The first day of the lunar month should be peaceful.
Be beaming with joy.
This has been the rule of the Central Plains for many years.
The same is true for the Chen Hua family.
On the morning of the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, his wife, a distant relative of the Yingchuan Yang family, discovered that he and his pretty maid were making clouds and rain in the study. Women born in the Yingchuan Yang family would naturally not be jealous. For them, marriage
It's more like a transaction, and you are just a bargaining chip.
With the awareness of chips, naturally I am not interested in watching anything.
You have fun, but it's early morning!
“Not a good time in the morning!”
The women of the Yang family in Yingchuan had learned some common sense about health care, and gave a vague exhortation outside the study.
Then……
"roll!"
Chen Hua, who was enjoying himself, was interrupted by this and became furious.
Yang didn't get angry and bowed politely and left.
I've advised you, but if you don't listen, that's your business.
This is a girl from aristocratic family, her behavior is impeccable.
When they returned to their place, the maid brought from home sneered: "That bitch told people privately that if she could have a child, she would be able to overwhelm my wife. This person is really crazy."
"As long as I eat some food, I won't say such stupid things." Yang sat down with a calm expression, as if the person he had met with his maid in the study during the day was a stranger.
"My family values Chen Hua very much," the maid said.
"He has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child, and he was even favored by the Yang family of Yingchuan. This kind of pride is almost unmatched by anyone in Chang'an. It's normal to be a bit crazy."
Yang pointed outside, "Before I got married, Aye said that when the sky is yellow and it rains, madness will bring misfortune. My husband has been crazy since childhood. It would be best if he could restrain himself after getting married. But I have been married for more than half a year. Look at him.
Still arrogant."
When Chen Hua said those words, he consciously slapped the emperor in the face, so he drank at home yesterday and wrote a poem after drinking to mock the emperor's stupidity. He was so mad that he couldn't stop himself.
Winter winter winter!
The sound of footsteps came, with anger.
Yang's eyes were slightly cold and he sat upright.
An angry Chen Hua appeared outside the door, "I said you can't approach the study without my permission, didn't you hear?"
Yang said calmly: "It's too loud, that's not good!"
Chen Hua became angry and wanted to scold the Yang family, but thinking of the family behind the Yang family, he pointed at the maid and cursed: "Bitch, why don't you get me some tea?"
The maid is happy to go out.
Chen Hua came in and sat down, panting and looking around the room.
"My family has said that they will find a position for me after this time, at least to join the army."
Chen Hua raised his head, feeling a sense of superiority overlooking all living beings, "I am going out to serve as an official, and you can take good care of Ye Niang at home..."
"Yes!" Yang bowed slightly.
The couple sat opposite each other, unable to find anything to say.
This feels like treating each other as guests.
After the maid brought tea, Mrs. Yang said, "My husband is very talented, I admire you very much."
Yang's daughter also has to bow to me... Chen Hua took a sip of tea, and there was a sense of pride in his eyes.
"It's just that the emperor can start from a small border town and achieve an imperial career. Naturally he is not a dull person." Yang's warning was rather vague, "Husband, please don't underestimate him."
"If he was smart, he shouldn't have fallen out with the Guanzhong family. Those are the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. He is digging his own grave. I slapped him yesterday, so what can he do?"
Chen Hua smiled calmly, "There are so many people in Chang'an who are pointing fingers at the court and saying uglier things. How can he deal with these people? No, otherwise he will be criticized by thousands of people. Since he can't deal with those people, how can he?"
What to do with me? People in the world say what they want to do. If I say it, what can he do?"
He took a sip of tea and said confidently: "I have asked people to go outside the imperial city to find out the news. As soon as the emperor is disgraced today, I will go to my house to congratulate you. Then you will go too. Remember, you and I are husband and wife.
Women are just having fun..."
Giving the emperor a slap in the face and then going to the Yang family to congratulate him is actually asking for credit.
This person's thoughts are all devoted to utilitarianism... Yang sighed in his heart, "It's better to be cautious."
"A woman's opinion!" Chen Hua said coldly.
"Lang Jun!" At this time, he ordered his entourage who was waiting for news outside the imperial city to come.
"How?" Chen Hua's eyes burst out with brilliance. For him, marrying a daughter of the Yang family has many advantages, but there are also many disadvantages. For example, when the imperial examination is taken. After the Yang family's rival ascends the throne, who will be selected for the imperial examination?
It is unknown, but Yang's relatives will definitely be suppressed.
So Chen Hua wants to take another path, which is to recommend and conquer. But this requires using the Yang family's connections. His wife is only a distant relative of the Yang family. It depends on whether the Yang family is willing to use her connections to help him.
That's his ability.
That's why he would slap the emperor in the face.
The attendant said, "At the Great Court meeting, Censor Lanyun suggested that the slave system has been deep-rooted for many years... There are also people from the Tang Dynasty in the harem."
"Wonderful!" Chen Hua held up his hands and smiled.
He picked up the tea cup and glanced at his wife. There was a hint of reserve on her face.
"The emperor said that a group of maids and chamberlains in the palace will be released today, and from then on, the people in the palace will regain their freedom and become employed. From now on, there will be no more... slaves in the palace!"
Boom!
The tea cup fell from Chen Hua's hand and fell on the table.
The tea flows along the eucalyptus table to the left side.
Tick tock, tick tock...
Yang looked at him, a surge of pleasure surged in her heart, and she felt refreshed, "I have said that this country was created by the emperor alone, and there were many smart people among the opponents who fell along the way. But those
Where are the people? Either in the Beijing temple, or among the people building roads."
"Bitch!"
Chen Hua stood up abruptly, his face turned red, and he stumbled out.
The maid stood by the side and shook her head slightly.
Yang sat upright and said, "He thinks he is extremely talented, but in the eyes of the emperor, he is just like a clown."
The maid whispered: "Madam, be careful if you are overheard and get angry."
"So what if you're angry? It's better than losing your life in the end."
Yang said quietly: "What I am most curious about is that even the emperor and the head of state are extremely jealous of Li Xuan. He is a scholar, but he thinks he can slap Li Xuan in the face with some cleverness. Where does he get the confidence?
?”
…
Chun Yudian was reading the account books at home.
The foundation of the Chunyu family is the workshops, which provide tools to the Ministry of Industry and weapons to the Ministry of War every year.
Orders from the government are the most stable, and the profits are also the most lucrative. Over the past hundreds of years, the Chunyu family has made a lot of money based on this. Although they later encountered challenges from the Wang family, the basic market was still maintained.
"That's right." Chun Yudian put down the account book and said to the manager: "The relationship with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War must be maintained well. The benefits that should be given to those people... plus 20%."
"yes!"
The manager resigned.
Then the staff came.
"Today I wanted to go to the Imperial Court to see the excitement with my own eyes, but that scoundrel didn't invite me. How about that?" Chun Yudian asked with a smile.
"The palace is currently releasing the palace residents... The emperor has announced that from today onwards, everyone in the palace will be free."
…
Yang Xinxiang received the news earlier than Chunyudian.
"But Ji Zhi?" Yang Xinxiang asked.
The person who informed him was a dignitary attending the meeting. He sighed, "The emperor has been planning this for at least ten days, and every step has been thought through. If he could think of these methods in an instant, I would give up being an enemy of him from now on."
The thought..."
"Yes, that kind of quick wit is terrifying." Yang Xinxiang said quietly: "Yuan Day is also the first day of the first year of Yongde. That scoundrel is so high-spirited!"
…
The emperor and empress have returned to the palace.
At this moment, hundreds of chamberlains and maids who had signed up to leave the palace gathered together. When they saw the emperor coming, they all saluted.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Those eyes were filled with gratitude.
In the eyes of the emperors and nobles in the palace, they were like cows, horses, and mutt dogs. Their life and death, honor and disgrace depended on the nobles' thoughts.
As time goes by, they also regard themselves as cattle and horses, and as cud dogs.
Therefore, when Yi Niang asked those who wanted to leave the palace to sign up, everyone was shocked. When Yi Niang said that from today onwards, the people in the palace would be free, the palace exploded.
"It turns out that His Majesty treats us as human beings!"
At that moment, countless people burst into tears, and some even burst into tears.
When the emperor came, some people were still crying.
The emperor looked at the wailing people in silence, and those people choked with sobs and saluted.
"I have said that the people of the Tang Dynasty should not be slaves. I do not need to treat my people as cattle and horses to show my majesty. From now on, you and others are free."
The emperor nodded to the queen and left immediately.
The queen stepped forward and said, "Later, someone will give you a contract. Those who are willing to stay in the palace can choose by themselves. There are ten years, twenty years... that's one thing. The palace is not as good as the outer court. If anyone has ulterior motives,
, Your Majesty and I will not show mercy to those who should be dealt with."
"Long live your Majesty!"
The emperor was walking in the palace and felt very sad when he heard cheers coming from behind him.
He Lianyan was waiting for him in front.
"Your Majesty, Prince Xiang has arrived in Fengzhou."
"It just so happens that the old thief and the second thief are on the way." The emperor stopped, "Those people are making trouble at the court meeting. If I don't slap you back, they won't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
…
Fengzhou.
Fengzhou is not far from Chang'an.
After arriving here, people from various families came over after hearing the news, crying and laughing. The joy of waiting for the rest of their lives after the disaster made those people have a carnival in Fengzhou.
"drink wine!"
King Xiang raised his glass.
Several members of the clan were drinking with him in a restaurant, and all of them had glowing faces.
After three drinks, King Xiang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "That man has ascended the throne."
"yes!"
Several clan members exchanged glances, and one person said: "I heard that he still followed the old path of filial piety."
"It has nothing to do with you or me," another person said.
"That person will definitely retaliate." The man from before said: "Since he wants to inherit his father's will, he will naturally inherit those grudges. Be careful."
"What does this have to do with me?" King Xiang raised his glass.
Later, everyone parted ways drunkenly. After King Xiang returned to his residence, he called his entourage from Chang'an to greet him.
"Have they ever stared at our home in Chang'an?"
The attendant shook his head, "I didn't find it."
Prince Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "Have you ever erased those?"
"Three people were killed, but two of them were not found in the rush."
Prince Xiang's eyes were gloomy, "Find them and kill them!"
