Empress Dowager Sun smiled lightly, as if she didn't mind.

Hearing this, Sun Jizong's heart tightened.

His hope is to let his daughter enter the harem, but he also understands that Sun Keqing's character, being the emperor's younger sister is naturally likable.

But where can the mother honor the world?

Hearing what the queen mother said at this moment, Sun Jizong was a little flustered for a while, because he still couldn't figure out what the queen mother's attitude was.

......

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager wants you to go to the Compassion Palace."

Qianqing Palace, Wei Zhongxian trotted in, bowed and reported.

"I know."

Zhu Qizhen put down the memorial in his hand, and was about to get up and go to the Compassionate Palace: "The queen mother can tell, what is it?"

"Report to Your Majesty, I didn't say anything."

Wei Zhongxian carefully helped the emperor up: "However, Lord Sun and Miss Sun are also in the Palace of Compassion."

"Ah."

Zhu Qizhen nodded slightly.

In his memory, this cousin Sun Keqing has always been lively and lovely. Anyone in the world would be cautious when meeting the emperor, but this cousin is not afraid at all when she sees Zhu Qizhen, talking and laughing.

Perhaps it was because she was too close to the queen mother, so she only regarded Zhu Qizhen as a cousin, and forgot his identity as emperor.

"Your Majesty is here."

Outside the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Wei Zhongxian shouted, and waited outside the palace, but did not follow in.

"Slaves pay homage to the emperor."

The eunuchs and maids knelt down one by one to salute.

"My minister sees the emperor."

Sun Jizong bowed his hands and said, "Keqing, why don't you come over and see the emperor?"

Sun Keqing stood up playfully, and came to Zhu Qizhen's side, with a smile in her eyes, she gave a blessing: "I have seen my cousin."

"Cousin has grown up."

Zhu Qizhen smiled slightly.

Empress Dowager Sun said with a smile: "You brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, Emperor, you should take your cousin to visit the Imperial Garden."

"Okay, cousin please."

Zhu Qizhen instantly understood what the Queen Mother meant, and this was an opportunity for Sun Keqing to get along with him alone.

It seems that the queen mother wants to hug her grandson.

In the imperial garden, among the rockery and flowing water, all kinds of flowers are blooming, fragrant and beautiful.

After walking out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Sun Keqing took Zhu Qizhen's hand, not treating her as the emperor at all, but as his cousin.

Wei Zhongxian led a group of eunuchs and maids, who sensiblely kept a short distance away from the emperor and Miss Sun, and followed leisurely, ready to serve at any time.

"Cousin, although the imperial garden is beautiful, it's tiring to look at it every day, and there's nothing interesting about it. I heard that boating in Xiyuan Lake is very fun. Take me to go boating."

Sun Keqing's bright eyes opened wide, full of anticipation.

It is conceivable that this beautiful girl with a lively nature has visited the Imperial Garden so many times that she is tired of seeing the beautiful scenery in the garden. It can be seen that her relationship with the Queen Mother is very unusual.

"Rowling is fine, but don't mess around on the water."

Zhu Qizhen understood this cousin's temperament, and was afraid that she would be too lively and active, and an accident would happen on the lake.

In the lake of Xiyuan, rowing is really fun.

Zhu Qizhen just happened to relax after working hard on state affairs in recent days.

......

In the Cining Palace.

"Sister, Your Majesty has grown up, it's time to choose a concubine to enter the palace."

"Look at Your Majesty and Keqing, a cousin and a cousin, childhood sweethearts since childhood, you know Keqing's thoughts for His Majesty, but you don't know, does Your Majesty like Keqing?"

Sun Jizong sat down facing the queen mother, drank tea, and waited until there was no one in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and then called the queen mother a younger sister at the right time, and got closer.

When he said this, he didn't really want to ask the emperor if he liked his daughter, but to test the empress dowager's mind.

Parents to enrich people.

As long as the queen mother orders, although Sun Keqing may not be able to become a queen in one step, it is no problem to become the emperor's concubine.

Ming Royal Ancestral System.

The selection of concubines by the emperor has always been handled by the queen mother.

"Actually, the Ai family likes Keqing quite a bit, but the Ai family is just worried that what if the emperor doesn't like Ke Qing's character."

Empress Dowager Sun said bluntly.

Obviously, the focus of her attention is whether the emperor likes it or not. After all, she only has such a son, and she will not force the emperor to do things he doesn't like.

Moreover, this is also for the sake of my niece Sun Keqing.

If he could not win the favor of the emperor, even if Sun Keqing could enter the harem with the help of his aunt, it would definitely not last long.

Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji abolished Queen Hu and made her the queen, which is the best example.

"Let them develop freely. If the emperor really cares about Keqing, the Ai family will still make decisions for Keqing."

After a long time, Empress Dowager Sun said these words to reassure his brother who was keen to turn his daughter into a queen.

"Sister, it's not that brother worries more."

"According to the ancestral system, the emperor's selection of concubines starts with the draft."

"If my brother remembers correctly, when the war with Oala is over, you will be drafted for His Majesty."

"Recently, my brother heard that many ministers gave gifts to the eunuchs and maids in the palace, hoping to send their daughters into the palace."

Sun Jizong frowns, very anxious.

He knew that the daughters of several courtiers were equally as good-looking as his daughter, and they were dignified and virtuous, so it could be said that they were both talented and beautiful.

Among them is the beautiful daughter of a minister, under the arrangement of her father, she went to learn the art of pharmacological massage.

Obviously, he came prepared, to compete with his daughter for the favor of the emperor.

This made Sun Jizong very worried.

"This is the ancestral system!"

"At least a dozen or so concubines must be selected among the beautiful women, and then the queen will be established. If Keqing can please the emperor, is virtuous and virtuous, and can be a mother to the world, the Ai family will definitely support it, but... "

The Empress Dowager Sun didn't want to hurt the relationship between her brother and sister, so she didn't continue talking, but she had already stated her position.

Chapter 8 I am with you, and the god of iron courage enters the enemy's camp with one sword

After playing with Sun Keqing in Xiyuan Lake for a while, Zhu Qizhen returned to Qianqing Palace.

Empress Dowager Sun left Sun Keqing in the Palace of Compassion and Peace. When the Empress Dowager was lonely, she could chat with the Empress Dowager about family affairs and relieve boredom.

As far as Zhu Qizhen is concerned, now that the Wala army is invading Datong Mansion, and the border is still fighting bloody battles, how can he have the heart to soak in the gentle village?

The most important thing is that Zhu Qizhen understands the queen mother's thoughts.

Sun Keqing is Zhu Qizhen's cousin and the niece of the Empress Dowager Sun. If Zhu Qizhen and Sun Keqing go on a lake tour, he will make love to her.

Then the Empress Dowager will definitely take this opportunity to take advantage of the situation and designate Sun Keqing as the empress, take over the Kunning Palace, and become the mother of a country!

This is not the result Zhu Qizhen wants to see.

The Empress Dowager presides over the emperor's draft, which is the etiquette of the Ming ancestors, and he can't control it.

But among the show girls, choosing who to be one's concubine and who to make one's empress still has to be done according to one's own wishes.

Zhu Qizhen didn't want his marriage affairs to be completely dominated by the Queen Mother.

......

Datong Prefecture.

Yu Qian took office as the coach.

At the same time, 30 reinforcements from the important town of Nine Frontiers arrived in the starry night, bringing in [-] red-clothed cannons.

This made Yu Qian and Hu Zongxian, the commander-in-chief of the Datong Mansion, very excited.

Now, with the addition of the original defenders, the strength of Datong Mansion has reached nearly 35, with nearly [-] artillery pieces of various types, and countless food, grass, and military equipment.

Moreover, Yu Qian took office with Shenji Ying.

The Shenji Battalion is completely different from other Daming troops.

The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion each carried a fire system on their backs, gunpowder bags around their waists, and steel ball bags tied around their waists.

This is a musket!

In the era of cold weapons, this is a very advanced thermal weapon!

In the Ming Empire, firearms have always been the most important thing!

Before the reinforcements from the Nine Frontier Towns arrived, Yu Qian and Hu Zongxian could only command the soldiers and civilians of Datong Mansion to defend the city.

At that time, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had already tasted the sweetness of firearms when they fought against the invading enemies of Wala.

It has to be admitted that the Oirat cavalry galloped on the grassland all the year round, and they were indeed more brave and good at fighting than the Ming cavalry.

But even though they are extremely ferocious, they are afraid of firing cannons and shooting guns!

As soon as the cannon rang, the gold was ten thousand taels.

The cannons and muskets that cost a lot of money to build are indeed extraordinary, making the cavalry of Oala howl and their horses howling!

Almost within a day, Oala's forward troops were completely lost.

So much so that the 30 army commanded by Yexian stagnated, forming the current confrontation situation.

On the tower of Datong Mansion, Hu Zongxian said excitedly to Qian: "Master Yu, now that 30 reinforcements have arrived, Datong Mansion is as solid as gold, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Since then, he led 30 Wala troops to Datong.

Hu Zongxian has been stationed on the top of the city tower regardless of day or night. Whether he is dealing with official duties or eating, he has never left the city tower.

Yan Song, the chief assistant of the cabinet, is Hu Zongxian's teacher.

There is no doubt that Hu Zongxian is an out-and-out strict party!

In the eyes of the Chaotang Qingliu Party, as long as it is a strict party, it is a corrupt official, who seeks the people's fat and anointment, and harms the people, all deserve to die!

Naturally, Zhu Qizhen would not follow the suggestion of the Qingliu Party and replace Hu Zongxian.

As long as you have real talents and learning, and can work for me, I will use them!

The sea is inclusive of all rivers, can tolerate filth, and can also accommodate clean springs.

Moreover, the 30 defenders were able to travel day and night and arrive ahead of schedule. In addition to Zhu Qizhen's order, I am afraid it is also related to Yan Song's warning. The power of the chief minister of the cabinet is beyond doubt.

Yan Song is indeed a corrupt official.

But when it comes to big things, he is very sensible.

Hu Zongxian once led the soldiers stationed in Datong Mansion to swear with blood that if the Oirat army does not retreat, they will not leave the tower of Datong for a day, vowing to live and die together in Datong!

After Yu Qian took office as the coach, Hu Zongxian handed over the general power to Yu Qian.

Hu Zongxian has ruled Datong Mansion for many years and has a high prestige among the military and civilians.

At the beginning, he also had doubts about this elegant literati, Minister of War Yu Qian, but after a few battles, he saw Yu Qian's extraordinary military talent and fell in admiration.

"Sending Yu Qian here, Your Majesty knows how to use people well, it is really wise."

Hu Zongxian sighed, and then wholeheartedly became his deputy, assisting Yu Qian in fighting the enemy.

And Yu Qian also has no prejudice against his identity as a strict party, and the cooperation between the two can be said to be handy.
