36. Dandy (End)
What happened on this day is enough for most people living in Shengjing to remember it for a lifetime.
Especially Miao and Duan Qingsong.
The mood of the two of them now can be described as being struck by thunder.
Duan Qingsong was speechless, but Miao was so stimulated that she almost died suddenly. Her temper, which had been tormented by Duan Qingen in the past two years, was not as good as before, and she had just experienced ups and downs in life. Many of the personalities she had maintained in the past were directly destroyed. Forgot.
"How is it possible!! How is it possible!!!"
"Mother? Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Duan Qingen's face immediately revealed emotions such as worry, confusion, and strode forward to support the shaky Miao, "Mother, are you scared?"
He was very filial and repeated what he had said before in a detailed and slow tone to Mr. Miao, "Don't be afraid. My son has rebelled now. I am the emperor. You don't have to be afraid anymore. These soldiers are all my subordinates." , won’t do anything to our family.”
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
"Mother?!"
Duan Qingen looked at Miao who was screaming with despair with a worried face, and hurriedly helped others, "Mom, don't be afraid, mother!!"
"Are you all blind?! Why don't you hurry up and help Madam!"
With his reprimand, the surrounding servants who were shocked by the news that [his eldest brother had rebelled] subconsciously stepped forward to support Miao.
Mrs. Miao cried so hard that her face was filled with snot and tears, and she was in a miserable state.
And in front of her stood her step-son, who was dressed majestically and had an impressive appearance.
The stepson was saying to her, "For so many years, my mother has always treated me as her own. My son is not the kind of unfilial son who only recognizes kindness in life but not in kindness. I will always remember the way you treat me. Today I have accomplished a great thing." , and it will also allow you and your father to live a good life.”
"And the second brother."
Duan Qing'en looked at him with an expression like "Brother looks at his younger brother, the more he looks at him, the better", and turned to look at Duan Qingsong, who was pale and speechless. I respect my brother very much, and he is my mother's biological son. Mother can rest assured that my son will never treat his second brother badly. At least he has the position of a prince. How about giving him the best fiefdom?"
Mrs. Miao gasped for air, looked at Duan Qing'en who was looking forward to the future with a happy face, and then looked at her biological son with a white face, and finally collapsed completely.
Even if she was beaten to death, she never thought that the person who rebelled would be Duan Qingen, who had accomplished nothing.
If, if she had not planned to hand over Duan's father with her son just now, how could Duan Qing'en, who had always been pampered by her and admired her wholeheartedly, treat her badly.
Why, why did he come at this time?
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh-"
After the shrill scream, Miao couldn't breathe and fainted.
"Mother!! Mother!!! Mother, what's wrong with you, mother? Come on, come on, go find a doctor!"
Duan's father looked at his eldest son who was supporting Miao with an anxious face, and finally recovered from the series of events: "My wife and my youngest son wanted to kill me, and my eldest son turned his back on the emperor and wanted to welcome him as the supreme emperor."
He stared at the fainted Miao on the ground with dark eyes, as if he didn't recognize him. When a servant hurriedly responded and turned around to run out to find the doctor, he shouted angrily, "You are not allowed to go!!"
Duan Qingen turned around with a confused expression, his eyes full of worry, "Father, but mother..."
"She is such a snake heart!!!"
Father Duan simply roared and said these words. He had always been a soft-spoken scholar, but now his voice was broken with anger. You can imagine how much it stimulated him that his wife and son wanted to kill him. .
After roaring, he saw the eldest son, who had just conquered the capital, had a blank look on his face.
While Duan's father was proud of him, he was sad and distressed at the same time.
This child had secretly built such a huge empire behind their backs, which showed how capable he was, but he did not forget that such a capable Engeer admired the Miao family wholeheartedly and respected her as his biological mother.
This can be seen from the fact that he wanted to give them honorable positions as soon as he took over the country.
How should he tell him that the mother he always respected was duplicitous, gentle on the surface, but actually a vicious woman?
****
When the sky was completely dark, Duan's father was struggling with how to tell his son what true colors Miao and Duan Qingsong had revealed while he was away.
At the other ministers' houses, the rebel soldiers surrounding them also received accurate news that the emperor was dead and the rebellion was successful.
Their faces all showed joy, and the leaders knocked on the door of the surrounding adults.
He Lisheng's house was surrounded. When he learned that there were many rebel soldiers outside, everyone in the house panicked, but he did not panic at all.
This was something they had already discussed.
During a rebellion, one would first have one's own people surround the palace of the ministers in the court. First, it is to prevent the rebellion from succeeding, but all the ministers in the court would have fled. How would one be able to govern the country if there were no ministers?
The second is that most of the men who played well with Duan Qingen participated in this rebellion. They were all carefully selected by Duan Qingen, and most of them were children of ministers. They surrounded their houses to avoid the dangers in the house. Relatives didn't know the situation, so they packed up and ran for their lives.
It's so chaotic outside. These ministers and their relatives are all pampered. What if something happens if they run out?
And, this is also for insurance, assuming that the rebellion fails. Although according to various speculations, the probability of failure in the current situation is only one percent, but what if it fails.
If it fails, their family will be surrounded by the rebel soldiers, and they will be victims, and they will not implicate their family.
In short, this method was passed unanimously as soon as it came out.
He Lisheng did not sleep all night, and so did everyone in the mansion. His grandfather, the Duke who had retired long ago, had a chair moved to the yard and sat on it. A group of guards around him held long guns and stared at the gate.
Anyway, he couldn't run away. If the people outside really rushed in, he would take these guards to kill them together.
And He Lisheng was arranged to hide in the house with his mother, grandmother and several younger generations. There were loyal servants around to protect them. Once there was chaos outside, these servants would risk their lives to protect them and escape.
The atmosphere was very solemn, and He's mother even sobbed softly.
He Lisheng hurriedly comforted her, "Don't cry, mother. The rebels outside have surrounded our house for so long without making any moves. They have come out of the mountains of swords and seas of fire, and they are armed. Our house is definitely unable to resist them, but they have not broken in, which shows that they have no intention of doing anything to us, but just want to trap our family."
Mrs. He looked at her grandson with appreciation, "Brother Sheng is sensible and calm in the face of danger. You are right. If the rebels really come in, what are we guarding the house? Since they don't break in, they don't want to kill us."
Although her son and mother-in-law said so, Mother He still couldn't help sobbing, "But why are they surrounding our house? My father has retired, and the master is just a civil servant. They have no reason to trap our family like this..."
He Lisheng, who proposed the method of [I trap myself], touched his nose with guilt.
Old lady He knocked her cane on the ground, "Then your crying will be of use? You might as well sleep for a while."
He Lisheng felt guilty and coughed dryly, "I'll go out and see what's going on."
As he said that, he didn't wait for his mother to stop him from going, and pushed open the door to look at the bright sky outside.
It's been a night of fighting, it should be okay, right?
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard the sound of fireworks.
He Lisheng was immediately shocked and raised his head. Sure enough, two fireworks flashed over the sky of Shengjing, and beautiful fireworks bloomed.
With fireworks as a sign, it worked!
Even if he was born with a little bit of a brain, knowing that his friend had done something big at this moment, He Lisheng couldn't help but grin and walked hurriedly to the yard.
When He's mother saw her son going to such a dangerous place as the yard, she immediately became anxious, "Brother Sheng... come back quickly, is that a place you can go!"
"Mother, I will explain it to you later."
He Lisheng walked faster and faster, and finally he almost trotted to the yard. Sure enough, when he arrived, everyone in the yard was staring at the door with their nerves tense.
There was a knock on the door, two long and one short. No one opened the door and they were not in a hurry. They continued to knock slowly, two long and one short.
The guard next to He Guogong was carefully asking him, "Old man, should we open the door?"
He Guogong had some knowledge. He had just seen the fireworks and had vaguely guessed that this was the way the rebels used to convey signals. Now he saw the rebels outside knocking on the door in a very obvious code, and he immediately made a judgment in his heart.
"I'm afraid someone in our house has already joined the rebels."
They came to knock on the door because they saw that the matter was done.
But who was it?
The one who could make the rebels treat him so carefully must not be a servant or something, then, it can only be the master of the house.
Duke He's eagle eyes swept over his sons.
"What does this code mean?"
Old man of the He family: ? ? ?
"Grandfather!!!"
He Lisheng came trotting over at this moment. He was really tired from running from the backyard to here in one breath. He finally ran to Duke He, panting from exhaustion.
"Open, open the door..."
"My people are outside."
Duke He: "..."
Old man of the He family: "..."
Mother He, who was worried that her son would follow her, and old lady He, who was worried that something might happen to her daughter-in-law, said: "..."
The door of the He family was finally opened.
Until the soldiers outside, who were wearing rebel clothes and saluted He Lisheng, said: "The emperor is dead, and the situation on all sides has been handled properly. We have to go back and obey orders."
The He family did not react.
Even Duke He was shocked by his grandson.
He guessed that someone in his family had joined the rebels, but he never thought that it would be his grandson who always knew how to play and was particularly rebellious.
"Wait a minute, I'll come after I comfort my family."
He Lisheng took the armor he handed over, pointed two soldiers to put on the armor for him, and turned to his family and said: "Grandfather and grandmother, father and mother, now that the situation has just been settled, I can't say much, so let's make it short. Our family is definitely fine. Now that the imperial city has been taken down, Shengjing has been controlled by us, there is no danger, you just stay in the mansion, I'm going to go out to work, and we'll talk about it in detail when I come back."
After that, he put on his clothes, rode on a horse led by a soldier, and followed the rebels in front of the shocked eyes of his family.
There was a long silence in the He family courtyard.
In the end, it was He Lisheng's father who reacted first, "He, this, is Brother Sheng plotting treason?!"
"What nonsense!"
Duke He scolded his son, "Brother Sheng followed the new emperor in the uprising."
"Uprising... Father, but we are the Duke's Mansion..."
"With Brother Sheng here, what are you afraid of?"
Compared with his sons who were worried that the new emperor would implicate their own mansion, Duke He was relieved.
Since the new emperor has already succeeded, Brother Sheng is the merit of following the dragon, and their mansion is saved.
As for the old master before, he had long been disappointed with the emperor anyway. Even if there was no rebellion, sooner or later, the country would be taken down.
With such an emperor, it would be strange if the throne could be firmly held.
Knowing that with his grandson here, the He family would definitely not be in any danger even if they did not get any great glory, Duke He stood up directly.
"Okay, we've been busy all night, it's time to take a break. Keep the door closed first, and open it only when Brother Sheng comes."
Like the He family, it's not uncommon for the rebels to find out that their own children have been involved in the rebellion after the rebellion is successful, but no one blames these young men.
Now that the rebellion has succeeded, what else do they have to say?
Are they going to defend the country to the death and prevent it from falling into the hands of outsiders?
Such officials who are truly dedicated to the country and the emperor are either banished from Shengjing or die under the emperor's will. Those who can still serve as officials in the court now have no real feelings for him.
If he dies, these old officials will not only start to mourn, but will only start to think about what they can do to save their families, or after saving their lives, they will start to worry whether the new emperor will continue to let those who have been loyal to the previous emperor serve as officials.
This rebellion was quick and it was settled overnight.
When everything was settled and the new emperor entered the palace, the dignitaries of Shengjing knew that he was actually the eldest son of the Duan family.
A 17-year-old man who had never shown any specialness or intelligence except eating, drinking and having fun planned such a rebellion.
No one dared to say how a young boy could be an emperor. The biggest difference between Duan Qingen and the new emperor at present is that the new emperor relies on the throne passed down from generation to generation to control the world, while Duan Qingen relies on the military power in his hands that is enough to make people tremble.
The real loyal and righteous people had long died under the knife of the previous emperor.
The new emperor ascended the throne. Let alone he was only 17 years old, even if he was 10 years old this year, as long as he had real power in his hands, no one in the whole Shengjing dared to say anything.
So under the attention of the public, Duan Qingen sat on the throne.
He was the new emperor, and everything he did, including the chopsticks falling on the ground while eating, would make everyone pay attention.
Therefore, after he ascended the throne, he only conferred the title of the emperor on his father and the queen on his wife, but he had no intention of conferring the title on Miao Duan Qingsong. This made many people unable to help but inquire.
Some people said that they heard that Miao was the new emperor's stepmother, and Duan Qingsong was also Miao's child. Did the new emperor have a bad relationship with his stepmother and brother, so he did not confer the title.
Someone immediately refuted that how could the relationship be bad? Before, the new emperor and Miao were famous for their good relationship. The new emperor had distributed porridge several times before, just to pray for Miao.
This is strange. The relationship is good, but no reward, this can arouse people's curiosity too much.
After inquiring around, they finally found out.
It turned out that on the day of the rebellion, the new emperor went out to fight, and the mansion was surrounded by rebels. Miao didn't know that this was the new emperor's people, and thought it was dangerous, so at the suggestion of her son, she decided to push the emperor out to die.
All of them were taken away by his wife to die, it was strange that the emperor could have any feelings for her. After the new emperor ascended the throne, he wanted to reward Miao and Duan Qingsong, but was stopped by the emperor, who said that they were a group of ungrateful people, and being nice to them would only bring disaster.
The new emperor was kind and didn't want to kill his stepmother and brother, so he only deprived Miao of the imperial edict of the previous dynasty, demoted her and Duan Qingsong to civilians, and crossed out their names in the ancestral temple, which was considered to be expelling the two from the Duan family.
The Shengjing dignitaries who had eaten a big bite of melon said that they were very excited.
Regarding the day of the rebellion, the rebels surrounded the mansion. The fact that there were children in the family who participated was explained clearly afterwards. They just surrounded it and did nothing else. If the rebellion succeeded, they would naturally leave. If it failed, they would also leave, so as to ensure that their families would not be implicated.
At that time, the capital was in chaos, and many ladies and brothers and sisters were scared and cried, but no one was as reckless as Miao, who actually planned to take advantage of the chaos to kill her husband Duanfu, and then she and her son would enjoy the power and nobility of the Duan Mansion alone.
She must be stupid, right? ? ?
She didn't think about who got all the money in the mansion. If it wasn't for Duanfu, how could she, the daughter of a small official, have such a life today?
She usually relied on Duanfu to enjoy a lot of wealth, but when there was a crisis, she wanted to push someone to death, but that was her husband!
And Duan Qingsong, who had read so much that he was a dog, actually wanted to kill his own father. This was because the new emperor was kind and cared about the past feelings. If it were them, it would be strange if they didn't torture the mother and son.
Miao and Duan Qingen were driven out of Duanfu. They had no money on them, and they had no money to buy food when they were hungry. The two were used to being pampered, so how could they bear this hardship? Miao soon couldn't stand it, and took her son to Miao Mansion to try to seek help.
After the door of Miao Mansion was knocked open, the concierge who opened the door immediately closed the door when he saw it was her. Mrs. Miao quickly stopped her with quick eyes and hands. She brushed the hair on her face to both sides with her other hand and said in a hoarse voice: "It's me. , I’m a big girl!”
"Eldest girl, I am not making things difficult for you. My husband and wife have already said that if you see the eldest girl coming back, you will be kicked out directly."
Miao was stunned, "No, it's impossible. My father and mother love me the most! How could they drive me out!"
The concierge glanced at her with some disgust, "Master said, the eldest lady offended Xin Jun. It was Xin Jun's kindness that prevented our family from being implicated. If we come into contact with you again, Xin Jun will be angry and punish us directly. What should I do at home?”
Miao still didn't believe it, "It's impossible, my father and mother love me the most!"
Seeing that the concierge still refused to let her go, she gritted her teeth, opened the door and shouted inside:
"Father!!! Mother!!!"
"It's me!! I'm the eldest sister, mother!!!"
"You beast, what are you doing here!"
A middle-aged man walked out of the house, looking at Mrs. Miao with disgust in his eyes, "Don't you think your family has been harmed enough?!"
Miao was stunned for a moment, then shook her head quickly, "Father, I don't. Don't you know how I feel about my family? Since I married into the Duan family, I have provided a lot for the family overtly and covertly. If it weren't for me, how could our family be there? Such wealth today.”
"Father, now that I am in trouble, you should rescue me, Father!"
Father Miao was not moved at all by his daughter's cry, and the disgust on his face became heavier, "Bah!! You actually have the nerve to let me rescue you. Because of your matter, now the whole Shengjing is laughing at our family, and Your sisters, once the news spread that you were going to kill your husband in this critical moment, how could they get married in the future? It's all your fault, you still have the nerve to come here!"
Ms. Miao was crying so hard that she couldn't stand, "I didn't do it for my family. Who knew that Duan Qingen rebelled and didn't even tell my family? I did this to save Brother Song, father!!"
"No matter what you do! You can't kill your husband!! And the little beast next to you, you kill your husband, he kills his father, you are all the same. If I take you in, if there is danger one day, will you want to do it too? Join this little beast to kill me!"
"I can't do it, I can't do it, father, please, Brother Song and I are really hungry. Please give me some money, no, no! You can give me some food!!"
Father Miao strode forward and kicked his daughter's hand away.
"I won't give you anything, get out!!"
"If you want to pretend to be virtuous, you should pretend to be virtuous all your life, or you won't pretend at all. It's fine now. You have pushed away the wealth and honor you obtained. But I heard that His Majesty plans to make you the Queen Mother, and there is this scoundrel next to you. If you hadn't wanted to kill the Supreme Emperor, as His Majesty's younger brother, how could he have become a prince, and our family would have been considered an uncle by then. Now we are fine, we are not rich, and our whole family has been ridiculed, you You have the nerve to show up, you...I'll beat you to death!"
The more he talked, the angrier he became. He simply picked up a stick from the ground and hit him. The stick hit Miao mercilessly.
Ms. Miao rolled on the ground in pain and screamed, while screaming, she called her son, "Brother Song, save me, save mother, Brother Song!!"
Duan Qingsong stood aside blankly, not knowing what he was thinking, and had no intention of coming to help his biological mother from being beaten.
Finally, Miao's father had enough beatings, so he threw the stick away and turned around angrily.
"Close the door! If they come again in the future, beat them directly!!"
The door of Miao Mansion slowly closed. Miao, who was lying on the ground dying after being beaten, saw her and quickly struggled to get up and crawled over, "Father!! Father doesn't want it!! Father -"
No matter how hard she begged, the door was still closed.
Knowing that her parents would no longer help her, Miao slumped down in front of the door and cried bitterly, "I have helped you a lot before! I have given you a lot of gold and silver alone. You can't do this to me. How could you?" Do this to me—"
While she was crying, Duan Qingsong behind her suddenly said, "Grandpa is right."
Miao was stunned and turned to look at her son: "What?"
"I said grandpa was right, it's all your fault!!"
Duan Qingsong has been in such a miserable state these past few days. He doesn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. If he meets someone he knows on the street, he will be ridiculed. Even if he has a good relationship with him before, he will never think of helping him. Instead, he stayed away, fearing that others would find out that he had a good relationship with Duan Qingsong before.
These past few days have completely driven him to pieces.
He regretted every moment, regretted why he made the decision to kill Duan's father, regretted why he didn't say such words later, and then regretted not having a good relationship with Duan Qingen before.
Regret gnawed at his heart like a worm, making him suffer all the time.
But now, hearing Miao's father accusing Miao, he suddenly realized.
Duan Qingsong pointed at Mr. Miao, his bloodshot eyes full of hatred, and his voice was extremely sharp: "It's all your fault!!! It's all your fault!!!"
"If you hadn't told me that the Duan family belongs to me since I was a child, Duan Qing'en would be kicked out sooner or later. How could I go against my eldest brother!! He likes me so much. He has been trying to coax me since I was a child. Every time He would bring me something every time we go out. If you hadn’t instigated it, we must have a very good relationship, and he would never forget my younger brother when he became emperor!”
The tears on Miao's face fell freely, "Brother Song, how can you blame me? How can you blame mother? I am doing it for you. I am doing it so that you can inherit the Duan family and live a good life. , I wholeheartedly do it for you..."
“Then am I living a good life now?!!”
Duan Qingsong interrupted her sharply, with hatred on his face: "If it weren't for you, how could my eldest brother drive me away, and my father wouldn't abandon me. I'm different from you. I'm from the Duan family. My surname is Duan, my eldest brother loves me so much, and my father also likes me. If it weren’t for you, they would definitely take me to the palace and give me the throne and the land!”
Ms. Miao was heartbroken by her son's accusation. She covered her heart and cried sadly, "Brother Song, please wake up. It was you who said you wanted to kill your father first."
"That's also because you've been instigating!"
He said with certainty, "If you hadn't always told me that my father favored my eldest brother and said that my eldest brother didn't deserve the family property, how could I have done this? It was you who caused me to lose my position as the prince. You didn't do that at all." You deserve to be my mother, you say you are doing it for my own good, but you have never done anything good to me!”
"When the eldest brother didn't rebel, you were so good to him, but so bad to me. When the eldest brother rebelled, you made my father turn against me. Why did you give birth to me? Did you give birth to me just to harm me?"
After Duan Qingsong finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Miao's whole body ached, and she crawled towards him crying, "Brother Song, Brother Song, where are you going? Don't leave me..."
"Don't follow me!!"
Duan Qingsong turned around and pointed at his mother and yelled, "You haven't hurt me enough! I don't want to see you again in the future!!"
After leaving these words, Duan Qingsong disappeared in Shengjing.
It had to be said that Ms. Miao still loved her son very much. Even though he said so many hurtful words and clearly hated her mother, she still did not give up and went to find him.
She searched all over Shengjing. When she was thirsty, she ate from the snow on the ground. When she was hungry, she begged along the streets. Within three days, she was no different from the beggars in Shengjing.
After searching all over Shengjing but unable to find Duan Qingsong, Miao finally thought that he might have left Shengjing, so she dragged her frostbitten legs out of Shengjing and searched all the way.
Duan Qingen in the palace also received the news that the mother and son had left Shengjing. He didn't take it to heart and only said to his subordinates who were ordered to monitor them: "Continue to watch them."
He had no time to care about the mother and son because he had more important things to do.
The country had been tortured by the dead previous emperor for a long time. It suffered from external and internal troubles, the people's life was difficult, and the treasury was empty.
This is the country Duan Qingen conquered.
He didn't feel bad at all. The treasury had no money, but he had money.
The reputation of being able to make money lasted more than a day or two.
After ascending to the throne, in addition to naming his father as the Supreme Emperor and Xi Yuzhen as the Queen, Duan Qingen's first decree was to reduce taxes.
No matter what, his decree made many people in Shengjing breathe a sigh of relief.
The new king also knows how to think about the people. Even if he is a faint king, he will not faint. He is better than the previous one.
After that, Duan Qingen devoted himself to vigorous national construction.
As his queen, Xi Yuzhen is responsible for helping him manage the internal affairs. There is no harem. Duan Qingen's external statement is that he is too busy to draft. Besides, the queen has good looks and good character, so there is no need to fill the harem.
Duan Qing'en is now focused on building the country. Xi Yuzhen can't control the harem, so he has to help him take care of those businesses. The first is the Royal Post Office, which is run in the name of the royal family. It basically builds a post station two kilometers away. The staff in the post station are all from the war. Because they were veterans who were disabled and retired from the army, they charged cheaply, delivered letters quickly, and had the royal family as their backers, so business quickly started.
At first, some people did not accept this mode of sending letters, but when they discovered that people around them not only sent letters but also received replies using such a cheap and fast method, they began to write letters and spend a small amount of money to send them.
The post station not only delivers letters, but also escorts things. However, if you are sending things, it will be more expensive to charge. Generally, the price is calculated based on the weight, size and distance of the things. Some people will choose to escort things.
It was not a lot of money at the beginning, but within three months, the Royal Mail Bureau was able to create a steady stream of revenue for the national treasury.
What is most praised by the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Military Commission, especially the military generals, is that the people employed by the Royal Post Office are all disabled veterans. It can be regarded as a kind of alternative pension. It can not only make some soldiers and generals feel grateful to the country, but also avoid the hassle of recruiting people. Worry about whether something will happen.
After all, they are all disabled veterans. If the country had not given them this job, they would never have been able to find a job in their current situation. Jobs are hard-earned, so they should cherish them.
After the first pot of gold earned by the Royal Post Office arrived, Xi Yuzhen began to build the first department store according to Duan Qingen's wishes.
With Royal Mail, this is not difficult.
Next, there are various perfumes, makeup, and clothes.
The entire Shengjing knew that the Queen was now in charge of the entire country's economy. Even if the Xi family did not receive a reward, but was left to hang out, no one doubted the Queen's status in His Majesty's heart.
If he didn't have 100% trust, would His Majesty hand over the country's economic lifeline to the Queen?
Of course, there was another reason why they thought so. Although His Majesty did not reward the Queen's father and aunt, he rewarded the Queen's brother with a title, and approved the Queen's brother's request to separate the family with his aunt.
This is simply telling the whole Shengjing that His Majesty only recognizes the Queen's biological mother and younger brother. As for the Marquis and Mrs. Hou in the Marquis' Mansion, he does not recognize them.
Oh, no, they are no longer the Marquis and the Marquis. After all, this Marquis' Mansion was also granted by the previous dynasty, so of course the new monarch would not recognize it.
As for why the new king recognized He Guogong as the Duke of the country and also recognized the positions of many ministers, then he didn't care about them.
Anyway, everyone knows clearly that the Xi family is rejected.
No one would provoke the new king who has gained military power at this time. He has just ascended the throne and it is the time when he needs to establish his authority. If someone jumps out at this time, it will be like a big rooster who comes to kill the chicken to show the monkey.
Therefore, when the news came out that Xi Yuzhen's aunt was accused by her father of treating the concubine harshly and wanted to divorce her wife, all the dignitaries kept their attitude.
Make a fuss.
Anyway, judging from the attitude of His Majesty and the Queen, even if the Xi family is in trouble, they will not return the Xi family's title.
Later, I heard that a fire suddenly broke out in Xi's house and burned Father Xi to death. An aunt reported the fire, saying that the fire was set by the mistress. When the government checked, it turned out that it was really her, but by that time she was already crazy and kept talking about it. She shouldn't have married the Queen to His Majesty in the first place.
She was the queen's legitimate mother, and she was crazy. The government didn't know how to deal with it, so they could only report it. Duan Qingen read it and handed it over directly to Xi Yuzhen.
Xi Yuzhen did not hesitate much and decreed that official matters should be handled as business as usual.
Business was business, and a woman who burned her husband to death should be put to death. However, the government should not really execute the queen's aunt, so in the end they simply dealt with it the way they would deal with a madman and locked her in prison.
They can't die, and they can't escape. If one day the queen remembers and asks them for someone, she won't be unable to hand him over.
As for the special treatment, forget it. What if the Queen still holds a grudge against her? I heard that the Queen was often abused by her aunt before she left the cabinet. Even His Majesty knew about it.
They don't know that His Majesty is careless and careless, but since the Supreme Emperor can hold a grudge so much, I'm afraid His Majesty is not far behind. It's better to lock up this crazy woman and not treat her well, nor specifically target her.
Xi Yuzhen didn't take her aunt's affairs to heart. Like Duan Qing'en, she was too busy now, but she was very happy in her heart.
She was very happy to be able to contribute to her husband and this country.
The emperor and empress were united and worked together for three years.
In the third year, the treasury finally no longer needed them to make money and provide subsidies. The country was in good weather and the people had enough to eat and drink. Shengjing returned to its former bustling scene.
When the taxes for that year were paid, Duan Qingen took Xi Yuzhen to the observatory, stood with her under the stars, and gently touched her slightly bulging belly.
"When the prince is born, you and I can have some leisure time."
"This world is considered stable."
Xi Yuzhen smiled and leaned on his shoulder relying on him. The two of them looked at the stars in the sky, feeling calm in their hearts.
In the third year of Tianyuan, the queen gave birth to her legitimate son, who was named the crown prince when he was still in his infancy. His Majesty publicly stated in the court that he would only have the queen in his life.
In the fifth year of Tianyuan, the small neighboring countries felt grateful for their country's kindness and took the initiative to join the country.
In the seventh year of Tianyuan, there were academies all over the country. They did not restrict themselves to cultivating and took care of their own food. His Majesty ordered that all men and women, aged seven and under thirty, could enroll in the academy.
In the tenth year of Tianyuan, the seven-year-old prince was carried to the throne by his majesty and went to court together.
In the fifteenth year of Tianyuan, His Majesty ordered the construction of sea ships and encouraged people to go to sea. Suddenly, there were many people who went to sea to seek gold.
In the twentieth year of Tianyuan, at least half of the people in the country were literate.
In the twenty-third year of Tianyuan, His Majesty passed the throne to the Crown Prince.
In the forty-third year of Baoyuan's reign, the Emperor and the Queen Mother passed away in their sleep, and the whole country mourned.
【bite! The mission is completed, please choose: 1. Continue the mission, 2. Take a vacation. 】
Duan Qingen looked at the emperor's grandson who was kneeling in front of his bed and crying, "Continue the mission."
****
"The country is at a critical stage! We were born and raised here. How can we be human beings if we just watch it being destroyed without doing anything about it!!"
Duan Qingen heard these words as soon as he opened his eyes. While receiving the memories in his mind, he determined the timeline.
Well, the Republic of China.
The author has something to say: Ding ding ding, it’s time to end this world.
I originally planned to write about this world as a small theater, but I forgot about the previous chapter. I will write about it in this chapter.
Engel: If my mother is happy, I will rebel hahaha
Miao: Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, shall I knock you, knock you, knock you?——
The Republic of China in the next world will still be empty
Good night little angels, red envelopes will randomly drop, okay?
