Ningxiang smiled and said: "If your husband insists on giving me a kiss, it's not impossible. Don't you often say that although a man has gold at his knees, only those who work with him are enemies.
Falling under the pomegranate skirt of a stunning beauty is just romantic, but not shameful. "
"Humph, you didn't listen to a word of my good words, but you remembered all these nonsense. Hurry up and tell me your method. If it doesn't work, just watch how I punish you with family law. "
"My plan was actually revealed just now. Didn't your husband hear it?"
Zhu Qiyu shook his head innocently: "What did you say? Only peers are enemies?"
"The sage of your husband can be revealed in just one thing. In addition to his legitimate son, Sun Jizong also had two concubines and a concubine. The concubines must be enemies.
If, according to my opinion, Empress Dowager Sun ordered Sun Lian's wife to take Sun Ming into the palace for a short stay, Sun Jizong would definitely be worried.
Even if Sun Jizong is relieved, Sun Zhong will be wary.
Therefore, Sun Zhong and Sun Jizong would definitely arrange for Sun Jizong's daughter to accompany them into the palace.
The husband only had to order Gao Ping to leak some information to Sun Jizong's daughter through the eunuch.
Sun Jizong's daughter and Sun Jizong's two concubines were both born from the same mother. With such a God-given opportunity, wouldn't they want to take advantage of the situation and kill off the direct lineage?
When the time comes, I borrow my husband's hand to kill Sun Jizong's legitimate son. This is the killing with a borrowed knife in the Thirty-Six Strategies. Wouldn't it be wonderful! "
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "That's right. No wonder you girl dares to call yourself me. If I throw you into the Forbidden City and live for three or two months, it might not be a big problem."
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "Husband, don't be deceived by Ningxiang's innocent appearance. Think about it, in your words, Ningxiang is the favorite of our family.
The group favorite, that is, everyone likes her and dotes on her.
Especially among women, how can one become a group favorite without two brushes?
This girl is very clever. She usually looks harmless to humans and animals, but in fact she is just too lazy and knows how to enjoy happiness. "
Zhu Qiyu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "My concubine is so right, I see that all of you sisters are hiding your secrets. Now I feel more and more that I am not playing with you, but you are training me.
Hey, I really can’t live in this messed up world. "
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "My husband studies the ways of being a wife every day, and we sisters study the ways of being a husband every day. We are just each other."
Zhu Qiyu looked helpless, Su Xi came to the rescue and said: "Husband, the pen and ink are ready."
Zhu Qiyu hurriedly got off the slope, read through the memorial he had received in the morning, and then read: "On the recommendation of Hou Jingzhi, the right minister of the Ministry of War, Jia Quan, the governor of Dali, was promoted to be the political envoy to the left of Yunnan.
On the recommendation of Xu Youzhen, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, Yuan Jie, Peng Yi and Lin E were selected as members of the Zhongshu Sheshe to join the cabinet to assist in the management of machine affairs.
Also, Geng Jiuchou was promoted to the position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
That's it for today. It seems that my adjustments to personnel have been discovered by the thoughtful ministers. These ministers have already started rushing to recommend him. "
Su Xi smiled and said: "Not to mention the ministers, even I have noticed that my husband is concentrating on adjusting the ministers and ministers of the six departments, as well as the local officials of Yunnan and Guangxi.
The adjustment of officials in the six ministries was to promote reform; the adjustment of officials in Yunnan and Guangxi was to prepare for the recovery of Cochin. "
Zhu Qiyu smiled helplessly and said: "Okay, okay, you are all my palace. Our family has only one Lingyu Palace, and I will divide it into five parts for you: east, west, south, north and center.
One of you is the Empress of the East Palace, one is the Empress of the West Palace, one is the Empress of the South Palace, one is the Empress of the North Palace, and the other is the Empress of the Middle Palace.
Now you are satisfied. "
…
At noon, Zhu Qizhen was eating while listening to Chen Xiang talk about today's political affairs.
After hearing that there was another promotion of officials, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but frowned.
No matter how slow Zhu Qizhen is, he has now realized that this personnel adjustment is too frequent.
Chen Xiang saw his prince frowning and quickly explained: "Since the emperor ascended the throne, several ministers' positions have been vacant because there are no suitable candidates.
Moreover, most of the ministries had one minister and two ministers, so the emperor was not in a hurry to complete the list of ministers.
Nowadays, it is normal for the emperor to step up his efforts to adjust the position of ministers. "
Zhu Qizhen shook his head: "My brother is not only adjusting the six departments, but also adjusting local officials. Especially Yunnan and Guangxi, they are preparing for war.
Especially Jia Quan, who was appointed today. I know that he is extremely capable and has won the hearts of the people.
When Wang Ji conquered Luchuan, Jia Quan, the prefect of Dali, was responsible for collecting food and wages for the army, so as not to disturb the people too much, but also to provide timely supplies to the army.
Later, Wang Ji recommended him, and I ordered Jia Quan to be promoted to Yunnan Zuo Shenzhen, and he was still the magistrate of Dali.
Now that Hou Jing recommends Jia Quan again, it is probably Wang Ji who is behind it.
It's just that his younger brother really gave Wang Ji face and directly promoted Jia Quan to the post of Yunnan Zuo Buzong Envoy. "
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "Maybe the emperor didn't think of Wang Ji."
Zhu Qizhen waved his hand: "Hurry up, stick some hair on your brother's body. He is just like a monkey. How could he not know?
The only reasonable explanation is that Wang Ji also surrendered.
Wang Ji, Chen Mao, Liang Yue, Fang Ying, all of them betrayed me.
Of course, they themselves would not admit that this was betrayal.
In their own words, whoever sits on the dragon throne, wears a dragon robe, and holds a jade seal is the one they will be loyal to. It is a matter of course and beyond reproach. "
Chen Xiang replied: "In fact, most civil and military officials are loyal to the emperor in their hearts. It's just that the emperor is too powerful and no one dares to stand up.
Now that the emperor is seriously ill, people's hearts will surely change over time. "
Zhu Qizhen shook his head: "It's useless to say that. We still have to find a way to transfer Shi Heng, Sun Boring, and Liu Yongcheng back to Beijing. Only these depressed people can be loyal to me."
Chen Xiang hurriedly flattered: "The emperor is still a wise man."
"Stop flattering, what's going on in the palace today?"
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Huichang took his uncles from the Great Kingdom and the Second Kingdom to meet the Queen Mother yesterday. For some reason, the Marquis of Huichang left angrily not long after.
Uncle Daguo and Uncle Erguo chatted with the Queen Mother for more than an hour before leaving.
This morning, Uncle Daguo's daughter-in-law and daughter took Sun Ming into the palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother. "
"The Marquis of Huichang left angrily? Everyone in the palace along the way saw that the Marquis of Huichang was angry?"
Chen Xiang nodded very confidently: "That's right. According to the palace people, when the Marquis of Huichang came out of Yinghua Palace, his face was red with anger, and he was really angry at first sight."
Zhu Qizhen shook his head: "That's not right. The Marquis of Huichang is eighty-four this year, and he is the best at maintaining health. The thing he likes to say most on weekdays is that being angry is harmful to the body.
They really had a quarrel in the Queen Mother's palace, there is no doubt about it.
And along the way, the palace people could see the angry face of the Marquis of Huichang. I am afraid that the Marquis of Huichang deliberately let people see it. "
"Deliberately letting people see you?"
Chen Xiang couldn't keep up with his thinking.
Zhu Qizhen nodded: "The Marquis of Huichang is stating his position, I am afraid he wants to draw a clear line with the Queen Mother."
Chen Xiang replied curiously: "That's not right. Since you want to draw a clear line with the Queen Mother, why did the Marquis of Huichang let his great-grandson into the palace again today?"
"There is no doubt about this. There is internal strife in the Sun family. A while ago, the Marquis of Huichang went to the western suburbs to meet my precious brother. Maybe they reached some secret deal."
When Chen Xiang heard this, he was also amazed that his own prince had such vicious eyes.
Under Chen Xiang's admiring eyes, Zhu Qizhen was a little confused again, and said calmly: "It's nothing, remember, all palace struggles, no matter how complicated they are, seem to be thousands of things.
In fact, it boils down to two words: stand in line.
Standing in line is the key to everything.
Wang Ji and Chen Mao were standing in line, Wei Guogong and Wu Dinghou were standing in line, as were Huichang Hou and other members of the Sun family.
It's just that everyone in the Sun family has differences in their sides, that's all. "
Chen Xiang quickly praised: "Your Majesty is a wise man. Listening to His Majesty's words is better than a slave studying sages' books for ten years."
Zhu Qizhen nodded. He liked Chen Xiang, a naive personal eunuch who could flatter and make people happy.
It's just that Zhu Qizhen has become suspicious of Chen Xiang recently.
To be more precise, Zhu Qizhen became suspicious of everyone except Xing'an.
But suspicion is suspicion, and today's political situation is becoming increasingly tense.
At this time, Nangong must not have internal strife, at least not openly, at least not let outsiders see it.
So Zhu Qizhen had no choice but to remain calm and test secretly: "I asked you to check the rumors about your life experience. What did you find out?"
