This article comes from [%] Chapter 430 You have given me a difficult problem (the first high-quality text is in %)!
Zhang Xuan¡¯s reaction was so extreme that Pei Mian was shocked.
Pei Mian quickly stopped and stopped reporting. He raised his head and looked at the emperor respectfully, and whispered, "Your Majesty!"
Zhang Xuan stared at Pei Mian, took a deep breath and said, "Pei Mian, the Guo Fu you just mentioned, is this Guo Fu, the youngest daughter of Guo Ziyi?"
Pei Mian still thought that the emperor was dissatisfied with his draft girl. This was the first important task of emperor that Pei Mian had accepted since he became the prime minister of the court. If he messed up, his status in the court would be worrying. Therefore, Pei Mian attached great importance to this draft. He devoted almost all his energy to this matter and worked with all his heart. The 100 beautiful girls he reported to the emperor's desk, regardless of appearance, talent, temperament and origin Their character and character are all outstanding, and they can be said to be one in a million (high-quality writing is the first to be published, all in %).
Of course, he also had some selfish motives. In order to maintain his power and status, and even to go one step further, he even sent his niece Hulan to the palace. Fortunately, his niece Hulan is as beautiful as the other beautiful women, so what he did is not considered malpractice.
Hearing the emperor mention Guo Fu's name, Pei Mian let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it is Guo Fu, the daughter of Mr. Guo. This daughter is dignified and beautiful. Not only is she talented in literature, but she is also good at riding, shooting, and martial arts. With both talents, she is worthy of being the queen of the generals.¡±
"This is Guo Fu's portrait. Please take a look at it." Pei Mian took out Guo Fu's portrait from a thick pile of portraits of beautiful ladies in the hands of several subordinate officials on one side, and handed it over respectfully.
In order to be ready for the emperor's review at any time, Pei Mian ordered more than a dozen court painters to paint portraits of some outstanding beautiful ladies and provide them to the emperor.
Zhang Xuan put Guo Fu's portrait on the side of the desk without looking at it. He has met Guo Fu many times. He is very familiar with this woman's appearance, so there is no need to look at any portrait.
Pei Mian's evaluation of Guo Fu is very pertinent in Zhang Xuan's opinion, because she is Guo Ziyi's daughter. Zhang Xuan knew him well in Longshuo.
"According to Guo Fu's conditions, it is more than enough to enter the palace and become a concubine. but¡¡
Zhang Xuan was really not mentally prepared. Accept the daughter of your favorite general as your concubine.
He frowned and said softly, "Pei Mian, Guo Fu is the daughter of a general. She can choose her husband to marry. Why should she come to the palace to join in the fun? Does Guo Ziyi know about this?"
Pei Mian secretly thought, how could Guo Ziyi not know that his daughter was going to the palace to serve the emperor. If he could be favored, the Guo family would rise to the top in one step and become even more powerful. Why wouldn't he be happy about it?
Pei Mian bowed and said seriously, "Your Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy, and is the Lord of all ages. Women all over the world admire your Majesty's power, and it is their honor to be able to serve him in the palace. It is their honor to be his family member."
"There were more than 3,000 applicants for this draft. Including Guo Ziyi's daughter Guo Fu, I carefully selected a hundred beautiful girls after thousands of selections for your Majesty's recommendation."
"Although Guo Fu is the daughter of a general, it is her honor to serve His Majesty in the palace."
Although Zhang Xuan knew that Pei Mian was flattering, such words made people feel comfortable.
Besides. Pei Mian did not exaggerate. Being able to serve the emperor in the palace was indeed the dream of many ordinary women and even the rich and powerful. It is actually normal for Guo Ziyi's daughter to enter the palace.
Zhang Xuan¡¯s brows furrowed.
He is unwilling to accept Guo Fu. If Guo Fu is allowed to enter the palace, if he does not favor her, it will inevitably cause unnecessary rifts in his relationship with Guo Ziyi. And if you want to favor hertell the truth. Zhang Xuan really felt a little funny.
Will his confidant and beloved general, Minister Humerus, turn around and become his father-in-law?
He carefully observed Zhang Xuan's face, thinking about lightning. I thought: Could it be that the emperor doesn't like this Guo Fu? Right, right. Guo Ziyi was born as a general in Longshuo, and His Majesty was the commander-in-chief of the Longshuo vassal. He must be very familiar with Guo Fu, and it is common to dislike him.
When he thought of this, Pei Mian immediately smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if Your Majesty is not happy, I will hook Guo Fu away."
Before Zhang Xuan could speak, he suddenly heard a soft female voice coming from the entrance of the palace: "Your Majesty, you absolutely must not!"
While talking, Queen Cui Ying walked in dignifiedly with Ruyan and Ruyu.
Pei Mian and other officials quickly bowed down and said, "I will pay my respects to the Queen!"
Cui Ying smiled gently, waved her hand and said, "Prime Minister Pei, no courtesy!"
Zhang Xuan waved to Cui Ying and said with a smile, "Ying'er, why are you here? Come and sit here."
Cui Ying also smiled and walked to sit beside Zhang Xuan. Ruyan and Ruyu quickly stood behind them.
Cui Ying glanced at the portrait of Guo Fu on the table and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I have met this young lady of the Guo family not long ago. She is indeed dignified in appearance and has both civil and military skills. She is worthy of being your Majesty's concubine."
Zhang Xuan frowned and was about to speak when Cui Ying said again, "Your Majesty, it has been a common thing from ancient times for the daughters of your ministers to enter the palace to serve your Majesty. Your Majesty must not do that just because Guo Fu is the daughter of Duke Guo Lin - ¡ª¡±
At this point, Cui Ying suddenly leaned into Zhang Xuan's ear and whispered, "Your Majesty, if you withdraw Guo Fu from the palace, where will the face of Guo Ziyi's family go? Don't think it's just a draft, but if Your Majesty really gives up, There will be criticism in the DPRK, and it will be a big blow to Guo Ziyi¡¯s prestige.¡±
"Our dynasty has just been established, and your Majesty wants to open up new territories and achieve great achievements. It is the right time to appoint people. You cannot let your ministers' hearts fall"
Cui Ying¡¯s words hit Zhang Xuan¡¯s thoughts. He was quite troubled because of this. If he refutes Guo Ziyi's daughter and leaves the palace, Guo Ziyi's prestige in the court will definitely be greatly reduced. This is contrary to his idea of ????supporting Guo Ziyi to replace Chen Xilie as the head of the officials in the future.
but¡¡
Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh, feeling helpless and speechless.
"Besides, among the girls entering the draft this time, there are not only Guo Ziyi's youngest daughter Guo Fu, but also Pugu Huai'en's daughter Pugu Lingguang, Yan Zhenqing's niece Yan Qiaoqiao, Yulin General Zhang Tong's daughter Zhang Ying, and even There is Pei Mian's niece Hulan in front of Your Majesty, and there are also ladies from the high-ranking gentry clans Zheng, Wang and Lu."
"From my concubine's point of view, these women are all outstanding in appearance and conduct. Your Majesty should accept them all into the palace to appease the hearts of the ministers."
Cui Ying¡¯s thoughts are very simple and straightforward. Since these powerful people have sent their daughters to the palace. Then accept it and use it as a means for the emperor to win over people.
Zhang Xuan frowned more and more.
This is an ordinary draft. It has evolved into a power dispute between the DPRK and China. As the emperor, if he does not handle things well, it will affect the increasingly stable situation between the DPRK and China.
Zhang Xuan glanced at Pei Mian and said calmly, "Pei Mian, are you serious about what the queen said?"
Pei Mian didn't hear the first half of Cui Ying's words because her voice was too low, but the rest. But he heard it clearly, especially when the queen mentioned her name.
Pei Mian smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen is right."
Zhang Xuan stood up suddenly with some annoyance and said in a deep voice, "Pei Mian, please pass on my oral instructions quickly. Let Guo Ziyi, Yan Zhenqing, Zhang Ting and others come into the palace to see me."
Pei Mian was a little surprised. But he still took the order and left.
After Pei Mian left, Cui Ying whispered a few words in Zhang Xuan's ear.
Hearing this, Zhang Xuan's expression suddenly changed, she stood up and shouted angrily, "You are really playing the piano randomly! This is unreasonable, let her leave the palace quickly and return her to the Tang Palace!"
Cui Ying quickly stood up and bowed down, saying softly. "Your Majesty, please calm down. Sister Wanchun did this because the King of Tang repeatedly asked her to do it. If Your Majesty is angry and lets Yan Guang leave the palace like this, Sister Wanchun will not be able to live with her face! Now Sister Wanchun is pregnant, I cannot get too emotional, please think again, Your Majesty!¡±
Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows. Suppressing his anger, he smiled bitterly and said, "Ying'er, this is impossible. In any case, there is no room for negotiation on this issue. We must leave the palace!"
Cui Ying sighed lightly, stood up and said. "Your Majesty, this move by King Tang is just to relieve his uneasiness. (The first high-quality text is in %). How about"
Cui Ying walked to Zhang Xuan and whispered a few words in his ear.
Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, that's it. Come, let Li Yanguang come to see you!"
Li Yanguang walked into the palace with an extremely complicated and anxious mood, not knowing what kind of fate awaited her.
The emperor wanted to summon him in person - couldn't he agree to enter the palace and become a concubine? Li Yanguang thought about lightning and sorted out his messy thoughts.
When he walked into the palace, he saw Zhang Xuan standing tall and Queen Cui Ying by his side. He quickly prostrated himself in the tunnel and said, "Daughter Li Yanguang, pay your respects to Your Majesty and the Queen!"
"Li Yanguang, you are Concubine Ning's niece, that is, my junior. This matter of entering the palace is over and will not be mentioned again from now on." Zhang Xuan said calmly.
Li Yanguang¡¯s heart trembled, not daring to raise his head, and prostrated himself on the ground.
"Yanguang, you are beautiful and talented. I like you very much. I intend to adopt you as my adopted daughter. I wonder if you are willing?" Cui Ying said with a smile.
Li Yanguang was shocked and turned pale. He immediately raised his head and looked at Cui Ying and the emperor, his eyes flickering. For a moment, he didn't know what the emperor and the queen meant, and he didn't dare to speak.
"What, you don't want to?" Cui Ying smiled, "If you accept me as your mother, you can't bear the loss."
Li Yanguang did not dare to hesitate any longer and said in a trembling voice, "Yanguang is willing to¡ª¡ª"
"You haven't paid homage to your mother yet?" A strange smile appeared on Cui Ying's lips. She was actually a few years older than Li Yanguang, but given her seniority, and she was the queen of the dynasty, it made sense to accept Li Yanguang as her adopted daughter.
"My daughter Yanguang pays homage to the queen mother." Li Yanguang bowed down in a daze, and he still didn't come back to his senses for a while.
Cui Ying smiled slightly, stood up, went down to help Li Yanguang up, held her hand and walked back, gesturing for her to stand to one side.
Zhang Xuan glanced at Li Yanguang and said loudly, "Declaration - the queen's righteous daughter Li Yanguang is canonized as Princess Jingxin, and she will live in the middle palace and always be by the queen's side."
Li Yanguang was suddenly ecstatic. She never thought that one day she would regain her title of princess. She was originally Princess Li Tang, the princess of the subjugated country, but now she has become the princess of the new dynasty. Her Highness, the adopted daughter of the Queen, can also always accompany her in the palace. How much favor is this?
Li Yanguang fell to the ground with tears of gratitude, "Yanguang thanks your Majesty for your kindness, long live my emperor!"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out out of wedlock, she originally wanted to be the emperor's favorite concubine, but ended up becoming the queen's adopted daughter, and was given the title of a princess, which was an unexpected surprise.
Cui Ying smiled, stood up with Yanguang and Ruyan Ruyu, and said, "Your Majesty, I will return to the palace first."
Zhang Xuan nodded, but looked at Li Yanguang and said calmly, "Yanguang, I will name you Princess Jingxin. I hope you can cultivate your mind and cultivate your character. Serve with peace of mind by the queen's side, and I will personally choose a good son-in-law for you in the future. As princess I will marry you out of the palace."
"Come here, tell the Prince of Tang's Mansion to give him gold, silver and jewels."
Li Yanguang¡¯s heart trembled, and he quickly bowed and saluted, ¡°Yanguang understands, thank you for your kindness.¡±
¡¡
¡¡
Pei Mian, Guo Ziyi, Yan Zhenqing, Zhang Tong and others walked into the hall. He did not expect that in less than half an hour since he was out, the emperor would actually consecrate a princess. She was Li Yanguang, the daughter of Tang Wang Li Heng, and was adopted as an adopted daughter by the queen.
The ministers bowed down and said, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live my Emperor!"
It was when he was paying homage to the mountain to pray for long live, that Pei Mian suddenly discovered that the four ministers present basically all had daughters or close relatives in the list of beautiful women. Including myself. Except for Pugu Huaien who is far away in Fan Yang.
The emperor is going to Pei Mian thought of this. I felt a little uneasy and nervous.
The ministers bowed down, but the emperor made no move and did not let him get up.
The four of them were all a little nervous, and they didn¡¯t know why.
After a long time, Zhang Xuan said coldly, "You all should get up."
Guo Ziyi and others stood up and lined up on both sides. Only then did they realize that the emperor's face was not very good.
Zhang Xuan¡¯s stern eyes swept over Guo Ziyi and others one by one, and suddenly said loudly. "You have posed a problem for me! A big problem!"
Guo Ziyi and others were stunned.
"I have repeatedly emphasized that when I hire people, I prefer those who have both ability and political integrity. I don't use people who are virtuous but not talented, because it will delay my state affairs. I don't even use people who are talented but not virtuous, because it will bring disaster to the world."
"Therefore, when I choose someone, I must first see whether you have virtue and talent, and whether you can truly serve the court, benefit the people of the world, and share my worries."
"I will definitely use truly capable and virtuous ministers."
"If you want to be reused by me, you have to see if you can become a capable and virtuous minister (high-quality text first, all in %). This is my only criterion for selecting ministers. As for the others, they are all crooked ways. "
"You guys are all close to me. I thought you would understand my thoughts. But it turned out not to be the case. To be honest, I am very disappointed, very disappointed!"
"The purpose of my draft selection this time is to complete the court etiquette and improve the inner court. It is not because I am greedy for women. I believe you all know this. But you know this, but you still tried your best to send your daughter to the palace Isn¡¯t this a problem for me?¡±
"You think your daughter is with me?If you are favored here, you can do whatever you want? I am not a foolish king, so how can I abolish the official position for personal reasons? Hmph! "
Zhang Xuan suddenly slapped the table.
Everyone¡¯s faces turned red and they lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Guo Ziyi was so ashamed that she immediately knelt on the ground and said lowly, "Your Majesty, I am guilty. I will take my daughter out of the palace right now. Please temporarily calm down your thunderous anger!"
Yan Zhenqing also fell to the ground in embarrassment, "I know that I have sinned, and I am ashamed! Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Pei Mian and Zhang Tong also prostrated themselves on the ground and apologized again and again.
"You have entered my inner palace and you still want to go back? Do you think my inner palace is a vegetable market?" Zhang Xuan suddenly slapped the table again.
Guo Ziyi and others were frightened and fell to the ground.
"That's all, you are shameless, but I still want shame!" Zhang Xuan snorted coldly, "Pei Mian!"
Pei Miancheng said in fear, "I'm here!"
"Get up - get out of here!" Zhang Xuan scolded.
"Pei Mian, convey my will. The Jin Dynasty conferred the titles of Concubine Hui, Concubine Ning, Concubine Shu, Concubine Li, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Yi as imperial concubines, canonized Guo Fu as Concubine Duan, Concubine Pugu Lingguang as Concubine Kang, and Concubine Zhang Ying as Concubine Chen. Concubine and Hulan are concubines, and each is given a palace and garden."
"It won't happen next time. If you do it again, I will never forgive you! Get out of here!" Zhang Xuan stood up and walked away.
Guo Ziyi and others stood up and looked at each other, then felt a little happy. Although the emperor got angry, he still took care of their face, which shows their position in the emperor's mind. Moreover, the emperor not only agreed to admit their daughter into the palace, but also promoted her to a higher level and made her a concubine instead of a concubine or a lower status. This was enough to prove that the emperor valued her.
Now that everyone has entered the palace, it will depend on everyone¡¯s luck and ability.
Guo Ziyi and others greeted each other, laughed, and left the palace with smiles.
With the draft now over, the daughters or close relatives of Guo Ziyi and other DPRK ministers entered the palace and were canonized as concubines, making their status in the DPRK more stable. Some high-ranking women from noble families were also selected and canonized as concubines, concubines, beauties, etc. This time, a total of 20 people were admitted to the palace.
As a result, Zhang Xuan, the emperor's inner court, had 27 women with status and titles in his backyard.
Zhang Xuan felt that it was already a lot, but in the minds of Chen Xilie and other courtiers and people, it was still very "shabby". It is far from being able to show the majesty of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Power, the Khan of Heaven.
Fortunately, this is only the first draft. From now on, you will choose again every three years. It would be nice to form regulations. This is what Chen Xilie and others think.
These women entered the palace, waiting with nervous anticipation for the emperor's favor. Then, after entering the palace, they did not even see the emperor once. Only the queen and six imperial concubines summoned them once, gave them a lecture, and asked them to guard the palace. Everyone does his job.
The girls couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but the palace gate was as deep as the sea, and they couldn't help it once they entered the palace.
For half a month, Zhang Xuan had no intention of summoning these new concubines. Even Queen Cui Ying felt that it was too much, no matter whether she was favored or not. You have to summon me once, right? Look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face. At least they have to take care of their parents' face, right?
Cui Ying asked Ruyan Ruyu to speak several times, but Zhang Xuan always responded perfunctorily.
Wan Chun giggled, "Sister Queen, it seems that Your Majesty can really hold on. With so many beauties around, you can't even be tempted Hehe!"
"You stinky girl! You're just making noise!" Cui Ying frowned and said to Li Tengkong, "Sister Kong'er, why don't you go and talk to His Majesty? These are the new nobles. His Majesty must meet the previous ones. See."
Li Tengkong smiled and said, "Okay. However, sister, you are the queen, and your majesty will not listen to your words. Your majesty will not take the slaves' words to heart."
"Who said that? Your Majesty listens to Sister Kong'er the most. Now that Third Sister, Sister Yulian and I are pregnant, the one who serves Your Majesty the most is Sister Kong'er. People say that you are a pillow person. Sister Kong'er, you When His Majesty comes to spend the night in your palace, I will blow my pillow more often. Will Your Majesty still not listen?"
Wan Chun chuckled.
Third sister Yang and Yang Yulian smiled and said nothing. Feng Ming also covered his mouth and chuckled.
This is indeed the case these days. Wan Chun and Yang Yulian got pregnant almost at the same time. And the third sister Yang is pregnant again, while Su Hudong and Feng Ming often get together to practice martial arts to pass the time. Most of their energy is spent on training the female army, and they often leave the palace for just one day (the first high-quality text, all in %). Queen Cui Ying presides over the harem and is busy with affairs. She also has to personally take care of her son Zhang Qian. The only person in the palace who can often accompany Zhang Xuan is Li Tengkong.
Li Tengkong was greatly embarrassed and ashamed.She grimaced and said, "Sister Wanchun, please keep talking nonsense!"
The seven girls stayed together in adversity and did not change their previous habits after entering the palace. They often gathered at Cui Ying's place in the middle palace, so their relationship became more and more intimate, and they spoke very casually to each other.
Cui Ying also laughed, "Sister Kong'er, His Majesty is going to spend the night at your place tonight, please take the opportunity to tell His Majesty."
Li Tengkong blushed and bowed, "Yes, I obey."
¡¡
¡¡
That night, the emperor came to Li Tengkong's palace to spend the night.
Of course, before coming to Li Tengkong's place, he went to Wanchun, Yang Sanjie and Yang Yulian one by one to ask about their pregnancy status, and then returned to Li Tengkong's place to rest.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask Your Majesty to go to the Empress and the other sisters to rest more often in the future. I am here" Li Tengkong knelt there and said softly.
Zhang Xuan frowned and said in surprise, "What's wrong? Kong'er?"
"It's nothing. I just feel that His Majesty favors Kong'er too much" Although Wanchun was joking in the daytime, Li Tengkong also felt something in his heart. Recently, the emperor had indeed come to her too frequently.
Although the emperor came here every time, he did not always have a good time with her, but talked with her more about national affairs and military affairs.
Zhang Xuan pondered for a while and then said with a smile, "Kong'er, you don't have to worry too much, I have my own opinions. Besides, I don't always come to your place. Whenever I have time, I will visit Wanchun and the others. I am pregnant and need to rest. Although I am resting in the harem, I often deal with state affairs and stay up late"
"Then, Your Majesty should go and summon those new nobles." Li Tengkong said with a smile.
Zhang Xuan frowned, "Did Ying'er ask you to tell me? I've already said, don't worry about this matter until I return from the expedition in person!"
Li Tengkong smiled bitterly and said quietly, "Your Majesty is going to conquer the rebels with force this time, and pacify Tubo. It can take anywhere from half a year to more than a year. I feel that Your Majesty should summon them once No matter what, they are all happy." They are His Majesty's concubines. How can they live in the palace without His Majesty's favor?"
