The world's definition of prosperity is inconsistent.
The prosperous age in the eyes of the literati is all about wind, flowers, snow and moon, poetry and songs, and natural treasures.
In the eyes of ordinary people, if they can have a good meal from time to time in ordinary circumstances, and if they can avoid starving to death in years of famine, it is considered a prosperous age.
Now that Daliang has been founded, disasters continue to occur in various places.
Su Mingzhe had to give up his absurd and unruly life every day, and began to lead the civil and military officials with all his strength to continuously implement various disaster relief measures.
With such a concerted effort, three consecutive years of disasters resulted in only a few thousand people starving to death.
This is a huge result.
Officials who provided disaster relief in various places received "Umbrellas of All Peoples" as gifts from the people.
When these "Umbrellas of All Peoples" were delivered to Luoyang, most of the literati who had previously advocated the prosperity of the previous dynasty shut their mouths.
After all, many things require comparison.
When Song Renzong, the most accomplished and respected figure in the previous dynasty, was in power, once there was a famine in various places, the land would be devastated and people would die of hunger everywhere.
Without tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of civilians dying, it would be impossible to survive the famine years.
Scenes of people exchanging their children and eating them, leaving their bones exposed in the wild, are commonplace.
In contrast, Daliang Jianguo.
Even though it was not the so-called prosperous age, it was still able to keep the people's mouths open and barely survive the famine.
Under such circumstances, it would be shameless to continue to advocate the prosperity of the previous dynasty.
Of course, there were those people who immediately covered their ears and shouted when they heard the imperial court came up with data for comparison.
"I won't listen, I won't listen, the bastard is chanting sutras!"
For such die-hards, Su Mingzhe directly asked the Detective Department to write down their names.
As long as they and their relatives commit crimes, they will all be severely punished!
Time flies.
The thirteenth year of Daliang calendar comes.
After several consecutive years of bumper harvests, Changping warehouses in various places were filled with grain.
At this moment, ten years have passed since Zhao Song surrendered.
This year, Zhao Ji suddenly died of illness.
As the two youngest princesses of the previous dynasty, Zhao Jinzhu and Zhao Jinyin were also taken into the palace by Su Mingzhe.
Of course.
Su Mingzhe just called them to live in the palace, and didn't want to do anything for the time being.
After all, the two girls are still young.
Liu Waner, who lived in the Fairy Bird Hall of Shangyang Palace, was so anxious and panicked when she learned that her daughter Jinzhu had entered the palace.
Don't blame her for being anxious.
Back then, Su Mingzhe asked Queen Zheng to sleep with the three princesses Yupan, Jinluo and Huer. Even after several years, Liu Waner still remembered it as new and vividly.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Waner, who was already smart, actually came up with a way to save her daughter after she calmed down.
This day.
Liu Waner came to Lily Hall to pick up her daughter Jinzhu.
Su Mingzhe arranged for the princesses, princesses, and concubines of the previous dynasty who did not have independent palaces to live here.
Liu Wanniang's daughter Zhao Jinzhu entered the palace and was temporarily arranged to live here.
Not long after, Liu Wanniang took her daughter Jinzhu, who looked confused, and walked towards the Yingluo Hall not far away.
Yingluo Hall is the residence of Zhao Yingluo, the emperor of Shunde.
Zhao Yingluo entered the palace at the age of fifteen or six in the tenth year of Daliang calendar.
After Emperor Liang met Zhao Yingluo, he loved her very much. He not only rewarded her with a Yingluo Palace, but also gave her the title of "Ming Fei".
Liu Waner and her daughter came to visit.
As an old acquaintance from the previous court, and because she received a lot of care from Liu Waner when she entered the palace, Zhao Yingluo still came out of the palace to greet her politely.
Along with Zhao Yingluo, there were two half-sisters, Roufu Emperor Ji Zhao Duofu and Xianfu Emperor Ji Zhao Jiner.
Among the three sisters, Zhao Jin'er entered the palace last year at the age of fourteen.
In this harem, the three sisters Zhao Yingluo not only have similar looks, but also have excellent temperaments.
Among the many favored concubines, the three sisters are considered to be at the top of the list.
Several people greeted each other and sat down.
Zhao Yingluo said a few polite words and then asked Liu Waner the reason for her visit.
Liu Waner asked Zhao Yingluoping to withdraw from the palace, and then she made her purpose clear.
After hearing this, the three sisters Zhao Yingluo were a little thankful that their mother-in-law Wang Guifei passed away relatively early and did not have to suffer this humiliation. Then they began to help think of a solution.
After a while, all the ideas proposed by several people were rejected.
Seeing that Liu Waner was getting more and more anxious, Zhao Yingluo could only come up with an idea:
"Empress Li Fei, why don't you go find the Empress. After all, the Empress is the master of the harem. If you can get the Empress to marry Jinzhu, the emperor will definitely not deny the Empress' face!"
When Liu Waner heard that she wanted to find the queen by herself, her face suddenly turned ugly.
Liu Waner was quite favored because of her appearance. Not only was she named Concubine Li in her first year, she was also the first concubine to get an independent palace.
Her Fairy Bird Hall is the best one outside the three main halls of Shangyang Palace.
It was also Emperor Liang who loved her too much. Liu Waner gradually got carried away and relied on the emperor's favor to do extraordinary things in the harem. Therefore, she had already offended the empress, the noble concubine, the concubine Shu, the concubine Xian, and the concubine De. .
Now that Zhao Yingluo asked her to go find the queen, even if Liu Waner could lower her face and ask for help, the queen might not be willing to save her mother and daughter?
Zhao Yingluo saw Liu Waner's gloomy face and knew her worries, so she could only comfort her and said:
"My dear, if you don't give it a try, how will you know if it will work?"
After listening to the consolation, there was really no way out.
Liu Waner could only smile bitterly and begged again:
"Then... Concubine Ming, can you go with us?"
My dear, there will be more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue, there will be more exciting things to come!
"good!"
Zhao Yingluo was enthusiastic and immediately ordered people to prepare the chariot rewarded by Emperor Liang and accompany Liu Waner to the Huiyou Hall of Ziwei Palace.
After Qiong Ying gave birth to the prince, her temperament began to become lazy, and she never took back the power of the queen. Instead, she continued to let the four noble concubines Fang Jinzhi, Shu concubine Murong Yanran, Virtuous concubine Cheng Waner, and Xian concubine Hu Sanniang shoulder the responsibility.
When the palace attendants came to report that Li Fei Liu Waner and Ming Fei Zhao Yingluo had come to visit them hand in hand, Qiong Ying's first reaction was that they were missing.
After all, she had no good impression of Liu Waner, the arrogant and domineering concubine.
It was Mrs. Ye who persuaded them. After all, they were two royal concubines, and they were both concubines favored by Emperor Liang. It would not look good if they were missing.
Qiongying then patiently announced the two of them into the palace.
Liu Waner entered the hall and immediately paid homage with the etiquette of three bows and nine kowtows.
This moment made Qiongying feel embarrassed.
You should know that it is recorded in the "Daliang Rules" and "Etiquette Chapter" that the worship ceremony of three bows and nine knocks only needs to be used in the ceremony of three festivals and two lifespans.
At ordinary court meetings, all ministers only need to pay homage to the emperor.
On weekdays, when concubines from the harem come to pay their respects to the queen, they only need to say "Blessings".
As a result, Liu Wan'er's trouble now made Qiong Ying, who was not very flirtatious, into a big red face.
"Concubine Ming, Concubine Li, get up quickly, there is no need for this!"
Qiongying said, and asked someone to help the two girls.
However, the two women followed the etiquette and knelt three times and kowtowed nine times before getting up.
After getting up, Liu Waner also changed from her usual arrogant appearance, with a sad face and sincerely explained her purpose.
When Qiong Ying heard this, she immediately waved her hand and said indifferently:
"This is easy to handle. Do you have a marriage partner?"
Liu Waner also didn't expect that the Queen would be so easy to talk to, so she quickly said:
"Let the queen make the decision in everything!"
Qiongying thought for a moment and then said:
"In that case, let's marry Li Xiuyuan, the son of the commander of the royal guards!"
Li Xiuyuan is Li Shou's eldest son. He is only ten years old this year. He was originally given by Emperor Liang to be the prince's companion. It can be said that he has a bright future.
As a result, this kid suddenly wanted to become a monk out of nowhere.
When Li Shou found out, he broke two canes, but it failed to change his son's mind. He could only lock him in the house and not allow him to step out of the door.
This incident caused an uproar in Luoyang City.
Liu Waner had also heard of it, and immediately nodded and said:
"This is great. It would be best if you can get married immediately!"
