Chapter 72: Fame

Zhou Ke's family affairs arrived soon, ten miles of red makeup, and the black armor army opened the way, this scenery can be regarded as unique.

Although the second horse Chai Ji has a bad reputation, he also has a good skin, white face and red lips, and a jade tree in the wind. Although Zhou Ke's appearance is slightly inferior, he has a royal bearing, but he seems to suppress the little white-faced Chai Ji, although he is a strong woman and a weak man, he is barely a pair of jade, a match made in heaven.

Chai Ji's fox friends and dog friends were about to move and wanted to come to the cave room, but they were also frightened back by the palace grandmother who was bluffing.

Although the wedding seems to be a happy one, the details make people a little worried.

At this time, Zhou Yao was relieved and comforted Zhou Ying, "Don't worry, with her ability, isn't it easy to control such a little white face?" ”

Zhou Ying first breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled, "So now, our requirements have been lowered to such a low level?" ”

The two couldn't help but look at each other and laugh, laughing and laughing, and they became bored again.

This is a lifelong event related to a person's life, becoming a husband and wife, helping each other to grow old, and never giving up on life and death. Can ...... now

Zhou Ying poured a glass of wine, raised her glass and said, "Don't think about it, maybe the second sister can make the brother-in-law's prodigal son turn back, let's be less idle." Anyway, this is a wedding banquet, let's not keep a calm face, I don't know, I thought we were here to smash the field and rob the bride. ”

was explained by Zhou Ying, Zhou Yao also thought about it, raised her glass and smiled: "You're right, come, let's have a drink." ”

The two drank a few more glasses, but they didn't want to sit for a long time and left the table early.

The next day, when Zhou Ying woke up, someone came to report that the craftsman sent by Xu Hong had something to present.

Zhou Ying came to take a look and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The craftsman sent by Xu Hong really had some skills, and after trying twice according to Zhou Ying's layman's drawings, he made the Quyuan plough that Zhou Ying wanted. As for the future, there is no need for Zhou Ying to supervise it personally, and the steward will take it to Zhuangzi and let the tenants try it, and the effect is quite good.

Zhou Ying looked for an opportunity to dedicate it to the emperor, and the emperor saw that the effect was good, so he used the Quyuan plough in the spring silkworm ceremony, and the emperor personally advertised, and the Quyuan plough was quickly promoted. Because this curved plough is conducive to cultivation and is indeed a move for the benefit of the people, Zhou Ying not only in the court, but also in the people.

The emperor wanted to reward Zhou Ying, thinking that she had no shortage of gold and silver treasures, and her official position was not sealed, so he gave three counties as Zhou Ying's fief.

Zhou Ying received the order of gratitude.

She is not a lone eater, thinking that the craftsman was assigned by the eldest prince Zhou Lian and sent by Xu Hong, so she also mentioned Zhou Lian and Xu Hong when she thanked for the reward. The reward for the two of them is much more than Zhou Ying's, and Zhou Lian was transferred to the household department by the emperor to supervise the collection of food and grass for the army.

Xu Hong naturally followed, he wanted to help Zhou Ying, but he didn't want to accept her love.

For a while, Xu Hong couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to sigh secretly that the road was long and long, so he devoted himself to official business, only hoping to make contributions as soon as possible and reach a high position.

And Zhou Lian came to the door in person and thanked Zhou Ying, "I rely on the seventh sister to help me this time, this point of mind is not a respect." ”

Saying that, Zhou Lian clapped his hands and asked people to present a thank you gift, a thick stack of land deeds, and eight armor soldiers, "Seventh sister's action, I'm afraid it will be jealous." These eight armor soldiers are both parents dead, their family backgrounds are innocent, their skills are not bad, and the seventh sister is in and out, so they can protect you. ”

Zhou Ying is also a knowledgeable person, so he can naturally see that the indifferent aura of seeing blood on these eight armor soldiers is not like an ordinary guard, but more like a dead soldier. Zhou Ying hesitated a little and said: "This is carefully cultivated by the eldest brother, how can I win the favor of others." ”

Zhou Lian was picking out the deed from the box, handed it to Zhou Ying, and said with a smile: "It's just some armor, even if you have to use it again, how can it compare with my father's blue eyes?" Besides, even so, I still owe you a favor, if something happens in the future, just ask, don't be polite to me. ”

Seeing Zhou Lian's sincere gift, Zhou Ying also smiled and said, "Then I'm welcome." ”

As for how the second prince Zhou Yan, who was still standing still, how to deal with it, Zhou Ying didn't know. However, this one has only been in the Criminal Department for a few months, retried old cases, severely punished corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and cleared the style of the Beijing Division, and the means are not not subtle.

These have nothing to do with Zhou Ying, she only took advantage of the momentum of Quyuan plough's implementation, and took the opportunity to promote the method of drying salt.

The salt drying method is much more efficient than the original salt frying method. Because Tai'an Prefecture is her Tang Muyi, the salt drying method is implemented smoothly in Tai'an Prefecture, but it is not the case in other places. This is not the same as the implementation of the Quyuan plow, making a new plow, and changing a complete set of personnel and equipment for salt production, the cost is very different, and there are some entanglements of interests involved......

Zhou Ying also knew that this kind of thing could not be done overnight, so she only dedicated the salt drying method to the emperor, and let the court have a headache.

With these two livelihood measures, Zhou Ying became famous in Shilin, and took this opportunity to invite several erudite scholars to her academy as masters. There are two academies, one is called Qingzhu and the other is Rose, the former is a men's academy and the latter is a women's academy. Zhou Ying did not hesitate to spend money, the academy was built in a comfortable and quiet direction, and spent a lot of money to buy a lot of rare books, striving to make the academy have one of the best library buildings.

Zhou Ying also did not point to the academy to make money, lowered the shackles, provided books, pens, paper and grinding almost for free, and even opened scholarships, so that children from poor families could also have the opportunity to study and enroll. Of course, Zhou Ying opened a college, not a charity, if the grades are not up to standard, after three times, she will be persuaded to retire and never be hired.

After the academy opened, it was also crowded.

Among these people, there are those who are famous for their erudition, those who are interested in rare books that are no longer circulating in the market, and those who are bound by extremely low prices...... Of course, more people rushed for the royal status of the funder Zhou Ying.

Of course, Zhou Ying knows this. Those who don't have the right mind and want to take shortcuts will naturally brush it down in the exam more and more rigorously, if they are not brushed down, it means that they still have some skills, for this kind of person, Zhou Ying doesn't mind that they have some of their own careful thoughts.

Zhou Ying's career is also in full swing here, although some people question and denounce it, saying that as a woman, she shouldn't show her head like this, but with Zhou Ying's identity, there are really few people who dare to chew the root of her tongue in front of her.

Besides, everything Zhou Ying did was for the benefit of the country and the people, whether it was in the government and the opposition Shilin, or among the common people, Princess Ruyang's reputation was excellent. Of course, the most fundamental thing is that the emperor is on Zhou Ying's side, so she is not afraid of one or two doubts.

When Zhou Ying finally got free, two news came that I didn't know if it should be an accident or not.

First, the second princess Zhou Ke is happy, which is not an accident.

Although the second concubine Chai Ji is a playboy, he is definitely afraid of his father, with General Chai's orders and Zhou Ke's scheming methods from the deep palace, he really controlled Chai Ji for more than a year. Both of them are young, in good health, and with a strong newlywed, it is normal to be happy.

Second, Zhou Yao, who has been treated as a key person since Zhou Ke became a parent, finally couldn't resist the pressure and relented to get married.

Zhou Yao obediently prepared to get married, but it really surprised Zhou Ying.

When Zhou Ke was about to get married last year, Zhou Yao still remembered this kind of disgust from being arranged to do family affairs. Especially with Zhou Yao's dustless temperament, Zhou Ying really couldn't imagine Zhou Yao's compromise.

After inquiring, Zhou Ying learned that Zhou Yao had a crush on Yuan Jun, last year's new champion.

The princess is worthy of the champion.

To be honest, Zhou Ying's mood is really not good.

Because of the widely circulated stories of Chen Shimei and other poor horses, Zhou Ying really couldn't rest assured about this new champion.

Of course, Yuan Jun can be the top student in the examination, needless to say, he is talented. Yuan Jun was born in a poor family, only his father was still in the family, relying on a few acres of thin fields, he came out with such a champion, and he was also photographed by the princess, and he was about to soar, which was really green smoke on the ancestral tomb.

Regarding Yuan Jun's name, Zhou Ying has also heard of it this year.

Although this Yuan Jun was born poor, he was also a high-minded and arrogant master. Because there is too little entanglement, there is no money to live in the inn, so he borrowed to live in the temple, but he was unexpectedly bumped into by a certain official family member who entered the incense, and was humiliated as a poor and sour person who begged for food, so that he would not come to defile the pure land of Buddhism.

Yuan Jun didn't say anything to fight, so he directly made a poem, using flowers as a metaphor for people, satirizing his waist and limbs, and portraying the ugliness of flattery to superiors and arrogance to subordinates. This inner family member was "sick" when he went back, so it did not block the impeachment of Yushitai. Although the husband of this inner family did not lose his official position and was demoted, he was also disgraced for a while, which made Yuan Jun famous.

After Yuan Jun became famous, some people were not convinced by his talent, and some people who claimed to be righteous came to fight from time to time, but Yuan Jun refused all of them.

Therefore, some people say that Yuan Jun's talent is not enough, and the good poems of that day are just a big luck, maybe they still copied it, and some people scold him for being a turtle with a shrunken head, and a bad thing that has not been planted...... Yuan Jun ignored all of these and just studied behind closed doors. And when everyone gradually forgot about Yuan Jun, Yuan Jun was named on the gold list again, topped the list, and slapped those people in the face in the most irrefutable way.

If Zhou Yao didn't fall in love with Yuan Jun, Zhou Ying could even be called appreciative of what Yuan Jun did. But in the case that Yuan Jun might become her brother-in-law, that idea of appreciation suddenly disappeared, and all his actions became suspicious.

However, calm down and think about it, Yuan Jun's arrogant personality may really be right about Zhou Yao's temper.

This time, Zhou Yao loosened his mouth and decided to marry, maybe it was not that he couldn't bear it and found someone to prevaricate and fool him, but he really fell in love with Yuan Jun.

Zhou Ying was busy visiting, but after going to Zhou Yao's princess's mansion, the third princess, who didn't like to go out, was not at home. Zhou Ying was stunned, even more worried in her heart, and even more determined to wait, because she often came, Zhou Ying was not polite, and directly ordered: "Put on the pot of tea, and a few plates of snacks, I have nothing to do today, just spend a while more time in the house." ”

The palace maid poured tea and said with a smile: "What do you tell the Seventh Princess, as soon as you enter the door, I will let people urge you to go to the snack." ”

Zhou Ying smiled: "Sure enough, she is the palace maid of the third sister, so clever." ”

The palace maid smiled and agreed, and retreated.

Zhou Ying waited until the tea was so light that she couldn't taste good, and the dim sum was more than half down, and Zhou Yao came back.

Seeing Zhou Yao's light steps and slightly shining eyes, Zhou Ying secretly said in her heart that it was not good, did she not need to ask again, Zhou Yao just fell in love with Yuan Jun, this girl's appearance of Huaichun, I am afraid that she has already fallen into it.

Zhou Ying secretly blamed herself for neglecting Zhou Yao too much, and said tentatively: "Look at my sister's happy appearance, what kind of happy event has you encountered?" ”

Zhou Yao took off his cloak and glanced at Zhou Ying with a smile, "Come on, you still pretend to be with me, isn't it just to come to the door to ask the teacher?" ”

Listening to this familiar tone, Zhou Ying suddenly knew that Zhou Yao must not have been carried away by the love of her children and lost her mind. Zhou Yao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you know that I am the one who asks the guilt of the Xingshi, why don't you recruit it from the truth?" My sister hid it from me so hard. ”

Zhou Yao cleaned his hands under the service of the palace maid and quipped, "Aren't you busy with your big business?" I don't dare to bother with a little thing. Zhou Yao sighed again, "If this hadn't happened today, I'm afraid you wouldn't have forgotten where the door of my house opened." ”

The two joked, Zhou Yao smeared the balsam again, waved off the subordinate, and then said, "Are you worried about my family?" ”

Zhou Ying nodded, "What the hell is going on?" Why so suddenly? What is this Yuan Jun's character, can you get it accurately? ”

Zhou Yao sat next to Zhou Ying and took a sip of tea, "It's not sudden." I've known Yuan Jun for more than a year, and when he made the satirical poem that made him famous, I watched from the sidelines, and I got acquainted with him. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Ying couldn't help but be suspicious, and hesitated: "Is it such a coincidence?" ”
