Chapter 82: Mother's Kindness and Son's Filial Piety

Zhu Youlang does not have much intimacy with Empress Dowager Ma, a cheap mother. However, since he has taken the status of the original owner, he has to be filial to his mother. How could he occupy the throne and his wife, and not be filial to his mother?

Besides, the Ming Dynasty governed the world with filial piety, and as the emperor, I must set an example.

Therefore, a touching scene of a mother's kindness and filial son's filial piety was staged in the west of the city.

However, being kind to the mother is true, but being filial to the son is false.

"Mother, I miss you so much!" Zhu Youlang knelt down on the ground when he saw the Empress Dowager and said excitedly.

But he said in his heart: "I wonder if the original owner is so sensational?"

When he knelt down, the empress Wang Chang, the palace maid eunuch, the minister of the Ministry of Rites Wu Bing, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel Qu Shisi, the minister of the Ministry of War Chen Zizhuang, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue Chen Bangyan, the minister of the Ministry of Justice Lu Daqi, the minister of the Ministry of Works Li Yongmao and other civil and military officials all knelt on the ground.

Except for Wu Bing who was ordered to go to Zhaoqing to welcome the Empress Dowager's carriage, other civil and military ministers rushed from Guangzhou city.

"Emperor, what are you doing? Get up quickly, get up quickly, the ground is cold, let me take a good look." The Queen Mother said anxiously.

Zhu Youlang stood up and walked to the empress dowager. The empress dowager grabbed his hand, looked up and down, and said with tears in his eyes: "My son has lost weight and is also black."

"Mother, although my son has lost weight, he is stronger and more energetic. Don't worry." Seeing that the Empress Dowager was crying, Zhu Youlang wanted to squeeze two tears to cooperate, but he couldn't squeeze it out, so he had to comfort her with a smile.

"No matter how many state affairs there are, you must pay attention to your health. Queen!"

"The son is here."

"In the future, you must take good care of the emperor's body and never let him work too hard."

"Yes, my son obeys the order."

Wang Chang received the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager and turned around to bow to Zhu Youlang Yingying: "I have met the emperor."

"You and I are one, why bother to be polite?" Zhu Youlang quickly pulled her up and pinched her hands.

Wang Chang's face turned slightly red, he looked at the emperor with a shy look, and then realized that this was not the time when the two of them were alone. He quickly stood up, raised his airs, and took out a dignified look.

Zhu Youlang has some feelings for Wang Chang. First, he had a few nights of love with her and knew that this was a virtuous wife and a plump figure, which was exactly the type she liked. Second, after being held in for more than a month, he really thought about it.

"I have seen the emperor." Wang Kun went out and knelt in front of Zhu Youlang.

Zhu Youlang glanced at him coldly, didn't say anything, and turned to the Empress Dowager and said, "My mother, it's very windy outside the city, so you can't stay for a long time, so you'd better go back to the city."

"Okay, let's follow the emperor. Prince, you get on my mother's carriage and tell me about the past month." The Empress Dowager agreed readily.

"It is the son who makes the mother worry about it." Zhu Youlang and Wang Chang helped the empress dowager into the car from left to right.

The team entered the city in a mighty manner, but Wang Kun knelt on the spot without moving. His heart was as messy as his hair.

...

Zhu Youlang's palace was still located in the former Guangzhou Prefectural Office, and it was slightly renovated. At the front is the Qinzheng Hall, the second entry is the residence of the concubines, the main house is the Kunning Palace, and the third entry is the residence of the empress dowager, called Cining Palace, and behind Cining Palace is the Imperial Garden. This is the main hall.

The main transformation is still on the east and west sides.

Chen Bangyan, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and Minister of the Interior, collected the houses on the east and west sides as the locations of the various supervisors, departments and bureaus of the Interior.

According to Zhu Youlang's idea, it is time to start a business, and everything is simple, and there is no need to set up so many institutions. Moreover, he wants to greatly reduce the power of eunuchs, and some departments should abolish them, such as the Silijian.

But Chen Bangyan didn't think so. He felt that all the 12th Supervisor, Fourth Bureau and Eight Divisions should be complete. They can reduce the power of eunuchs and the number of eunuchs, but the service functions of these departments are indispensable. For example, the statutes and run away, but it is still inevitable to pass on the orders and run away.

After hearing this, Zhu Youlang didn't say much, thinking: "Yes, you can't live without these departments when eating and dressing. You can't let the queen cook and wash clothes. Although the Yongli Dynasty was newly built, it wouldn't be as poor as this." So he followed him.

The position of the General Manager of the Interior Affairs Office is very important, in charge of the eunuchs, palace maids and guards of the inner palace. Zhu Youlang put Chen Bangyan in this position mainly because he saw his loyalty and diligence and outstanding ability.

Chen Bangyan was very grateful to see the emperor hand over the most important Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to him. In order to repay the emperor's kindness, he also fought hard. The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Revenue was a series of continuous reunions and could not rest for three hours a day, and his eyes were filled with blood.

However, he was a little tired, but after building and decorating the emperor's palace in more than a month, he still felt very accomplished.

...

"My mother, your Cining Palace is still a little simpler, it is all the incompetent fault of my son. Let me live there for a few years. My son will definitely serve my mother to live in the Zijincheng Palace in Beijing." Zhu Youlang said to the Empress Dowager.

"Don't say that, although this place is not as grand as the imperial palace in the capital, nor is it magnificent, but it is very good to have flowers and be rich and peaceful. Mom is very satisfied." Empress Dowager Ma looked at her house. Although it was a little clean, she was not a ignorant person. She found that the various utensils and ornaments in the house were not ordinary things. She knew that her son had done his best and was very satisfied.

"Son, you have put your heart into it. My mother doesn't want to do this. As long as you are good, she will not be afraid of any hardship she suffers. She still cares about these things?" The empress dowager sat down, looked at her son's handsome appearance, and said lovingly.

"My mother, my son can save me some money. I must take care of my body and not let my mother worry." Zhu Youlang comforted her.

"I just saw it in the car. The people in the city were all happy and had no refugees. It was obvious that my son was capable. In just over a month, he not only drove away the Qing soldiers, but also managed Guangzhou City so well."

"Mother, why don't you teach your son this skill well?" Zhu Youlang said sweetly.

"You can say it." The Empress Dowager said angrily.

"Son, I don't understand the national affairs, nor do I want to understand it, but I have a wish, you have to hurry up and fulfill it."

"What wish?"

"Hurry up and give me a little grandson."

When he heard that it was this, Zhu Youlang glanced at Wang Chang, saw that her face turned dark, and then he showed his face, knowing that she remembered two young sons.

The Queen Mother also missed her grandson crazy, so she didn't care about Wang Chang's feelings and said it in front of her.

"My mother, my son must work hard." Zhu Youlang replied.

"Son, Wang Kun is also an old man. I don't know what mistake he made. You are shameless today in front of everyone. If you think of him as loyal as he is, it's almost enough."

The Queen Mother also felt that she shouldn't talk about having a grandson in front of the queen, so she quickly opened up the topic.
