These years of being the queen mother!

Because of an accidental death, Zhu Youxiao's coffin was transported out of the capital and buried at the foot of Tianshou Mountain after only staying in the Qianqing Palace for a few days.Not long after Zhu Youxiao was buried, the officials of the Ministry of Rituals began to be busy again. First, they tossed and gave the title of Yi to the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces (Queen Zhang was not abolished). The issue of the number was immediately put on the schedule of the Ministry of Rites.

Empress Zhang, who has been promoted to Queen Mother Zhang in the East Palace, has the title of Empress Ci'an, while Yang Lingyue's title is the same as that of a famous woman in history, named Cixi.Leaving aside whether Yang Lingyue has anything in common with the famous Empress Dowager Cixi, let’s just say that when the Minister of Rites told her about the title, Yang Lingyue’s first reaction was frightened, and her second reaction was...

"Cixi, what's your intention?"

"Xi, Fu Ye, it is a great blessing for the empress dowager to bless and give birth to auspiciousness. The word "Xi" is most suitable for the empress dowager."

It means that the reason why she is named Cixi and can stand side by side with Queen Zhang as the queen mother of the two palaces is entirely due to her gaining power.Yang Lingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, but she did not deny the officials of the Minister of Rites, but said, "As long as the East Palace has no other opinions, this palace doesn't care..."

Yang Lingyue paused, then turned to ask: "The emperor is still young, so don't make the enthronement ceremony too complicated. Keep everything simple. If you think about it, the late emperor will not blame you if he is alive."

The Minister of Rites nodded, and said respectfully and politely: "Everything is strictly in accordance with the Queen Mother's order."

"I think you still have important matters to deal with. It is inconvenient for me to keep you here. You can leave on your own." When the Minister of Rites obediently withdrew from Qianqing Palace, Yang Lingyue turned to ask Chunlai. "Is the emperor awake?"

"Not yet!" Chunlai replied softly, "Do you want your servant to wake up His Majesty?"

Yang Lingyue nodded, and said, "Shi Qing is about to come to teach, what's the matter with the emperor still lying on the bed?" When Chun Lai opened his mouth to defend Zhu Cilin, who is not yet three years old, Yang Lingyue suddenly sighed , said with a sad tone: "I also know that the emperor is young and still ignorant and naive. It is not good to suddenly put the responsibility on him, but Tianlin is a sensible child. I think I will not be dissatisfied with the current chief assistant Shi Fenglai came to Qing Palace to teach him."

After Zhu Youxiao's body was buried at the foot of Tianshou Mountain, Yang Lingyue took Zhu Cilin and Zhu Shuyu's sisters to live in Qianqing Palace.Now Zhu Cilin is still young, and she wants to listen to politics behind the curtain, so the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not say a word, and even Zhu Youjian, who hadn't given up much and wanted to work harder, tried to make trouble, but was suppressed by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. He could only accept his fate as the first vassal prince in Ming Dynasty who was imprisoned in the palace for his whole life.

Chunlai didn't speak because she didn't know how to answer, so she had to let the silence spread. Fortunately, at this moment, Qiu Qu suddenly appeared with Zhu Cilin, who was already fully dressed, and Chunlai breathed a sigh of relief.The majesty of the empress is really getting stronger and stronger.

As soon as Zhu Cilin entered the Nuan Pavilion, she first smiled sweetly at Yang Lingyue, revealing the dimple-like dimple on her left side, and then called her empress crisply.

Speaking of children who lost their father or mother, most of them are precocious, and Zhu Cilin is obviously no exception.He is almost four years old now, although he doesn't really understand the meaning of the word father, but he obviously already vaguely knows that in this huge Forbidden City, he can rely on only his mother and two older sisters. biological mother.So after Zhu Youxiao left, Zhu Cilin, who was not very talkative, became quieter and more mature.

Every time she sees Zhu Cilin like this, Yang Lingyue says that it is impossible not to feel sorry for her, but it is not the same. As far as the current situation is concerned, the more Yang Lingyue loves Zhu Cilin, the more she will harm him. Yang Lingyue does not want her Tianlin to become a historical one Like Emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty, because he was suppressed by his powerful mother everywhere, he became cowardly and absurd, so Yang Lingyue could only be ruthless, and according to the usual practice, he found an emperor teacher for him who was only four years old.

Speaking of which, although Yang Lingyue was born in the Department of History in his previous life, he didn't know everything about history, but he still knew about half of it.But thanks to Chongzhen's suspicious nature in history, he reigned for 17 years, and the cabinet chief assistant was changed almost every year. Shi Fenglai was the first cabinet chief assistant after Emperor Chongzhen succeeded his elder brother Zhu Youxiao to the throne.Tianqi was appointed as the chief assistant of the cabinet in November, and Chongzhen became official in March of the first year of Chongzhen, which was not even half a year.

It was August when Zhu Youxiao died, so the year name of Tianqi was still used this year. After Zhu Cilin officially became the new emperor of Ming Dynasty on the first day of the first month, the name of Tianqi was officially changed to Taichang.To this, Yang Lingyue has only one reaction, that is, fortunately, the year name is not Chongzhen, otherwise she will definitely kill Zhu Youjian immediately, instead of letting him still retain the title of King Xin, and spend every day drunk in the Palace of King Xin I am dreaming of my brother succeeding to the throne!

Let's get back to the topic and talk about Shi Fenglai.The current chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty was ranked second in Ding Weike's ranking in the 35th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. However, because he is a member of the Wei Party, he has a bad reputation among traditional scholar-bureaucrats.And the reason why Yang Lingyue made Shi Fenglai the emperor's teacher was because he valued his smoothness, and he did not seek meritorious deeds in doing things. .One must know that the main reason she found a teacher for Zhu Cilin was to make Zhu Cilin study hard. If she chose an old scholar to teach Zhu Cilin to be a gentleman, then she would cry even if she wanted to.This is not to say that a gentleman is bad, but that being an emperor cannot be a gentleman at all, and even if it is, it can only be fake.

Yang Lingyue sighed, and turned to put her small, delicate, fair chin on Zhu Cilin's forehead in her arms, and said softly.

"Shi Qing will come in a while, so don't keep silent and just ask any questions. There should be nothing I don't understand about Shi Qing's abilities."

Zhu Ciling smiled shyly, and said crisply: "Mother, I understand."

I hope you really understand...

Looking more and more like Zhu Youxiao's son in her arms, Yang Lingyue's eyes flashed with complexity.Speaking of it, even Yang Lingyue herself couldn't tell her feelings for Zhu Youxiao, saying ~love~ no, saying that she likes it, but there is no doubt that Zhu Youxiao has such a place in her heart, otherwise Zhu Youxiao Why did she feel sad when the school died!

But although it is sad, it is not much, otherwise she would not just cheer up after being sad all day and night. It is true that being a mother is strong, but it also shows that Yang Lingyue does not have deep feelings for Zhu Youxiao. After all, they The days together are not more than seven years, and according to Yang Lingyue's cold-heartedness, it can be regarded as enough.

Yang Lingyue rubbed Zhu Cilin's soft hair, then let him go. "The queen mother is going to visit your sister who likes to stay in bed, and then let Qiu make the Qiqiao fruit you like to eat..."

"I want bean paste buns too..." Zhu Cilin asked innocently, with eyebrows and eyes curved.This appearance made Yang Lingyue, Chunlai and Qiuqu smile even deeper on the faces.

"Okay, add bean paste buns."

"I'll go to the Jiaotai Hall right now, so Master Shi won't wait for a long time..."

Yang Lingyue nodded and said with a smile: "It's good to respect the teacher, but you must also understand the way of the monarch and ministers..."

Zhu Cilin tilted his head, and asked in bewilderment: "What is the way of a monarch and ministers!"

The smile on Yang Lingyue's face deepened, but her voice was still as soft as a spring breeze, and she spoke softly. "The queen mother can't tell you in detail, because this can only be experienced by you, Tianlin..."

Zhu Cilin blinked, and Yang Lingyue couldn't help but sigh with that half-understanding look. "When you go to the court tomorrow, carefully observe the reactions of the officials in the court, talk less and do less, everything depends on how the queen mother behaves."

"The queen mother, this son-in-law will retire and go to the Jiaotai Palace."

So after being filial to the mother and son, Zhu Cilin went to the Jiaotai Hall. At this time, Shi Fenglai, the newly appointed chief minister of the cabinet, was already waiting in the Jiaotai Hall.When Shi Feng came to see Zhu Cilin, he saluted respectfully on the spot and said: "I am attending His Majesty, I don't know how Your Majesty is doing recently."

Zhu Cilin tilted his head and looked curiously at the middle-aged fat uncle in front of him for a moment, imitating Shi Fenglai's tone. "I'm doing well recently, Shi Aiqing doesn't need to worry. You must know that you will be my teacher and my servant in the future, and I will be obedient and study hard."

Shi Fenglai was dumbfounded. Didn't he say that the new emperor was shy and didn't like to talk? Who was this bright yellow dragon robe, who looked like a yellow dumpling, and who spoke very smartly...

Eunuch Wei, I admit that you are very powerful and have a good eye for people, but this time at least your evaluation of our new emperor is really very biased!

Shi Fenglai is also a character, although after seeing Zhu Cilin, he overthrew the previous character design constructed by Wei Zhongxian in an instant, but he was stunned for only a moment, and soon came back to his senses, nodding to Zhu Cilin with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty is right. I am both your teacher and your subordinate. Normally, I should listen to you, but now, as a teacher, Your Majesty must listen to me."

Zhu Cilin blinked, although he was still puzzled by Shi Fenglai's meaning, it didn't prevent him from pretending to understand. "I understand. I promised my mother that I will study hard and make progress every day, so I will be obedient."

Shi Fenglai stroked his beard and smiled: "That's right."

After the freshly released master-student had an ingenious dialogue, Zhu Cilin's career as an ultra-low-age schoolboy began.Shi Fenglai was proud of becoming the emperor's teacher just now.However, Shi Fenglai, who is tactful and good at guessing other people's thoughts, guessed that Yang Lingyue, the powerful Empress Dowager Cixi, probably didn't want to see him teach Zhu Cilin to be a gentleman who followed the rules, so he didn't come up with the so-called stereotyped essay model essay to let her know. Zhu Cilin learned to write stereotyped essays, but first taught Zhu Cilin to recite the Three-Character Classic and Thousand-Character Classics. When Zhu Cilin was ready to learn how to read and write, he taught Zhu Cilin some things that were really needed and useful to Zhu Cilin, such as "Zhenguan Zhengyao".
