Spring is warm and fragrant

Chapter 151

Lu Zhan agreed with his daughter to enter the palace, but before Emperor Ming Hui issued the edict, he still had to say hello to the queen.

In the second half of the day, after finishing his political affairs, Ming Huidi moved to Zhaoyang Palace.

Empress Wan has been very happy these days. Her daughter-in-law, Princess Qing, has diagnosed a happy pulse again. She has given birth to two daughters in a row. This time they should be sons. The harem is generally safe and sound, so Empress Wan personally took Starting needle and thread, I want to make a small dress for my grandson who will be born next year.

After sewing a sleeve, her eldest court lady Lan Xin rushed over with small steps, "Your Majesty, the emperor is here."

Empress Wan shook her hand, and there was a tingling pain in her fingertips.

But Queen Wan didn't even frown, and signaled to Lan Xin to pick him up first. She quickly sucked her fingertips, put away her needlework and put on her shoes, and went to the main room with a calm face. Salute, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Ming Hui nodded, and went straight to Dongci Room, saw children's clothes in the sewing basket, in the shape of boys, Emperor Ming Hui thought about it, and asked while sitting on the couch: "Is it for Brother Pei?"

The grandson of the third emperor in Fu Wang's mansion is named Pei Ge'er.

Empress Wan poured tea for him, and said with a smile: "Brother Pei has enough clothes, and the eldest daughter-in-law has good news again, this is for over there."

Emperor Ming Hui hummed, picked up the small clothes and looked through them, but his mind was not on his grandchildren.Putting down the silk satin, Emperor Ming Hui motioned for Empress Wan to sit down too, then picked up the tea bowl, and chatted casually: "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I went out of the palace in micro-clothes and met Lu Qing's beloved daughter Lu Yun. The little girl was eighteen in a blink of an eye. I see you She is soft and cute, and you decided to take her into the palace, what position do you think is appropriate to seal her?"

After finishing speaking, his eyes finally fell on Queen Wan's face.

Empress Wan showed surprise, and smiled after a while: "I remember, the emperor liked Ajun very much when she was a child, right? They are all talents of pillars, how about making Ajun a nobleman first, and then mentioning the concubine after going to bed?"

Other beautiful girls, who serve as servants and are promoted to nobles, are promoted to concubines only when they are happy. Lu Yun, who has married someone, is equivalent to entering the palace to become a concubine. Empress Wan felt that this arrangement was enough to show Emperor Ming Hui's almost human love for Lu Yun. The well-known love and respect for the Lu family father and son.

Empress Wan explored to observe the opposite emperor.

Emperor Ming Hui frowned slightly, "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. There is still one concubine missing in the position of four concubines. Let's make Ajun a concubine directly. I acted rashly that night and caused her to be criticized by the people. Being a concubine is a bit of compensation."

Empress Wan imperceptibly pursed her lower lip, and said submissively: "What the emperor said is very true, so has the emperor thought about Ajun's title?"

Emperor Ming Hui thought for a while, and said: "Ajun is demure and chaste, gentle and gentle, I think the word 'rong' is good."

Concubine Rong?

Empress Wan smiled wryly in her heart, the emperor had already thought about it a long time ago, so he wanted to come to her to put on a show.

Because of her natal family being neglected by Emperor Minghui for many years, even though Empress Wan was dissatisfied with this matter, she did not dare to offend Emperor Minghui again, so she went along with it against her will.Emperor Huihui of Ming came here because of Lu Yun's entry into the palace, and he left after finishing speaking.

Emperor Minghui never liked Empress Wan. The first emperor arranged for the empress to be his heir, so Emperor Minghui fulfilled the duties of a husband. Emperor Minghui could not feel any pity for a woman who was three years older than him.Later, the late Cheng Enhou intended to coerce the emperor to order the princes, and Ming Huidi cleaned up the wolfish and ambitious head of state, and did not touch the queen for the sake of his son.

After seeing Emperor Minghui off, Empress Wan returned to her bedroom alone, her brows furrowed.

She got the news of Mid-Autumn Festival yesterday, and she had been worrying that the emperor would accept Lu Yun into the palace, but she didn't expect her worry to come true.Lu Yun is young and beautiful, with a prominent status. The emperor likes her so much that he doesn't even care about her being married. He was appointed Concubine Rong when he was first appointed. With such a great favor, once Lu Yun gave birth to a prince in the future, and the emperor is young and strong...

By coincidence, Empress Wan suddenly thought of the descendants of the Lu family, the Lu Rong brothers, and their sons, whether they were literary or martial, there was no one who was not outstanding.Mrs. Zhu is just a village girl, but the son she gave birth to is the most intelligent and most promising champion among the Lu family brothers. Lu Yun is so like Mrs. Zhu, could she be like Mrs. Zhu, who is stupid but whose children are all human? Middle dragon and phoenix?
Thinking about her two sons, one mediocre and the other stupid, a chill suddenly flashed across Queen Wan's eyes.

In the early morning of the second day, Emperor Minghui decreed that Lu Yun should be concubine Rong, and ordered Qin Tianjian, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Industry to make preparations.

As soon as the imperial decree came out, the whole court was in an uproar, and all the civil and military ministers looked at Lu Zhan.

Lu Zhansu knelt down and kowtowed to thank the emperor for his kindness.

Several censors looked at each other, and a bold one came out, saying that Lu Yun's character was flawed and could not be favored by the emperor, because the Empress Xiaokang of the Emperor Gaozu of Da Qi was also the daughter of a remarriage, so he dared not accuse Lu Yun of remarrying , can only attack the name of Lu Yun's jealous wife, and ask Ming Hui Emperor to lower Lu Yun's initial title.

"Flawed conduct?" Emperor Ming Hui sat on the dragon chair, and his face showed irony when he heard the words: "I also heard some rumors among the market, and I ordered a special person to investigate secretly, and confirmed that those are just nonsense, Zhao Qing If you dare to say this, do you have evidence that I have not been able to find out?"

Zhao Yushi's forehead was sweating immediately. In the past two days, the streets and alleys of the capital have been rumored about Emperor Hui, Lu Yun and the Yao family. He has only heard the rumors, but there is no trouble without wind. If Lu Yun is not a jealous woman, what are the rumors about? here?

"Weichen, I am listening to people talking..."

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. As a censor, Zhao Qing doesn't even understand this truth?" Emperor Minghui's face darkened, and his long and narrow eyes stared coldly at the censors, "The censor Responsibility, impeachment of hundreds of ministers, identification of injustice, admirals of various ways, I rely on you as my eyes and ears, and when you encounter something that violates the etiquette and law, you should first distinguish right from wrong, and then go to heaven to listen, instead of falsely believing in rumors, the same as those ignorant The women spread falsehoods like this and betrayed my trust."

"This humble minister is negligent, please forgive me." Tianwei was so powerful, Zhao Yushi was so regretful that his intestines were green, he knelt down to plead guilty in fear, and scolded his colleague who had just egged him with his eyes, he knew that the other party hadn't come out , why should he touch this bad luck.

Emperor Minghui glanced at the other courtiers, and sternly dismissed Zhao Yushi's officials, killing chickens to make an example to monkeys.

In the evening of that day, as the officials returned to the mansion one after another, the news of Emperor Ming Hui's will to concubine concubine and Zhao Yushi's false rumors about losing his official position also quickly spread.

The next day, Yao Jiting asked for a leave of absence and did not go to the household department to work. That morning, the Liu family sent someone to deliver a message to Mrs. Yao, saying that Mrs. Liu had an occasional cold and would not be able to go to Anguo Temple to offer incense tomorrow.The old lady Yao was devastated, lying on the couch with no energy left.

As early as Emperor Minghui's decree came out, she expected that the Liu family would regret their marriage.

Lu Yun is destined to enter the palace, and the Yao family is finished.

Old Mrs. Yao's heart was so congested, her brain hurt so much that she wanted to rush to the Lu's house and kill that coquettish slut.Why did Lu Yun enter the palace, why did her grandson fall into a slump, and why did their Yao family fall into today's situation, without a bright future?
"Old lady, old lady, it's not good, son, he, he..."

The flustered voice of Ruyi, the maid next to Yao Jiting, came from outside, and the old lady Yao leaned against the head of the bed, frowning and looking at the door.Ruyi quickly showed up, and when she saw Mrs. Yao, she knelt down and cried, "Old lady, my son, he doesn't let us serve in the house, he, he cut off his hair..."

When Mrs. Yao heard this, her eyeballs bulged, followed by a mouthful of old blood spurting out!

The maids hurried over to serve.

"Get out, get out!" Mrs. Yao wiped the corners of her mouth, staggered out of bed, and rushed towards her grandson on crutches. Halfway there, she saw a man in a gray robe with severed hair slowly walking towards him. Turned from the side of the moon gate.The man walked slowly, his face was pale, and his eyes were dull. It was Yao Jiting.

"Send the court..." Mrs. Yao's lips trembled, and the crutch in her hand fell down.

"Grandmother, you want your grandson to honor your ancestors, but your grandson can't do it. You want Yao's family to be full of children and grandchildren. If your grandson's heart is dead, you can't do it anymore. I have already written to my elder brother, and he will come to pick you up soon, grandma." The grace of upbringing, the grandson will repay it in the next life."

Yao Jiting knelt down in front of his grandmother and slowly kowtowed three times.

The old lady Yao burst into tears, she threw herself down and hugged her grandson tightly, her heart was so painful that someone dug it out, "Why are you doing this, what is the trouble, she is so good, you miss her like this, even grandma No more... Jiting, Jiting, you want grandma to die of pain..."

Yao Jiting knelt numbly, with his eyes downcast, listening to his grandmother's heart-piercing cries, his eyes were peaceful.

Ajun is about to enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine. When he thinks of her being favored by the emperor, he feels pain all over his body. When he thinks that he will be ridiculed if he stays in the capital, he feels that it is better to die than to live. .But Yao Jiting didn't want his grandmother to be given away by a white-haired man, so he would continue to live and live in another place, far away from the capital.

"Grandmother, take care of yourself. Forgive me for being unfilial. I can no longer serve you by your side."

Listening to her grandmother crying silently for a long time, Yao Jiting firmly pulled away her grandmother's hands and stood up.The old lady Yao cried even worse, hugging her grandson's legs to prevent him from leaving, Yao Jiting pushed him away again, and then left without looking back.The old lady Yao cried and ordered someone to stop him, but Yao Jiting was so abnormal, who would dare to stop him?

Two quarters of an hour later, a carriage slowly drove out of the south city gate and headed south.

The Duke of Chu's mansion secretly sent people to watch the Yao family, and Mrs. Tai was the first to get the news.

She gripped the teacup tightly, hating iron for being weak.The emperor accepted Lu Yun into the palace, the censor is useless, the only one who can do bad things is the Yao family, the old master Yao is the emperor's teacher, as long as the old lady Yao makes a fuss, Emperor Minghui will act arbitrarily, and his fame will be ruined by Lu Yun. Yun was damaged, at this time Emperor Ming Hui was greedy for beauty and didn't care, and there will always be a day when he regrets it in the future.But Yao Jiting slipped away in desperation, and Ming Huidi got Lu Yun smoothly, so why care about it?If Lu Yun was favored and gave birth to a son, King Qing would have another formidable enemy. After all, Emperor Ming Hui was only in his 30s, enough to live long enough for the little prince to marry him.

"Where is Mrs. Yao?" Mrs. Tai asked with the last hope. Yao Jiting became a monk. Mrs. Yao must hate Lu Yun to death, right?
The steward sent to follow up hesitated and said, "It seems, it seems to be crazy..."
