In the spring of the fourth year of Fengwu, the world was basically stable.

Her Majesty the Queen is pregnant, and her pregnancy is too uncomfortable. She cannot smell meat or eat fish.

The emperor's husband, Feng Yaoguang, was named the emperor's regent and assisted the queen in handling government affairs. The civil and military officials of the court must cooperate with each other and must not resist the decree.

At the same time, Yuan Ziying and Qi Fangfei assisted Feng Yaoguang.

But it was not safe for Feng Yaoguang to be assisted by a woman.

In order to avoid suspicion and show her loyalty to His Majesty, Feng Yaoguang moved government affairs to Chongming Palace every day. When Yan Donghuang was uncomfortable, she took personal care of her and ordered Yuan Ziying to develop some medicine that would not harm the body or affect the child. The medicine improves His Majesty’s symptoms.

Yuan Ziying originally wanted to say: "I'm not more interested in you than you are?"

But when I saw that Feng Yaoguang was so worried that she couldn't sleep or eat, she followed His Majesty to eat vegetarian food every day. She often squeezed her shoulders and rubbed her waist, taking good care of His Majesty.

Yuan Ziying thought he was a good man, and she couldn't bear it until a shadow formed in her eyes, so she decided not to fight him.

"I'm fine." Yan Donghuang clapped his hand, "Didn't the imperial doctor say that? Most people have some symptoms in the first three months, but some people have severe reactions and some have small reactions. After three months, they will gradually get better. "

Feng Yaoguang sat in front of her and held her hand tightly: "It is indeed hard to give birth to a child. We only need this one, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl..."

"This is not your decision." Yuan Ziying said leisurely, "Although it is hard, it is up to His Majesty to decide whether to have children or not, and how many to have. You can only obey."

Sometimes Feng Yaoguang really wanted to throw Yuan Ziying out, or find something to glue her mouth on.

This woman obviously looks cute, but her words are always so unpleasant.

Although what she said was the truth, she had to be tactful.

"Today's booklet has not been dealt with yet." Yan Donghuang raised his hand and took a booklet from the case, "Now that the world is stable, the court's first priority is people's livelihood. In addition, there are many merchants from the former Beiliang, Nanling and Qi countries. The merchants and merchants all want to occupy the land and become kings. It is the time to seize the land and compete for profits. Yaoguang, you will make a decree tomorrow and summon all the top family heads in the world to the capital. I have something for them to do. "

Collusion between officials and businessmen has been a common practice since ancient times.

This kind of culture cannot be completely eliminated even if the officials are severely punished, but there are always some conscientious businessmen who are willing to break the rule of "no business, no rape" and make a legitimate living on their own three-quarter acres of land.

Now that the world has been decided, even if the decree is promulgated, the situation will not be improved in a short period of time.

Therefore, Yan Donghuang plans to support some merchants and use them to compete with those profiteers who occupy the land and dominate one area, break the monopoly in various places, and gradually reduce the situation of government and businessmen colluding to oppress the people.

And she knew in her heart that this was a long process, so she could only do it patiently.

Feng Yaoguang nodded: "Yes."

When she was five months pregnant, Yan Donghuang's abdomen had swelled, and her initial uncomfortable symptoms were greatly relieved.

Yuan Ziying was specifically responsible for her dietary supplements, slowly making up for what she had lost in the first three months.

"But don't make it up too much. If the child grows well and is big, the mother will suffer during the birth." Yuan Ziying always warned her, her level of caution and caution was comparable to that of Feng Yaoguang, "Your Majesty has a distinguished status. , we must focus on protecting the dragon’s body.”

Feng Yaoguang couldn't agree more with this statement.

It was probably one of the few times the two of them agreed.

It is not difficult for Yan Donghuang to go to court with a full belly. After she became pregnant, she decided to have a major court meeting once every five days and a small court meeting once every three days. There was no need to go to court every day. There is no need for officials to get up at midnight.

Yan Donghuang feels that people tend to be irritable when they don't sleep well, and it is difficult to deal with complicated and trivial matters sincerely when they are irritable.

The king is like this, and the officials are like this.

And considering that a large number of officials in the court lived far away from the palace, and it took half an hour to ride a carriage, so after some thought, it was decided to change the meeting to start at chen o'clock and end at noon. During the rest of the time, all officials could directly report anything they had to do. Zhezi, or arrive at Chongming Palace to meet the saint.

Discuss matters in person and deal with them according to priority.

This rule was initially opposed by some.

They felt that the rules set by their ancestors were to make the king and officials diligent. Once a person becomes lazy, it will be difficult to be diligent again, but Yan Donghuang broke more than one convention.

Facts have proved that after doing this, the atmosphere in the court changed drastically, and all the officials were no longer angry when they went to court, but they were all in high spirits.

When discussing matters face to face with His Majesty, they did not even feel too frightened and depressed. Instead, they were able to be calm, maintain the humility and propriety of courtiers, and no longer worry about getting offended at every turn when doing things.

Because four years is enough time for them to understand that His Majesty is an emperor who can't touch the dirt in his eyes. She is strict and ruthless when it comes to government affairs and punishes corrupt officials ruthlessly. But most of the time she treats officials who work hard. Tolerant, she won't hold on to small flaws and mistakes.

Capable and loyal officials, regardless of origin, background, or age, will be promoted when they should be promoted, and there is not even a limit on the number of years they have been in the court.

Working with such a decisive but emotionally stable master is naturally relaxing for undistracted officials, and the efficiency of officials in various departments is significantly improved.

The hot summer is over.

In the blink of an eye, it was late autumn, and Her Majesty had a stomach attack.

The doctors of the Imperial Hospital were all standing guard outside the door, Yuan Ziying was standing guard in the inner hall, watching the midwives calmly deliver the baby for Her Majesty, and everything was properly prepared.

What if Her Majesty had a difficult delivery, what if there was a heavy bleeding, what if... all the what ifs were thought of, and they were prepared one by one.

Silver needles, ginseng pills to protect the heart, ginseng soup.

Feng Yaoguang was standing guard outside, anxious, and wanted to rush in to bear this torment for Her Majesty.
