Section 454 Three bold demands

Since Empress Dowager Xuan let her say, Bai Hui naturally wanted to make it clear.

"There are three things I want to say. First, it's true that my brother is the god of war, but he can't be someone who only knows the military camp and doesn't know how to have a family. Therefore, I understand the ideas of what the Queen Mother did, but I can't accept the way. ”

Bai Hui didn't care, and made it clear that he was talking.

Empress Dowager Xuan nodded: "Okay, you can handle this matter yourself." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie."

"Don't talk nonsense, get down to business."

"Queen Mother, women are officials, this matter is very important, at present, there are a few women in the Qin State who are military attachΓ©s, but there is no civil official, and there are at least 450,000 literate women in Daqin......"

"What?" Empress Dowager Xuan didn't expect that there would be such a huge population, and she was surprised.

Bai Hui hurriedly explained: "Queen Mother, what the minister said is just literacy. If you know 300 words, you are literate. Because the initial education of children is the mother, in the past few years, all the women of the military family in the Qin State have learned some words from each other, which is used to teach children to read and write at the beginning. ”

Empress Dowager Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing 300 words is considered literate. But there's still a long way to go for this thing to be truly talented.

Knowing three hundred words, according to later generations, this is semi-literate. Bai Hui's literacy is only the ability to write his own name and know the words of key everyday objects. For example, yarn, hemp, sheep, oil, salt, and so on. Able to add and subtract simply, understand basic farming knowledge.

Bai Hui continued: "Queen Mother, just take this opportunity to put forward your thoughts. It is our Great Qin, if we carefully select and then invest manpower and material resources to teach, there will be at least 10,000 talented women in the Qin State. ”

"Qin State is so short of people?"

"Queen Mother, the gap of officials in the Qin State is already reaching the point where it is impossible to carry out the decree."

"Okay, you can consider a woman as an official, this palace will consider it, tell me about your third thing?"

Bai Hui knew in his heart that he was actually not ready, and he also used the Empress Dowager Xuan to intervene in his family affairs, and when it came to the matter of the woman being an official, the Empress Dowager Xuan promised to consider it, which was considered a success.

"Queen Mother, this third ......" Bai Hui pulled a long note, and this request made Bai Hui feel a little pressure.

Who would have thought, but Empress Dowager Xuan guessed it.

Empress Dowager Xuan said: "The third request you want to mention is nothing more than to let the palace listen to you after you go to sea." ”

"Don't dare, what the minister means is that after going to sea, please listen to the advice of the Queen Mother, after all, the Queen Mother has lived inland for a long time and knows nothing about overseas."

Empress Dowager Xuan said in her heart, have you ever been to sea in Baihui?

Think about it, talk about it.

Empress Dowager Xuan still said: "Okay, according to you, this palace promises you that after going to sea, most of the big and small matters will be based on your opinion." Easily will not interfere in your business. ”

"Empress Dowager Xie understands."

Be considerate, and it won't work if you don't understand.

Empress Dowager Xuan thought that Bai Hui wanted to find a chance to talk to herself about who had the final say after going to sea, and it had been a long time, Bai Hui had been going around and around, and finally found an opportunity.

Is it because you are in charge of it too much?

Are these children grown up enough to really get in the way?

Maybe going to sea is an opportunity to really see how talented Bai Hui is.

"Ganru, this palace is wrong. But you also have to be considerate of this palace, this palace doesn't want my Great Qin God of War to be stumped by the personal feelings of my children, at this time, come to think of it, the God of War is Daqin's, and Bai Qi is yours. There is also high-quality cotton sent by the Hetao in the Xianyang Palace, and the palace will give half of it to your house. ”

Empress Dowager Xuan is apologizing.

Ganru didn't know how to deal with it.

Bai Qi, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating his mind, knelt down and bowed forward at this time, and said loudly: "Thank you Empress Dowager." ”

Gan Ru was startled by Bai Qi's sudden roar.

didn't wait for Gan Ru to come back to his senses, but Bai Hui also said with a grinning face: "Queen Mother, it's better to send the high-grade camel hair from the Wu family to Xianyang, and also give one stone to our family." ”

"Okay." Empress Dowager Xuan agreed and patted Bai Hui on the head.

Bai Hui climbed up the pole and took another step, and even Bai Qi was startled by this sentence.

I only heard Bai Hui say: "I heard the medical officer of Xianyang Palace say that the queen is happy, it seems to be a girl?" ”

Bai Qi was stunned.

As a foreign minister, he was actually discussing the queen's happy things, and this Bai Hui was too bold.

Empress Dowager Xuan understood instantly, and as soon as Bai Hui finished speaking, Empress Dowager Xuan said: "Then it's decided, if it's really a girl, fourteen years later, let her serve tea and call me the Great Qin God of War father." ”

Bai Qi was stunned.

Ganru was stunned.

But Bai Hui said: "Queen Mother, don't be too ruthless with this bride price." ”

"It's not ruthless, tens of billions of money, thousands of miles of land, and millions of slaves. How is it? ”

Tens of billions of money......

Gan Ruhua fainted, she understood, Bai Hui was talking about a family affair for her son, and turned Ye Yanghou's soon-to-be-born daughter, that is, Daqin's eldest daughter, into her daughter-in-law.

But immediately after, the bride price that Empress Dowager Xuan asked for almost scared her to death.

Bai Qi is not nervous, because Bai Hui is present in the affairs of the family, and besides, Bai Qi has no concept of tens of billions of money.

Bai Hui closed his mouth with a smile: "The Queen Mother wants too little, just like that, it's drizzling." ”

"Then you add some points?"

"Ten times more. But to have an arbitrary power, not everything, but some individuals, some things, can only be arbitrary. ”

"Okay, wait until you add this tenfold." Empress Dowager Xuan raised her hand and gently high-fived Bai Hui.

Ten times.

Hundreds of billions of money, thousands of miles of land, and tens of millions of slaves!!

Bai Qi's face changed, he understood the words between Bai Hui and the Queen Mother, fourteen years, adding these numbers to the Qin State, doesn't it mean that he will dominate the world?

"Queen Mother, the eighth day of the new year is a good day, set off."

"These little things, you are in charge."

On the same day, the Queen Mother personally set up a banquet to entertain Gan Ru and Bai Qi's sister Bai Ziyi.

And King Qin and Bai Qi, Bai Hui, Wei Ran and others gathered around a hot pot to drink wine and chat.

King Qin personally poured Bai Hui a glass of wine: "You are amazing, the first person who dares to say no to our old lady." You know, don't say that it is someone else in the palace, that is, Ye Yang speaks on weekdays, you have to think about it first, if you say it, does the Queen Mother like to listen to it. ”

"Mighty." Wei Ran took an empty cup and poured wine for Bai Hui: "I respect you for this cup, I am also a big figure in the Qin Kingdom, but in front of my sister, I don't dare to speak loudly, I want to drink this cup." ”

Bai Qi also poured a cup and put it in front of Bai Hui.

Everyone looked at Bai Qi, waiting for Bai Qi's words, and Bai Qi said lightly: "Make up the number, three cups are good." ”

King Qin and Wei Ran were stunned for a moment, and then turned to laugh.
