Chapter 282: Years Ago
(There was one thing that I didn't think I needed to thank much, so I omitted it, so the previous chapter was revised at the end.) Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info)
Yun Xi was also in the Chengqian Palace in Baoqin at night according to the regulations set today, so he came to the Chengqian Palace again at night. Wen Yao's birthday had already passed at noon, and Yun Xi was busy for a long time in the afternoon, and he was in no mood to continue to coax the child, so he came to Chengqian Palace, and said a few words with Wen Yao with a kind face, and then collapsed on the Luohan bed. Baoqin, who had the eyesight, also hurriedly took Wen Yao down.
After that, he held the qin and served Yunxi. Yun Xi spread it out and asked, "What does Xi Yao say?" ”
Yun Xi is used to calling people by their names directly, especially in the harem, and never uses other pronouns except for formal occasions, so that the people around him are not very comfortable. However, since Yun Xi is the person in charge, then they can only adapt slowly, and no one dares to talk to Yun Xi about disagreement with the provisions of the "Daming Huidian".
The movement of holding the qin stopped slightly, and then replied: "Yesterday, the queen asked Wen Yao to come over and speak, and today she sent someone over to deliver something." ”
Yun Xi said: "Well, Xiyao is becoming more and more like a queen, and she remembers such things and arranges them carefully, which is good." "In ancient times, when the elders were still there, they didn't give the juniors a birthday, unless it was a whole birthday or a crowned or crowned birthday. And Xiyao still remembered Wen Yao's birthday and sent someone to give a reward, so Yunxi praised her.
But Baoqin muttered in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it.
Baoqin arranged for the palace maid to come in and play gentle music for Yunxi to soothe Yunxi's mood. While listening to the song, Yun Xi remembered something again, and asked, "What did you say when you took Wen Yao to meet your mother's family today?" ”
The violinist trembled slightly, and his expression changed slightly, but Yun Xi didn't see it when he turned sideways.
Baoqin said: "What else can I say, it's just to let them meet Wen Yao, and then say that the children are so old." And then he chattered about homely things, and that's it. ”
The reality is different. Although Baoqin is not ready to seek the position of Xiyao's queen, this is too difficult, and the Xiyao sisters need to be killed at the same time, so it is not considered; But for the sake of her son, she also wants to make some preparations outside the palace.
She asked her father and eldest brother to make more friends with big people, and also strive to fight a few battles in a place where there is no big risk to be promoted; also strive to let the younger brother enter the country to study, so that he can be a civil official in the future. I can't say that she still has to blow the pillow wind with Yun Xi.
However, none of this can be said to Yun Xi, some are taboo, so Bao Qin casually said that it was a family routine, and he was also testing whether Yun Xi knew something.
Yun Xi didn't have the spare time to pay attention to what his concubines said when they saw their mother's family, and the palace was a forbidden area for Jinyiwei that Yun Xi demarcated, so Yun Xi didn't know what Baoqin said to his family at this time.
He didn't have any doubts when he heard Baoqin's words, and it passed like this.
==========================================================
Wen Yao's birthday is the first day of the lunar month, and this is the lunar month. It's okay in Layue City, but there's nothing going on in the countryside, and everyone is preparing for the New Year.
The atmosphere of the New Year in the city after the fifteenth day of the lunar month gradually became stronger, and the people were no longer conscripted to serve in the conscription, and all the craftsmen were on vacation, and even the government tried to push things back, basically until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Even the central court tried to put things off until the end of the year. Yun Xi actually doesn't like this, but he can't go against human nature, and everyone is lazy at this time of the year, and he is usually more diligent.
After discussing with the auxiliary officials, Yun Xi officially issued a new charter on the 11th day of the lunar month: from this year onwards, every year from the 23rd day of the lunar month to the 15th day of the first lunar month is the day of rest, the yamen is sealed, and those who want to go back to their hometown can also go back to their hometown for the New Year, but they must ensure that they come back on the 15th of the first lunar month.
It was also announced that from the first year of the establishment of the business, the fifth, fifteenth, and twenty-fifth days of the first month from February to November every year will be taken on three days off, which is called the ten-day holiday; At the same time, on the basis of the original winter solstice holiday, Chunlong, Qingming, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Chongyang have been added as official holiday festivals, each with one day off.
Yun Xi also announced: from the first year of Jianye, his birthday is taken from the people of the world to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and it is named the same birthday festival, and hundreds of officials take a day off; Emperor Taizu's birthday is still Wanshou Day, and hundreds of officials are still resting.
Yun Hee's series of orders for a holiday caused cheers from the hundred officials. Especially the officials in the capital, the emperor is in the capital, and it is not okay to be as lazy as the local officials. Someone calculated that the official holidays of the Ming Dynasty were increased from three days to fifty-seven or fifty-eight days, although it was still not as good as the Song Dynasty, but it was already more than the Tang Dynasty, which made the officials very happy.
And even the most rigid Confucian children have nothing to advise. Although in ancient times there was no such thing as 'better rest makes better work', but traditionally, it was normal to give officials a day off, in the Han Dynasty, officials were allowed to take one day off every five days, and in the Song Dynasty, officials actually had a ninety-eight days of leave.
Yun Xi's increase in vacation is actually in line with tradition, so no one will admonish him. And who would dare to admonish such a thing, and not be drowned by the spit stars of hundreds of officials? Even people who want to show their love for their work dare not take such an excerpt.
The Qianqing Palace is also getting less and less day by day, Yun Xi can finish the excerpt in less than half a day every day, and then he can chat with the newly established Tongshi people, compete with each other, enhance feelings, and Yun Xi also let himself see that although they are all talents, but who is suitable for what to do.
On the 22nd day of the lunar month, in order to express his attention, Yun Xi successively came to the Royal Academy and the Yuxi Palace, where the three princesses such as Yunlan and several county lords were studying, and told the gentlemen and students: "From tomorrow, the gentlemen will also have a holiday, and the prince/prince/princess/county lord will return to the house to study by themselves." ”
The royal children of the Royal Academy are very happy: they can finally stop going to school for a while! Even Gao Xu, who loves military strategy classes and martial arts classes, likes to take a few days off.
When Yun Xi announced this matter at the Royal Academy, he happened to see Gao Xu, and asked casually: "Second brother, why hasn't your third brother (Zhu Gaosui) come to the capital to study?" ”
Gao Xu said: "Brother Huang, my mother and concubine love my third brother the most, so she left the third brother in Beiping for the New Year. After the dragon raised his head, he came to the capital. ”
When Yun Xi came to Yuxi Palace again to talk about this matter, Yang Shiqi's reaction was slightly different. He said: "Your Majesty, the minister had the permission of His Majesty before, and he had to return to his hometown to pick up his mother to come to Beijing during the January holiday. ”
Seeing it, the famous ministers in history are conscious, no wonder they can become famous ministers in history, Yun Xi sighed. However, Yun Xi also felt that his three younger sisters had stayed too long and should have taken a few more days of classes, but he couldn't break the rules for Yang Shiqi, so Yun Xi still said: "This can't be done, how can I be because you violated the rules?" You'd better go back and rest. ”
"However," Yun Xi said, "Yang Qing can come to duty during the Chinese New Year, and you can come to teach them by the way when you are on duty." "Even if all the staff are on vacation, but in order to prevent emergencies, every yamen has to keep people on duty, and urgent matters are immediately reported to Yun Xi.
Yang Shiqi listened to Yun Xi's words, felt at ease, saluted and then packed up his things and went home. But the eldest sister was dissatisfied, Yun Zhi pouted for a few days, and finally saw that Yun Xi didn't react, so she could only stop.
Since the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Yun Xi has also entered a state of vacation, but it may be that God does not want Yun Xi to rest like this, and on the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, an urgent matter was reported to Yun Xi here.
