Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 359 Dugu Miaoyin with the demeanor of a virtuous empress

Because she had to take care of the injured prince, Dugu Miaoyin had to live in the East Palace and act nearby, but even if an adult man and woman lived in the same palace and did nothing, it would be unpleasant.

Therefore, after some discussion, the emperor and empress decided to hold a grand wedding for the prince after the Shangyuan Festival, and ordered Zong Zhengqing, King Hejian, and Li Xiaogong to lead Dianzhong Province to handle the matter.

Speaking of the money for the big wedding, it must be said that the emperor really bleeds this time, and all the expenses are borne by the inner government. Whatever it is, it is required to be the best. To sum it up, it is rich and self-willed.

Of course, the courtiers of Qingliu would definitely speak up for such extravagance and waste. However, the emperor's attitude this time was extremely decisive. He just refused to accept the advice of the courtiers and threw all their memorials into the cesspit Retting fat.

This move offended Wei Zheng, the leader of the officials. He knelt in front of the Chengqing Hall and stuck his neck to ask the emperor to accept his advice and comfort the officials who were insulted.

The emperor had known for a long time that this farmer would come to make trouble, so he prepared his speech early in the morning, and chatted with Wei Zheng about Li Chengqian's contributions to the country since the first year of Zhenguan.

What's the matter with spending some money? Do I have to get the consent of the ministers to spend money from my own government? Is the emperor a puppet?

Do you want me to let the prince be carried to the Taiji Palace, strip away all the clothes and let the courtiers see how many scars the prince has on his body for the country.

The courtiers who spoke out were all ungrateful villains. They usually received a lot of favors from the prince, and they were punished with minor punishments if they did something wrong, and they were rewarded heavily for meritorious deeds.

Aren't you, Wei Zheng, a typical example?Why do you disrespect your benefactor at this time?The crown prince is no longer a king. They can treat their father like this today. If the country is in trouble tomorrow, can the court still count on them?
After listening to these old accounts brought up by the emperor, Wei Zheng, who was always sharp-tongued, was a little speechless.Yes, no one can deny the prince's meritorious deeds, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is a model for the princes of all generations, but the old man is afraid that he will be extravagant once, and the emperor's relatives, courtiers and officials will follow suit.

Knowing that the emperor had quarreled with Wei Zheng, Li Chengqian couldn't help but cry. The emperor loved his son, and the ministers were afraid of wasting money. They can say that the public is justified, and the mother-in-law is right.

But it's so stiff, it's not good for the emperor and his own reputation, and it also blocks the way to admonish.Just when Li Chengqian was puzzled, Dugu Miaoyin gave him a good idea.

Sun Simiao has trained a lot of students in Cangwen Academy these years. These people usually travel from village to county to practice medicine. Why don't you recruit some of them to open a few medical clinics in Chang'an City in the name of the queen, and provide free medical services for the common people? Diagnosis and administration of medicines.

It can not only show the good deeds of the royal family to be close to the people, but also stop the mouths of those who say that the emperor does not care about the civilian officials, and all the expenses are subsidized by the East Palace.

Wonderful, this idea is second, Li Chengqian can't help but look at the beautiful woman standing beside him again.Not to mention, this girl is really a virtuous housemate, quietly letting the emperor and the courtiers have their own gains, satisfying everyone, but she has the demeanor of a queen mother.

After making up his mind, he called Heng Lian in and asked him to go to Lizheng Hall to say hello to the queen, and then he wrote a letter to Wei Zheng himself, expressing his comfort and asking him to coordinate. some of those ministers.

And told him that this measure of benefiting the whole people will be carried out forever as a national policy, and in the future such medical centers will spread all over the cities in Datang.

This is a good thing to accumulate virtue and do good deeds. There will definitely be many people scrambling to do it. Since Dugu Miaoyin gave such a good idea, Li Chengqian naturally has to express it.

Dugu Miaoyin's only worry now is her younger brother Dugu Rui. Since he arrived in Chang'an City, this kid has quickly become the number one figure in the dandy circle, leading his slaves around the market all day long.

This kid never bullies the weak, his biggest hobby is to trample on the dudes of various families, making all these young men cry for their fathers and mothers.For this royal family member, it is neither beating nor scolding. After all, he is the prince's brother-in-law. Who can get into trouble with the prince because of the children's nonsense.

Therefore, the bigwigs from various prefectures also came to the East Palace to complain every now and then, asking Li Chengqian to take care of this country's uncle, and Dugu Miaoyin also often sent heavy gifts to apologize to his younger brother.

There is also an interesting allusion to the term imperial relatives and relatives. In the second year of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor issued a family search list to find Dou Shaojun, the younger brother of Empress Dou who had been lost for ten years.

At this time, Shaojun was working at the home of the eldest son-in-law Shen Mengde, the county magistrate of Huashan. When he learned of this, he ran away to recognize his sister, and saved the county magistrate Shen Mengde with an official document to go to Beijing to recognize his relatives.

Shen Mengde didn't believe it, and put Shaojun and Xinghua, who shared weal and woe with him, into prison.Mrs. Shen Mengde decided that Shaojun was a nobleman because of the signing, so she asked her daughter Erfeng to seduce Shaojun and take Xinghua away.

Unexpectedly, by mistake, Erfeng hooked up with the wrong person, married the master in vain, and made many jokes.Shaojun and Xinghua are fleeing, and they are on their way to the capital for life.Xinghua girl disguises herself as a man, meets the queen, tells the truth, and the siblings finally meet again.

Dugu Miaoyin's parents left very early, and this younger brother can be said to be his darling, but after hearing the prince's proposal, she did not dare to agree easily.

So, he frowned and said: "Your Highness, that kid seems to be naughty, if such an important errand is entrusted to him, what can we do if he fails!"

Although she very much hoped that her younger brother would be successful, she was really afraid that the unreliable younger brother would make something wrong. Once she made the basket bigger, wouldn't that put the prince in a dilemma?

Li Chengqian disagreed with Dugu Miaoyin's opinion. Although this kid was a guy who ate, drank, prostituted and gambled in Luoyang, he also had his own style and bottom line.

Especially after he became a member of the emperor and came to Chang'an, he specially selected the big ones to attack, just like what he said himself, what kind of skill is bullying the people, if you want to fight, you can hit someone with a background, otherwise you will be too embarrassing for your brother-in-law.Not long ago, this kid beat up Cui Renshi's son in Wanhualou. The beating was quite serious, and he almost killed Cui Ren's son.

So he waved his hand, and Wen Sheng said, "Miaoyin, Gu knows what you mean. From Gu's point of view, this kid is not bad in nature. What he lacks is the training of good people. It's good to have a few sensible people in the East Palace to help him later." up.

Besides, the young eagle will grow up, and you and I will grow old too. We can't protect him forever, we should let him do something serious. "

"Okay, I must give this bastard a good lesson when I look back, so that he will always remember His Highness's grace!"

"Hey, don't say that, you and I both win and lose, why are you so polite!"
