Chapter 177: The princess should also be a gentleman
Liaodong's decision to recruit a woman as a gentleman once again set off a huge wave, but fortunately, everyone in Liaodong is used to Wei Shuo's tossing character, but no one behaves too intensely, but Wei Shuo's ears are always noisy.
As most people thought, as long as Wei Shuo made up his mind, no one else could change his decision.
Soon the county guard issued an announcement to recruit some women to serve in the school in Liaodong and Xuansu counties. The female gentlemen recruited this time are mainly to enrich the township and county schools.
Considering the lack of cultural and educational prosperity in Liaodong, Wei Shuo also posted this notice in several counties in the eastern part of Xuzhou.
Unexpectedly, the notice was seen by Princess Qinghe, who happened to go to the street to buy something. Since being rescued by Wei Shuo, Princess Qinghe has been living in Zhuqi County, and it has been two years now. Two years of stable life gradually soothed the princess's scarred heart.
Qinghe is very satisfied with his two-year life in Zhuqi. At first, she was worried that Wei Shuo would think badly about her, but as Wei Shuo placed her and ignored it, Qinghe gradually relaxed her guard. At the same time, she also found out that Wei Shuo's promise that she could go to the street was also true, and in this way, Qinghe lived an ordinary life in Zhuqi County that was completely different from the past.
However, Qinghe has never forgotten Wei Shuo, and she always remembers who saved her from hell. For two years, Qinghe has been thinking about how to repay Wei Shuo, but he has never found a chance. And since Wei Shuo left Xuzhou in the winter of the previous year, Qinghe has never seen him again.
It wasn't until later that Qinghe accidentally learned that Wei Shuo had gone to Liaodong and broke out of a new world there. Originally, Qinghe thought that he would not have a chance to meet Wei Shuo in a short time, but he didn't expect to see the announcement of recruiting a female gentleman today. Princess Qinghe was born in the royal family and has received a good education since she was a child, so it is not difficult for her to apply for a small teaching gentleman.
Qinghe carefully read the detailed rules of the county guard office regarding the recruitment of female gentlemen. There was a fine light in her eyes, and with her knowledge, she couldn't see how much benefit and trouble this announcement would bring to Wei Shuo once it was released.
Qinghe's eyes were confused, and he said to himself: "Lord Wei is really different!" Should this princess say that you are a wise man and a brave man? Or are the ignorant fearless? ”
Don't look at Princess Qinghe, she doesn't feel that anyone disturbs her life at all in her daily life, in fact, this is all the credit of Zhang Erlang and Cao Hong. After Wei Shuo went to Liaodong, he handed over the safety of Princess Qinghe to the two of them. Every time Princess Qinghe went to the street, Cao Hong had to mobilize elites to secretly protect the princess's safety.
On this day, Cao Hong was arranging the training plan of the garrison in the prefecture. However, she received a report from the person in charge of taking care of the princess, saying that the princess wanted to meet the person in charge. As Cao Hong, who once had a relationship with the princess, although he couldn't understand why the princess, who had not looked for an official for two years, suddenly wanted to see him, he still came to the courtyard where the princess lived as quickly as possible.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, I don't know what you have to do when you come to the lowly position?"
Qinghe still has some impressions of Cao Hong, knowing that he and Wei Shuo rescued her from the tiger's mouth at sea, and he can be regarded as one of her life-saving benefactors.
Qinghe Ying's lips opened lightly: "Master Cao, Qinghe can have such a comfortable life today thanks to Lord Wei, and he has always been grateful for Lord Wei's help." I always want to find an opportunity to repay one or two. It's a pity that when the country is ruined and the family is ruined, Qinghe really doesn't know how to repay Lord Wei alone. ”
"The princess is too polite, Lord Wei is just a casual effort to help His Highness, and he didn't think about asking His Highness to repay anything." Because he didn't know what Princess Qinghe was planning, Cao Hong had to reply politely.
"Recently, Qinghe accidentally learned that Master Wei was worried about the lack of Mr. Teaching, so I also wanted to go to Liaodong to apply for Mr. Teaching, which can be regarded as repaying Mr. Wei's kindness."
Hearing Princess Qinghe tell her true intentions, Cao Hong was a little shocked. I didn't expect the pampered princess of a country. I have the audacity. At a time when most people scoffed at Wei Shuo's announcement, Qinghe dared to stand up in support of Wei Shuo. I have to say that Qinghe's courage is commendable.
"Princess, do you know how controversial the lord's move is? Met with opposition from almost everyone. Some women who are interested in applying for a teaching gentleman like a princess have been jointly suppressed by their families, and so far except for Pei Changshi's niece who has taken the initiative to stand up to support the lord, no other woman has dared to apply for the county guard's mansion. ”
"And considering that the princess's identity is a bit sensitive, if you are going to apply for Mr. Teach, you must hide your true identity. If the princess goes to Liaodong as an ordinary person to enlist. I will definitely put myself on the cusp of the storm, and I don't know what accidents will happen when the time comes. I think the princess should think about it again. ”
Cao Hong cautiously analyzed the predicament she would face if she went to Liaodong, and it was very likely that she would suffer from difficulties and criticism from all sides. And in the future, once the identity of the princess has a chance to shine in the daylight, the decision made by Qinghe today is very likely to make her lose her status as a princess forever.
Princess Qinghe smiled. rejected Cao Hong's kindness. After experiencing the catastrophe of life and death, Qinghe has long seen through the world, and the identity of a princess without strength is just a useless skin.
Soon after, Princess Qinghe came to Liaodong with the identity notice forged by Cao Hong for her. At this time, Ma Yan (Sima Yan, the princess of Qinghe) was standing in the lively Port Arthur, looking at the shadowy sailboats in the port, and couldn't help but feel relaxed. This is the first time that Ma Yan (Sima Yan) has traveled as an ordinary person, and it feels very fresh.
Under the rule of Liaodong, there were stable and peaceful, and there were patrolling militia and government soldiers everywhere, Ma Yan (Sima Yan) hired a carriage with a few servants and set out on the road to Xiangping. Speaking of the road conditions in Liaodong, we have to mention the big 'ten' traffic plan that is being carried out in Liaodong.
After Weishuo occupied Liaodong, he not only spent a lot of money and manpower to renovate roads in various places, but also planned two cement roads covering the east, west, north and south. Among them, the southern end of the cement road in the north and south is Lushun Port, along the east and west coasts of Liao, all the way north, successively passing through Wenxian, Anshi, Xinchang County, and then is a more important transit station - Xiangping, after Xiangping and then north is the Goguryeo City of Xuansu County.
In addition to this wide cement highway running through the north and south, there is also an east-west road connecting Xi'an Ping and Xiangping. Since the implementation of the Grand Cross Plan, after nearly two years, the north-south highway has been opened to traffic, and only the east-west line is still under intense construction.
Ma Yan (Sima Yan) sat in the spacious carriage and felt no signs of jolting. Intrigued, she lifted the curtains, and saw a straight, smooth concrete road winding into the distance, and she couldn't see the end of the road.
Shocked, Ma Yan (Sima Yan) couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah, what is this road made of?" How can it be so flat? ”
The driver is also a good talker, and when he saw this, he smiled and said, "The little lady is coming to Liaodong for the first time, right?" It's normal that I haven't seen cement, and I heard that cement was invented by Master Wei! It can be used to build cities, roads, bridges, houses, etc., in short, it has a wide range of uses. ”
"Speaking of Master Wei, that's a great ability! Since his old man defeated the Hu people and punished corrupt officials in various places, the good days of our people in Liaodong can be regarded as coming. Not only was the onerous poll tax exempted, but the government was not allowed to conscript conscription without compensation. Take this cement road as an example, in order to build this road, the county guard spent the money like running water. Most of them are used to pay the salaries of the people, and I don't know how many people in Liaodong have survived the most difficult times by relying on this road. ”
Ma Yan (Sima Yan) sat in the back, although he couldn't see the coachman's expression clearly, he could feel his heartfelt support for Wei Shuo from the other party's excited Chinese. Although Ma Yan (Sima Yan) doesn't understand any big truths, her background is destined for her to see some things that others can't see. In just a few words, Ma Yan (Sima Yan) realized that the hearts of the people in Liaodong had sided with Wei Shuo, and Wei Shuo's foundation in Liaodong had been stable. (To be continued.) )
