This is probably the most solid sleep Liu Chengyou has had in the past two months. The young man is full of energy and recovers quickly after a night. However, when he wakes up in the morning, a vigorous fight out of excitement consumes a lot of energy. , but the spirit became even more exciting.
More than usual, Liu Chengyou was obviously in love with the bed. When he left the palace, it was already bright. The Vice Empress was unable to walk, so he asked her to rest. Liu Chengyou felt refreshed and went to the Renming Hall to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager Li.
Yaohua Hall is where the noble concubine Gao Huaijin lives.
Gao had the habit of doing morning exercises. After finishing her sword dance, she returned indoors. Her attractive figure was wrapped in a tight-fitting military uniform. Her plump figure seemed to be steaming with some heat, giving her a seductive charm. But soon, after purification, a loose plain robe covered this beautiful jade body.
Under the service of the maids, she put away her clothes and looked at the person in the mirror in front of the bronze mirror. She asked calmly: "It's already the time of Xu, and the officials are still going to the queen?"
"Exactly, I didn't leave until the beginning of the morning." The maid's tone seemed to be anxious for the Gao family: "On weekdays, officials rarely have a harem, but when they returned to court, they were occupied by the queen. ....”
"She is a queen, a saint, and a legitimate wife. It's understandable." Mrs. Gao waved her hand.
"Madam, this time it is the Queen who goes to Chui Gong Hall in person. In my opinion, Madam should go to Chui Gong Hall more often on weekdays!"
Mr. Gao didn't answer. He thought about it for a while and asked, "Where are the officials?"
"I have already left the palace and headed to Renming Palace to pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"The Queen is not accompanying you?"
"Somehow, there is no going together."
However, Mrs. Gao was thoughtful, probably recalling Liu Chengyou's strength on the bed. She was not ashamed and sighed openly: "I think I can't bear the rain and dew's favor..."
Picking up a piece of light red lip paper, she pursed her jade lips lightly, and after applying lipstick, she stood up and ordered: "Let's go to Renming Hall too!"
In the palace, overt and covert fighting is always inevitable, and it is the same when it comes to Liu Chengyou. Even though in the Han Palace today, only the empress and the concubine were favored, the trouble for them was not small at all. After all, a triangle cannot be as stable as two points.
Both of them are the daughters of generals, and they are both extraordinary women, not inferior to men. Although the Gao family is remarried, in this era, it is not completely restricted by "ethics", so it is not a big disadvantage. His father and brother, Gao Xingzhou, were both crowned kings. Gao Huaide was summoned to serve in the Forbidden Army, and he was obviously more important to Liu Chengyou.
Therefore, although Dafu has the title of queen, she does not have much advantage when facing Gao Huaijin. And on weekdays, Liu Chengyou is also quite fond of Mr. Gao. He is wet with rain and dew, and he especially likes his dashing and handsome appearance and toned figure...
Fortunately, neither woman was stupid. Although they fought, they were always within certain limits and did not bother Liu Chengyou. Liu Chengyou, on the other hand, didn't pay much attention to the troubles between women. In his opinion, his harem was fairly peaceful.
On Liu Chengyou's side, he was having breakfast with the Queen Mother, and when he saw Mrs. Gao coming to express her filial piety, he was quite satisfied with her attitude. Noticing his attitude and plump figure, Liu Chengyou unconsciously thought that next time, he should go to Yaohua Palace for a walk.
"Sanlang!"
After leaving Renming Hall, I bumped into Emperor Liu Chengxun around the corner.
"I've met an official." His brisk steps immediately slowed down, and the naughty smile on his face faded. He stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
"No courtesy!" It was rare to see this outgoing boy so serious. Liu Chengyou was a little surprised and glanced at him: "You and I, brothers, don't have to be so restrained."
Hearing this, Liu Chengxun immediately straightened up and paid attention to the emperor's expression. His smart eyes wandered twice, and his wandering look was quite interesting.
Seeing the hesitation on his young face, Liu Chengyou became interested: "What, is there something wrong?"
After hearing the question, Liu Chengxun immediately became energetic and stepped forward, with a bit of shyness on his handsome face: "Second brother, you see I am too old and I am still walking in the harem. It is not etiquette and it is very inconvenient... "
"Want to go out to the palace?" Liu Chengyou looked at him.
He nodded subconsciously and quickly shook his head. After scratching his head, Liu Chengxun chuckled: "Second brother, you are still so wise!"
Liu Chengyou's expression gradually became solemn, and he glanced at the emperor's younger brother, thinking about it in his mind. Liu Chengxun is already fifteen years old. He is indeed not young, but there is no need to force him to leave the palace.
He looked back at Renmingdian and said to him: "As long as mother agrees!"
Hearing this, Liu Chengxun's little face suddenly turned bitter, and he pursed his lips: "You agreed, wouldn't my mother agree?"
"Mom agreed, I agree!" Amused by his appearance, Liu Chengyou waved his hand and said, "Let's go into the palace!"
There was an edict a long time ago, so there is no need to go to court early today. Of course, since Liu Chengyou ascended the throne, he has held only a few court meetings. Except for a few major court meetings, the prime ministers and ministers were basically summoned to discuss matters in the imperial palace.
Originally, Liu Chengyou wanted to summon Zhao Shangjiao and Tao Guwen to inquire about the selection of candidates he was concerned about.
However, before the call was announced, someone had already taken the initiative to come to see him, Li Shaoyou, the military envoy. As an honorable minister of the emperor and in charge of minions, he had already been here last night, but Liu Chengyou was too busy to get away. Later, the queen came again, and she had the good sense not to disturb Liu Chengyou's married life.
"sit down!"
"Thank you, Guanjia."
"I was planning to summon you. Now that you're here, let's talk about the details of the government and the public in Tokyo during the two months since I've been on the expedition?" Looking at his cousin, Liu Chengyou asked directly.
"I have already reported the previous matter to the officials. During the period when Your Majesty left the capital, the Queen Mother suppressed it, and everything was relatively stable..."
"Just tell me the problem!"
After hearing the question, Li Shaoyou paused, thought for a while, and then changed his words: "Xianggong Dou, Xianggong Li and Xianggong Zhao have close contacts. In the political hall, they often argue with Wang Xianggong of the third division."
With a frown on his face, Liu Chengyou said calmly: "These old ministers of Shi Jin are joining forces quite quickly!"
Today, in the Han Dynasty, Feng Dao, Li Tao, Dou Zhengu, and Zhao Ying are all in the same position. These four are all former ministers of Shi Jin. Liu Chengyou used them to barely achieve the goal of suppressing Hedong Yuanchen and maintaining balance in the court.
But since Su Fengji was demoted, Yang Bin suppressed his power, and Su Yugui did nothing, Liu Chengyou discovered that the voice of the former minister seemed to have become louder again. It was fine before, but now it seems a little unbalanced. Of course, in Liu Chengyou's eyes, the most unbalanced thing is that there is no "imperialist party".
He nodded and looked at Li Shaoyou again.
Busily, Li Shaoyou said: "The dispute between Shang Dushuai and Privy Councilor Guo must be known to the officials. In addition, Shang Hongqian has recently been in private contact with many Forbidden Army generals and promoted many people... ..”
"Do you know what they are discussing? Can there be any changes in the army?" Liu Chengyou's expression immediately became serious.
"Nothing has happened yet. We only know that they were having a party and having fun. As for the rest, it remains to be verified!" Li Shaoyou gave Shang Hongqian eye drops with an impartial attitude.
"Do you have a list?"
"I have recorded it in the book."
After thinking for a while, Liu Chengyou nodded very lightly, changed the subject and asked, "Have there been any changes among Yang Bin's followers?"
"Your Majesty, there is nothing unusual?"
Liu Chengyou frowned, seeming a little disappointed. After exhaling heavily, Liu Chengyou said again: "What about the others?"
Judging from the emperor's expression, it can be seen that his goal has probably been achieved. Li Shaoyou's mouth curled up slightly, and he quickly calmed down and reported other things.
The Privy Council ordered Nie Wenjin to bully his subordinates; the generals in the capital violated the law; the tea and wine envoy Guo Yunming resold imperial tea and imperial wine; and even Li Ye, Li Shaoyou's brother-in-law, the envoy of Xuanhui Nanyuan, secretly abducted the king of Wuyue Qian Hongchujin As a token of loyalty, I sold it decisively...
"It's really a lot!" Liu Chengyou's tone was slightly cold.
"In addition, not long ago, two monks entered the palace to preach Buddhism to the Queen Mother!" Li Shaoyou reported again.
Liu Chengyou narrowed his eyes with a horrifying look. His reaction was bigger than before when he heard the news: "Ha! Where is the monk?"
Li Shaoyou buried his head and said: "Daxiangguo Temple!"
