Chapter five hundred and forty fourth elegant girl
Regarding the method of governing the inner palace, the Gao family's girls proposed to do everything according to the rules in the palace. In fact, this is the safest answer. After all, the palace is so big, the number of concubines, palace maids and eunuchs is the most important. So many people live in the palace, and countless big and small things happen every day. It can be said that managing the inner palace is actually similar to managing a small country. Therefore, the Gao family's girls say that everything is according to the rules is actually the most suitable method.
However, after hearing this, Zhao Xu frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, and then turned his eyes to other girls. At this time, Cao Ying's cousin Cao Ruo finally spoke: "Rules are one aspect, but I think the most important thing in governing the inner palace is to govern people. The so-called importance of both kindness and power is the king of governance!"
Later, when Gengsu heard Cao Ruo's words, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly, thinking that the little girl's answer was actually not much different from that girl named Gao, and now there was no chance. In addition, he also found that when Queen Gao heard Cao Ruo's answer, she also showed a gloating expression on her face. It seemed that she had the same idea.
Sure enough, after hearing Cao Ruo's answer, Zhao Xu frowned slightly again and looked at the remaining three girls. However, to his disappointment, two girls answered his questions next, but the meaning was no different from the previous answers of the Gao family girls, it was just a little different from the expression.
The answers of four of the five girls made Zhao Xu unsatisfied, which made him feel a little disappointed. Then he turned his eyes to the last girl in yellow palace outfit. This girl had a petite figure and beautiful appearance. Compared with other girls, the girl exuded a bookish look and looked very elegant.
The elegant girl saw Zhao Xu looking at him and immediately bowed to him, "I believe that although the palace is different from ordinary families, it is generally only a place where the royal family lives, and can also be regarded as a family. For a family, harmony is naturally the most important thing. Therefore, if a girl manages the inner palace, she will take harmony first when dealing with people and things. Only when the family is harmonious can the prince not be distracted by family affairs, so she can devote herself to government affairs!"
When Zhao Xu heard the answer of this elegant girl, not only did Zhao Xu's eyes lit up, but Zhao Shu, Zhao Yan and others behind him also looked at each other in surprise, because her answer happened to fit Zhao Xu's current idea. Although it was a bit naive to live in harmony with others in the palace, this also shows that the girl has a gentle personality and will not easily conflict with others.
At this time, Zhao Xu did not frown again, but looked up and down a few times, but still said nothing. Instead, he turned around and spoke to Zhao Shu and Empress Gao: "Your Majesty, Mother, and Son Master have finished asking questions. You can let them retreat!"
Zhao Shu and Empress Gao had already vaguely guessed Zhao Xu's choice, and they sighed helplessly. Originally, they all hoped that Zhao Xu could choose the women of the Gao family or the Cao family as their concubines, but they had already agreed to Zhao Xu that he had decided to choose a concubine himself, and it is difficult to repent now, so Zhao Shu finally signaled to Empress Gao and planned to let her leave with five girls.
Empress Gao naturally understood what Zhao Shu meant, and stood up and left, but when she walked to Zhao Xu, Empress Gao suddenly paused and then spoke to Zhao Xu: "Xu Er, the Crown Princess is my future mother of the Song Dynasty. It is related to the stability of the Song Dynasty. You must consider it carefully!"
"Thank you, my mother, for reminding me. I understand!" Zhao Xu replied respectfully, but he lowered his head at this time, making people unable to see the expression on his face, so naturally he had no way to guess what he was thinking.
Seeing Zhao Xu's appearance, Empress Gao sighed in her heart. As a mother, she naturally knew her son the most. Although Zhao Xu didn't say anything now, she already felt that Zhao Xu's determination. Her few words could not change his thoughts at all. Speaking of which, Zhao Xu was good at everything, and other aspects were willing to obey others' persuasion, but she was stubborn in marriage. I don't know who he learned from?
After Empress Gao left with five girls, Zhao Xu asked the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall to retreat. In the end, only the father and son were left in the entire hall. At this time, Zhao Yan could no longer help it and asked Zhao Xu: "Brother, do you really want to choose the last girl as the crown princess?"
"Yes, she is the princess in my mind!" Zhao Xu nodded without hesitation. He only had that Hua Zhi in his heart, so he naturally didn't want to marry a too strong woman as the princess.
"Xu'er, you're too hasty. In addition, what you heard today is just a one-sided statement. What if someone lies just now?" Zhao Shu suddenly spoke with a calm face.
"Father, I have been observing the expressions and movements of those women when they speak. Is it lying? I can tell if I ask myself!" Zhao Xu insisted stubbornly at this time, he believed that his eyes would never misjudgment.
Zhao Shu originally wanted to say something else, but seeing Zhao Xu so stubborn, he couldn't speak for a while. Finally, the expression on his face changed and finally turned into a long sigh. He closed his eyes and sat there without opening his mouth anymore. It seemed that he had already agreed with Zhao Xu's choice.
Zhao Yan next to him saw this and knew that Zhao Xu had made up his mind and it was basically impossible to change his ideas. However, compared to Zhao Shu, he felt extremely relaxed, because as long as he chose the Crown Princess, even if the matter came to an end, he would no longer have to worry about it.
"Father, those five women were carefully selected by you and your mother. It is your expectation that the eldest brother chooses. Moreover, I see that woman is elegant and modest in her manner. If she takes charge of the inner palace in the future, she can make her worry less." Zhao Yan advised Zhao Shu very easily at this time.
Hearing Zhao Yan's persuasion, Zhao Shu finally opened his eyes and looked at him, then sighed and said, "Yan'er is right. Since you have decided, you don't say much to your father. But I want to tell you one thing, no matter how much you love a concubine in the harem, you must stop at the right time, otherwise it will only cause disaster for her!"
Zhao Shu's last words were a good word. As an emperor, he would inevitably favor a certain concubine, but this kind of favor must be moderate, otherwise it would cause disaster to the concubine. For example, Concubine Qi of the Han Dynasty, Yang Yuhuan of the Tang Dynasty, etc., there was almost no good ending. Zhao Shu was also a piece of advice to his son in marriage.
"Thank you, my father, I understand!" Zhao Xu also bowed to Zhao Shu very seriously when he heard this. He also felt the kind of love from his father's words, and he was also very moved.
Seeing the scene a little heavy, Zhao Yan suddenly thought of something and asked Zhao Shu with a smile: "Father, what is the woman chosen by the eldest brother? Speaking of which, she is the eldest sister-in-law of the future, so that the princess of the second minister can get closer to you in the future."
