Chapter 444 Zi Juan's Choice
"Zicuckoo, please sit down, I have something to tell you. If I remember correctly, you should be over five years old this year, right? You have been by my side since I got married to the queen, and now Twelve years have passed in the blink of an eye, time really flies by like a fleeting moment!"
After Zicuckoo saluted, Zhu Youjian said with a smile on his face.
In his eyes, although not stunning, Zicuckoo, who has a gentle temperament on her body, is as kind as his own sister.
When Zhu Youjian got married in the sixth year of Apocalypse, Zijuan, who lived in Hangzhou, was selected to serve the then Princess Xin in the palace.After Zhu Youjian ascended the throne as emperor, Zijuan entered the palace with him because he was deeply loved by Zhou Hou, and went from a personal maid to the current position of Zhengsi Gongzheng in the sixth-rank palace.
"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, I can just stand up and reply! I have been serving the queen since I was 13 years old, and I have been serving the queen for [-] years. This year, I am indeed twenty-five years old. Under the emperor's daily schedule, I can still remember it so clearly. I am honored by the servant." To the point! The emperor suddenly talked about the past, could it be that he has something to tell his slaves to do?"
Zicuckoo bowed again and replied respectfully.
In the past 12 years, Zhu Youjian and the young masters in Kunning Palace have mostly been taken care of by Zhou Hou and her. After many years of getting along day and night, in Zijuan's mind, the emperor and the queen are more like brothers and sisters-in-law. Normally, princes and Kunxing are like their nephews.
Today, as usual, Zijuan estimated the time when Zhu Youjian would return to the palace, and then went to the kitchen in the apse to prepare lunch for the emperor and several masters. Unexpectedly, just after making a few dishes, they were sent by the Queen of Zhou. Someone yelled over.
Although he didn't know what the emperor ordered today, Zijuan, who had an extremely gentle and kind personality and an extremely intelligent mind, with his keen intuition, detected a trace of abnormality in Zhu Youjian's solemn tone.
For a moment, she didn't think of the question that Zhu Youjian wanted to extend next, but she suddenly felt faintly uneasy deep in her heart.
"Zicuckoo, feeling that there are countless palace people in the past dynasties because of the tragic evening, I want to implement benevolent government in the palace, the first one is to give silver back to the palace people over the age of 25, lest they will not be able to live with their relatives for life. The pain of meeting!
In the past few days, you can put other things aside for the time being, and find out as soon as possible how many people agree with this item, and their names, places of origin, and year of entering the palace must be detailed.This matter is related to the fate of many palace people, you must do it with all your heart! "
Zhu Youjian didn't force Zicuckoo to sit down, but expressed his first plan in a gentle tone.
Except for Wang Chengen, Li Erxi, and Zhu Cihong's accompanying eunuchs, the rest of the eunuchs and guards in the Forbidden City are forbidden to approach the palace, so a series of measures against the palace people must be taken over by the female officials.
"Ah?! The emperor's words are serious?! The servant thanked the emperor for his benevolence on behalf of those lonely and helpless sisters! The servant kowtows to the emperor!"
Zi Juan didn't react to Zhu Youjian's words for a while. After being stunned for a while, she immediately knelt down on the ground in great joy and saluted Zhu Youjian.
With her insights and thinking, she never thought that such a broad-minded and open-minded emperor would make such an astonishing decision.
After all, to release people from the palace is to risk revealing the secrets of the palace ban. This is also one of the main reasons why most emperors in all dynasties have never released people from the palace since the Han Dynasty.
In history, only the imperial palaces of the Han Dynasty had examples of repatriation, and it has been unique since the Han Dynasty.
Another important reason is actually very simple: once the show girls are selected into the palace, it means they become the emperor's women.
Although the vast majority of court ladies will not be favored by the emperor throughout their lives, but as a man's selfish psychology, who would be willing to send a woman who is nominally his own out of the palace?
Since taking over the post of Gong Zhengsi, who is in charge of punishments five years ago, except for a very few palace people who made serious mistakes, the kind-hearted Zijuan has always taken the small mistakes that many young palace people made unintentionally. They imposed the slightest punishment and gave them more guidance afterward so that they would not offend the nobles in the palace.
As a woman, Zijuan always treats the palace people with a considerate attitude, whether they are old or young, and handles things fairly. Because of this, she has a high prestige among the palace people, and most of them The palace people all showed respect to her from the bottom of their hearts.
Of course she is very clear about the final outcome and fate of the palace people, but how could this kind of thing be changed by a little female official like her, so when Zhu Youjian made this decision, Zijuan was excited and even more sympathetic. Those old and frail palace people felt sincerely happy.
"You girl! Get up quickly. As the king of a country, the emperor should speak his mind. Zijuan, there are no outsiders in this palace today. I have something to ask you, so you must tell the truth!"
After Zhou Hou and Zhu Youjian looked at each other, she immediately understood her husband's intentions in her heart, and a sense of sadness suddenly came to her heart, and then Zhou Hou ordered with a forced smile.
A hint of hesitation suddenly appeared on Zicuckoo's face, which seemed to have a feeling in her heart, but it disappeared without a trace in an instant. She stood up slowly, her eyes full of determination.
"Zijuan, how old are you in this palace? After more than ten years of getting along day and night, I treat you like my own sister. Brother Lang, Kunxing and the others also treat you as an aunt.
Just now, you know what the emperor said, and I have decided that after the matter that the emperor instructed is completed, I will release you back home, so that you can honor your parents and reunite with your family!
If you want to get married, this palace is the master, no matter if it is Yangwuhou or Xuancheng uncle's mansion, it is no problem to be a concubine for the future father-in-law and uncle! "
After all, it was only just now that the decision was made. Zhou Hou, who was in a complicated mood, said at the end, her tone became low, and she looked at Zijuan with a strong sense of reluctance.
Zhu Youjian also looked at Zicuckoo standing not far away with a sad face.
Although he was reluctant to let Zijuan out of the palace from the bottom of his heart, but in this era when men and women are about to get married and have children at the age of fourteen or fifteen, 25 years old is already old.
The normal sexual desire between men and women is one of the five constant human relationships, and it is also one of human nature and one of the most basic rights. No one has the right to deprive or stop it.
Under the circumstances that he could not bring Zijuan into the palace, he could not turn a blind eye to it. It would be extremely cruel and inhumane, especially for a gentle and lovely woman like Zijuan.
People can only live once, and they should enjoy the most wonderful things at the right age.
"Empress, please forgive this servant for being rude! This servant implores the emperor and empress to take back their orders!
Letters from the servant's family often come to the palace. The parents of the servant are very healthy. The elder brother of the family is entrusted with the blessing of the emperor and the queen. He is called to work in the Hangzhou branch of the Four Seas Commercial Bank. The salary, the life of the family is already extremely affluent, and the younger brother has even entered the county school, all of which are in the honor of the emperor's family.
The letter sent by the servant's parents repeatedly told the servant to serve the nobles in the palace with all their heart, and never go against the wishes of the nobles. Everything in the family is fine, so there is no need to worry about it!In fact, even if the family members don't tell them, the slaves know it well!Although the slaves left home and entered the palace since childhood, the queen took care of the slaves more carefully than relatives!
Being able to serve the emperor's family is a blessing that this servant has cultivated for several lifetimes. To say something outrageous, in this servant's heart, the emperor and queen are like the slave's brothers and sisters. The servant has long regarded the palace as her own home. The reason why relatives are separated for no reason!
The servant girl has already thought about it countless times, she will stay in the palace for the rest of her life, and serve by the emperor's family until she is too old to move.The servant girl boldly begged the emperor to send a message that when the servant girl passes away in the future, the servant girl can bury the body of the servant girl near the imperial mausoleum, so that the servant girl can serve the emperor's family underground! "
Thanks for sometimes, flowers bloom and fall.As a digression, the loyalty of the ancients is incomprehensible to modern people, but it is real. Please don't look at the ancients with modern thinking, and don't laugh at this precious quality.
