He Qingfeng and Zhou Chaozong's worries were not unreasonable. Lao Zhu also regretted it a little. What if someone really got pregnant?
Then come on, Your Majesty, do you remember Xia Yuhe on the edge of the West Lake?
I shudder just thinking about it.
Even if no one is pregnant, it can still make a fuss. Anyway, since Lao Zhu is gone, no one knows what will happen next.
If a fake prince comes out, then he can rebel.
"Bring back all the women I have been blessed with,"
Take it with you..."
"yes!"
Wang Zhonghou nodded like a tool and went to do the work immediately.
He Qingfeng and Zhou Chaozong nodded with satisfaction, looking very pleased when the emperor realized his mistake.
It's not easy.
You must be aware of the seriousness of this matter. The pleasure is temporary, but the trouble is lifelong.
Looking at the two ministers, Zhu Youde also felt embarrassed, but it was just a temporary feeling.
Just think about it, he is the emperor, what's wrong, even if the drama of returning the pearl to the emperor is really going to be staged, it will be more than ten years later.
If anyone dares to go to the capital to look for him, he will be killed directly.
Real men have to be so cruel!
"This matter is kept secret!"
He Qingfeng and Zhou Chaozong complained in their hearts, what else could they do if they didn't keep it secret? Should they tell it everywhere?
You, the emperor, are indiscreet.
But it is understandable that the emperor was under great pressure, the Southeast was not at peace, and he was at war with the Southern Tang Dynasty. There was also a restless East Vietnam, and he spent a lot of money. The situation in the Southeast had just improved.
"How about we let the ladies from the capital go south?"
"I think it's okay, Your Majesty... Of course the Queen can't move, but let Concubine Tang wait to go south..."
"..."
You don't have to do this.
Don’t you understand the joy of a man on a business trip? When the harem concubines come, can they still have fun with each other in a friendly manner?
Zhou Chaozong thought for a while and said seriously: "Why don't your majesty let the eldest princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty accompany the king? It can also appease the panic of the Southern Tang court."
He Qingfeng strongly suggested: "I think it is possible. Once the eldest princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty comes, the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty will feel at ease, and the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty will also feel at ease. Maybe there will be other benefits."
The two of them looked at Zhu Youde at the same time. After all, it was Zhu Youde who had the final say whether the person could come over or not.
"Now, since you all think it's good for the eldest princess to go south, then that's what you'll do."
Zhu Youde understood now that he could not refuse. He Qingfeng and Zhou Chaozong both analyzed it clearly for him.
The political significance of the eldest princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty going south is relatively large. With this significance, she cannot play casually and must be well pampered.
Basically, my lower body belongs to Xiao Jing.
Zhu Youde didn't really like women participating in politics, but it was obvious that He Qingfeng and Zhou Chaozong didn't care at all about using the eldest princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty to appease the Southern Tang court.
This eldest princess is just a tool in their eyes. When Lao Zhu is used up, Xiao Jing's life and death is not worthy of attention at all!
Maybe one day they will desperately hope that this high-status princess will die.
Zhu Youde thought for a moment: "Let's make Xiao Jing the imperial concubine."
The two ministers cupped their hands and looked unconcerned.
This is Lao Zhu's compensation to Xiao Jing, but obviously in the eyes of these two people, it is your own business that has nothing to do with us.
These civil servants are now busy thinking about big things like destroying East Vietnam. Compared with the destruction of the country, the emperor's crotch is not important.
However, He Qingfeng still reminded him: "His Majesty's eldest son cannot be the son of Xiao Jing."
Do you care about heaven and earth, or do you care about me having children?
What the hell!
The key is that Zhou Chaozong still nodded and seemed to think it made sense.
Lao Zhu was very helpless. He didn't even have a son yet. These people were already thinking about the future of the prince.
He is still young and full of motivation, so why can't he have children?
But think about it, besides being helpless, I am still helpless!
In the eyes of civil servants, it is only right that their children should be born by the queen, or they should be born by Deng Yu.
Now it is obvious in the Liang Dynasty that all civil servants support the queen, but all the generals support Deng Yu.
As far as Lao Zhu knows, in the northern battlefield, Zhao Yong is now fully supporting Deng Yu, and does not care about Feng Bogong, a civil servant.
After Deng Yu arrived at the northern front line, he naturally took over the command and became a mountain top.
There will never be peace in his harem in the future. Luo Xian is the representative of the civil servants, and Deng Yu represents the military. If the prince were not the child of these two people, no one else would do it.
In comparison, Luo Xian's power is still weaker.
Zhou Chaozong and He Qingfeng are actually making arrangements now.
Lao Zhu could see it but would not say anything. There was nothing he could do about it.
He doesn't even have a child now. What the hell, he still has to decide who will be the prince in the end.
At this time, Chun Yumin, the envoy from East Vietnam, had already entered Guanyi. The number of people in the envoy team coming from East Vietnam this time was quite large.
Chun Yumin was in a bad mood after getting off the boat. Daliang was fighting in the south, but there was no sign of the war in Hangzhou. Hangzhou continued to be prosperous along the way.
The lives of ordinary people have not become worse because of the war. On the contrary, there are many smiles on the people's faces.
On his way here, he passed by the border between Dongyue and Daliang, and the Dongyue people in those places had already begun to flee.
Everyone was worried that Daliang's army would attack.
It's the same country, but the atmosphere is completely different.
The life of the people in Hangzhou has been much easier, because it is easy to make money. Lao Zhu was in Hangzhou, and it was announced that there would be tax exemptions and exemptions for setting up factories. Businessmen from the capital rushed south to buy land and open factories!
Land reforms were being carried out in the surrounding counties, and serfs were turned into masters. Those who did not want to farm could go work.
The merchants who came from the capital were so moved that they almost cried. The people here only earn three taels of silver a month!
Now in the capital, if you want to recruit workers for three taels of silver, and they can spit in your face, who are you looking down on?
It is impossible for a young lady in the capital who knows embroidery to work for you without sixty taels a month.
But the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou is the hometown of silk. There are a large number of embroiderers here, and they can be recruited with half the wages of the capital.
These embroiderers can be used to produce goods specially supplied to high-end brothels.
Local residents suddenly discovered that people were recruiting workers everywhere, and some well-known embroiderers became hot commodities.
This kind of situation was completely invisible to Dongyue. Chun Yumin was very upset. He thought that Daliang was also in chaos because of the quelling of the rebellion. This situation was very detrimental to their negotiations with Daliang!
Especially when he heard that Southern Tang and Daliang signed a non-aggression treaty.
If Daliang doesn't fight against Nan Tang, then who will fight next? Is there any need to say?
Could it be that Daliang's 600,000 troops in the south were just left alone?
