Daming: From the Son of Heaven to the Leader of Comprehensive Martial Arts

"Yes, Queen Mother, I understand."

Zhu Qizhen nodded.

These days, he did feel a little tired physically, it was time to pay attention, and he couldn't go on like this.

Otherwise, in the long run, even if he is a martial arts master, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no health problems.

"The queen mother just made you a bowl of porridge with lotus seeds and bird's nest, drink it while it's hot, and warm up your body."

Seeing that Zhu Qizhen agreed to come down, Empress Dowager Sun smiled happily, and then handed a bowl of hot bird's nest porridge to Zhu Qizhen.

Seeing Zhu Qizhen drinking bird's nest, Empress Dowager Sun changed the subject and said: "There is one more thing, the Ai family has to urge you."

"Xiu Nu has been in the palace for three months, why haven't you made any movement?"

"Are you looking down on these beautiful girls?"

"Look at the Ai family, everyone is very good."

"The Ai family can tell you that you are the emperor, and your first priority is to preserve the royal blood, and the Ai family is also waiting to embrace the emperor's grandson."

Empress Dowager Sun babbled and kept admonishing.

Zhu Qizhen was speechless, dare you tell me this is the real purpose of the Empress Dowager calling him to the Palace of Compassion?

"My son understands."

Zhu Qizhen could only nod his head.

"Okay, the Ai family has nothing else to ask, you should go back and rest early."

"Yes."

Zhu Qizhen had just resigned, and before he walked out of the Compassionate Ning Palace, he heard the unquestionable voice of Empress Dowager Sun again.

"Come here, send the signs of the beautiful girls to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and let the emperor turn over the signs tonight."

Chapter 19 The body of pure yin, the little fairy Murongxian

At night, clean up outside the palace.

The eunuch sent by Empress Dowager Sun had already been waiting here, holding a purple plate in his hand with eighteen sandalwood plaques lined up on it.

On the wooden sign, the names, ages, native places and specialties of the show girls are written.

It's getting late.

If Zhu Qizhen reviewed a few volumes of memorials in normal times, he would go to bed and rest directly after eating.

"Your Majesty, the eunuch sent by the Empress Dowager is waiting for orders outside the palace."

At this time, Wei Zhongxian reminded in a low voice.

The eighteen beautiful girls living in Xiwan were all selected by the queen mother herself.

Of course, these show girls don't have any status yet.

If they are lucky enough to be flopped by the emperor and served in bed, it will be after the Spring Festival night.

Even if they can't be crowned imperial concubines in one step, at best they can be crowned as talented or beautiful. From now on, in the palace, they will have their own palace, identity and status.

"Let him in."

Zhu Qizhen's voice fell.

Wei Zhongxian immediately called an old eunuch in. After paying homage to the emperor, the old eunuch raised the purple plate in his hand high.

"Respectfully ask Your Majesty to turn over the cards."

The old eunuch said loudly.

This is the task entrusted to him by the queen mother. If the emperor doesn't turn over his cards tonight, he may have to stand outside the gate of Qianqing Palace all night.

Looking at the wooden sign on the purple plate, Zhu Qizhen also felt very fresh.

This is the emperor's flop?

Subconsciously, Zhu Qizhen picked up a sandalwood wooden sign, and was about to take a closer look at the wooden sign.

Unexpectedly, the old eunuch suddenly shouted: "Jinling beautiful girl, Murong Xian will be in bed tonight!"

After the emperor finished turning over the cards, the eunuchs and maids of the Qianqing Palace became excited.

Moreover, every court lady's eyes showed envy. This beautiful lady named Murongxian was chosen by the emperor to serve as her servant just after she entered the palace.

This luck is really a fortune, a blessing from the ninth generation of cultivation!

Zhu Qizhen picked up the wooden sign and looked at Murongxue's personal information.

"Murongxian, 16 years old, Jinling family, born in a family of martial arts, the fourth daughter of Jinling General Murong Wudi, innocent and romantic, charming, good at singing and dancing, known as Xiaoxian********Yinyueyin Born at the right time, it is a body of pure yin, and it is the most nourishing yang."

Murong Xian?

Murong Wudi's fourth daughter?

Known as the Little Fairy?

The body of pure yin?

Isn't this the little fairy in "Little Fish and Flowers"?

Zhu Qizhen became curious in his heart, what kind of girl is this little fairy with a pure yin body who nourishes yang most, Murong Xian?

Earlier, in the Compassionate Ning Palace, eighteen beauties appeared together with their heads bowed.

Zhu Qizhen didn't see their appearance clearly, but felt that these women had outstanding temperament, they were all beauties like no one in the crowd, but he certainly wouldn't remember every one of them.

……

Xiwan, the residence of Xiunu.

Under the meticulous service of the court lady, Murongxian took a bath in the flower bath, and after washing her white and clean, she changed into a gorgeous brocade robe, got on a special sedan chair, and headed for the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Palace of Heavenly Purity.

"Dong dong dong."

Murong Xian sat in the sedan chair, his heart beat faster.

She never thought that one day, she would be able to meet the emperor, let alone that she would be honored to serve the emperor in this life, and it was just tonight.

Three months ago, when I first entered the Compassionate Peace Palace.

She knew that the emperor and the empress dowager were right in front of her eyes, but she didn't dare to raise her head, because the female officials and eunuchs had solemnly warned all the beautiful women not to look up at the sky, otherwise it would be disrespectful.

And tonight, she will do the same thing with the emperor as the female officials told them... They were selected into the palace for that.

The sedan chair was moving forward unhurriedly, Murong Xian's pretty face was flushed, and her heart beat faster and faster.

the other side.

After Zhu Qizhen turned over Murong Xian's signboard, he returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhu Qizhen came across, three or four months have passed, and it is now the beginning of winter.

However, there is an earth dragon to keep out the cold outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and a charcoal incense burner inside.

The lights flickered, and the hall was extraordinarily warm and cozy, full of warmth everywhere.

Zhu Qizhen sat with his legs warming by the censer, thinking about the major affairs of the Ming Empire.

In the battle against Oirat this year, in order to wipe out the Oirat army, the Datong Mansion was flooded by the Yellow River, and the particles were unparalleled, but it received relief in time, did not cause a famine, and the people were properly resettled.

Hu Zongxian, the commander-in-chief of the Datong Mansion, not only has the talent to lead the army to fight, but also has the ability to manage government affairs.

There should be more such talents.

Because of the punishment of corrupt officials this year, many official positions are left vacant... well, in the spring of next year, we will have to conduct imperial examinations in spring, hoping to select some capable ministers!

Since Zhang Juzheng received the order to measure fertile land in the world, with the full support of Yan Song, the chief minister of the cabinet, land survey projects have been carried out all over the country.

It's just that the work of measuring land across the country has been more or less hindered.

Among them, the vassal kings have the most serious obstacles. The vassal kings from all over the country refuse to measure the land by the prefect.

"Frozen three feet is not a day's cold."

"Reform the system, obviously it's not something that can be done overnight."

"Shang Yang's reform, even with Qin Xiaogong's full support, took 20 years to achieve success, and Wang Anshi's reform ended in failure in the end."

"After all, this has touched the fundamental interests of the great families in the world."

"Many of these aristocratic families have been officials for generations and occupy high positions, and many of them are royal family members."

"I hope Zhang Juzheng, Yan Song and the others don't let me down..."

While Zhu Qizhen was thinking about state affairs, Wei Zhongxian entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation: "I report to Your Majesty, Murong Xian, a beautiful daughter of Jinling, orders from outside the hall."

"Announce her to come in."

"According to the order."

Wei Zhongxian bowed and left.

Soon, a beautiful and refined girl walked in slowly from outside the hall. She was wearing a brocade robe and a red embroidered cloak.

"Murong Xian, daughter of the people, see Your Majesty..."

The girl bowed her body and gave a blessing gift.

"Head up."

Zhu Qizhen spoke lightly.

Murong Xian heard a crisp voice, and when she raised her head, she was stunned on the spot.

Because she suddenly saw an extraordinary handsome young man standing in front of her.

She had imagined the appearance of the emperor countless times.

In her mind, the emperor must be majestic, full of promises, tall and mighty, with a big mustache on his face, and when he speaks, his voice is like Hong Zhong Da Lu, just like her father.

But when she raised her head, what she saw was a handsome young man.

"Is this young man the emperor of Ming Dynasty?"

Murong Xian subconsciously thought it was not.

However, who can appear in front of her, except the emperor?

"Murong Xian?"

Zhu Qizhen smiled lightly.

"The girl is here."

Murong Xian seemed a little restrained.

Zhu Qizhen was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and he was wearing ordinary clothes at the moment, not a dragon robe.

But in Murong Xian's heart, the emperor is extremely majestic, but this handsome young man is so approachable, it doesn't seem like an emperor.

Is he a little eunuch?

wrong!

And the boy's voice was deep and powerful, obviously not a eunuch.

And this is the Hall of Mental Cultivation, only the emperor can live here.

She has been in the palace for three months, and she is familiar with the rules in the palace. In the palace, only the emperor is a man.

During the past three months, she was taught all kinds of skills to serve the emperor and how to please him. Murongxian subconsciously believed that the emperor was a very fierce person.

And this handsome young man is very approachable.

Is he really the emperor?

It seems that it is not as fierce as in the legend.

Chapter 20 Murong Sisters Flower

Zhu Qizhen learned that it was the first time for Murong Xian to step out of the house this time.

"My parents said I was naughty and wouldn't let me go out. They made me study poetry, calligraphy and painting all day long, female dancers, and martial arts that I wanted to learn, but my parents wouldn't let me."
