Chapter 294: The Queen Mother's Majesty
Returned to the mansion and stepped into the Wutong Courtyard, in the study, Yushu slept alone at the desk.
Wu Qing walked up to him gently, poof, kissed on the face, Yushu suddenly got up, raised his hand and hit, after seeing that it was Wu Qing, he was stunned for a moment, quickly put down his slender hand, knelt on the ground, "The slave knows the mistake, the slave knows the mistake!" ”
Wu Qing was also stunned, he didn't expect this Yushu's defensive psychology to be so strong, he slowly helped Yushu up, and said, "Why have you been sleepy all this time?" ”
"The slave doesn't know." Yushu lowered her head.
Wu Qing said: "Let the dust take a look tomorrow, don't get a strange disease." ”
"The slave knows, and the master Xie cares." Yu Shu bowed and prepared to go out.
Wu Qing smiled: "What are you going to do when you go out, come, see what I bring you." ”
So he took out the brocade box and took out the blood phoenix bracelet, Wu Qing smiled: "Stretch out your hand." ”
Yushu blushed, but didn't stretch out his hand, Wu Qing grabbed his arm, put the blood phoenix bracelet on, and then kissed his finger and praised: "It's so beautiful." ”
"Master, this bracelet is very precious." Yushu's eyes showed a look of joy.
Wu Qing looked at the joy on Yushu's face, it seems that this woman doesn't like jewelry, a bracelet makes her so happy, he only knows that venting his lust on this woman, but he really doesn't care much.
He took the jade gargle into his arms and said, "You are more precious than the bracelet, and, don't eat the pill, give me a girl, beautiful like you, okay?" ”
Yu Shu was stunned for a moment and said, "You found out by the master." ”
"That little secret about you. Can you hide the eyes of General Ben? Wu Qing said with a smile.
Yushu nodded but didn't dare to speak, she knew what was going to happen next.
But I heard Wu Qing say: "Hurry up and prepare food for me, I'm hungry for my husband!" ”
Yu Shu owes herself. Blushing and running out.
But it's not that simple, after eating, the two of them take a bath, and then do the happy thing between the man and the woman.
Wu Qing, who had not touched a woman for a long time, had a brace overnight.
In the blink of an eye, in December, Wu Qing had already written the notes on the opening of primary and secondary schools in various prefectures and counties, and then presented them to the Zhenguan Palace. Wait for messages.
Although it is said that the court does not need a penny, and the school can be opened in the name of the imperial court, after all, it is named "pure heart". The literati of the Tang Dynasty are not fools, and the court officials are not fools, so if the Empress Dowager Wu does not support this matter, there will be no hope at all.
Of course, once there is the support of Empress Dowager Wu. In addition, there are nearly 60 Jinshi who have gone out of Qingxin Academy today. So it is not difficult to succeed in these states and counties as a pilot first, not to mention that in the name of the imperial court, the officials of the states and counties where they are located will not have too much resistance, and each state and county has a state school and county school, but it does not affect their normal operation.
However, on this day, Cheng Wuting was escorted to Beijing on charges of "conspiring with Pei Yan and Xu Jingye", and Cheng Wuting was friendly with Tang Zhiqi and Du Qiuren. This made him even more guilty of "conspiracy".
After Wu Qing got the news, he couldn't care about it. He immediately entered the palace and prepared to save Cheng Wuting, Cheng Wuting used to be his own general, if he didn't save him, who would dare to save him?
Empress Dowager Wu soon summoned Wu Qing, and after Wu Qing saw the salute, she went straight to the point and said: "Mother, that Cheng Wuting was a child general, known as a strategy, once studied under Pei Xingjian, is a rare general in the army, and is a person who defends against the Turks. ”
Empress Dowager Wu was also stunned, and couldn't help scolding: "Inheriting the heir and thinking about it is harmful!" "Empress Dowager Wu is now in the dynasty and calls herself me.
Wu Qing chuckled in his heart, it's over!
It turned out that as soon as Cheng Wuting was escorted to the Eastern Capital, he went straight to the entrance of the vegetable market and beheaded the public!
Wu Qing didn't say anything, then bowed and slowly withdrew from the Zhenguan Palace. He didn't believe that Empress Dowager Wu would not know the importance of Cheng Wuting, Cheng Wuting died, and the northern border was in constant trouble, if the invasion of Tubo was added, then the Tang Dynasty would not fall into civil strife. The powerful clan will also take advantage of the opportunity to rise up and raise an army against the military in the name of King Qin.
Not long after, Wang Fangyi, the governor of Xiazhou, was also exiled to Yazhou by Cheng Wuting, and later died in Yazhou.
Since the second day of the deposed of Li Xian, the king of the new emperor Luling, the hundred horsemen criticized the government, and after being informed, all of them were beheaded and shown to the public, and the whistleblower was awarded the official of the five grades, and the wind of whistleblowing began.
Wu Qing got information from Fengzhou, and since Cheng Wuting's death, the Turks carnivaled for several days and set up an ancestral hall for Cheng Wuting, which made Wu Qing more and more angry.
However, the imperial court issued an order to allow Wuqing to open primary and secondary schools in various prefectures and counties, and announced to the world that Wuqing was commended for his heart for the country and the people.
In the study, Wu Qing smiled bitterly, is this the compromise of Empress Dowager Wu? But since the person is dead, he can't help it, and Cheng Wuting's family is gone, so he can only stay to take care of it later. Immediately, he wrote an envelope to the Jinshi County Commanders of Qingxin Academy, and wrote a note to send the capable people of Qingxin Academy to the servants and sent it to Qingxin Academy along with the letter, and asked the vice president to deal with it.
The wind of whistleblowing happens from time to time, so Wu Qing can't help it, he can only be cautious, so as not to fall into the villain's frame, and strictly order the servants in the mansion and the industrial personnel everywhere to be cautious, so as not to be plotted by the villain.
In short, under the wind of whistleblowing, the DPRK and China were turbulent, the army was also turbulent, and the Eastern Turks were attacked and plundered from time to time, but fortunately, the frontier soldiers worked hard and did not capture half a step, and the heavy snow closed the mountains, the horses could not walk, and only a small group of Turkic cavalry plundered, which was not a major matter. But it is foreseeable that in the coming year, when the cattle and sheep give birth, then it will be the time for a large-scale invasion.
Empress Dowager Wu looked at the snowflakes of the border pass, as well as the turmoil in the court, the hundred officials already had a perfunctory momentum to her, and decided to make a difference!
This day is the Great Pilgrimage.
Empress Dowager Wu was in the light purple tent, and the new emperor Li Dan rested in the Xifang Palace.
After the hundred officials visited the shrine, there was a supervisor in the palace to interrogate.
All the officials said nothing, and the Empress Dowager Wu couldn't help but be angry when she saw that the hundred officials were so slack and perfunctory.
"I have nothing to lose in the world. Do you know? ”
Hearing the Queen Mother's angry accusations, the officials were submissive, and no one spoke. Wu Qing naturally didn't know how to speak, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi didn't let go of a fart in the court, but they had to go to the Empress Dowager Wu to blow the wind.
Empress Dowager Wu stood up, walked out of the light purple tent, and said: "I have been the emperor for more than 20 years, and I am very worried about the world, and I also understand it in my heart!" The minister is rich and noble. I am with it; The world is happy, and I will raise it for a long time! Now the first emperor is gone, and the world is entrusted to me. I don't love my body, but I love the people. Why did you live up to me? ”
The hundred officials were silent for a while, not daring to make a sound. Wu Qing despised these people even more in his heart, but none of them spoke, and the prime minister became an ornament. Sorrowful!
Empress Dowager Wu continued: "Do you have a bereaved old minister, who is stubborn and difficult to control Pei Yan? Is there a noble breed of generals who can entangle outlaws more than Xu Jingye? Who is a person who has a heavy army in hand and is committed to winning the offensive battle? ”
The ministers are submissive. He shook his head, but didn't dare to answer.
Empress Dowager Wu obviously wants to govern these ministers today, so she continued: "These three people, their prestige and status, are known to the world, and they are not conducive to me, and I can kill them!" Qing and others have these three, and they did it immediately. Otherwise, you must change your mind. Don't be laughed at by the world! ”
The hundred officials paused, not daring to look at it, and the prime ministers expressed their position first, saying: "The ministers obey the dispatch of the Queen Mother, and they will not give up!" ”
Immediately afterwards, the rest of the hundred officials also bowed down to express their attitude, and Wu Qing followed.
After this incident, although there were whistleblowers from time to time, the officials no longer slackened off and tried their best to do their own affairs, and the frontier also ushered in a short period of tranquility because it had reached the end of the year.
Empress Dowager Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and took the opportunity to promote some people, Pei Judao moved to Qiuguan Shangshu and Fengge Luantai Sanpin, Wei Siqian was the right Suzheng doctor and Tongfeng Pavilion Luantai Sanpin and so on.
Wu Qing also finally saw the power of the Empress Dowager Wu, and the power of punishment and reward, this is the way of the king, and it was used by the Empress Dowager Wu perfectly.
In this way, it came to the end of the year, and the Wu Mansion was also very busy, because Wu Yuer was pregnant, and it was inconvenient to deal with everything, Wu Qing, an idle general, stayed in the mansion more, he knew that this was not right, but this made the Empress Dowager Wu like it, so after walking around the court every day, he went to the north gate to stroll around, and finally after inspecting the Qingxin Academy, he returned to the mansion to deal with the accounts of the house.
In addition to the chief manager of Wuda in the house, there are three stewards, all of whom have been old slaves for ten years, so Wu Qing is also relieved, looking at the records in the account book, he is a mixed bag, the lime and coal industries are extremely unsatisfactory, the restaurant and breakfast shop can almost be maintained, the profits of the tea shop have shrunk, the grain store is basically flat except for the freight, Jiangbei Salt Bank has a dividend of 200,000 guan, and the rest of the miscellaneous items add up to about 300,000 guan, only Haimao has maintained last year's level, 50 million guan!
Wu Qing knows that if this continues, sooner or later it will close down, and it seems that he has to encourage the research and development of new products. I have to send a competent man to check the accounts, and I can't say that there is no shopkeeper making trouble. There is intelligence that Old Man Li is now hugging left and right every day, full of belly fat, and only handing things over to his shopkeepers every day to do. There is also that Wang Xiu, who has never met him, which has made him suspicious, intelligence shows that he has married more than 30 women and has more than 10 mistresses, it seems that their lives are too nourishing, and they are completely degenerate.
Playing with women or something, he won't care, but if he doesn't do his job properly and there is such a loophole in the business, he has to take care of it, and he will not hesitate to kill it directly. It seems that Yan Ruyu has to check the details of these two people.
For such a business problem, Wu Qing has no better way for the time being, after all, the industry is handed over to trustworthy people to take care of, full of warmth and lust, this is a common situation, so he must also learn from the Empress Dowager Wu, and the two powers of punishment and reward can be controlled, kill a few, and reward a few.
Since he made a decision, he came to Qingfeng Building, and the shopkeeper naturally knew Wu Qing's identity, and after greeting him personally, he didn't dare to pay attention to it. Wu Qing went directly to the floor compartment and stepped into the room.
After entering the house, I saw that Yan Ruyu was not so active this time. Wu Qing is very at ease in his heart, every time he is hooked by this girl, he can't correct the Fa.
"The teacher is not here to see me, just tell me something." I didn't see Yan Ruyu get up, still sitting behind the bookcase.
Wu Qing took the opportunity to sit on the bookcase and said with a smile: "I just came to see you and do something by the way." ”
Yan Ruyu looked at Wu Qing with charming eyes, then walked to him, sat on Wu Qing's lap, and said, "Say, the slave is listening!" ”
Wu Qing felt the two petals to the touch, a little uneasy, so he said something, Wu Qing sideways saw a stack of papers on the bookcase, he opened it with one hand and saw that it was a portrait of a man, Wu Qing felt a little familiar.
"Don't look!" Yan Ruyu said angrily, and quickly got up and threw the stack of papers to the ground.
Wu Qing was stunned, isn't the portrait himself? This Nizi is really, Wu Qing looked at the full chest again, the foxy eyes, and couldn't help but feel lustful, and said: "You, what do you want to do when you draw my head?" ”
As he spoke, he pounced on it like a hungry tiger pounced, without the slightest intention of pity and pity. But in a moment, Yan Ruyu lay on top of the bookcase, the skirt on her body was torn to the ground, and the pieces of white and tender were covetous, and a strong figure behind her was constantly moving.
