If it was still the original class, Chen Feng had no doubt that those tribute girls were definitely original and dedicated to the emperor. If they were not virginity, wouldn’t it be a crime of beheading? Of course, some emperors who did not like in history were exceptions.

Qingqing is different. Qingqing even gave birth to a son. Although Qingqing's body has always been like that, those experienced female officials can tell at a glance that Qingqing has given birth to a child.

"Aren't they checked out by the people brought by the emperor in the capital?" Lan Yuhan asked.

In Dadu, except for Li Lizhen, the rest of the tribute women were checked by people assigned by the emperor. Lan Yuhan knew about these things, otherwise, she would not have been so relieved to let Qingqing replace Cui Enxi.

"Yes, the problem is that it's different if you go to Yingtian and the harem. There are not only Queen Ma, but also other concubines. If some concubines want to make things difficult for the new concubine, they might instigate Queen Ma." Chen Feng said.

In the harem, it is very good to compete for favor. Li Lizhen is a newcomer, but she has won the favor of the emperor. It is hard to guarantee that anyone will be jealous and give Li Lizhen a warning.

I can't check the bodies of these tribute women, but I can't find anything. It's just to suppress Li Lizhen's majesty. However, if I really check it, I'd really find something.

When Chen Feng thought of this, he naturally became very anxious.

"Brother Feng, then, what should we do?" Lan Yuhan asked.

In fact, the best choice at the beginning was to let the real tribute girl follow her into the palace first. When the right time, the two of them would change over, but now it is too late to say anything.

"Let's go to Yingtian first and find out the situation." Chen Feng said.

Now, it’s too late to say anything, so I’d better wait and see. Anyway, this time I’ve come out, and it’s only a day or two to go to Yingtian at the speed of the two of them.

When the two discussed, they did not shy away from Han E at all. To them, Han E was definitely her own person.

"Brother Feng, Xiao E will go with you." When Han E heard that the two were leaving, he also expressed his opinion.

Chen Feng thought for a while and asked Han E to go with him. He couldn't let Han E go to Dadu alone. Moreover, this time he went to Yingtian and could also go to Pingjiang to let her meet Han Xue and her sisters.

In a flash, I haven't seen each other for several years. Han Xue actually thought about her sister every day.

"Okay, let's go together." Chen Feng said.

…………

Yingtian, in the imperial palace, Fengxian Hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang reviewed the memorials, and gradually his forehead gradually wrinkled.

Almost half of the memorials were impeached by Liu Ji.

Liu Ji was killing people in the place where he asked for rain, which made God angry, so there was no rain. Now, the drought in the north has been several months, and it was obvious that God was angry. Now, if you want to make heavy rain fall from the sky, you must severely punish Liu Ji!

Almost all of this argument.

After responding to the sky, Zhu Yuanzhang's main task was to deal with this matter. Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to punish Liu Ji immediately to calm the anger of the ministers.

But afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang changed his mind. Those who impeached Liu Ji must be Li Shanchang's accomplices. So, who is the backbone in it?

Zhu Yuanzhang protected Liu Ji. Seeing that the emperor attached so much importance to Liu Qingtian, the others could only endure it and did not submit memorials again.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that these people were offended by the ministers who Liu Ji had offended some time because of the rectification of officials.

Now, those who take advantage of the issue are completely the backbone of Li Shanchang's school.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that some things could not be continued by force suppression by him alone. As long as he did not suppress Liu Ji, these people would keep making trouble.

But Li Shanchang was very calm. He directed his best friends to write letters to him, but he didn't even submit a memorial.

It seems that we can only punish Liu Ji first to calm the public's anger.

Send Liu Ji back to his hometown and take a break. Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang closed the memorial. After returning, Zhu Yuanzhang kept thinking about a question: the Prime Minister's power is too great.

The position of prime minister has existed since the first emperor of the Central Plains, but this position has always posed a threat to the imperial power.

In the court, the prime minister was the head of the prime minister, and many things were that even the emperor could not do anything to the prime minister. The prime minister would contact all officials to put pressure on the emperor together.

After conquering the world, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to concentrate all his power in his hands, but now he is facing challenges from the prime minister.

Thinking of this, suddenly, an idea came to my mind. What if the position of Prime Minister was removed?

If the Prime Minister is removed and the power in the Prime Minister is distributed to three people, and these three people are directly responsible to themselves, in this way, they can better grasp the imperial power.

This idea flashed into Zhu Yuanzhang's mind and could no longer be erased. However, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that this time was definitely not the time to change the position of prime minister.

Li Shanchang did not make any big mistakes. The Ming Dynasty had just been established, and everything must comply with the rules passed down. Now I can only consider it first. As for the actual implementation, it will take a few years before I talk about it.

In addition to this question, there is another thing.

Last night, the emperor had to know the actions of the ministers as much as he could. So, how could he master the movements of the ministers? It seems that he had to find a trustworthy minister and change his functions and monitor the movements of the ministers. At the same time, he was full of eyewitnesses from the people, so that he could not only investigate the ministers and the people. More importantly, he also had to develop some eyewitnesses in most of the capital. Yes, that's it!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled on his face. It should not be difficult to change the functions of the Jinyiwei. However, the commander of the Jinyiwei is a very important person. Who is sent to be the official position?

Xu Da, Tang and Zhu Yuanzhang were the people whom Zhu Yuanzhang trusted the most. When he was a child, he followed Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the world. However, these people were only suitable for war and were not suitable for such intelligence work. Moreover, they had close ties with ministers in the court, and they might have a private relationship when encountering problems.

Neither of them fits.

Or is it the eunuch around you? These people, who follow Zhu Yuanzhang day and night, are naturally Zhu Yuanzhang's confidants. However, the eunuch's function is to help the emperor handle matters in life and must not interfere in politics. If eunuchs interfere in politics, it is a sign of destruction of the country.

This is not appropriate either.

With the ability and no favoritism, the civil and military officials in the court seemed to be unable to find a suitable person.

Just when he was in a dilemma, suddenly, a person appeared in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

This man gave himself several suggestions on his way to Dadu with him, and his strategies were considered insightful compared to other officials, which shows that this man is indeed very smart and capable. Moreover, he has only recently come up and has no intersection with other important officials in the court. Moreover, in the memorial he just submitted, he was not seen impeaching Liu Ji.

It should be more appropriate to let this person take this position.

The only thing that is lacking is that I don’t know how loyal this person is. It’s not the Chen Feng faction or the Liu Ji faction, and I don’t know what it has to do with Li Shanchang. It seems that I can use him first, but give him less power. Wait until it depends on how much he does things, and then slowly increase his power. If it is not suitable, then replace him.

What's this person's name? It seems that his surname is Hu, by the way, his name is Hu Weiyong!

Another day, I asked Hu Weiyong to come over and see how he was, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of it.

Finally closing the last memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang put down his major issues and looked up again. Through the skylight above his head, he could already see the stars in the sky. Unexpectedly, it was already night.

Every day, when attending court and reviewing memorials took up a lot of time for Zhu Yuanzhang, but he always enjoyed it. He wanted to ask about everything, and he had to decide the world alone.

"Come on, get on your way." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Yes, the emperor." Eunuch Gao, who was on duty, came up and greeted him: "Your Majesty, which palace tonight?"

"Go to Changchun Palace." Zhu Yuanzhang decided his destination without thinking.

"Go up, Changchun Palace." Eunuch Gao shouted, outside, the sedan chair was ready.

Every emperor has beauties in the harem. Although San Qian said more, there were seven or eight concubines of Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, but those people were all arranged by Empress Ma. Which one can have the temperament and appearance of Concubine Wang? Although Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Empress Ma had good intentions and was strong for him, Empress Ma didn't know that what Zhu Yuanzhang really liked was the type of Concubine Wang.

Today, Concubine Wang just came back, so Zhu Yuanzhang naturally wanted to go to Concubine Wang to sleep with him. Although it was impossible to do that kind of thing because Concubine Wang was pregnant, it was also a pleasure to tell Concubine Wang about his heart and let Concubine Wang chat with him.

The emperor's imperial chariot headed towards Changchun Palace.

The stars are dotted, the starry sky is shining.

In a huge palace, it was deserted at this time. The palace maids and eunuchs left, leaving only one palace maid.

Although Concubine Li Shu was relatively strong and was a good job before she married Zhu Yuanzhang, she had become a good person in the workplace since she became Zhu Yuanzhang's wife and concubine, especially when she moved into the palace, Concubine Li Shu was used to being served. Especially now, she had children in her belly and became even more lazy to move.

I went to the queen's place and just pretended to behave. After I came back, Concubine Li did nothing.

Now, there is only a little palace maid left by my side, and the rest are gone.

This place has become a cold palace.

The so-called cold palace has no fixed location. This palace is still the palace where Concubine Li Shu walked, but it is no longer as warm as before.
