The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 172 Conspiracy
Liang Shuren made great contributions to the affairs of Yangzhou, and was promoted to the prefect of Yangzhou by Emperor Wu of Zhou.

No one in the former dynasty or the harem cared about the promotion of Liang Zhaoyi's father to the prefect of Yangzhou.A Yangzhou prefect is nothing to the officials in the capital, but a petty official to the concubines in the harem.

For the high-ranking concubines in the harem, their father and brother have very high official positions and hold real power.A prefect of Yangzhou is nothing in front of their father and brother.

Furthermore, Liang Zhaoyi's father was promoted to the prefect of Yangzhou, and he could not pose any threat to the concubines in the harem, so naturally no one cared.

However, the people in the Kunde Palace were happy about this matter.

"It's a good thing for Mr. Liang to be promoted to the prefect. As long as Mr. Liang's prefect does a good job, he can be promoted in the future, and then Mr. Liang can be transferred to the capital." Yu Meiren is really happy for Liang Zhaoyi, "Wait for the prefect Liang When you come to the capital, sister, you will be able to meet Liang Taishou."

Liang Zhaoyi knew in her heart that her father would never be transferred to Beijing for employment.She smiled and said, "I hope to see my father as soon as possible, but it will be very difficult for my father to transfer to the capital. Besides, even if my father can be transferred to the capital in the future, I may not be able to see him."

Poppy thought of herself, and her expression became gloomy.

She is from the capital, and her father works in the capital, but she has never met her father for so many years.

One is because of her low status, she is not qualified to summon her parents and family to meet in the palace.The second reason is because my father's official position is low, and my mother doesn't have any orders, so I can't enter the palace to see her.

In the harem, only concubines above concubines are eligible to summon their parents and family members to meet in the palace.Only the fathers of concubines and above have high official positions, and the mothers have imperial orders.

For example, their own status is low, and their father's official position is low, so it is impossible to meet each other.

Poppy sighed faintly and said, "It seems that we will never be able to see our parents and family members in this lifetime."

Pan Cairen's eyes were red, holding back tears and said: "I think about my parents every day, even in my dreams. If I don't see my parents again, I will forget what my parents look like." Pan Cairen entered the palace later than Liang Zhaoyi and the others, but it has been six years since he entered the palace.

Poppy looked disappointed, and said in a heavy tone, "Me too."

Liang Zhaoyi didn't speak, but she missed her parents and family every day, just like Yu Meiren and the others.

Seeing Poppy and the others sad, the fifth princess didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hold Poppie's hand and say, "Concubine Mother, you still have Yaoyao and me."

Yu Meiren reached out her hand to touch the face of the fifth princess, and smiled gratifiedly: "Fortunately, we still have you and Yaoyao, otherwise we really don't know how to live in this palace."

Seeing that Pan Cairen still couldn't hold back, Liang Zhaoyi cried silently, quickly changed the subject and said, "The spring hunting will be in a few days, and we can go out to get some fresh air."

When it came to spring hunting, the expressions of Poppy Poppy and Pan Cairen immediately changed, and they became happy and looking forward to it.

"Yes, we can also go out for a few days to get some fresh air and see the outside world." If there is no Spring Hunt and Autumn Hunt, they will never be able to leave the palace in this life, and will always be locked in this gorgeous "cage". At that time, they will either die of illness or be suffocated to death.

Although Pan Cairen is usually afraid of meeting people, he is still very much looking forward to Spring Hunting.

"Fortunately, the first queen suggested that we concubines go to spring hunting and autumn hunting with us."

"The first queen really did a lot for us." Mentioning the first queen, Yu Meiren was very grateful.

"The first queen knew that our concubine's life was difficult, so she always thought about us." A queen like the first queen who is not jealous of her concubine, but always defends her concubine and thinks about her concubine, is really hard to find time.

Mei Yu lowered her voice and said, "If it's the empress, we, concubines with low status, will definitely not be allowed to participate in the spring hunting and autumn hunting..."

Before she finished speaking, Liang Zhaoyi interrupted her.

Liang Zhaoyi warned her: "You don't want to live anymore, how dare you say that about the empress."

Only then did Mei Yu realize that she had just said something she shouldn't have said.There was a flash of panic in her eyes, and she said quickly: "I just... I don't dare anymore."

Seeing that the poppies were frightened, Liang Zhaoyi hurriedly slowed down her tone: "The empress is in a bad mood these days, we have to be careful." A few days ago, the empress had a big quarrel with Duke Zhen. A lot of things were smashed.So far, the empress' anger has not dissipated. Apart from the eunuchs and maids in Zhaoyang Palace who were punished, many people in other palaces were also punished. "Besides, be careful that the walls have ears." Although the location of the Kunde Hall is remote, and no one came to the Kunde Hall to inquire about news, what they said might spread.

Yu Meiren and Pan Cairen nodded quickly: "Sister, we will be careful in the future."

Liang Zhaoyi nodded lightly, did not talk about this matter again, and continued to talk about Spring Hunting.

The location of the spring hunt is in the eastern suburbs of the capital, where there is a royal enclosure left over from the Zheng Dynasty.After the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, many things left over from the previous dynasty or the Zheng Dynasty were used, such as the imperial palace, the royal courtyard, and the royal enclosure.However, the royal enclosure came into use only after Emperor Wu of Zhou ascended the throne.

When the first emperor was in power, his health was not very good.At that time, there were a lot of things. Although he left most of the political affairs to Emperor Zhou Wu who was still the prince at that time, there were still many things that the emperor needed to deal with.

At that time, the late emperor was so busy that he had no time to go hunting, and the royal enclosure in the eastern suburbs remained idle.In the third year of Emperor Zhou Wu's accession to the throne, the royal enclosure in the eastern suburbs came in handy.

Spring hunting and autumn hunting were proposed by Song Dekang, and Emperor Wu of Zhou thought it would be good to restore spring hunting and autumn hunting, so he agreed.

Now, spring hunting is the most important activity in spring after spring plowing.

The spring hunt is held to get everyone active, after all, they have nested all winter.

Although spring hunting is said, spring hunting is not the same as autumn hunting.

Autumn hunting is specially held in autumn for the purpose of harvesting.And spring hunting is held in spring, not really for hunting, but for "play".Of course, hunting is also necessary, but the number of hunting will be limited, unlike the unlimited hunting in autumn hunting.

The spring hunting will be held for three days, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty can bring their families to participate.Concubines in the harem can also participate.Of course, men and women will be separated.

In the past few days, Zhao Yao has been counting the days on his fingers, just hoping that Spring Hunting will come sooner.

At noon, after school, Zhao Yao was not in a hurry to go back to Kunde Hall, nor was he in a hurry to go to Lanyuan Pavilion to find the Fourth Prince, but was called away by Mr. Xiao.

Mr. Xiao found arithmetic books from other places.Since knowing that Zhao Yao is interested in arithmetic and has a talent in arithmetic, I have been helping him find books on arithmetic.

Seeing that Mr. Xiao was so concerned about his liking for arithmetic, Zhao Yao was moved and grateful.

"Sir, thank you very much."

"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about it." Although Mr. Xiao's face was still expressionless, he looked at Zhao Yao with kind eyes. "After reading this book, you can tell me again."

Zhao Yao is also polite: "Okay."

"It's getting late, you should hurry back and have dinner."

"Sir, then I'll go first." Zhao Yao had just taken two steps when he suddenly remembered something and walked back to Mr. Xiao, "Sir, do you have any friends who are willing to be Mr.?"

"Mr.?" Mr. Xiao asked suspiciously, "Teach who?"

"It's like this. I have a friend who wants to ask a gentleman to go to the Yangshengtang to teach those orphans how to read." Zhao Yao said, "There are many children in the Yangshengtang who want to study, and my friend wants to find a more reliable gentleman to teach them. "

Mr. Xiao asked suspiciously, "Your friend?"

Zhao Yao looked at Mr. Xiao, hesitated for a while, then raised his right hand to his mouth, and whispered to Mr. Xiao: "Actually, it's my second uncle. He wants to find a reliable gentleman to teach the children in Yangshengtang. You also know that very few gentlemen are willing to go to Yangshengtang to teach orphans, and even if they go, they will not teach well."

"Your second uncle?" Mr. Xiao was startled, and immediately said with admiration, "Your second uncle is really a good person."

"Sir, don't worry, my second uncle will give you the monthly money."

Mr. Xiao said, "Let me ask for you."

"Sir, you must find someone you can trust." Zhao Yao scratched his head and said, "Also, can you hide that my second uncle hired someone?"

Mr. Xiao didn't ask Zhao Yao why he wanted to hide his second uncle.He nodded and said, "Okay."

"And ask your friends to help keep it secret."

"it is good."

Seeing that Mr. Xiao didn't ask him why he kept it secret, Zhao Yao was relieved in his heart.Sure enough, Mr. Xiao is reliable!

"Sir, thank you so much." Zhao Yao bowed gratefully to Mr. Xiao.

Mr. Xiao quickly helped Zhao Yao up: "Your Majesty Tenth is serious." After he finished speaking, Zhao Yao looked at him with shining eyes, and then he heard His Majesty say, "Sir, when I grow up King Feng went to the fief, do you want to teach in my fief?"

Mr. Xiao was taken aback by Zhao Yao's question, "Go to teach in your fief?"

Zhao Yao nodded again and again: "Well, when I grow up and become king, I would like to invite you to teach in my fief."

He said again, "Sir, it's still too early for me to grow up, you can think about it slowly."

Seeing that Zhao Yao invited him seriously, Mr. Xiao also said very seriously: "I will seriously consider it."

"Then sir, I'm leaving first, you should also go to have lunch quickly." After Zhao Yao saluted, he left Wende Hall bouncingly.

He didn't go back to Kunde Palace for lunch, but went directly to Lanyuan Pavilion to have dinner with the fourth prince.

Seeing that Zhao Yao was holding an arithmetic book in his hand, the fourth prince knew that it was Mr. Xiao who gave it to him.

"Brother Ten, your bow and arrows are ready, you can try them in the martial arts field this afternoon." The fourth prince specially asked someone to make bows and arrows for Zhao Yao.

When Zhao Yao heard what the fourth prince said, he showed a look of surprise on his face: "My bow and arrow are ready? Fourth brother, you made a bow and arrow for me?"

Wei Mian on the side said: "Your Highness Tenth, my Highness specially made bows and arrows for you."

"Fourth brother, there are bows and arrows in the palace, why did you specially make bows and arrows for me?" Zhao Yao asked puzzled.

"The bows and arrows in the palace are not specially made for you. You can use them for practice on weekdays, but hunting is not very good." The fourth prince explained.

"Is that so?" Zhao Yao never noticed this, after all, he was very comfortable with the bow and arrow he practiced on weekdays.

"Your Highness, when you hunt, you can not only shoot your prey well, but also prevent you from straining your shoulders." Wei Mian added, "If you hunt with the bow and arrow you usually practice, it will be easy to pull your shoulders." Hurt your shoulder."

Zhao Yao smiled sweetly at the fourth prince: "Thank you, fourth brother!"

Fourth brother is so kind, even this little thing is considered for him.

"Fourth brother, I will hunt a fox and give it to you at that time, as a thank you for giving me a bow and arrow." Zhao Yao said confidently.

The fourth prince smiled slightly: "Then I'll wait."

At this time, somewhere in the capital, a group of people are plotting something.

"Is the paddock ready?"

"It's been arranged, make sure nothing goes wrong."

"That's good."

"You can rest assured that this operation will be successful."

　Ask for a monthly pass!
