Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 353
The empress issued a decree to reprimand the hall officials. This can be said to be a rare thing in the Ming Dynasty for so many years, and it has never even happened before.

After all, the last person who could do this was Queen Ma. After her death, the Ming Dynasty did not have such a powerful woman.

It's just that Yu Xin and others have nothing to say at this moment, and they are walking towards the Meridian Gate under the supervision of female officials and eunuchs.This is not something to be ashamed of. If you want to talk about Xu Miaoqing, you can have it, but at this moment, you can only kneel obediently.

The reason is naturally very simple, Xu Miaoqing is the queen and the king, while Yu Xin and others are just ministers, the difference is so obvious.

In fact, some people could guess that the queen's sudden order was because Yu Xin contradicted the emperor before.It's just that everyone didn't expect that it was the queen who fired the first shot, which caught many people by surprise.

When Yu Xin and others were walking towards the Meridian Gate, Xu Miaoqing was dressed in court clothes, looking so dignified and grand.The female officials, eunuchs and others clear the way, and follow carefully.

The palace can't hide any secrets, especially some 'big events', which can be spread in an instant.

There has been no queen in the Ming Dynasty for 15 years, and it has been too long since a queen reprimanded the officials in the Ming Dynasty, and even seemed to meddle in the affairs of the government.

When Xu Miaoqing and his group walked towards Fengtian Hall, Lian Qiongqiong just took her daughter with her, and Wang Shi, who was about to give birth, was very envious but it had nothing to do with her.But Li Shi and others, Wang Shi and others are just envious. The difference in status between them and the queen is too obvious, and there is no way to compare them.

As for Zhu Biao's concubines, those who had children followed their children out of the palace, and they were talking about the Lu family.Those who have no children are basically guarding Zhu Biao's tomb, and their fate is basically determined, either guarding the tomb or becoming a monk.

Fortunately in the misfortune, Zhu Yunying objected a few years ago, otherwise Lao Zhu really didn't mind sending these people down to accompany his son.The system of sacrificial burial had already revived in the Yuan Dynasty and the previous Ming Dynasty.

As for Lao Zhu's concubines, they should be envious and calm at this time.In the past, the Empress Dowager was in charge, and now there is Xu Miaoqing. These concubines just think that mothers are more expensive than children, and it is good to have children.

Don't think too much about the others, they are just concubines, and they are just concubines in other people's homes, but they cannot enter the ancestral temple.

When Shuangquan heard the news, he immediately reported the situation to Lao Zhu.

Old Zhu, who was looking at the notebook, was stunned, put down the notebook and said, "You bastard, how many times have we said that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics! If we say it, this bastard will probably ignore it."

Shuangquan and the others lowered their heads and did not speak, and they did not have any right to speak at this time.

Lao Zhu glanced at Shuangquan and said, "Take out our court clothes. Since the emperor wants to make trouble, let's help make it big."

Shuangquan immediately turned around to get the court clothes, Lao Zhu asked again, "The empress's decree is about Hongcang?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Her Highness the Queen reprimanded the officials of the Household Department, saying that Hongcang should be negligent in allocating supplies." Shuangquan hurriedly turned around and said again, "The queen was furious and ordered the officials of the Household Department to kneel at the Meridian Gate, and the Queen went to Fengtian Hall to plead guilty !"

Old Zhu squinted his eyes slightly, and scolded, "This is the empress's business alone? Hongcang, that is our empress dowager's business! She loves the people the most when she is here, and these bastards dare to neglect?! Say, these individuals in the palace are also lazy, relying on their status and children, dare to rest?!"

Lao Zhu was furious because Hongcang was founded by his most beloved wife, Empress Ma.When Empress Ma was here, she was the most frugal. The concubines and princesses in the palace all helped weaving and doing some needlework.Over the years, Daming has become richer, and the life of the people in the palace has improved, but some good habits have also been lost.

Old Zhu was furious, and said, "Decree, except those who are pregnant or have young children, regardless of age, all go to kneel in front of the ancestral temple! Our Zhu family must be lively when doing business!"

Well, the concubines in the harem who want to watch the excitement are having a hard time, regardless of whether it is Lao Zhu's concubine or Xiao Zhu's concubine.Including those princesses who are not married, this time is not going to be easy, and they are all going to 'accept'.

For his own family, Lao Zhu has never lacked.But Lao Zhu also has this characteristic of being cruel to his own family.

Remembering something, Lao Zhu said, "Go to the school to pick up the prince, we will wait in Fengtian Hall!"

Shuangquan was taken aback, and corrected in a low voice, "Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor handles political affairs in the Wuying Hall!"

"We can see it!" Old Zhu was amused, pointing to Shuangquan and said, "It's right for our emperor to ask you to listen to us! You can't think about things with an elm head. If you have some brains, you can follow along." emperor!"

Shuangquan quickly showed a flattering smile, "Your Majesty, this servant is dull and only knows how to obey orders."

"Since it is an order, we will do whatever we say!" Old Zhu said angrily and funnyly, "Be smart, you have been with us for so many years. That Wang Cheng'en is better than you, and I don't know about your bastard. I haven't made any progress in all these years!"

This matter is interesting, the eunuch next to Lao Zhu was arranged by Zhu Yunying.As for Wang Cheng'en, it was Lao Zhu who arranged him in front of Xiao Zhu.

If they didn't know this, they would have thought that Daming's Tian family had something that their grandparents and grandchildren believed in, and that they were putting eyeliners on each other's side.Those who didn't know thought that the two great eunuchs, Shuangquan and Wang Chengen, had no real loyalty to them.

There are some things that really don’t need to be thought about too much. Little Zhu doesn’t have that many thoughts, and Lao Zhu actually doesn’t have those thoughts either.

Lao Zhu, who hadn't worn court clothes for a long time, changed into court clothes. Although he is now full of silver hair, but at this moment, this burly old man is walking like a tiger, and the Hongwu Emperor who made the world tremble once again showed his powerful aura.

At this moment, in front of Fengtian Hall, Xu Miaoqing knelt gracefully, "Qizou Your Majesty, my concubine is here to plead guilty."

Many people are actually paying attention to this side. Seeing the queen pleading guilty, many people think this matter is interesting.

Xu Miaoqing didn't care so much, she was still a little excited to sing the double reed with the emperor, and she knew that this was an important matter for the court, so she couldn't be careless, she needed to cooperate well.

Zhu Yunying came out from the Hall of Martial Arts, and just asked, "What is the Queen's crime?"

Xu Miaoqing was very cooperative, and just said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, relying on the trust of the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty, I will entrust the affairs of the Red Warehouse to my concubines. The Red Warehouse is run by the Empress Dowager, and it benefits the scholars of the world. The ministers and concubines are dull and responsible. Entrusted by His Majesty."

After saying this, Xu Miaoqing put his hands on the ground and raised his forehead with his hands. This is a complete set of tasks.

Zhu Yunying's expression was serious, without the slightest hesitation, "Since the empress is convicted, the fine will be fined for half a year, and the expenses in the palace will be halved!"

This doesn't sound like a trivial matter, if people who don't know the inside story think that the emperor is angering the empress.Reducing the expenses in the palace is obviously punishing the queen.If he was any more stupid, he would have thought that the queen would fall out of favor!
Since even the queen was punished, the others must not be able to escape.Don't look at the Queen's responsibility now, but everyone can understand that something went wrong in this matter, and it is obviously impossible for the Queen to be solely responsible.

Since it was not the responsibility of the queen alone, since even the queen was punished, no one else should think about it.

It seems that there are really many people who will be unlucky with them, and this is no small matter.

The couple who sang the oboe didn't care what other people were thinking, and both felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Zhu Yunying felt happier because Xu Miaoqing's work efficiency was very high.And Xu Miaoqing is very smart, when she realized that Zhu Yunying wanted to make a big deal, she set the fire on fire, so that it would be convenient for Zhu Yunying to do some operations in the future.

And Xu Miaoqing, who seemed to be punished, was also the first time to show his presence in the court.Directly let the six ministers go to the Meridian Gate to kneel, that is, Queen Ma had such ability at that time, but now she has it.

Although Xu Miaoqing also has self-knowledge, she is still far from the emperor's grandmother, but she can still show her sense of existence after all.This is not a punishment, it is the emperor's trust in her.

Xu Yingxu ran to the Governor's Mansion in a panic. He knew about this matter, or he only knew part of it.

Xu Huizu's complexion was not good, and he reprimanded, "This is a festival hall, what is the crime of trespassing without reason?"

Looking at the eldest brother who has been disciplined since he was a child, Xu Yingxu couldn't care less at the moment, "Brother, the queen asked the Minister of the Household Department and the servant to kneel outside the Meridian Gate. The queen went to the Hall of Martial Arts to plead guilty, and now we all know! "

Looking at the panting second brother and hearing Xu Yingxu's words, Xu Huizu was also taken aback for a moment.

Naturally, Xu Huizu couldn't be more clear about the character of his own sister.Although her younger sister is the tiger girl of Jiangmen, she does not lack the ability to make decisions, but she is also very disciplined.

Now directly let the first-rank officials go to kneel outside the Meridian Gate. If there is no particularly convincing reason for this, it is estimated that there will be a lot of people and a lot of bullets in the court tomorrow to impeach the queen.

A little flustered in my heart, that is definitely indispensable.But Xu Huizu, who had calmed down, believed that his sister would definitely not mess around. He believed that the queen's trouble must have been ordered by the emperor.

Old Zhu, who was walking towards Fengtian Hall, couldn't help being happy when he saw Little Zhu running towards him yelling.

"Grandfather is us, and your great-grandmother is even more virtuous. Grandpa Huang is our standard son, and grandmother is also a general. They are all first-class blood. The father is cruel, black-bellied and powerful, and your mother is also decisive." Temperament. Our great-grandson has the qualifications of a great emperor!"

I forgot all the comments made by Zhongrenzhizi before, it was because the emperor missed it.Just relying on the blood of our great-grandson, it's impossible to make a difference!
