In his previous life, the late emperor had never held a birthday banquet for Empress Yixiu, but he did hold a birthday banquet for his favorite concubine, Guiren Wan.

The new emperor is not so stupid. Even though he is busy with court affairs, he still remembers to ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare the Qianqiu Banquet in advance.

After Tana became the queen, she was not much busier than when she was a concubine in the palace.

Recently, Tana was counting the palace maids in the Household Department and the palace, and Tana had some plans in mind.

The emperor also stated that he would no longer take concubines into the palace, and if there was to be a beauty contest, it would be among the clan members.

Since there are only a few masters in the palace, there is no need for so many palace servants.

After the new emperor ascends the throne, he will release a group of people. What Tana has been looking at the most recently is the list of names.

Meng Yi's main job now is the imperial guard, and his wedding date with Gesanhua is scheduled for May next year.

Meng Yi also took over the Niangan Division and incorporated the elites of Khorchin into the Division.

The Flying Guillotine was taken over by the emperor, and the useless Xia Ke has gone to accompany the late emperor.

That day, Zhou Zhongxin came to Kunning Palace to ask for instructions.

Tana frowned as she looked at the quota of new eunuchs to enter the palace next year handed over by Zhou Zhongxin.

Our bodies and hair are given by our parents, and eunuchs with disabilities are tantamount to destroying human ethics.

Tana said directly: "There are not many palace masters now, so the young eunuch will not be selected next year."

Zhou Zhongxin was in a dilemma. Now the palace was full of old people, and the number of people he brought in was very small, making many things difficult to carry out.

Seeing Zhou Zhongxin's expression, Tana understood his difficulty and said directly: "You don't have to worry. As long as you follow the palace rules, if others don't obey you, they can directly report to the Ministry of Punishment. How you managed the household in the mansion before, now you should manage the affairs of the palace in the same way."

Zhou Zhongxin didn't expect Tana to trust him so much, and he immediately said, "I will follow the Queen's instructions and act cautiously in the future."

On this day, ministers of the previous dynasty submitted a memorial stating that there was no concubine in the harem and requested the emperor to consider holding a selection for royal heirs as soon as possible.

The emperor said with a smile: "It has only been a few months since the death of the previous emperor. How can you, an unfilial and immoral person, be qualified to be an official?"

Afterwards, the emperor ordered: "Come here, remove this man from his post and investigate him. If evidence of his guilt is found, he will be severely punished."

The minister begged for mercy, and several other ministers seconded the motion.

The emperor smiled even more deeply and ordered Zhou Zhongxin, "Go and bring the list of palace maids to be expelled from the palace that the queen has drawn up."

After the list was brought, the emperor opened it and pointed the three palace maids to the three ministers respectively.

After pointing out the palace maids, the emperor said, "These palace maids used to serve their masters, and they know the rules and etiquette. I will point out the palace maids on this list to you one by one, and you must treat them well."

There was no grand court meeting on this day, and those who attended the court were officials of the second rank and above in the capital.

Before attending court, officials came alone, but after leaving court, each of them went home with a palace maid by his side.

The emperor himself said that these palace maids knew the rules and etiquette, and the officials could only keep them well.

As for returning home and being roared at by the tigress, that was what the emperor wanted to see.

The emperor didn't care if officials wanted to have three wives and four concubines.

Instead, the officials started to control the emperor's harem. If the emperor was unhappy, no one would be happy either.

Tana looked at the emperor with great joy as he spoke, and she almost wanted to hold her forehead with her hand.

The emperor used to do whatever he wanted, and he still does so now that he is the emperor.

However, this matter was beneficial to Tana, so she would not refute anything. She only thought about how to deal with the aftermath and not let the ministers' harems become too chaotic.

For the next plan, the women in the ministers’ backyards are all helpful and need to be won over.
