Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 124 4 Master's Backyard is involved in the daily life 49

No one knew that the emperor and the imperial concubine in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were "going through wind and rain", but the people outside were living a better and better life.

Yinzhen's policy of equalizing the land tax and requiring officials and gentry to perform duties and pay taxes together was implemented smoothly.

Although there are still stubborn elements, they cannot resist the general trend.

Yinzhen held military power and new weapons in his hands. Maritime trade was organized by the imperial court, and he made a lot of money in a fair and honest way. Although the tariffs were a bit high, he could earn more.

The time came to the fifth year of Yongzheng's reign.

This year, Yinzhen and Le Shu had no shortage of money, soldiers, or weapons. The economy was booming, and the people's land problems were improved. Only then did they begin to consider the issue of industrial reform.

The reason why the two did not launch industrial reforms right from the beginning was because they understood that if they rashly pushed one era into another, even if that era was the right era and the general trend, if they acted too hastily, although the result might remain the same, the process would inevitably be bloody.

This is not what they want to see.

Although Yinzhen was willing to reform, he was also afraid of causing himself to be overthrown, so he could not be too cautious.

But before that, Yinzhen planned to enthrone Le Shu as queen.

The first person to bring up this matter was the person arranged by Yinzhen.

The ministers in the court were all aware of Yinzhen's feelings. When someone mentioned it, everyone pretended to object and then agreed. It went very smoothly.

The reason why it was so smooth was not because of Le Shu's charm or virtue, but because she had a good reputation among the people and she was in control of the maritime trade.

Who objects to not taking up the shareholding for the next quarter?

No more money to be made?

Even if someone cannot see the situation clearly and wants to oppose, they must be suppressed. What if the superiors are unhappy and their shares are reduced? Where will the money come from to buy the jewelry promised to the women in the backyard?

corruption?

That was a forced choice. Now that there are better ways to make money, who would be willing to engage in corruption, get dirty, and give political opponents the opportunity to attack them?

How could someone who can stand in the Golden Throne Hall to attend court be someone who cannot see the situation clearly!

In this beautiful season of sunny spring, Le Shu welcomed a grand ceremony in her life - the ceremony of being crowned as queen.

On this day, the sky is clear blue and the breeze gently caresses your cheeks, bringing blessings.

The enthronement ceremony was held in the imperial palace. The scene was grand and solemn. In the palace, Le Shu wore a phoenix robe, which symbolized the highest rights of women, and a dazzling phoenix crown on her head.

Her face was delicate and charming, and her eyes revealed tenderness and determination. As the sound of ritual music sounded, Le Shu slowly walked towards the altar. Each step was graceful and dignified, and she stepped onto the high platform step by step.

Yinzhen held her hand, and the two of them followed closely, like shadows, and sat on the highest throne together to receive worship.

"The scenery up here is truly extraordinary. No wonder everyone can't help but chase after it."

"Although this scenery is beautiful, it is taboo to enjoy it alone!"

The two smiled at each other, and their wandering souls came into contact by chance, and together they gave birth to flesh and blood, and became real.

Their interests were too deeply intertwined, and Le Shu could not stand it. The same was true for Yinzhen. After he ascended the throne, he actually had the opportunity to use thundering means to trap Le Shu in the harem, but he did not do so.

He is a lonely man, and it is enough for him to live his whole life. It is enough for him to die for the country once. If it happens again, he cannot bear it.

Although it was the Imperial Concubine who was promoted to Queen, all the specifications were almost in accordance with the standards for marrying the Empress Dowager. Now that the national treasury is not short of money, the Ministry of Rites is naturally willing to make these arrangements.

It's evening.

The two of them sat on the red bed. They were an old couple, but today, they felt a little different.

The wedding wine was drunk, auspicious words were said, and everyone in the room left.

The red candle burned quietly, and occasionally a breeze coming through the cracks would blow the candlelight, reflecting on the wall and causing it to sway.

"Shushu, after tonight, we will be officially husband and wife."

"Well, we will continue to stick together through thick and thin from now on."

"It's getting late, let's get settled!"

As the spring tide surged, the emperor and empress had a good night's sleep.

In Jingren Palace, Ulanara, who was already a virtuous concubine, stayed awake all night, staring at the candlelight in a daze.

Camellia came over: "My lady, you are still resting."

She murmured, "Today's Queen's coronation ceremony is so lively!"

More grand and solemn than hers.

Chamei comforted her: "Your Majesty, it was when the Emperor ascended the throne, and the treasury was empty. Now that the treasury is full, it is inevitable that it will be more lively."

"It's just intentional or unintentional. Never mind. Why am I thinking about these nonsense again? It's not my place to think about them!"

Her tone was so lonely that Chamei couldn't help crying.

"Why are you crying?"

"I don't know, I just can't help crying."

"Chamei, there's no need to cry for me. I don't blame anyone anymore..."

It’s just a little regretful and a little unfair!

That night, Ulanara was thinking, what would have happened if she had not concealed her temper and worn that lively dress.

Unable to think, she said to herself: "How nice it would be if I didn't know!"

I don’t know. Just having resentment in her heart would make her feel more comfortable than the regret and resentment she feels now.

That night, the candles in the two palaces were never extinguished, but one palace was filled with joy, while the other was filled with loneliness.

Two completely different extremes.

After the emperor and empress's wedding, there was a holiday, and Yinzhen was rarely willful. He took Le Shu out of the palace without telling anyone, and his whereabouts were unknown.

However, when the emperor came back, he was in high spirits, while the queen looked a little listless, with affectionate eyes and eyebrows, which made people blush when they saw him.

Considering that the two of them usually eat whatever they want and do whatever they want, the few days they spent outside the palace must have been "full of nonsense"!

-

"My queen, the ladies and concubines in the harem have arrived."

Le Shu had not taken a close look at the people in Yinzhen's harem for a long time. Since Ulanara became the virtuous concubine, she did not have to pay her respects, and she generally would not attend except for necessary banquets.

The emperor's extreme favor made no one dare to be jealous or target anyone, and no one could withstand the emperor's wrath.

"Let's go!"

Le Shu became the queen, and she still dressed as usual. She was pretty, and her casual attire looked good too, but she was not as dignified as Ulanara used to be when she appeared in public.

Seeing her dressed like this, everyone saluted with such expressions, but they all had their own thoughts in their hearts.

"Everyone, please stand up! Please take a seat."

"Thank you, Queen."

After Ulanara sat down, she looked at the respectful attitude of the crowd and understood.

She has the emperor's favor, so no matter how simply she dresses, everyone will respect her.

But she had spent half her life in a dead end, and therefore had lost the opportunity to live in harmony with her husband from the beginning, so that they became strangers.

Ulanara understood that although Le Shu was beautiful, Yinzhen did not care much about beauty. She relied on the emperor's favor.

Why did the emperor favor her?

Because of her ability.

It’s not unfair that she lost!

Le Shu listened to everyone's compliments with a smile, gave them rewards, and then said: "From now on, everyone can come here once on the first and fifteenth day of the month, and you don't have to come every day."

She doesn't want to get up early.

No one had any objection. How could they dare to object? The Queen asked them to run less trips, and they should be grateful.

They were all honest, and although they might not have meant it, it didn't matter. Le Shu politely sent them away.

After they left, Le Shu called Nanny Su.

"The palace affairs are now in my hands. Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs has conducted an investigation, I am still worried. I have someone keep an eye on them, especially to make sure that the young ladies at the lower levels are not deducted. I have the people at the Ministry of Internal Affairs spend some time to make some fun things and send them to the masters of each palace. It will be good to kill time."

It’s better to avoid feeling depressed and going crazy.

Nanny Su smiled and said, "Your Majesty is kind-hearted. I will arrange it right away."
