A good night's sleep.

The next day, as soon as Jiang Juan woke up, she saw Jin'er, and she didn't think much about it, after all, Jin'er was basically waiting when she got up.

It was only after getting out of bed that Jiang Juan reacted, "Why did you come back?" ”

Jin Er chuckled, "The second wife knelt all night, and when the rooster crowed three times in the morning, she didn't hold on to the sleepiness, and her head hit the ground, and then she fainted not long after, and was carried back to the south courtyard." ”

The second wife is no longer in the Buddha Hall, and she has no need to stay in the Buddha Hall, so she will go back to Bai Jingxuan.

Jiang Juan smiled faintly, sat back on the bed, and said, "My knees still hurt badly, just wash up on the bed." ”

Wanjuanlou was locked up, but it wasn't that the second wife could dissipate her anger by kneeling and fainting.

The second wife's temperament, no matter how much she suffers, she will not have a long memory, and the old lady has to suffer losses.

Only if the old lady suffers a loss, will she discipline the second wife, so as not to target her everywhere in the future, but Jiang Juan does not have the luxury of hoping that the second wife will be able to learn to be obedient this time, and it is impossible for the second wife not to avenge Qi Xuan'er's revenge.

This time, the second wife believed in Xizizhai so easily, not because of Qi Xuan'er, she couldn't wait to vent her evil anger to her daughter, but she gave herself a pit.

Jiang Juan didn't get out of bed, Jin Er waited for her to wash her face, and the maid who brought the food into the house saw it clearly.

Jin Er moved a few more, and Jiang Juan leaned on the big pillow to eat porridge, in a good mood and with a better appetite.

She didn't know that at this moment, in the council hall, Mrs. Xun was the leader, and she stood up and praised Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan.

This compliment, Mrs. Xun has long wanted to say, it is to endure and endure.

Now that Wanjuanlou has opened, although it is closed again, Wanjuanlou's books have been sold a lot, and there is no need to hide punctuation marks anymore.

Mrs. Xun said to the emperor, "The prince of Jing'an and the princess are really a pair of wonderful people, and they actually came up with punctuation marks to divide the article, but those few short symbols make the article much easier to read and understand." ”

Led by Mrs. Xun, several ministers stood up and seconded the proposal, without exception, Qi Moyuan invited the minister who added punctuation to the book.

The emperor nodded and said, "It's really good." ”

Old lady Xun glanced at the prince, and then said, "I heard that the shop of the princess of Jing'an is not going to open again?" ”

The prince did not speak.

Mrs. Xun said, "Your Majesty, the books sold in the Wanjuan Building, the minister asked his subordinates to buy a few copies yesterday, the quality is not bad, the price is cheap, and it can help the world's readers save a lot of expenses, so it is a pity to close the door like this." ”

If it weren't for the indecent use of the thin paper, Mrs. Xun would have wanted to write a fu to praise it.

Thinking that she might not be able to buy such thin paper in the future, Mrs. Xun was in a hurry.

Although he knew that it was not difficult to find the prince of Jing'an, he was too dignified, and it didn't cost much to ask for too much of that paper, and he was willing to buy it out of his pocket, but the premise was that Wanjuanlou would sell it.

Seeing that the prince didn't speak, the emperor said, "The princess of Jing'an really doesn't plan to reopen the Wanjuan Building?" ”

The prince didn't nod or shake his head, and replied, "The minister doesn't know anything about opening a shop and doing business, and the study is opened by the princess, and the minister hasn't asked, so she is happy if she can't open it." ”

"This is not something that the princess is happy about, this is a great achievement for the world's scholars, and King Jing'an can get a snack," Mrs. Xun said urgently.

The emperor said meaningfully, "If the study is not open, I will lose a lot." ”

It's not just money that's lost, it's talent.

When books are cheaper, there are more people reading them.

The more people who read, the more people who participate in the imperial examination, and the more talented the imperial court can select.

The emperor put pressure on the prince in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and after the prince returned to the house, he went to find Qi Moyuan and Jiang Juan.

Qi Mo came out to see the prince, and the prince said, "What about the princess?" ”

"Playing with a few silver tickets in bed boring," Qi Moyuan twitched at the corner of his mouth.

“……。”

The prince had a black line on his face and said, "When will the shop reopen?" ”

Qi Mo said from afar, "I'm afraid it won't open, the princess has already calculated, her pressure box is enough for her to eat for a lifetime, so you don't have to bother opening a shop." ”

Jiang Juan is not short of money, the prince knows.

If you don't open a shop anymore, you are angry, and the prince is also very sure.

The prince moved the emperor out to make steps, just finished speaking, Jin Er came out with 20,000 taels of silver tickets, and took out a stack of house deeds and title deeds, Jin Er Fu said, "Lord, yesterday Wanjuan Building closed not long after it opened, the shop did not earn enough 20,000 taels, the princess and the emperor's bet lost, 20,000 taels were lost to the emperor, let you transfer it to the emperor, she is willing to gamble and lose." ”

"She doesn't want this deed of ownership, and she will return it to the emperor."

The prince has a headache, this is obviously to pit the old lady and cherish the word for 20,000 taels.

Although I heard from the dark guard that the princess's money would give birth, it didn't go down so fast, right?

The prince didn't take the silver ticket, but only said "don't be rash" and turned away.

However, Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan's bet with the emperor was also known to everyone, and it soon spread and spread outside the palace.

Many people feel sorry for Jiang Juan, and they have been wronged and the shop has not been opened, not to mention, and they have put in 20,000 taels, which is also too unlucky.

At the time of lunch, Tan Yue, the Hou Shizi of Liyang and the third young master of the Peiguo Mansion entered the Hongyan Building to eat, and as soon as they entered, they were asked, "Changenhou, are the princes and concubines of Jing'an really not opening their studies?" ”

"It shouldn't be opened," Tan Yue said.

"That's a big loss, isn't it?" There is humanity.

Tan Yue smiled, "Aside from the gambling contract, in fact, I didn't lose much money, my cousin-in-law opened the study purely to gamble, and she is also a bookseller, whether Wanjuanlou makes money or not, and the word is the clearest." ”

Although everyone guesses that Wanjuanlou doesn't make money, Tan Yue's words confirm that Wanjuanlou is still profitable, but it's not much.

Think about it again, the ten thousand rolls are sold so cheaply and profitably, how big is the profit of the word Zhai?

It's too black-hearted!

Just when everyone was indignant, Liyang Hou Shizi said with a smile, "In fact, the real loss is not the princess of Jing'an, but the poor people of Kyoto." ”

Some men puzzled, "What does this have to do with our people?" ”

Liyang Hou Shizi snapped the folding fan and shook it gently, "The emperor has the condition of rewarding Wanjuanlou to the princess of Jing'an, and part of the profits from Wanjuanlou will be used to build the academy and maintain the daily expenses of the academy, so that those who can't afford to hire a gentleman can send their children to study in the academy without restraint." ”

"The princess of Jing'an opened a study for gambling, and she was happy not to make money and fight for her breath, so she readily agreed."

"I'm afraid that the academy won't be able to build it for a while, so I made a bet with the emperor, if the profit on the first day of Wanjuanlou exceeds 20,000 taels, then the emperor will take 20,000 taels out of his own pocket to build the academy, and the emperor will readily agree."

Speaking of this, Liyang Hou Shizi sighed, "It was originally a happy thing, who would have thought that there would be branches, Wanjuan Building was closed as soon as it opened, and the study of the princess of Jing'an was not opened, and she lost 20,000 taels to the emperor for nothing, how could she be happy?" ”

"If it were you, would you still be in the mood to reopen the Wanjuan Building?"

The third young master of the Peiguo Mansion also sighed, "Now not only the princess of King Jing'an is unhappy, but the emperor is even more unhappy. ”

"Although the princess of Jing'an is willing to gamble and lose, it is too difficult to open the academy for 20,000 taels, and maintaining the academy is a large expense.

Well.

A few words raised the emperor high.

The diners of Hongyan House call the emperor Shengming.

Thinking about the opening of the academy is very likely to be in vain, after all, the treasury is not so rich, and it is unlikely that tens of thousands of taels will be paid every year to open the academy.

Even if it can be opened, in case of natural disasters and man-made disasters, the treasury itself can't take care of it, but can it still take care of a academy?

The young masters of those ministers' families are not short of teachers to teach, and they are afraid that there are too many scholars in the world, and they will turn around and compete with their sons for official positions.

It is almost certain that it is only a matter of time before the seowon is closed after a meeting is to be transferred from the treasury.

Thinking that his son could have read and write without spending money, because of the cherishing of the word, the princess of Jing'an was innocently angry and ruined, and the anger of the cherished word was conceivable.

It's always irrational to be angry, no, someone throws rotten eggs into the word fast.

With the rotten eggs that took the lead, the rotten vegetable leaves and stones flew straight into the Xizizhai, and the forced Xizizhai had to close the door.
