Su Mingzhe and Guo Youzhi chatted for a while, and Guo Youzhi went back with a memorial that Su Mingzhe did not agree with.
Generally, there will be three situations when a memorial is handed over by a courtier: agree, disagree, and remain without issue.
If it is 'disagreed', as the emperor, he will usually write down his own opinion, then call it back and return it to himself and his department.
If it was agreed, Su Mingzhe approved it with a red pen and sent it to the inner court to write an imperial edict, stamp it with a jade seal, and send it to Zhongshu's family to make the world famous.
Zhongshu's disciples will review this imperial edict. If they agree, it will be published in the world.
This means that this imperial edict is the result of the concerted efforts of everyone in the imperial court.
If the application does not pass the review under Zhongshu, we will call you back directly.
If Su Mingzhe insisted on issuing this imperial edict, he would either discuss it with the cabinet and have the cabinet persuade Zhongshu's subordinates to agree, or issue it forcefully. This is called the edict.
The so-called "zhongzhi" refers to the decree issued by the emperor himself.
Generally speaking, only ministers, that is, eunuchs, will obey such orders.
And the civil and military officials in the court have the right to refuse to accept such an edict issued by the emperor.
To resist the imperial edict is to confiscate your family and exterminate your clan.
However, resisting the imperial edict is the most popular thing for all officials in the court.
It is precisely because Zhongshu's subordinates have such powerful power that Su Mingzhe immediately transferred his best friend Xin Qiwu to take charge of Zhongshu's subordinates during the small court meeting yesterday. This is also to make his will pass.
Unimpeded enlightenment spreads throughout the world.
In addition, there is a third type, which is to stay in the middle without making a move.
Leaving it in without publishing it means that the emperor has opinions on the contents of the memorial, which can be regarded as a passive and slow way of handling the memorial.
After Guo Youzhi left, another eunuch reported that some ministers from the court came to see him.
Su Mingzhe declared directly.
Su Mingzhe basically spent the whole morning dealing with official duties like this.
At noon, Su Mingzhe went to visit his 'grandma' and 'mother' again.
Finally, we had a meal at Yaohua Palace.
By the afternoon.
Duke Liu requested an audience.
Liu Guogong was the father-in-law of Fan Jian, the biological grandfather of Versace, and the biological father of Liu Ruyu, who was the minister of the Ministry of War.
Qing's military power is three-thirds, Qin Ye, the first person in the army, accounts for one-third, the Ye family accounts for one-fourth, Liu Guogong accounts for almost one-fifth, and the remaining people account for one-fifth.
About one.
When Duke Liu Guo came to request an audience, Su Mingzhe naturally expressed his welcome.
"Old minister, I respectfully send you your holy greetings."
"The Duke of the Kingdom has invited you to rise. Eunuch Hou, please give me a seat."
When Su Mingzhe saw Liu Guogong's respectful attitude, he showed a satisfied look.
This Duke of Liu had only inherited the title for less than ten years. After ascending to the title, he was extremely low-key in his conduct and work.
This time he entered the palace neither for himself nor for official business, but for his daughter, Vern Sizhe's mother Liu Ruyu.
More than ten years ago, Liu Ruyu, as the granddaughter of the current Liu Guogong, unexpectedly entered the gate of Earl Sinan's Mansion as a 'concubine'.
After this incident happened, Duke Liu's mansion became a joke in Kyoto for a while.
Because of this matter, Liu Guogong's Mansion and Count Sinan's Mansion rarely interacted with each other except during the New Year holidays.
…Later, when the old Duke passed away and Liu Ruyu’s father ascended the throne, the two families slowly resumed their contacts.
However, for Liu Guogong, Liu Ruyu's status as a concubine in Earl Sinan's Mansion is still a scar.
Yesterday, Su Mingzhe told Fan Jian to help a concubine to be straightened up, and also to let one of his sons succeed him.
In fact, it was to let Fan Jian support Aunt Liu and let Versace ascend to the throne.
After Fan Jian returned home, he told Liu Ruyu about this.
Now, the emperor personally asked Fan Jian to straighten Liu Ruyu, and Liu Ruyu was naturally extremely happy.
This morning, Liu Ruyu spread the good news back to her parents' home.
After Liu Guogong returned home from duty, he received the news and immediately went to the palace to express his gratitude.
When Su Mingzhe learned the reason for Liu Guogong's coming, he felt like complaining.
He also thought that Liu Guogong came to the palace this time because "those who know the current affairs are heroes" and took refuge in him.
However, this is also good.
At least we all have a closer relationship.
Later, Su Mingzhe praised Liu Guogong, which brought the relationship between monarch and minister closer.
In the evening, Su Mingzhe was preparing to eat when he was suddenly informed that Li Yunrui came to request an audience again.
Su Mingzhe naturally asked Eunuch Hou to invite her in.
As a result, after a while, Eunuch Hou trotted in with a strange expression and winked at Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe was a little surprised. He stood up and looked outside. He saw Li Yunrui lightly applying makeup, wearing a bright pink dress, revealing the deep white peaks of the snow valley. It was like Su Daji was reincarnated, and he came to Su Mingzhe lightly. :
"Yun Rui pays homage to His Majesty."
"Auntie, please get up. Eunuch Hou will give you a seat."
When Su Mingzhe saw Li Yunrui's charming attire, he sighed in his heart, this woman is really courageous.
According to the imperial decree, from the day of the emperor's death, the soldiers and civilians across the country are required to take off their crowns and tassels and wear plain tassels within twenty-seven days. They are not allowed to marry within one month and are not allowed to have fun within a hundred days...
Yesterday, as the mother of a country, the queen took off her phoenix crown and harem and put on a plain long dress.
As a result, Li Yunrui put on makeup and powder today, and even wore a half-revealing palace skirt and ran to the imperial study to see him.
If this news gets out, I am afraid that none of the civil and military officials, as well as the Queen Mother, will spare this woman lightly.
"Your Majesty, haven't you eaten yet?"
Li Yunrui stood up slowly, like a weak willow supporting the wind, and said with a timid and charming smile:
"I happen to be hungry too. I wonder if Your Majesty can let me have some food?"
While the woman was talking, she also gave Su Mingzhe a flirtatious look, and the sultry meaning in her eyes was obvious.
Su Mingzhe wanted not to agree, but he agreed honestly:
"Auntie is hungry, we just want to eat together."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
I'm afraid this vixen is really the reincarnation of Su Daji.
The two had dinner together, and Li Yunrui accompanied Su Mingzhe to do some family cooking for a while.
Su Mingzhe asked Li Yunrui to resign on the pretext that he had to deal with the memorial.
Li Yunrui was also helpless. She really wanted to throw herself on the man, but there were so many people watching around her.
...In the end, she could only take a deep look at Su Mingzhe again, and then reluctantly said goodbye:
"Your Majesty, my concubine will come back tomorrow."
"Auntie, walk slowly."
Su Mingzhe waved his hand to Eunuch Hou to see him off, but he couldn't get up on his own.
"If this coquettish vixen comes here two more times, I'm afraid I'll have to touch him in the middle of the night..."
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day that Su Mingzhe ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
Zhongshu ordered Xin Qiwu to approve all the imperial edicts sent by Su Mingzhe yesterday and issue them directly.
From today on, the original Queen Mother will be the Queen Mother, but she will continue to live in Yanshou Palace.
The queen was upgraded to the queen mother and moved to Yanfu Palace.
Yaohua Palace is where the queen lives.
Now that the Queen Mother has been upgraded, it is no longer convenient for her to continue living here.
Emperor Qing's other concubines (including the mothers of the three princes and the maids whom Emperor Qing slept with) would also move to Yanfu Palace to live with the Queen Mother.
This was to prevent Su Mingzhe from going to the wrong palace and becoming brother-in-law with Emperor Qing.
This is all customary and no one says anything.
When Su Mingzhe went to visit the Empress Dowager at noon, Yanshou Palace was still quite quiet.
But when we arrived at Yanfu Palace, we found that many concubines were moving, causing palace maids and eunuchs to run around carrying things.
"Your Majesty is here, sit down quickly."
The Queen Mother, who was holding rosary beads and reciting scriptures silently, heard Su Mingzhe coming over. While ordering people to pass the meal, she stretched out her hand to signal Su Mingzhe not to kneel down.
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Su Mingzhe didn't want to kneel down, but as an emperor he had to set an example for the world.
If he does not abide by etiquette, he will easily bring evil to the people of the world.
According to the rule of 'sleep without talking, eat without talking', the two of them had dinner.
The Queen Mother took Su Mingzhe's hand and started chatting again.
Su Mingzhe chatted with her for a while, and was about to leave, but unexpectedly the Queen Mother held her tightly:
"Qian'er, has your aunt visited you every night these past two days?"
Su Mingzhe was shocked, knowing that the news still spread, and quickly explained:
"Mother, my aunt is worried about me. After all, my father has just been assassinated. She came to the imperial study just to have a look. She sat there for a while and then left."
"Qian'er, you are a child with a simple mind and a kind heart. You cannot think of other people's evil thoughts."
When the Queen Mother saw Su Mingzhe defending Li Yunrui's behavior, she couldn't help but speak ill of her sister-in-law:
"Your aunt likes the most...the handsome young master. She made a big mistake because of this. She gave birth to Chen'er out of wedlock. In order to punish her, your father put her under house arrest in the palace and did not allow her to step out.
Half a step away from the palace. Now, I think she has her thoughts set on you..."
"Mother, how is this possible?"
Su Mingzhe quickly denied that although he was indeed in love with Li Yunrui Lang and was interested in concubine, he could never admit it in front of other people.
The Queen Mother didn't care what Su Mingzhe thought, she just said to herself:
"You don't have to be afraid. I will go to the Queen Mother later and ask her to issue an order for you, a good aunt, to stay in Guangxin Palace for the rest of her life."
"Alas...this matter...it's up to the queen to make the decision."
Su Mingzhe also knew that this 'real mother' was afraid that she and Li Yunrui would 'make a big mistake', so he had no choice but to let Li Yunrui bear the consequences.
Seeing that Su Mingzhe had no objection, the Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction. She did not want to be separated from her son, and then she said again:
"Qian'er, you have ascended the throne and proclaimed yourself emperor. The harem must not be without a master for a day. The Queen Mother will discuss with the Queen Mother to choose a concubine for you. If you have a girl you like, you can also tell the Queen Mother..."
"Mom, if my father dies, the whole country will be banned from getting married for a month."
Su Mingzhe didn't expect that the Queen Mother would mention choosing a concubine for him, so he quickly reminded her.
The Queen Mother didn't take it seriously: "I'm just making preparations, not marrying into the palace right away."
When Su Mingzhe heard what the Queen Mother said, he stopped twisting and said directly:
"Mother, my child really has two people he likes."
The Queen Mother did not expect that her son actually had someone he liked, so she couldn't help but said happily:
"Oh, which daughter does Qian'er like?"
Su Mingzhe hesitated for a moment and then said:
"The two people I like, one is the most talented girl in Kyoto - Fan Ruoruo, the daughter of Uncle Sinan, and...and...the cousin Chen'er."
