With a sound of "A sneeze", Hu Guang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who was far away in the capital, sneezed.
"Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body."
When Queen Zhou saw it, she immediately reminded her with concern, then turned around and ordered the maid next to her, "Why don't you give your Majesty some more clothes?"
"It's okay, I'm afraid someone is thinking about me."
When Hu Guang saw it, he smiled and shook his head.
When he saw the other concubines looking at him with concern, he gestured with the hand holding the chopsticks: "It's okay, it's okay, New Year's Eve."
Everyone, please relax and enjoy your meal."
Seeing that the emperor seemed to be fine, Empress Zhou gave it up and gave instructions to the other concubines to start eating again.
But Hu Guang stopped eating.
He put down his chopsticks and looked at his wives.
Fortunately, the Ming Dynasty's aesthetic concepts were not as perverted as those of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty did not need to use the royal family for marriage, unlike the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who would marry other people's wives out of political needs, regardless of age, beauty or ugliness.
The concubines of the Ming Dynasty were all women from good families.
Just imagine, she was selected from so many girls from good families across the country.
Her beauty and talent are definitely not bad.
For example, Queen Zhou, Concubine Tian, and Concubine Yuan are all very beautiful.
The temperament they carry is simply not something that the stars of later generations can perform.
Hu Guang was looking at each one, but he didn't expect that the concubines were also looking at him secretly.
Seeing that he didn't eat, they also stopped eating one by one.
When Hu Guang saw it, he stopped trying to persuade him and said to them with a smile: "You have cooperated with me and made sacrifices in the matter of the Ming Zhonglie Hall.
I am very happy to have you as my virtuous housekeeper, helping me in difficult times of national affairs."
I am overcoming this difficult situation and I am really happy.”
"Husband and wife are one body, and what Your Majesty said is the duty of concubines."
Queen Zhou replied on behalf of the other concubines.
At the same time, he secretly made up his mind.
The emperor expressed his position like this, and he could not let anything happen to his father again.
Hu Guang listened comfortably, nodded and said with a smile: "When I revive the Ming Dynasty and the country's affairs are on the right track, I will take you all over the country of the Ming Dynasty to let you see the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty, the scenery and customs of the east, west, south and north The vast differences include vast deserts, boundless grasslands, vibrant rainforests, and towering mountains.”
Listening to his description, a group of concubines couldn't help but feel fascinated, and they were all brought into the scene he described by Hu Guang.
Only Queen Zhou came to her senses quickly, frowned, and immediately interrupted Hu Guang's words: "Your Majesty, I heard what the saint said."
"Queen, don't worry about the saint.
You are my wife.
I will take you to my territory.
If anything happens, don't worry.
I won't waste my troops or the people's money, not to mention the people's livelihood."
Hu Guang did not get angry because his interest was interrupted, but spoke in a kind manner.
I just thought in my heart that the queen is indeed good, but she is a bit old-fashioned, which is not good.
Seeing that the emperor's attitude was very good, a concubine hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Your Majesty, the harvests among the people have been very bad in recent years.
My father said a few days ago that the family only has a little bit of farmland, and the family expenses are all gone."
I am very nervous.
I would like to ask your majesty to give my father some land to support my family.”
If the original Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood after hearing this, he would probably agree.
But Hu Guang frowned when he heard that.
After thinking about it, he shook his head and said: "If you are really tight on money, just transfer some silver from the palace.
I have other considerations about the land, so I won't mention it for now."
The land granted by the emperor to his relatives and nobles was the only land in the Ming Dynasty that was explicitly exempted from taxation and military service.

Hu Guang wanted to reform finance and taxation and increase treasury revenue.
He had already noticed this aspect when discussing with several ministers.
He does not have a complete report on this part of the land yet, so he has not made a decision yet, but one thing he is sure of is that he definitely does not want to increase the land grant at this time.
After Hu Guang finished speaking, he turned to look at the eldest wife, Queen Zhou, and said, "Queen, please worry about her."
Queen Zhou glanced at the concubine, turned back and agreed.
Unconsciously, the atmosphere at the family dinner became a little solemn.
Seeing this, Hu Guang smiled at Concubine Tian and said, "Sing the song before and listen to it.
When you turn around, everyone in the palace must be able to sing it."
Suddenly, everyone's attention was focused on Concubine Tian.
Concubine Tian's singing and dancing are recognized as the best in the palace.
Being respected by the emperor, some people would be a little jealous.
However, Concubine Tian doesn't care about this.
The emperor likes her, and she only cares about the queen next week.
Hu Guang listened to her singing the national anthem that he had racked his brains to come up with.
The beautiful voice contained the excitement unique to military music.
He heard it very well and couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly.
When the song ended, he nodded in praise, then turned to look at Queen Zhou and said: "This is the national anthem appointed by me, and everyone in the Ming Dynasty is required to be able to sing it.
Outside, I have asked the Ministry of Rites to promote this matter.
Inside the palace, The queen and Concubine Tian need to take more care.
Well, they must play a leading role and set an example to influence the families of civil and military officials."
This was what he suddenly thought of.
If he wanted to promote it as soon as possible, most people would just say that the Ministry of Rites would promote it.
However, when it comes to the families of civil and military officials, the Ministry of Rites is not able to exert its efforts.
But if the harem takes the lead, the effect will be much better.
As long as the upper class people of the Ming Dynasty are doing it, in the words of later generations, a fashion will be formed from top to bottom, which will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
The simple family dinner ended with unconscious discussion of state affairs, and then came the stay-at-home party.
It was only at this time that Hu Guang had the leisure to worry about the chat group.
After his consciousness entered the chat group, he glanced at the lower left corner of the chat group and couldn't help but curl his lips and smile.
The achievement value is 23456 He knew that most of this achievement value came from the contribution of those Qin Wangjun soldiers this morning.
If there were no distance restrictions, he had every reason to believe that this number would probably have to add 0.
With so many achievement points, there is nothing to say.
Hu Guang opened the upper limit of the 17th level group in one go, and the achievement points were immediately reduced to 6456.
On this New Year's Eve, he took a deep breath and immediately started adding people.
He filled up the quota for the elementary group in one go.
A total of 21 people were added, leaving 4356 achievement points.
There were 26 people in the elementary group.
The warning sound of someone entering the group sounded continuously, which immediately brought out all the divers in the elementary group.
Some asked what was going on, some asked about the identity of the person who came in, some showed off their identities, and so on.
But Hu Guang didn't care about this.
What he cared about was that so many people had been added this time, and it was time to upgrade the chat group.
