Chapter 699: Gifts
Empress Dowager Zhang was worried about this for a few days, and then he heard that this involved the court's national policy against the Tatars. In fact, the Tatars were too far away from Empress Dowager Zhang, and she had no intention of caring about the Tatars' national policy. She was worried about the court officials. The national policy was originally set, but it was biased because of the emperor's nonsense. It would be better if he won. Once he lost, he didn't know what trouble would happen to the civil and military officials in the court.
Although Empress Dowager Zhang rarely pays attention to matters in the foreign court, for fear of being told about gossip, as a mother, she naturally has to worry about such an unreliable son. After that, the Xiaoqi Camp was defeated, and the little orange went to report the news in panic, and Empress Dowager Zhang was also worried.
The face in the palace was ruined, and this was caused by the emperor, so the emperor's reputation was also ruined.
Fortunately, Ye Chunqiu was so powerful that he stood up and turned the tide at this time. She didn't understand the man's war. She just heard the eunuchs talking vividly, roughly speaking, how powerful the Golden Tent Guard was, and how Ye Chunqiu and Zhenguo New Army fought desperately. Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but be shocked. This was a life-and-death death.
Now that the Golden Tent Guards have been completely defeated, the Tatars' most elite personal guard cavalry actually lost to the hands of the new army with only half of the number of people, which is something that no one can imagine.
Since the speech is almost controlled by scholars, the right to interpret any military-related interpretation is in the scholars. In addition to being exaggerated, scholars mostly ignore equipment, supplies, and practice peaceful organizational skills in their understanding of war, but they prefer to promote their spirit. For example, if they win, they must be said to be loyal and brave, but if they lose, they will naturally lack loyalty and courage.
Most of the eunuchs in Shouning Palace were trafficking dealers of the second and third paths. After some explanation from scholars, they then spread it for a while, and finally it inevitably flowed into the eunuchs' ears.
Therefore, the information obtained by Empress Dowager Zhang had at least three times, and only God knew the accuracy of the news. However, the descriptions of that battle mostly talked about how loyal, brave, and desperate Ye Chunqiu was. When Empress Dowager Zhang heard it, why did she sound like Mr. Guan Er? Could this editor Ye be reincarnated by Mr. Guan Er? Also, like Zhao Zilong, who protects the master in Changbanpo... Is this amazing?
The little emperor likes to make trouble, and most of the people around him are messy people. The cabinet is still very serious, but it may not be the same as the palace. Queen Mother Zhang thought about it carefully and refused to listen to anyone, but listened to Ye Xiu's loyalty, and he was about the same age as His Majesty. Now he was injured in fighting against the Tatars. He should come and see it for reason. He still owe him favors. The child in Queen Xia's belly was also preserved. Although the family of heaven is ruthless, it depends on people. Ye Chunqiu, she can do it.
Later, Queen Zhang was still worried and called Queen Xia. She was a person with a delicate mind. Queen Xia was the orthodox she designated. If Queen Xia gave birth to a son in the future, she would definitely succeed the throne. The Zhang family and the Xia family are now in an offensive and defensive alliance. Those incompetent brothers will have to rely on their grandson when they really have a good time in the future.
It is even more terrifying to play politics among women. They are as careful as they are, and every little action has a profound meaning. Empress Xia suddenly understands the Queen Mother’s thoughts. This is the Queen Mother Zhang’s need to consolidate the relationship and lay the groundwork for the future. Empress Xia is a link in the future chess game of Queen Mother Zhang, and the future grandson is naturally the same. Ye Chunqiu is naturally in this chess game. Those who enjoy glory during their lifetime will inevitably have long-term considerations and must plan for a hundred years.
This time, when Wang Jingchu was called, Empress Xia couldn't help but be intimate with this girl from the Wang family, and it was okay to get along with each other. After all, Wang Jingchu was influenced by the Wang family's scholarly family. She was gentle and elegant, well-educated, and she was able to get along with her.
Empress Dowager Zhang said that she was exempted from tribute, and someone brought Jindun to her. She sat down slowly and said to Ye Chunqiu with a smile: "Ye Qing family has made great contributions, but now she is seriously injured. Ai family is in Renshou Palace. I feel sorry for thinking about it. You are not an outsider in the Ai family, so you don't have to be too polite. Why, is the injury better? You really scared people to death. Do you know that when Jing first came to see Ai family, your eyes were red. You were recuperating in the imperial hospital, and you couldn't come to the palace to see her rashly. I begged to come to Ai family. Ai family brought her here to make her feel more at ease."
Ye Chunqiu hurriedly said, "The injury has been healed, I'm sorry for it." After that, he glanced at Wang Jingchu. Wang Jingchu looked at her head without saying a word, looking a little shy, but there was still a hint of worry between her eyebrows.
Empress Xia, who was standing beside her belly, smiled and said, "My mother prayed for you in Mingtang yesterday. I hope you will recover soon. The mother is really interested. Ye Aiqing has such blessings. If you can be like this, shouldn't this injury be great?"
Empress Xia looked at Ye Chunqiu with a friendly smile. She was grateful to Ye Chunqiu. Without him, there would be no children in her belly. Ye Chunqiu saved herself and the children in her belly. This was the most stable alliance. He could speak in front of His Majesty's perverse character, even Empress Xia sometimes couldn't stand it. Therefore, if Empress Xia gave birth to a prince, the position of this prince must be stable, and there must be help from the outside dynasty. However, the empresses of the Ming Dynasty often came from very few families of wealth and honor, and they all belonged to the wealthy family. Although they were all promoted to heaven, they had never experienced any influence and upbringing. The brothers in their parents' family could not be referred to, so it would be better not to cause trouble. Ye Chunqiu was young and was the top scholar. He was a top scholar. He was trustworthy and had a promising future. He had half his foot in the cabinet. This was obviously the most stable ally.
What Empress Xia is really worried about is that her belly is not strong. If she gave birth to a girl, other concubines, and someone gave birth to a boy, God knows whether those ministers who are eager to have a crown prince will have any bad thoughts.
This kind of thing has always been a must-have. Several concubines have some power in their families and should not be underestimated. Once the prince is in a position of vain, I don’t know when I will be pregnant next time. Two years or three years will be fine. What if it is five, six years or seven or eight years?
There are too many variables here. After thinking about it, Queen Xia feels that she still has to rely on this life-savior to exert influence at all times. Even if she does not have the right to make a decision, she is also good to be a messenger.
As Queen Xia said, pulling Wang Jingchu, who had always been reserved, and smiled, "I and my mother are just here to see Ye Aiqing, as long as Ye Aiqing is fine."
