has been watching her. Last night, she was affected by the effects of the wine, so she didn't look much like her. Chen Jingzong wanted her to be happy again when she was sober. Only if she learned th...the Empress Dowager Wei lives in the back hall of Palace of Heavenly Purity.
originally she lived in Cining Palace. Considering that the emperor was still young when he first ascended the throne, the cabinet asked the Empress Dowager Qi to move to Palace of Heavenly Purity to take care of Emperor Yuanyou.
the former emperor had only two sons, one was already a fan at that time, and there was only one little emperor in the palace, which was extremely precious. Of course, he could only be relieved by the care of the empress dowager.
Empress Dowager Qi does take good care of her son. In recent years, Emperor Yuanyou has not even had a cold cough.
when he left the imperial study, Emperor Yuanyou came directly to the back hall.
the Empress Dowager Qi was reading the Buddhist sutras. Only two maids stood quietly on both sides, and the room was quiet and peaceful.
"my son has met his mother." Emperor Yuanyou came in and saluted with a smile.
the Empress Dowager Qi had already put down the Buddhist sutras and saw that her son, who had a long body in front of her, not only had the tall and straight figure of the former emperor, but also inherited the advantages of her appearance with the former emperor. She was really a beautiful young man and elegant.
"sit down."
Emperor Yuanyou sat on the side of Empress Dowager Qi. Mother and son looked at each other, and Emperor Yuanyou took the initiative to say, "Mother, I just summoned Mr. and he GE Lao in the imperial study."
Empress Dowager Qi: "for the sake of taxation"
Emperor Yuanyou: "Yes, I would rather use he GE's old method, and my husband just agreed."
he told his mother exactly what Chen Tingjian had said.
Empress Dowager Qi silently turned the sandalwood Buddha beads on her wrist to see her young, frivolous and high-spirited son. Qi said, "as Chen GE said, this road is extremely difficult. You are not afraid, and the mother is very pleased. It's just that the risks involved are still not clear to them. If there are rebellious rioters everywhere, and if some of them become a real threat to the imperial court, will you be afraid and regret if your relatives, gentry, people, and Beijing officials scold you together "
Emperor Yuanyou: "I will probably be afraid. As for whether I regret it or not, it depends on whether they win or I win." If I win, no matter how difficult it is in front of me, I will be happy behind. If I lose, I can only cede the world to others. Anyway, even if I do not reform and connive at my relatives, officials and gentry, the rivers and mountains of my ancestors will eventually become other people's rivers and mountains, which have changed from time to time. "
Empress Dowager Qi: "that's easy for you to say."
Yuan Yuyou Emperor: "I understand my mother's worries, and I also know that I dare to be fearless when I am young. But when the throne is passed on, only I dare to try. When Mr. he GE is gone, who else can be expected to advocate such a reform" Mother, I don't want to be reviled by the people all over the world like my grandfather, and I don't want to indulge in mediocrity like my father. Even if I lose in the end, future generations will only regret my frivolity and will not criticize me for being wrong. "
Empress Dowager Qi: "your ancestors will scold you for losing your own country."
Emperor Yuanyou: "my ancestors will not scold me, but he will scold those insatiable clans and relatives, and the corrupt officials and gentry of the fish and flesh people."
Empress Dowager Qi
I have to say that the ancestors did have such a temper. Not only that, the ancestors would scold the unfilial children in front of them who had corrupted their ancestral heritage.
Empress Dowager Qi thought of Chen Tingjian again.
she doesn't know how long her son's frivolous loyalty will last, but she believes that Chen Tingjian will not joke about national affairs, and if Chen Tingjian agrees, he will certainly stabilize the country for his son with an iron and bloody fist. The most difficult two years will be the two years before the son's pro-government, so at this time, Chen Tingjian, the assistant political leader, will bear the blame for the reform. Even if the reform is lost in the future, the son can still push out the cabinet to the royal gentry to vent. The son only needs to change the cabinet, and he can continue to be a carefree emperor who has no choice but to take advantage of himself all his life.
Chen Tingjian will only know better what she understands.
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
but Chen Tingjian promised his son.
Empress Dowager Qi raised her head slightly, and it took a while to tell her son this story. She said, "if you really take this step, you actually have a way out, but Chen Tingjian and he Qingxian are like opening a bow without turning back. Once you retire, they must die."
Emperor Yuanyou thought of Chen Tingjian. Chen, who was like his father as a teacher, would discipline him severely and would take great pains to pave the way for him.
he also thought of he Qingxian, who was loyal and devoted to the people, but was despised by his grandfather and despised by his father, and it was not until his dynasty that he finally had a chance to give full play to his ambition.
two old men can ignore themselves for the sake of the court people, so he will stand behind them unswervingly.
"I will not retire. I would rather be broken in jade than in tile."
the Empress Dowager Qi smiled and said, "then do it boldly. Regardless of the merits and demerits, we share the responsibility of mother and son."
.
after the Lunar New year, officials are on holiday again.
Huayang took Chen Jingzong back to Chenfu.
Chen Tingjian is not here.
Sun: "I don't know what he's doing. He enters the palace every day before dawn and comes back after dark. I don't think he's even in the mood for this year."
how can Huayang believe that his father has not disclosed any information to his mother-in-law that the implementation of the new policy next year will be thousands of times more difficult than the examination of the law and the national purge, not to mention the cabinet these days, six officials have been getting up early in the morning and taking part in the revision of the new rules. Including my younger brother, when Huayang entered the palace in the morning, I only saw my mother. I heard that my younger brother was also staying in the cabinet, sharing three meals a day with the cabinet.
Huayang noticed that Luo Yuyan was a little depressed.
when the sun was fine today, when the three girls went to hang out in the garden, Luo Yuyan finally had a chance to tell the eldest princess what was on her mind: "the third master said that next year he would go out to Songjiang House in southern Zhili."
although Chen Xiaozong was vague, Luo Yuyan guessed that it was too difficult to implement the new policy, and the father-in-law sent his son to go to the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, where the gentry were intertwined, even though Chen Xiaozong was vague and Luo Yuyan guessed that the government was going to implement the new policy.
when corrupt officials come to the south of the Yangtze River, they will naturally be treated with filial piety by the officials and gentry below.
Chen Xiaozong wants to fight against these local snakes, and the risks involved.
Luo Yuyan is going to cry.
she wanted to go with Chen Xiaozong. Chen Xiaozong said something indecent there and promised that he would never play around, but he just refused to agree.
Yu Xiu took out her veil and half hugged Luo Yuyan's shoulder, but her own tears came down.
Huayang remembers that in the previous life, Chen Bozong and Chen Xiaozong were both released. Chen Xiaozong worked as a magistrate in Huating County, Songjiang Prefecture, and Chen Bozong went to Guangdong to become a magistrate.
she had no way of knowing how many risks the brothers encountered outside, except that the one whip law of the two places was carried out quite thoroughly until their father-in-law died of illness in August, and the brothers had to give up their errands and return to Beijing for filial piety.
the father was buried in August. In October, Zhang Pan led the courtiers to impeach the father. In November, Chen Bozong died in prison, and the Chen family distributed it in December.
you can't think about it at all, let alone look at the two weak people around you.
Huayang walked away.
Luo Yuyan snapped twice and asked Yu Xiu anxiously, "is the eldest princess angry she thinks we have spoiled her spirits."
Yu Xiu: "the eldest princess is not that kind of person, but let's not do this. The court is employing people. We should be considerate."
instead of being followed by Chaoyun and Chaoyue, Huayang came to the lotus pond in the Chenfu garden.r.Chen Jingzong's anger is understandable, and she is right. She really told him in advance that with his temper, even if she admired Chen Bozong and Chen Xiaozong more, he had to say something strang...
