Chapter 725
Never mind. I didn't intend to ask for anything. In an instant, Emperor Mingde regained his usual calmness. "By the way, I'm cutting costs and reducing staff. Is there anyone out there who is gossiping?"
When Eunuch Qi saw that Emperor Mingde changed the subject, he felt a little distressed.
My master, it’s really difficult.
It's not easy to meet a woman you like, but you have to worry about this and that. If it were another emperor, he would do everything he could to get her into the palace.
In this world of the North Wing, who is not his master?
Even though he was complaining in his heart, he still honestly fulfilled his duties as Qi Wanshitong. "Recently, there have been quite a lot of gossips about the emperor. It's all because of 'saving money and reducing staff'. It's fine if you say it's about the palace maids, but why did you also drive the concubines out of the palace? It's obvious that the emperor has seduced you and then abandoned you."
Emperor Mingde showed no emotion at all, as he had expected this to happen. "Back then, the Empress Dowager repeatedly stuffed people into the harem, and I could not stop her. I have never seen many of them. Now I have the final say, it is time to let them leave the palace."
"My emperor is wise!" Eunuch Qi said sincerely, "Most of the women who choose to go home have no roots in their mother's family."
Emperor Mingde instructed, "Have someone keep an eye on the Ministry of Rites to make sure nothing goes wrong during the placement process. These women are all victims of the struggle between me and the Empress Dowager, and it's really pitiful. Also send someone to check on them regularly to see if they are doing well. If their mother's family can't accommodate them, report the names of all of them."
Report it and put pressure on them, and they will naturally behave themselves.
Eunuch Qi replied, "I'll remember that."
Emperor Mingde began to review memorials again, and this time he was much more focused.
In a person's life, there must always be someone who is suitable to be kept in your heart. Not disturbing each other is also a kind of beauty.
Emperor Mingde coaxed himself into submission, feeling very happy and that his view on love had been elevated.
On this side, Nan Yan brought over the lotus seed soup, gave the girl and the son-in-law a bowl each, and placed it in front of them, not forgetting to remind them, "Girl, son-in-law, eat it while it's hot."
As if he was afraid that the two of them would have to deal with it, he just stood by and supervised.
Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan smiled at each other and had to say "OK" at the same time, which made Nan Yan smile.
I just feel that the marriage between the girl and the son-in-law is really perfect. Look at this big house, there are not many random people.
Think about it half a year ago, the whole mansion was in a mess... Hey! Why think about that? It's unlucky!
After they both finished eating, she cleaned up the jade bowl and walked out the door with a smile on her face.
After Cen Yuan finished eating the lotus seed soup, the drunkenness disappeared.
Seeing that the little girl was still frowning, he comforted her, "Once the crisis in the North Wing is resolved, we will take mother-in-law to travel around the countries and finally go to Liang. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Even if he is Emperor Mingde, he can't reach him just by stretching out his hand."
Go to Liang State? Shi Anxia then remembered that the man in front of him was also an emperor, an emperor who was forced to abdicate while on the run.
To be honest, this one is hotter.
Originally, before the marriage, when he confessed to her that he was the young emperor of Liang, she could have refused the marriage, or at least postponed it for a year.
But she couldn't bear it for some reason. There was a force in her heart that made her feel that she "should" marry him earlier.
Shi Anxia looked at Cen Yuan like a little fox, and suddenly asked, "Are you going to take back Liang State? When will you start?"
The fact that the Luo family of Youzhou took action in this life means that he will take the initiative to attack.
Cen Yuan said, "If we follow the trajectory of the previous life, eight years from now will be the most suitable opportunity."
Eight years later, he was able to regain the throne without bloodshed and at the lowest cost.
If it were now, even if he had the confidence to capture the capital and regain the throne, there would definitely be rivers of blood.
The people of the capital city suffered the most. The change of dynasties always happened step by step, step by step, on the corpses of others.
Even when Emperor Yong forced Emperor Heng to abdicate, half of the capital city was dyed red with blood.
Shi Anxia murmured to herself, "Eight years..."
She got it.
She raised her eyes and looked again at Cen Yuan who was sitting opposite her, and was suddenly moved.
He is a man with great righteousness!
She really understood, "During these eight years, Emperor Yong was still a good emperor. He reduced taxes and levies, allowed the people to rest and recuperate, and lived and worked in peace and contentment."
Cen Yuan nodded, "That's right. After Emperor Yong came to power, he introduced a series of measures that benefited the people, making Liang State much better under his rule than under... me."
Of course, this couldn't be blamed on Cen Yuan himself. At that time, he was just a young emperor, a puppet without power.
