Chapter 9: The Beautiful Woman (2)
Chapter 9: Beauty Wanruo (2)
"Your Majesty, your intention is good, but you must not use such radical means!" Zhou Wenyuan knelt down and advised.
"I can't care so much. None of these people's hands are covered with blood from the common people. Shouldn't they die?" Zhu Yinglong's temper became angry, and his stubbornness emerged. When no one was dizzy, the emperor was no exception. He read Chen Xi's memorial and was still angry.
"Although the emperor said this, they are all the bloodline left by Taizu. If you do this, aren't you afraid that the people in the world will say that you are a cold-blooded tyrant who kills brothers and relatives?" Zhou Wenyuan advised bitterly.
"So, are you unwilling to do this for me?" Zhu Yinglong's face turned pale. Although reform is different from revolution, it also requires bleeding. If they died earlier, they would not die many innocent people!
"I'm sorry for my duty!" Zhou Wenyuan was not afraid, he also saw that the emperor was angry and would definitely reconsider it when he calmed down. If he was asked to plot against those corrupt officials, he would definitely not hesitate. But he was a royal family and a noble relative. If something happened, he would not be able to bear this responsibility?
"Okay, you don't want to do it. I have people to do it for me!"
"Get out, get out of here, I don't want to see you again!" Zhu Yinglong roared at Zhou Wenyuan.
"I'm leaving!" Zhou Wenyuan stood up from the ground nervously, looked up at the angry emperor, and sighed in his heart. Before the emperor calmed down, he retreated.
"Xu Yingyuan, Xu Yingyuan!" Zhu Yinglong shouted twice outside the hall with anger.
"I am here, my elder, why do you call me?" Xu Yingyuan hurriedly ran in from outside the hall. Although he had not heard what the emperor said to Zhou Wenyuan just now, from Zhou Wenyuan's bitter face and the emperor's angry voice, he knew that the emperor was angry. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Don't treat yourself as a punching bag.
Strangely, Zhu Yinglong, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was ups and downs at this moment, and he thought calmly. He was a little too impatient. If these people died all at once, it would not be of any benefit to the court, and it would cause trouble to him. But how can we make these people make their debut in the process of taking back the various management rights of the court for themselves? Can we achieve our goals without bleeding?
"Come here!" Zhu Yinglong summoned Xu Yingyuan and walked up to him and said.
Seeing the emperor's face gloomy, Xu Yingyuan couldn't help but feel nervous and walked forward carefully.
"Li Yongzhen is still alive?"
Xu Yingyuan was startled. Why did the emperor suddenly ask him? He said carefully: "As far as I know, I am still alive."
"Do you know where he is now?"
"I know, but..." Xu Yingyuan wanted to speak but stopped.
"I want to see him, you can arrange it. Don't worry about other things." Zhu Yinglong waved his hand impatiently.
"This..." Xu Yingyuan looked unhappy when he saw Zhu Yinglong's face. He had to say, "I obey the order!"
Li Yongzhen did what Zhou Wenyuan was unwilling to do. No one would have thought that the emperor was behind this. Even Zhou Wenyuan had only doubted it in his heart. He did not dare to reveal a word to any head. The emperor once asked him to carry out a plan to conspire to deal with royal relatives and nobles in the royal family, but he refused. But what happened later had to remind him that the emperor's plan was not dead because of his own refusal. It was finally done in another way under the command of another person.
In the following years, more than a dozen royal vassal kings, and high-ranking powerful people were eliminated or demoted on various inaccuracies. However, the parties themselves were secretive and became one of the most confusing and bizarre phenomena during the reign of Emperor Chongzhen. Because after these vassal kings with some prestige died or lost their titles and demoted them to commoners, the court took back the power of the various industries they operated in other ways in other ways. Later historians discovered this phenomenon and found it a little strange and studied it. It seemed that it had a lot to do with the removal of the titles or the revocation of the huge profits in the court after they were demoted. However, no one dared to publish the research results until a peaceful evolution several hundred years later. After the country had no emperor, it was declassified from the secret files of the court, and people gave up the post.
The people who came learned about this bizarre historical case. It turned out that these were secretly planned under the emperor's secret instruction. The emperor did not deliberately bury this history, but ordered people to record it and collect it carefully. At that time, in order to quickly recover the power of salt, tea and mining land from these people, the court had to adopt this shameful method, which ruined Zhu Yinglong, the remembered Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian.
Some people think he did the right thing, and did not deliberately cover up his own actions like other emperors. They were open and honest. The reason why they did not make it public was because of the stability of the country. Some people think that he did not recognize his relatives, and even his relatives from all generations were cruelly plotting, even he did not hesitate to frame, blame, defam the land, and cut it. It was not that the relatives did not recognize him. Only future generations would comment on his achievements and merits and demerits.
The eunuch had no descendants, and he had to bring all the secrets into the coffin, so Li Yongzhen was the best candidate to implement this plan, because he was more cunning, sinister, cruel and cold-blooded than Zhou Wenyuan. Zhou Wenyuan had a little scholarly aura and was not suitable for doing this, but his mouth was still trustworthy.
Zhu Yinglong closed his eyes and signaled Xu Yingyuan to stand aside. He slowly opened his eyes after the beautiful big bell presented by the Franji people to the court ten times.
"Stand up."
"Prince, where are you going?"
"Have you changed the brand in a few days, Xianfu Palace." Zhu Yinglong said lightly, with any expression on his face.
Xu Yingyuan was about to shout at the top of his throat, but Zhu Yinglong glared at him fiercely, and quickly withdrew his big tongue and said in a low voice: "The emperor is in Xianfu Palace!"
At this time, in Xianfu Palace, Chen Fei Shen Qianqian was sitting under the lamp, embroidery under the red, green and blue silk threads. A pair of vivid mandarin ducks were highlighted under her smart little hands.
"Empress, the emperor has turned over your brand today. Should you take a shower, change clothes and wait for the emperor to favor him?" He said this a few days ago when he went back to visit his mother. His mother was not worried about her life in the palace, so she found her a close-fitting girl Wanruo, and she brought her into the palace and became her own personal palace maid.
Wanruo, in fact, compared to this, she is more beautiful than Shen Qianqian, the authentic lady. She has bright eyes, white teeth, pink face and blush, and her big watery eyes are even more intelligent and charming. She has a figure, not to mention her figure. She is definitely curvy and convex. She should be concave, and her temperament is even more neat. My mother said that she was a lady from a wealthy family in the past. It’s a pity that she has a father who likes to bet and has a coquettish second wife. Her father owes a lot of usury, and at the instigation of her second wife, she bought her in a brothel as a priest, because she is strong and has a strong personality. She is beaten by the madam. Shen Qianqian’s mother passed by the downstairs and reached out to care about the unfairness and redeemed her. After a few days in the mansion, she followed her into the palace.
Chen Qianqian put down the needle and thread in her hand, and said with a gloomy expression: "Wanruo. Don't be busy, the emperor will not come."
"Empress, why is this?"
"Your Majesty, the emperor doesn't like me." Chen Qianqian explained with a lonely expression, lowering her head again and focusing on the rust mandarin duck rust in her hand.
"Since the emperor doesn't like the empress, why did he marry the empress again?" Wanruo asked inexplicably.
"Wanruo, you don't understand." Chen Qianqian felt a sense of misery in her heart. She couldn't help but marry the emperor. Now she felt even more like she was a widow. She felt so uncomfortable.
"Empress, you'd better go take a shower and change your clothes quickly. What if the emperor is really coming tonight?" Wanruo urged.
"The Emperor is here!"
When Chen Qianqian heard this sound, she was shocked. The embroidery needle in her hand suddenly pierced the middle finger of her left hand. She suddenly felt pain and let out a "oeah" and let out a painful cry. Then she hurriedly put down the silk handkerchief and needlework in her hand, and pulled Wanruo to welcome the Holy Lord.
"I, I welcome the emperor's holy peace!"
"Yeah, get up."
"This is the first time I have been here in Xianfu Palace, my beloved concubine. You won't blame me for coming here for so long, right?"
"I don't dare."
Zhu Yinglong took a few steps and visited the decorations in the palace. There was nothing colorful, including bamboo curtains, yajian jade scrolls, and several tables, Yaoqin and brocade, a stove of sandalwood, and a stove of green smoke. The layout was very simple and elegant, pleasing to the eye. He praised: "The concubine has arranged it well here, I like it very much. It seems that I will come to you more often in the future. It is good, good, and it is a unique atmosphere."
"The emperor praised it. This was not actually arranged by my concubine." Chen Qianqian was a little nervous. Everything came too suddenly, and she was not prepared at all.
"Oh, it was not arranged by my beloved concubine. Who did it come from? I want to see it!" Zhu Yinglong sat down and looked at Chen Qianqian with a smile.
Chen Qianqian hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea, pulled over and lowered her head and explained: "It's this close-fitting palace maid next to me."
Zhu Yinglong opened his eyes and looked at him. Under his purple palace skirt, his small body was graceful and delicate, his arms were hanging on his chest, and his slender hands kept twisting the corners of his sleeves, showing the protagonist's inner tension and anxiety.
"Raise your head!"
What a beautiful woman, with harmonious facial features, crystal clear and moist sides, beautiful eyebrows, white lips, white teeth, skin with creamy white jade, blowing, big eyes as water, bright and clear, looking at her eyes, and a natural flowing and confident style was revealed, which immediately reminded Zhu Yinglong of the Shanghai girl Yang Gong Tathagata in later generations. Her spiritual energy was so powerful that Zhu Yinglong was very moved.
"What's your name?" As the emperor, he still had some concentration. Although he was surprised at Wanruo's charming nation, he quickly withdrew his eyes from the other person's face and asked calmly.
"My servant's name is Wanruo."
"Do you don't have a surname?" Zhu Yinglong asked in surprise.
"My servant's surname is Xu."
"Your surname is Xu?" Zhu Yinglong suddenly felt his eyelids jumping a few times. I don't know what it felt like, but it was not a good feeling anyway.
"Yes, the emperor." Xu Wanruo responded shyly. It was the first time she saw the emperor when she grew up. She was a little excited, but she was afraid of writing. She was a little shy, because Zhu Yinglong's eyes just now looked at her were obviously a little aggressive. The sixth feeling of a woman, the emperor seemed to feel a little about her.
"How did you enter the palace? I think you are not an ordinary woman." Zhu Yinglong said suspiciously, just looking at her small hands, her fingers are round and tender, white and delicate. She knew that she had never done rough work.
At present, Xu Wanruo told her experience and how to enter the palace. Zhu Yinglong was silent for a long time. In this era, the trading of population is legal. Even the government does the business of trading population. The imperial court's local sects do this. Any official who violates the law must be implicated in the nine tribes. The wives, concubines and daughters in the family must be sold to others as slaves and servants. If they are not lucky, they will be sold to brothels and brothels. They will never be able to turn over in their lives. The household registration management in the Ming Dynasty was quite strict. If you were to be a craftsman, you could only be a craftsman for generations. Unless you were willing to make a living by a craftsman, such as being a slave for others. Or you would go to a brothel to make a big teapot, commonly known as a guitar, etc., otherwise you could only do it like this for generations, greatly destroying the development of the entire society.
, stifled the way for many people to live, which was also one of the major ills of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yinglong finally heard today that it is impossible to have equality in this era. Even in later generations, he was unable to fully be equal, so Zhu Yinglong would not overestimate himself to reform this and forcefully promote equality. This would be opposed by all the gentry. Now is not the time to raise equality, but it is not the time to cancel the household registration of low-ranking household registration, restrict and regulate population transactions, and introduce some laws and policies to protect the rights and interests of these people. It is probably unrealistic to ban population transactions in the first stage, and allow the free movement of the people. People can do whatever they want to do, eliminate the barriers between household registration, promote the civic system, promote equality under the default, and cancel some privileges of some gentry.
Xu Wanruo's remarks were full of passion and tears, and it was extremely touching. Shen Qianqian, who was hooked by the side, couldn't help but burst into tears, constantly wiping the tears at the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief.
"I'm tired, my beloved concubine, please let Wanruo go down and rest. I sympathize with her experience. You should take care of her more and be a companion for you." After hearing Xu Wanruo's speech, Zhu Yinglong closed his eyes and ordered, always feeling something was wrong with Xu Wanruo, and always wanted to send her away.
"I follow the order!" Shen Qianqian responded with red eyes. Xu Wanruo thanked her and then quit.
"Your Majesty, please let me give you a generous dress!" Shen Qianqian lowered her head and said shyly.
Zhu Yinglong suddenly opened his eyes, reached out his hand, held up Shen Qianqian's smooth jaw, stared at her eyes and asked, "Qianqian, tell me, are you sincerely trying to be my woman?"
"I am already the emperor's woman!" Shen Qianqian closed her eyes slightly, exhaled like orchids, and said quietly.
"Do you like me?"
"The emperor is my husband, so why don't I like it?"
"Do you love me?"
"Love." Shen Qianqian's delicate body trembled slightly, and after a long time, she said a word.
"Okay, very good, then I will make you a real woman tonight. Are you willing?" Although Shen Qianqian is not a stunning beauty, she is also a beauty of a generation, and she is one of the few skinny beauty among her eight concubines. If a man is not moved, it is simply a heart-wrenching word.
"I...I'm willing."
"Woo..." Zhu Yinglong had already kissed the pair of cold red lips.
There are too many people in this world who can’t help themselves, and the emperor will also be unable to help themselves. Chen Qianqian is destined to be her own woman in this life, and the fact that she cannot change.
"Qianqian, you have to remember that after entering the palace, you must tie the emperor's heart and be favored by the emperor. The wealth and glory of the Shen family is on you, and all my mother's hope is on you!" Accompanied by the tearing pain of her lower body, Chen Qianqian remembered the diligent instructions her mother told her before entering the palace.
