Empress Han

Among the two nuns, Sister Yan is as strict as her name suggests, and Sister Gao is as kind as dough, but what she says can choke people to death. The key is that these two people don’t find fault at all. The standard should be done over and over again, and the standard should be passed. This made Chen Feiyu confused, what was he trying to do.

Chen Feiyu learned the rules of the palace, even if the emperor wanted to go, he would be embarrassed to go. There are three more pregnant women in the harem who have nothing to do. Let's take a look at the two children. Even if there is not much time for the rest of the harem, it is better It's not strong at all, many people are still gloating in the back, the humble background doesn't understand the rules, her showing off depends on the occasion, she doesn't pay the queen an excuse, and she doesn't look at so many people in the palace, who would dare to do that.

At the beginning, Chen Feiyu was still tearfully waiting for the emperor to rescue her. It would be best to help her get rid of these two stern nuns. Those who have been taught the rules these days are wilting like dehydrated cabbages .Anyone who repeats an action countless times a day can't feel tired, and the food is not as good as before. Who makes her just a minor envoy, and there is no emperor's rule.

In the end, the emperor didn't come over at all, but someone came to pass an oral order to let Chen Feiyu study the palace rules with his mother, so as not to disappoint the queen's painstaking efforts.

Chen Feiyu felt full of grievances, and finally waited until Nanny Yan and Nanny Gao left, and began to wipe away tears. It was really pear blossoms and rain.If the emperor is here, maybe he will feel distressed, but the concubines will probably despise the family. Who can enter the palace, who has not been familiar with the palace rules and learned manners. Why are you wronged? Everyone can learn that you can’t learn it. It doesn't work.

However, the grievances of the former dynasty and the harem were calmed down in an instant, and the former court did not pay any more attention to Chen Feiyu. Although the former court was a bit bombed because of the humble entry into the palace, but since the queen has already punished him, if he chases the emperor, he will be a courtier. I'm not sensible anymore.

Two months passed quickly, and it seemed that the tail of summer could already be touched, and autumn seemed to be coming.Feng Yuan has also been pregnant for three months, but Feng Yuan, Yu Liangren, and Dou Liangren have kept their personalities very stable for their children, especially Feng Yuan's changes are unimaginable. Neither Zhengjun nor Li Yuaner who got along with her thought that such a lively girl like Feng Yuan could become calmer than anyone else in this harem.

Zhaojun only confided some thoughts when he met Zhengjun once, "I know that this harem is full of things I don't like, so I never want to stay here. Rather than saying that I yearn for the vast sky, it is better to say that I am afraid of the dark battle You see, this harem has turned Yuan'er into someone we are not familiar with. I always feel that not long ago we were playing in the imperial garden, but now you are a mother, and Yuan'er has become calm for her own children. Gentle, time changes everyone, I don't want to face more difficult choices one day, let me leave the palace."

The answer of the ruler was that he proposed to the emperor not long ago that there were too many maids in the palace, and it would only harm the peace of heaven. How many common people had no choice but to sell their daughters into the palace in order to get some money. Nowadays, many court ladies have been in the palace for a long time. It's time to let some court ladies go out of the palace to get together with their families to share the family relationship.

The emperor didn't know how many maids in the palace, how old they were, and who had meritorious service and voluntarily left the palace, so after he agreed, he naturally let the ruler handle it.

The maids in the palace have reached the age, some want to go out and some don’t want to go out. Not all families want their daughters to go back. After a good age for marriage, naturally they can’t find a good match. If they give more money, they are reluctant. , and those who have a bad relationship with their families, or those who have no relatives, can also stay in the palace voluntarily, so some people who have not entered the palace for a few years can also apply to leave the palace.The names of Zhengjun, Zhaojun and Li Yuaner were also quietly written.

Everything went well, and Li Yuaner and Zhaojun could hear their laughter almost every day at Feng Yuan's place.Dou Liangren and Yu Liangren, who were raising babies, didn't let the maids bother them there, but showed vicissitudes that were obviously inconsistent with their ages. "Actually, those who can leave are the happiest. If this is the case, why should we be villains."

But after a few days, someone sent a letter to Zhaojun. After Zhaojun read it, he stopped smiling, and sometimes shed tears secretly.It took Li Yuaner several days to grind it out: "My mother sent me a letter, my father is seriously ill, and I don't know what's going on now, but the day to let him out of the palace is not yet, and here is still far away from Zigui. It's a long distance, and I'm worried."

It's a matter of life and death, so this kind of thing can't be persuaded. Li Yuaner's own family is not harmonious, so she can't persuade Zhaojun not to be sad, she can only accompany him silently.Worried that this matter would affect Feng Yuan's health, they also tacitly refused to tell Feng Yuan.

When the list was finished and qualifications were checked, Zhaojun received another letter, this time the impatient Li Yuaner accompanied her to read it.Slowly read aloud "Your father is getting better, but there are many elders in the clan who are dissatisfied with my son's failure to become the emperor's concubine. If I go home, I am afraid that the elders of the clan will marry my son. If the entrustment is not human, I would rather my son Staying in the palace, even if you can't meet each other, you can still protect yourself."

Li Yuan'er opened his eyes wide. "Why is your family so old that they regard you as a tool for exchanging benefits? It's too much for them to make such a plan when your father is still here."

Zhaojun held the letter to his chest, tears dripping down, "I knew from the very beginning what kind of person the clan elders were. I thought I would enter the palace as they wished, and they would give up if I failed. Everything is important, although my parents love me, but they are only white, if someone really reaches an agreement with the clan, I am afraid there is no room for rejection."

Li Yuaner froze for a moment, frightened by the cruelty of this patriarchal system.After thinking for a while, "Let's go to the empress, there is no way we can do anything."

Zhaojun shook his head, "Wait, our request has already caused a lot of trouble for the empress. If it weren't for us, the empress would not be in such a hurry even if she planned to leave the palace for an older maid. She has done enough for us. We I can't trouble her anymore. This matter of my family belongs to the scope of the patriarchal clan, and the empress can't intervene at will. This is my fate. It seems that I can't go home. The fate is really cruel."

Zhaojun wanted to wait a few days to talk to Zhengjun and just explain the reason. She would like to be a palace maid for the rest of her life in the Sishan Bureau or some remote palace, and she didn't want to get involved in the harem's gossip.

Suddenly news came from the previous dynasty that the Huns were originally divided into two groups to fight each other on the grassland, and the two brothers kept wooing the available power for the position of the Great Chanyu.Among them, Huhanxie Shanyu's power was slightly weaker than that of his elder brother Zhizhi Shanyu, so he moved south to repair with the Han Dynasty and accumulate strength.

The court discussed this matter for a long time, because the entire history of the Han Dynasty is the history of the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu competing for harmony.The Xiongnu had always plundered the border ferociously and regarded the Han people as two-legged sheep. Before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there were always women of the Han family who were relatives of the Huns, and they all died in foreign lands.It was not until Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu that the Han Dynasty did not perform any more humiliating marriages. Princesses of the Han Dynasty married Wusun and other countries outside the Great Wall, and even held these countries in their hands and made them feel loyal to the great Han.

After a long time, the waist of the Han Dynasty has straightened. Some people argue that they disagree. The Han Dynasty is stronger than the Xiongnu. Why should they give their princess a marriage? The border also prevents Zhizhi Shanyu, who hates the Han people even more, from unifying the Huns and restoring the Huns to their heyday.

When the emperor came to the harem with a headache from the noise, he couldn't help complaining a few words, and his heart moved, "The ministers of the previous court were all men, but you are a woman. If you look at this issue from a woman's point of view, what do you think? "

The ruler did not say that the harem should not be involved in politics. In her opinion, the reason why women have little knowledge is because of the confinement of men. If women can have the same education as men, they may be more amazing than men. people.So sometimes she would think about how to deal with it when she heard the government affairs. She didn't really have the idea of ​​replacing it. She just felt that if she could understand these things, she would not be ignorant of these things when teaching children in the future. Know.

Zhengjun pondered a few words, "The courtiers and concubines do have some ideas, but they are just superficial opinions, how can they compare with the opinions of the well-educated Confucians in the front hall."

The emperor sneered, "Those old ministers talk about the dignity of the Han family all day long, and even the left and right prime ministers have different opinions. The left prime minister thinks that they should get married, change the habits of the Huns, and educate the Huns. The right prime minister thinks that the big man should not get along with them." Uncivilized Huns marry each other. There is no result in arguing."

The ruler gave the emperor an orange, and pulled out the two white jade five-bat hairpins on his head. "Your Majesty, in the eyes of my concubines, marriage is necessary."

The emperor was curious "Oh?"

The ruler picked up a hairpin, "This is Hu Hanxie Shanyu." He picked up another hairpin, "This is Zhizhi Shanyu."

"Your Majesty, Hu Hanxie Shanyu and Zhizhi Shanyu are brothers, but Zhizhi Shanyu is more like a Hun like his ancestors, a bloodthirsty, warlike, barbaric person, and Hu Hanxie Shanyu heard that he admired me very much. The culture of the Han family is closer to our Han people, and he is in a weak position. If Zhizhi Shanyu wins, then the Xiongnu will repeat the behavior of looting the border. I am afraid that the people on the border will suffer. The people of the Han family Don't be afraid of death, but you should avoid sending sheep to the enemy's mouth."

The emperor picked up the hairpin representing Huhanxie Shanyu, "Could it be that you think the Huns can still be educated?"

The ruler covered his mouth and smiled, "Your Majesty was joking, enlightenment is the work of one or two generations. Enlightenment is necessary, but this is not something that can be reduced in a short period of time, but marrying a princess in the past must require dowry and Dowry, the dowry, what the Huns can afford is nothing more than cattle and sheep fur, which is not unusual, but we can ask for good horses and stallions. After Emperor Wu, the big man is too short of horses. Dowry, my big man has silk tea, luxury items It has everything you need, delicious food, intoxicating wine, and skillful farmers who can farm. What do you think the Xiongnu nobles who love my Han style but are unable to invade the south will do."

The emperor's eyes lit up, and he slapped the table, "They will use cattle, sheep and horses. They ask us to exchange good things from the west. Not only can they get good horses, but they can also corrupt them. If they are fascinated by these things, I am afraid that those Huns will not be able to ride horses." If there are farmers who can cultivate, they will also try to cultivate, and gradually lose their greatest advantage. If the people on horseback are like us, why should we be afraid.”

Turning around, he hugged Zhengjun and turned around, "You are so talented, Zhengjun, it's ridiculous that the ministers of the previous dynasty were so quarrelsome, and there are almost very few people who see this, If this can be done, the threat of the Xiongnu to the big man will be greatly reduced, but this requires a woman who is wise, capable, and willing to put down the sword against the big man. There are no such women in the clan who are of the right age, and my younger sister is also Already married, how can I make it better."

The ruler smiled, "Your Majesty, it is not a precedent to designate a court lady as a princess."

Zhengjun thought that Zhaojun and Li Yuan'er had signed up to leave the palace, and had the opportunity to go home, Zhaojun should not repeat this path again. As for who was chosen, she couldn't take care of it, even though she did it in her previous life , but what Zheng Jun said was indeed her own opinion.
