Chapter 766： general election

In addition, the empress dowager has a selfish mind.

In addition to drafting for the new emperor, she also wanted to take the opportunity to pick two good ones for King Qin.

In any case, this time she had to let King Qin marry a wife and have children and settle down in Kyoto.

She said to the mother next to her: "This man, there is always a woman to serve him. He will not be able to decide if he doesn't marry a wife and have children. This time, even though Yuan Jing calmed down the sound waves with his own sins, he also gave it to the mourning family. A reminder."

The mother smiled and said: "The emperor still loves the empress dowager, isn't it, did you send His Royal Highness back safely?"

"Although I came back and restored the title of the prince, the rest of the official positions have not been restored." The Queen Mother was a little dissatisfied. "The Aijia knows that Yuan Jing is angry. This time he was forced to compromise and commit a crime. Ji Zhao, Ai Jia also loves him."

The mother said: "Is the emperor still young?

"That's what I said." The Empress Dowager sighed, "Yuan Jing, this child, has always liked the queen. This is completely different from the first emperor. This time Shu'er also treats the queen... Don't say Yuan Jing, just change to mourn. Home is going to get angry too."

Mother said: "It's still because there is no woman by His Royal Highness King Qin."

"The Ai's family thinks so too." The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "In the past, Ai's family thought that Shu'er liked to dance knives and guns, and probably also liked women like that. Who knew he didn't like Yizhi's kind of thing, so he liked it. Like the queen."

"Even though the empress is not a superb beauty, she is really beautiful, and she speaks refreshingly, not like other women twitching." The mother smiled and said, "Since the prince likes this type, it's easy to handle. Let's follow the choice of the queen empress."

The Queen Mother said: "This draft requires a general election. Regardless of family background, as long as the appearance is outstanding and the age is outstanding, it can be sent to be selected."

According to the rules, one small election a year and a big election three years.

Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the general election is also appropriate.

The mother said: "The empress is going to Ganquan Temple to pray for blessing and copying the scriptures for three months. Shouldn't she wait for her to come back and try again?"

"Wait for her to do something." The Queen Mother said, "The draft is not a matter of overnight. You must first send the imperial decree to all parts of the country and send the show girl to Beijing. It will take two or three months. Waiting for her to come back. , After a glance, that's it."

"The Empress Dowager is right."

"Come on, invite the emperor over, and the Ai family has important matters to discuss with him."

When Zhao Yuanjing came to Ci'an Temple, he heard that the Queen Mother was going to hold a general election, so he said: "Is it a bit hasty?"

"No hurry," said the Empress Dowager, "It is a custom in the Great Zhou Dynasty that the new emperor must be elected to the throne. Firstly, it must fill the harem, and secondly, it is also a demonstration of royal favor. If a mortal woman is outstanding, it is possible. Entering the palace as a concubine."

Zhao Yuanjing does not like the boring and expensive things like drafts.

"The imperial court is not wealthy now. I have opened up a caravan by sea and haven't yet officially made money. The money from the national treasury has to be used for disaster relief in spring. The draft will be discussed in a few years," he said.

These are all major events.

But for the Royals, the draft is also a big deal.

The Empress Dowager knew that he would oppose it and was not in a hurry. Instead, she smiled and said: "The Aijia only understands that the court is a bit difficult now. For so many years, the Aijia has a little private property. This time, I will use it for the draft. "
