Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "That's because you only have one concubine. In all dynasties, when the prince ascended the throne, the prince's main concubine became the queen, but now this position is vacant!"
"I wronged you that day when I asked you to follow me back as my concubine. Now I can no longer wrong you!" Li Huang said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I will solve this matter!"
"Among those who objected, was there Lu Youli?" Chu Yiqing asked with a sudden smile.
Li Huang was startled, then turned to look at Chu Yiqing: "How do you know? Lu Youli, this old boy, I think he is quite upright. In addition, he is Yang Xin's brother-in-law, so he was promoted to the position of Minister of Rites, who would have known?
He is so ignorant that he takes the lead in asking me to choose a concubine and expand the Sixth Palace!"
Chu Yiqing smiled slowly and said: "Before you come back, those women have already come to my place to insinuate me! Now it seems that Mrs. Yang's words today turned out to be foreshadowing for this matter!" [
"Yang Xin's wife is here? What is she here for?" Li Huang frowned.
"What about Yang Xin? What's Yang Xin's attitude?" Chu Yiqing didn't answer, but asked.
Li Huang said: "This time Yang Xin was wise enough to support me in making you my queen, and even argued with Lu Youli in the main hall!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "It seems that Chu Huan's choice of this time to marry Yang Mo'er has played a role!"
Li Huang looked at her: "You can still laugh?"
Chu Yiqing slowly took a sip of tea and said: "I don't care about the queen's position. If I'm not a queen, I can still live outside the palace!"
Li Huang quickly grabbed her hand and said: "Even if you are not the queen, you cannot live outside the palace. Today, Lu Youli's brochure specifically mentioned this matter. This Lu Youli, I actually underestimated him at the beginning!"
"Now that you are about to ascend the throne, it will be too late to replace Lu Youli. He is sure of this, so he is a little bit scrupulous!" Chu Yiqing said calmly.
"You are only half right. Unless Lu Youli doesn't want his head - after I ascend the throne, I will have many opportunities to deal with him! Lu Youli is too upright in temperament. They are indeed afraid of your identity!" Li Huang sighed
The tone said.
Chu Yiqing hesitated slightly and whispered: "This kind of person is even more difficult to deal with. He is a loyal minister and can do practical things, but he can also do bad things!"
Li Huang nodded, but still shook her hand and said: "Don't worry, I will solve this matter sooner or later!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Actually, I'm really not in a hurry, but right now it seems that we have to move into the palace as soon as possible, otherwise, the Minister Lu will grab the pigtail again!"
Li Huang nodded and said: "I also have such intention, you can clean up tomorrow and go into the palace!"
Chu Yiqing nodded, thinking about it for so long, this step will have to be taken sooner or later, so take it as it comes!
The next day, the Prince's Mansion became very busy, especially when Chu Yiqing packed up everything in the room and transported it into the palace.
Today, neither Abao nor Hua Lin went to class. They each ordered their personal maids to pack their belongings and brought them to the hall together.
Mrs. Huangfu was caught off guard when she heard that Chu Yiqing was going to the palace today. She hurriedly came in and asked, "Are you going to the palace today? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Sooner or later, there will be such a day!" Chu Yiqing smiled, shook Old Mrs. Huangfu's hand and said comfortingly: "Mom, A Bao and I will bless you to enter the palace, and you will move to Huangfu Mansion to wait for the palace.
Once you're settled in Li'an, I'll have someone take you into the palace!"
Mrs. Huangfu nodded and said: "You don't have to worry about me, just make arrangements for yourself! But if you enter the palace like this, what will Concubine Qing do?" [
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Since she has the ability to change her appearance, it is very easy to enter the palace. Mom, don't worry about her!"
Li Huang walked all the way with a cold face that day. Although Chu Yiqing didn't ask, he somewhat understood in his heart, and his grudge against Concubine Qing was particularly deep.
Mrs. Huangfu had no choice but to agree, help pack her things, and then said: "You must be careful when you enter the palace. Don't rely on the prince to love you. You are not careful yourself. Not many men are trustworthy!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Mom, I know, don't worry, I know it well!"
Mrs. Huangfu stopped talking and just helped pack up the blessing clothes and other items and carefully put them according to categories.
After a day of hard work, in the evening, the palace sent two large carriages, one to pull people and the other to pull things, and they entered the palace in a grand manner.
At this moment, the palace is preparing for the new emperor to ascend the throne, and the eunuchs and maids are all in a hurry.
Chu Yiqing opened the curtains and looked at the magnificent Yongding Gate. She couldn't help but curl her lips. She finally entered the palace!
The news that the new emperor was about to ascend the throne spread quickly, and on the next day, emperor lists were posted at government offices across the country.
In a small county town in Pingliang, a group of people gathered at the gate of the county government. One of them, a man who looked like a scholar, was reading the imperial list: "The new emperor will succeed to the throne in ten days. The whole world celebrates!"
"Great, the new emperor is about to ascend the throne!" An old man in the crowd said happily: "Speaking of which, I am very lucky. I have met the new emperor before!"
As soon as the old man said this, everyone gathered around him and asked curiously: "What does the new emperor look like? Is he really nine feet tall and powerful as the rumors say?"
The old man stroked his beard slowly, shook his head and said: "Is he still a human being when he is nine feet tall? I remember that the new emperor has a slender figure, a handsome face, and is thin and capable. At first glance, he can hide his secrets.
people!"
"The emperor's list only mentions that the new emperor will ascend the throne, but it does not say that the queen will be appointed. There were rumors before that the old emperor was going to draft a draft, but he hasn't chosen yet. He became the supreme emperor so quickly. So, is this draft just for the new emperor?
Are you ready?" Someone even asked loudly.
"It is said that the new emperor who is about to ascend the throne has only one concubine, and that is the famous Miss Chu!" The old man stroked his beard and said slowly.
"Miss Chu? Is it Miss Chu who is also known as the Goddess of Agriculture?" The scholar-looking person who was confused before asked quickly.
The old man nodded and said, "It is indeed Miss Chu!"
"It turns out to be the Goddess of Agriculture. I heard that the South-to-North Water Diversion Project was also a masterpiece of the Goddess of Agriculture. If the Goddess of Agriculture becomes our queen, it will be a great blessing to the country!" the young man said excitedly.
The old man paused and asked, "Young man, are you from Lucheng? Apart from the people in Lucheng who know the reason, everyone in the world thinks that the South-to-North Water Diversion project is the result of the imperial court!"
The young man quickly said: "Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Xiaoke happened to arrive in Lucheng a few years ago and saw the big South-to-North Water Diversion Project. It was really amazing! The imperial court only took the lead, but what happened to this route and the water source?
Isn’t it a gift from the Goddess of Agriculture?”
The old man stroked his beard and said: "Young man, you are right. If the Goddess of Agriculture can become the queen of the Li Kingdom, it will be a blessing to the people!"
At this time, a middle-aged man in the crowd whispered: "Don't talk nonsense, you don't know, the ministers in the court are opposed to the Goddess of Agriculture being the queen!" [
As soon as the middle-aged man said this, the young man quickly grabbed him and asked, "Why? The Goddess of Agriculture is both talented and virtuous, so why can't she be the mother of the world?"
The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed. He looked at the official standing at the yamen door and whispered: "A relative of mine is on duty in the palace. He told me personally that the Goddess of Agriculture was a member of the royal family of the previous dynasty.
Think about it, it would be great if the emperor of the current dynasty did not kill her. How could he let the royal family of the previous dynasty become the queen? If she really became the queen and the son she gave birth to became the prince, she would be the emperor in the future, wouldn't it?
Is it a disguised restoration of the country?”
"The Goddess of Agriculture is from the royal family of the previous dynasty. I have heard of it a few days ago, but didn't the Goddess of Agriculture marry the prince in the end?" Someone else raised a question.
"Marrying a prince is just a side concubine, not a main concubine! Think about it, if the imperial court can accept the Goddess of Agriculture, how can she be just a side concubine based on her ability? This side concubine is the clue!"
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows mysteriously.
When the middle-aged man said this, everyone fell silent. The old man suddenly said: "What about the previous royal family? We, the common people, don't care who becomes the emperor. What we want to see is who can make the people eat, clothe and live."
Have a good life! Now that everyone is here, I will not hide it from everyone. I am the old man Rong from Rong County. Everyone knows that the peaches in Rong County are tributes and are the best in the world. But they don’t know that if there is no Goddess of Agriculture, we
The peaches in Rong County have long since disappeared!”
The old man Rong looked excited, and the beard on his face stood up.
"So you are the old village chief of Rong County. The peaches in Rong County are now famous all over the world. Even foreign businessmen come to buy them. I even heard that there was a peach fairy in your Rong County. Is it true?
"The middle-aged man quickly stepped forward and said,
"That Peach Fairy Queen is not Miss Chu. Back then, Miss Chu taught us the grafting method to save our ancestors' peach trees. We, the people of Rong County, have not repaid this kindness! Today, I was out to play and passed by this place. I didn't expect to hear such a thing.
After hearing the shocking news, Old Man Rong must go back immediately and ask the people of Rong County to sign a petition asking the new emperor to make the Goddess of Agriculture his queen!" Old Man Rong became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally he beat the ground hard with his cane.
Turned around and left.
"I used to think that the story of the Goddess of Agriculture was a legend, but it turned out to be true! This grandpa is so talented that he is willing to write a petition for the lives of the people in Rong County!" The young man said and hurriedly chased after her.
Among the crowd, another old woman stood up and said: "Last year, there was great chaos in Pingliang. We fled to Lucheng to escape the war, and it was the Goddess of Agriculture who gave us porridge and medicine and took us in.
The Goddess of Agriculture persuaded us to stay that day, but because we still had relatives here, we insisted on coming back, but it was the Goddess of Agriculture who provided us with all the travel expenses and food. This great kindness has always been engraved in our hearts, and we have never had the chance to repay it! Now is the time.
It’s time to repay the favor of the Goddess of Agriculture. Folks, how about we also jointly submit a letter asking for orders? If you can’t write, just press your fingerprints. We must go to heaven to listen, so that the new emperor can hear the voices of our people!"
After the old woman finished speaking, everyone present responded. At this moment, some people took out the paper and pen and ink they had brought with them. Those who could write their names wrote their names, and those who couldn't write their names just pressed their fingerprints. Slowly
, there are more and more people.
After the county government official heard about it, he quickly took his people out to check. When he saw a large group of people in front of the imperial list, they were all excited. The government official drove away one group, and another group came. Finally, the county government official
The master could only sigh and said: "They are just some hot-headed people. How can it be so easy to go to Datian to listen? As long as they don't cause big trouble, that's all!"
From then on, the county government ignored it, and the scope of people's petitions became larger and larger. However, in just a few days, half of the people in Pingliang signed and pledged their signatures. Lu Laosi took the opportunity to organize people and collect the petitions.
Come up.
The people's petition spread rapidly, first to Pingliang and then to Lucheng.
In the yamen of Chu Hancheng, Baiyuan Zeng received the official document of the new emperor's enthronement, with a mixed look on his face.
"Master, madam, please come to the back hall to talk!" The maid next to Madam Bai came and said.
Bai Yuanzeng nodded and went to the back hall.
In the back hall room, Mrs. Bai couldn't restrain her excitement. Seeing Bai Yuan Zeng enter the room, she quickly asked: "Have you really received the official document of the new emperor's enthronement? Is Miss Chu the queen?"
Bai Yuanzeng shook his head and said: "The official document did not mention the establishment of a queen!"
Madam Bai was startled and asked in confusion: "How is it possible? The prince only has one concubine, who could it be if it wasn't Miss Chu?"
Bai Yuanzeng was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Women, please don't discuss the government's affairs unreasonably!"
If it were the past, Madam Bai would definitely not ask further, but this time, Madam Bai firmly said: "I am not making arbitrary comments on the government, I just care about Miss Chu. Sir, Miss Chu is the benefactor of our family, don't you think so?"
Don’t you want her to become the mother of a country and the mother of the world?”
Bai Yuanzeng hesitated for a moment and had to say: "How could I not understand Madam's thoughts? Regarding this issue, I have secretly sent someone to the capital to inquire about it. Although the person said it clearly, it was clear that the old emperor did not want to
The idea of making Miss Chu the queen is because of Miss Chu’s status, many ministers in the court are opposed to it!”
"Miss Chu's identity? What is Miss Chu's identity?" Madam Bai shouted unhappily.
"Don't get excited, Miss Chu is from the royal family of the previous dynasty, you don't know about this!" Bai Yuanzeng said quickly.
"So what, Miss Chu rebelled? If Miss Chu really wanted to rebel, how could she be willing to go back as a concubine?" Baifu's angry face turned pale.
"What do you women know? In the past dynasties, the current dynasty could not accommodate the royal family of the previous dynasty. It has always been to kill them all and eradicate them. If it weren't for the deep love between the prince and Miss Chu, and if it weren't for the bargaining chip in Miss Chu's hand, the old emperor would
How can he be willing to compromise and welcome Miss Chu back as a concubine? The old emperor can do this, but it is a desperate move! Looking at the situation, I think it’s okay to ask Miss Chu to be a concubine, but as a queen with a mother-in-law, I’m afraid..."
Bai Yuanzeng said quickly, "Even if the old emperor doesn't care about this matter, those old ministers will probably..."
"Sir, what do you mean, none of the veterans in the court support Miss Chu to be the queen?" Mrs. Bai heard the mystery and asked quickly.
"That's what the people from the capital said. I don't know the specific situation!" Bai Yuanzeng sighed.
Madam Bai frowned: "Are you just going to watch Miss Chu being bullied like this?"
"I am just a small third-grade prefect. Now I can only write a memorial. It's a pity that I am a low-key person and I am not in the capital..." Bai Yuanzengqi said.
"Then you can contact your old friends in the capital!" Madam Bai refused to give up, "They jointly object, so you can jointly agree. At least there is still hope!"
Bai Yuanzeng was startled and suddenly said: "According to what the people from the court said, the current Prime Minister Yang Xin seems to be on the side of Miss Chu. Why don't I write a letter to my old friend in the capital now to see what happens?
What’s going on!”
"When you finish writing the letter and then send it, it will be over a long time ago. Why not just write a memorial and send it directly to the prince's hands. You have also seen the love between the prince and Miss Chu. You will definitely not bet on the wrong thing this time.
!" Madam Bai said quickly.
Bai Yuanzeng hesitated slightly, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, just listen to Madam. Anyway, in the worst case, we will go back to farming. Now in Chuhan, you can have enough food and clothing just by growing vegetables for a year!"
Madam Bai nodded quickly.
The two were discussing, when a maid came to report: "Master, Master Xie is back!"
"He went to Pingliang and came back so soon? You asked him to wait in the front hall!" Bai Yuanzeng turned around and said, "Master Xie has taken people to escort the prisoners and returned from Pingliang. Now I have to go to handle official business. Madam, please don't worry. The official business has been dealt with."
I will write a memorial immediately after that!"
Mrs. Bai nodded quickly and urged Bai Yuanzeng to go quickly.
When the hundred yuan increase went to the front hall, Master Xie's brows were furrowed. When he saw the hundred yuan increase, he quickly stepped forward to salute.
"Master Xie, please get up quickly. Will this trip go smoothly?" Bai Yuanzeng quickly helped him up.
"Everything went well, but when I came back, I heard about something!" Master Xie said in a low voice, "Beizhi saw many people in Pingliang who were planning to write a petition, asking the new emperor to appoint the Goddess of Agriculture as the queen after he ascends the throne.
!”
Bai Yuanzeng was startled and whispered: "Is this true?"
Master Xie nodded and asked, "Have you received the official document from the imperial court?"
Bai Yuanzeng nodded and said: "I just received it, but I have indeed heard some rumors about the establishment of the queen!"
"It's not a rumor, it's true!" Master Xie hurriedly said, "Now the capital, Pingliang, Lucheng, and the cities closest to the capital have been rumored. The people are excited and are all going to write petitions. Your Excellency, I think this is the case.
This is a good opportunity for you to perform, if you seize this opportunity, you will definitely be able to rise to great heights!"
Bai Yuanzeng's heart moved, he raised his eyes and asked: "Master Xie really thinks this is an opportunity?"
Master Xie smiled faintly: "Have you ever heard of any queen from any dynasty or generation who was so popular among the people? You have never seen that scene. A group of people on the street were so dark that they were not doing business, and some even didn't care about their children.
Just to sign and press fingerprints, what kind of passion is that? At this moment, now, the scene is still like that before my humble eyes!"
After a slight hesitation, Bai Yuanzeng immediately decided: "Originally, I have decided to write a memorial to the emperor. Now after listening to Master Xie's words, I have strengthened my confidence in submitting the memorial!"
Master Xie said again: "Sir, just a memorial is not enough. Our Chuhan is the hometown of Miss Chu. I believe that as long as you let this news out, the people of Chuhan will be more excited and more supportive than the people of Pingliang and Lucheng."
Miss Chu, when the time comes..." Mr. Xie stepped forward and whispered in Bai Yuanzeng's ear, and Bai Yuanzeng kept nodding.
In February, spring has just begun. The mountains and forests on the earth have experienced the harsh cold of winter, washed by white snow. Under the gentle call of the spring breeze, we wake up lazily, and the greenery of spring slowly blooms, covering every corner of the world.
There are naughty birds chirping among the branches, venting their frustrations of the winter, which is very lively and joyful.
Chu Han's official road also became noisy with the arrival of spring, and motorcades passed by from time to time. The resting pavilion on the ground three miles outside the city gate has become a place for businessmen to rest and inquire about news. It is a small thatched cottage.
, a large pergola was built in front of the house with wood and thick linoleum. There were two small stoves in the corners of the shed, and two large kettles were sitting there, making a cheerful sound.
A young man with a handsome face came forward to bring hot water, brewed tea, and then poured it for the dozen or so guests in the shed with a smile.
Most of the guests were merchants, but there were also farmers, craftsmen, and even a scholar. They all came here and spent two pennies, drank a cup of hot tea, had a rest, and then rushed into the city in one go.
After the boy made the tea, he was not idle. He actually started talking about the book, and he was talking about the three dozen white-bone spirits in "Journey to the West".
"Good!" The businessman-looking man clapped quickly and couldn't help but say: "People say that Chu Han is an outstanding person. Now it's really good to see that even a boy from the small tea shed on the roadside can do this.
Tell such a touching joke!"
"You two are so ridiculous. We didn't come up with this paragraph. It was the idea of our Goddess of Agriculture, Miss Chu. Nowadays, every teahouse has a paragraph like this to attract business!" the young man said with a smile.
"Oh? Chu Han's Goddess of Agriculture is really famous. I've heard a lot of rumors along the way!" the merchant said with a smile.
"What rumors have you two merchants heard?" When the boy heard that it was related to the Goddess of Agriculture, he hurried forward and asked.
One of the merchants paused and asked: "Don't ask me first, but let me ask you, what is the reputation of this goddess of agriculture in your Chu Han?"
The boy was startled and couldn't help laughing: "This guest officer is really joking. Have you seen the official road paved with bluestones and the clear river water on both sides of the official road? Have you seen the green wheat seedlings and the mountains and plains?
Do you have a house? Nothing comes from the blessing of the Goddess Tunon!"
The merchant squinted his eyes, looked at the wheat fields as far as the eye could see and the exquisite houses in the distance, and couldn't help but ask again: "So, this goddess of agriculture has really done a lot of good things?"
"That's natural!" The boy put the towel on his shoulders, and his tone was full of pride: "Without the Goddess of Agriculture, how would Chu Han be today!"
"But I heard that your Goddess of Agriculture is going to be sent back to Chuhan!" The merchant frowned.
