Chapter 93 The Queen's Harem

The royal family of the Daxia Dynasty had secret guards and spies. For example, the master who always protected Rong Shu's safety in the palace was affiliated with a royal institution called Que Wei, which was mainly responsible for the safety of the royal family.

After the new policy was stable, Rong Shu established a new institution, the Supervision Department, which divided the twenty-four territories into the territory, and supervised all officials in the world. Officials from all over the country can also pass the Supervision Department and directly handed over to the emperor.

The inspection department is positioned as half-light and half-dark, not participating in political affairs, and directly obeying the emperor.

Rong Shu established it just to gather some local powers and prevent local officials from doing evil by relying on the high and high news of the emperor far away. At the same time, to prevent it from losing its head, at present, there is only the power to supervise and directly report the emperor to grasp the standards.

The country and the people of Daxia are peaceful, but there are many disadvantages. Compared with ambitious expansion of territory and strengthening reputation, Rong Shu considers more to alleviate existing contradictions. The first is to practice the Daxia method.

Some of these disadvantages do need to be improved.

For example, if a slave is divided into good fortune and bad fortune, if the master is killed, he will be punished with ten sticks and fined ten gold. If the master is beaten and killed, he will be punished with the same crime as murder. If a woman marrys a husband, only a fifth-rank official or above can be served, and there is a fixed quota. If a civilian is below the fifth-rank or below, he can only marry one husband, and killing a husband is punished with the same crime as killing a wife.

Both men and women are determined to be eighteen years old before they can get married.

The legitimate children can be divided into 70% of their family property, 30% of their family property, etc.

Then you make a fortune, such as developer roads, develop sea areas, and unmanned islands.

For example, if you obey the small countries nearby, you will send some literati and great scholars to educate and open academy. If you are not convinced, you will find a mistake and then send someone to come over. In short, the result will be the same.

If culture and even image habits are assimilated and the writing and language are unified, then immigrating and relocating will not be difficult.

Rong Shu temporarily set up a thirty-year plan, hoping that she was still there at that time, or that her successor would not be too stupid to see the benefits.

During this period, there were several major wars, and Daxia won. Rong Shu was not as kind as the defeated country. The compensation was enriched with the national treasury, and the captured soldiers were the laborers for building water conservancy canals. They could also get a few large areas of land. With more land, they moved to immigrants and reproduced the population, and the labor force in Daxia was still less.

Rong Shu will not be too aggressive in reform. The development of the times has its own rules. Sometimes being too advanced may not be a benefit.

With the open policy implemented by Rong Shu, the phenomenon of all nations coming to the court in the seventh year of her succession was formed.

Such openness brings about the overall openness of society, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and Rong Shu has become the wise ruler in their eyes.

***

"The old minister thanks Your Majesty for your grace."

The official who had white hair and hair all year round was still grateful when he walked out of the palace.

Jiang Jinnian was a little surprised when she saw her, but he had been in the officialdom for several years and did not want to ask more questions. The old official pulled him and was so excited that he was chattering.

"Your Majesty, she still remembers the name of the old minister. She was a Jinshi in the Xinyou year of Jian'an. The old minister... The old minister has not returned to the capital for more than 20 years."

It’s no wonder that this official is so excited. She has been an official for many years. Although she has no faults, she is really not outstanding. When she is old, she returns to Beijing to report on her work and beg for old age. She doesn’t want the noble emperor to reveal her name and political achievements at a glance.

I wish I could have been born later and I would be loyal to the emperor for a few more years.

Jiang Jinnian is complicated inside. He has seen the changes in Daxia in recent years with his own eyes. Rong Shu is indeed a promising king.

He was not surprised. It would be strange if he had no ability to trick him.

However, no one has ever been in the harem in recent years. At first, Rong Shu said that he would be mourning for the last emperor for three years, and then three years later, he directly summoned several sons of the royal family to the palace to raise them last year.

Some ministers in the court asked for the opening of the harem and selected three thousand servants, but were pushed by His Majesty.

At that time, Jiang Jinnian and Wang Yizhi, who had finally stood firm in the court, had a hard time, after all, everyone knew that they were the ones who had a relationship with the Empress Rong Shu. It was not because of them that the Empress did not accept the harem, but also very suspicious.

There are even loyal ministers who think that these two men are uneasy in the room to seduce Your Majesty.

Jiang Jinnian/Wang Yizhi who was cheated again: "..."

Some even dared to ask His Majesty if he had a habit of polishing a mirror, because His Majesty did not even allow the men in the palace to serve him in close proximity. Some old ministers even shed tears in pain and begged to leave blood for the royal family.

Rong Shu stroked her forehead, resisted the idea of ​​kicking her away, and asked the guards to drag her out of the palace gate.

9526 is also very curious about why the host doesn’t open the harem.

"Isn't it just a vacation world? Why do you still have to leave an heir for them?" Rong Shu believed that it was good enough to help them train an heir to the throne.

Being an emperor is self-protection, and being able to live upright is better than being frustrated and pretending to die. With Rong Shu's personality, he will not be a foolish monarch to play with the world.

But her mission is not Daxia, so there is no need to devote herself to Daxia until her death.

After Rong Shu summoned the son of the royal family, there was no objection in the court and the public.

***

Han Cheng died in the third year of going to the border, and even his bones could not be found. When he was at the border, he was worried that Rong Shu would deliberately harm him, but in the front line of the battlefield where swords and swords are blind and life and death are impermanent, it is not easy to save his life. Whoever has the heart to murder him, it is his luck to be able to come back alive.

After receiving the news, Nan'an Hou did not even disturb His Majesty.

As early as the moment she sent Han Cheng away, she was mentally prepared. In the past three years, she had already started raising her adopted daughter from the clan and buried Han Cheng's tomb with great care. It would be better to die on the battlefield than to die on the charge of murdering His Majesty.

When they heard that Han Cheng died, Jiang Jinnian and Wang Yizhi were both silent. They were no longer the time when they were innocent and arrogant that women in the world were not as good as the three of them.

They once thought they were excellent, but they changed the moment they entered the court. Every three years, there were more ambitious talents from all over the world who joined the court with the idea of ​​learning civil and military skills and selling the imperial family.

If anyone lacks talent, the king will not.

A king is rich in all the worlds, things from all over the world, talents from all over the world, and land.

Jiang Jinnian and Wang Yizhi were just one of them, but they also struggled to stand out. Rong Shu did not deliberately humiliate them, but did not treat them well and treated them equally.

Seven years have passed, Jiang Jinnian is in the third rank, and Wang Yizhi is in the fourth rank, and both of them are in important positions.

They have surpassed many people and have obtained the power they have always dreamed of, but why don’t they feel so happy?

Because I have paid too much.

Prime Minister Jiang resigned as prime minister after Jiang Jinnian became an official in the court for one year and returned to his hometown to retire. Jiang Jinnian's two sisters in the court not only did not become his help, but instead focused on suppressing him.

Wang Yizhi was successfully used by Rong Shu and divided the aristocratic family, and he had also split from the aristocratic family. This result was something he had never imagined. He came from aristocratic family and thought and did everything he wanted. When he dated Rong Shu, he was just to get to the next level of the Wang family.

After a few years, I was centrifuged.

The Wang family could not trust him, nor could he believe whether the Wang family would give up and sacrifice him when necessary.

Being an official is not easy. The nobles of the past also had to deal with all the religions and all the people, dealing with intrigues and factional struggles in the court.

Even though he knew that many children from the aristocratic family had admired his current status, Wang Yizhi couldn't help but feel tired.

One afternoon tea and chess, Wang Yizhi said lightly, "I want to resign."

Jiang Jinnian held a white piece and paused slightly.

Over the years, even relatives and families have not been able to believe in relying on each other. Instead, they have become friends because of their situation.

"Why?" Jiang Jinnian pursed her lips and stared at Wang Yizhi tightly, as if he had betrayed their common ideal.

Wang Yizhi smiled miserably, "You know, I'm too tired." He was exhausted both day and night, "What we face is not only His Majesty, but also this world."

"I thought I could change and be the first person."

"But now I know, it's too hard to be the first person."

Even though he is old this year, no one will forget his stunningness. Over the years, he has speculated that Rong Shu used their purpose, maybe a knife or a shield, but no matter what it is, he is powerless to go on, and it is not a good feeling to betrayal by everyone as a heresy.

Jiang Jinnian didn't say anything, but pulled up his wide left arm sleeve. Since there were dozens of knife marks on his jade-like white arms.

He said calmly, "Every time I think of Rong Shu, I can't help but cut a knife."

Wang Yizhi couldn't believe it, "Do you still hate her?"

This does not mean that Wang Yizhi forgot that Rong Shu had fooled him, but he was surprised that Jiang Jinnian had such courage. He only knew that he was extremely resentful at the beginning, but gradually he did not dare to hate him and could not hate him anymore.

The success and the defeat of the enemy are right.

Jiang Jinnian shook her head, "No, I just..." He laughed at herself, "If I don't hate her, if I don't have such hatred, I don't know if I can still hold on."

The court struggles, the attacks that have never stopped, the family’s betrayal, and the future solitary movements.

Perhaps only the hatred for the Empress Rong Shu can support him to go on.

Wang Yizhi was silent.

***

Rong Shu saw the remarks presented by Wang Yi. Although she had forgotten Wang Yizhi's appearance, she sighed and thought she would be a Wu Zetian-like figure. Rong Shu was quite curious about the only person who had seen in a certain world history book who was the emperor of the ancient times, who was superior to men and women, and could not even help but experimented in this world.

Yi Rongshu's existence was destined to be impossible for them to start from the harem, but she at least gave them a platform for the court.

What a pity

Time proves that you have ambitions but don’t have the nature of being able to endure humiliation and bend and stretch.

She finally got her guess.

Wang Yizhi resigned from his post and returned home. This family was no longer the Wang family in Yongling, but the mansion he bought after becoming an official. After that, he rarely talked about the world and just wrote books and made simple statements.

Jiang Jinnian was still ups and downs in the court. After making up his mind once, the two sisters lost their posts and reduced their obstacles.

Sometimes, he didn't know what he was still pursuing, whether one day he would take revenge on the empress, or to fight for equal rights for men all over the world.

He only knew that he could only go on this path, and he could not afford to lose, and he would never retreat unless he died.

In the fifteenth year of Qi in the Qing Dynasty, historians wrote, in addition to the achievements of Emperor Qi of Qing Dynasty, Rong Shu, as well as her past as the emperor's daughter, her entanglements with Jiang Jinnian and others, her lifelong merits and demerits, and her daily life.

Rong Shu said it doesn’t matter. There is a saying that after I die, I don’t care about the flood. Although Rong Shu doesn’t agree with it, he doesn’t care about the name behind him.

If you want to do whatever you want, just do it with your heart. Why bother with the good reputation or bad reputation left after death? What people in later generations say?

Besides, for her, there was never real death.
