Chapter 474 The First War
In fact, Zi'an and Zhuangzhuang both know that no matter which palace they go to, there are concubine Yi's tricks and schemes waiting for them.
Concubine Yi didn't allow them to stay in Changsheng Palace for another reason, it was because Changsheng Palace was close to Xiwei Palace, if something happened, it would easily alert the emperor, and to put it bluntly, it would be easier to ask for help.
Today, Huiqing Palace is some distance away from Xiwei Palace. In front is the Xiaoning Palace where Concubine Gui and King Nanhuai lived. On the left is the abandoned Changsheng Palace. On the left is Yilan Palace where Concubine Yi lives. On the right is Cui. Concubine Cui's Caiyi Palace, Concubine Cui and Concubine Yi have a good relationship, which is equivalent to controlling Zian in the middle.
It's really a house that's under attack.
Murong Jie said before that after he left, King Liang and Prince An were in charge, but now that Prince An is also leading his troops to leave, the only person in charge is King Liang.
However, on the third day after the army set off, the emperor suddenly issued an imperial decree, making King Ye a first-rank Taiwei, surpassing the Minister of War to take charge of the military power, and assisting King Liang in managing the affairs of the court.
This is equivalent to the position of regent. Although King Liang has not been named a prince, he already has the treatment of a prince.
Many officials in the court shook their heads for Ye Wang being named a Taiwei. How can such a nonsense bastard be a Taiwei?
Moreover, the post of Taiwei had disappeared in Emperor Hui's dynasty, because the Taiwei was too powerful and was above the prime minister. Since Xia Huaijun's death, the court has not established a prime minister. After all the work has been done, the court, Chinese, military and military officials all feel that the emperor is sick and confused, and he actually left the power in the hands of someone like the Night King. Isn't this a joke?
The poor regent is now out to kill enemies for his country, but here the Night King is defeating Da Zhou.
The first nonsense thing that King Ye did was to make the emperor decree to remove Concubine Liang from the cold palace, saying that it was to make her repent.
The second thing is to send the Seventh Prince to the school grounds, and ask Wu Zhuangyuan to teach him riding and archery. In order for him to concentrate on learning riding and archery, he is only allowed to return to the palace once a month.
The third thing is that there is no big boss in the harem now, so he suggested that the eldest princess Murong Zhuangzhuang should temporarily act as the empress and rule the sixth palace.
The fourth thing is for the emperor to issue an order to officially appoint Xia Zian as the head of the inner palace to manage all expenses in the palace.
The fifth thing is that Sun Fang'er is not the concubine of Nanhuai now, and she is the expelled daughter of the Sun family. She should not stay in the palace and cause criticism. She should leave the palace immediately, but because the king of Nanhuai wants to marry her, the palace can pay silver, and give her a house to live in.
These five frivolous things, separated separately, are not big things, and the emperor will naturally allow them.
However, if you think about it carefully, the Night King did these few things really well.
The first thing is that the deposed queen was moved out of the cold palace, which meant that King Liang's biological mother was no longer a sinner, because she was still Concubine Liang because her title had not been deposed.
The second thing is to throw the Seventh Prince to the school grounds. The champion of Wu belongs to him, so he restrains Concubine Yi.
The third thing is that the harem is ruled by Murong Zhuangzhuang, which means that Concubine Yi has been directly seized the right to assist the sixth palace.
The fourth thing is that Zi'an is in charge of the accounts of the palace. If Concubine Yi and Concubine Gui want to eat more supper, it depends on Zi'an's face. Then, in the future, Zi'an can put on the face of Wan Niang and deal with a lot of people in a legitimate manner. A person who comes to ask for something.
The fifth thing is to separate Sun Fanger from the imperial concubine Nanhuai Wang. The court paid for Sun Fanger to find a place to live, so Sun Fanger was naturally supervised by the court.
After the emperor promised these five things, Concubine Gui and Concubine Yi were so angry that they had runny noses.
Zhuang Zhuang is very happy to accept this order in the face of danger, and it is not difficult to rule the six palaces, because she is the princess of Zhenguo and the emperor's little aunt, so she doesn't have to please the emperor, she will naturally be ruthless.
No, just took office as the president of the harem, Zhuang Zhuang also made three orders.
The first way is to move the noble concubine to Ci'an Palace, the palace where the empress dowager used to live. The noble concubine has always wanted to live in Ci'an palace. For the first one, she was going to observe the filial piety. Originally, after seventy-nine days, she could withdraw the spiritual seat of the ancestor, but Zhuang Zhuang said that in order to express grief, the spiritual seat would be set up for three years.
This means that the noble concubine must, in the name of a concubine, keep filial piety for her original sister, and must not leave Ci'an Palace at will for three years.
The second way is to mention Concubine Yi's status and canonize her as a noble concubine. This is a good thing for Concubine Yi, and finally surpasses all concubines. Now that there is no queen in the harem, her status is the highest.
But, as the old saying goes, the higher the position, the greater the responsibility.
Princess Zhenguo said that she was not in good health, and that she couldn't take care of the tedious affairs of the harem, so she entrusted some of the work to Concubine Yi, for example, to reduce the annual salary in the palace, and asked her to explain it to the concubines one by one, and plan various tasks. For such large and small events and even evening parties, on the first and fifteenth day of each month, the ceremony of offering incense and offering sacrifices must be presided over. Because the Murong family has an ancestral system, the Avalokitesvara Sutra must be burned on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. The imperial concubine must complete it independently.
As a result, Concubine Yi Gui was so busy that breathing was a luxury.
The third way is to take Chen Liuliu into the palace to accompany her.
This is harmless, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that Zhuang Zhuang has firmly blocked the Chen family from everyone. When Chen Liuliu enters the palace, can Mrs. Chen still be idle? This old thing must have entered the palace as well, after all, the twelve generals of the Chen family had all gone to war, and this old lady came to live in the palace in the name of taking care of her granddaughter who was preparing for pregnancy.
This is Murong Zhuangzhuang's will, who would dare not allow it?
After all, the old lady is a married woman, and she has a title, and she lives in the palace for a while. As long as the incumbent is willing, no one can question it.
This battle, before it even started, has already been a secret contest.
This Murong Zhuangzhuang and the Night King caught Concubine Yi and Concubine Gui by surprise.
Then, the newly appointed Chief of the Inner Palace, Xia Zian, issued three more orders.
The first thing is that all the maids and eunuchs in the palace are in charge of her, that is to say, the head of the inner palace has robbed the chief eunuch's job.
what does that mean? Needless to say, everyone knows that Boss Xia has the lifeblood of the workers in the palace. If she is not happy, she can send palace maids at will. If you want to please the errand, you have to please her.
The second thing is that the imperial dining room will no longer provide meals for each palace. The small kitchens of each palace are made by themselves. The daily work of the imperial dining room is to serve the emperor's food, and then distribute the ingredients of each palace. The manager, Xia Zi'an, personally inspects it every day, which means that it is not easy for someone to poison the ingredients.
The third one, this one is not an order she can give, she found Zhuang Zhuang, and Zhuang Zhuang distributed it.
She began to carry out a strict rectification of the imperial hospital. All the imperial doctors began to practice acupuncture and moxibustion, taught by her, that is to say, she became the master of all the imperial doctors.
The ultimate purpose of this order confuses many people, she is very happy!
But if you think about it deeply, you will know everything.
Then it would be a breeze for her to do something about someone's condition.
People in this palace eat whole grains, who wouldn't get a little sick? After passing the news to the imperial doctor, Xia Zian knew who had hemorrhoids and who was constipated.
Does this make any sense? Yes, why not?
