My Brother is a Big Shot

Chapter 105: The top brother is 21

The emperor dies and a new emperor takes the throne.

It is said that there is one emperor and one minister. Before the old emperor passed away, the ministers in the court had already started to take sides, just for the so-called merit of following the dragon.

However, the result surprised everyone. The three most popular princes were not eligible for the throne, and the throne was actually succeeded by a person they had always ignored.

None of the civil and military officials in the entire dynasty made the right bet, which was very embarrassing.

Fortunately, the new emperor has a kind heart and seems to have no intention of settling old scores. So a group of ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to think about how to build a relationship with the new emperor.

Marriage is the best way.

The emperor needs to win over the forces in the court, and the ministers need the emperor's favor. Since ancient times, after a new emperor succeeds to the throne, he will seal the harem in order to quickly stabilize the imperial power.

They thought the same was true for the new emperor.

So the Minister of Rites reported to the emperor that he should select concubines to enrich the harem.

Ministers who had daughters of suitable age at home also began to compete secretly, aiming for the position of fourth concubine. Some are even ambitious and even aim at the position of queen.

After all, who doesn’t know what’s going on with the current Queen? That was why the new emperor had to marry because of someone's plot. Moreover, the empress's background was too low. Before Song Yanqing passed the exam, she was just a peasant girl!

How can such a woman deserve to be in a lower position? Just let him go as soon as possible!

However, what is surprising is that the day after the memorial was submitted to the Minister of Rites, he resigned and returned to his hometown.

It happened so suddenly that no one knew what was going on.

However, once he left, the matter of choosing a concubine was no longer an issue. The newly appointed Minister of Rites was promoted by the new emperor himself and was loyal to him. He had been warned in private and already knew what the new emperor meant, so he would not deliberately hit the gun.

After waiting for half a month, everyone saw that the emperor did not mention the matter of choosing a concubine, so some people couldn't sit still. The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance once again published an article and mentioned old things again.

Then the next day, the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, like the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, resigned and returned home!

One of them can be said to be a coincidence, but if both of them are like this, then there is something fishy.

Someone went to ask the Minister of Household Affairs, but they couldn't find anything. He just shook his head and sighed, advising them not to mention the matter of choosing a concubine in the future.

Someone did not believe in evil and mentioned this matter again in the court, and then...

There is also no more.

In the imperial study room, Liang Maoxing and Yan Qing sat opposite each other. He pretended to be calm, but he couldn't suppress the joy in his eyes.

"Brother! Xiao Shu is pregnant and I'm going to be a father!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"Hey, don't call me Emperor. Just call me Mao Xing like before."

Yan Qing bowed his hands and said calmly, "The courtesy cannot be discarded."

Liang Maoxing could not help but let him go.

"By the way, how did you do it? Why did those people resign on their own initiative?"

Liang Maoxing was very curious. When they got married, he promised Yan Shu that they would be together for the rest of their lives. After becoming emperor, his mind did not change. So when someone asked him to choose a concubine for the first time, he wanted to tell the ministers that he would never accept a concubine, and there would only be one queen in the harem.

But Yan Qing told him not to say this, as it would cause a backlash from the courtiers, and leave everything to him.

Liang Maoxing now has full confidence in Yan Qing's ability, so when Yan Qing said this, he naturally left it to him with confidence.

Then he saw that all the ministers who mentioned the draft in their papers would submit their papers to resign the next day, without exception.

Although this also made it easier for him to promote people who were loyal to him, he was also curious about how Yan Qing did it.

Yan Qing smiled and said, "If you don't do anything bad, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Not many of these people have clean hands. The Minister of Hubu embezzled money and sold his official position privately. The son of the Minister of Rites wasted no time on human life and bullied men and women. In addition, They were in the wrong position before, so they took the initiative to resign because they were afraid that you would settle old scores.”

Yan Qing's intelligence system is still very powerful, and he knows the handles of most officials in the court. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. If it is not a matter of principle, he usually turns a blind eye.

But when it comes to issues of principle, we can only clean out these moths. Of course, if you choose to use these handles at the right time, you can make the best use of them.

"So that's it." Liang Maoxing suddenly realized, "You use these excuses to blackmail them into resigning, then the son of the Minister of Rites ignores human life and doesn't care?"

"Of course not. He no longer has the protection of his father, who is the Minister of Rites, so he will naturally have revenge and revenge."

Liang Mao Accept the harem."

Yan Qing smiled, "I heard that Mr. Zhang only has one wife and one concubine? And he is over forty and has only one son. This is too thin. Why don't the emperor show sympathy to Mr. Zhang and give him ten or eight Beauty, spread out branches and leaves for Master Zhang, and continue to have descendants."

Liang Maoxing clapped his thigh excitedly, "Okay! Let's do it! Treat the other person in his own way, haha! Let's see if he dares to push me again!"

Therefore, although Zhang Wuzheng broke the curse of "resigning from office if he advises the emperor to choose a concubine", he became even more sad and angry.

He has a deep relationship with his old wife, and his only concubine is his wife's maid. Now that the emperor has given him so many beauties, one reason is that he is too old to enjoy them, and the other reason is that he is afraid that his old wife will be angry.

Unexpectedly, the old wife not only lost her temper, but also laughed at him, "You deserve it. Who asked you to meddle in other people's business? Who doesn't know that the emperor doesn't want to have a concubine, but you still want to get into trouble. Whether he has a concubine or not is a family matter for the emperor, you Why do you care so much?”

As a woman, she deeply agreed with the emperor's actions and envied the current queen very much. How lucky must she be to meet a man who is devoted to her? And this man is still the Nine-Five Supreme.

Zhang Wuzheng's wife is not the only one who is envious. Who among the women in the world doesn't envy Yan Shu

However, Yan Shu was not just a doted dodder. After giving birth to her eldest son, she continued to devote herself to her education career.

Nowadays, she has a distinguished status and has greater appeal when doing things. She founded the first women's school, the first free school, and the first technical school in the capital.

In her school, everyone can learn the knowledge they want to learn, regardless of high or low, male or female, old or young.

After her eldest daughter and second son were born, she began to fight for the opportunity for girls' school students to take the imperial examination.

Because of the support of Yan Qing and Liang Maoxing, this matter finally succeeded after a period of tug-of-war.

She was very happy. This was a dream that she had never been able to realize. But it could give subsequent women a chance to realize their ambitions.

Liang Maoxing also worked hard to be a good emperor throughout his life. With the assistance of Yan Qing, he worked hard to realize the dream of a prosperous country and a strong people, a peaceful country and a peaceful world.

As for Yan Qing, he has never been married, and he has great power in the court and the public. To establish a destiny for the people, to carry forward the unique knowledge of the past saints, and to create peace for all generations1.
