The Empress of the Han Dynasty had a habit of standing at the highest point of the palace and overlooking everything inside and outside the palace.
Because this move not only allowed her to calm down and think about the problem.
More importantly, she can see people and things that she can't usually see.
Especially with the powerful tool of a telescope, she can see more things.
For example, which concubine specially stayed in a certain place and could pretend to have a chance encounter with the emperor.
Another example is which palace maid likes to be lazy.
Another example is which little yellow door always drags which little palace maid to which corner...
Too much.
Standing at the highest point of the palace, you can see so much.
This is the privilege of the emperor, but it is a pity that Adou, the emperor, would rather stay in the shade below and dig out the ice cheese with a spoon at this time.
He had no interest in climbing up to see the scenery - he was too tired to climb up.
Just when Zhang Xingcai was staring at a certain place with a thoughtful look on his face, Zhang Xingyi's voice suddenly came:
"Sister, sister!"
Zhang Xingcai turned his head slightly and saw his sister running over with her skirt in hand.
But seeing that her face was rosy, there seemed to be a gleaming light underneath her skin, like a delicate flower watered by rain and dew, exuding an astonishing beauty.
Zhang Xingcai took a deep breath and turned his head away from looking at her.
"What are you looking at, sister?"
Zhang Xingyi was in a very good mood and did not notice his sister's gaze.
"Look over there."
Zhang Xingcai pointed in a certain direction of the palace.
"What's there?"
"How about you see for yourself?"
The Empress of Han Dynasty said, handing over a telescope.
Zhang Xingyi did not doubt that he was there, so he took it and raised the telescope to look in the direction her sister said.
It didn't matter. She was almost frightened and threw away the treasure worth half a million yuan in her hand.
It turned out that she saw a familiar figure coming out of the Chancery through the telescope, preparing to leave the palace.
Madam You glanced at the Han Empress guiltily.
Unexpectedly, the Empress of Han Dynasty broke her luck as soon as she opened her mouth:
"What did Feng Mingwen say to you when he came into the palace?"
"no no……"
The right husband subconsciously wanted to deny it, but seeing the calm face of the Han Empress, she swallowed the following words and reorganized her words:
"It's nothing, just that he missed me so much that he couldn't help but come to the palace to see me."
The Empress of Han glanced at her.
"The other thing is that he wants me to give him some advice on how to handle the official affairs of the house."
The Empress of the Han Dynasty nodded slightly, this is the official business.
"What did you tell him?"
"Just let him transfer all these matters to the Chancellor."
When the Empress of the Han Dynasty heard this, she finally turned around and looked squarely at her sister:
"How did he say?"
"Of course I agreed." Mrs. Right raised her head proudly, "Sister, you underestimate my Alang too much. Is he the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation?"
"If not, how could the Prime Minister entrust all matters in Guanzhong to him? I have told you before, he always likes to be lazy and never likes to deal with government affairs."
The Empress of the Han Dynasty did not speak, but turned her head again and was silent for a while before speaking:
"So after he separated from you, he immediately went to the Chancellor's Desk. Was that the purpose? In this case, Feng Mingwen is indeed free and easy."
The right lady raised her head even higher: "That's not true! So, sister, from now on you should never judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."
Unable to see her sister like this, the Empress of Han couldn't help but mock:
"You haven't officially passed by yet, and you started to protect me? Are you saying that I use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman?"
"Well, let me ask you, the two of you have been in the side hall for so long and this is the only thing you said, right?"
Mrs. Right's heart trembled, she didn't dare to look at her sister, but she said forcefully:
"That's natural! Otherwise, what else can we say?"
Seeing her like this, the Empress of the Han Dynasty sneered:
"I believe it if he didn't say anything else, but if he did something else, I can't say for sure."
The right lady almost jumped up as if she had been stepped on a painful spot: "Sister, please stop talking nonsense. What can we do?"
The queen didn't even look at her, she just said calmly:
"Since you said that I judge a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart, then I will act according to the rules of a gentleman and have someone check to see if someone has committed the crime of defiling the palace. How about that?"
Even if Mrs. Right is a cunning fox who has become a spirit, her years of cultivation are far less than those of her sister!
The blush on her face had not subsided, but when her sister said this, her face suddenly became even more ashamed and she subconsciously exclaimed:
"don't want!"
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I realized that it was going to be worse!
She was horrified to find that the Empress of Han Dynasty turned her head to face her again, her eyes cold and cold.
As the queen's biological sister, how could she not understand her elder sister?
This conversation between the two sisters shows that my sister already knew everything that happened in the palace.
"Sister, I, I didn't..."
The right lady subconsciously resisted needlessly.
Zhang Xingcai didn't say anything, but turned his head again and looked into the distance. He didn't know whether he believed it or not.
There was a long silence between the two sisters, and then the queen spoke again:
"No one has faults. It's just that there are some mistakes, and it doesn't matter even if you make them. But there are some mistakes that you can't make, because if you make them, you will lose your life."
"In the same way, some people can make some mistakes, and some people can't make them. You are my sister, and as a sister, I naturally want to protect you."
"Feng Mingwen is my brother-in-law and a hero of the Han Dynasty. The emperor must be more tolerant to him than others."
"Even if the emperor allows him to stay in the palace and send palace maids to sleep with him, it won't matter. At worst, Feng Mansion will have a few more concubines in the future."
"The only thing I can't do is like you just now." The Empress of the Han Dynasty said, glaring at Madam Right sternly, "Forget it this time, but you must not do it again in the future. If not, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhang Xingyi breathed a sigh of relief quietly and said "oh" obediently.
But she thought about it and looked at her sister angrily:
"Sister, what did you mean by asking the palace maid to sleep with him just now?"
Are you my biological sister?
The Empress of the Han Dynasty glanced at Madam Right:
"How about you take out the master's secret technique that Feng Mingwen left for you and make a copy for the palace?"
"Why!" Mrs. Right was really scared now, "That was given to me by Alang! It was left for my children!"
Other things can be discussed, but not this one!
Even if my sister is the empress of Han Dynasty, it won’t work!
"There is no reason in the world to snatch someone else's family knowledge by force!"
Seeing Mrs. Right's bared teeth and claws, Queen Zhang glared at her:
"Don't want to? How many children will you have with him? Can you guarantee that A Mo can learn all the knowledge in Feng Mansion?"
Feng Mingwen can now be regarded as one of the emperor's most trusted ministers.
At the same time, he is also the most powerful upstart in the Han Dynasty.
Not to mention the Feng Mansion's wealth, knowledge, and connections in the court, the military, and local states and counties, even a century-old family may not be able to match him.
In addition to not having so many in-law relationships, there are not enough people.
However, it is precisely because the Feng family does not have the complicated in-law relationships of other families that the royal family trusts him more and more.
But the problem of insufficient people in the house is a real flaw.
If someone else had Feng Mingwen's status, there would already be hundreds of concubines of all kinds including Kabuki and dancers in his house.
Unfortunately, in his house, not to mention the concubines, even the quota of concubines granted by the imperial court was not met.
If it weren't for the fact that the wives and concubines in the house had not given birth to six children, the palace would have helped him to complete the concubines in the house.
To put it bluntly, the Queen is more concerned about the population of Feng Mansion than Madam You.
For the queen, her own sister is of course important.
But that's not as important as her own son - Mrs. Right's jump was also because of her son.
The late emperor had a prime minister, and the emperor had Feng Mingwen.
But... what about the prince's future assistants?
It is a mystery how much knowledge Feng Mingwen has in his belly.
From the time he left the mountain at the age of sixteen, he has driven out the Wei thieves and regained the old capital. He has managed the army, the people, the economy, and the temple affairs.
Even the Qianghu in Liangzhou, which had been causing trouble for hundreds of years, and the aristocratic families of the Later Han Dynasty who were helpless, fell into his hands.
This is enough to show that the skills he learned from his master are far from being as simple as he said.
The art of Yi Ya?
Whose Yi Ya art is so powerful?
I don’t expect the children of the Feng family to learn all his skills, but if Feng Mingwen has more children, and each child learns 30% to 40%, he can always select a few for the prince, right?
One or two is not too much, three or four is good, five or six is good...
That's right, it doesn't matter if they are children or not sons, whether they are boys or girls.
Anyway, the women from Feng Mansion are also very powerful.
Of course, if her sister could have more children with Feng Mingwen, she would be more than happy to see it happen.
The queen was unable to give birth to a child when she was in Jincheng. When she arrived in Hanzhong, the land of Longxing, she gave birth to the prince.
After giving birth to the prince, the man continued to achieve great successes and was expected to recover, so she had some kind of superstition in this regard:
Weiyang Palace was built by Emperor Gao. If Feng Mingwen really allowed his sister to conceive a child in Weiyang Palace this time, it would be God's arrangement.
Maybe this child can help the Han Dynasty regain its former prosperity in the future.
It was with some ulterior motive that the queen this time treated the two people's uncontrollable behavior in the palace with contempt.
On the other hand, if it was not God's arrangement, then if they dare to do it again in the future, don't blame her for being rude.
How does Mrs. Right know what her sister is thinking?
When she heard her sister's words, she felt that she was feeling unfair for her child:
"Alang once said that it would be good for the children in the family to learn three points of his knowledge. Because there are many things that cannot be done outside, and he has only seen them in his master's school."
"If you don't see the knowledge with your own eyes, hear it with your own ears, and experience it yourself, there is no way to understand the truth."
"So, sister, you said it's impossible for A Mo to finish his studies!"
"Even Amei, who has made so many things, can't fully understand the knowledge of objects that Alang taught her."
Upon hearing Madam Right's words, the Queen was furious and stabbed her head directly with her finger:
"You know you can't finish learning, so why not hurry up and have more children with him! If you have more children, you can learn one more point."
The Empress of the Han Dynasty was planning the future for the Prince of the Han Dynasty in the palace, but the Prince of Wu, Sun Deng, who was thousands of miles away, fell into grief and worry.
It turned out that the Xu family of Wu County sent someone to deliver news that Mrs. Xu was seriously ill.
Mrs. Xu was Sun Quan's second wife.
She was first married to Lu Shang from the Lu family in Wu County. Lu Shang died young and the Xu family had no children, so they returned to the Xu family to live alone.
Later, Sun Quan's first wife, Xie, died early, so Sun Quan, who was a general against the captives at the time, hired Xu as his wife and gave Sun Deng to her to raise.
The Xu family had no children, so they naturally loved Sun Deng who was still very young.
Unexpectedly, a few years later, Sun Quan felt that Xu was sexually jealous, so he sent her back to Wu County to live with Xu's family.
In contrast, the concubine Bushi (Bu Lianshi) was deeply favored by Sun Quan because of her beauty, docile character and non-jealous character.
If this kind of thing were placed in an ordinary family, it would be regarded as a fight for favor between wives and concubines at best.
But when it comes to the emperor's family, especially when the prince is involved, it's different.
After Sun Quan became emperor, he wanted to make Sun Deng the crown prince, but Sun Deng declined:
"If you want to establish a prince, you must first establish a queen. This means that you must first establish the foundation before you can practice morality."
Sun Quan asked: "Where is your mother?"
His original intention was to let Sun Deng recognize Bu as his mother.
Unexpectedly, Sun Deng replied: "My mother is in Wu County."
When Sun Quan heard this, he was speechless.
After all, Sun Deng's move was out of filial piety, so Sun Quan could not rebuke him, but Sun Quan did not want to make Xu his queen, so he remained silent.
However, although Sun Deng insisted on making the queen first, Sun Quan finally made him the prince first.
It's just that the position of queen was left vacant because the prince and ministers wanted to belong to the Xu family, and Sun Quan wanted to establish the Bu family. The two sides were in a stalemate.
Over the years, although Bu Shi was actually a queen and everyone in the palace called her queen, she had never been recognized by the prince and the ministers of the court.
That is to say, she has a good personality and is not angry because of it. She often sends people to send clothes to the prince.
After Sun Deng received the clothes as a reward from the Bu family, he often just accepted them and never wore them once.
On the contrary, whenever Mrs. Xu of Wu County sent someone to bring him clothes as his adoptive mother, he would put them on after taking a bath.
It can be seen from this that Sun Deng indeed regarded Xu as his own mother.
Now that he had received the news that Xu was seriously ill, how could he not be anxious?
He immediately sent someone to visit him, and at the same time he went to seek help from Sun Quan, crying and saying:
"The child was brought up by his mother in his early years. It is a great unfilial piety that he has not been able to take care of her over the years."
"Now I heard that my mother is seriously ill, her insides are shattered, and she is in a state of panic. I sincerely ask Your Majesty to allow me to go and serve my mother some decoction, as a sign of filial piety."
Although Sun Quan didn't like the Xu family, he was very satisfied with his well-known son.
When he heard the prince's request, instead of embarrassing him, he said:
"Filial piety is the most important thing. Since I am the emperor, how can I prevent my children from fulfilling their filial piety? I will send the palace doctor to accompany you."
Sun Deng heard this and quickly thanked him.
