Zhu Youde woke up from a long night's dream and opened his eyes in an instant.
His eyes are as sharp as thunder.
The empress Luo Xian, who was already afraid of the emperor, was so frightened that she hurriedly jumped off the dragon bed and knelt on the ground trembling.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
Empress Luo thought that the emperor would be like last time this time and would immediately curse her.
But then, she heard the emperor ask confusedly.
"Did you just call me... Your Majesty?"
"I know it was wrong to disturb His Majesty's sleep! But all the ministers are waiting for you to come to court. As a queen, I can only disobey the power of heaven..."
Empress Luo was trembling and couldn't answer the questions. She was already terribly frightened in her heart.
She thought this was the emperor's casual question before he cursed, but she didn't know that the emperor had already changed someone!
Zhu Youde asked the queen, and then quickly sorted and compared the memories in his mind.
It was finally confirmed that he had traveled through time and became an emperor!
Money! Power! Women!
What many men have been pursuing their whole lives, Zhu Youde now has them all!
The only slight flaw is that the foolish king in his predecessor left a huge mess behind.
Favoring traitors, raping ministers, and building palaces...
The public dissatisfaction in Daliang Kingdom has long been boiling!
In addition, in this time and space, after the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the war between the four kingdoms continued for hundreds of years. The remaining three kingdoms, regardless of their strength, have always been eyeing the richest country, Daliang.
Such internal and external troubles!
Zhu Youde felt that he was just short of having the four characters "King of a Subjugated Country" written clearly on his face.
Great luck in this world, live another life!
He also traveled through time and became the supreme emperor who spoke of the Heavenly Constitution.
Zhu Youde did not want to become a prisoner.
"Hel me up!"
"I can't be a foolish king! I want to go up, go up..."
What the hell!
Looking at the beauty kneeling on the ground, the exaggerated curvature protrudes due to the gravity of the earth, and the trembling and towering beauty is in a light gauze dress.
Zhu Youde's mind suddenly became active, and he immediately forgot about his previous decision.
"Queen, raise your head for me."
Empress Luo slowly raised her white and tender face, which was filled with fright and pity.
Zhu Youde couldn't help but feel shocked.
Such a plump figure!
Such a pure face!
It’s simply the ceiling of pure desire!
I really don’t blame my predecessor for snatching her back to the palace on the night of the wedding. It’s true that the sixth palace has no color, and the country and the city are captivated!
It's just that the predecessor was pretentious.
Because the queen had a previous engagement and always had a grudge against her predecessor, and because she was in love with Concubine Zhang, she guarded her beauty and never touched her.
Until now, he, a time traveler, is about to benefit.
Zhu Youde patted the bedside.
Looking at the queen, she said in a gentle voice: "Xian'er, sit down."
Queen Luo looked at the emperor in surprise.
What happened to this foolish king?
He usually hits and scolds her, but now he not only calls her by her nickname, but also treats her so tenderly?
Carefully sit down on the edge of the bed.
Zhu Youde smelled the faint fragrance entering his nose and couldn't pretend it anymore.
The monkey eagerly took the warm fragrance of nephrite into his arms.
Although Empress Luo was shocked that the emperor wanted to visit her for the first time, she still remembered her grandfather's teachings before entering the palace and hurriedly reminded her:
"Your Majesty, this can't be done!"
"The ministers are still waiting for you to come to court at the Gate of Supreme Harmony!"
Being held in the emperor's arms, the man's masculine aura enveloped her whole body.
Empress Luo felt her body numb and weak, but she still tried hard to continue admonishing her, not daring to slack off at all.
"Your Majesty, my grandfather said that the Western Tang army had some unusual movements the day before yesterday, and he wanted to discuss with you whether to reorganize the army..."
Women are not cooperative.
Zhu Youde could only stop moving in frustration.
"You really want me to go to court?"
Queen Luo nodded fiercely.
Although it was not her intention, now that she has become a queen, she should take on the responsibility of being a mother to the world and persuading the king!
"Okay, if the queen can perform well, I will consider going to court."
When Queen Luo heard this, her eyes flashed with surprise.
She is the emperor's woman, and it is her duty to serve the emperor.
Even if the emperor didn't mention this condition, she would not dare to insist on it after admonishing him until this point.
Her delicate hands slowly moved to the thin ribbon around her waist.
"I am not a human being, I hope your majesty will show you some mercy."
Empress Luo, who was naked, lowered her eyebrows and turned her eyes, showing her sultry charm.
"I promise you that I will definitely take good care of you!"
Zhu Youde's mouth was already dry from seeing it.
A muffled roar came from the throat, the red curtain fell, the scenery was beautiful, and the mandarin ducks' necks were crossed.
"No wonder there were so many emperors in history who loved beauties but not the country. Who could stand this?"
Zhu Youde sighed inwardly and was sweating profusely.
After half an hour, the clouds closed and the rain stopped.
In order for the good times and beautiful scenery to last forever, Zhu Youde, who did not want to become a subjugated king, struggled to get up from the gentle countryside.
But after walking out of the gate of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youde discovered it.
The sun has just emerged!
"Wang Banban, do I go to court this early in the morning every day?"
Zhu Youde looked at Wang Zhonghou, the eunuch who had been waiting beside him, and asked in confusion.
How come he has no memory of the previous court?
"The late Emperor will go to court, no matter it is cold or hot, it will be at this time, sooner rather than later. As for your Majesty..."
Apart from ascending the throne, Your Majesty has never been to court at all!
"Change! The morning time must be changed!"
On the way to Fengtian Hall to attend court, the more Zhu Youde thought about it, the more he felt that attending court early in the morning was too inhumane!
Not even as good as the 996 blessings!
Therefore, after arriving at Fengtian Hall, Zhu Youde's first topic was...
"Your Majesty, this is not possible!"
Looking down at the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground, Zhu Youde was puzzled.
"Why not?"
"I changed the morning date to morning time, because I am considerate of you! As the saying goes, the day's plan lies in the morning. Only when you sleep well can you better serve the people of Daliang!"
"Zhang Shoufu, what do you think?"
Zhu Youde looked at Zhang Yuanhai, the chief assistant, who was standing at the front of the hundred officials, and asked by name.
Zhang Yuanhai looked distressed at first and made an impassioned speech.
"Your Majesty's actions are against the laws of our ancestors."
Then he changed the topic and said loudly: "But your Majesty's actions are out of love and care for our ministers. Your Majesty, you are wise!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
After Zhang Shoufu spoke, more than two-thirds of the courtiers in the court followed him and knelt down to agree.
Zhu Youde nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay! I can use my heart, it's settled!"
But then, Zhu Youde, who was sitting high on the throne, looked at the gray-haired Zhang Shoufu below and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
You can all agree with Zhang Shoufu on this kind of slander.
Zhang Shoufu’s prestige...
High!
He is so tall that he might change his surname to Zhang one day!
The few remaining loyal ministers and good generals below did not dare to contradict the emperor anymore.
But they all glared at Zhang Shoufu and the members of Zhang's party, and would have wanted to fight had it not been for them in the court.
Next, formal discussions.
Zhang Shoufu, as the head of the hundred officials, was the first to step forward and say: "There is a famine in Fuzhou, so I am writing to request for allocation of grain. However, the treasury is empty and there is no money for disaster relief. I ask your Majesty to make a decision!"
This is Zhang Yuanhai's usual tactic to deal with the little emperor.
There were times before when the little emperor wanted to deal with political affairs on a whim.
But as soon as the little emperor mentioned that most of the treasury had been misappropriated, the little emperor immediately didn't want to hear it, and turned around and continued to put the country's peace of mind under his control, Zhang Yuanhai.
But today.
Zhang Yuanhai found that things seemed to be out of control.
Just listen to Zhu Youde speak slowly.
"I remember that this month is the time when the market for Tianguang silk, our specialty in Daliang, opens for bidding for the Three Kingdoms. The Zhou family, the imperial merchant responsible for centralized silk sales, can offset half of the imperial court's annual income just by paying the commercial tax this month!"
"So why, there is no money for disaster relief?"
The emperor questioned the officials.
Although Zhang Yuanhai was puzzled that the little emperor suddenly took charge of things, he still explained respectfully.
"Your Majesty, Tianguang silk production will be doubled this year. Imperial merchants from the three countries gathered in Jinling to jointly put pressure on the Zhou family and demand that the price of Tianguang silk be reduced by at least 50%!"
"They threatened that if they didn't comply, all the silk in Daliang would rot in the warehouse!"
After Zhu Youde listened, it took him a while to react, and he immediately laughed out loud at what the Three Kingdoms did.
On my territory, threatening my people?
This is outrageous!
"Come here! Arrest all the royal merchants of the Three Kingdoms and kill them!"
