Chapter 175: Thorn Heads

"Imperial Study Room" is the signature of the imperial officials. This institution is a bridge between the great emperor and the imperial government. It is uploaded and delivered. Scholars regard it as the important place of the Qing Dynasty. If you can enter, you will be proud of it. Every year, the day when selecting clerks from the new Jinshi is an opportunity that all scholars dream of.

No wonder, look at the nobles who came from the Imperial Study Room back then, Chen Bingying, the second-ranked figure of the People's Livelihood Party, Ma Deng, Deputy Speaker of the Council, Chen Baozhen, Governor of Luzon, Huang Zunxian, Director of the General Administration of Immigration Affairs of North China (Siberia), Li Shuchang, State Political Consultative and Governor of Guangdong Province, Tan Zhonglin, Appeasement Commissioner of the Western Regions (Central Asian provinces), the main brains of the State Council institutions such as Zhang Zhidong, important personnel from all provinces, etc., are all the best figures in the imperial political circles.

For example, Ming De, the governor of Maputo's overseas province, was raised by the royal family by the son of Alhatu, a guard beside the emperor. He also followed the emperor in the imperial study for several years and soon became a rare talent.

It seems that after being with the Emperor for a long time, I can be enlightened, and it is like standing on the shoulders of a giant, thinking about everything, and the sky is wide.

The imperial study room is located in the Wenhua Hall in the southeast corner of the Forbidden City. It was originally an office in the imperial city where the imperial government was permanently located. Every day, the deputy prime ministers were on duty. Since Ye Zhao went abroad, this institution was abolished. After Ye Zhao returned to Beijing, it became the office of the imperial study room, which was completely separated from the inner palace. The gate court that entered from the Donghua Gate was also replaced by the inner guards to ordinary guards in the imperial guard camp.

Wang Yirong, the chief minister of the Imperial Study, is from Shandong, and has a scholarly family. He followed his father to Beijing in his childhood. He has become famous in Beijing since childhood. He has a talent that he never forgets. He was the top scholar in the empire for 11 years and was appointed by Ye Zhao to enter the Imperial Study.

Yan Fu, the young minister of the imperial study room, was the former imperial consulate Yan Zongguang, who was the former imperial consulate in Singapore. Ye Zhao returned to the country and summoned him to the imperial study room to cultivate. Yan Zongguang was happy and changed his name to Yan Fu to show his ambition.

Both of them are not old. Zhengqing Wang Yirong is 37 years old and Shaoqing Yan Fu is only 28 years old. This is also in line with the style of the great emperor's imperial study.

Now Wang Yirong and Yan Fu sit on both sides of Ye Zhao, listening to Ye Zhao discussing the leverage effect of taxation on regulating income. On the radio, there is a slightly enchanting female voice broadcasting the battle report of the Royal Army.

The main effect of the Imperial Study Room lies in government affairs, military issues, etc. The decisions of the Military Commission were made by the Military Commission. Therefore, the two were not very clear about the progress of military use in Afghanistan. Apart from newspapers and magazines, the two really had no reliable sources of information. Just now, when the two were listening to the radio's battle report discussion, the emperor suddenly arrived. They didn't have time to turn off the radio, and Ye Zhao had already entered the house.

Yan Fu wanted to turn off the radio just now, but Ye Zhao stopped him. He bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, I'd better shut it down."

Ye Zhao smiled and waved his hand and said, "I won't talk about it for now, listen."

In just half a month, the Imperial Royal Army Pamir Mountain Division had conquered Kabul, the capital of the Afghanistan. The Islamic regime in Afghanistan fled to Kandahar, only 100 kilometers away from the British-Indian colonies to make its final resistance. King Abdul Rahman, who was in exile in the Buhada Khanate, and his exiled government returned to Kabul with the help of the Chinese, announcing the restoration of the dynasty yesterday.

In fact, when the main force of the Afghan Islamic National Army was defeated by the imperial border guards in the early stages of the war, the Afghans were no longer able to gather a group of resistance. However, this is the problem. It is easy to defeat the regular Afghan army and even occupy the big cities of Afghanistan. However, the key is how to deal with the harassment of the Afghan guerrillas. This also depends on King Rahman's appeal to other nationals and the power of the Islamic Protestant believers.

Although the British and Indian authorities may have conquered the capital of Afghanistan while the British and Indian authorities were still talking, the next attack on Kandahar may not be so smooth. The Islamic regime in Afghanistan must have asked for help from Britain. How could the British be willing to let the regime they supported collapse like this?

"In the Battle of Bagland, the Pamir Mountain Division of the Royal Army of our empire, led by the commander of Ma Yukun, had achieved complete success. It wiped out the Afghan Islamic Corps with extremely minor casualties, and killed more than 20,000 enemies. It killed the enemy with fierce and stubbornness, promoted the national prestige of our empire, treated the chiefs with preferential treatment, and spread the light of civilization. What a magnificent warrior of our empire! The empire will win!"

Then, the majestic music sounded on the radio, and the passionate music made people feel like they were on the battlefield, as if the bloody battlefield between the Emperor's Team and the alien race was right in front of them, making people feel excited and unable to control themselves for a long time.

When fighting with Afghanistan, the focus is not on major battles, but on the battle commander, unit number, etc., there is no need to keep it confidential. In the press release of the military's briefing meeting to the press, some details of the war were also revealed.

Ye Zhao sang a tea and said, "Okay, in the future, I will give you a copy of the documents from the Military Commission. The confidentiality level is above level B, and only you two have the right to read." Seeing the two of them happy, he said, "A country wants to win a battle, after all, it is to compete for economy, resources, and industrial production capacity. Therefore, how to govern is the foundation of a country's prosperity and strength. You must put the cart before the horse."

At this moment, a heroic and handsome female guard hurried in and whispered a few words in Ye Zhao's ear. Wang Yirong and Yan Fu both knew this female officer with acne on their faces, Baozhu, the deputy director of the Inner Guards, and a very powerful woman.

Ye Zhao shook his head and said, "Okay, you guys talk. I haven't said a few words yet, there's something going on again."

Wang Yirong and Yan Fu hurriedly stood up and gave him respectfully.

When Ye Zhao returned to the East Warm Pavilion of Yangxin Palace, Zhu Sisi was waiting. Her sister Zhu Qiqi was also here. The two sisters were wearing light green skirts, the same slender flesh stockings, modern milky white leather shoes, and the same bright and charming beauties, but the big and small beauties were very different in style. One was a dignified and beautiful mother of the country, and the other was a young and active little Ai Meng. The two sisters stood together, which was really beautiful and interesting, and the room was bright, which was really pleasing to the eye.

Ye Zhao felt a little upset when he saw the sisters. In fact, since he favored Zhu Qiqi, Sisi rarely saw him with her sister. It was because she saved herself from this lustful man and thought a lot. She thought that she would have a little awkward to see her at the same time as her sister.

But today, she brought Zhu Qiqi with her. Ye Zhao was puzzled, but when she saw the sisters living in the same room, she always felt something strange in her heart.

"What are you planning to deal with Guiren Qin?"

After chatting for a while, Zhu Sisi asked a question, which made Ye Zhao realize that it was for Guiren Qin.

Guiren Qin is now under house arrest in Yihexuan. When she heard that she had told Hua Ji, Yiori and others who were going to persuade her, she would be separated. When she divorced in the future, the queen Rong'er, who had already advocated severe punishment for her, was so angry that she wanted to persuade her. She would not go now and would keep her cold palace and imprison her forever.

The matchmaker also felt that Concubine Qin was too much. He heard that he pointed at Ye Zhao and called his name in front of Ye Zhao to divorce him. He was still a little sympathetic to her, but now he no longer pleads for her.

The most important thing in royal family affairs is naturally Rong'er and Matchmaker. Secondly, after Jin Feng's death, it was Zhu Sisi, the imperial concubine.

Although Zhu Sisi had not mentioned this to Ye Zhao, Ye Zhao knew that Zhu Sisi's personality was so naturally hoped that she would forgive Guiren Qin. Today she brought her sister, and she was even more honoring to be no longer drunk.

As she still has some potential for being a fool in her eyes, she brought the new nobleman in the palace, her new favorite, and her own sister Zhu Qiqi. She hoped that her sister would also say a few words for her sister, right? She also hoped that she would be so soft for her sake.

Ye Zhao was a little amused and laughed. In fact, when it comes to the matter of Guiren Qin, he was not angry. With a person like Guiren Qin, he confirmed the changes he brought to the empire from another aspect. The concubines asked for divorce. As far as Ye Zhao knew, there was also the imperial concubine Wen Xiu, the late Qing emperor Puyi, who was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

However, the former Qing Dynasty had been overthrown at that time. Puyi was an exiled emperor who was wandering in the Tianjin Concession and sought the Japanese to help him establish a regime. He was the founding lord of the empire as the rising sun. The two were completely incomparable. Of course, Puyi was not as royal as himself. There were dozens of concubines, and he and Wenxiu were more like husband and wife. In any case, the changes over the past few decades have obviously touched some traditional thinking patterns of the ancient empire. Although it was just an isolated case, it was the beginning.

But Ye Zhao is not angry or angry, but it is impossible for him to really divorce Qin Guiren. The current royal divorce scandal will not promote imperial thoughts. Promoting equality between men and women does not mean encouraging divorce. No matter how many years in the future, if the divorce becomes indifferent to the marriage status of a nation, it is really a tragedy for this nation.

Moreover, Ye Zhao was also very clear about the importance of maintaining the prestige of the royal family to this multi-ethnic empire today. Before the ethnic groups in the Western Regions became "Chinese", the mysterious and sacred royal family, Tian Khan, maintained their faith in their loyalty and the faith in maintaining the stability of the empire.

"What should I do if you say?" Ye Zhao asked Zhu Sisi with a smile.

Zhu Sisi touched the snow-white and white wrists to help Ye Zhao pour tea and said, "Divorce is absolutely not feasible, but if she was said to be sent to the cold palace and imprisoned for a lifetime, the matter spreads, and the reputation of the emperor is greatly damaged. The emperor said that in today's world, information circulation channels are getting smoother and smoother, and the secrets of the royal family are no secrets sooner or later. This matter can be hidden for ten or twenty years, but it can't be hidden in the world. It is said that Qin Guiren adhering to the morals of his wife outside and did not commit the crime of great rebellion. He was imprisoned for a lifetime. How do you comment on his history books in the future? Now no one dares to disrespect you, but thousands of years later, this injustice will fall on you and your descendants of your concubines. How can they deal with it at that time? How can they maintain your reputation?"

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "It seems you have an idea?"

Zhu Sisi said softly and said, "What the Empress said makes a lot of sense. If you escape from the palace privately, you will always punish me. I just hope that the emperor will give me a favor and a small punishment and a great warning. When I am a sister Qin, I will go and lobby."

Ye Zhao waved his hand and said, "You, don't bother. That guy doesn't have enough oil and salt to get in. He's even more thorny than you before."

Zhu Qiqige smiled and asked, "Sister, why did you and your brother-in-law thorn your head?" She didn't know how Ye Zhao and Zhu Sisi met and got together back then.

Zhu Sisi was speechless for a while. After a while, she said, "I think it's time to find something for her first, such as the Imperial Study Room, so that she can have more contact with you, and she will inevitably lose her mind for divorce. She just wants to punish her, but the Queen to decide."

Ye Zhao shook his head and said, "Forget it, if this continues, are there any rules in the palace? I just issued an edict to the clan mansion, asking them to study marriage laws and royal ceremonies and see how to punish her." As he said, he remembered the officials of the clan mansion a few days ago when they heard that according to the current folk laws and royal ceremonies, how could there be no imperial concubine leaving the palace without authorization and divorce the emperor and the imperial concubine. Zuo Zongzheng of the clan mansion was so scared that he knelt down and kowtowed. He didn't know what mistake he had made to make the emperor angry, right? The imperial concubine leaving the palace without authorization? Divorce? I never thought about it? There is no such a ridiculous thing in the world. If it is written into the law, wouldn't the universe be reversed?

Zhu Sisi was stunned when she heard Ye Zhao's words and said, "You are the saying that family scandals should not be made public. Have the emperor told the clan's mansion?" Then she saw Ye Zhao's smile on his lips, and knew that he was fooling him again.

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Before I was talking, I was scared back by Debin's men." Prince Rui died of illness, Debin was demoted to assassinate the throne, granted Duke Enping, and granted the clan mansion to the clan mansion to help Ye Zhao take care of the royal family's choir.

Nowadays, Prince Lao Rui's clan is only the leader of Debin. His brother De Chang was severely cured when he was on a mission to Guangzhou with his father during the Qing Dynasty. After returning, he lost a lot of illness. His body has not yet recovered. Although he is not dead, he is also sick all day long, afraid of light and water. His sick and sick son, who is a child friend of the emperor, and his current holy family, are in a world.

I heard that Dechang's beautiful wife and concubines had run away, and there was only one girl who beat a child to serve him by his side. In addition to being unhappy with retribution, it can be said that the troubles are in the face of people. I just don't know what Guo Luoluo, who had a bad relationship with Dechang back then, feels now.

"I'll think about this matter." Ye Zhao thought, "But in the end, the queen still has to make the decision. She is the leader of the six palaces."

Zhu Sisi said: "Even if I come from Kunning Palace and go back from the emperor, I still have to go there again."

Ye Zhao smiled. Zhu Sisi has changed now. Rong'er, who saw her first, came to see herself again. The little girl who insisted in the past was gradually missing. I really don't know whether it was good or bad. However, in this life, people will always be affected by the environment around them. How can there be a constant person? A traitor may be a passionate patriot when he was young. When he looked at people, he could not look at them at the same time. Of course, some things in Sisi's bones have not changed, but they just changed their way to fight for what she wanted.

Zhu Sisi was still waiting for it, Baozhu hurriedly walked in and sent a secret letter of fire. It was an urgent telegram from the Moscow Intelligence Station that had just been translated from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Ruisi didn't even have time to copy a copy by himself, so he quickly sent it to the palace and handed it to Baozhu himself.

The telegram said that when the Austro-Hungarian delegation passed through Moscow, it was attacked by gunmen from Belarusian national radicals. The mission's chief commissioner Earl Jura was shot and was in emergency treatment in the hospital.

Ye Zhao looked at the telegram and his eyebrows gradually frowned... [To be continued
