Farmer of Shu Han

Although Zhou Yu died young, he died too early.

But to be honest, Sun Quanneng proclaimed himself emperor, and even Wu Guoneng has today's territory, most of which were the foundations laid by Zhou Yu when he was there.

This point, even Sun Quan dare not deny: the lonely is not Zhou Gongjin, not the emperor.

After Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan asked the prince Sun Deng to marry Zhou Yu's daughter, and at the same time asked Zhou Yu's eldest son to marry his eldest daughter Sun Luban, and also asked Zhou Yu's second son Zhou Yin to marry the daughter of the clan.

Even Zhou Yu's nephew was able to be named a partial general because of this.

The Zhou family was extremely prosperous for a time.

It's a pity that emperors are mostly merciless and ungrateful.

Time is a ruthless butcher's knife.

Thirty years is enough to make people in the world forget about meddling.

For many emperors, thirty years was long enough to thank a courtier for his merits.

Zhou Yin was demoted to be a commoner because of his crime, and went to Luling in vain.

Zhou Hu was called by Sun Quan as "sexual behavior is dangerous, and it is suitable to use it as a disaster", which can be regarded as completely cutting off his future official career.

The princess, who has always been kind and gentle, was shocked and at a loss when she learned what happened to her brother, and ran to find the prince crying and interceding:

"The adult died young, and the eldest brother died young. The concubine and the second brother are still young, so they have to depend on each other."

"Now that my second brother has violated the national law, my concubine dare not excuse him. It's just that in ancient times there was a 'Eight Discussions'. I only hope that His Highness can look at your past meritorious deeds and persuade His Majesty to let the second brother reflect on himself in a different place. crime."

Where is Luling?

It is not where the "outstanding people and spirits" of later generations are located, let alone any natural treasures.

In Luling during the Three Kingdoms period, going out was either mountains or water, dragons (that is, crocodiles) swam all over the rivers and lakes, tigers walked all over the mountains and all over the ground, and mosquitoes flew all over the sky...

Even if he stays behind closed doors and becomes an immortal cultivator, he will somehow contract miasma and die suddenly one day.

Not to mention being demoted there as a commoner, even if it is an official, it is not worth it.

That is to say, it is a little bit better than being demoted to Jiaozhou.

Sun Deng and Concubine Zhou have always been affectionate, facing his wife's crying, he is also quite helpless:

"What Xi Jun said, General Wei and other senior ministers, have already made it clear to His Majesty, but His Majesty is now in a state of righteousness, so he can't easily listen to people's words."

Having said that, he comforted Concubine Zhou and said:

"Recently, there have been a lot of things happening in the court, and His Majesty is upset. Wait for this period of time to pass... Cough cough cough!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly covered his mouth and coughed.

"Your Highness, how are you doing?"

Seeing Sun Deng like this, Concubine Zhou shed her tears in fright, and helped the prince to sit down, "Are you all right? Is it okay?"

She asked worriedly while helping to stroke her back.

Sun Deng coughed for a long time, then let go of the hand covering his mouth, breathed back and forth several times, trying to slow down his tone:

"It's okay, it's just that the old disease has relapsed because of the winter, just take a rest."

Last winter, the prince's adoptive mother, Mrs. Xu, was seriously ill, and Sun Deng rushed to Wu Jun day and night to visit her.

In the end, the Xu family couldn't make it through, and Sun Deng was so sad that he didn't even eat a drop of rice for several days, so he finally helped the coffin to be buried in person.

But at this time, Sun Quan's most beloved concubine, Bu Shi, the uncrowned queen of Wu, also died of illness in Jianye.

Sun Deng was urged by Sun Quan to rush back to Jianye day and night.

This time and again, even the iron body couldn't stand it, and Sun Deng fell ill all at once.

Although the body slowly recuperated later, the wind and cold finally took advantage of it and sneaked into the body, and finally the root cause of the disease fell.

Every time the climate changes, or every time there is a wind and cold, if Sun Deng doesn't pay attention, he will cough continuously, and his qi and blood will be hot and dry.

Looking at Concubine Zhou's worried eyes, Sun Deng smiled and comforted him:

"I'm really fine. What you said just now, although no one in the court can persuade His Majesty, there is still one person who may be able to help."

Concubine Zhou's eyes lit up: "Your Highness, please tell me."

Sun Deng lowered his voice: "The harem."

Concubine Zhou was startled: "Harem?"

"Yes." Sun Deng nodded and said, "In the past, when Empress Bu was here, she could often persuade His Majesty. Now that foreign affairs are chaotic and there is no master in the harem, His Majesty's internal and external problems are not smooth, and it is reasonable to get angry easily."

"If at this time, someone can stand up and appease His Majesty, maybe it will have a miraculous effect."

Concubine Zhou and Sun Deng have been husband and wife for many years. After hearing this, they already understood what Sun Deng said:

"Your Highness means, Mrs. Yuan?"

"Exactly." Sun Deng nodded, "You entered the palace in the name of greeting the elders, went to see Mrs. Yuan, and said that I wanted to see her and discuss something."

After the two wives of Xu Bu passed away, Emperor Sun Quan, Prince Sun Deng, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty reached an agreement to make Mrs. Yuan, who was known for her integrity and conduct, her queen.

For this reason, Sun Deng was even willing to call Yuan Shi his mother-of course, if Yuan Shi really became a queen in the future, she would naturally be the prince's aunt.

It is a pity that Mrs. Yuan thought that she was ordered to restrain her son and her daughter, so she flatly refused.

However, although Mrs. Yuan did not want to be a queen, she had a good relationship with Sun Deng.

When she learned from Concubine Zhou that the prince wanted to see her, she did not refuse.

What Sun Deng didn't expect was that after the two met, Mrs. Yuan not only refused Sun Deng's request to call her mother as usual.

Even Sun Deng's other request was flatly rejected:

"I am not the lord of the harem, how can I do things that are usurped? If I agree to His Highness, what is the difference from seeking the harem?"

But Mrs. Yuan is virtuous in the end, she thought about it, and then said another thing:

"The position of empress is not only a matter for your majesty, but also a matter for the crown prince, and it is also a matter for all the officials in the court."

"If there is no one in the palace who can take the position of empress, why not choose some newcomers to the palace. In this way, it is impossible to find a virtuous and virtuous daughter who can be the mother of the world."

Sun Deng was a little puzzled.

Seriously, why did you bring up such a thing all of a sudden?

Besides, is it what a son should do to ask his father to find more young mothers for him?

He opened his mouth, but didn't know how to answer.

After Madam Yuan finished speaking, she didn't explain too much, she just gave the Prince a meaningful look, then got up and left.

Motherhood is the highest honor for a woman.

If you say you are not moved, it is a lie.

But Mrs. Yuan knew that there was only one queen in Emperor Wu's heart, and that was Bu Lianshi—at least for now.

Now the concubines in the palace are counted as one. In the heart of the emperor, no one can compare to the empress.

The emperor's longing for Empress Bu has not yet passed away. Whoever dares to express his desire to become an empress at this time will most likely be disgusted by the emperor.

Yuan Shi didn't understand what later generations said "the best way to forget a relationship is to start another relationship".

But she knew how to get the emperor out of this emotion as soon as possible.

Just because Emperor Wu misses Empress Bu, it doesn't mean that he is dedicated.

Otherwise, Mrs. Xu was not happy to have too many women around His Majesty, so why was she sent back to Wu County?

The reason why Empress Bu can spoil the harem, apart from her appearance, more importantly, is that she is not jealous, and often actively recommends beauties to His Majesty.

It has been almost two years since Empress Bu passed away, and everyone in the palace wanted to compete for favor, but no one wanted to recommend a newcomer to His Majesty.

If this continues, His Majesty will only miss the kindness of Empress Bu even more, and will only miss Empress Bu more and more.

So...if there is a newcomer in the palace, it will probably make His Majesty happier, right?

In this case, as long as the crown prince takes the opportunity to make some requests that are not excessive, His Majesty will naturally agree.

And the life of everyone in the palace will be easier.

Sun Deng sat there for a long time, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time:

He really couldn't figure out why Mrs. Yuan would give him such a suggestion.

Sure enough, within a few days, news came out from the palace, saying that Mrs. Yuan believed that the palace had not let people out of the palace for many years, causing many palace ladies to be overage.

So she suggested to His Majesty to let some palace people go home and replace some newcomers in the palace.

Madam Yuan, who has always been virtuous, made such a suggestion, which surprised many people.

Over the years, the income of Wu's treasury has not been very good, otherwise, Wu's money would not be getting bigger and bigger.

It costs money to select newcomers in the palace.

Palace people who have let go of their age will also have to pay travel expenses when they go out of the palace.

In the past, don't say whether this matter can pass.

Even if it can pass, how long it will take to argue is still a question-who will pay? Where does the money come from?

But what people didn't expect was that the prince, who has always been known as a wise man, was silent on this matter and didn't speak out against it.

Just suggested:

"If women are selected among the people, it will not only take time, but also cost money and food, and it will disturb the people."

"If you don't choose from among the wives and daughters of officials who have committed crimes, for example, there are many daughters of officials and officials in the weaving room specially designed for weaving in the palace, and you can choose the best one from them."

"If you can meet the requirements of the palace, you don't need to choose from the people. In this way, it can also reduce the burden on the people and the court."

Hearing the prince's proposal, Sun Quan praised him again and again, saying that the prince is sensible and compassionate to the common people, which is really rare.

Both the emperor and the crown prince said so, and everyone naturally had no reason to object.

After some time, there was an official office for the wives and daughters of officials, who selected a group of women and sent the list to the palace at the same time.

Among them was a woman, surnamed Pan Mingshu, who was a descendant of a minor official. She was so beautiful that all the weaving women called her "Goddess" and kept her at a respectful distance.

The person in charge of selecting the maids informed Sun Quan of the matter, and at the same time selected Pan's painting from among the many portraits and presented it to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan, who was close to his ears, saw Pan's portrait and stood up abruptly, pressing the amber Ruyi firmly on Pan's portrait.

In the end, only a "pop" sound was heard, and Amber Ruyi was actually broken.

Sun Quan didn't realize it, and saw him say in surprise and joy:

"This is indeed a goddess! I see that her sad face is so touching, if it can make her happy, how stunning would it be?"

Lv Yi, who was standing by the side, approached a little presumptuously, glanced at the portrait, and said with a smile:

"The villain heard that this goddess died because of her father's sitting method. She was sent to the weaving room together with her sister, so she worried day and night, seldom eats, and her body is slender and soft."

The school office has the right to inspect, and they have checked the details of the list of women sent to the palace one step ahead.

Lu Yi knew very well what Sun Quan liked, so he had already prepared for it.

At this time, seeing that Sun Quan really fell in love with Pan at first sight, he naturally hurried to make fun of him:

"If she is lucky enough to accompany His Majesty, it will be like leaping from the swamp to the clouds. I'm afraid it will be too late for joy. How can she be so sad like now?"

"Your Majesty Jieshi, naturally you can see the stunning beauty of the Goddess every day."

Sun Quan was already pleasantly surprised, but now he heard Lv Yi's words, he was even more happy, and he quickly issued an edict to send a carved wheel imperial chariot to the weaving room to take Mrs. Pan into the palace.

After entering the palace, Mrs. Pan washed and bathed, and was dressed up before being sent to Sun Quan.

When Sun Quan saw the real person, he couldn't help being a little stunned.

But see:

Lishu is just in her youth, with a peerless beauty, a low emerald girl, pink cheeks and rosy cheeks, her body and figure are all suitable, the most pitiful thing is her two black eyebrows, frowning and slightly frowning, she seems to have a look of resentment.

Seeing her willow waist slightly folded, she prostrated herself on the seat, and said softly, "Pan Shu, the sinful girl, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Sun Quan felt even more charming when he heard his charming words.

"Get up!"

Sun Quan stepped forward, supported Pan, looked up and down at the woman in front of him, the more he looked at her, the more he fell in love with her.

The more he looked at her, the brighter his eyes became, he just wished he could hold her in his arms, loving her endlessly.

Seeing this, Lv Yi led the people and retreated quietly.

When he returned to the school office, he called someone over:

"Go, tell the weaving room in the palace, let them take care of Pan Shu's elder sister more in the future, and don't let her be wronged."

"But Zhongshu, the Pan family, is very likely to be connected with the East Palace."

"How do I not know?" Lu Yi's face was gloomy, "It's just that His Majesty has already taken a fancy to the Pan family, and we can only make up for it. It's not too late."

After being a mere criminal, he did not enter the weaving room, and his reputation spread to the ears of His Majesty. If it was said that no one contributed to the flames, Lu Yi naturally did not believe it.

But as His Majesty's eyes and ears, the School Affairs Office is not vegetarian.

There are various indications that Pan's matter is not planned by the East Palace for a long time, it should be a temporary idea.

If Donggong can send this girl to the palace, the school affairs office may not be able to win her over.

For the weaving room that is responsible for weaving, the school affairs office has a great say - after all, the school affairs office has a special trading channel with Xinghanhui.

It was night, as expected Pan Shu did not leave the palace, and I heard that she was going to sleep with His Majesty that night.

The news that the newcomer entered the palace and was extremely favored by His Majesty quickly spread.

The ministers in the court, these days when they go to the court, seeing His Majesty's face, seem to be much happier than in the past.

Many people breathed a sigh of relief.

This is also good, and there is no need to go to great lengths to choose girls among the people.

Prince Sun Deng took the opportunity to play to the emperor:

"After committing an official, he was still able to receive the favor of the emperor. Therefore, the general Zhou Yu, who made outstanding achievements, was exiled to the frontier without pardon. Comparing the two, I am afraid that the world will criticize your majesty for emphasizing color and despising virtue."

"My son, please Your Majesty, ask for the pardon of Zhou Yin's crimes, return the trilogy and restore his title, so as to reassure the old honor."

When Sun Quan was proud of the spring breeze, coupled with the prince's attitude in the selection of the palace maid, he finally agreed to the matter.

It is a pity that before Sun Quan's edict was sent to Luling, the news of Zhou Yin's death due to unacceptable water and soil spread to Jianye one step ahead of time.

This news made Sun Deng stare at him, and he almost missed it in one breath.

I have been busy for so long, but it was empty to fetch water from the basket, and my busy work was in vain.

In a hurry, he fell ill again.

On the other hand, Lu Yi couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the crown prince's performance in the court hall.

In the general situation of the court, the school affairs office has no right to speak at all.

But in trying to figure out people's hearts, the court officials are far inferior to Lu Yi and others.

In addition, in the past few days, he has already checked everything about Pan's family.

"Pan received the favor of Donggong and was able to enter the palace. If Donggong can use this to make friends with him, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us!"

"Who would have thought that the crown prince would dare to speak out in court that Pan's family is a criminal, and his belittling intentions were obvious to everyone."

"It must be known that Mrs. Pan is a dangerous woman, and now she has suddenly become famous. If she learns of these words, the little friendship between her and the East Palace may disappear."
