Confused, Jin Yang seemed to hear the Empress Dowager talking with the Royal Doctor, but he was unable to open his eyes and could not see the Empress Dowager's face.
Before he fell asleep again, he heard a clear voice consoling the queen mother, and did not know which girl ...
When he opened his eyes again, it was already evening, the red sunset glow shone through the window into the house, so that the room was also dyed orange-red, and the queen mother stood by the bed. She wore a plain palace skirt because of the sunset Become gorgeous.
"The emperor is awake?" Seeing him open his eyes, Empress Zhou turned to look out the window, and his voice calmed, "How do you feel?"
The maid serving in the house helped Jin Marting to sit against the head of the bed and exited the house with the director Bai Xian, so only Jin Margin and the Queen Mother were left in the quiet house.
"The son worried his mother, the son is not filial." Jin Yang covered his mouth and coughed.
"The sunset on the day when Ai's son died was as gorgeous as it is now," Empress Zhou looked at the sky indifferently, and the clouds there were like fire. "Ai's family cried all day and night, but the children who passed away It is impossible to resurrect. "
Jin Yang grabbed the quilt underneath, looked at such a queen mother, and did not speak. This was the first time he heard the queen mother privately claiming to be "mourning family".
"At that time, I was blessed by your mother, so I chose you among a few children, because I think her children must be outstanding." Although she is not very eye-catching to some people in the Sima family, but Jin Ma's biological mother, Sima, was an extremely distinguished daughter of the family, but it was a pity that she was jealous of her face, so that she would burn away the jade.
Unexpectedly, Empress Zhou would even mention her mother. Jin Yang stared at the woman standing by the window, trying to tell whether her words were true or false.
"The emperor without real power is just a tool for the court to fight for power." Empress Zhou went to the bed and pulled up the corner of the quilt to gently press it. "The first thing you have to learn is to look at people carefully and act with caution. . "
After saying this, Empress Zhou stood up straight, "Although the emperor has gone down, he still has to take a good rest for two days, so he will not have to go tomorrow."
Jin Yang lay flat on the bed and pulled up the quilt to cover the top of his head, but what he thought was the words of the empress dowager Zhou.
Is he really just a tool for court officials to fight for power and profit?
No one of his teachers paid much attention to him, and some even reminded him indistinctly that he should not become a puppet emperor. But is the person who said this really loyal to him, or ... has another picture?
"The emperor." When Bai Xian came in, he saw the emperor's whole body covered in the quilt, worried that he would smother himself, and he dared not reach out to expose the quilt, so he whispered to him.
Jin Mart lifted the quilt that was covering his face, and there was no slight sorrow on his face. If it wasn't for his cheeks to be red, he wouldn't see anything wrong with him.
"When I fainted, it was Zhang Chengxiang's empress dowager?" Zhang Zhonghan was teaching him today, so apart from him in the entire Qiankun Palace, only Zhang Zhonghan had the highest grade.
"Yes," Bai Xian hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's just that Zhang Chengxiang was so worried about the emperor that you didn't think about letting the empress come to tell the queen mother after the emperor came to explore your veins."
Zhang Zhonghan was born in a humble place. He entered the dynasty with filial piety as a disciple in his childhood. Now he is the right prime minister of the dynasty. Although the right prime minister is not as powerful as the left prime minister, but he can win such a position in the middle of the dynasty, which is born in a family, and it is obvious that he is not an incompetent person.
Jin Yang was silent for a long time and said: "Zhang Chengxiang has a lot of affairs between China and the DPRK. In the future, what he teaches will allow Mr. Gu to share part of it so as not to overwork him."
Bai Xian lowered his head and listened in silence.
"By the way, is there anyone else around when the Queen Mother arrives today?" Jin Yang took the medicine under the court lady's help, and suddenly remembered the little girl's voice he heard when he was confused.
"Today the Queen Mother called Miss Gu Jia Er into the palace, because she was worried that the Queen Mother was hurting her body too much, so Miss Gu Er accompanied the Queen Mother, but only left after giving you a gift through the curtain."
Jin Yang nodded when he heard the words. During the past six months, the Queen Mother summoned Miss Gu Jia Er into the palace several times, so he heard about the woman.
Since it is Mr. Gu's daughter, it should be good to think about it.
Jin Yang no longer asks, Bai Xian naturally does not talk much, but just sighs in his heart, Gu family's father and daughter are really tolerant, the father is respected by the emperor, and the daughter is favored by the queen mother. If the future empress do not agree with the emperor, I do not know how to deal with their father and daughter.
In recent days, Gu Changling has been a little leisurely, because the emperor is sick, and his emperor has also taken sick leave, so when he has nothing to do, he takes his son and daughter to the suburbs of the city to check his guards.
The family in the capital, if not too dispirited, will raise some guards for their own farming or take care of other villages. There are nearly tens of thousands of people, and hundreds of people. These guards have no ordinary citizenship, but the "private property" of the family.
There are not many guards registered under Gu Changling ’s name, only about 800 people, and the 200 guards brought by the Yang ’s marriage, the total number of guards for their family is 1,000, compared with the big families such as Sima and Li. Up, this number can only count fractions.
The first time Gu Rujiu knew that he actually had "private soldiers", the whole person was stunned. Later, he slowly learned that the family would have such guards, and the world would usually help the host to farm and care for the family. The courtyard, when the world was in chaos, became the master's armed force.
This is one of the reasons why the family is still standing even if the dynasty is changed. It is no wonder that the iron family, the flowing dynasty, and the family such as the Sima family and the Li family are proud.
In the history of her previous life, there was a period of prosperity of the family, but later because of the gradual concentration of the imperial power, the family gradually lost their former status, and finally dissipated in the historical torrent, becoming empty and famous but without real power. Fame.
Although it is still called a family, the rise and fall of shame is tied to the emperor, and the glory of the past is gone.
In Gu Rujiu's view, the Dafeng dynasty where she is now is already a period of decline for the family, because the royal family has mastered the main military power, and although the family can still maintain guards, the number must be registered and reported to the court. There are even restrictions on the quantity of iron and bronze, etc., and it is easy not to exceed the amount, otherwise it is a "crime of rebellion."
The royal family was cooking frogs in warm water, but the families fell into this big pot for cooking frogs for glory and prosperity, but they were still unconscious.
Gu Rujiu knew that this was an inevitable evolution of history, and she could not be the one who pushed the wheel backwards.
What's more, Gu Family's status in Beijing, prosperity of the family, and the rise of the royal family, have little effect on them.
To put it bluntly, the Gu family is nothing more than a nobleman with a family shell. Nearly a hundred years ago, Gu's family was almost kicked out of the family because of too much decline. Later, when the former emperor rearranged the family tree, the Gu family happened to have two capable people who were reused by the emperor, and then they barely squeezed into the ranks of the second-class family.
Since then, the influence of the aristocratic family in the DPRK has begun to decline unconsciously, but the royal status has gradually risen. Although it is wrong to say that his ancestors were abdomen, Gu Rujiu had reason to suspect that in the event that the family was gradually declining, there was the handwriting of the two ancestors of their family.
Whenever he thought of this, Gu Rujiu took a long breath, and then turned his head to be her happy and happy lady. Such a deep and ideal thing, her delicate and flowery, don't worry about it.
Anyway, as long as her loved ones are safe, she can't care about other people.
After arriving in Biezhuang, Gu Rujiu and his party received the warmest hospitality. After riding the horse with the two elder brothers for a while, she could not bear the heat and hid back into the house.
Gu Changling, who was listening to the report from Zhuangtou, saw the children walking in and smiled and said, "I know that the three of you will be unbearably hot. Go and drink the Qushu soup."
After drinking Qushu soup, Gu Rujiu walked to the side of his eldest brother and elder brother, wanting them to talk about the central gossip of lace.
Gu Zhiyu had just entered the DPRK two years ago and is currently working at Hongyun Temple. This place is relatively quiet on weekdays, which is equivalent to the emperor's private and exclusive diplomatic secretary department. When the neighboring small countries paid tribute to Dafeng, the first person who could not offend was the officials of Hongyun Temple.
"What can be interesting," Gu Zhiyuan smiled. "After the emperor ascended the throne, several small countries have sent special envoys to Jingnagong, some farther away are still halfway. But these are some poor and backward. There is no place worth saying. "
Gu Rujiu said with a smile on his face: "You can't be blindly arrogant, you know you know yourself and you can win everything, right?"
Seeing the appearance of her sister, Gu Zhiyu wiped her head with a smile: "Relax, there are a few in the center." It is impossible for North Korea to really be relieved of these small countries with honors, but some things will not be put It's just plain.
Fortunately, after seeing him not talking, the sister did not insist on asking again, and Gu Zhiyu was relieved.
Gu Rujiu saw that his elder brother was relieved, smiled secretly, and walked around the yard with a few maids. After going out, she saw a few children secretly looking in at the gate of the courtyard. She asked Baolu to send some cakes to these children.
Today's weather is extremely sultry, and she has no appetite at all. In this weather, the cakes will easily break if they are not eaten. It is better to give these children a full stomach.
"Girl," Baolu came back after delivering the pastry, and was about to speak, but she saw several gray-black mice suddenly popping out of the corner, frightening her complexion, and was busy blocking Gu Rujiu's face.
Fortunately, these mice did not pounce on people, but rushed out of the courtyard door, and several guard houses outside chased them.
"What's going on in these two days? I just heard the children say that in the past two days, mice often came out of the corners, and the dogs in Zhuangzi often barked," Baolu said, looking up God, "This day is so hot that even the animals can't stand it."
Gu Rujiu's heart jumped when he heard Baolu's complaint, and he felt something was wrong.
