Chapter 1088 The emperor wants to divorce his wife

The Qinhuai River, which is full of scenery, seems to be in decline in the blink of an eye. The famous 16th floor has been deserted, and the brothels and pleasure boats are no longer lively. It seems that nearly 10,000 people are missing overnight. The water pavilions on both sides are empty, and the pleasure boats on the river surface are scarce, and even the tourists are greatly reduced. It can be imagined that the remaining pieces of decay will soon be left and become a paradise for snakes and rats.

The dignitaries and the romantic and talented men all felt deeply sorry for this. People said that the golden and pink capital had lost their charm.

In fact, the Qinhuai River is still the same Qinhuai River. Most people support Emperor Xuande's approach, because the rich and rich Qinhuai Fengyue and ordinary people are completely different from each other.

A large number of prostitutes controlled by the Jiaosifang were liberated, but did not return to their hometown happily as Zhu Zhanji thought, but chose to continue to work on the old business on the Qinhuai River.

Therefore, the Qinhuai River is still very lively, and the prices naturally plummeted, which has attracted countless people to fulfill their long-cherished wishes.

The monopoly position of the government has been broken, and the private brothels and pleasure boats need to face competition. It can be imagined that in such a situation, everyone must rack their brains, bloom with all kinds of flowers, and improve the quality of cheap and good service and projects. In time, it will not be difficult for the Qinhuai River to surpass its original prosperity in one fell swoop. Without the control of the government, the number of prostitutes will definitely show an explosive growth.

Xu Hao rode alone in a small boat. In the bright morning, the houses on both sides were looming. The faint mist seemed to be light smoke, covering the calm river surface and white walls and green tiles.

The misty mountains are lazily spread in the valley. The green green is faint and purple mist is long. At this time, Xu Hao's mood is very chic.

The boat shaking its oars and singing in a low tune, the boat was already swinging toward the reeds. Xu Hao stood at the bow of the boat and looked around. There was a red patch of green reeds, and the autumn scenery was all over the eyes.

He ordered Zhouzi to close the boat on the shore. He stepped on the fine grass and walked quietly through a few arrows. Suddenly, he heard the geese in the sky and looked up. The rosy clouds were bright and the fog was hidden, the clouds were high and the air was cool, and the northern geese flew south. It was "there was an easy year and the autumn wind was blowing."

Located in the royal garden west of the Forbidden City, there is an ancient Buddhist temple. Empress Dowager Zhang, wearing a coarse cloth hairpin skirt, knelt down to recite scriptures amid the crisp sound of wooden fish.

Xu Hao strode in. He followed Wang Jin, the eunuch in charge of the Qianqing Palace. Wang Jin was in his thirties and was of medium size. He looked gentle and kind. Zhu Zhanji had been with him since childhood.

Once the emperor and the ministers were born, there were no major personnel changes among civil and military officials, but the personnel and affairs in the palace underwent earth-shaking changes. Simply put, a group of eunuchs who were famous in history in the Zhu Gaochi era collectively ended, and a new group of eunuchs rose up.

Wang Jin was Zhu Zhanji's confidant. The emperor gave him two silver medals of "loyalty and courage" and "Golden Sable Guests". He did not hide anything from him. Wang Jin also transformed from the steward of the East Palace to the steward of the entire Forbidden City. He took care of the emperor with all his responsibilities.

In addition to Wang Jin, Zhu Zhanji appointed one of his confidants, Jin Ying, to take charge of the eunuch of the chief rank of the twelve jails, and Fan Hong served as the eunuch of Shangbao jails who was in charge of the jade seal. Yang Shiqi and other close ministers were all polite to them.

There is also a beloved eunuch Yang Qing who serves as the deputy of Shenji Camp. The other eunuchs are also responsible for supervising the imperial guard system.

When he walked to the door of the Buddhist temple, Xu Hao said, "I have something to say to the Empress Dowager."

"Yes, the young one is away. No one is allowed to go in and disturb me," Wang Jin said respectfully.

"Yes." Xu Hao didn't say anything more. Wang Jin's real name was Chen Wu, and he had some connection with him. He walked in.

In the Buddhist temple, Empress Dowager Zhang signaled Xu Hao to sit opposite him and spoke slowly: "Yesterday, the emperor asked to give Concubine Sun a treasure. Her status will be second only to the queen. What should come is coming. I should really listen to you at the beginning."

Xu Hao smiled bitterly. Sun Wangyue was not an ambitious person. It was not ambition to be the queen of the palace. Any woman who claims to be in line with a man would not be willing to be a second wife.

He would never interfere with Zhu Gaochi and his wife's choice at the beginning. Even though he knew that he was Wu Zetian, he just said tactfully that Miss Sun was still good.

The problem is that he said more and made mistakes. Empress Dowager Zhang seemed to blame himself, but in fact he was blaming him, blaming Xu Hao for not persisting at that time, and Xu Hao had to bear it, and there was no way.

Queen Mother Zhang said: "In theory, Wangyue was raised by me, but she was too intelligent and understanding. Neither the late emperor admired the smart children very much. Instead, the queen was silent and generous, with a very tolerant demeanor. I wonder why Taizu and her in-laws chose me? The choice of the queen is related to the country, and I have a clear conscience."

Xu Hao nodded and said, "I agree, but the couple of late emperors are all in love, but now there have been changes."

Empress Dowager Zhang sighed: "I know Zhanji's nature too well. I am brave and dare to do it. I will never give up until I achieve my goal. If I don't agree to him this time, he will definitely continue to get entangled. What do you think?"

Xu Hao was silent for a moment and said, "The emperor is an emperor after all. Don't cause a disagreement between mother and son because of this, otherwise the queen's situation will be even more embarrassing."

"Let me think about it again, I can't agree to him so easily." Empress Dowager Zhang smiled bitterly.

An hour later, Xu Hao appeared near the Qianqing Palace. He did not know the details of history and did not care about this matter. For ancient people, deposing the queen was a big deal, and he was considered a magical horse to him?

There is a saying that the family of heaven is selfless. In fact, it is not easy for people to divorce their wives. Instead, they can be determined to lose their wives. However, most men must point out the reasons for divorce due to reputation, parents, etc., that is, they have made seven mistakes. If they insist on divorceing their wives without any mistakes, the man will definitely be accused of being a heartless man and being ridiculed.

If Zhu Zhanji wanted to abolish the queen, he had to pick out Hu's fault, but Hu obviously had nothing big mistakes. In this way, the ministers would not agree. Through Zhu Zhanji's actions of cracking down on pornography, he could see his character. As Empress Dowager Zhang said, his son would not give up until he achieved his goal.

Xu Hao guessed Zhu Zhanji's reason. Now he may not have thought that a smart person would soon be in a dilemma.

The reason is simple and straightforward, and it is not difficult to achieve. In ancient times, many men did this. As the saying goes, unfilial piety is the greatest thing. A wife’s biggest crime is that she cannot have a son, and this is exactly what a husband can do. If you don’t have a family, you will get married.

A folk woman may go to sue and accuse her husband of not being able to have sex for a long time, and the fault is not on herself, but can a queen say it? Zhu Zhanji can go to Kunning Palace to sleep for a few days every month. As for whether or not the tadpoles are left, who dares to ask?

Zhu Zhanji likes to surf and hunt. Every time he goes out of the palace, Empress Hu always advises him not to be too much, which arouses Zhu Zhanji's dissatisfaction and annoyance. He doesn't like his wife very much and often vents complaining in front of Empress Dowager Zhang. On the contrary, Sun Wangyue never advises him, and even obeys him in order to please him.

In the Ganqing Palace, Zhu Zhanji invited Xu Hao in and said happily: "Uncle came just right. I originally wanted to kill Li Shimian. Since my uncle and other ministers all pleaded for him, I decided not to see him."

Xu Hao thought it was all my business? He said immediately: "Thank you, priest, for your magnanimity."

Zhu Zhanji asked expectantly: "Where is the mother?"

Xu Hao was speechless and had to say, "I should do my best."

"Ha! This is also considered repaying the favor." Zhu Zhanji seemed very happy.

Speaking of which, Li Shimian was a mixture of public intellectuals and angry young men in the Ming Dynasty, and was also a strange thing. The prison of the Jinyiwei was like his own, and he had nothing to do. As long as Li Shimian thought that the emperor was doing something wrong, he would blame him for his mistakes no matter what, and he would not give in in a single step in the debate, which would make the emperor often unable to come to Taiwan.

Many of his suggestions were correct and could be implemented, but there were always some inappropriate accusations, such as the emperor should not be close to women.

In history, Li Shimian offended Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi repeatedly and was imprisoned in the Jinyiwei and almost died. Fortunately, he was kind to a Jinyiwei Qianjia. Zhu Zhanji wanted to kill him and vent his anger to his father, but found that he did take the world as his responsibility and did not blame him.

The public knowledge of the Ming Dynasty was the real public knowledge, and he was devoted to the public. As for the modern public knowledge, most of them were a sensational shit.

Li Shimian in this time and space were often imprisoned for angering Zhu Gaochi, but was soon released. Zhu Zhanji was just using him as an article, and Xu Hao couldn't help but appreciate it.

Zhu Zhanji was indeed very happy. The benefits of letting Wangyue go to the Xu Mansion were revealed. As long as Xu Hao did not object to the deposed queen, the matter was half successful.

Jieshoutang, the whole family accompanied Xiao for dinner, and Xiao asked the children to drink some wine and make a fuss.

When the alcoholic order was punished, he told jokes. When Zhu Mingzhi was punished, Zhu Mingzhi said, "I have been coughing recently, so let me go."

"I'll drink on behalf of my sister." Xu Yu habitually reached out to get it. Zhu Mingzhi was right in front of him, raised his hand and hit his arm, frowned and said, "Have I used you?"

Xu Ye, who was not wary of his hand, slid and touched Zhu Ruizhu's cup, who was visiting, and the cup was slumped in Ruizhu's arms.

"Ah." Ruizhu stood up quickly and her cup fell on the carpet.

The cup was not broken, but Ruizhu was covered in wine. The others laughed and laughed.

Xu Ye apologized repeatedly, and Zhu Ruizhu laughed and scolded: "You two are tired of rewinding and I am so tired, so why don't you take it off for me?"

"Yes, yes." Xu Hao and other maids unbuttoned a row of buttons and helped her take off her coat.

Everyone saw Ruizhu wearing a small tight body with a large white silk embroidered with a big red peony flower. Xu Yunyu shouted: "Come and see the bride!"

This is not aimless. The Zhu family has long intended to marry one of Xu Ye and Xu Yu, one of Xu Yu’s two daughters. The Xu family is not clear about this, and only said that it depends on whether the children can get along with each other. Therefore, Xu Yu and Rui Zhu grew up together since childhood.

So the others took the opportunity to make fun of him. Zhu Ruizhu blushed and spat, "Are you still happy with me in front of Lan Xiang? I don't ask you all to take off your coat, and I don't call him Ruizhu."

As he said that, he picked up the wine pot and splashed it all over the table. Xu Yunsu and others were so scared that they hurriedly dodged away, not thinking that the wine pot was empty.

Xiao and other elders laughed, and Ruizhu said, "Even the wine pot bullies me. I brought the wine jar. I had to come and flood the Jinshan Mountain to relieve my anger."

Xiao said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, girl Rui, please forgive them for my sake. If you want to be a flood of Jinshan, I want to be the mother of Lishan."

The girls and women in the room laughed, and Binglan hid in Xiao's arms, making her laugh even more.

Jiuling said a few words about the Four Books in the name of a person around her. After everyone calmed down, Zhu Mingzhi said: "Xiaohong, the boy sang the drum and attacked him. Hongzi didn't think he was insulted."

Ruizhu said angrily: "You are here to scold me again, I will tear your mouth carefully." Zhu Mingzhi chuckled and begged for mercy.

Seeing that it was his turn, Xu Yu drank and said, "I had an older sister called Shishu. Well, Shishu, there are hundreds of concubines, why should I read a book?"
