Queen Mother, Queen Mother He, what does she mean?

Wang Yuan's brain was running rapidly.

He couldn't help but think of the Empress Dowager He who "exposed her family scandal" to him two or three months ago.

At that time, Wang Yuan had some speculation: the Queen Mother wanted to teach the young emperor a lesson through the wedding.

So that he can know that being an emperor requires making choices, rather than acting arbitrarily.

But at this moment, seeing Queen Mother He being so serious, Wang Yuan felt an extra layer of worry.

The Queen Mother who came to court did not simply want to teach the young emperor a lesson, but she did not want to return power easily.

At the beginning, the late emperor had just passed away, and the queen mother and three assistant ministers assisted the new emperor.

In order to show that she did not seek power, Empress Dowager He did not appoint female officials.

For example, in the previous dynasty, there were "female ministers" in the palace.

It is not a real minister, but used to review memorials outside the palace and organize documents and materials for the emperor.

Empress Dowager He is a woman, and she has the needs and conditions to be canonized as a "Female Minister".

However, Queen Mother He did not do this.

First, she wanted to appease the courtiers and prove that she was not a power-hungry person.

She was just worried that her son was too young to be in charge, so she had to step in personally.

Secondly, he was probably expressing his stance to the little emperor.

The relationship between the supreme mother and her son was not very close to begin with. If the Queen Mother He acted too forcefully, the young emperor would definitely be suspicious of her.

How many queen mothers during the Han Dynasty controlled the government?

The Lu family, the Dou family, and Wang Zhengjun controlled the court, deposed the emperor, and their relatives' chaos in the government reached its peak.

These are lessons learned from the past.

Not to mention the bloodline of close relatives, among the queen mothers of the dictatorship, which one is not the emperor’s mother? Grandmother?!

Rights are so attractive.

Father and son, mother and son, brothers and sisters will all turn against each other because of it.

At that time, Empress Dowager He wanted everyone to know that she was not a person who wanted to take power, and she would not be Empress Lu or Empress Dou!

Therefore, she did not canonize the female minister.

The usual paperwork, sorting and other tasks are usually taken care of by the palace staff around her.

Four years had passed, and the little emperor was about to get married and take charge of the government, but "Queen Mother He" suddenly proposed to make Wang Shijiu a maid!

What exactly does she mean?

Among the female servants, there is no female minister, but both of these official positions are titles conferred on the female relatives of powerful people.

And in history, they all have certain responsibilities.

Wang Yuan really couldn't stop thinking about it.

"The emperor is still too young, and I am only one person after all. I need the help of my female relatives who are talented, knowledgeable and good-looking!"

He Tiantian seemed not to notice the exploration in Wang Yuan's eyes. She continued at her own pace, "In addition to the Nineteenth Mother, I also have a crush on the Seventh Mother of the Xiao family."

Xiao family?

Lanling Xiao family!

It is also a family that has been around for hundreds of years, a famous family in Jiangzuo.

The head of the family in the capital, Xiao Tong, was the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and a very powerful figure.

"And the Twelfth Mother of the Yang family is also pretty good!"

He Tiantian said something leisurely.

Yang family?

Hongnong Yang!!

Wang Yuan knew the meaning of "Queen Mother He".

If the Wang family was unwilling to get involved in the fight between the Queen Mother and the young emperor, and the Nineteenth Mother was not allowed to accept the canonization of the maids, the Queen Mother He would choose women from other aristocratic families.

Wang Yuan's eyes flickered and his palms were slightly sweaty.

Is this an opportunity or a trouble?

He quickly weighed it in his mind.

In fact, their 19th mother has the most advantage——

Her grandfather was the Minister of Guan Ming, and her husband was the Crown Prince of Nanping. As for her, she did not like or owe anything to the Queen Mother.

If Wang Yuan agrees, Wang Shijiu will be the most capable and trustworthy female official around Queen Mother He.

Wang Shijiu may not be able to go to court to participate in politics, but she can still have access to government affairs through Queen Mother He and has certain rights.

This is definitely beneficial to the Wang family.

Of course, that doesn't mean there are no dangers.

In case the young emperor takes charge, there will definitely be a fight between him and the Queen Mother He.

As Queen Mother He's "confidant", Wang Shijiu will definitely be affected.

Maybe he will become a victim between the Supreme Mother and her son.

...Danger and opportunity coexist.

And that's what politics is.

Wang Yuan comes from a noble family, is good at planning, and is better at investing in advance.

In the past, he accurately selected the late Emperor.

Let the Wang family continue to be proud of other aristocratic families in the new dynasty.

now……

Although she is just a little maid, and even though Nineteenth Mother is already married, but——

Wang Yuan finally made a decision.

However, he still said politely: "I would like to thank the Empress for the reward on behalf of the Nineteenth Mother! The Empress is so considerate and considerate of the Nineteenth Mother, the Nineteenth Mother and the entire Wang family are indescribably grateful!"

"It's just that this matter ultimately concerns the Nineteenth Niang. It's not good for me to overstep my authority."

He Tiantian raised the corners of her lips and said, "What Zhongshu Ling said is that you just go home and tell the Nineteenth Mother."

"Whether she wants to accept the title of maid, it's up to her."

When Wang Yuan heard this, he quickly straightened his back, bowed deeply with both hands, and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother!"

…

"Aweng, I do!"

After being called back to her parents' home by her grandfather's order, Wang Shijiu thought about it for a moment and then responded firmly after listening to her grandfather's story.

She is a noble daughter of a noble family and has received the best education since she was a child.

She is not only good at taking care of the housework and managing the servants, she is also familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and has studied the government affairs manuscripts of the ancestors of the past generations.

She wanted to be a queen before, not only because of the dignity and prominence of that position, but also to have the opportunity to contact the government.

In this era, the restrictions on women were not so strict.

Women from some aristocratic families may even become the think tanks of their fathers and brothers.

They are knowledgeable, their horizons are broad, and they are resourceful.

Although men always say "women are not allowed to participate in politics", once you sit in the position of queen or queen mother, you cannot allow others to stop you from doing many things.

Wang Shijiu is not very ambitious, but she is not willing to remain silent in the back house.

I wandered around in such a small yard all day, worrying about trivial things.

However, she was unlucky and met an emperor with a "love brain".

As a last resort, Wang Shijiu married the prince of Nanping.

The reason why she chose Prince Nanping among the three candidates provided by her grandfather was because the Prince of Nanping had both royal title and military power.

For reference, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, which had frequent regime changes, show that women from top aristocratic families like Wang Shijiu did not have much respect for the imperial power.

Not to mention others, even the late emperor seized the country from the hands of the last emperor of the previous dynasty.

This huge world does not necessarily have to be controlled by Zhao Gui!

Of course, Wang Shijiu is not that cruel, and she will not rebel easily.

She just has the desire to get out of the backyard and lead the world.
