Comprehensive film and television: Queen Queen uses her beauty to commit crimes

On the second day, the empress went to court dressed in an ordinary imperial dragon robe.

All the civil and military officials in the court gathered their strength and recited the auspicious words they had been preparing for a month during the morning court session.

The empress accepted it all. Unlike her usual serious appearance, the corners of her mouth turned up, showing that she was in a good mood.

By the time the plan for successful production came around, all the things that had previously required waiting had already borne fruit.

So, on this day, a very special imperial edict appeared to the court and even to the Sheng family itself.

That is, the empress allowed Sheng Minglan to be named Prince of Qin and to build a new prince's palace.

Who is this Sheng Minglan?

Before the adults could think of anything or ask any questions, Sheng Changtong, known as 'Little Master Sheng', stepped out from the crowd, knelt on the ground, and calmly accepted the imperial edict in a voice they had never heard before.

Ah? ? ?

In other words, this Sheng Changtong is actually a woman? !

"This is a crime of deceiving the emperor..."

Some ministers swallowed their words back as soon as they came to their lips.

Deceiving the king.

Did she deceive the king?

Doesn’t the ‘Jun’ above know the identity of Lord Xiao Sheng?

In addition, complex emotions filled everyone's hearts, and what came to everyone's mind was the palace examination that took place three years ago during the reign of Emperor Renzong.

The number one scholar who made all the young men in Beijing lose face was actually a woman!

Back then, the Sheng family was not like it is now or during the reign of the previous emperor. As royal relatives, they could have some influence just by waving their hands or spitting.

When Emperor Renzong was in power, Sheng Hong would not have had the power to commit fraud in the palace examination.

That is to say...

The men of the Sheng family, such as Sheng Hong, who was promoted to the second rank and held the highest position in the country, or Sheng Changbai and Sheng Changfeng, who were the second place in the imperial examination or the short-lived one, are either upright and honest, or good at manipulating others and scheming for personal gain.

The daughter of the Sheng family can be a queen, a role model for women all over the world, an empress, appointed by heaven to lead the Song Dynasty. At the same time, she can also be the top scholar, hold an important position in the court, and be a role model for all students.

Feng Shui, Feng Shui, what happened to the promise of one cycle after another?

Some careful people noticed that Sheng Changtong... no, Sheng Molan's classmates, such as Duke Yingguo's grandsons Zhang Youqian and Zhang Youcheng, and even Ge Cheng'an, the third son of Minister Ge who is now an official in the Hanlin Academy, all opened their eyes wide and were so stunned that they could not utter a word during the entire court meeting.

Even a gentleman would hide something?

And... in this way, Lord Xiao Sheng has not mentioned a word about getting married in the past two years, and he did not find a woman to start a family immediately when he was forced to marry by the Empress Dowager. This can finally make sense.

There was an empress in the court, and now there is a female princess, which is not a strange thing at all.

How to refute and where to refute?

Besides, even if it is possible to refute it, is there any need to touch the dragon scales of the empress who is blessed by heaven?

……

The government affairs handled by the emperors of the Song Dynasty were far less than those of the Ming Dynasty, let alone those during the reigns of Kangxi and Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, since Molan ascended the throne, he has been secretly eroding the power in the hands of court officials and gradually perfecting the emperor's centralized power.

History has proven that in a large organization, only one person is needed to have absolute say and control.

The era of scholar-officials is over.

Coincidentally, Yao Yiyi also thought that Molan had suddenly realized the importance of centralization through her few "unintentional words".

I secretly sighed in my heart that although we are all born as human beings, the gap between us is so huge. At the same time, I feel more and more at ease about the current situation of the dynasty.

History is the best verification.

A certain advanced beacon of separation of powers and state federal system has collapsed in just a hundred years.

Moreover, the emperors with centralized power have enough say in major decisions. If unrest occurs hundreds of years after their death, there is no need to worry about Qin Hui and his ilk...

However, it would be best to achieve true national and ethnic unification.

Nowadays, most people still believe that those who are not from the Central Plains are aliens. Through some tests, Yao Yiyi always felt that Molan was different. Her thinking pattern was far beyond that of ordinary people of this era.

At times like this, Yao Yiyi would start to wonder for no reason: in this age where spirits are allowed to emerge, could it be that there really are people who are commanded by heaven?

*

The children had not had any illness in the past six months, and the empress was personally in charge of their food, clothing, housing and transportation. Although many of the child-rearing methods made the imperial doctors shudder and almost want to die, seeing the royal heirs' health improve day by day, from being very small and weak to being even stronger than other children of the same age, the imperial doctors all regretted their ignorance.

After the birthday banquet, the naming of the royal heirs has been the topic of greatest concern to civil officials in recent days.

The empress was happy to accept the names submitted by her ministers.

The six sons were named,

Zhao Xu, Zhao Hao, Zhao Yan, Zhao Yu, Zhao Song, and Zhao Qi.

The eldest daughter's name was chosen by the empress herself.

His surname is Sheng and his given name is Chen.

The character "Bao" is used to name the next generation of the Sheng family.

The empress, the princess, Sheng's surname and the formal order of names, the single word "Chen", makes those who are interested unable to sleep all night.

But the Forbidden City seemed to be invulnerable and protected by a golden bell. Even if an insider was planted to pass on information, he could not enter any important places and find out any useful information.

In addition, the empress has kept her mother Lin in the palace for a whole year.

And now, it has been placed in the Cining Palace.

In the harem, Cining Palace and Ciming Palace were palaces built to provide residences for the empress dowager.

The imprisoned Empress Dowager still lives in Ciming Palace, and Cining Palace...

This made everyone feel a little scared, and also made some nobles who were absolutely loyal to the Zhao bloodline somewhat dissatisfied.

However, the Empress only raised her eyebrows and said as if asking about the weather, "Oh? What's wrong?"

"However, this is not a big deal. We can discuss it after today's military exercise."

The empress did not refuse sternly, which made most of the royal party feel more comforted.

The Empress' move was probably just to avoid the recurrence of Princess Taiping's case. She gave her daughter the surname "Sheng" so that she would not have the opportunity to get involved in power early and could be a princess at ease...

As for sons, they will grow up.

With six legitimate sons and such a rich battle, none of the veterans of the three dynasties present felt uneasy.

However, among the "royalists", no one cared except the Duke of England. Why did the empress, who was always decisive, have to discuss the matter after the "military exercise"?

The Duke of England had long been keenly aware of the reduction of his power, and that the special department jointly established by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry seemed to have been secretly creating and rehearsing something during the two years since the Empress ascended the throne...

The secret of the past two years will be revealed to the public today, but will this be a murderous aura that will deter them from going any further...?

But a moment later, the Duke of England knew the answer.

The lingering roar still surrounded my ears, and in front of me was burning dim flames and billowing smoke.

What is this thing that seems like a thunderous punishment from heaven?

gunpowder?

Could something used to set off firecrackers and make fireworks have such destructive power?

The Duke of England knew that as long as he had this magical weapon in his hands, even if there was another coup, what would it matter? What mortal body could do to resist the punishment of heaven?

The military department in charge of firearms is in the hands of Sheng Tang, and the soldiers among them are his life-and-death friends who accompanied Sheng Tang in fighting a bloody battle on the frontier ten years ago.

With a sharp weapon in hand, even a veteran in the conventional sense can kill people indiscriminately.

Whether it is iteration or the loss of morale, these are issues that we will have to consider at least fifty years later.

Fifty years. How many emperors can have fifty years?

And fifty years later, after witnessing that the empress has the final say, how many people, how many people supported by the empress herself, will overthrow her and do such treacherous and shameful things that will be criticized by thousands of scholars and common people?

"Some people, without realizing it, become emperors with great power, the true emperor."

The Duke of England had never thought that the empress would have such glory after ascending the throne, nor had he ever thought that the biggest obstacle to the stability of the country would be people like himself who claimed to be "royalists" and "loyal to the emperor."

"So, is it time for me to retire and return home?"

Otherwise, do you want to continue staying in the capital and serve as a role model for those villains who cannot see the situation clearly?

A military exercise made the British public see and understand a lot.

The empress.

It is rare to see such a man in history. He is even more powerful and brave than the Emperor Wu of that time.

Her enormous ambition probably won't be limited to playing with power.

Her gaze must have been on the vast land, even beyond the border, or on the other side of the strait.

……

Firearms were developed.

As the person who made it all happen, Yao Yiyi seemed very excited watching the military exercise.

My lords, times have changed.

Now is the era where the truth is determined by the tone of voice!

She wished she could stand in front of the stage and shout this to everyone.

Wearing a female dragon robe, a Liang crown, and touching the red agate around her neck, Yao Yiyi felt that if she told all this to herself when she first traveled through time, she would probably think it was a foolish dream.

At that time, she never dared to imagine that she could use her half-baked modern knowledge to become a science and engineering student in ancient times.

At this time, Yao Yiyi could understand the pursuit and fanatical devotion of her friend who had once drifted away from her.

What emerges from this explosion is the beauty of violence and the art of power!

In this way, the country can be governed and the people can be safe... No, the Song Dynasty, now in the West it should be around 1000 AD...

In this day and age, as long as she can build a ship, she can sail to the West and... conquer the world!

The name of Qin Wang Sheng Minglan will resound throughout the world.

And the old scholars in the Hanlin Academy who recorded history had to write a thick historical record for her personally.

It's burning up!

She also wants to become one of the key test points in history books that needs to be repeatedly marked with highlighters when technology develops in the future and the ancient dynasties eventually become dust.

If she had to rely on herself alone, Yao Yiyi really felt that her intelligence and abilities were limited.

But she has Sister Molan!

She is not as good as Sister Molan in terms of literary and military strategies, but as long as she can successfully express the ideas in her mind through ancient PPT in the form of text and pictures, coupled with Brother Shengtang's mighty martial arts, and combined with these skilled craftsmen who carry the Nine Clans around their waists to work, why should she worry about not being able to turn her ideals into reality?

You are the only one who would lead the Eight-Nation Alliance to invade China, right?

Wash your necks and wait!

I, the great Song Dynasty and the mighty Empress, will soon go to warm up the wine and kill you!

While Yao Yiyi was immersed in the grand blueprint of conquering the world in her mind, the military exercise had ended, the empress returned to the palace and summoned all the ministers.

First, the military generals who had just participated in the military exercise were praised and rewarded, and then the future development direction was clarified.

Finally, she asked, "What did you want to say just now?"

The minister who had something to say before knelt down and kowtowed, and answered very sincerely, "I seem to have caught a cold today, and I feel dizzy and don't know what to say."

Similarly, the Empress looked worried.

“This is not good. Although the cold is minor, if you are not careful, you might lose your life.

My dear, the Song Dynasty cannot live without you, but you must take care of your health.

Next time if you get sick, just ask for leave. Am I that kind of cruel person?"

Seeing that the empress had no intention of pursuing the matter, the minister rolled down the slope and said hurriedly, "Yes, yes, Your Majesty is merciful, and I will obey Your Majesty's orders."

The Duke of England witnessed all this without saying a word or making any statement.

However, two days later, he submitted his resignation letter for the first time.

Of course the Empress vetoed it.

Just like one has to refuse three times to ascend the throne, the emperor would naturally try to retain important officials if they wanted to retire, so as to demonstrate her love for talent.

It was a very formal process. Although the Empress herself did not like this extremely inefficient formalism, the Duke of England had made great contributions after all, so she did not want him to misunderstand her.

New ideas will gradually emerge, but we must also take into account the stubbornness of old antiques that cannot keep up with the development of the times.

……

Thus, without any dispute, Lin Qinshuang was enthroned as the empress dowager on an auspicious day one month later.

Sheng Hong immediately requested to go to the palace to meet and congratulate the Queen Mother.

Although he didn't understand why his daughter was so determined to do so, the Sheng family had produced an empress and a prince, and now a empress dowager. He no longer dared to think boldly about what would happen to the Sheng family next.

He worked so hard to gain personal advancement, not only because of his innate desire for power, but also to bring honor to his family.

Are you bringing honor to your family now?

It is possible that the family tree will be opened from him in the future!

Sheng Hong was not in a hurry at all.

After his death, his daughter, or his granddaughter who has more stable power, will definitely reorganize the Taimiao and posthumously confer the title of emperor on him.

what!

He is in no hurry, not at all.

We experience ups and downs throughout our lives, all for the sake of reputation during our lifetime and after our death.

Now, his posthumous reputation has found a place that is more noble than being enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. So now he should manage his reputation well, manage his family well, look forward to his children and grandchildren, and wait to return home to enjoy his old age after retirement.

At the age of 40, I can already imagine a life of leisure at home...

His daughter is capable and filial, worthy of being his and Shuang'er's child...

With such an excited mood, Sheng Hong politely bowed to Lin Qinshuang who was sitting at the top in front of the palace maids and eunuchs and said,

"Your humble servant pays respect to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and happiness."

Lin Qinshuang, who was sitting at the top, looked at Sheng Hong, who was kneeling on the ground and never looked up without her permission. She pursed her lips, and the surging emotions in her chest made it impossible for her to organize her emotions and speak at the first moment.
