When Emperor Ming Yuan finally stepped out of the Changmen Hall, he heard the shabby and heavy palace door being locked heavily, and the squeaking sound seemed to carry all the memories of the old days, and he was isolated from those days from then on.
He said to Eunuch Mu Ru: I have lost the imperial concubine.
The voice was silent and full of confusion.
The emperor also has his concubines, as well as many other empresses in the harem. For the first time, Eunuch Mu Ru's comfort was faintly tinged with irony.
It's different! He said, walking slowly on the gravel road with his head lowered, his steps were shaky, his heart was empty, and he felt a faint pain.
Eunuch Mu Ru followed his steps and walked out. Naturally, it was different. In the entire harem, only the imperial concubine had the most transparent temperament, being considerate but actually very principled.
The imperial concubine locked herself up in the Changmen Hall. Emperor Ming Yuan considered the rights of the harem again and again, and finally selected Concubine Jing, the mother of Prince Sun, and she was granted the title of Concubine Jing.
Concubine Jing lived in seclusion and rarely interfered with the affairs of the harem. Now that the power of taking charge of the harem suddenly fell into her hands, she was not very happy.
Because, above her, there were Empress Chu and Concubine Di, as well as her favorite concubine Concubine Hu.
However, after the imperial decree came down, she had no choice but to comply. After handing over to the imperial concubine at the Changmen Hall, the concubine Jing sighed deeply and said melancholy: I have never asked for honor and favor in my life, and I never thought about honor falling from the sky.
I was really caught off guard, and I was terrified, lest I get involved in right and wrong and harm my two sons.
The imperial concubine said: "Sister, you don't need to worry. Just be careful about everything. If you have any problems, you can still come to me or the Crown Princess. Although she can't interfere with the affairs of the harem, she can give you some advice."
Concubine Jing smiled bitterly, and that was all she could do. My sister is good at giving birth and raising a baby, so don't let this worry ruin your health.
Don't worry, sister, she is fine here. The imperial concubine said.
Concubine Jing looked at her and couldn't help but sigh. In the past, before Concubine Hu entered the palace, the emperor valued his sister the most. When the state affairs were the busiest, he would not forget to sit in his sister's palace for a while. He never thought that his sister would move in today.
The elder sister felt really uncomfortable that the Changmen Palace had met such a dismal end. Even though she now had the power to control the palace, she was still very hesitant. Concubine Hu would definitely not dare to take care of it.
The imperial concubine shook her head. You should take care of Concubine Hu. She is not arrogant. On the contrary, she understands things better than many people. You can talk to her about everything, but don't be too close to her. She is not hers.
It's not good. The main reason is that she is young and sometimes can't keep her words. Anyway, she just needs to control herself.
Concubine Jing felt relieved when she heard what she said. In fact, what she was most afraid of was Concubine Hu. If she didn't handle it well, the emperor would still blame her. If Concubine Hu didn't become arrogant because of her favor, it would be easier to handle.
Things in the palace were settled like this.
After Prince Anfeng and his wife retired from the army, they stayed for two days and left the palace.
As soon as they left, Yuan Qingling failed to hide the fact that the first assistant was blind and informed everyone.
Aunt Xi had already figured it out. The princess didn't say this, and she didn't say it either. In a few days, she had accepted that if he couldn't be cured, she would be his eyes and lead him to see this.
world.
Nothing makes me happier than that he is alive.
The Supreme Emperor and Duke Xiaoyao may not have spoken for a long time, but it was Chu Shoufu who said: We are old, and we see the world with our hearts, not our eyes. Does it matter if we have these two eyeballs? Just have a clear heart.
Yes! After the Supreme Emperor and Duke Xiaoyao agreed with his words, they called Yuan Qingling out and stared at him for questioning.
Will it be better? When will it be better? What should be done? The Emperor asked a series of questions.
Yuan Qingling said truthfully, everything is unknown. It depends on whether the blood clot in his brain can be absorbed. If it can be absorbed, I believe he can see the light again. If it cannot be absorbed, besides blindness, there will be other problems.
sequelae.
Is there no other way? The Supreme Emperor's heart is tightening again. This is a rare relief. I didn't expect that this haze has not passed yet.
Not yet! Yuan Qingling said helplessly, after a pause, maybe letting him leave the palace and find a place with a good environment to live would make him feel more relaxed, and it would also be helpful to his condition and injury.
The atmosphere in this palace is too depressing.
The Supreme Emperor had long thought of doing this. After listening to Yuan Qingling's suggestion, he asked people to pack up the royal courtyard and move there at a selected date.
The Supreme Emperor moved out of the palace with complete determination, and he probably won't move back.
Emperor Ming Yuan tried to persuade them to stay, but was unable to do so, so he had to order chariots and horses to send them away. When they arrived, the Supreme Emperor did not even say a word to him. Instead, the chief minister said that the old minister was now in poor health and could not hold important positions. This poem
The veteran minister wants to resign from the post of assistant, but I hope the emperor will give me permission!
Emperor Ming Yuan's nose felt sour. He thought of how hard he had worked hard during his tenure as chief minister. Although he was semi-retired before, his heart was still focused on government affairs and state-owned wars, and he went to war without hesitation.
The first assistant should just take good care of his injuries and don’t worry about political affairs! Emperor Ming Yuan even swallowed.
The chief minister nodded, faced Emperor Ming Yuan, and sighed softly. Your Majesty, the old minister has one more thing to say. Your Majesty, just listen. Don’t dislike the old minister’s nagging. The Northern Tang Dynasty needs to develop and cannot stagnate. The imperial court must select talents.
, To abolish the bad government, the prince needs a real team. The emperor should appropriately delegate power and establish prestige for the prince. Just like the emperor does to you, you can make suggestions in everything and stop intervening harshly!
I understand! Emperor Ming Yuan knew that what the first assistant said was true knowledge and insight, so he agreed.
Yu Wenhao was outside the palace, and together with Gu Si, he led the royal guards to escort the three emperors to the royal annex. This time, they were not staying temporarily, but moving into the annex permanently, so they brought a lot of things, and the convoy was very long, which attracted a lot of attention.
People gathered around to watch.
Emperor Ming Yuan also sent an imperial physician and two medical doctors to follow him. This imperial physician's surname was Wu and he was an old imperial physician. From then on, he stayed with the Supreme Emperor in the Royal Courtyard and there was no need to return to the Imperial Hospital.
Yuan Qingling and Grandma Xi also went together in the carriage. After settling in, she prescribed medicine and told her to take it three times a day. Grandma Yuan also gave her a prescription and asked the imperial doctor to consider the decoction and take it for a while.
Check the situation at any time and decide on the follow-up treatment plan.
The chief assistant has truly stepped down, which leaves the DPRK in need of a new chief assistant.
After Yu Wenhao considered it carefully, he boldly recommended Li Jingyan.
To calm down the recommendation, he did not discuss it with Emperor Ming Yuan and recommended it directly in the morning meeting.
Jing Jingyan said that it was a tribute to the Imperial Academy. He had never been in the cabinet, so if he suddenly became the first minister, many people felt that he was not suitable.
However, Emperor Ming Yuan supported Yu Wenhao's recommendation and made Ling Yanyan the new chief minister despite all objections!
The explanation given by Emperor Ming Yuan was also very simple and clear. Although Jing Jingyan was a minister of the Imperial Academy, he had often served in front of the emperor in recent years and assisted the cabinet in handling various large and small affairs. He was more suitable than anyone else.
The emperor and the prince both supported the man, and all the officials had no objections. The court officially appointed Jing Yan as the chief minister of the Northern Tang Dynasty!
