Chapter 82: Man's Troubles
Meng Yanyi was lying on the bed, she didn't mind crumpling her bridal clothes at all.
In her heart, getting married is just a change of place to eat and a change of place to sleep.
The dowry money that the emperor gave her was enough for her to squander for several lifetimes.
Anyway, you always have to get married. It's better to marry someone who looks pleasing to your eyes than to marry a sister like you.
No matter what aspect it is, Meng Yanyi is satisfied with Baili Wuji.
In Shu Kingdom, I am afraid that except for my brother, I will never be able to find anyone who can compare with Baili Wuji.
Therefore, Meng Yanyi is very satisfied with this marriage.
In addition to the fact that the house is too low, the bed is too small, the furniture is not luxurious enough, there are not enough servants, etc., Meng Yanyi is also satisfied with the new house.
The only thing that is a little entangled in her heart is the woman named "Gao Rongrong" in the west.
It is said that she is a woman who is a hundred miles away from the past.
This made Meng Yanyi very uncomfortable, besides, I heard that she was two years older than herself, could she let a princess of Dashu call her sister? This is absolutely intolerable to Meng Yanyi.
So, Meng Yanyi decided that he had to communicate with Gao Rongrong and call each other the princesses of the East and the West.
……。
Three days later.
Meng Yanyi couldn't bear it anymore and didn't want to endure it anymore.
That bastard named Baili Wuji actually ignored the main palace.
It's been three days, and I've been staying in the east every day.
This is too much for Princess Dashu to lose face.
So, on the night of the fourth day, Meng Yanyi sent the palace maid to accompany the marriage and called Baili Wuji.
The palace maid naturally didn't dare to say "call".
You can only use please.
Baili Wuji is coming.
Please.
Meng Yanyi expelled the palace maids, stepped forward and began to ask the teacher.
"Baili Wuji, do you want to rebel?"
What does this mean? Baili Wuji slandered.
"The princess is angry, Wuji doesn't know why Princess Ludao is angry, and asks the princess to make it clear."
"There is no scoooo for a hundred miles, this palace is married to you, and you should cherish it. But you hung the palace here, and disappeared for three days, what does this mean? Do you want to despise this palace? Do you despise Dashu? Do you think that this palace will not dare to play the Holy Lord? ”
After all, Meng Yanyi was born in the royal family, and this hat was buttoned more seriously than the other.
"Uh......."
Baili Wuji is very innocent, he originally thought that this Meng Yanyi was a little younger, and out of care, he wanted to wait a few days before he could talk about it, but he suffered a disaster without thinking.
"Nothing more? Running out of lyrics? Meng Yanyi looked at Baili Wuji playfully.
Baili Wuji was forced to be helpless, so he gritted his teeth and submitted.
With a triumphant smile, Meng Yanyi stepped forward and approached Baili Wuji's ear, and said softly: "Don't worry, this palace won't say anything about you today?" "Isn't it just that? When the main palace left the palace, he had already been guided by the old palace maid. Meng Yanyi is now very confident and thinks that he is enough to deal with all the trivial things that follow.
Baili Wuji was stimulated by this, and it was unbearable for Shike.
Thereupon.......
According to the maid who waited outside the house, it was quiet at first, but after a while, I only heard a miserable scream, and then I heard the princess scolding angrily: "Baili Wuji, you bastard, you hurt me...... ”
"Baili Wuji, I want to play this ...... to the saint."
Maybe it was because the attached horse had taken some remedy, and then he didn't hear the princess's scolding.
I only heard the princess's slightly angry "Hmm...... Hmm...... Hmm......" sound.
……。
For men, all the troubles and troubles in the world seem to be caused by women.
The only thing that is more troublesome than one woman is two women.
Unfortunately, there are three women in Baili Wuji.
……。
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Shu Guangzheng five years, June.
The changes in the state of Chu can only be described as changing with each passing day.
Especially in the city of Tanzhou, the bustling crowds on the streets are so dense that you feel that you can't get into it anymore.
In the change from Tiance Mansion to Erudite Academy, there are already 360 gentlemen and 5,800 students in 16 subjects and 5 schools in Erudite Schools. And the gentlemen from all over the world are flocking in.
Merchants from all over the country gathered, and the people of Tanzhou engaged in business in large numbers, and even the two patriarchs in Badong, who had been participating in the ordnance, also set up dozens of shops on the West Street of Tanzhou and started business.
The overseas Koreans, Fusang people, Wu Dynasty people, and Khitan people were also attracted from Kaifeng Prefecture to Tanzhou.
Tanzhou seems to have replaced Kaifeng Mansion and become an economic and cultural center.
Baili Wuji felt that something was still missing.
Because there is not a single woman among so many gentlemen and students.
This made Baili Wuji very uncomfortable.
It's not that he wants to be different, but Baili Wuji thinks that if the other half of the labor force is liberated, it will make the Chu State develop and grow faster, and in Baili Wuji's heart, time really waits for no one, and in the face of the strong enemy of the Khitan, even if it is the current strength of the Chu State, there is too much gap.
Wars, especially the wars of the whole nation, depend on strength.
Any victory that is won by luck or by the courage of one or two soldiers is like a drop in the ocean of national war, and cannot play a decisive role.
When Baili Wuji proposed to open the imperial examination to girls, it was unanimously opposed by officials from Xu Shiming and Sun Guangxian.
There are three reasons for opposition, ancestry, customs, and funding.
Xu Shiming is indeed very direct, he said that the king of Chu has the final say, the ancestral system and customs can be ignored, and who will pay for the funds?
The tuition fees borne by erudite schools and local state capitals are already a heavy burden, and if you have to add another one, I am afraid that there is nothing you can do for the time being.
Baili Wuji was helpless, although the income of the Chu State had doubled compared with the previous Ma Xifan period, but because the tax was reduced to two out of ten, the income of the government increased by only three percent. After the popularization of Zhancheng rice this year, Baili Wuji forcibly reduced the agricultural tax to 1 out of 10 and the commercial tax to 1 out of 15. In the short term, I'm afraid there will be no way.
"Xu Xiang, do you want to use the two million taels?" Baili Wuji still started the idea of compensation.
"My lord, the minister thinks it's better to move the three million taels." Xu Shiming was-for-tat.
……。
Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence.
Baili Wuji looked for money everywhere to no avail, so he could only put it on hold for the time being.
Unexpectedly, anyone was interested in this proposal.
It's not one, it's two.
Gao Rongrong and Meng Yanyi.
The two men unexpectedly chose to take sides in their response to the proposal.
There may be a few women who don't eat in this world, and there is not even one woman who is not jealous.
Some people say that the animal that women hate the most is snakes.
It is also said that women hate rats the most.
In fact, what do women really hate the most?
Woman!
Perhaps the most hated animal for women is precisely women.
A woman who can be her rival in love, especially a woman who is more beautiful than her.
