Chapter 314: A Cry
Seeing this scene, everyone whispered:
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has sent people, why didn't the Queen show up? Don't you support this kind of bazaar? ”
"Who knows, anyway, for so many years, the queen has hardly participated in any activities except for some royal activities in the capital, by the way, five years ago, the concubines of the harem made a donation for the flooding of the two lakes, but it was also five years ago."
"Didn't you hear that King Xuan only has such a lady? Why haven't you been crowned a concubine yet? Such a good woman is not a concubine, what are you doing with it? Just because they are farmers? ”
"In this situation, whose background can catch up with what others are doing? So the crown princess is the daughter of the former national teacher? What has been done for the common people? ”
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's not good for others to hear it......"
The voice of everyone's discussion was very low, but it was still heard by Mrs. Taiwei and the people secretly sent by the queen.
"In this auction, the one with the highest price will get ......," the host finished speaking, and someone had already brought up the first auction item......
"Reserve price of 5,000 taels ......"
"Six thousand taels ......"
"Eight thousand taels ......"
"In order for the children of poor families to have a school, my Xiao family is willing to pay 30,000 taels ......" Xiao Junyi was also at the auction site.
When Tong Xiaowu heard this, she glanced back at him and couldn't help laughing, Xiao Junyi always knows what he should do and what he shouldn't do, and he deserves the title of PHS in the capital.
At this time, everyone looked at him and whispered, "Who is this, who is this, such a cow!" ”
The name of the Xiao family is once again on the hot search in Beijing this time......
"One, two, three, no one exceeds 30,000 taels, and the transaction is ......"
The second lot is still sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver, the third, the fourth, until the end, the lowest price has not fallen 10,000 taels of silver, and even a string of colorful glass beads can be auctioned for 15,000 taels!
This auction not only became a good opportunity for everyone to publicize their reputation, but also made the reputation of King Xuan and Tong Xiaowu in the entire capital, and even the entire Xuanyuan.
As soon as the auction ended, the queen mother's bookkeeper announced that "a total of 1.38 million taels of silver were donated in this auction, all of which were put into storage, and when the time came, it will be used to build schools in Buzhou and Qinzhou......"
When everyone heard this number, they all applauded and expressed their satisfaction.
Tong Xiaowu and Princess Mu came to the stage to speak, and both of them had obvious meanings, all of which were used for school construction, and individuals would never use half of it.
After that, there was another riot, but it was only downstairs, and before the other party could act, it was controlled by the desireless people.
In this auction, King Xuan's reputation became famous, and what he did became a good story in the capital and even the entire Xuanyuan for a while.
Your Majesty, the Queen Mother was also shocked when she heard this.
That night, the emperor summoned King Xuan, and after carefully learning about the matter, he learned that the two of them had been doing public welfare since the beginning of their business.
Roads and bridges were built, colleges were established, children were allowed to study for free, and women's colleges were opened......
When the two of them didn't know that Xuanyuan Yuchen was the prince, they had the world in their hearts, and they didn't forget their fathers and fellow villagers when they were rich, can such two people not be liked?
As for the queen, I heard that the queen mother and the emperor sent people to the auction donation site to supervise, but she didn't move at all, and many people talked about herself at that time, and her anger rose.
Aren't the two of them doing too much, doing this kind of thing every day to show off themselves, aren't they afraid that others will not be used to it?
The empress's people convened a secret meeting again, and tried their best to suppress Xuanyuan Yuchen.
It's just that her plan has not yet been implemented, and various states and provinces have jointly reported to the emperor, asking the emperor to correct Tong Xiaowu's name and make her a concubine.
This is one of Tong Xiaowu's purposes, didn't the emperor dislike her for her low status, didn't he give her a title? Then she will push herself to a height, see how he still dislikes it?
And this process can also force the queen and others to be helpless, and the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and maybe some horse's feet can be exposed.
For a while, there was a cry in the court, and some ministers were still looking at the prince before, but now, more than half of the people standing behind King Xuan have reached half.
The matter of the title of Princess Xuan still needs the consent of the harem authorities, for the queen, she used to want King Xuan to follow Tong Xiaowu for the rest of her life, don't think about marrying the family of other ministers or the princess of which country? I am afraid that the power of my relatives will fuel his power.
I didn't expect it to be bad now, those women's power is not worth mentioning compared to Tong Xiaowu, even if some women have more eyes and a strong family background, they will not think of using auction donations to earn face for themselves and King Xuan.
Besides, Tong Xiaowu is not the only one thing she has done, Nan Rongguo's side, she has already won over her, and as far as the medicine is concerned, she is equal to all the power of Ning Yue.
Moreover, now many states and provinces have jointly signed a petition because of the establishment of schools, requesting that Tong Xiaowu be crowned as Princess Xuan.
Now I can't stop it if I want to, so many pairs of eyes are watching? Although the queen is unwilling, it is better to agree now than King Xuan who has Tong Xiaowu and takes other powerful women in the future.
The Queen Mother and the Emperor looked at the Queen and asked, "How does the Queen feel?" If you agree, then make a summons, it's a matter of course......"
"Yes, the emperor, the queen mother, and the concubines also feel that Tong Xiaowu has both talents and long-term vision, and can be the concubine of King Xuan." At this point, there is no point in opposing it.
Besides, the voices of King Xuan and Tong Xiaowu are rising, if she still fights with them at this time, she is afraid that she will steal chickens and rice.
And what the Queen Mother said is very right, Tong Xiaowu is already a matter of course, all the people who were not optimistic about her before have all changed, and it is normal to give her a concubine at this time.
I'm afraid that in this way, it will be even more difficult to kill the two of them.
No, she has to find a way, King Xuan is definitely the one who poses the greatest threat to the crown prince among the princes.
But it's not that it can't be eliminated, those princes, which one of them didn't abolish the queen's strength, but there is one thing that the queen is particularly concerned about, that is, ability, the ability of King Xuan and Tong Xiaowu is definitely above any prince, even the prince can't compare.
Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with the crown prince now, but he has nothing to do, I am afraid that if this goes on for a long time, those ministers will be able to come up with something.
Under the holy decree, the holy decree praised Tong Xiaowu, what has both ability and political integrity, virtuous and virtuous, great kindness and wisdom, loyalty and so on, and then said the key point, named Nanzhou Tong Xiaowu as the princess of Xuan, and held a marriage ceremony.
