marry queen

Chapter 14 Newcomer

In the court hall on the second day, Fu Wei almost quarreled with the officials, and the matter of the deer blood wine finally reached their ears. Yin and yang are contrary to human relations, and they don't know how to control their licentiousness and so on. Fu Lie was so angry that he wished to break their papers on the spot.

Among the officials, there are many followers of the Queen Mother, but there are still some people who are not the Queen Mother's party, but they are too upright, and they are among them, such as Zhao Yunchen. Everyone has a saying.

Fu Yi couldn't get angry on the spot, so he left a few officials and Zhao Yunchen to go to the imperial study to continue the quarrel.

Zhao Yunchen was impassioned, "Your Majesty, the matter of your harem has nothing to do with me, but if you are obsessed with the harem and seek pleasure, I have no choice but to persuade you."

Fu Yu was very speechless, "When did I indulge in the harem for pleasure, Zhao Qing don't want to hear nonsense."

Zhao Yunchen said again: "Your Majesty is young, I can understand, but His Majesty is the king of Northern Wu, don't mess up Gangchang because of a man."

The others all said: "What Mr. Zhao said is very true."

Fu Yi didn't bother to argue with them any longer, and said with a blank expression: "Then, according to my loves, what should I do?"

Hubu Shangshu took a step forward and said, "I believe that Your Majesty should abolish Mr. Yunyu and revive the Harem Gangji."

"Bold!" Fu Lu patted the table, "Mr. Yunyu is the eldest son of Marquis Annan. Marquis Annan has made great contributions to Northern Wu for several generations. Now his eldest son has entered the palace as a concubine again. He has not made a big mistake. If Abolishing it at will, wouldn't it cool the hearts of the descendants of the heroes?"

The Hubu Shangshu belongs to the empress dowager's faction. He knew that he had said something wrong, so he was in a hurry to plead guilty. Zhao Yunchen said: "Lord Cai really didn't think carefully. Your Majesty's pity for Marquis Annan makes me happy, but a man can't extend the royal heir after all. , I believe that your majesty should put the heirs first."

Fu Yi said helplessly: "Since Marquis Annan sent the eldest son to the palace, I should settle down well. Naturally, the heirs are the most important thing. Now that the eldest prince is just born and his body is weak, I put all my thoughts on him. I have my own discretion as to which is more important and which is less important, so you don't need to say any more."

Speaking of this, several officials accepted the advice and did not continue to persuade him. Zhao Yunchen was very pleased to see that the emperor had been persuaded, and saluted respectfully with the others, saying in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"

After they left, Fu Xun rubbed his forehead and sat in the imperial dining room for a long time. These pedantic officials are really difficult to deal with, but for the sake of Shen Zhiqiu's reputation, it is still not appropriate for him to go to Ganquan Palace these few days. He asked Jin Fu to go to Ganquan Palace to preach Having said that, Jin Fu didn't express the words of the counselors' persuasion, Shen Zhiqiu also understood that now he has become a monster in the eyes of those counselors and censors.

Fu Wei served lunch in Fengyi Palace, and the queen was still in poor health. It was just autumn, and she had already put on fur-collared clothes. Fu Wei touched her cold hand and frowned slightly, "Why is it so cold? It’s still cold, tell them to light up the charcoal basin ahead of time.”

The queen said gently: "The concubine is not cold, is His Majesty discussing the matter of Young Master Yunyu with Master Zhao and the others?"

The empress also knew about the deer blood wine, and she was heartbroken that Fu Yu loved Shen Zhiqiu so much, but her good upbringing prevented her from being angry with Fu Yu. Seeing that the matter of deer blood wine had been advised by the censors, she dared not Going to touch Fu Yu's bad luck again, he just asked a symbolic question.

Fu Yi's complexion was really not good, he said: "The queen mother is easy to plan."

The queen thought for a while, but couldn't help persuading her: "Your majesty's actions in Yongshou Palace yesterday have already been heard by my concubine. I know that your majesty loves Mr. Yunyu, but no matter how much you feel sorry for him, you should take care of your mother's face."

Fu Yi also knew that yesterday's behavior was inappropriate. After all, the Empress Dowager Zhou was his mother, and he shouldn't speak up, but he was really angry with her actions, so he didn't go back to Yongshou Palace yesterday, but he had to go today. It's over, and they haven't reached the time to tear their faces, so they said: "I know, I will go to ask my mother to ask for sin at night."

The queen smiled at him when she heard this, and held his hand tightly to keep warm. She had 1 questions about Shen Zhiqiu in her heart, but she couldn't ask them out.After the eldest prince was born, Fu Yi often came to Fengyi Palace, but he never touched her again, maybe because he was considerate of her poor health, or maybe it was because of something else, the queen didn't dare to think about it.Since she married Fu Yu, she has been fulfilling her duties as a court official. Due to her status and etiquette, she can't always express her deep affection for Fu Yu. She can feel Fu Yu's feelings for her, more than respect, but not enough tenderness. She thinks that the emperor Her feelings were like this, until Shen Zhiqiu entered the palace, she realized that it was not.

I think too much, I feel uncomfortable, and my body is also tired.After the two of them had lunch, Fu Yi helped her to rest in the Nuan Pavilion, and the nanny brought the eldest prince. Fu Yi played with the eldest prince for a long time before coming out of Fengyi Palace.

Fu Yi walked straight towards the Yongshou Palace. The Queen Mother was still taking a nap, so Fu Yi waited patiently. After waiting for about an hour, the Queen Mother woke up and walked out holding the hand of the border flag. Without raising her eyelids, she said lazily, "Get up." That way, she was still angry.

Fu Yi didn't get up, but still half-kneeling, and said as if pleading guilty: "The son was reckless yesterday and offended the queen, so he came here to plead guilty to the queen."

The queen mother glanced at him, took a sip of ginseng tea, and then said: "The emperor has a big idea, Ai's family is old, and I can't bear your gift, get up quickly."

Fu Yi lowered his eyes and continued: "The son is unfilial and hurts the empress. Let the empress punish me. I just ask the empress not to hurt her body because of anger."

The Empress Dowager Zhou gave a long sigh, put down the ginseng tea, finally stood up and went to help Fu Yi personally, and said sadly: "The Ai family knows that you like Shen Shi, and is willing to spoil him, but the Ai family also loves your body, you think the Ai family is willing Take care of them, I wish I could enjoy family happiness every day, why bother about you."

Fu Yi hurriedly helped the queen mother to sit down, and then took a seat beside her, and said respectfully: "Yes, the queen mother loves her son very much, and the son knows that everything is his fault."

The queen mother glanced at him and frowned slightly, "You spoil a man like this. In the final analysis, there are few people in the harem. Except for Mrs. Shen, the rest of them were brought in from the palace. Naturally, there is nothing new about it. Last time in the draft, you also Insisting on keeping only Shen Shi, is even more used to him not knowing the heights of heaven and earth."

Fu Yi listened, and sneered in his heart. There was such a big commotion, so it turned out that he was waiting for him here. He failed in the first draft, so is he going to come for the second time?

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager said slowly, "The harem is full, and the emperor can prosper with heirs. The concubine of the brother-in-law of the Ai family has just reached the age of ji, why not let her enter the palace to serve the emperor."

Such a meticulous plan was just to send a niece into the palace. How could Fu Yi refuse to agree, and immediately stood up and thanked: "Thank you, mother, for thinking about my son. The mother's family is naturally excellent, and everything is arranged by the mother."

The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with Fu Yu's attitude, and immediately decided to send Zhou Yixin into the palace three days later, the mother and son said something else, and Fu Yu accompanied the Queen Mother to dinner before returning to Chengguang Hall.

Going back to Chengguang Hall alone, his face darkened. The queen mother in the harem has not been found yet, and now he is going to blatantly arrange for one to come in. Fu Yi sneered, and it is fine to send it in. I know, since she doesn't love her niece, Fu Yi is naturally happy to fulfill it.

There was a memorial piled up in front of him like a hill, and Fu Yi didn't want to look at any of them. The candles beside him were flickering and flickering. He thought of Shen Zhiqiu. He didn't know what he was doing at this moment, maybe he was sitting alone. Playing chess by the window, or maybe looking through his medical books, Shen Zhiqiu is always calm, and occasionally stays with Fu Yu, even if the two of them are doing their own things, Fu Yu looks up at him, feeling nervous in his heart. feel peaceful.

Just as he was lost in thought, Jin Fu bowed in and reported to him, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Liu has sent bird's nest and lily porridge."

The shadow of Shen Zhiqiu in Fu Wei's mind was broken by Jin Fu's words, he waved his hand irritably, "Don't eat, let her go back."

"Yes." Seeing that Fu Wei was in a bad mood, Jin Fu hurriedly withdrew.

In the early morning of the next day, an urgent report was received that floods broke out in Hexi, and the disaster spread to two or three towns, with tens of thousands of people affected. The first time such a big disaster happened, he immediately said: "The top priority is disaster relief first, open the treasury, allocate funds to Hexi, the Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of Taichang Temple will take charge of this matter, the magistrate of Hexi and the prefects and county government assistants must take care of the disaster first. Time is controlled to appease the people so as not to cause riots."

"The minister takes the order!" The officials whose names were called hurriedly knelt to receive the order.

Then there was a series of discussions in the court about the relief measures for the flood. When the next court came, it was already time, and Fu Yi didn't care about lunch, so he asked Jin Fu to call Prince Rui Fu Chen into the palace.

Looking at this younger brother who hadn't shown his face for more than half a year, Fu Yi was quite helpless, "Did I call you here, did it disturb your cleanliness again?"

Prince Rui hurriedly laughed and said, "Don't dare, but I don't know why Brother Huang is so eager to recruit ministers?"

Fu Lie's face was solemn, and he told him about the flood in Hexi in detail, Prince Rui said he was sick for half a year and could not go to court, so he didn't know about it, after hearing Fu Lie's words, he said: "Brother Huang Arrange for people to go to the disaster relief, and ask the younger brother to do it, I don't want to go to the drudgery of disaster relief."

Fu Yudao: "I allocate funds to Hexi every year to build dams. In previous years, there was never any trouble in the flood season. This year's flood season is not too heavy. Why did the dam suddenly burst? I want you to go to Hexi to find out what's wrong with it."

Prince Rui was full of embarrassment, he scratched his head and pushed back and forth, "Brother Huang, you know me, I'm the best at eating, drinking and having fun, but I can't accomplish anything on official business, I'm afraid something bad will happen if I'm sent there."

Fu Yi smiled, "I know your ability, I also know that you don't want to pay attention to the government, but I can rest assured that you are the only one who will go to this matter. There are not many people in Beijing who can use it. How many other people rush out of Beijing at this time?" It will attract attention, you are used to being casual, no one will pay attention to your whereabouts, you just go out for a while, and help me with my errands by the way."

Fu Yi said so, Prince Rui couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only agree. The two discussed in the imperial study for a long time, and then Prince Rui quietly left the palace. Going out of Beijing is a later story.

Hexi has been busy with the flood for a few days, and Hexi hastened to send memorials to Beijing every day to report the disaster situation to Fu Yu. Fu Yu also locked himself in the imperial study to deal with business, and no one was seen. He originally wanted to go to Ganquan Palace to find Shen Zhiqiu , But when I got busy, I forgot the time.

This afternoon, he was finally able to rest for a while. After Jin Fu served him soothing tea, he reported on the situation in the harem these days, "Mr. Arrange her in Yuxiu Palace."

Only then did Fu Yi remember this matter. Zhaoyi's position was granted by the Queen Mother that day. Now that she has entered the palace, she can still save face, so she should go and have a look, so he said, "Got it, Let's go to Yuxiu Palace tonight."

Yuxiu Palace is decorated with carved railings and jade, and when Fu Yi went there, Zhou Yixin knelt down in the courtyard with a group of court ladies and eunuchs from Yuxiu Palace. She doesn't look like Zhou Yuan. I don't know if it's because of shyness or nervousness. She doesn't talk much. From when Fu Yi entered the door to when she was about to go to bed, she and Fu Yi didn't speak more than ten sentences. Fu Yi ignored her and went to bed alone to rest. , Zhou Yixin was stunned, and got into another bed without saying a word.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Fu Yi went to Ganquan Palace. Shen Zhiqiu just woke up, wearing a middle coat with loose black hair, standing in front of the bronze mirror, Chen Xiang dressed him and tied his hair.Fu Yi ordered Chen Xiang and the others to retreat, and went forward to tie Shen Zhiqiu's hair in person. The faint fragrance of orchids from Shen Zhiqiu's hair mixed with the fragrance of ink on his clothes, which only made Fu Yu's mind flutter. It's been so long since I saw him. I missed it so much, so I leaned over and sniffed it hard.Shen Zhiqiu blushed and turned his head away, before he could speak, Fu Yi first said, "I didn't touch her."

Shen Zhiqiu was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, Fu Yu's appearance was too cute, he naturally knew that Fu Yu would not touch her, not for anything else, just because she belonged to the Empress Dowager, he would stay away with respect.Shen Zhiqiu's smile made Fu Yi's heart flutter even more. Thinking of the beauty of that night, Fu Yi's heart swayed slightly. He took Shen Zhiqiu's lips, rubbed them against his lips, bit him like punishment, and said vaguely : "Do you dare to laugh at me?"

Shen Zhiqiu woke up early in the morning, bumped into such a fiery person, was half softened by his kiss, hurriedly pushed him to dodge and said: "You be careful, Empress Zhaoyi will sue you in front of the Queen Mother."

"If you want to sue, just sue." Fu Wei said, kissing all the way down, lingering on Shen Zhiqiu's neck and collarbone, hugging Shen Zhiqiu with one hand, stroking his waist with the other, and said emotionally, "Yesterday, I want to prevent people from getting into me. I didn’t sleep well all night, and I got up early today to go to court, and now I am very sleepy, Yunyu will accompany me to rest and go back to sleep.”

Shen Zhiqiu's breath of being seduced by him also became heavy, and the longing for so many days was aroused and it was hard to restrain. He held Fu Yi's shoulders with both hands, and was pressed down on the bed by Fu Yan, the bed curtain fluttered, Chen Xiang Standing outside the door and hearing the movement, blushing to prepare hot water and breakfast.

The author says:

Today's popular science: Empress Dowager Zhou had only one son in her life, which was Fu Wei's eldest brother, the former prince, Fu Hui, but he died when he was five years old.

Unexpectedly, Fu Yu turned out to be a role of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.She put so much effort into sending the Zhou family's girls into the palace because she wanted them to give birth to a prince so that she could make Fu Lie empty, or find a way to force Fu Lie to abdicate and continue to be in power by herself.
