Little Lady of the Red Chamber

In the fifth year of Yuanjia, the weather was smooth, the country was prosperous and the people were peaceful. There were regent Ming Wang inside and famous generals headed by Duke Dingguo outside to guard the Quartet. The national power of Daqing was increasing day by day.But it is not without problems. As the emperor grows older, there may still be wind and rain surrounding the emperor's personal administration.

After the discussion in Wenyuan Pavilion was over that day, Tu Yuanrui followed the emperor back to the imperial study and asked about the homework of these days, seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, he nodded very satisfied.

Shaoqing said to the emperor: "Your Majesty is getting older, and marriage should be put on the agenda. The Queen Mother and the cabinet have mentioned it several times. The minister means that the marriage is not urgent. Most of the royal family's children get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen. Your Majesty gets married at sixteen." It's almost the same, but the candidate can be decided first, what does your majesty think?"

"Uncle Wang can make the decision, I have no objection!" The emperor laughed.

Tu Yuanrui shook his head slightly, "Your Majesty is the one who gets married, so how can I be the master, bring them in!" Immediately, a servant came in with a bunch of portraits.

Pointing to the pile of unexpanded portraits, Tu Yuanrui said: "The Empress Dowager and the cabinet both recommend the candidate for the successor. This is selected by the minister based on the wishes of everyone. Your Majesty can take a look."

The emperor was still a little embarrassed, nodded when he heard the words, and stretched out his hand to pick up the top one, "This is the cousin!" The person in the portrait happened to be known to the emperor, and it was the niece of Empress Dowager Liu's natal family, the emperor's cousin.

"It's human nature for the queen mother to like her niece. Your majesty shouldn't be too surprised. It's just that the favor of two queens of a family is too much." Tu Yuanrui said lightly. It depends on the emperor's answer if the queen mother chooses her niece as queen Do not agree.

Sure enough, the emperor listened and put the portrait aside.The emperor also knew the mother's thoughts these years, but as Uncle Wang said, the favor of a family of two queens is too much, even if he agrees, the cabinet will not agree.

The emperor took a general look at the remaining candidates. They were all the daughters of important officials in the court. Regardless of their character, they were all first-class in appearance and family.

"What does Uncle Wang think?" The emperor couldn't help but ask Ming Wang who was drinking tea calmly.

Tu Yuanrui smiled and put down the teacup, "This is His Majesty's business, how can I ask my minister?"

"The king is selfless, this is what Uncle Wang taught me."

"This doesn't mean that your majesty can't choose your own mind. If you can't even choose what you like with the person next to your bed, wouldn't it be too boring?" I can handle it again.”

"If the Taifu heard this, he would be angry." The emperor blinked and smiled.

"Out of this door, I will not accept this statement." Tu Yuanrui also said.The two looked at each other and smiled, Tu Yuanrui left the album to the emperor, and let the emperor think about it for himself.The emperor is fourteen this year, and it will be decided this year, and it is just right to get married in two years.

Out of the imperial study room, Tu Yuanrui ran into Tu Mingxuan. The little guy who was like a small dumpling had grown into a half-grown boy. When he met Tu Yuanrui, he bowed his hands and greeted him. He looked like a good boy who knew how to be polite. .If he didn't know what he looks like in front of Daiyu, Tu Yuanrui would probably look at him better, but it's a bit difficult.

"Come here now, are you looking for His Majesty?"

"No, I'm looking for Uncle Wang!" Tu Mingxuan said with a smile, took a box from the waiter behind him and handed it to Tu Yuanrui, "This is a little thing I bought for Sister Yun'er."

Daiyu gave birth to their eldest daughter this year, and Tu Yuanrui was overjoyed to have an elder brother.Seeing the sky, I leaned forward. "Yun'er is still young, so you don't need these, you can keep them yourself!" Tu Yuanrui said lightly, and was about to leave.

But was stopped by Tu Mingxuan, "Uncle Wang, don't be so stingy, can't I get out of the palace?" Tu Mingxuan rubbed his nose crookedly.

"If you spend more time on your homework, you won't be grounded." Tu Yuanrui sneered, he only knew how to play all day long, but he got together with Zhongshun.

Seeing him taking the things, Tu Mingxuan smiled happily and was not annoyed at all, "Uncle Wang knows my temper, so naturally he can't be restrained, and Brother Huang will not treat me badly." Blinking his eyes with a look of peace, Tu Yuanrui He took a deep look at him, and said noncommittal, "It's okay!" People's hearts are changeable. If you don't regret it, you also hope that the emperor will not let you down in the future.

It seems that that thing has no chance to see the light of day, Tu Yuanrui caressed the box and looked at the back of Tu Mingxuan leaving, and smiled lightly.

In June of the seventh year of Yuanjia, the emperor got married and married Uncle Zhongyong's daughter as the queen of the palace. In August, King Ming, who had been in charge for seven years, returned to the present.Resigned from all official positions, but the emperor refused to allow it, so he stayed in the palace. In September, the king of Ming sent a petition to resign. He did this three times, and the emperor allowed it.The position of the prince of Ming Wang Fuguo is listed first, and the three provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are designated as fiefdoms. It can be seen that the emperor did not kneel and went straight to the forbidden palace.No matter what happens in the future, Ming Wang is willing to delegate power and let the emperor take charge, so naturally there can be no theory of inappropriateness inside or outside the court.For a while, everyone lamented that King Ming had the virtue of Duke Zhou.

"The courtier opens his mouth, the historian writes a pen, Zhou Gong is still Wang Mang, it's what they say." Tu Yuanrui sneered, what he did was to live up to his original intention, if the former emperor was determined to kill him, then he He didn't mind letting the throne be replaced by another person, but whoever let that person know his mind, after a gamble, he would have to repay the favor.

"Brother Rui, does he care?" Daiyu joked with a smile on the corner of her mouth as she leaned into his arms.

Tu Yuanrui bowed his head and hugged the person in his arms tightly, "The only thing I care about is Yu'er." After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, the four eyes met with each other's fiery heat, and only heard the sound of milk The voice of "Mother, mother, Yun'er also wants to!" also wants to kiss.

Bowing her head to meet a curious face, Daiyu hastily pushed Tu Yuanrui away, picked up her daughter in her clothes and held back her shame, "Who brought Yun'er here?"

The little guy blinked his eyes, "Brother!" Tu Yuanrui narrowed his eyes as he betrayed the person who brought her here. Naturally, there was only one Yun'er who called her brother. Mingxuan?

Tu Mingxuan, who was hiding outside the window and didn't dare to come in, naturally heard it too, and lamented in his heart, how could Xiao Yuner be so stupid?Brother treats you so well, how can you bear it.

The alternation of natural rights is rarely really smooth, and it can't get rid of the theory of settling accounts after autumn. Although the king of Ming returned to power, the emperor gave him enough face.But not necessarily no one thinks that the emperor is just a superficial effort, I'm afraid they don't think so in their hearts.

There are quite a few people who have these thoughts, and the Liu family is one of them. Tu Yuanrui has been in power for several years, and the Liu family has the identity of Cheng Engong but has no power.Intending to send a daughter into the palace as a queen, Tu Yuanrui also ruined it, such a grudge is naturally not light.

Seeing the emperor taking power, the Liu family naturally had other thoughts, but it's a pity that since Tu Yuanrui would delegate power so easily, how could he not have thought about these things.The emperor was taught by him alone, if it was just that, he would be incompetent.

The result of the Liu family jumping up and down was not the eldest son of Liu who had just been recalled to Beijing, the emperor's own uncle was exiled from Beijing again, and this order was the emperor's intention, the Liu family, which was busy with traffic, was immediately left out in the cold.

Empress Dowager Liu summoned her son angrily to ask him why he exiled his uncle. His words were so fierce that the emperor was also annoyed, "In the empress mother's heart, the Liu family is more important, or the ministers are more important." After saying this, the emperor walked away in a huff. Collided with the queen who came in a hurry.

Although Uncle Zhongyong was a general, but the empress was born with the appearance of a willow, she was not tempered like a delicate woman, but she was very straightforward, and when she saw the emperor's angry face, she naturally spoke to persuade him.Speak for Queen Mother Liu, appease the emperor and go to talk to Queen Mother Liu, wanting to comfort her.I don't want Empress Dowager Liu to think that her son is not close to her, the empress was chosen by King Ming, and she usually bears it, but when she is furious, she doesn't give the empress any face.After being scolded, he was made to kneel in the Buddhist hall for two hours. The queen stopped the servant who was going to invite the emperor. When he got up, his knees were swollen and painful, and he could not walk.

Although the empress strictly ordered the inside and outside to be sealed, but only the emperor didn't want to know about the affairs in the palace, and there was no emperor who couldn't know. After this incident, the emperor's affection for Empress Dowager Liu's mother and child became weaker and weaker.

Tu Mingxuan wanted to persuade him to make peace, but Empress Dowager Liu didn't like her youngest son's friendship with Prince Ming's mansion, and this time they also blamed him together. Tu Mingxuan had no choice but to hide. No one dared to bully his mother. who cares.

"Advance by retreating. The queen made a good move, and your vision is not bad!" Tu Yuanrui has nothing to do but stay in the mansion now, and Tu Yuanjun also takes this opportunity to bring his wife and children back to live for a while.Tu Yuanrui played chess with Mu Xin, chatting about the affairs in the palace, the queen was naturally chosen by the emperor himself, but it doesn't mean he didn't do anything, a good queen is sometimes worth many things.Although he doesn't love power, it doesn't mean he likes people to make trouble.

Mu Xin is pregnant again now, but it's not obvious yet. Sitting opposite Tu Yuanrui, thinking about playing chess, she just sneered and said: "In this world, no one can compare to you in terms of scheming."

Although they have been uncle and sister-in-law for many years, they still hate each other.It's just patience for the sake of those around you.

"Father!" The soft voice melted hearts, Tu Yuanrui put down the chess piece in his hand and picked up his well-behaved daughter. "What happened to Yun'er?"

"Father, the second uncle is back, why didn't my brother come." Unexpectedly, the moment the daughter opened her mouth, Tu Yuanrui's loving father was stabbed in the heart. Could it be that I am not as good as that brat Tu Mingxuan?

"Yun'er is good, can father play with you?" Tu Yuanrui comforted his daughter.

Xiao Yuner blinked, is it because her brother can't come?A little disappointed, but after thinking about it, Xiao Yun'er decided to go to find her mother, she must have a way.

The affairs in the palace have nothing to do with Yong'an Palace, Tu Yuanrui doesn't care, and the others are even less interested. Although the emperor is not big, he has all the means, but it doesn't take long for the court to be under his control. He has been here before He went back to the palace twice, but Tu Yuanrui didn't say anything, and only let the emperor make up his own mind.

In the blink of an eye, it was spring again, and there were still a few riders guarding the two carriages. The guards guarding the city gate knew that they were rich and powerful at a glance, so they didn't dare to look too much, so they let them go.Not long after the group left the capital, they were chased up by Yiqi.

Although Tu Mingxuan was young, his riding skills were not bad, and it was because the person in front didn't walk very fast, otherwise, even a ten-year-old boy might not be able to catch up with him.

When the guards in front saw that they naturally wanted to report to their master, Tu Yuanrui's face turned dark immediately, it was a lingering ghost.It is necessary to order chariots and horses to drive people away.Daiyu hastily tugged on his sleeve and shook her head.If he really ran fast, Xuan'er rode too fast, I'm afraid something will happen.

Facing Yu'er's eyes, Tu Yuanrui could only order to stop on the spot, waiting for someone to arrive.When she woke up and found that her favorite brother was also going to play together, Xiao Yuner smiled happily.

Tu Yuanrui raised his eyebrows, it seems that it is not completely useless, so let's keep it, at least he can help guide people.
