Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Thousand Words
In fact, there are mountains, water, flowers are quiet and elegant, in addition to a bad reputation, it is like a paradise.
Mu Bingyue, who was nearly fifty years old, swarmed into this place as calm as a hidden peach orchard, although it attracted the attention of the aborigines, but they didn't care too much about them, and they only nodded kindly when they passed by, and then went to work on their own work.
The Imperial Nunnery is not only allowed to live for women, because the people here have special status, and they will be equipped with certain guards and miscellaneous servants.
However, there is a royal dignity here, if there are concubines who are indecent, the nine ancestors will be connected, so no one dares to easily get involved in the law.
Along the way, most of the women who came and went were thirty or forty years old, they were not wearing nun clothes, they were all wearing some ordinary women's clothes, but they were not too luxurious, but they were all light and elegant, and they were very suitable for the surrounding environment, and they were very pleasant.
The scenery inside is also very pleasant, the courtyard is scattered, there are mountains and rivers, flowers and trees, and the air is fresh and fragrant.
After walking and stopping, they finally came to an uninhabited water pavilion.
As soon as Aunt Chen saw this, she fell in love with it.
A small three-storey building built on top of a lake. The house is empty, the five pillars stand on top, and the clear water gurgles by. The hooked cornices, the green and green bamboo, and the finely carved eaves and panes are full of fresh air.
There are several rows of nanmu trees planted on the periphery of the house, exuding wisps of fragrance and refreshing people's hearts.
On the right side of the lake, three small pavilions stand on top of the stone bridge, and the structure is well-proportioned, bright and light. The long causeway in front connects the "Huanbi" on the left, the "Ruyizhou" in the middle and the "Moonlight River" on the right.
The green trees are misty, a layer of light mist arises on the surface of the faint lake, and gradually rises upwards, and spreads out to the surroundings, the surrounding trees, buildings, platforms, pavilions, Xie and other scenery looming, illusory glances, like a fairyland, the world is independent.
The scenery here is unique, fresh and elegant, but I don't know why it is uninhabited?
Mu Bingyue slowly walked down from the bamboo and rattan chair, and with the support of Aunt Chen and Xiangzhu, she slowly admired it.
Mu Bingyue couldn't walk around on the ground for many days, and everyone was very happy to see that she was willing to move, especially Xiangzhu, who cried happily.
After Mu Bingyue entered the house, the first thing she did was to write a letter of peace to her family and ask Xiangzhu to send it in person.
The Mu family, with its ups and downs, and she can't afford to be sick, she is already worried when she comes to her father. Fortunately, my grandfather's side was also released under the amnesty, and I think they should know more about it this time.
It is said that no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. Mu Bingyue originally thought that when she came to this poor and remote place, no one would care, but she didn't want to come in for more than ten days, so Situ Qing and Xia Lanxin came to visit together.
is a guest from afar, Mu Bingyue naturally waits for good tea and water.
It was also more than ten days away from the palace, and they thought that they had only cleaned up for a few days before rushing to see her. This situation made her no longer hypocritical, so in order to receive these two VIPs, she personally made many desserts that are popular all over the world, such as puddings, milkshakes, egg tarts and many other sweets that make girls crazy.
This time, Xia Lanxin came to visit Mu Bingyue and did not bring Xiaoyun, and later saw that Mu Bingyue was a little uneasy, so she had to tell the truth, it turned out that Nangong Chen took it away when he left the palace for the imperial patrol.
After hearing the news, Mu Bingyue only paused for a moment.
After listening to some of Lan Xin's situation, it was better for Xiaoyun to follow Nangong Chen.
In the following conversations, Mu Bingyue had gradually figured out the contours of the situation.
However, it is really a coincidence, the owner of the two couplets in Mujiazhuang's rice shop has been friends for a long time, but this time he was selected to accompany him in front of the holy car, and now he is the second master that Nangong Chen relies on the most.
And their first thunderbolt attack is not to balance power, but to strengthen the weak branches, protect the country and the tree has deep roots, at this time it will undoubtedly shake the foundation of the country, if you use him at this time to eradicate all the rest of the injustices, and the first to bear the brunt is the five kings who are unwilling to come down steadily.
Horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and the five kings have been recruiting soldiers privately since the high price of Mujiazhuang was enough for food, called miscellaneous guards.
When Mu Bingyue thinks about it now, she always feels that this fact is her mistake, and it is not strange that ordinary people and wealthy businessmen will deposit silver in Yinzhuang, but how can Wang Sun Guixuan, who has soldiers and guards, not use the impregnable 'vault', and go to other houses to idle and make that little money.
This time, it seems that she is really raising tigers.
Now that it is impossible for Xuanyuan to fight again, if the five kings take this opportunity to raise troops, and then the country will change hands and blood will flow like a river, it will really be her sin.
Thinking of this, Mu Bingyue couldn't help but make up her mind, she originally wanted to find an opportunity to transfer the things she had written to Grandpa Cao, but now she thinks that it is more appropriate for Linghu Xia and Wang Yuan, who have been by Nangong Chen's side for a long time, although everyone knows about her as a goddess, but Wang Yuan will not tell him her true identity, but with the identity of the goddess, she will not attract too much attention from others if she contacts Wang Yuan and his wife who are with the Mu family rice shop to give food and porridge.
So she wrapped up the manuscript she had just finished recently, handed it to Situ Qing, who had married Ling Hu Xia, and asked her to transfer it to Wang Yuan's wife.
The matter of the establishment is still unsettled, she has to give an explanation to the Queen Mother, and she must be worthy of her 'pay'.
If you want to cut the power of the vassal king, the materials in all parts of the court must be absolutely guaranteed, and the five kings of silver are there, but silver does not represent food, and now it is the second autumn harvest, take precautions, and the grain is still well controlled.
The five kings have soldiers, but which soldier is not a butcher's knife for his family? Therefore, if you want to dissipate the power of the five kings, you need to start from the roots.
If people can slow down, they will find that they are all walking in a cycle, for the sake of their families have to pick up killing, and when the other party also starts to kill for the same reason, people have to put up protection, in order to better defend, they will not give the court a good excuse to collect taxes everywhere, here life and life are linked to each other, when the country's court is corrupt and ambitious, the people have already been exhausted by it, and when the national strength is not good, the country will collapse, and it will be annexed by other countries. And those who win breed even greater ambitions, and the war of annexation will go on forever.
Under this bloody step, people never seem to look back, maybe just unintentionally, maybe powerless, but in this vicious circle system, the bottom is countless people, and the people at the top of the pyramid who use their lives and everything to support are also following the rules of this system.
Everything seems so ridiculous, but everyone in the world is still blindly following it.
She may not be able to change the rules of this world, but the perception of people's minds, she is confident that she can still influence them.
The Central Plains has been invaded by countless foreign powers, but those invaders will gradually be assimilated by the culture of the Central Plains, so a unified ideological understanding will definitely play an absolute role in this system.
However, at this time, she did not want to shake any communism, after all, utopian ideas are obviously unrealistic in this world that is still full of gunsmoke. What people urgently need now is nothing more than food and clothing, although there is a huge difference in cognition between her and the two generals around Nangong Chen, they are still on the same path, and the goals they want to achieve are the same.
They are cutting the power of the domain, and she is a child of a poor family to integrate into the high-level, thus giving the enduring fortune a strong impact, letting the world know that fate is not predetermined, and knowledge will change one's own destiny, and it can also change the fate of others.
At this point, I believe that many people will reach a consensus with her in the near future.
Poor soldiers can only be ruthless, civil rule will stabilize the country, and the people will be noble and light, so as to open up the prosperous era.
Although this dissent will affect the monarch's centralized power, she believes that with his wisdom, he will only seek common ground while reserving differences, and will never erase them all.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the New Year's Day.
At the happy palace banquet, it was very lively, and there were several people around, but Nangong Chen still felt that he was lonely, without her existence, his heart was like missing a corner.
Although his eyes were still on the dancing singer, his heart had already drifted uncontrollably, thinking about what she would be doing at this moment?
As soon as the New Year's Festival passed, a manuscript began to prevail on the market, which can be said to be recited by everyone, just because the book that rubbed this book clearly said that if anyone can find the book that does not reach the meaning, or the sentence does not make sense, as long as it is pointed out, it can get a hundred taels of gold, and when the book began to prevail, the price was increased to a thousand taels. It can be described as a thousand words, but no one has found it so far, but the students have not given up, and they have gathered together in twos and threes to discuss secretly.
Over time, many schools of thought were formed, each with its own opinions, and its eyes were taken away from the typo, and the arguments in the text were discerned.
In the long run, the first thing that will be shaken is the system of recommending talents to serve in the imperial court. When the people's voices for this became higher and higher, Nangong Chen opened the first case and began to formulate the imperial examination system.
Most of the people serving in the imperial court are high-ranking families, and most of them are cronyism, that is, they are determined to cut the feudal domain and consolidate the imperial power, and Nangong Chenzi also wants to cultivate a group of people who are loyal only to themselves.
After the New Year, just when Chiyan was in full swing to carry out reforms, Xuanyuan suddenly reported the news that Emperor Xuanyuan had died and his only son had ascended the throne.
Since then, Chiyan has been relieved and has begun to make drastic innovations.
After the imperial examination system began to be implemented, the people's voice began to officially embark on the road of martial arts and cultivation.
At the same time, Nangong Chen implemented a series of enlightened statecraft, unswervingly focused on supporting and promoting agriculture, boldly cut officials and reassured the people, selected talents without sticking to one pattern, and humbly accepted advice, so that Chiyan embarked on a road of rapid development, and a prosperous picture depicted with blood and sweat began to show in the vast land of Chiyan, which had been full of disasters and difficulties.
