Zhuo Qihua

After all the court meetings on this day were over, all the ministers hurried home except for the annual celebration of the Hubu Shangshu who was left behind.As soon as King Wu Shao came home, he shouted, "Madam! Madam!"

Princess Wu Shao appeared and hurriedly asked, "My lord, what's the matter? You're in a hurry."

King Wu Shao: "Check out how much money is in the account right away. I want to buy shares!"

Princess Wu Shao was startled: "Share? What kind of stock?"

King Wu Shao said anxiously, "Let the steward check the accounts first!"

Seeing that the prince was in a hurry, the princess immediately asked the housekeeper to check the accounts first.Only then did King Wu Shao say to the princess: "Your Majesty ordered today that the 'Academy of Military Medicine' release [-] original shares, and His Majesty's private treasury recognized [-] shares. Use the new drugs released by the research institute, and you can also enjoy the medical treatment of the research institute first! Hu Yishou, Wei Yiling and Bai Yiling are all in the Military Medical Research Institute!" Speaking of this, King Wu Shao lowered his voice, " How can you ignore the Military Medical Research Institute?"

As soon as Princess Wu Shao moved her body, she immediately shouted: "My lord! We have to buy shares! We must join!"

Nian Qing was the last one to leave. He stayed in the palace and His Majesty gave a good lesson on the economy and the stock market.He came back with a dizzy head, and before he could catch his breath, the steward came to inform King Wu Shao, King Xianyi, Sui Guogong, Marquis of Chang'an and others.Nian Qing is full of shit, this is not here to buy shares!The exchange hasn't opened yet!He hasn't figured it out yet!

After a busy day, Emperor Yong'an had dinner at Fengtian Hall and then moved to Huayang Palace.The treasury has no money, and the private treasury is also poor.Emperor Yong'an is worried.But Zhuo Ji gave him an idea, the money is coming soon.Of the [-] shares subscribed by the private treasury, part of the money Yong'an Emperor borrowed from the Queen Mother.The queen mother took out all her private rooms.Emperor Yong'an was in a good mood, so he ate half a bowl more for dinner. If his beloved waiter made it for him, he could eat two more bowls.Emperor Yong'an felt more and more that the imperial chef's skills were not good enough.He is considering whether to change the cook.

When we arrived at Huayang Palace, the noble concubine was already waiting at the door.Emperor Yong'an is in a good mood today, with a smile on his face.The maids of Huayang Palace all looked at His Majesty attentively, and with the acquiescence of His Majesty, they quietly followed His Majesty into the house with His Majesty.Emperor Yong'an said a few words to these attendants one by one, and Liu Xizhu said in particular: "Your Majesty has returned from a great victory, and the attendant is very encouraged. During these days when His Majesty went to conquer, the attendant embroidered a picture of His Majesty's personal conquest. To His Majesty."

Emperor Yong'an said curiously, "Bring me to have a look."

Liu Xizhu turned sideways slightly, and his personal eunuch immediately opened the scroll, and on a five-foot-square embroidered picture, it was indeed the situation on the day when Emperor Yong'an went out for an expedition. On the way, the big car of Emperor Yong'an was particularly conspicuous.There is no shadow of Emperor Yong'an in the embroidered picture, but everyone knows that His Majesty is in that carriage.It can be said that the cleverness of this embroidered picture lies in the fact that in such an implicit artistic conception, it is easy for people to guess the dignity of the emperor in the big body and the domineering spirit that is about to conquer the world.

Emperor Yong'an stood up and walked to the embroidered picture, looked at it carefully and praised: "Not bad, the embroidery is good."

Liu Xizhu's personal eunuch immediately said: "In order to dedicate this embroidery picture to His Majesty, the master only sleeps for three hours a day, and his fingers are swollen from embroidery."

Liu Xizhu put his hands behind his back and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Emperor Yong'an stretched out his hand to hold Liu Xizhu's hand, and sure enough, he saw that the fingers of his right hand pinching the needle were red and swollen, and there were many needle holes on the index finger of his left hand.Emperor Yong'an shook Liu Xizhu's hand and said, "You have a heart. Zhang Xian, let me hang this embroidery picture in Wensi Pavilion."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhang Xian lowered his head and went forward to accept the embroidery.Liu Xizhu thanked her with red eyes, and then said: "Your Majesty can come back safely, and the war can go smoothly. It's nothing more than a few pricks with needles. It's also because the embroidery skills of the servant are not good, so it took a long time." A little bit."

Huang Guixie picked up the tea bowl and lowered his head to drink tea, his lowered eyes covered his thoughts at the moment.Of the maids in the house, only Liu Xizhu prepared the ceremony.This gift from Liu Xizhu can be said to be very unexpected. The servants who did not take advantage of this gift were jealous of Liu Xizhu's coming, and blamed themselves for not thinking about it.A gloomy look flashed in Zuo Silin's eyes, he thought he and Liu Xizhu had a good relationship, but he didn't expect this person to hide it from him!Liu Xizhu's eunuch said that he only slept for three hours a day, but Zuo Silin often asked Liu Xizhu to drink tea and chat. If Liu Xizhu really worked so hard for this painting, where would he find the time and He drank tea and chatted together!

But at this moment, Zuo Silin can't tear down Liu Xizhu's platform.He wasn't thinking about his friendship with Liu Xizhu, but if he dismantled Liu Xizhu, Liu Xizhu would have a hard time and he wouldn't be able to please him.

Emperor Yong'an: "I am very pleased that you have this heart. Give Liu Xi a bamboo and jade butterfly belt, a jade pearl and a jade fan."

Liu Xizhu knelt down excitedly and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness—!"

"Get up."

After Liu Xizhu got up, Huang Guixie, who had been drinking tea, put down the tea bowl and said, "Your Majesty has just returned to the palace and is very tired. If you have nothing else to do, you should be fine."

The queen spoke up, even if she wanted to show her face more in front of His Majesty, everyone could only salute and leave.Everyone left, Huang Guixie took a look at Chang An, and Chang An quietly withdrew.After the idlers in the house had retreated, the empress got up and went to Emperor Yong'an and knelt down: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Emperor Yong'an: "Get up, this is what Chen Fang deserves, you have raised Chen Fang very well."

Huang Guixie stood up with red eyes, and said: "The servants dare not take credit for it. It is because of Shun Yu's teaching that Chen Mo can achieve what he is today."

Emperor Yong'an pressed his finger at Huang Guixie's position, Huang Guixie wiped the corner of his eyes and sat down, Emperor Yong'an said: "Chen Mo and Chen Mo originally wanted to stay in Beigu, I also agreed, but Shun Xi is not at ease. , I withdrew my will. The two of them are not afraid of suffering, not afraid of blood, which is beyond my expectation. Now Chen has gone to the prince's office. As his mother and father, don't do anything to hold him back. I am disappointed."

The imperial concubine immediately stood up: "The servants will follow His Majesty's arrangement! It's just..."

Emperor Yong'an: "Just what?"

Your Majesty: "Your Majesty, please treat the wounded in Beigu. In his capacity, this is a great gift to those wounded soldiers. However, the servants have heard some rumors, saying that Your Majesty, you do not allow people to discuss this matter. This is too wronged." It's Shunxi." The noble lady said eagerly: "Your Majesty, you have always loved Shunxi, and doing so will make interested people guess whether Your Majesty is dissatisfied with Shunxi."

Emperor Yong'an sat down the noble concubine again, and said: "I just let Sui Guogong and others into the cabinet, and there are rumors that I want to make him the queen. The tree is big to attract wind, and I dote on him, which is enough to attract wind for him. He is my maidservant, and what he did in Beigu was to share my worries. I forbid people to talk about this matter, and some people can still recognize him. If I let go, some people will say that he is trying to gain fame, that he robbed The merits of the Imperial Medical Office. It was originally a good thing, but it will become an excuse for others to criticize him. Instead of this, I would not give those people a chance at all."

Hearing what His Majesty said, Your Majesty felt relieved, nodded and said, "Your Majesty's concerns are not unreasonable."

Emperor Yong'an went on to say: "He is a servant girl, not an imperial doctor. No matter how good his medical skills are, it is impossible for me to let him go to hang the pot to help the world. It doesn't matter whether others know that he has medical skills. Compared with his reputation, his safety is the most important thing." It's important."

The empress's worries for many days were completely put down, and she said: "The concubines in the harem will be strictly disciplined by the ministers."

Emperor Yong'an nodded, and asked: "Is the palace okay during the period of my personal conquest?"

The imperial concubine replied: "Everything is fine in the palace, but the imperial concubine's reaction has always been very strong. Later, she sent back two bottles of essential oils, and she felt better. The queen mother, ministers and Mingxi also have essential oils, and the ministers all I can't bear to use it."

Emperor Yong'an smiled and said, "He was thinking of you when he found some good things in Beigu."

The royal concubine also laughed, but then he stopped laughing and said: "Last month, Zhuo Wentai's nephew was drunk and beat someone, and he uttered wild words, which involved Shun Xing, and the minister deprived Mrs. Zhuo Yizhi of his marriage." Shuren's order."

Emperor Yong'an's eyes were a little colder, and Huang Guixie didn't need to say it clearly, he could also imagine how the other party would involve Zhuo Ji.Huang Guixie then said with some worry: "After all, Zhuo's family is Shunxi's natal family. The minister is afraid that outsiders will criticize him and say that he has no regard for family ties. Outsiders will not know about the relationship between Shunxi and Zhuo's family." They will only see that Shun is favored by His Majesty, but the life of the Zhuo family is not easy, so some people will inevitably make irresponsible remarks."

Emperor Yong'an: "Just do it. If there is any burden on Shunxi, it is the Zhuo family. The Empress Dowager is also very upset when she sees the Zhuo family." If anyone in the court is dissatisfied with this, someone should raise it in these two days.Regarding the attitude of Yushi and Hanlin towards the Zhuo family, Emperor Yong'an knew the attitude of most officials towards this matter.With the emperor's words, Huang Guixie knew what to do next.

Emperor Yong'an stayed at Huayang Palace that night, but he and Huang Guixie did nothing.He was tired, and the concubine didn't have any thoughts. It would take him a while to calm down completely about his son being made a prince.Moreover, the Empress Dowager also faintly sensed that His Majesty seemed to be dissatisfied with Concubine Xi Gui, but His Majesty did not say so, so it was inconvenient for him to ask further questions.

Early the next morning, Emperor Yong'an went to court after having breakfast in Huayang Palace.All the people in the harem came to pay their respects to the queen.During the gap between the emperor's departure and the arrival of the concubines, Chang'an said in a low voice while serving the master's make-up, "Master, this Liu Ya is also thoughtful."

He was talking about Liu Xizhu's gift last night.But Huang Guixie said flatly: "Qi Yiguo and Tong Yifeng who entered the palace with him have both become slaves, so he is naturally impatient."

Chang An worriedly said, "Your Majesty won't be really moved by him, will you?"

The corner of Huang Guixie's mouth twitched: "There will only be one Shunxi in this Danyang Palace."

"Master, the noble lords of the palaces have come to greet you." The eldest lady Zi Yuan came in to report, and the noble lady got up and sat down on the lord seat.

When Emperor Yong'an came to court, Chen Changgeng, the censor of Zuodu, had a book to impeach Zhuo Wentai, a scholar in attendance, for allowing his family to oppress others with power.Chen Changgeng's impeachment had just finished, and Shi Keyu, another bachelor's attendant, also impeached his colleague Zhuo Wentai.The deputy censor of Zuodu followed.Zhuo Yizhi and Zhuo Wentai immediately knelt down and called for grievances, but King Wu Shao and King Xianyi also came out to impeach them.For a while, half of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty impeached Zhuo Yizhi and Zhuo Wentai for being lax in housekeeping and conniving at the family to oppress others. How harsh Zhuo Wentai's wife was to the servants, anyway, as long as they could show that Zhuo Yizhi and Zhuo Wentai had problems, all the trivial things were shaken out.

There is Zhuo Ji behind the Zhuo family, and some officials are also watching, not understanding the deep meaning of Wu Shaowang and others' move.Wang Xianming, a doctor in the Ministry of Officials, came out and said: "Your Majesty, Zhuo Yizhi and Zhuo Wentai have been favored by His Majesty for their obedience and obedience. They acted recklessly and bullied others abroad, causing public resentment. Your Majesty must punish them severely!"

King Wu Shao, King Xian Yi and others looked at Wang Xianming like an idiot. They impeached Zhuo Yizhi and Zhuo Wentai, but absolutely no one mentioned Shun Yu.This man is so bold!Emperor Yong'an, who was at the top, looked at Mi Wanzhong, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who was silent.

Zhuo Yizhi cried and begged: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged! Although you are favored by Your Majesty, you have never given me the Zhuo family's Yu Ze because of it! You are deeply aware of righteousness, how dare the members of the Zhuo family use the name of you to commit crimes? , Your Majesty, please be aware!"

Zhuo Wentai also cried and begged: "Your Majesty! Although I am the biological father of Chuchu, I would never dare to use the name of Chuchu to do injustice. It is his fault that Cong Jin was drunk and committed crimes, but it is also because of the other party's bad words. First of all, please let your majesty know!"

But Wang Xianming retorted: "If it wasn't for your majesty's favor, how could Zhuo Shidu's nephew say something like 'my cousin is your majesty's favored servant Shunzu'! Zhuo Shidu said your nephew beat someone It was because the other party uttered evil words first, so what evil words did the other party utter? Zhuo Shidu's nephew had to hide in the house completely, and the Zhuo Shidu who said evil words first was seriously injured Almost died!"

At this time, Chen Changgeng suddenly said: "What Wang Langzhong means is that by the way, he gave Zhuo Shidu's nephew the confidence to commit murder in the street?"

Wang Xianming was stunned for a moment, and said with something in his words: "When Lai Congjin hit someone, he kept saying 'my cousin is His Majesty's favored servant'. Many people at the scene heard this, and the subordinate did not target without purpose. Your Majesty favors you, and the officials are beyond reproach, but the reason why the Zhuo family dare to beat people in the street is not because of His Majesty's favor for Shunyou?"

Chen Changgeng: "But as far as I know, since Shunyu entered the palace, he has never sought any welfare for the Zhuo family. Wang Langzhong's words are biased."

Wang Xianming: "It is the blessing of Zhuo's family to be favored by Chu Qu. The evil things that Zhuo Shaoyi and Zhuo Shidu have done are not precisely because of His Majesty's love for Chu Chu, which makes them feel confident? "

As Minister of the Ministry of War, Guan Minghui, who was inconvenient to impeach, stood up and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I am terrified. Your Majesty loves you. Since I entered the cabinet, I dare not be careless every day. Not to mention hard work, but I am also cautious, for fear of disappointing Your Majesty's love. But Today, I heard what Wang Langzhong said, that His Majesty ordered his ministers to join the cabinet because of His Majesty's favor. I am ashamed..." At this point, Guan Minghui raised his head, begging with snot and tears, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty's qualifications are blunt! Your Majesty, please take back your order to join the cabinet!"

After finishing speaking, there were three bang bang bang bangs.
