Chapter 12 The desire to be still is unstoppable
After the next dynasty, as soon as Yu Ruyan returned to the side hall, she saw that Dye Chun had already brought the newly made crown dress. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Yu Ruyan was crowned as a first-class university scholar, and enjoyed the honor of earl, according to the regulations of Chen Guo's crown dress, Yu Ruyan can be used in Bahan. In addition, Yu Ruyan is the only female official, and Zhao Wenzheng ordered someone to customize a women's crown dress for her, with gold threads and pearls to show her identity.
"Scholar, the emperor just sent an edict to let you have a good rest, and go to the Dongnuan Pavilion to discuss matters at the end of the afternoon." Dye spring road.
"Okay, I got it."
Yu Ruyan suddenly heard the word "emperor", and the corners of her mouth finally hooked up a smile, Zheng'er really ascended the throne and became the emperor. I hope that in the future, the mountains and rivers will be quiet.
The afternoon sun is always lazy, and after Yu Ruyan woke up from a nap, it was already halfway through.
Dye Chun brought the crown dress, and the palace maids behind him held refreshments, and said with a light smile: "The scholar, you are awake, the slave maid is waiting for the scholar to freshen up." ”
Yu Ruyan nodded.
After Dye Chun freshened up, Yu Ruyan looked in the mirror, Dye Chun chuckled lightly, and said, "The university scholar is so beautiful." After speaking, Dye Chun waved his hand to the palace maids behind him, and the four little palace maids handed them to Yu Ruyan with four plates of refreshments.
"Taifu, this is the emperor himself." Ran Chun put the refreshments on the table, put a cup of Tieguanyin, and said, "The emperor said, I remember that Taifu used to like to drink Tieguanyin, and I don't know if the taste has changed in the past few years." ”
Yu Ruyan smiled: "No, I always like it." ”
Ran Chun handed the tea to Yu Ruyan, and then said: "The emperor said that the weather is a little hot, so he asked the imperial dining room to make mung bean cake, lotus seed cake, lotus leaf cake, and pea yellow for the scholars." ”
"The emperor is really bothered." Yu Ruyan was moved in her heart.
After simply finishing the refreshments, it was almost the end of the hour, Yu Ruyan cleaned up and went to the East Warm Pavilion.
"Wechen see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Yu Ruyan bowed and bowed.
Zhao Wenzheng stood up with a smile and said, "Taifu doesn't have to be polite, get up quickly." ”
Yu Ruyan got up and saluted the others with her fists: "Xia Guan has seen the prince, the generalissimo, and the right prime minister." ”
"Taifu has been too tired lately, so I still need to rest more." Zhao Xuanfang said with a smile.
Yu Ruyan saluted and said, "Thank you prince, the lower officials will pay attention." ”
Zhao Wenzheng said: "Your mansion, I have ordered the people of the Ministry of Industry to renovate it, but I am afraid that the university scholars will have to be wronged in the palace for a period of time. ”
Yang Chuting said suddenly: "Although the Taifu is a female dependent, it is still unreasonable to live in the palace. Why don't you live in the house just before the construction of the university scholar's house is completed? ”
"I'm afraid this is inappropriate, how can the lower officials disturb the generalissimo's mansion?" Yu Ruyan immediately refused.
Yang Chuting said with a smile: "It's okay, my house is still empty, not to mention that Neiko also misses Taifu, and he kept nagging me yesterday, when will he take Taifu to live in the house for a few days." ”
Yu Ruyan still refused: "Thank you for the kindness of the generalissimo and Mrs. Zun, but it is still inconvenient for the lower officials to disturb." ”
Zhao Wenzheng unexpectedly agreed: "I think that it is not impossible for a scholar to live in Marshal Yang's mansion for the time being. I knew that the scholar and Mrs. Yang were old friends, so I wronged the scholar for a few days, and after a month, the scholar's mansion would definitely be renovated. ”
Yu Ruyan was a little strange, how could Zhao Wenzheng agree, could it be that they had already discussed it? Let me live in Yang Chuting's house, because I and Mrs. Yang are old friends, is there any other reason? In this case, it is better to count and stay for a few days.
Yu Ruyan responded and said: "Then thank you Marshal Yang and Mrs. Zun for their kindness." ”
Only then did Zhao Wenzheng get to the point, saying: "I summoned the secretaries this time, in addition to bothering the secretaries to clean up the affairs of the traitorous party, I also have to discuss the formation of the cabinet. The four of them are all auxiliary ministers appointed by me, cabinet veterans, and assist me in governing the Chen country, and now that the royal family has experienced this war, the Chen country is also in ruins, what good strategies do you have? ”
Xiao Feiqing said: "The minister thinks that in terms of the governance of officials, corruption should be strictly controlled......
After an afternoon of discussion, Zhao Wenzheng approved Xiao Feiqing's measures on the governance of officials, and asked him to draw up in detail the terms of the evaluation and governance of officials, and Xiao Feiqing also proposed the first plan of the tax reduction and exemption system after disasters in various places. Yang Chuting put forward a new proposal on the management system in the army, dividing the management of soldiers according to their ranks, and assigning responsibility to individuals. Yu Ruyan creatively proposed that Chen Guo could set up a women's school to recruit women, and women with excellent character and learning could also enter the palace or become officials in the court, which was greatly appreciated by Zhao Wenzheng.
By the time the discussion was over, it was getting dark outside.
Zhao Wenzheng sent the imperial meal, everyone simply ate some, and the ministers all returned to their mansions.
"Scholar, I have something to say to you." After Zhao Wenzheng saw that everyone had dispersed, he said to Yu Ruyan.
Yu Ruyan said: "In fact, in the afternoon, the emperor agreed with the minister to go to Yang's mansion to live, and the minister knew that the emperor must have some arrangements. ”
Zhao Wenzheng sighed and took out something wrapped in a cloth from the small box next to him. After opening it, he asked Yu Ruyan: "Scholar, do you remember this?" ”
Yu Ruyan recognized it at a glance: "Isn't this the black jade on the assassin who entered the palace that day?" ”
Zhao Wenzheng said: "That's right, although the assassin is dead, I have always been uneasy. At first, I always thought that this was sent by the party, but later, when I was sorting out the relics of the former emperor the day before yesterday, I found this. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Wenzheng took out another book similar to a notebook and handed it to Yu Ruyan. Yu Ruyan opened it according to the marked position, and the handwriting was obviously written by Emperor Chen Wendi himself. On the above page, it is written that the State of Chu had sent a small worker to the State of Chen many years ago, codenamed "Spirit Cicada", to lurk in the State of Chen, intending to profit for the State of Chu. Emperor Wen has always wanted to find this person, but he has never found it.
Yu Ruyan was a little puzzled: "Could it be that this assassination is related to this fine work called the spirit cicada?" ”
Zhao Wenzheng sighed and said, "I also hope that I am suspicious, but scholar, you take a closer look at the shape of that piece of black jade." ”
Yu Ruyan looked at it, the black jade was oval, and there was a shallow seal on it, Zhao Wenzheng asked: "Scholar, don't you think this shape is very similar to the wings of a cicada?" ”
"It's very similar." Yu Ruyan said, "Your Majesty, do you want to find out this fine work?" ”
Zhao Wenzheng frowned, his fingers lightly knocked on the table, and said, "This person must be found out!" But we don't know if this assassination is really related to the cicada, after all, the black jade fragment cannot be used as evidence. If it is true, this person has been lurking in my Chen Kingdom, and may even be above the royal court, which has to worry me. What's more, the first emperor has known about this person for a long time, but he has never caught it, which shows how deep this person is lurking. ”
Yu Ruyan nodded and said: "Now it is normal for countries to send hostages and send small works to each other, but this person intends to subvert our Chen State and assassinate the emperor, then we must find him." ”
Zhao Wenzheng stroked his forehead and said, "That's why I agreed to let you live in Marshal Yang's mansion." I plan to hand over this matter to you, Marshal Yang and Xiao Feiqing to investigate, you have a lot of inconvenience in the palace, it is more convenient to leave the palace. But the University Scholar's Mansion has not been repaired yet, Xiao Feiqing has not yet married, how inconvenient it is for you to live with him, think about it, Yang Mansion is the best choice. In addition, you are familiar with Mrs. Yang, so it makes sense. ”
"I see, the emperor is thoughtful." Yu Ruyan asked, "...... on the side of Prince Nazhong?"
Zhao Wenzheng waved his hand and said: "You don't need to let Uncle Huang know about this matter, he is old, although he is an auxiliary minister, it is better to cause him less trouble, and let him be the abbot of the court and the overall situation." ”
Yu Ruyan said: "The minister understands. ”
Zhao Wenzheng said: "I also know that this meticulous work is very deep, and it is not an overnight thing to find out. What you have to do now is to re-improve Chen Guo's various systems, especially your proposal for women's enrollment, which I appreciate very much. ”
"Yes, I obey."
Walking out of the Dongnuan Pavilion, Yu Ruyan sighed heavily, it was really a tree that wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop.
The next morning, discussions continued until the afternoon on the formulation of various new policies. Yu Ruyan's proposal for women's enrollment was still opposed by many old Chen clan relatives, and under expediency, Yu Ruyan had no choice but to propose that the imperial court fund the establishment of compulsory schools in the people, and the enrollment of students was not limited to children who could afford to go to school before. Now that the compulsory school has been held, children from difficult families can also be enrolled in school, but the ministers have no more objections.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Dye Chun packed his bags and followed Yu Ruyan out of the palace: "Scholar, the emperor allowed me to leave the palace to serve scholars." ”
At this time, in front of the palace gate, Yang Chuting had already prepared the carriage: "Scholar, get on the bus, Neiko has been waiting for a long time." ”
In front of Yang's house, Mrs. Yang He Luoyi took a pair of twin daughters and accompanied her family to greet her outside the door.
Seeing Yu Ruyan get down from the carriage, He Luoyi stepped forward happily and said, "The concubine has seen a scholar. ”
Yu Ruyan stepped up, helped He Luoyi up, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yang doesn't have to be polite, let's still be sisters like before." ”
"It's been a long time since I've seen Sister Yu, and I really miss it so much." With tears in the corners of his eyes, He Luoyi said, "You left like that three years ago, and you didn't tell us where you went." Fortunately, I'm back now, and I'm not allowed to leave this time. ”
Yu Ruyan's nose was also sour, and she said, "Mrs. Yang, since I left last time, I have been thinking about you. ”
"There's been no news of that." He Luoyi said with some disgust, "Mu Chen, Mu Yu, I haven't seen the university scholar yet." ”
Yang Chuting's pair of dragon and phoenix fetal daughters, who are now six years old, bowed respectfully after seeing Yu Ruyan: "I have seen Yu University's scholar." ”
Yu Ruyan squatted down, helped the two of them up and said with a smile: "Muchen Muyu, you have grown so big, last time I left, you didn't even speak well." ”
Yang Chuting said: "It's not early, let's go in and talk about it." ”
He Luoyi hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "That's right, what are you doing standing outside, come in." ”
Yang Chuting was carrying a pair of children, and He Luoyi pulled Yu Ruyan and said as he walked to the house: "What I prepared today are all your favorite side dishes, eat more in a while." ”
