Emperor Chongzhen's only time in history left the Forbidden City was to hang himself on Coal Mountain.

At this time, he not only went to Tianjin, but also wanted to hunt.

In the middle of winter, animals will hibernate when they should. Hunting, excuses, are all excuses.

Since the four palace maids came to the mansion, Liu Mingyu discovered that his life had completely changed.

In the early morning, Liu Mingyu was awakened by the fragrance, as if there were chicken soup, scallops, ginseng, and some spices mixed, which disturbed him from being unable to immerse himself in his sleep. In addition, the feeling of holding his urine made him wake up a lot.

I slowly opened my eyes and happened to see a palace maid carrying a bowl of soup, stirring and blowing, slowly walking towards me. When I saw Liu Mingyu open his eyes, the dimples on the lips of the palace maid flashed. This was the palace maid who was the best at cooking among the four palace maids, and his name was Hongyi.

She didn't say what her surname was, and Liu Mingyu didn't ask.

Hongyi asked, "I pay homage to the prince!"

"No gift!"

Liu Mingyu sat up, and he instantly grabbed the quilt that was about to slide down, looking at the stirring soup, out of conditioned reflex, the only little sleepiness left was completely washed away by the full urge to pee.

Before Liu Mingyu could get dressed, he was about to let the red clothes turn over. However, the soup had already been delivered to his mouth. Liu Mingyu forced himself to take a sip, but his legs were tighter.

"That, I want to wash up first."

"Drink the soup first!"

Liu Mingyu's legs were tighter, and he pursed his lips and saw sweat on his forehead: "I'll go to the bathroom!"

At this time, the palace maid named Luyi walked over with a toilet, and Liu Mingyu was about to go crazy.

"Start up!"

These four palace maids were all able to leave the hall and enter the kitchen. The key was that they were so enthusiastic that they made Liu Mingyu feel speechless.

At this time, Liu Mingyu really lived a disabled life. When he had food and clothes, he could not help but do his best to meet Liu Ming in the bathroom and take a shower.

After Liu Mingyu finished washing up, before he had time to start exercising, Green and Red Qi placed the rich breakfast on the table. In the past, Liu Mingyu's breakfast was simple in principle.

Basically, I prepared a few side dishes, buns, or fried dough sticks, occasionally steamed buns, millet porridge, or egg soup, but now, there are thirty or forty dishes on the huge dining table.

The fish meat removed from the fish bones and the shrimp skin peeled off were like carefully crafted dishes. What made Liu Mingyu feel the biggest feeling was that he was not used to it.

Because he had to see Chongzhen for a limited time, Liu Mingyu couldn't bear it anymore. He looked at the red clothes, green clothes, small millet, and black beans with a serious look on his face.

What made Liu Mingyu speechless was that a palace maid who was obviously very cute was actually named Heidou.

"Today, I will announce something!"

"Please tell me!"

"stand up!"

Liu Mingyu looked at the four palace maids and said seriously: "If there were no accidents, we would live together and live together in the future. However, you made me very embarrassed. I am not disabled, I am not old enough to walk, nor are I lazy people who don't even want to move. Do you understand?"

The four palace maids looked at each other, their heads lowered.

"This is the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion, but please remember that this is not the palace, so don't bring the set in the palace here!"

Liu Mingyu's tone was very harsh, which made the four palace maids panic.

After having a simple breakfast, Liu Mingyu brought several personal guards to Wansui Mountain according to the Jinyiwei's guidance.

Sure enough, as Liu Mingyu expected, when the emperor of the Jinyiwei personally guarded Chongzhen to arrive at Wansui Mountain, Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, built a large-scale city, palace and garden in Beijing. According to the saying "Canglong, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Xuanwu, and the four spirits of the sky, to set the four directions", the north of the Forbidden City is the position of Xuanwu, and there should be mountains. Therefore, the Forbidden City Twin River and Taiye Pond were excavated, and the soil in the South China Sea accumulated on the "green mountains" to form five peaks, called "Wansui Mountain", and firmly suppressed the foundation of Yanchun Pavilion at the foot of the mountain.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the imperial court piled up coal in Jingshan to prevent the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty from sieging Beijing to cause fuel shortages. Therefore, the mountain is also called "Coal Mountain". Fruit trees were planted at the foot of Wansui Mountain in the Ming Dynasty, commonly known as "Baiguoyuan" or "Northern Orchard". The Shouhuang Hall and other halls were built in the northeast corner of Wansui Mountain for the emperor to climb high, enjoy flowers, drink banquets, and shoot archery. The Guande Hall in the northeast of the garden was originally a place where the emperors of the Ming Dynasty watched their ministers shoot archery. Crowns and deer were raised at the foot of the mountain to represent longevity.

Rather than hunting, it was the guards who placed the captive deer, baby animals and other small animals in an open space with a grid, and let Emperor Chongzhen shoot with a bow and arrow.

"Swish swish swish swish..."

Emperor Chongzhen shot seven arrows in a row, but Mao failed to hit him.

When it comes to how good the kung fu is, Liu Mingyu's skills are really average. When it comes to shooting archery, Liu Mingyu is just barely able to do it, but if he shoots a crossbow, then Liu Mingyu is definitely one of the best masters in a million.

However, Liu Mingyu did not over-stimulate Emperor Chongzhen, and he did not show any performance.

Of course, Chongzhen appreciated the face Liu Mingyu gave him. After a long time, Chongzhen sighed and said, "Liu Qing, you are close to thirty years old, but you have nothing to do. There are three unfilial things. If you have no descendants, you are the best. I want to give you a marriage..."

Liu Mingyu really has no son, because since he was reborn, he has been together with Yang Xianxian and his wife for a long time. If he really had a son, for Liu Mingyu, this was not a surprise, but a shock.

Before Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, Liu Mingyu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have a wife..."

"Yang, after eight years of marriage, he only had one daughter, no children, and was forbidden to seven outbreaks!"

"Your Majesty, let's discuss. I will work hard. Next autumn harvest, Liaoning will pay another two million stones of grain. Can I not give my marriage to the ministers!"

"no!"

"Two million stones of grain, plus 30,000 pieces of cloth!"

"no!"

"Why?"

"Because the state and the government do not allow it"!

Chongzhen looked at Liu Mingyu and said seriously: "At that time, Taizu wanted to conquer the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and wanted to conquer Xu Da, Duke of Wei, but he was worried that the 250,000 elite troops would not be controlled, so he asked Hu Weiyong for advice. Hu Weiyong replied: Marriage. Taizu married the fourth son, King Yan, and married Xu Da's daughter, and the army was completed."

Liu Mingyu smiled: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, marriage has never been reliable. The Han Dynasty married the Huns, and the Huns attacked the border as usual. Emperor Taizong of Tang married the Tubo and married Princess Wencheng. However, the Tubo attack on the Tang Dynasty has stopped. How can a woman be in charge of the country's major affairs?"

"You are honest!"

Chongzhen sighed long and said, "I can agree to you about other things, but there is no room for negotiation for this matter."

Liu Mingyu directly played tricks with Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, do you choose another talent for Liaoning's errand?"

Chongzhen was also angry: "Bastard, if there are still virtuous people, I still need you!"

This is the truth. Although Jiannu was beaten into a dog by Liu Mingyu, the Guan Ning army wanted to take advantage of Liu Mingyu's remnant power. The key is that they did not gain any advantage. Although Jiannu is only half his life left, he is still stronger than when Nurhaci raised his army.

"Your Majesty, what should I do with my wife Yang? Could it be that I let me poison Yang?"

Liu Mingyu thought to himself that as long as Emperor Chongzhen dared to issue such an order, Liu Mingyu would decide to part ways and love whoever he wanted.

Emperor Chongzhen said: "I can pardon you for marrying two wives, just like Jia Chong in the Jin Dynasty!"

Jia Chong was one of the founding fathers of the Western Jin Dynasty, Duke of Lu County and Grand Governor. Jia Chong first married Li Wan, but later divorced due to an accident in the Li family. Li Wan was sentenced to exile and married Guo Huai again. Later, Li Wan was pardoned, and the emperor allowed him to marry two righteous wives, called "Left and Left Lady".

"Who is the left and who is the right?"

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was no such thing as a flat wife. To say a flat wife, it was actually a lie that a man fooled the outdoor room.

In ancient times, official positions of the same level were large on the left and small on the right.

For example, the left governor, the right governor, the left governor, the right governor, the right governor, the right governor. "Left" refers to the side facing the south east, opposite to "right". In terms of position, since the east is in front and the west is in the back, there has always been a saying that the left is supreme and the right is second.

In fact, in our country, from ancient times to the present, "respecting the left" or "respecting the right" has not been static. There are differences between age and region, and there are still controversies today. But it is undeniable that from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and from the Song Dynasty, my country gradually formed a system of left-right-right-lowering system.

In ancient times, the hierarchy was strict, and the left and right were one of the signs that distinguished the high and low levels, and was generally implemented in various etiquettes. Because when the monarch was treated by his ministers, he sat in the south, left and right and right west, his ministers stood in the north, left and west, and the court officials were arranged in the character from high to low according to their official positions. If the high official positions were east, and the low in the west, the low in the west, he would respect the right and be inferior to the left; if the contrary, he would respect the left and be inferior to the right.

In the early Warring States Period, Lin Xiangru of Zhao was appointed as the Shangqing and was at the right of Lian Po, which aroused dissatisfaction with Lian Po. From this we can see that in the Warring States Period, "right" was the highest. In the Song Dynasty, the "two-official system" was implemented, that is, two institutions, namely, the Central Secretariat and the Privy Council, held two civil and military positions, and were named two palaces. The left-official was the highest.

Looking at Liu Mingyu's attitude, Chongzhen knew that if Princess Anqing was letting her be the wife of Zuo and she was above Yang Xianxian, Liu Mingyu would probably not agree.

But the problem is that Chongzhen had already investigated Liu Mingyu's situation, and Yang Xianxian had no contact with Yang. It can be said that she was a person without the support of her mother's family. Even if Princess Anqing has a slightly lower status, Yang Xianxian could not beat Princess Anqing.

Emperor Chongzhen pondered: "The Yang family first entered the Liu family's gate, on the left, Anqing's back, on the right. I will issue an order soon, and grant the right permission to set up a wife from the right of the Yingguo!" Liu Mingyu saw that he could not escape this matter, so he looked at Chongzhen and said: "If this is the case, it's okay to get married. Your Majesty must agree to me for several conditions!"

Men are different from women. Marriage is a lifetime for women, especially those of the Ming Dynasty. But for Liu Mingyu, at worst, he would not have to spend a few bites of food when he was placed in the capital.

Not to mention Zhu, even a sow, Liu Mingyu recognized it.

Liaoning is his home, so let Chongzhen take it as a hostage.

"First, I am managing Liaodong and cannot blindly conquer Jiannu. Now Jiannu's vitality is severely damaged. If they avoid fighting, it is not easy for me to destroy them. From ancient times to the present, it is easy to defeat the Hu tribes outside the Great Wall, but it is too difficult to destroy them. I want to use both suppression and appeasement, and I hope the court will not interfere with them!"

Chongzhen thought about it and felt that what Liu Mingyu said was a fact. The army went to fight and spent too much food and grass. This time it was Jiannu's attack. Liu Mingyu fought a defense and counterattack, achieving good results. If the army went on fight, it would be likely to return in vain and waste the people and money.

He nodded and said, "Yes. The dear minister is determined by his decisive decision. I just want to ask, but Huang Taiji must die and will not be pardoned!"

"Yes, no need to remind you, I will not spare him!"

Liu Mingyu continued: "The Jiannu slaughtered Liaodong, and the old slave uprooted the officials and gentry of Liaodong, and suffered heavy losses. If you want Liaodong to restore vitality in the shortest time, you must use some extraordinary means and extraordinary talents. Officials above the county magistrate of Liaodong must be recommended by their ministers. The court should not send people to Liaodong within three years!"

Chongzhen's face changed drastically: "Do you want to separatist Liaoning and become king?"

Liu Mingyu smiled bitterly and said, "I don't want to divide the country. I only know that some guys are not good at doing things, but they are first-class in causing trouble. I don't want the situation that finally stabilized will make a mess of several bed bugs."

Emperor Chongzhen frowned. Although Liu Mingyu swears that he does not want to be separatist, he naturally cannot believe it.

Seeing Chongzhen silent, Liu Mingyu knew that he must have concerns.
