MTL - Farmer of Shu Han-Chapter 1147 Pan's
Chapter 1147 Pan's
Although Zhou Yu died young, he died too early.
But to be honest, most of Sun Quanneng's proclaiming himself emperor, and even Wu Guoneng's territory today were laid by Zhou Yu.
This point, even Sun Quan dare not deny: the lonely is not Zhou Gongjin, not the emperor.
After Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan asked the prince Sun Deng to marry Zhou Yu's daughter, and at the same time asked Zhou Yu's eldest son to marry his eldest daughter Sun Luban, and also asked Zhou Yu's second son Zhou Yin to marry the daughter of the clan.
Even Zhou Yu's nephew can be appointed as a general because of this.
The Zhou family was extremely prosperous.
It's a pity that emperors are mostly merciless and ungrateful.
Time is a ruthless killing knife.
Thirty years is enough to make people in the world forget about meddling.
For many emperors, thirty years is long enough to thank a courtier for his merits.
Zhou Yin was demoted to be a commoner because of his crimes, and went to Luling in vain.
Zhou Hu was called by Sun Quan as "dangerous sexual behavior, and it is appropriate to use it to cause disaster", which can be regarded as completely cutting off his future official career.
The Crown Princess, who has always been good and gentle, was shocked and at a loss when she learned of what happened to her brother, and ran to find the Crown Prince crying and interceding:
"The adult died young, and the elder brother died young. The concubine and the second brother are still young, so they have to depend on each other."
"Now that my second brother has violated the national law, my concubine dare not excuse him. It's just that in ancient times there was a 'Eight Discussions'. I only hope that His Highness can look at your past meritorious deeds and persuade His Majesty to let the second brother reflect on himself in a different place. crime."
Where is that place in Luling?
It is not where the "outstanding talents" of later generations are located, let alone any natural treasures.
In Luling during the Three Kingdoms period, when going out, there were either mountains or water, dragons (that is, crocodiles) swam all over the rivers and lakes, tigers walked all over the mountains and all over the ground, and mosquitoes flew all over the sky...
Even if you stay behind closed doors and become a cultivator of immortals, one day you will be inexplicably contracted miasma and die suddenly.
Not to mention being demoted there as a commoner, even if it is an official, it is not worth it.
That is a little bit better than being demoted to Jiaozhou.
Sun Deng and Concubine Zhou have always been in love, and he was quite helpless when faced with his wife's crying:
"What Mr. Xi said, General Wei and other senior ministers, have already made it clear to His Majesty, but His Majesty is now in a state of righteousness, so he can't easily listen to people's words."
Having said that, he comforted Concubine Zhou and said:
"Recently there have been a lot of things happening in the court, and His Majesty is upset. Wait for this period to pass...cough cough cough!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly covered his mouth and coughed.
"Your Highness, how are you doing?"
Concubine Zhou was so frightened that she shed tears when she saw Sun Deng like this, and helped the prince to sit down, "Are you all right? Is it okay?"
As she asked worriedly, she helped stroke her back.
Sun Deng coughed for a while, then let go of the hand covering his mouth, breathed back and forth several times, trying to slow down his tone:
"It's okay, it's just that the old disease has relapsed because of the winter, just take a rest."
Last winter, the prince's adoptive mother Xu was seriously ill, and Sun Deng rushed to Wu Jun day and night to visit.
Xu's family still failed to survive in the end. Sun Deng was so sad that he didn't even eat a drop of rice for several days, so he finally helped the coffin to be buried in person.
Just at this time, Sun Quan's favorite concubine, Wu's uncrowned Empress Bushi, also died of illness in Jianye.
Sun Deng was urged by Sun Quan to rush back to Jianye day and night.
This time and again, even the iron body couldn't stand it, and Sun Deng fell ill all of a sudden.
Although the body slowly recuperated later, the wind and cold finally took advantage of it and sneaked into the body, and finally the root cause of the disease fell.
Every time the climate changes, or every time there is a wind and cold, if Sun Deng is not careful, he will cough continuously, and his qi and blood will be hot and dry.
Looking at Concubine Zhou's worried gaze, Sun Deng smiled and comforted him:
"I'm really fine. What you said just now, although I'm afraid no one in the court can persuade His Majesty, there is still one person who may be able to help."
Concubine Zhou's eyes lit up: "Please speak, Your Highness."
Sun Deng lowered his voice: "The harem."
Concubine Zhou was startled: "The harem?"
"Yes." Sun Deng nodded and said, "In the past, when Empress Bu was here, she could often persuade His Majesty. Now that foreign affairs are chaotic and there is no master in the harem, His Majesty's internal and external problems are not smooth. It is reasonable to get angry easily."
"If at this time, someone can stand up and appease His Majesty, maybe it will have a miraculous effect."
Concubine Zhou and Sun Deng have been husband and wife for many years. After hearing this, they already understood what Sun Deng said:
"Your Highness means, Mrs. Yuan?"
"Exactly." Sun Deng nodded, "You entered the palace in the name of greeting the elders, went to see Mrs. Yuan, and said that I wanted to see her and discuss something."
After the two wives of Xu Bu passed away, Emperor Sun Quan, Crown Prince Sun Deng, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty reached an agreement to establish Mrs. Yuan, who was known for her moral integrity, as the queen.
For this reason, Sun Deng was even willing to call Yuan Shi his mother—of course, if Yuan Shi really became a queen in the future, she would naturally be the prince's aunt.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Yuan thought that she was ordered to restrain her son and her daughter, so she flatly refused.
But although Mrs. Yuan didn't want to be a queen, she had a good relationship with Sun Deng.
When she learned from Concubine Zhou that the prince wanted to see her, she did not refuse.
What Sun Deng didn't expect was that after the two met, Mrs. Yuan not only refused Sun Deng's request to call her mother as usual.
Even another request from Sun Deng was flatly rejected:
"I am not the master of the harem, how can I do things that are presumptuous? If I agree to His Highness, what is the difference from seeking the harem?"
But Mrs. Yuan is virtuous after all. After thinking about it, she said another thing:
"The position of empress is not only a matter for your majesty, but also a matter for the prince, and it is also a matter for all the officials in the court."
"If there is no one in the palace who can take the position of queen, why not choose some newcomers to enter the palace. In this way, it is impossible to find a virtuous and virtuous daughter, who can be the mother of the world."
Sun Deng was a little puzzled.
Speaking of business, why did you suddenly bring up such a thing?
Besides, is it what a son should do to ask his father to find more young mothers for himself?
He opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to answer.
After Madam Yuan finished speaking, she didn't explain too much, she just gave the prince a meaningful look, then got up and left.
Mother's ceremony is the highest honor for a woman.
If you say you are not moved, it is a lie.
But Mrs. Yuan knows that there is only one queen in Emperor Wu's heart, and that is Bu Lianshi—at least for now.
Now there are concubines in the palace, one counts as one. In the heart of the emperor, no one can compare to the empress.
The Emperor’s longing for Empress Bu has not yet passed away. Whoever dares to express his desire to become Empress at this time will most likely be disgusted by the Emperor.
Yuan doesn't understand what later generations say "the best way to forget a relationship is to start another relationship".
But she knew how to get the emperor out of this emotion as soon as possible.
Because Emperor Wu misses Empress Bu, it does not mean that he is dedicated.
Otherwise, Mrs. Xu was not happy to have too many women around His Majesty, so why was she sent back to Wu County?
The reason why Empress Erbu can favor the harem is not only her appearance, but more importantly, she is not jealous and often actively recommends beauties to His Majesty.
It has been almost two years since Empress Bu passed away. Everyone in the palace wanted to compete for favor, but no one wanted to recommend a newcomer to His Majesty.
If this continues, His Majesty will only miss the kindness of Queen Bu even more, and will only miss Queen Bu more.
So...if there is a newcomer in the palace, it will probably make His Majesty happier, right?
In this case, as long as the prince takes the opportunity to make some requests that are not too excessive, His Majesty will naturally agree.
And the life of everyone in the palace will be easier.
Sun Deng sat there for a long time, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time:
He really couldn't figure out why Mrs. Yuan would give him such a suggestion.
Sure enough, within a few days, news came out from the palace, saying that Mrs. Yuan believed that the palace had not let people out of the palace for many years, causing many palace ladies to be overage.
So she suggested to His Majesty to let some palace people go home, and then replace some newcomers in the palace.
Madam Yuan, who has always been virtuous, made such a suggestion, which surprised many people.
Over the years, the income of Wu State’s treasury has not been very good, otherwise, Wu State’s money would not be getting bigger and bigger.
It costs money to select newcomers in the palace.
Palace servants who have let go of their age will also have to pay travel expenses when they go out of the palace.
Change to before, don't say whether this matter can pass.
Even if it can pass, how long it will take is still a question-who will pay? Where does the money come from?
But what people didn't expect was that the prince, who has always been known as a wise man, was silent on this matter and didn't speak out against it.
just suggested:
"If women are selected among the people, it will not only consume time, but also cost money and food, and will even disturb the people."
"If you don't choose from the wives and daughters of officials who committed crimes first, for example, there are many daughters of officials and officials in the weaving room dedicated to weaving in the palace, and you can choose the best one from them."
"If you can meet the requirements of the palace, you don't need to choose from the people. In this way, it can also reduce the burden on the people and the court."
Hearing the prince's proposal, Sun Quan praised him again and again, saying that the prince is sensible and sympathetic to the people, which is really rare.
Since both the emperor and the crown prince have said so, everyone naturally has no reason to object.
After some time, there was an official office for the wives and daughters of criminal officials. A group of women were selected and the list was sent to the palace at the same time.
Among them was a woman, surnamed Pan Mingshu, who was a descendant of a minor official.
The person in charge of selecting the maids informed Sun Quan of the matter, and at the same time selected Pan's painting from among the many portraits and presented it to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan, who was close to the age of ears, stood up suddenly when he saw Pan's portrait, and pressed the amber Ruyi firmly on Pan's portrait.
In the end, there was only a "pop" sound, and the amber Ruyi was actually broken.
Sun Quan didn't realize it, and saw him say in surprise and joy:
"This is indeed a goddess! I see that she looks so sad, but she is so moving, if she can be made happy, how stunning would it be?"
Lv Yi, who was standing on the sidelines, approached a little presumptuously, glanced at the portrait, and said with a smile:
"The villain heard that this goddess died because of her father's sitting method. She and her sister were sent to the weaving room, so she worried day and night, seldom eats, and her body is slender and soft."
The school affairs office has the right to inspect, and they have checked the details of the list of women sent to the palace one step ahead of time.
Lv Yi knew very well what Sun Quan liked, so he had already made preparations.
Seeing that Sun Quan really fell in love with Pan at first sight at this time, he naturally rushed to make fun of him:
"If she is lucky enough to accompany His Majesty, it will be like jumping from the swamp to the clouds. I am afraid that there will be no time for joy, so how can she be so sad like now?"
"Your Majesty Jieshi, naturally you can see the stunning beauty of the Goddess every day."
Sun Quan was already pleasantly surprised, but now he heard Lu Yi's words, he was even more happy, and quickly issued an edict to send a carved wheel imperial chariot to the weaving room to take Pan's family into the palace.
After entering the palace, Mrs. Pan washed and bathed, and was dressed up before being sent to Sun Quan.
When Sun Quan saw the real person, he couldn't help being a little stunned.
But see:
Li Shu is in the age of jasper, with a peerless beauty, low emerald hair, rosy cheeks, and perfect body and figure, the most pitiful thing is the two black eyebrows, light frown and slight frown, which seems to contain resentment.
Seeing her bend her willow waist lightly, she prostrated herself on the seat, whispering softly, "Pan Shu, the sinful girl, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Sun Quan felt even more charming when he heard his charming words.
"Get up!"
Sun Quan stepped forward, helped Mrs. Pan up, looked up and down at the woman in front of her, the more she looked at her, the more she fell in love with her.
The more he looked at her, the brighter his eyes became, he just wanted to hold her in his arms, loving her endlessly.
Seeing this, Lv Yi led the people and retreated quietly.
When he returned to the school office, he called someone over:
"Go, tell the weaving room in the palace, let them take care of Pan Shu's elder sister more in the future, and don't let her be wronged."
"But Zhongshu, the Pan family, is very likely to be connected with the East Palace."
"Why don't I know?" Lu Yi's face was gloomy, "It's just that His Majesty has already taken a fancy to the Pan family, and we can only make up for it before it's too late."
After being a mere prisoner, he did not enter the weaving room, and his reputation spread to the ears of His Majesty. If it was said that no one contributed to the flames, Lu Yi naturally did not believe it.
But as His Majesty's eyes and ears, the School Affairs Office is not vegetarian.
There are indications that Pan's matter is not planned by the East Palace for a long time, it should be a temporary idea.
East Palace can send this girl to the palace, but the school affairs office may not be able to win her over.
The school office has a lot of say in the weaving room that is in charge of weaving—after all, the school office has a special trading channel with Xinghanhui.
It was night. As expected, Pan Shu did not leave the palace. I heard that she was going to sleep with His Majesty that night.
The news that the newcomer entered the palace and was extremely favored by His Majesty quickly spread.
The ministers in the court, these days when they go to the court, seeing His Majesty's face, they seem to be much happier than in the past.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief.
This is also good, and there is no need to go to great lengths to choose girls among the people.
Prince Sun Deng took the opportunity to play to the emperor:
"After committing an official, he was still able to receive the favor of the emperor. Therefore, the general Zhou Yu made outstanding achievements, but his descendants were exiled to the frontier without pardon. Comparing the two, I am afraid that the world will criticize your majesty for emphasizing color and despising virtue."
"I invite Your Majesty to ask for the pardon of Zhou Yin's crimes, return the trilogy and restore his title, so as to reassure the old honor."
When Sun Quan was proud of the spring breeze, coupled with the prince's attitude in the selection of the palace maid, he finally agreed to the matter.
It's a pity that before Sun Quan's edict was sent to Luling, the news of Zhou Yin's death due to unacceptable water and soil spread to Jianye one step ahead of time.
This news made Sun Deng stare at him, and he almost missed it in one breath.
I have worked so hard for so long, but my basket was empty, and my busy work was in vain.
In a hurry, he fell ill again.
On the other hand, Lu Yi couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the crown prince's statement in the court hall.
In the general situation of the court, the school affairs office has no say at all.
But in trying to figure out people's hearts, the court officials are far inferior to Lu Yi and others.
In addition to these days, he has already checked everything about Pan's family.
"Pan received the favor of Donggong and was able to enter the palace. If Donggong can use this to make friends with him, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us!"
"Who would have expected that after the crown prince dared to say that Mrs. Pan was a criminal in court, his belittling intentions were obvious to everyone."
"It must be known that Mrs. Pan is a dangerous woman, and now she has suddenly become a dignitary. If she learns of these words, the little friendship between her and the East Palace may disappear."
