I will never be Renzong

Chapter 91
In the Hall of Ciyuan, the few remaining concubines after the death of Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty, Zhao Heng, all came today. Naturally, the official family selected a queen from fifty beautiful women to take charge of the harem.

However, except for Yang who dared to make some suggestions, the other concubines were just accompanying him for a formality. Of course, the final decision-making power still rested with Liu E.

"These [-] beautiful women were selected from a hundred miles. Which one is not beautiful and beautiful, but Aijia heard that the government has rejected most of the beautiful women a few days ago. Is this inappropriate? !"

Liu E looked at Zhao Zhen and frowned and said.

"Back to the aunt! My son thinks that instead of letting most of the beautiful girls waste their time in this palace, it is better to directly express my heart. If I like it, I will keep it, and if I don't like it, I will betrothed to others early."

Zhao Zhen replied.

Yang said carefully: "Sister! An official's not lusting after women is a good quality of a king. If it is spread, the ministers and the people of the world will praise the official as a wise king!"

"Well! It's rare for a king to be able to restrain his selfish desires, but these fifty beautiful girls must have been selected with great difficulty. It is unreasonable for the officials to reject so many at once. A son of the official family, who reproduced the emperor's heirs, the heavy responsibility of prospering the Zhao family's royal family fell on the official's head. These beautiful girls, the Ai family and the concubines have all met, and they also have seven or eight plans in their hearts. If it is according to the official's intention, only seven or eight people will be left. After the Ai family and all the concubines have thought about it, they will release [-] people and keep [-] in the palace. , is it appropriate!"

Liu E looked at Zhao Zhen and asked.

"Leave thirty? Isn't it a bit too much? And I don't have time to take care of these thirty beautiful girls? I can't cultivate any feelings!"

Thirty people is a bit too much, not to mention that the draft is more than just this one. Although there are almost no large-scale drafts like Song Dynasty, there are small drafts every year. If this continues, Zhao Zhen's harem will eventually be overcrowded.

"Queen Mother, it seems that our official family is still a person who values ​​affection. In fact, the beautiful women who entered the palace have long been fond of the official family. Therefore, the official family does not need to cultivate good feelings with everyone, but only needs to cultivate good feelings with the queen. It's enough to have a good relationship, as for the rest of the concubines, they are all used to add members to the Zhao family."

Yang smiled.

"Yeah! That's the case. As an official, the personal relationship between children is a trivial matter. Producing heirs for the royal family is the top priority. To use a rough word, these fifty beautiful girls are like being selected from thousands of acres of fertile land. Like the best farmland, they are all waiting for a farmer to sow, but the farmer only cares for one or two acres and wastes other farmlands. How can this be allowed?"

Liu E obviously agrees with Yang's words, is there a relationship between a man and a woman?That's the story in the playbook. I think that when Zhao Heng saw her for the first time, he threw him down without saying a word. As for the relationship, it was slowly cultivated in the future. The official family is still too young. This idea is a bit naive. .

"My aunt's words are not unreasonable, but this kind of thing also needs to pay attention to eye relationship. If I really don't like it, I hope my aunt will not force it!"

Zhao Zhen said with a sneer, he understood what Liu E and the Yang family meant. To put it bluntly, he was the only son of the first emperor. If you need to talk about your relationship with the show girls, you can just spread the seeds.

"If the official family really doesn't like it, the Ai family will naturally not force it. Today, the Ai family and all the concubines are gathered here to help the official family select one of these fifty beautiful girls. When the empress comes out, these beautiful ladies have been in the palace for some time, I wonder if the officials have a favorite empress candidate in their minds?"

Liu E looked at Zhao Zhen and asked.

"Ma'am! My son thinks that Queen Xiang'er, the queen of Wang Mengzheng, a great businessman in central Sichuan, has a dignified appearance, virtuous and gentle, and my son has his own heart. He wants to make her his queen. I don't know if she thinks so?"

Zhao Zhen said expectantly.

As soon as Zhao Zhen's words fell, Liu E's face immediately turned down. It was obvious that the woman Zhao Zhen wanted was not what she had in mind.

"This Wang Xiang'er! The Ai family has seen it with all the concubines. It is true that she is outstanding in appearance, enchanting and charming, but she has never seen the dignified, virtuous and quiet appearance that the officials said. Such a woman is only suitable for courting courtiers. If she becomes a queen, she fears that there will be disasters in the harem in the future, so the Ai family and all the concubines decided to betroth her to Liu Congde, the son of the former Taiwei Liu Mei, the chief officer of the imperial city."

Liu E replied.

"what?"

Zhao Zhen looked at Liu E in disbelief. He knew that Wang Xiang'er was indeed betrothed to Liu Congde in history, so he procrastinated for a few days just to find a way to get Liu E to agree to make Wang Xiang'er his queen, but he didn't expect that Still a step late.

"The marriage edict was issued yesterday, and they will get married in three days. Don't worry about this female official, let's choose from the other beautiful girls!"

Liu E said without any doubt.

"I don't want to stand up for anyone, I just want to stand up for Wang Xiang'er, and I hope Da Niang Niang will do it!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly knelt down solemnly towards Liu E.

"It is no longer possible to remove the edict and change it again, so the Ai family advises the officials to forget about this Wang family! The queen needs to have the appearance of a mother to the world, not an overly coquettish woman like Wang, and the Ai family I heard that Wang had some frivolous behavior during the draft. The reason why she was selected was because she and the Ai family came from Shu together. Therefore, for the sake of leisure, the Ai family would never keep her in the palace! "

Liu E couldn't help but feel angry when she saw that Zhao Zhen paid such a grand tribute to her for a woman.

"Ma'am, I don't know, Xiang'er is actually me."

"What is it? If she dares to seduce the official family, then the Ai family will definitely give her three feet of white silk!"

Zhao Zhen just wanted to say that Wang Xiang'er was actually his, but was suddenly interrupted by Liu E, and he fell silent for a while.

It is true that he loves Wang Xianger, and he is sincere in wanting to make her queen, but judging by Liu E's posture, if he tells the relationship between the two, Wang Xianger will be lost because of it.

"This is the case, I have nothing to say, but except for Wang Xiang'er, I don't think anyone else can take the position of queen. Once I decide that the queen's position is not yet determined, I will make a decision in the next draft!"

Zhao Zhen said a little disheartened.

"No! A queen must be elected today!"

Liu E said angrily.

"Ma'am! My son has mixed feelings and is exhausted. Let's talk about the future!"

As he said that, Zhao Zhen took off the hat and put it on the ground, and then said a little disheartened: "You said that the aunt insisted on this, please depose me!"

"you"

Liu E suddenly stood up from the chair.

"My son retire!"

Zhao Zhen ignored Liu E, but walked out of the Ciyuan Hall in frustration.

Zhao Zhen ignored Liu E
