Chapter 309: Anger at the Six Princes
Okay, of course, the noble lady has come forward to speak, how can the old woman save your face! Pi Shi hurriedly agreed.
"Erniu, in fact, the eldest mother doesn't say that I want to say it, although you and Yulian are true feelings, but if you marry her, you have to live a good life, people live in this world can't live without firewood, rice, oil and salt, to put it mildly, you can't do without money, if you don't have the ability to support your family, you and Yulian will not be happy even if you get married, and you will have children after you get married, you don't want to let yourself sell your children and daughters like those poor households, right?" Zhang Youtao felt that she had never been so bitter.
"The villain understands what Miss Guiren means, I will definitely cherish the opportunity given to me by the Six Princes and you to get ahead, I will definitely let Yulian marry me in a beautiful way, and I will definitely let her live a good life!" Erniu said very gratefully to Zhang Youtao.
"Okay, Er Niu, although the injuries on your body are not very serious, you must also take care of them, you must be tired after a day of tossing, you go back to rest, you can rest assured that I will be fine in Yulian!"
"Thank you, Miss Noble, the villain will retire!" Erniu bowed respectfully, turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, it just so happens that you and the eldest lady are here, I'll introduce myself, my name is Zhang Youtao is the daughter of the servant of the ministry, you don't always call me Miss Guiren in the future, you just call me Miss Peach or Sister Peach or even call me by my name, it doesn't matter, you are a nobleman, let me feel uncomfortable listening to it!"
Er Niu and Pi Shi nodded at the same time and said, "Yes, the villain (old woman) has written it down!" ”
After Erniu retired, the Pi family also said with interest that he could not rest assured, and Yulian also left the room of the six princes.
When only Zhang Youtao and the Six Princes were left in the room, Zhang Youtao felt that the Six Princes were angry, and looked at him standing there with a black face without saying a word, Zhang Youtao sat down leisurely and poured himself a glass of water and drank it!
"Why did you slap my face in front of Erniu, I kindly came up with this silver pair to let Erniu and Yulian get married as soon as possible so as not to have many dreams at night, but you asked Erniu to go to General Yuan to be a soldier, don't you think it's fun to be against me?" The sixth prince was so angry that he glared at Zhang Youtao and questioned Zhang Youtao loudly.
"The courtiers don't dare, since the six princes think that the courtiers are disrespectful to you, then please treat me for a big charge of disrespect!" Zhang Youtao put down the teacup, although her face did not change, her words were clear but with a little anger.
"You...... Okay, I'm not going to bother with you, but tell me what your intentions are, and if you are convinced, I'll give you the guilt! The six princes were so angry that the tendons on their foreheads bulged, and their originally clean and handsome faces now looked terrifying.
"Sixth prince, you were born in the rich family of the Son of Heaven, although you have suffered a lot before, but you are still worry-free, although the emperor was very cold to your mother and son before, although your mother and son's life is bleak, but you have never tasted the taste of lack of food and clothing. Do you know how difficult the life of the people at the bottom of the Dayuan Kingdom is, they have worked hard for a year facing the loess north and the sky, if they catch up with the drought or flood, the crops will not be harvested, not to mention that they will not have enough to eat, and even the possibility of starving to death, those palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are from such poor families, if their parents have the means, will they be willing to let their children go to the palace to be slaves and maids? ”
Zhang Youtao's words shocked the six princes a lot, although there were many eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, he never thought about why they wanted to enter the palace as slaves and maids, he was thinking about how he would get out of the ground, and he didn't bother to think about anything else. He always felt that he was the most miserable person in the world, and he did not know that the suffering of the people was far greater than that of him, a hundred or even a thousand times.
"But what does this have to do with the marriage of the two cows?" The sixth prince was still a little unconvinced when he thought of this question.
"I ask you, you give Erniu silver to help him get married, then after getting married, do you want to let him be raised for a lifetime, Erniu is not a eunuch to enter the palace, he doesn't know martial arts, so you are not qualified to be a guard, he can't read and write, it is impossible for him to be a civil official, he doesn't have the mind to do business, it is impossible for him to do business, how do you let him support a family, people live to have silver, people live without silver except for panting, the palace does not raise idlers, you can't raise Erniu for a lifetime, right?" After Zhang Youtao said these words, she looked at the six princes without blinking.
"I can give him some land to support his farming, and he can support his family by farming!" The sixth prince looked at Zhang Youtao and said unconvinced.
"What meritorious thing did Er Niu do to let you reward him with the land, is it because he is more pitiful, there are many more poor people in the entire Great Abyss Country than him, if they all come to you, how much land do you have enough to reward them? Take 10,000 steps back and say that you can secretly reward him with some good land, do you think the current Erniu can keep the good land you gave him? Zhang Youtao's questions made the six princes completely speechless, and he sat down on the chair dejectedly.
"I let Erniu make a contribution, that is, let him learn to keep his family business and protect his beloved woman, only he has withstood the test, no matter what you give him in the future, he can keep it, instead of leaning on your wings to be a parasite for a lifetime. And on the other hand, it is too difficult for the poor people to have a bright future, so I let Er Niu go to General Yuan to let these people who are willing to endure hardships and have no chance to have a chance to work hard, so that they can also share worries for the country, am I doing something wrong? ”
"Oh, Tao'er, you are too powerful, if you are a man, you can be the prime minister of the dynasty!" When the sixth prince heard this, he suddenly turned to joy, he walked quickly to Zhang Youtao and grabbed her hand, his eyes shining with little stars of worship.
"It's a shame that I'm also a full reader of sage books, why can't I think of a way like you to kill three birds with one stone?"
"I haven't read the sage book, I am a little woman living in the people, because of this I know more about the suffering of the people than you, if you also want to understand the people's feelings in depth, you can go to the fields and do a few days of housework with the people during the spring ploughing, and I am guaranteed to gain more than you read a few days of sage books!" Zhang Youtao shook off the hand of the sixth prince without a trace.
"You have a point, not only when the spring ploughing, but also during the autumn harvest, not only I want to go, but also my father and all the princes and ministers, only by truly experiencing the life of the common people, we know how to issue an edict is the most beneficial to the common people!" The sixth prince didn't seem to notice Zhang Youtao's emotions, and the more he talked, the more he became more and more interested.
"It's not early, Your Highness should rest, I'll retire first!" Zhang Youtao was about to leave after speaking.
The sixth prince saw that Zhang Youtao was leaving, so he became anxious: "Tao'er, we haven't had dinner yet, why don't you let the maids bring dinner to my room and let's eat together!" ”
"No need, Yucui's mood is not very good today, I'm going to accompany her, you can have dinner by yourself later!" After Zhang Youtao walked to the door, he gently dropped a sentence to the six princes and left, and the six princes wanted to say anything but found that Zhang Youtao had already disappeared.
He looked at Zhang Youtao's back and sighed helplessly: "Alas, I'm angry again!" ”
As Zhang Youtao expected, Yucui kept crying silently in the room, and she didn't even eat dinner.
"Why don't you eat yet, it's cold for a while!" Zhang Youtao walked in front of Yucui and held her hand tightly.
"Miss, I'...... I can't eat it! Yucui looked at Zhang Youtao with tears in her eyes.
"I know what happened today has stimulated you a lot, you suffered too much when you were young, you think your mother was too cowardly to protect you well, but your mother also has her helplessness, in the law of the Great Abyss Kingdom, as long as a woman marries, no matter what kind of scum she marries, she must also marry her husband, there is no room for resistance, so she is powerless in the face of your rogue father, no matter how much she wants to protect you!"
"Miss, I understand what you said, I just don't know how to face her, after all, I have complained about her in my heart for more than ten years, let me recognize her at once, I really can't accept it!" Yucui's tears fell again.
"I understand how you feel, none of us are asking you to recognize your mother now, you both need time to regain the long-lost affection. I think I was not also an orphan girl who was outcast, although I later recognized my biological parents, but it took me a long time to relax in my heart, so I can understand your feelings best! Zhang Youtao gently stroked Yucui's hair, and Yucui fell into her arms.
"Miss, you are so good, it is my blessing to meet you!"
"Your blessing is still to come, in a few days you will marry General Yuan, there will be one more person in this world who loves you wholeheartedly, and in another three or five years, your children will be born, they will also love you very much, the hard days of the past are over, as long as I am not able to hurt you!" Zhang Youtao said to Yucui with a smile.
"Okay, the food is almost cold, I'm already hungry after a busy day, let's eat together!" Zhang Youtao wiped Yucui's tears with her own handkerchief. In this way, Zhang Youtao accompanied Yucui to dinner, Yucui said that she felt very empty in her heart and wanted Zhang Youtao to sleep with her at night, and Zhang Youtao agreed.
I thought I would get a good night's sleep after a tiring day, but something happened again when they were sleeping soundly!
