Chapter 762 General Election

In addition, the Empress Dowager also has a selfish heart.

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 the capital.

She said to the nanny beside her: "This man always needs a woman to serve him. If he doesn't marry a wife and have children, he won't be able to settle down. This time, although Yuan Jing calmed down the sound wave with the sinful edict. Woke up."

The mother smiled and said: "The emperor still loves the empress dowager, no, he sent His Highness King Qin back safely?"

"Although I came back and restored the prince's title, the rest of the official positions have not been restored." The empress dowager was a little dissatisfied, "The Ai family knows that Yuan Jing is angry, and this time he was forced to compromise and committed a crime." Jizhao, the Ai family also feel sorry for him."

The mother said: "The emperor is still young, so it's inevitable that he will be impulsive."

"That's true." The Empress Dowager sighed, "Yuanjing, this child, has always liked the queen. This is completely different from the late emperor. This time, Shu'er also treats the queen... Don't talk about Yuanjing, just mourn The family is also going to be angry."

Nanny said: "It's still because His Highness King Qin doesn't have a woman by his side."

"The Ai family thinks so too." The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "In the past, the Ai family thought that Shu'er liked to wield knives and guns, and probably also liked women like that. Who knew that he didn't like Yizhi like that, but fell in love with her?" Like a queen."

"Even though the empress is not the ultimate beauty, she is really pretty and lovely, and she speaks clearly, unlike other girls who are shy and shy." The mother said with a smile, "Since the prince likes this type, it will be easy to handle. Let's choose according to the empress's choice."

The Empress Dowager said: "This time, there will be a general election. Regardless of family background, as long as you are outstanding in appearance, talent, age, and other aspects, you can be sent for election."

According to the rules, there is one election every year and one election every three years.

Now that the new emperor is on the throne, a general election should be held.

The mother said: "The empress is going to Ganquan Temple to pray for blessings and copy scriptures for three months. Should I wait for her to come back before drafting?"

"What are you waiting for her?" The Empress Dowager said, "The talent show does not happen overnight. It will take two or three months to send the imperial decree to all parts of the country and send the show girl to Beijing. Wait for her to come back." , after a while, that’s it.”

"The Empress Dowager is right."

"Come here, invite the emperor over, the Ai family has something important to discuss with him."

Zhao Yuanjing came to Ci'an Palace, and when he heard that the Empress Dowager was about to hold a general election, he said, "Isn't it a little too hasty?"

"No hurry." The Empress Dowager said, "There is a custom in the Great Zhou Dynasty. When the new emperor ascends the throne, there must be a general election. First, it must fill the harem. Second, it is also to show the royal favor. If a mortal woman is outstanding, it is also possible. Entering the palace as a concubine."

Zhao Yuanjing doesn't like drafts, which are boring and costly.

"The imperial court is not rich now, and I have opened up a sea route caravan, and it has not yet officially made money. The money from the treasury has to wait for the spring disaster relief. The draft will be discussed in a few years." He said.

These are big things.

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

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