These days, a piece of news suddenly appeared in Beijing. As soon as this news appeared, it immediately occupied the top of the political, entertainment, gossip and other major news rankings. That was Emperor Chongzhen who was diligent in state affairs and did not like women.
After taking the throne, for the first time, a private draft of women began.
"Children from good families must be between fourteen and below sixteen years old. They must be of pure moral character, have a clean family, and have a good appearance."
And around this news, all kinds of people started taking various actions.
In the palace of a certain great eunuch.
"Godfather! In this talent show, you have to arrange for some of your god-grandsons to go to various wealthy state capitals. The children will pay attention to the filial piety of the godfather, but the show girl
Which level should I choose and how much money should I charge? I still need my godfather to come up with a strategy."
"According to the emperor's wishes, this draft is to be held near the capital. At most, Shandong, Shanxi, and even Jiangnan may not be included. Therefore, there will not be many people going out, and the Zajia family will not be able to go.
I have saved my face and asked for five places for you. However, the places you go to are good and bad, and they will be decided by drawing lots in the future. But you have to tell the monkey boys, what about the other show girls? The Za family doesn't care. But
You must choose a girl, and she must be rated as high-quality, and she must not be charged or neglected. You must treat her as the master of the palace. Otherwise, if anyone offends her in the slightest, the Za family will seize her.
His skin."
"Oh? Is it that Xiuli store?"
"She is the sister of Concubine Tian's family. We, the big stewards in the palace, are all thinking: The emperor's grandpa's selection of girls this time may be to select Concubine Tian's sister into the palace. So remember! Don't offend her.
Grandpa Huang is unhappy."
"Hey! I understand, kid."
The residence of Tian Hongyu, the father of Concubine Tian.
"Master! There is a rumor in Beijing that this time the emperor's female selection is to select Shuying. Can you do more activities to increase your confidence by three points? I also asked Shuying to prepare early, and then let our Tian family
Without losing a single favor.”
"What do you know? Shuying's entry into the palace has been decided since she was a child. We don't need to do anything. But look at the daughter you taught. Her sexual skills are among the best in the world, but she doesn't understand the world at all. Originally, I
I was planning to wait for Shuying to enter the palace and ask her sister to take more care of her. But Xiuying left early, and I don’t know how Shuying will be bullied when she enters the palace. Alas——! "
"Then Master! What should we do?"
"What else can I do? I have figured out a way these days. I am planning to take a hundred thousand taels of silver and go to the south of the Yangtze River to find some of the most beautiful women in the south of the Yangtze River and send them to the palace together with Shuying."
"Isn't it true that this time the emperor will not choose beautiful girls from Jiangnan? And with so many beauties, aren't they divided into Shuying's favors?"
"From a woman's point of view, if we divide favors, how can those women have a status in the palace if they are not from a humble background? Shouldn't Shuying be the leader and have a higher status in the palace? Nothing can be better than Shuying's.
Safety is more important."
"Yes, sir! When will you leave?"
"Leave immediately."
A certain young Ke Daoyan visited the official residence.
"In the current national crisis, the emperor does not think about national affairs, but indulges in beauty. This is not true. We should write a letter to dissuade you, and my younger brother also wrote a remonstrance. It will be submitted tomorrow. If you agree with it,
.It can be a joint name or a solo performance. We must stop this unhealthy trend."
"I co-sign!"
"Brother, I will play together tomorrow."
…
"The emperor has been on the throne for fifteen years, but he has not chosen any beautiful women. There is also a shortage of maids in the palace. This is not a big deal! As long as the eunuchs are not allowed to pretend to be powerful and poison the people, we should not deny them all!
"
"Brother Li, this is ridiculous! Once the emperor issues an edict, those eunuchs will be like tigers out of the cage. How can they follow the rules? Moreover, once the emperor gets used to having fun, it may get worse in the future, and we should take precautions."
"Okay, okay! What you said makes sense. I will also sign on."
After learning that Emperor Chongzhen, who had always been strict with himself in life and indifferent to appearances, suddenly proposed to select a group of additional concubines, the courtiers were quite disapproving of this. Some angry young officials even felt that: now is a national crisis, and there are no opportunities.
However, the emperor suddenly turned his attention to women, which was really unbecoming of a king. So the cabinet ministers and officials warned him tactfully, but deliberately delayed it.
Emperor Chongzhen was too embarrassed to fall out with his courtiers over this matter, so in the end he had no choice but to let it go. The incident of the talent show girl was brought to an anticlimactic end. It was really sad to kill a group of eunuchs who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune!
However, knowing Emperor Chongzhen's personal eunuch and Tian Guifei's father, Tian Hongyu, did guess what Emperor Chongzhen was thinking. Tian Guifei, a younger sister named Tian Shuying, was very similar to her elder sister in appearance and temperament. She had entered the hospital when she was a child.
Palace, which made Emperor Chongzhen very happy. Emperor Chongzhen once put a flower on the little girl's head and said half-jokingly: "This is a member of my family." So this time the selection of girls, more reasons are reflected
A kind of longing for Concubine Tian.
But in this draft, it cannot be ruled out that Emperor Chongzhen temporarily developed a self-destruction mentality after years of efforts, failures, and finally haggardness. And those kings who subjugated their countries in history either ignored the country's catastrophic difficulties or indulged in indulgence.
Is it because of sensuality? However, Emperor Chongzhen was indeed a "Zhu Jianqiang". After being dissuaded by his ministers, he actually cheered up his fighting spirit and devoted himself to the endless troubles of government affairs.
And Tian Hongyu did not cancel his trip to Jiangnan to select stunning beauties. After that, he still spent a lot of money in Jiangnan to purchase a batch of stunning beauties with both beauty and art, and the most beautiful one was from Suzhou - Chen Yuanyuan
.
On the outskirts of Kaifeng City, in the main camp of Chuangying.
Li Zicheng waved goodbye to Luo Rucai and his party. When he saw them in the distance, he smiled and shook his head, and returned to his command post, a mansion left by an escaped squire.
At this time, all the generals who broke into the camp were also in their respective troops, so only Song Xiance, Niu Jinxing, Li Yan and other military advisors were left in the study room of this mansion.
When he saw the military advisers, Li Zicheng said with a mocking tone: "Then Cao Cao couldn't bear his temper anymore. He felt that there would be no benefit in besieging the city. Even if he captured Kaifeng, he thought he would be eaten up by me, so he
I'm a little unhappy. Am I actually such a person? As long as you give me Kaifeng, even if you give him all the property in the city, so what?"
"King Chuang! Kaifeng is an important town in the Central Plains. You can win the Central Plains. Don't waver. This is the foundation of our camp!" Li Yan on the side immediately advised. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature,
