! After all, it is General Zhu, who is not as knowledgeable as others. However, has General Zhu decided on a successor general? Northwest can't afford to lose something." .”

Right now Zhu Guiren hates his brother's resignation the most, but he can't fault Wu Chongrong, so he can only say: "My brother is getting old and has fought in the battlefield for many years, so why is it strange to want to retire?"

Jia Yan said, "Master Zhu, is your brother Guigeng this year?"

"If you go back to your mother, my brother will be forty-five this year."

"Ah, that's really not a young man." Jia Yan said with a smile, "No wonder General Zhu submitted his resignation letter."

Concubine Zhao Jing also smiled and said: "Yes, ma'am, my brother is already a grandfather at this age. I just don't know how the imperial court will arrange General Zhu."

Concubine Zhou De smiled and said: "Naturally, I agreed to General Zhu's request, and then arranged for General Zhu to take up a post in the Privy Council. In the future, if there is any war in the court, you can consult General Zhu's opinion. Isn't it always like this before?"

According to the rules set by Emperor Taizu of the Great Jin Dynasty, all generals, when they are not leading the army, will take posts in the Privy Council, acting as military staff officers, and explaining military affairs to the king.

These are all old examples.Just like Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan, the cousins ​​of the Jia family, both once served in the Privy Council with the title of Duke.

The youngest Yang Chongyuan, the grandson of Yang Taiwei, said with a smile: "But, isn't it often performed like this in dramas? The courtiers resign, the king keeps them, the courtiers resign, the king keeps them, and the courtiers ask for the third time." resignation, and then the king agreed with tears..."

Before Yang Chongyuan finished speaking, everyone started laughing:

"My dear sister, it's a play, and it's for everyone to see."

The secular customs in the ancient times were very different from the present. If it was in the ancient times, it would be fine. But in the present, if the king still plays with his courtiers, it will not be a good story for the monarch and his ministers, but start to be jealous The courtiers are even the best proof of murderous intentions.

Therefore, the drama of resigning again and again will only appear on the stage. In reality, if the king plays this trick with his courtiers, it is basically the same as forcing his courtiers to rebel.

Everyone laughed together, only Mrs. Zhu's face was livid.

When Yang Chongyuan said that, wasn't he just watching her joke?Who doesn't know that her brother submitted his resignation after speaking with her in Honghui Palace.These people don't say it on the surface, but in private, who doesn't laugh at her that after losing the support of her third brother Yun Qiwei, she will lose the support of her second brother, the Northwest General.

Thinking of this, nobleman Zhu stayed awake the whole time, and now his face is decorated with powder.

Which woman in this palace is not empty and boring, and has a lot of time to think about what is there or not?She used makeup and powder to modify her face. In the eyes of these concubines, isn't there no silver 300 taels here?

But even so, Zhu Guiren didn't want to be seen as a joke.

But now, Yang Chongyuan's words were like a slap, slapping her face heavily.

Zhu Gui said indifferently: "Yes, my second brother is not too young, so he should enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren."

Wu Chongrong said: "But my concubine remembers that both of General Zhu's children died in the battle. Your Majesty, has General Zhu thought about continuing?"

Although Zhu Mingcheng is full of injuries, although Zhu Mingcheng is already very old, but this world is like this, not to mention that he is 45 years old this year, he is 54 years old. If he wants to marry a young and vigorous noble daughter, he can do it of. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

It's just that some people are reluctant to part with their prostitute daughters, and there is absolutely no problem with concubine daughters who are raised as if they were prostitutes.

Zhu Guiren immediately said: "Oh? Sister Wu would say that, but you want to recommend your own niece?"

Wu Chongrong said: "I don't have any nieces, but I do have one."

Concubine Zhou De and Wu Chongrong have been oppressed by noble Zhu for many years. Under the same hatred and hatred, they have a tacit understanding. Seeing this, they immediately said: "The niece that Sister Wu said is..."

In the court, this title can be based on age or status.When Wu Chongrong was still Concubine Wu Xian, Concubine Zhou De was called Sister Wu, and she hasn't changed her name until now.This is also the carefulness of Concubine Zhou De.If she changed her words, Wu Chongrong would naturally have opinions in her heart, and naturally, the friendship for many years would fade away.

Also because of Concubine Zhou De's thoughtfulness, even today, the two of them are still allies, especially when it comes to Mrs. Zhu's matter, they have always cooperated tacitly.

Sure enough, Wu Chongrong said: "Ms. De Concubine, you are being polite. The niece I am talking about is the concubine of my sister's family. Her mother was originally my sister's dowry girl. Because my sister is inconvenient, she took care of me. My sister once came back, I don’t want her to be lucky, and gave birth to a daughter in one fell swoop. She is 15 years old this year, and she also looks like a flower. Although it is said to be a concubine, it is my sister who raised her as her own, so my sister wants to give birth to her. She's looking for a good marriage."

Marrying a half-grown old man, how can you say a good marriage?

If these words were placed in the original Grand View Garden, they would definitely come from Shi Xiangyun's mouth.

But in the palace, no one will think that there is anything wrong with this sentence.Because the current emperor is also in his forties.The current emperor is two years younger than Zhu Mingcheng, but because he has been well maintained and pampered for many years, he is not as old as Zhu Mingcheng, with a weathered face.But where is the age? If it is said that marrying a 45-year-old person is not a good marriage, then what are the concubines chosen to enter the palace this time, including the empress who is sitting above?

Even if the complaints in my heart are like waves, on the surface, everyone still has to say:

"After all, it's Sister Wu's house, but it's different from ordinary people."

"That's not true. The sister of Sister Wu's family is really very virtuous. Since this child has such a aunt, it's not bad to think about it. What do you think, noble lady?"

Zhu Gui was so angry that he was half dead.

She said coldly: "Sister Wu's kindness, I appreciate it. However, my brother once said that he is not young, and when a girl marries, he must be a ready-made mother, and he will give it to the two concubines below." To handle the marriage, I need a woman who is older, calmer, and more thoughtful. I don’t care about my status and family background, and it doesn’t matter if I don’t have a dowry. As long as the girl has a good character, I have never had this niece of sister Wu. I've heard of it, so it's hard to say whether it's good or bad. If it's the handkerchief from the empress's old boudoir, then it's good."

The implication of Zhu Guiren's words is that he is naturally dissatisfied with the candidate proposed by Wu Chongrong. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Jia Yan didn't expect Mrs. Zhu to pull herself into the water, she was really stunned for a moment, and then said: "Mr. Zhu, why did you suddenly mention this? I was at home in the old days, and apart from a few sisters of my own, I have nothing to like Hand the handkerchief."

It's not that Jia Yan said, it's really, it's really Jia's house.

Whether it's Jia's mother above, or Jia She, Mrs. Jia Zhengxing's wife, Mrs. Wang below, they are tyrannical at home, but outside, they are consistent.

Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about Jia Mu. Except for going to the palace to receive a palace banquet as required, she has never seen Jia Mu go out as a guest for more than ten years.The farthest distance that Jiamu traveled was the time when she went to deliver the funeral for Empress Yuan. That was because Empress Yuan was the mother of the country, and Jiamu had to go. For the rest, over the years, Jiamu has traveled the farthest from the house. Either to go to the Qingxu Temple in the original book to have a funeral, or to go to the Ningguo Mansion next door.

Farther away, Jia's mother didn't have this idea.

When Mrs. Wang was in charge, she occasionally took Jia Baoyu and Tanchun to Wang Ziteng's house to visit her uncles and aunts, but when Mrs. Xing took over, Mrs. Xing herself felt inferior to her background, how could she be as active as Mrs. Wang? ?

More importantly, when Mrs. Xing was in charge, Jia Yan had already lived in the Grand View Garden and began to receive education from the concubine. How could there be so much time to get acquainted? !
