Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 268
After dinner, Emperor Jing accompanied Su Qingyan for a walk in Guanju Palace to digest food. Although it was still cold today, the two of them wore more clothes and got closer, so the cold became not cold.

The two of them were taking a walk, and they were in Guanju Palace, so naturally they didn't need anyone to follow, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zitan pulled Zi Yan to his room.

"Sister Zitan, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Zitan's face, Zi Yan asked suspiciously.

"Zi Yan, do you still remember Ning Xiang?" Zi Tan spoke directly without making any detours, staring at Zi Yan with a serious face.

When she said this, Zi Yan's expression changed suddenly, she looked at Zi Tan in a panic, and opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

"You should remember Ning Xiang. After all, it's not long after all. You know what happened to Ning Xiang. Zi Yan, the master has taken you well, so don't do anything stupid."

Staring at Zi Yan, Zi Tan spoke again, she was very worried that Zi Yan would not listen to her own words, and thus make a wrong decision.

"Sister Zitan, I don't want to do anything, I just envy, I envy that the master is so favored by the emperor, so, I...I..."

Lowering her head, Zi Yan finally spoke, looking at her appearance, Zi Tan couldn't help reaching out to support her shoulder.

"Ziyan, don't think about things you shouldn't think about. The master will have today, and it doesn't happen overnight. If you want to survive, just do things with peace of mind. Otherwise, Ningxiang will be your end. "

In order to make Zi Yan wake up, Zi Tan had to take heavy medicine, after hearing her finished speaking, Zi Yan couldn't help shivering.

"Sister Zitan, will you tell Master?" After a long time, Ziyan spoke again, with fear in her tone.

"I won't tell the master, because I don't want the master to be unhappy because of you, but you remember, if you can't put your mind away, you don't need me to tell the master, someone will take care of you."

The person that Zitan was talking about was naturally Nanny Jin, and she had always had a good relationship with Nanny Jin, so she was well aware of Nanny Jin's methods.

If Nanny Jin found out about Zi Yan's thoughts, she would definitely not be well received. In the harem, it was too easy for a little maid to disappear without a sound.

"Thank you sister Zitan, I remember what you said." Her voice was choked with sobs, and Zi Yan felt that she was very sad at this moment.

"Don't think too much, just stay with the master. The master will not treat you badly. When you reach the age, if you want to leave the palace, the master will reward you with a generous dowry and let you go out of the palace." .”

Ziyan is younger than Zitan, although Zitan has never experienced what she has experienced, but in Zitan's heart, she can understand her.

After hearing Zitan finished speaking, Zi Yan nodded, knowing that she must be in a bad mood at this time, Zitan simply let her rest in her room.

After a few instructions, Zitan left the room, and as soon as she left the room, she saw Jin Nai walking towards this side.

"Why are you alone, Ziyan?" Seeing Zitan, Jin Momo asked with a smile.

Hearing Jin Momo suddenly ask about Zi Yan, Zi Tan's heart couldn't help but twitch, in order not to let Jin Momo see anything, Zi Tan tried to keep calm on his face.

"Zi Yan is not feeling well, maybe she has caught a cold, I let her go to rest first, if there is anything for the nanny, just order me around."

Smiling and speaking, Zitan responded to Jin Nanny's words, Jin Nanny did not doubt that he was there, and nodded at her, "That's fine, come and help me."

Zi Tan couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when Jin Momo said so, she quickly responded, and then followed behind Jin Momo to help her survive.

After walking in Guanju Palace for quite a while, Emperor Jing accompanied Su Qingyan back to the main hall, ordered someone to prepare hot water, the two of them bathed and changed their clothes, and then lay down on the bed again.

Although Emperor Jing had talked to Su Qingyan about the evening, after all, he was too tired during this time, so he didn't do anything special, just put his arms around Su Qingyan, and chatted with her in a gentle tone.

"Tomorrow morning, the imperial decree will be issued. At that time, I'm afraid I will have to work for a long time."

"Even if your majesty is busy, remember your body. Don't tire yourself out. If you don't have time to come, then order someone to come to Guanju Palace to summon my concubine. I will go to Longgan Palace to accompany you."

After listening to Emperor Jing's words, Su Qingyan smiled and said, she could understand Emperor Jing's hard work, so Su Qingyan was not angry that he didn't have time to accompany her.

The emperor doesn't have time to accompany her, but she has a lot of time, if the emperor can't come, then she just goes.

"Don't worry." Nodding his head, Emperor Jing responded with a smile. Thinking of the tough battle to be fought in court tomorrow, Emperor Jing kissed Su Qingyan on the forehead, "Go to sleep."

Responding softly, Su Qingyan leaned into Emperor Jing's arms, closed her eyes, and smiled contentedly on her lips.

"Your Majesty, the current system in the court is very complete. There is really no way to implement the New Deal. Not to mention anything else. Last year, both the south and the north were hit by natural disasters. Now that the treasury is empty, it is really inappropriate to implement the New Deal!"

As Emperor Jing had expected, as soon as the imperial decree was issued the next day, the ministers headed by Xiao Peng immediately expressed strong opposition.

"Lord Xue's words are wrong. Although the national treasury is empty, the new policy that the emperor said has nothing to do with the national treasury. Why do you need the court to spend money to choose available pillars from the people?"

Looking at the opponents, Su Zhiyuan said loudly, in his opinion, the New Deal must be implemented, so he absolutely supports Emperor Jing.

"Master Su, although your words are simple, the selection of candidates is like a draft. Money is needed everywhere. How can this not have much to do with the treasury?"

As soon as Su Zhiyuan finished speaking, someone who objected immediately spoke again. After hearing the other party's words, Su Zhiyuan shook his head involuntarily.

"Lord Feng, drafting is not the same thing as talent selection. Drafting is to expand the emperor's harem, and the women selected are all for the emperor's benefit. Their contributions are unmatched by us ministers." of."

"That's why, during the draft, the imperial court has to spend a lot of money to draft for the emperor. After all, among the selected women, there is a chance that any of the selected women will give birth to a prince who can inherit the throne for the emperor."

"The selection of talents is an opportunity for the court to give those talented people a chance to serve the emperor and honor their ancestors."

"How can the court pay for such a thing? They should pay for it themselves. Maybe those rich people will pay to help fill the treasury in order to make things go smoothly. Why do you want to stop such a good thing? ?”

Su Zhiyuan's words immediately silenced many ministers. After all, according to what he said, the implementation of this new system will be of great benefit to the imperial court.

Since it is such a beneficial thing, whoever comes to stop it, won't it be a problem with the emperor and the whole country?

　I don't know what's going on, suddenly the world is spinning, and then my head is buzzing, the whole person is groggy, the eyes are dark, the whole body is weak, and the forehead is full of cold sweat. If I didn't just sit, I would have fainted on the ground. If there are only four shifts today, it must be because Meng hasn't recovered yet. When Meng recovers, he will make up for it.
