Chapter 51 Lingxi Transformation

Just when everyone ridiculed Concubine Mao for being thankless, the emperor's brother turned to Yanxi Palace and felt pity for Concubine Mao. He even used the festive celebration of the Empress Dowager's birthday to confer Yin Yuejing as Zhaoyi. The beautiful conquered dress and Yin Zhaoyi's nourishment during the long dry season were really envious. But no matter what, the wives and concubines of the imperial family generously donated money and worry about the national crisis. Whoever dared to wear gold and silver in the capital showed off, and more or less jewelry was used to share the worries. He actually shared a lot of the heavy responsibilities of the Ministry of Revenue and the Sinong Temple.

The summer of the tenth year of Zhengzhang was soon accompanied by the sound of cicadas. The Jingbian Army led by Prince Yuche of Pingyang went west to Helan and used the advantage of terrain to snipe the Tielhehe rebels. More than 30,000 enemies were annihilated. What's more important is that Bagen, the second prince of the Hehe rebel side, was injured in this battle and died in the late Xia epidemic due to improper treatment. It can be said that this battle was a decisive battle to reverse the situation. The historian of the Great Zhou Dynasty later named him "Helan Battle to Punish the Rebellion".

When the news came, the entire capital was happy, especially He Yunsheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was said to have burst into tears in the hall. It was really painful. In fact, the battle was not only the population, but also the money and food. There is no saying: Before the three armies move, food and grass will go first. The Northern Army officers and soldiers are more than 100,000, and thousands of miles from the northwest front. How much military pay, military rations, and military supplies are all made of gold? Moreover, there are many Helan Mountains, and it is really a bottomless pit when fighting.

Wherever the military expenditure is paid, we must not find the Ministry of Revenue. At that time, Mr. He looked at his colleagues in the Ministry of War and wanted to take them out and sell them for money.

In addition, the severe drought in winter and the lack of water cultivation this spring, the price of grain was rising "stopped" and was about to drive He Yunsheng crazy. He was guarding the warehouse of the Ministry of Revenue. Whoever asked him to ask him for money? He was anxious. He saw that the imperial edict gave him blood. After the blood was released, he still couldn't stop crying. He had to cry again and then scolded Chen Shun, the commander of the Northern Army, Yu Che, the general of the Jing Border Army, and Xu Hark, the general of the Right Army, and called him "the traitor of the stupid country."

Later, Zhen Zhiping's summary was more objective, "The money and food consumed in war are indeed huge. The donation of charity from the maids in the harem is really a drop in the bucket. It is mainly based on the Ministry of Revenue, so it is difficult for Lord He. But things are divided into two sides. War also consumes Tiele's national strength. You don't know that when you didn't go to the border, how many herders really risk being shot and killed when they are shot, because Dazhou is rich, and Tiele's bitter and cold land is mainly produced by cattle and sheep. Even the nobles faced no food at any time. At that time, my grandfather had already seen their unanimous weakness and formulated the time when Qiu Shouchun Station, strengthened the walls and cleared the fields along the war, and strictly prevented the enemy's plunder. Compared with the supply capacity of both sides, dragging people to death. Although this is suspected of inaction, it can guarantee the minimum casualties. After all, it is better to add money than to add life."

I strongly agree with General Chen’s truth. Human life is really the most precious, and the cruelty of war lies in the fact that sacrifice is a normal state.

Of course, this is a later story.

After retelling, the details of this are all thanks to the complaints of the second emperor's brother Yu Pei. Since the war broke out, the second emperor who had originally studied in the Ministry of Revenue had a real difference suddenly - he negotiated with Lord He for money. In Yu Pei's words, it was like going up to the mountains and sea of ​​fire. He often sucked back for a few hours and was blocked back without hesitation. But it was hard to say that this job was not rude. But this job could not be shirked: You are the prince, and you want others to go, but you are not spoiled directly? It is a humiliating and a little bit of trouble, which delays Your Majesty's explanation.

He was often afraid that Mother Zhen would be worried, and he was still a bachelor, so he had to nag me for extra complaints. After listening to this for a few months, I deeply felt that in two years, the second emperor's talkative words could be comparable to the grudges of the deep boudoir, and decided to solemnly advise Mother Zhen to choose a good daughter-in-law as soon as possible!

Mother Zhen was indeed a very sensible and good mother. After a hundred days of Duangui Concubine, she deliberately or unintentionally met some of the ladies of the official family with the Empress Dowager. Soon, the accurate letter was reported, saying that she was Mr. He's legitimate daughter, Miss He San, and her boudoir name was Luo Zhen.

This candidate really made the second emperor cry.

However, he was a filial son, and finally agreed with grievance. Although he was a little gloating, I still felt full of comfort and congratulations on my face.

Of course, except for the father-in-law being a little tough and stingy, there is nothing wrong with this marriage. I have also seen Miss He San. Putting apart from her background, she is also a very cheerful and bright lady with a romantic temperament and a top-notch one.

The second emperor's brother was about to reach twenty years old and was indeed at the age of marriage. Morin Zhen was anxious to hold her grandson. Once it was finalized, she rushed to go to the Empress Dowager to discuss the wedding date.

The Queen Mother played with her gilded phoenix tail armor, listened quietly to the words of Mother Zhen, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, the sky is getting hot day by day, and the people in the palace are about to go to escape the heat. Due to the affairs of the court, our sisters have not been to Taiping Palace for many years. Why not summon Mrs. He and the daughter of He and teach them to open their horizons in the royal garden, which is also excellent."

When Mother Zhen heard this, Yu Pei said that after all, she was no longer a direct royal man. The Empress Dowager was doing face to his mother and son in front of her daughter-in-law and in-laws. However, she had always been cautious and asked: "This seems to be no precedent, let alone the emperor and concubines go and take the Empress Dowager with her. Wouldn't it be a mess for us old wives to follow us?"

The Empress Dowager always had a good temper towards Mother Zhen and smiled and said, "Sister, how old is the Ai family? Isn't it an old woman? Besides, there are only a few people in the emperor's harem. If you old sisters don't go, what's the point of watching these colorful geniuses alone?" After a pause, he said, "Harmony is considered peaceful recently, so it's better to bring her with you."

This is a matter of certainty. On June 20th, the auspicious day of the zodiac, the emperor's brother and the queen mother took a group of concubines, concubines, and a few other boudoir girls, and took chariots at all levels and rushed to the Taiping Palace under the escort of the Yulin Legion.

What I didn't expect during this period was that on the day of departure, I saw a familiar figure in the Yining Palace. I was surprised and happy, and I didn't care about the number of people, so I called out: "Sister Lingxi, why are you here?"

Lingxi smiled faintly and said in a voice: "Look at what you said, I will listen to it, and I still think that you are looking forward to me bad!" Although she had a gentle meaning, I still understood what she said, and it was difficult to say in detail that there were many people and many words. Instead, she stuck out her tongue and joked, holding her sister's hand and talking about clothes and jewelry.

You can't say that Lingxiru has been vegetarian for several years, and her figure has become more graceful and graceful. In addition, the newly popular pear blossoms and white smoke and cloud-like clothes in the capital are becoming more beautiful and charming. In the past, people said that among the three daughters of Queen Mother Zhen, Sister Longyue is as elegant as the bright moonlight, and the snow is bright and beautiful as the flowers of the three springs. On the contrary, Sister Lingxi in the middle is nameless. But at this moment, I feel that Lingxi, who has walked through loneliness, has learned to interpret her appearance with a quiet temperament. It is just right, but others cannot learn it.
