Chapter 300: The Parenting of the Little Prince
Chen Li helped many poor people, and there was not much left of ten taels of silver.
The little prince had almost repaired the bridge, and the ten taels of silver had already been spent, and he had added an additional five taels of silver.
The two scrambled to ask who had won.
Xiao Mingyue smiled and said nothing, but asked Cai Wei to give them a wolf pen.
"Is this the reward? Why do we have both, don't we say we have to compete? The little prince asked, tilting his little head.
"Chang'er, do you just want to compete like that? Do you do good deeds just to show others? Xiao Mingyue asked the little prince in turn.
The little prince hurriedly shook his head, "No." "
Xiao Mingyue asked Chen Li again, "What about you?" "
Chen Li also shook his head, "Me is not either." "
Xiao Mingyue looked at the two of them and nodded with satisfaction, "That's very good." Li'er, it's good for you to take two taels of silver to help the poor, but ten taels of silver is far from enough, even if it is 100,000 taels, it is not enough to give a basket of fish to people, it is better to hand over to people to fish! Otherwise, even if you have mountains of gold and silver, you can't save all the poor people in this world, understand? "
After hearing this, Chen Xian suddenly realized, and nodded again and again, "The student knows!"
Xiao Mingyue said to the little prince again, "Chang'er, it's very good for you to repair the bridge and repair the road, and building a bridge has invisibly helped many people, which is a matter of merit, but it doesn't take ten taels of silver to repair the bridge, but you added five taels of silver yourself, which is bluffed." It's because you're not good at observing, if you become the emperor in the future, and you can't see that this minister has made false accounts, then what can you do?!"
The little prince lowered his head and replied, "I know!"
The three of them then returned to the palace, and Xiao Mingyue had both rewards and advice to the two of them.
After Xiao Mingyue and Cai Wei returned to Mingyue Tower, Cai Wei couldn't help but ask Xiao Mingyue, "The county lord, the little prince and Li'er have done great things, why should the county lord blame them a little?" "
"In order not to make the two of them complacent, after all, one of them will be an emperor and the other will be a general in the future! You can't think about things enough!" Xiao Mingyue told Cai Wei.
Cai Wei nodded in agreement.
At night, Xiao Mingyue thought about whether what she saw in the market was amber and tea, and she couldn't figure it out.
Thinking that if it was really them, he would not be able to bring the two into the palace in a grand manner now.
If not, where will Amber take Khat with her?
And Zhen Miaoxia couldn't help frowning when she learned that Xiao Mingyue took the little prince out of the palace to the countryside to see the people doing farm work and paving the way for the small bridge, "What kind of medicine is sold in this Xiao Mingyue's gourd!" Let my son toss like this! What did you do with me? "
The little prince shook his head and retorted, "Mother, you shouldn't be angry, the county lord teacher has taught us a lot of truths!" Does Mother know when the people are the happiest? "
Zhen Miaoxia felt that the little prince's question was very strange, "Mother is not those flat-headed people outside, how will Mother know!"
The little prince sighed and said to Zhen Miaoxia, "Then I'll tell my mother, well-fed and clothed warm children and grandchildren have books to read!" It's the happiest moment for the people! They all have smiles on their faces, but their mothers live better than them and eat well, but they are still frowning every day, so it is better for their mothers to go farming! That way my mother can always smile!"
Zhen Miaoxia heard that her son was going to let her go farming, so she couldn't bear her temper, "Nonsense! Mother is a noble concubine, how can she go to farming! "
"But everyone is the same! People are not supposed to be rich and low!" The little prince continued to say to Zhen Miaoxia.
"This is also what Xiao Mingyue taught you?!"
"No, that's what my father said!"
"Okay, okay, your father is the king of a country, but if you are a prince, you will be a prince, and you will be the future emperor of Chen Guo in the future, don't keep thinking about working with the people, you must have the posture of a prince, don't make people laugh!" Zhen Miaoxia repeatedly told the little prince.
The little prince pouted, wanting to refute but thinking that Xiao Mingyue wanted him to be filial to his mother, and if he could endure everything, he should not be disobedient.
"Oh, the boy knows, the child is tired!" After saying that, he ran back to his room.
Zhen Miaoxia saw that her child was not close to her now, only close to Xiao Mingyue, and regarded everything Xiao Mingyue said as a golden rule, and she felt angry and panicked when she imagined it, but she could only sulk alone.
After a long time, it was inevitable that the qi and blood were stagnant, and after calling the imperial doctor, he could only prescribe some medicine to invigorate the blood and smooth the qi, but Zhen Miaoxia was narrow-minded, and the disease of angina pectoris was falling.
Even if Xiao Mingyue never threatened her, Chen Xian never found fault with her, she still picked up her anger.
Even Erxi often comforts her to be relieved, the little prince will always be the prince in the future, and this good day is still to come!
Chen Xian heard that Xiao Mingyue took Chang'er and Li'er to the countryside and the bazaar, and taught the two of them by word and deed, and the two of them also had a lot of experience, needless to say, they admired Xiao Mingyue, so they intended to ask Xiao Mingyue to write questions for this year's imperial examination and serve as one of the chief examiners.
Xiao Mingyue refused at first, after all, he was just the county lord in name, although he was deeply loved by the people, but this matter of asking questions for the imperial examination was a bit inappropriate to let himself do it. But Chen Xian insisted on doing so.
Although there were individual opposition from the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, more than eighty percent of the people agreed with it.
With Xiao Mingyue's knowledge, insight, integrity, and mind, it is more than enough to serve as an examiner.
After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Mingyue had no choice but to agree, but she was willing to work with several other examiners to solve the question.
"Yue'er, the widow believes in your knowledge, and he will definitely be able to select the most suitable talent for my Chen Guo!" Chen Xian is full of trust and expectation for Xiao Mingyue.
"Thanks to Your Majesty's love, Mingyue is willing to give it a try and select outstanding talents for Chen Guo!" Xiao Mingyue said with a smile.
Chen Xian nodded with satisfaction and took Xiao Mingyue's hands, "Thanks to you by your side in the past few years, a widow really can't live without you!" The widow thinks ......"
Xiao Mingyue didn't want Chen Xian to finish speaking, so she hurriedly took over the conversation, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty has won the award, and it is also Mingyue's honor to be able to help Your Majesty, in addition, the little prince is smart and studious, which is the blessing of His Majesty and the blessing of the world, which is also what His Majesty should be happy about!"
Chen Xian nodded, he still liked his only son very much, but because of Zhen Miaoxia, he didn't want to be crowned prince early.
Xiao Mingyue knew what Chen Xian was thinking, but she felt that it was enough for Chen Xian to like Chang'er, after all, he was this one son, no matter what he wanted to do in the future, as long as he did what a prince should do, he would be the future prince.
"That's fine, the crown prince was erected too early, and it is also a constraint on Chang'er, and he will be proud! Until then, it's better to let him be diligent," Xiao Mingyue said to Chen Xian.
Chen Xian nodded, "This is also the meaning of widowhood!"
