take a wife to support the family

Chapter 495 The Writer and the Emperor 5
Ever since he was a child, Emperor Tianqi had never seen a few women worthy of admiration.

It is true that his birth mother was kind and Ke Shi was loyal, but in his view, they were all ordinary women, not only could not understand what he was after, but even they themselves were not respectable.

And real person Puxiang has seen female scientists, soldiers, teachers, artists... He has no expectations for women these days. How can an existence that lives from his father at home, marrying from his father, and living dependent on others, have a noble and shining soul? ?

However, when the empress spoke in a firm tone in the twilight and said calmly, "I will die for my country", the emperor was suddenly shocked.

How can this woman not be afraid at all?He blurted out a question.

The queen actually smiled slightly, and she said softly: "I am the queen of Ming Dynasty, and the people of the world support me with their blood and sweat, so I should take responsibility. On the day of the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the concubine will not live alone."

She is so firm, women in deep palaces are rarely as calm and strong as her, and women of later generations will not be as proud and stubborn as her exclusive nobles.

The emperor couldn't help being moved and frightened.He has been on the throne for seven years, and he has evaded responsibility for seven years. He never thought that the status of emperor means not doing whatever he wants, but an extremely heavy responsibility.

No wonder the empress always persuaded him, even more Zhao Gao than Wei Zhongxian, and Hu Hai than him, no wonder he and the empress couldn't talk about each other, it turned out that this woman had the world in her heart!

For a moment, cold sweat ran down the emperor's forehead, and he forgot to ask why the empress only mentioned dying for the country, but she was indifferent to him who only had two years to live.

It was the queen herself who mentioned this: "Long live, how did you know these things?"

The queen thought to herself, is it possible that Ke Wei got such a horrific thing from somewhere, or is it a monster monk talking nonsense to confuse people's hearts?
If this is the case, she has to persuade the emperor again.Although the folk proverb says that good words do not persuade a damned ghost, and Long Live never listens to others' advice, but as a queen, how can she abandon responsibility for self-protection?
The emperor was silent for a while before he said: "I... had a dream. I'm afraid that my ancestors and ancestors would not be able to see me wandering around all these years. During those days when I was sleepy and unconscious, they entrusted me with dreams and told heaven's secrets, so I know dozens of things. What's going to happen next year."

He was talking nonsense, the queen looked at him suspiciously for a while, and said softly: "Since Long Live said so, I will believe it."

A disrespectful slander, long live your ancestors, how many of your ancestors are not fooling around... Talking about wandering, why didn't the ancestors warn the Wu Temple? If there is such a thing, the Forbidden City will not be able to do it You live in this one.

The queen was too calm, the emperor was already on the verge of collapse, but he would go crazy if he was stimulated at most, who knew that after a few words, he was calmed down by the queen. Although countless thoughts were still surging in his chest, the self-destructive impulse was suppressed down.

The emperor smiled wryly and said: "In the dream, I saw that I would die two years later, and the Ming Dynasty would perish 19 years later, and the country would change hands..."

He has read the Ten Days of Yangzhou and the Three Massacres in Jiading, and he knows the law of keeping hair but not hair. He also knows that hundreds of years later, the land of China will be ruined and weak by the family from outside the customs. Angry, how many times the country was almost wiped out, how many times it got up from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, licked the wound and waited for the next blow, but was unable to fight back.

One family and one surname are small things in the world, but the people are so innocent, they should not have endured such a great horror from hell, the queen has self-esteem, and the emperor also has self-esteem, and his self-esteem will never allow the Ming Dynasty to fall into the hands of foreigners, let alone Don't allow Huaxia Shenzhou to become a hunting ground for overseas countries, and they will be the meat!

The queen's eyes flashed: "After the death of Long live, who will take the throne?"

The emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he had been avoiding that person.He used to look down on the subjugated monarch, but now, that person is his beloved brother, and he understands how difficult it is to rescue the wrecked ship of Daming...

The emperor's suspicion and dominance made the emperor full of hostility towards his successor, and the identity of his elder brother made him subconsciously erase the hostility, so he had forgotten about that person for many days.

The emperor's lips trembled slightly: "Xin Wang... You Jian!"

Xin Wang Zhu Youjian, his fifth younger brother, is only 15 years old this year. He is beautiful and gentle. In the memory of the emperor, the studious boy never allowed himself to show a trace of sloppiness in front of others. Nineteen years later, he was forced to climb Meishan, desperately saying: "Let the thieves split my body, don't hurt any of the people."

The country was handed over to him, but it was broken into such a state, and he was told to be Yao and Shun, but he became the king of subjugation. How could Tianqi not hate it?
However, Tianqi absorbed the part of the memory that belonged to Puxiang, knowing how his younger brother worked hard and thought hard. The hand that used to hold the paintbrush picked up the ink brush, and the eyes that used to read the beauty looked at the country. In the past 17 years, he has not had a single day of sleep. Even because of working hard on state affairs without sleep for three days, when he went to visit the sick elders in the harem, he couldn't hold back and fell asleep in the palace, so that he lost his dignity in front of others...

He is so miserable.

How could the emperor be harsh on his younger brother, obviously he was the one who forced the responsibility on him, he remembered the promise of "my younger brother will be Yao and Shun", and he really forced himself to be a holy king like Yao and Shun... But in this world, how can he tolerate it? Xia Shengjun?
The emperor is naturally domineering and suspicious. This time, if he can overcome the hurdle two years later, he will never hand over the power in his hands to others.In this world, he has to be in charge by himself, and he has to carry the heaviest burden by himself.

The moment the emperor said the name of King Xin, the empress opened her eyes wide, showing surprise for the first time.The emperor was deep in his own thoughts, and his expression was unpredictable. After a while, the empress heard the emperor say: "If the fate cannot be changed, after two years, you must support him. If... If I can change my fate, you can say these words today." Pure dream talk, but there is a hint of leak..."

Before the emperor could finish his words, the empress Linglong understood what he meant, and immediately knelt down and raised her hands to swear to the sky: "Long live today, I whispered to my concubine, but if there is any leak, the concubine will be destroyed on the same day, and I will not be detached forever!"

The emperor shook his head: "That's not necessary..."

Because Yuemo's chest was wide open, the emperor's speech became more relaxed and smoother.Once shared, those weighty secrets seem to become light and easy to solve.

Confidentially this night, from then on, the empress is not only the emperor's wife, enemy, and the woman who raised his children, but also his friend, comrade-in-arms, and his secret ally.

The emperor was finally able to sleep with his eyes closed, but the queen couldn't fall asleep. She chewed on the message revealed in the emperor's words: Xin Wang ascended the throne, which meant that the emperor could not leave a child after all...

The queen stared at the emperor. The 21-year-old young man was handsome, but because he had always been playful and stubborn, he also had a bit of tyranny and childishness.At this moment, his brows were tightly frowned, he was afraid that in his dream he was still thinking about how to save Daming from peril.

The queen couldn't help sighing, held the emperor's hand, and took a light and shallow breath.

Early the next morning, the emperor summoned Xin Wang. Since the disaster in June, this was the first time the emperor saw Xin Wang. He had not seen the emperor's elder brother since he was young, and he had long missed him. It is unconcealable joy.

He walked quickly to salute, and said: "Your minister, long live the elder brother of the emperor!"

The emperor's eyes were heavy, and he looked at the fair and beautiful young man in front of him, and became suspicious: he is the emperor of the real dragon, but Zhu Youjian should also be the emperor, so it's hard to say that he will not be destined.

Youjian is so respectful and admired today, but he really doesn't have the slightest ambition, and really doesn't want to covet the position of supreme being in the world?

The emperor almost forgot that he told the empress last night that if he could not pass the test two years later, Zhu Youjian would take over the throne.At this moment, his six relatives do not recognize him, he only recognizes the position of the Son of Heaven, and he will destroy anyone who dares to covet him!
Zhu Youxiao's temperament was a bit tyrannical, coupled with Puxiang's scheming and decisiveness, he almost immediately ordered Zhu Youjian to be killed to prevent future troubles!
Fortunately, this time Zhu Youxiao's ideas prevailed. He was confused in everything, but he was kind to his brothers.Over the years, the money has gradually become empty. The emperor even treated several uncles very harshly, but he never wronged this brother in the slightest.

Zhu Youjian has not yet shown any rebellion. If he is likely to become the emperor in the future, he will be killed. The emperor is no different from Shang Zhou, Hu Hai, Sui Yang and others. Sooner or later, he will be implicated by his tyranny.

Xin Wang didn't see him for half a day, and carefully raised his eyes to look at the emperor, his eyes were clearly full of worry, the emperor suddenly moved in his heart, pulled him up, and asked, "What are you worried about?"

The young man hesitated for a moment, then said respectfully: "Brother, the emperor, I will overtake you if I die, I dare to ask Long Live to expel sorrow and sorrow, and take care of the dragon's body more."

What's wrong with this kid?
The emperor frowned, not very happy: "How many times have I said, don't talk to me like that."

King Xin was a little helpless: "Brother Emperor, Ci Jiong is gone, you are sad, and we are all sad too, but you are the Son of Heaven, you should not indulge in sorrow for a long time, even for the sake of the world, you should take care of yourself."

The emperor changed the topic by himself: "Call the emperor to have more births? Why did you follow me when you were young and call me?"

Xin Wang actually blushed, he had not grown up at this time, he was two points more delicate than a girl, and after a while he said: "When I was young, I was not sensible, and I called him big brother all the time, now, Wan Sui is the emperor, You Jian is a minister, I dare not presume."

The emperor said depressedly: "Don't call him Big Brother, call him Brother Huang Zongcheng?" In Puxiang's memory, many novels, film and television dramas called it that way, and the emperor thought it was more pleasing to his ear.

His temper could change from moment to moment, thinking of this, he immediately forced King Xin to call him Brother Huang, but King Xin couldn't help it, so he had to respectfully call: "Brother Huang."

The emperor was delighted: "We will always be called that from now on! Also, when you see the empress, you should call her your empress, or your sister-in-law."

King Xin was dumbfounded, not understanding how crazy his brother was.
