Weng and his son-in-law made close guesses about the matter of conferring a concubine.
The Zhen family had previously been wiped out due to an overseas fleet.
The losses were extremely heavy.
The boat is not expensive.
The cost of building a lucky ship ranges from 500 to 800 taels.
One hundred ships are only 80,000 taels.
But!
First, it is not easy to build ships.
It even takes several years to process the wood to build a big ship.
Water control, oiling, painting, etc.
Many processes are extremely cumbersome and time-consuming.
If you want to save hundreds of ships, it will take more than ten years.
It may not be available at cost price.
Because most of the shipyards are custom-made, but priority must be given to supplying them to various navies.
Eight out of ten ships is barely enough, but hundreds of ships...
Unless the navy is emptied.
Otherwise, even if you buy it at a high price, you may not be able to get enough.
Secondly, there are the manpower on the ship.
This is not just a matter of skilled sailors, but the most loyal subordinates of the Zhen family.
Overnight, half of the capable people of the Zhen family disappeared at sea.
There are many of them, even personal papers for each room of the Zhen family.
Thirdly, there are direct losses and indirect losses of goods.
Direct loss is easy to understand, it is the money and goods lost together with the ship.
Indirect losses refer to related transactions.
Nowadays, the Zhen family's business related to sea trade has come to a standstill or semi-standstill.
This way.
The Zhen family only had a chance to plug the hole.
Almost annihilated.
Zhen Yingjia said that she wanted to make a comeback and was busy reorganizing the fleet.
In fact, it is just to appease people's hearts.
His real response was the letter to the old concubine.
Ask the old concubine for help to promote the daughter of the Zhen family.
He said that even if Liangliang is in the future, he can still leave a little more flesh and blood for the Zhen family.
This is not the first time such words have been said.
The old lady understood it at a glance.
Emperor Jingshun had no heirs, and many people wanted to achieve success in one fell swoop.
If you want to send someone to the palace, why not talk about flesh and blood.
That's all.
The old concubine also wanted to do her part for the family, but Emperor Jingshun didn't take the initiative.
This time, just like before, Emperor Jingshun talked about him.
Just find an excuse and leave.
When the Zhen family got the news, they felt like they were adding insult to injury.
That is extreme urgency!
Emperor Jingshun naturally knew everything about the Zhen family.
If it weren't for the old concubine's side, it wouldn't be a problem to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan.
Even, even if there is an old concubine.
Jingshun Imperial City has wanted to kill them several times and have a good year.
Not to mention promoting the daughter of the Zhen family, even if she is selected as a female historian to enter the palace, it will not work.
Of course, Emperor Jingshun would not refuse directly.
While avoiding her at most, she ignored the old concubine for a few more days.
Asking means being busy with government affairs.
But the emperor and the empress dowager never missed the opportunity to calm down at dawn and dusk.
Although the resolution was not subtle, it was hard to fault.
The Zhen family is somewhat aware of their own situation.
I have been trying my best to make amends over the years.
It's a pity, even if the overseas business is still there.
That little money is just a drop in the bucket.
Now that there is no overseas business, Zhen Yingjia even wants to start ruining it.
I'm not going to worry about any holes anymore.
At this time, the Zhen family was like a trapped animal.
Want to seize every opportunity to escape.
A few days ago, Zhen Yingjia saw the power of four bastards and eight princes working together.
That was the existence for which the cabinet suspended partisanship.
The Zhen family immediately wanted to join this alliance.
Speaking of which, the Zhen family is not only very close to the Jia family,
The second girl of the Zhen family is also the royal concubine of King Beijing.
It can be said that he has a good relationship with the four princes and eight princes.
Zhen Yingjia thought about it, but in the end she was afraid that something would happen to the Jia family.
Choose Beijing Wang as the breakthrough point.
Hope to join this new political alliance smoothly.
At the same time, Zhen Yingjia wrote another letter of appeal to the old concubine.
This time, I finally didn’t ask for women from the Zhen family to enter the palace again, I just wanted the old lady to give them a chance to live.
Having said that, how could the old lady not understand.
This is simply not something she can do.
So I still begged her to let a woman from the Zhen family enter the palace, looking for the only chance.
In fact, she had long understood that it would be difficult for a girl from the Zhen family to enter the palace.
The only chance is to conceive a dragon heir after entering the palace.
It's like ascending to heaven.
After receiving the petition letter, she decided to try her best one last time.
This is a woman's sense of responsibility to her natal family.
The old concubine only hopes to plead for the only time in her lifetime.
Can impress the son who became the emperor.
As soon as Emperor Jingshun arrived, the old concubine immediately said goodbye.
Approximately... no.
He is forcing this son.
He might as well make it clear that he wanted the emperor to give the Zhen family a way to survive.
Allowing girls from the Zhen family to enter the palace is also a way to open up new opportunities for the royal family.
As for whether you can conceive a dragon heir, it depends on whether the Zhen family has this blessing.
If she got pregnant, it would be a worry for her.
If she fails to conceive, it will be the fate of the Zhen family.
Such clear words forced Emperor Jingshun into a blind corner.
For a moment, it is neither progress nor retreat.
In any case, the person in front of him was none other than his biological mother after all.
It is human nature to want to do something for the family.
But he is the emperor and cannot ignore other factors.
At this time, Emperor Jingshun began to look around.
I wanted to find an excuse to leave again.
But he just happened to see the female history waiting on the side, shivering and having nowhere to hide.
She heard almost the entire conversation between mother and son.
This matter involves too much, and I am extremely scared.
This female historian is none other than Jia Yuanchun, the eldest daughter of the Jia family.
She is the personal female historian who serves the old concubine.
Emperor Jingshun naturally knew him.
When he saw her, Emperor Jingshun immediately thought of a brilliant idea.
If it goes well, it can silence the Zhen family.
It can also divide nobles such as the four kings and the eight princes.
By the way, he comforted Wang Ziteng and other important ministers on the border.
And the Shi family brothers who should take refuge,
Lin Ruhai, Li Shouzhong, Jia Yucun.
It’s literally killing a dozen birds with one stone!
Oh, there is also Feng Yuan.
A young fifth-grade man with both civil and military skills could barely win the emperor's attention.
Thinking of this, Emperor Jingshun made it clear to the old concubine.
There is no need to think about the Zhen family.
However, Yuanchun can be named concubine.
If there are children, it will be considered as a way for the Zhen family to survive.
In this way, the concubine's idea of letting herself spend Sanye was cleared, and the concubine's confidant came to the emperor's side.
There is no need to be limited to the women of the Zhen family.
When the old concubine heard this, she understood the emperor's attitude.
It's obvious that he doesn't want to let go of the Zhen family.
I don’t want to give even the slightest chance!
Then we can only place our hope in the emperor's promise and Yuanchun's protection.
It’s hard to say what the emperor’s promise is, but Yuanchun’s protection is a must!
So from the beginning of the day, the old concubine kept beating Yuanchun.
She almost had the Zhen family's safety engraved on her forehead.
Yuanchun was under great pressure and broke down crying several times.
More than a month later, the old concubine also received a reply from the Zhen family.
In the letter, Zhen Yingjia first thanked the old concubine for all the hard work she had done for the Zhen family.
He also expressed his belief in the old concubine's choice.
After all, compared to before.
It's also a chance to breathe.
Even if there was only one straw, Zhen Yingjia had to hurry up!
So, after Emperor Jingshun met the old concubine again.
Let Xia Bingzhong pass on oral instructions and knock on Jia's house.
This is what happened next.
At this time, in the Linjing Hall of Taiji Palace.
Emperor Jingshun and Xia Bingzhong were asking questions.
Linjing Hall is where the emperor studied and collected books. It is a rare private space.
Of course, there was no such thing as a royal study room in this era.
Emperor Jingshun summoned Jia Zheng here and said a lot of knocking words.
Seeing Jia Zheng trembling, he was already enjoying himself.
The two palaces of Ning and Rong came under his command, and the alliance of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes immediately collapsed.
Unfortunately.
Given Jia Zheng's political consciousness, most of them didn't understand.
After listening to Emperor Jingshun Yunshan Wuzhao's speech with trepidation.
He only understood what the old lady meant by this grace.
As for the rest, it was really difficult for him.
After leaving here, Jia Zheng hurriedly went to the East Palace again.
He said he was looking for the Supreme Emperor to express his gratitude.
At the same time, Jia's mother was asked to take her wife to meet the empress dowager and the old concubine to express her gratitude.
"Didn't you go to his house and beat him?"
Emperor Jingshun felt that his plan was perfect, so why didn't it achieve the effect?
He called Xia Bingzhong to review the matter.
"Your Majesty, this is such an unjust death for this old slave!"
Xia Bingzhong hurriedly knelt on the ground and said aggrievedly:
"When I arrived at Jia's house, I rode directly into the main hall without saying a word. After delivering the oral message, I didn't say a word or drank a sip of tea. I just rode back to the palace."
Emperor Jingshun frowned and murmured:
"Could it be that someone leaked the news?"
Xia Bingzhong raised his head with an aggrieved look and said:
"They asked people to look around, but no one in the palace revealed a word!"
Speaking of this, Xia Bingzhong suddenly showed some hesitation on his face.
I remembered that Feng Yibo had come to ask.
But of course he wouldn't say that, but hesitantly said:
"Your Majesty, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
Emperor Jingshun was furious and uttered one word impatiently:
"explain!"
"The Ning Rong Mansion has been in decline for a long time, and in these two generations, except for Jia Jing of the Ning Mansion, no one can take the lead."
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
When it comes to Jia's house, Xia Bingzhong talks eloquently, as if he has a lot of treasures about it.
"But Jia Jing and..."
When he mentioned the word "back then", he felt a little gaffe.
Although the Holy Emperor does not mind this matter, it is forbidden to be mentioned in the palace after all.
But at this time, he could only bite the bullet and continue:
"After getting involved in that matter, I haven't even returned to the mansion. I think this means that I want to use the earth as a prison to form a self-contained Xuanzhen Temple."
After saying this quickly, Xia Bingzhong expressed his speculation and said:
"So I guess..."
He paused for a moment before saying bitterly:
"Could it be the leftover waste that you don't even understand is beating?"
He seemed to feel that he had gone too far, and quickly added:
"Or maybe he was carried away by Long En, who knows."
After Xia Bingzhong finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head and knelt on the ground.
The flattery of the candidate was meaningless, and Emperor Jingshun filtered it directly.
But what was said before was very reasonable, and Emperor Jingshun could not help but believe it.
In my heart, I was a little angry at these wastes in the Jia family, and I said with emotion:
"If that's the case, wouldn't what Yu just said to Jia Zheng be nonsense?"
"Your Majesty, you have such eloquent words. He is blessed to have your advice!"
Xia Bingzhong trembled with fright, but he still had the courage to add:
"But Jia Zheng left our side and went directly to the East Palace."
Having said this, he swallowed and then whispered:
"Gulu! I think 80% of them don't understand what the Holy One means."
If you understand, you should not go to the Supreme Emperor to express gratitude, but should declare your political stance!
Just like Li Shouzhong.
"This bunch of trash!"
Emperor Jingshun slapped the book eucalyptus, which scared Xia Bingzhong to the ground.
He didn't want to be angered.
"I originally wanted to give them a chance."
Emperor Jingshun did not continue to be angry, he just sighed and said:
"Now it seems……"
Thinking about it, I thought it was a clever strategy that killed two birds with one stone.
Now it has failed at this link.
Emperor Jingshun couldn't help but shook his head, feeling a little angry.
"Trash is trash."
