Zhu Houzhao never expected that his mother would not only give people to Xu Xun and Xu Liang, but also take them with him. Although he immediately found various reasons to refute, even his father, Emperor Hongzhi,
He was used as a shield, but Queen Zhang had no intention of relenting at all. Instead, she kicked Xu Xun out first, and then her face became dark.
"If your father hadn't been thinking about letting you take charge of your own affairs as soon as possible, how could he have told the ministers on his deathbed not to wait for the three years of filial piety, but to immediately choose a lady for you and then get married? Besides, she is just a palace maid who guides people.
What your father also did back then was to let you know how to be humane first. After you are crowned queen and concubine, you will be sent away if you don't like it. This has always been the rule."
Zhu Houzhao was choked speechless by what Empress Dowager Zhang said. But he was such a picky person. When Li Rong took him to see hundreds of beauties they carefully selected, he didn't like any of them.
Yes, now Empress Dowager Zhang actually said it was just a lesson and then sent her away. No matter what he was thinking, he felt uncomfortable and suddenly shouted angrily: "In short, I don't want those vulgar fans, looking at
I feel unhappy!"
Seeing Zhu Houzhao abandoning him, he immediately waved his hands and walked out the door. Immediately afterwards, Liu Jin's call came from outside, and Xu Xun's persuasion made Empress Dowager Zhang frown into a big pimple.
She gave it to Xu Xun, but he was obviously not interested, and she wanted to send a palace maid to Zhu Houzhao. Her son also disagreed. How could these two people be so similar? The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
Finally, he could no longer hold his breath and simply stood up. At this moment, the door was pushed open, and it was Zhu Houzhao who walked in quietly, followed by Liu Jin.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is just thin-skinned for a moment." Liu Jin explained while laughing, while secretly glancing at Zhu Houzhao's face and saying with a smile on his face, "However, Your Majesty is the same as the late Emperor, and he can't stand those who only know how to wink.
The vulgar powder…···”
Zhu Houzhao saw that Queen Mother Zhang's expression was gloomy and uncertain. He thought about Liu Jin's persuasion and reminder just now. He took two steps forward and begged with saliva on his face: "I don't want my mother to take back her life... otherwise,
There are so many people around the mother, so I want you to choose one by yourself?" He had just been given a good talk by Liu Jin outside, and then he remembered that he could justifiably ask people to come to his side. When he said it at this time, he couldn't help but be a little jealous.
.
However, since Empress Dowager Zhang became suspicious, she couldn't help but feel that Zhu Houzhao's U-turn was really disturbing, so she simply said calmly: "Since you don't want to, let's put this matter aside for now.
I'm tired too, let's go back to the palace!"
Empress Dowager Zhang seemed to be very enthusiastic just now, but now her interest was waning. Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be shocked, while Liu Jin secretly stamped his feet anxiously. Xu Xun, who didn't follow him outside the door, couldn't care less about the little emperor.
He urgently thought about how he could escape this obstacle. It was not until Empress Dowager Zhang left the house immediately that he realized what he was doing. When he looked up, he found that the Lord of the Sixth Palace had a strange look in his eyes. But before he could explain anything, Zhang
The Queen Mother hurried forward and went straight downstairs, leaving even Zhu Houzhao behind and ignored her.
"This is good, the queen is angry!" Zhu Houzhao punched the wall in annoyance, and then glared at Xu Xun and said, "You are usually such a smart person, but you didn't remind me just now! If I had thought of it earlier.
The method Liu Jin mentioned, doesn’t this turn a bad thing into a good thing? Oh, how long will it take to miss this village? When will that shop be there!”
"This matter is about my life. I was confused at that time. How can I expect so much? Besides, the emperor can turn good things into bad things. What can I do?"
Seeing Xu Xun's rare distressed look, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help laughing, and then patted Xu Xun's shoulder considerately: "It's okay, it's okay. My mother has put aside my affairs for the time being. There is no reason to keep staring at you.
After all, you are a foreign minister, and the queen mother lives deep in the palace, out of reach. Alas, really, the good mother queen actually came up with such an idea, it is really a headache..."
On this trip, Xu Xun did not return home until the evening. His face was not good-looking, and he bumped into Xu Liang at the gate. Although Xu Xun had something on his mind, Xu Xun was confused when he saw Xu Liang.
Holding his arm, the surprise was so great that he immediately forgot about everything else. He turned his horse forward and asked eagerly: "Dad, you were fine when you went out this morning. What's wrong with your arm?"...
Damn it, why is daddy like this?
"Don't mention it. Not to mention the hero's bravery. When I was competing with Uncle Jingyang for a stone lock, one of my horses stumbled and twisted his arm." Seeing Xu Xun's sullen expression, Xu Liang quickly explained, "Uncle Jingyang was originally going to send me back.
, but it was because I was careless and I was too embarrassed to trouble others, so I stopped him dead or alive.
It's just a small matter, just apply some medicinal wine and rest for a few days, it's not a big deal, don't look so grim, people will think something big happened to your father and me if they see it."
"Dad! Are you still afraid that I'll knock on your door and cause trouble for Shenying?"
Xu Xun was angry and funny, but Xu Liang rushed to say what he should say. He could only watch Xu Liang control the reins with one hand and enter the door first. When the horse reached the second door, he jumped off the horse without saying a word,
He went to the side of Xu Liang's horse to help him, and saw that his father just threw away his hand and jumped off neatly. He was even braver than a young man like him. He couldn't help but shake his head, and could only helplessly walk in with his supported arm, all the way.
Walking all the way, he said: "Dad, you are already at this age. It is better for you to touch less things like stone locks that young people play with. After twisting your arm, it is still okay, but if you accidentally smash it,
That wouldn't be fun. Even if you don't hit anyone...it won't be good if you hit some flowers and plants."
When Xu Liang heard the last sentence, he saw that Xu Xun had a joking look on his face, and he choked and coughed several times. When he returned to the house, he saw that Xu Xun asked for hot water and asked for medicinal wine and cotton cloth.
There was a lot of excitement in the room, and he had to act like a father and suppress his overly filial son. He also rejected Zhu Ying's suggestion to ask for a doctor, and in the end he simply shocked all the girls.
Go down.
"You are the only one who knows how to do things, and now the whole house is alarmed!"
"Dad, if you go back home with your arms hanging, the whole capital will know, let alone the whole house?" Xu Xun smiled and pushed back. Seeing that Xu Liang was a little embarrassed, he sat down opposite, and then
He said with a half-smile, "Now, Dad, you are a favorite in the eyes of others. I don't know how many people want to come to ask for help because of this injury. This proposal of marriage is even more natural. Alas, throughout the ages, I have almost never given you anything."
The stranger who comes to propose marriage to his son is very serious."
Xu Liang suddenly looked unnatural: "Why bother with those people!"
"Dad, ever since the news of my having a first wife came out, more people have proposed marriage to you than me... If you don't have an explanation, those civil servants these days are the best at finding fault with each other.
The charge of unfilial piety has been suppressed, but I can't bear to walk around." Seeing Xu Liang suddenly fell silent, Xu Xun sighed and said, "If it's just these troubles, forget it, but the Queen Mother even mentioned it today.
, I want to send two people down from the palace, one for each of us."
Xu Liang thought Xu Xun was joking at first, but when he saw that his son had no intention of joking at all, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter and took a breath. Even though there was already a housewife in the family, a woman from the palace had
It’s imaginable how troublesome it will be, not to mention that the two of us are single, so if someone gets their brains tricked...
"Father, I still have Yue'er after all. Although this matter is tricky, I already have some ideas. It's not too difficult to make plans to get the Queen Mother to take back her life. But on your end, I, as a son, can't do anything for you."
Taking advantage of Empress Dowager Zhang's whim today, Xu Xun said sincerely, "After all, you are not even fifty yet."
Xu Liang was silent for a long time before sighing: "Since you have an idea about Yue'er, you should settle it as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. When your marriage is settled, we will seek a title for your mother and go back to Jinling.
Move her remains to the capital. After all, the ancestral graves of Xing'anbo's family have always been in Gyeonggi. She has never enjoyed blessings in her life, and she never expected that I would be here today. She never enjoyed my blessings during her lifetime, and now she can no longer enjoy them.
I have wronged her. Moreover, Yue'er must return to the Shen family and remarry."
"Then I'll listen to dad."
Xu Xun nodded and did not try to persuade him any more. He put the medicine, wine, cotton cloth and other things back into the medicine box, and then he walked to the door with the box in his arms. When he opened the door, a gust of wind hit the shop with raindrops.
, at this time, he realized that the already dark sky was completely dark. As he was closing the door in a hurry, Xu Liang appeared behind him...
"Fortunately, there was such a rain, otherwise people would have been nagging us for a long time about killing people in the Autumn Jue today! Although it is not guaranteed that there will be no rain on the 13th and a dry winter, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and the slightest omen will be exaggerated.
A hundred times. By the way, Shenying told me something today, saying that the Tailing Xuan Palace will be completed in one month, but during the period, spring water was dug in the Jinjing. This matter was concealed by Li Xing, the eunuch who supervised the work.
After that, Jingyang Bo Shenying was not related to Yang Ziqi, the head of the Civil Affairs Examination Department who had gone to Tailing before. Yang Ziqi returned to Beijing yesterday and said he wanted to report the matter. He refused to listen no matter how hard he tried to persuade others. I guess this
If things can't be kept under control, you don't know when things will get louder."
The Xuan Palace has almost been repaired, and this matter has only been exposed. If we really want to investigate, the mausoleum and so on will have to be rebuilt. In this way, the personnel who selected the site and supervised the construction in front of us will be small, and the huge expenditure will be huge. Because of Dang,
Xu Xun frowned slightly and asked, "What does Shenying mean?"
"Li Xing is the person recommended by Liu Jin. Shenying and Liu Jin also have some contacts. I know that Yang Ziqi is probably like a meat bun who beats a dog and never comes back. So please do me a favor. In case he really yells out,
At least save his life. Shenying also said that this Yang Ziqi is a famous upright and outspoken person among the six tribes, and is as famous as Li Mengyang."
"Oh?" Another firecracker that explodes at a moment's notice?
Xu Xun thought that since Yang Ziqi was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, he might be useful. He pondered for a moment and nodded: "Well, when dad sees Shenying, you might as well tell him so that he doesn't have to worry. I should do this."
Already."
However, before he can meddle in other people's business, he must first clean up his own troubles!
