Chapter 1019

Chapter 1019

The empress dowager can only be Li Si'er.

However, who is the queen is indeed a big problem.

If Li Xiuyun is the queen, Tong Xuanyu will also become the eldest son.

I believe that it won't be long before there will be a scandal in which the ministers and the emperor competed for the foundation of the country during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

That is to say, once Xiuyun is established as the empress, there will be courtiers who will jump out, not afraid of beheading, and will go forward one after another to snatch the merit of supporting the crown prince.

In addition, if Xiuyun is appointed as the empress, Cao Chun will become the concubine of the royal family, and Little Iron Hammer will change from a concubine to a concubine.

Nima, it's not a normal headache.

Ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor was actually the beginning of trouble for Yuzhu.

After Yu Zhu saluted, Li Si'er made it clear on purpose: "Others are fine, Ci Kang almost threw me into the well, she has to kneel at my feet and beg for mercy."

Yu Zhu hurriedly explained: "Master Aunt has left the palace, and went out to wander around the world."

"What?" Li Si'er was stunned for a long while, and his originally tense waist suddenly softened.

This is like a cockfight. After many days of brewing, when the fight started, it was discovered that there was no opponent.

"Hmph, she will return to Beijing one day, right? Don't let me know." Li Si'er himself had no idea, but he still spoke harshly.

Yuzhu thought to himself, once my aunt leaves, you don't have to worry about her.

After having dinner with Li Si'er and talking a lot about himself, Yuzhu left.

Arriving in front of the Chuihua Gate, Yu Zhu stopped suddenly, stared at the accompanying Nanny Liu, and said coldly: "You have been serving the empress for many years, if anyone is telling stories in front of the empress, you must tell me in time, Do you understand?"

Mother Liu was terrified, she quickly knelt down, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, rest assured, if anyone dares to pick a fight, this old slave will definitely report to you."

"Well, your son and grandson are both talents, and I will support them well." Yu Zhu put down these words and walked away.

Nanny Liu was terrified to death, what did the emperor mean by promoting her son and grandson?

It is obvious that if you are not obedient, I will kill your whole family.

Back in the Qianqing Palace, the imperial case was already filled with memorials from the Military Aircraft Department.

Yuzhu sat in the old emperor's old seat and began to review the memorial.

It was late at night, Yan Lin, the chief eunuch of Qianqing Palace, took the opportunity of serving tea, and whispered a reminder: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to rest!"

Yuzhu just finished approving the last memorial, and casually asked, "What time is it?"

Yan Lin hurriedly said, "It's already midnight."

Yuzhu put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his eyes, and ordered: "Bring the boxes, lock them one by one, and send them to the military aircraft department."

The value room of the Military Aircraft Department is located inside the Longzong Gate.

"Yes." Yan Lin bowed his waist and agreed crisply.

After washing, Yu Zhu walked slowly into the old emperor's original bedroom.

In fact, the old emperor's bedroom was very small, no more than twelve square meters at best.

Moreover, the bed that the old emperor slept on was also very small, not even a quarter of the size of Yuzhu's rocking bed.

However, the bedroom at this moment is the most powerful place in the whole world.

Early the next morning, Yuzhu sat in the Qinzheng Qinxian Hall.

Yan Lin walked quickly to the steps in front of the Qianqing Palace, and shouted loudly with his head held high: "Call the first one!"

The little eunuch in front of the palace gate also shouted: "Call the first one."

The four military ministers who had been waiting outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace for a long time couldn't help being shocked when they heard the words, and headed by Zhou Quan, they went in one by one.

"Congratulations to Saint Ann!"

"That's it."

Yuzhu's ultimate goal must be to abolish kneeling ceremony.

However, there is always a transition.

"Your Majesty, I have discussed with the ministers, and please make the Holy Mother the Empress Dowager." Zhou Quan expressed his position in front of Yu Zhu on behalf of the military ministers.

"Well, let's look at the decree." Yuzhu knew in his heart that it was necessary to make Li Si'er the empress dowager, and there was no room for choice.

Even if this dynasty does not preach and rule the world with filial piety, Li Si'er must be the empress dowager.

Then, Zhou Quan proposed to make Qingtai the Supreme Emperor.

Because Yuzhu has two spouses, although Tong Qingtai is not Yuzhu's biological father, he is also a legitimate stepfather.

The stepfather is the father, there is nothing to say.

It's just that Qingtai's main wife is not Li Si'er, so embarrassment must be avoided.

Therefore, Zhou Quan once again proposed to build another palace as the residence of the Supreme Emperor to spend his life.

In the hands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there are some good places. For example, after the death of Prince Gong Chang Ning, his palace has been empty because of the extinction of heirs.

Yu Zhu thought for a while and said, "Let's rebuild the former Prince Gong's Mansion."

"Yes." The military ministers immediately agreed.

The affairs of the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager are very simple to deal with, all you need to do is to issue an order.

The next thing is tough battle.

"I have discussed with you, Your Majesty, please establish a queen as soon as possible to strengthen the foundation of the country." Ma Qi jumped out on his own initiative.

Because Yuzhu didn't confirm the chief minister of military aircraft, it's not too much for Ma Qi to come out and speak.

"Ma Qi, what do you think?" Yuzhu asked Ma Qi calmly.

Ma Qi said loudly without hesitation: "I think that the Fucha family can be the queen."

Hey, good fellow, Jiang Sheng was not happy with what Ma Qi said, and he immediately retorted: "I think that the Cao family should be made the empress."

Zhang Tingyu didn't say anything, neither did Zhou Quan, the two of them obviously still couldn't figure out what Yu Zhu was thinking.

It is better to be silent than to say a thousand words, who doesn't understand?

In fact, Yuzhu has been pondering for a long time, who is the queen is only the first step.

What really matters is who is the crown prince!

As long as the queen is established, there will be endless battles to support the crown prince, and the party disputes will intensify, and there is no way to do business!

More importantly, both Xiaoxuanyu and Little Tiehammer are still young.

Once the wrong crown prince is chosen, if you want to abolish it, you will be in trouble.

It is impossible for Yuzhu to kill his son.After the new king ascends the throne in the future, will he be killed or not?

After the crown prince was established so early, if Yuzhu lived to be 80 years old, he would be the crown prince for more than forty years.

In order to quell the controversy, the matter of establishing a queen cannot be delayed for a long time.

Therefore, Yuzhu said loudly: "Whether it is the Fucha family or the Cao family, they are all from bannermen. It is not suitable to be a queen, so let's all be made imperial concubines."

Zhang Tingyu pondered carefully, the two imperial concubines are both deputy queens, neither will affect Tong Xuanyu and Tong Changsheng's position as the first sons, nor will they be forced to establish the crown prince early, it can be said to kill four birds with one stone!

"I think it's appropriate." Zhang Tingyu was about to voice his support, but Zhou Quan preempted him.

"Your Majesty..." Ma Qi struggled and wanted to persuade Yuzhu to change his mind.

Unexpectedly, Yuzhu waved his hand and said sharply: "Isn't the lesson of the nine sons seizing the heirloom in the previous dynasty not profound?"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Qi didn't dare to speak anymore.

Because, Ma Qi's biggest stain was secretly instigating the ministers to support the eldest son as the crown prince.

Jiang Sheng rolled his eyes, and immediately realized that as long as he procrastinated, he might be able to make a pure Han woman as queen?

After all, the two most favored women around Yu Zhu are both noble women from Jiangnan!

As for the fact that there has never been a rule that two imperial concubines stand side by side, it is actually not important at all.

Rules are made by people.As long as the emperor has that kind of mind, there will be great Confucianism to help debate the scriptures.

Zhang Cong, the first assistant in the Jiajing period of the former Ming Dynasty, was an extremely talented minister who made great progress by arguing for the emperor.

After solving the problem of not standing up, the next thing is not a big problem.

As the earliest woman in Yuzhu, Lin Yan'er was registered as a virtuous concubine.

To the surprise of the military ministers, Qingwen, who was born as a girl, was registered as a noble concubine.

However, everyone has never had any contact with the emperor's backyard girl, so any canonization will follow Yu Zhu's wishes.

The emperor's woman, no matter what the emperor said, the ministers didn't have any opinions.

Therefore, the concubine's matter was drafted according to the list made by Yu Zhu himself.

The next thing to discuss is the most important thing for Yuzhu.

The meritorious ministers in the new army must be rewarded.

Yuzhu is not Grand Master Dong, so it is impossible for him to treat his confidantes badly.

The rewards for the generals of the new army are first discussed in terms of military exploits, then Conglong's qualifications, and then loyalty.

As a result, after a whole day of deliberations, the existing new army townships all have military merits, and all of them are qualified to be named marquises.

However, Niu Tai, the governor of the Jinwei Township, Lu Wu, the governor of the First Township, and Ma Qingfang, the governor of the Second Township, all had meritorious deeds in destroying the country, so they were named first-class marquises, and promised to be hereditary.

The rest of the town commanders also have military achievements, but they have no achievements in destroying the country, so they can only be named third-class princes together.

In the title system of the Huaxia Empire, there are no princes and dukes, only marquises, earls and viscounts.

Even Yuzhu's own sons, if they have no military merits, they cannot be named marquises.

This is the knighthood experience that Yuzhu has learned from the profound lessons of the past dynasties.

After the founding of the country, as time went by, the princes became more and more mature in the hands of women in the deep palace, and the serious lack of setback education was one of the most important factors that caused one generation to be inferior to the next.

In the inheritance of imperial power, there will be big problems if there are no heirs or few heirs.

In today's world, apart from the United Kingdom, which is a constitutional monarchy, all European countries are also monarchies.

It is easy to mess up any kind of republic that transcends historical conditions.

Originally, Zhang Tingyu thought that Yuzhu's rewards for the new army would be based on the closeness of the relationship.

Unexpectedly, Yuzhu's rewards are impartial, basically in order of military merit.

The new army is the foundation of Yuzhu's ruling.

It can be seen that the new dynasty must not be a short-lived dynasty!

All short-lived dynasties have unknown rewards and punishments, leading to villains in power!

The four military ministers present all had no military merits, so Yuzhu was not conferred with a knighthood, but each of them was given 1 taels of silver and a new house.

However, the new house that was bestowed was actually far away in the southern capital of Wuchang.

The ministers of military aircraft also know that when Yuzhu was inspecting Huguang, he personally inspected the terrain, and with a wave of his hand, he decisively designated several counties in Jingzhou as restricted areas of the royal garden.

To be honest, only by delineating the restricted area of ​​the royal garden can the people be prevented from moving into the flood discharge area to the greatest extent.

It is impossible for artificial construction projects to completely resist the wrath of nature. Therefore, no matter where the capital is located, the flood discharge area is a necessary precaution.
