2: Zhou Rendi, who is benevolent and loves the people
Wu Zhongxian's mind was racing rapidly.
Judging from the memory of the previous life.
Emperor Ren of Zhou was indeed a benevolent king. Although he was only nineteen years old, he had dedicated himself to serving the country since he took office three years ago.
It's a pity that even though he has the heart to govern the country, he has also put in hard work.
But after all, his talent and learning were still shallow, and he was not as domineering as Emperor Zhou Wu.
As a result, although Emperor Zhou Ren inherited the throne legitimately, many princes and grandsons did not accept him, and many intended to usurp the throne!
It was precisely internal problems that caused the Zhou Dynasty to enter a period of decline.
After all, Emperor Ren of Zhou was not Emperor Wu of Zhou, and he could not suppress these princes, grandsons, and princes and nobles.
Only a powerful Emperor Wu like Emperor Wu of Zhou could control the system of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Just changing the emperor won't work.
And the most important point is that Emperor Zhou Ren has no one to use!
Although he was an emperor, Emperor Ren of Zhou made bold moves against the princes and nobles as soon as he took office.
So much so that all ministers and even generals stood on the opposite side.
Emperor Zhou Ren's behavior was right.
Attack the princes and nobles and give opportunities to the common people.
But he was too hasty!
They would definitely not tolerate it if he attacked these princes and nobles just after he took office and before his position was firmly established.
After all, Emperor Ren of Zhou is not Emperor Wu of Zhou, so they are not afraid!
So after three years, although Emperor Ren of Zhou got the title of Emperor Ren because of his kindness to the people.
But it is indeed in danger!
…
Inside the royal study.
Wearing a bright red dragon robe and seven feet tall, Emperor Zhou Ren walked in.
Seven feet in this world, according to Wu Zhongxian's visual inspection, is about 1.75 meters.
Not too low, not too high.
But what Wu Zhongxian paid more attention to was the appearance of Emperor Zhou Ren.
"As expected of a member of the royal family, he takes good care of himself. He is obviously a man, but he is as white and tender as jade! Even his hands are more tender than a woman's!"
Wu Zhongxian's thoughts were spinning in his heart.
After saluting, he continued to stand guard with his head bowed.
After the death of the late emperor, Wu Zhongxian was sent by Emperor Zhou Ren to guard the imperial study.
The reason is that Wu Zhongxian often followed his father to discuss matters in the imperial study, so he was asked to accompany the late emperor here.
At that time, Wu Zhongxian almost thought that Emperor Zhou Ren was going to send him to see the late emperor...
However, it was obvious that he was overthinking it.
It has to be said that although Emperor Zhou Ren was not domineering, his method of beating people was exactly the same as his father, which made Wu Zhongxian frightened.
Wu Zhongxian also understood that although he had some power in the palace, it was impossible to compete with the emperor!
It's okay for you to be greedy for money, but if you dare to touch the imperial power, a bunch of princes, nobles, ministers and military officers will kill you!
Emperor Zhou Ren sat on the chair where Emperor Zhou Wu once sat, looking at the piles of reference books on the table, thinking about what happened in recent days, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Father, the country is in turmoil now, what should I do, son and minister..."
Emperor Zhou Ren's red lips moved and his voice was very low.
But Wu Zhongxian was at the third level of martial arts, and his senses were different from ordinary people, so he naturally heard it.
The eunuchs nearby didn't hear it.
This is the difference between Wuxue people and ordinary people.
"It seems that the little emperor is indeed under a lot of pressure. On his wedding night today, he did not go to the bridal chamber. Instead, he settled the government affairs here."
Wu Zhongxian sighed in his heart.
A good emperor indeed!
He is worthy of the title of benevolent emperor.
Emperor Zhou Rendi closed his eyes and meditated for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the eunuch standing upright, who was unusually cold and handsome.
He is indeed different from ordinary eunuchs.
No wonder he is favored by his father.
"Wu Zhongxian."
Emperor Zhou Ren spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, I am here."
Most eunuchs call themselves slaves, but Wu Zhongxian can call himself a minister because of the late emperor.
This is a reflection of status and dignity.
Emperor Zhou Ren looked at Wu Zhongxian, with an opaque light in his eyes, and said: "Wu Aiqing, as the most trusted minister of the late emperor, your great Zhou Dynasty is declining day by day. Do you have a plan to turn the tide?"
Wu Zhongxian's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately lowered his head, cupped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, I dare not speak nonsense about national affairs, nor do I have any plans."
Emperor Zhou Ren stared closely at Wu Zhongxian.
This eunuch is indeed what my father said, he is a cunning and smart guy.
Then Emperor Zhou Ren stopped asking and started to pick up the memorial on the table and read through it.
Wu Zhongxian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
How could he not know that the emperor was testing himself?
If Wu Zhongxian answered yes just now, it would prove that he secretly thought about touching national politics and imperial power!
If a eunuch thinks about such a thing, isn't he looking for death?
So even if Wu Zhongxian really has a plan, it can’t be said that he does!
"As expected, he is indeed the son of Emperor Wu of Zhou. His scheming has a royal demeanor."
Wu Zhongxian sighed in his heart, as if he had returned to the time when Emperor Wu of Zhou was still alive.
Emperor Wu of Zhou would hit Wu Zhongxian like this every now and then.
Now that his son is in power, he uses exactly the same method.
Wu Zhongxian was also dumbfounded.
What a biological father and son!
It's past midnight.
The time is already twelve o'clock at midnight.
Outside the window, the sky is filled with darkness and stars.
In the imperial study room, the lights are brightly lit.
Emperor Rendi of Zhou Dynasty was revising the memorials without sleeping or eating.
Under normal circumstances, it would be normal for Emperor Zhou Ren to forget about food and sleep.
But something was wrong today.
Because today is the emperor’s wedding night!
The queen had been waiting in the palace for midnight, and the emperor had not yet thought about consummating the marriage.
This is very strange!
Even Wu Zhongxian felt something was fishy.
"Is it possible that the queen is not good-looking?"
Wu Zhongxian thought about it and came up with only this strange reason.
Unless the queen was ugly, why didn't the emperor consummate the marriage?
This reason is the only one that might be reasonable.
Because the emperor and the prince Lu family had a political marriage.
Before this, the emperor had never even seen what the daughter of the Lu family looked like.
However, in order to consolidate the imperial power and gain the support of Lu, a powerful prince, the emperor chose to marry Lu Hou's daughter and make her his queen.
This is the simplest, most direct, and effective way to win over a powerful prince.
Marrying the daughter of Marquis Lu means becoming an in-law and having a relationship of relatives.
To make Lu Hou's daughter the queen is to give the Lu family rights.
As long as the Zhou Dynasty does not fall, the Lu family will be relatives of the emperor!
Therefore, the Lu family, a powerful princely family, would no longer stand against the Zhou Dynasty.
He would even try his best to prevent the Great Zhou Dynasty from falling.
As long as the Zhou Dynasty does not fall, the status of the Lu family will become higher and higher!
After all, the daughter of the Lu family is the queen of the Zhou Dynasty!
Mother honors the world!
Below one person, above ten thousand people!!
This status is very high.
This is a political marriage.
"Wu Zhongxian."
When Wu Zhongxian was thinking wildly, Emperor Zhou Ren suddenly looked at him.
Wu Zhongxian immediately responded: "I'm here."
"Can I trust you?"
"I am willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty!"
Wu Zhongxian immediately expressed his loyalty.
"Okay! Now, I have something very important to tell you."
Emperor Zhou Ren's expression became more solemn than ever before.
Wu Zhongxian's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
