Chapter Fifty-Three: The Spy of the Wa Kingdom

On Xinglong Street in the east of Chang'an City, there is a family surnamed Yin, who has just moved from other towns, but the power is very great, a courtyard is larger than a dozen courtyards of ordinary people, and the gate archway is half a zhang higher than the gatehouse of the nearby people. Six one-meter-square lanterns lit up overnight, burning dozens of catties of oil a day, making poor families envious. This family is not an official and does not do business, but the head of the household, Yin Arat, gave birth to a beautiful daughter, this girl is none other than Concubine Yin De, the favorite concubine of Gaozu Li Yuan.

Yin Arat's is not very old, thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and he looks talented, but he doesn't know how to come up with this name. Although he is not very old, he is also the father-in-law of the emperor. Yin Arat's also became very spirited because of this, and he was also very particular. Anyone who passes by his gate on Xinglong Street has to nod his head when he walks, and he who rides a horse has to dismount. The nearby officials and others all knew about his problem, although they looked down on him in their hearts, but everyone passed by here, and they didn't dare to take it big, and they were respectful and behaved. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was all right.

Today's incident is a little strange, early in the morning, a convoy slowly drove into the Yin family's compound, and everyone found that Yin Arat, who had always been unexpected, actually greeted the people in the carriage respectfully at the door, and everyone speculated that the people in the carriage were relatives of the emperor.

"Greetings to the princess." Yin Arat, dressed in a rich gentleman's costume, held a purple clay pot in one hand, twisted his mustache in the future, and bowed respectfully to a woman who got off the carriage.

"Rat, are you still used to living in Datang?" The woman stepped down from the carriage gracefully, as if she was giving birth to a lotus step by step, graceful and graceful.

"If you go back to the princess, the little one is quite used to it." Yin Arat's smile was very flattering.

"Just get used to it. By the way, what about Xiao Yin? Princess Ben hadn't seen her for a long time. The woman's voice was sweet.

Yin Arat frowned and said: "Back to the princess, I'm afraid you won't be able to see Xiao Yin, she has been in the palace of the Tang Dynasty now, and it is not easy for the villain to see her once." ”

The woman's expression did not change in the slightest. said lightly: "I know, I will remember Xiao Yin's contribution to my big widow." ”

Yin Arata nodded and said: "The princess can remember, presumably even if Xiao Yin dies in the Tang Dynasty, he will die without regrets." Immediately, as if he had discovered something, Yin Arat frowned and looked at the passers-by who came around to see what was going on, and said in a low voice: "The princess is still invited to enter the mansion, it is not appropriate to discuss matters here." ”

The woman nodded slightly. elegantly put away the front skirt, followed Yin Arat's into Yin's mansion with a few steps

"Rat, I've been in Datang for so long, and I don't have any important information." I saw a Hanfu woman sitting in the main hall, holding a cup of tea. Slip it with the tea lid a few times and take a sip.

"Princess Hui, our spies from the Wa Kingdom have now held positions in many organs in the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately because of their low talent, they can't hold important positions, so most of them are the low-level institutions of some governments, such as the county government's account office, catching fast and so on." Yin Ah rat swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "If you want to say the best spy, that is Weichen's daughter Yin Tenghuāzi, who has always been the favorite concubine of the emperor's side. It's just that it's too difficult to get the information out, and the information is only ten at a time. ”

"Say." The woman said lightly.

"One piece of information is that there is a popular toy in the palace now, called mahjong, and the palace maids and concubines in the harem like to play with this thing the most" Yin Arat, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman.

"What to do with these useless words, say something military."

"Yes, yes." Yin Arat wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. A little frightened: "If you want to talk about the military, you must talk about the firearms that Datang has only recently come out." Among these firearms, the Sky Cannon and Thunderbolt are the most famous, which were reported in the "Datang News"

"Oh?" The woman let out a voice of surprise. "When I came to Datang four years ago, I didn't seem to have heard of this "Datang News", what is this?"

"The princess doesn't know anything." Yin Arat's flattering said: "Princess, you were the first batch of female students in the Tang Dynasty envoy four years ago, and the Guozijian did not accept you, so you couldn't stay in the Tang Dynasty. ”

The woman still had an incomprehensible expression, this Yin Ah Rat hurriedly walked to the corner of the hall, opened a piece of masonry, and took out a large wooden box from the slit of the back door.

"Princess, this is the "Datang News" that the villain has collected during this time, and recently Nanshan Academy has also set up a new newspaper called "Datang Business Daily", and the villain has not ordered anyone to buy it." Yin Arat, pointing to the newspapers, said respectfully.

The woman curiously took the wooden box, took out a newspaper from it, opened it, held it in her hand, and saw a long list of Chinese characters in the middle of the newspaper: 'The Tang army conquered South America', and many small characters were attached below.

The woman read the newspaper from top to bottom very quietly, and the shock on her face was a little difficult to hide.

"Isn't this kind of newspaper very rare in Datang?" The woman asked, frowning.

Yin Arat was stunned for a moment before saying: "Hui Yu Princess, this thing is only sold for five cents a chapter in Datang."

"Queen Mother~Why don't you tell your father that you want to run a women's college~" A girl wearing a pink palace dress and about * years old shook the clothes of the eldest grandson queen and said coquettishly.

"Lizhi, how can this be rude, you have to learn from those sisters of yours, don't always be coquettish with the queen mother." Empress Eldest Sun said helplessly.

"No~ Queen Mother, Lizhi wants to go to school, Lizhi also wants to go to the academy to study like her brother, Brother Qingque has been bragging to Lizhi for a long time after he came back last time, Lizhi wants to see it~" The little girl seemed to be very fond of Empress Changsun, so she didn't reprimand her in disregard of etiquette.

"Okay, okay, the queen mother will take you to see what the academy is like next time." The eldest grandson said helplessly.

"Queen Mother, Sister Xiangcheng, Sister Runan, Sister Nanping, now they have all written a thousand-word book, I just want my father to approve that women can also enter the academy to study, you are the representative of women in the world, the mother of the world, why don't you speak." The girl pulled the hem of the eldest grandson's clothes and said with an innocent look.

"Lizhi, sue the queen mother, who taught you this?" Empress Eldest Sun reacted at this time, it was difficult for a little girl to say such a thing.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Princess Changle suddenly turned off the fire, and in a hurry, she panicked and said: "Brother Chu Mo said that if you don't let me say it, I will definitely not say it." ”

Empress Eldest Sun snorted and laughed, sure enough, the child was still a child.

"Cheng Chumo? It's the eldest son of Cheng Zhijie's family. Empress Changsun squinted her eyes, Princess Qinghe was going to marry him, this kid must be through Guò Qinghe, and the entire Princess Taizong knew about it.

secretly scolded this kid in his heart for really making trouble, but the eldest grandson queen did not show the slightest expression on her face.

"Women go to school, this is something that has never happened in the world, in the past, at most they only studied at home to study private school or learn embroidery, once women are also allowed to enter the academy to study, in this world, there will be a lot of scholars who jump out and say that this violates the ancestral system." Empress Changsun caressed Princess Changle's head and explained softly.

But the queen mother, Brother Chu Mo said, Guiguzi said, learning is the most basic right of people, regardless of men and women. This is what the first generation of Guiguzi said. "Although Princess Changle is young, she has also inherited the wisdom of her father and mother, and she speaks eloquently." Many of the things Guiguzi said have not become a reality, so Lizhi thinks that women should be able to go to school, and those scholars themselves can go to school, and they have not experienced the taste of not being able to go to school, but 'only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps'"

Empress Eldest Sun re-examined her ghostly, small-ghosted daughter.

"Lizhen, after suing the mother, where did you learn these words?"

"Newspaper~ Lizhi likes to read newspapers the most"
