Chapter 152: Repentance
The emperor had all hints, and someone immediately made amusement.
A minister came out of the ranks, bowed down and played: "Your Majesty, the ministers are shocked at what is inlaid in the window, it is as transparent as nothing, and the sight is not obstructed at all. It must be Your Majesty's favor from heaven that such a miraculous thing can appear under his rule. ”
The Emperor nodded when the echo below subsided slightly, "Well, I also think that my luck is really good. ”
Just like He Shouli thought, the glass sent into the palace by the glazed workshop, except for the queen's Fengyi Palace, used four pieces, most of the rest are installed in the emperor's daily living and office places.
In the past two days, as the sun can shine directly into the house, the emperor's mood is also extremely bright.
Now, with so many knowledgeable and interesting officials touting, the emperor can't find a reason to be unhappy.
Although the emperor knew that these officials were making sycophants, it was true that the glass did appear under his rule.
He doesn't know whether God favors him or not, but he is the first one who can enjoy the sun in the winter house.
Even if the emperor after him, and even many people in the Ming Dynasty can use glass, it will follow in the footsteps of Emperor Qingyuan.
The emperor said that he was lucky, that is, the prosperity of the country.
For a time, the ministers came up in a swarm to hold stinky feet, what political clarity, what people's well-being, such a miraculous thing fell from the sky...... And so on the touts poured out together.
Throughout the ages, flatterers have always eaten well, and even if they are not reused, they will never be disgusted by those in higher positions because of their pleasant words.
So many ministers praised the emperor for his wisdom and martial arts, and the ministers who advocated moderation have always been peaceful, and when this happens, it is inevitable that they will echo it.
The upright ministers have no choice, how can they not make the emperor think that they have an opinion on the emperor. While these people depressedly scolded those shameless licking dogs, they bowed down and praised the emperor and other excellent qualities that existed and did not exist.
Among them, the most depressed and reluctant look is probably Xia Bin, a scholar of Xia University.
This is in the court, in full view of everyone, if it is in his own house, he will let Xia Ke, a rebel, kneel directly in the ancestral hall and be punished.
He really looked down on the granddaughter in the second room that day and didn't like her to do business.
But he was talking about the pottery business, who would have thought that Xia Yanqing's first business was glazed gemstones, and he made a sky-high price.
That's it, even if it's sky-high glass jewelry, the left is just a shallow thing for the women in the house to show off, and when it comes to it, it's just to make more money.
But this is glass, completely transparent glass.
Out of the corner of Xia Bin's eyes, he could catch a glimpse of the light and shadow of the morning light slanting on the wall.
This glass is able to ascend to the hall of elegance, and the saint is not arrogant and lascivious today, and it is likely that the use of glass outside the palace is not restricted.
In this way, maybe it won't be long before all the rich families in the world can use this bright glass.
What a fame and fortune this is! It's not impossible to leave a name for the ages.
Xia Mingyu, a rebel, if such an important thing is attributed to the Xia family, the Xia family's family status will be preserved, and maybe it can go to the next level and surpass other families.
At that time, could the Xia clan still be able to do without the benefits of their father and son?
But he let his daughter take the fame away.
Women, after all, are going to marry, and they are from other families! In vain, he has read books for so many years, and he doesn't even understand this truth.
Scholar Xia gritted his teeth with remorse, and scolded Xia Ke in his heart. If he had known that Xia Yanqing was so powerful, why did he have to be in such a hurry to marry her into the Wang family? Let her stay in the old mansion, raise her well, and let her heart go to the Xia family.
He was so preoccupied here that he didn't even notice that the emperor had finished the annual summary report.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of gasping around him that his sanity returned to the hall.
He looked intently, and saw that the people around him were all looking at Zhan Kangwen, and his eyes were bursting with various emotions, including envy, jealousy, and hatred.
He Shouli saw it before, Zhan Kangwen's faint snort, and it completely bloomed at this time.
Zhan Xiangye was kneeling on the ground at this time to thank him: "Thank you Shengshang Longen, Weichen is not talented, but he just did what a minister should do." The voice was loud and full of energy, and the three of them gritted their teeth angrily.
Then Ning Guogong knelt down to thank him.
From the whispers of everyone, Xia Bin heard that the emperor gave the remaining eight pieces of glass in the palace to Zhan Kangwen and Ning Guogong respectively.
Although the reason for the praise is diligence, people all know that Ning Guogong just returned from the border pass this year and deserves the emperor's reward. But Zhan Kangwen's ability to win this honor is more or less related to this offering of treasures.
The emperor's next words were an understatement: "Zhan Aiqing and Deputy Lieutenant Shao of the Soldiers and Horses made it clear that this glass was a little rare at the beginning, and when it was fired more later, it would not be so rare." All Aiqing don't have to be discouraged, in my opinion, it won't be long before all Aiqing can use this thing in their homes. ”
Everyone rolled their eyes in unison, and bought it from the street in the future, can it be the same as the emperor's imperial gift? Moreover, it didn't take long for you to say, when was that, and there was a period of time when it was enough for Zhanfu and Ningguo Mansion to be envied by people.
This is the emperor's second mention of Shao Yi in the court. The young King Kangjun noticed this very sensitively, but he didn't dare to say anything.
"Dali Temple Shaoqing Xia Ke." The Emperor shouted.
Xia Ke calmly stepped out of the queue and bowed down and said, "Weichen is here." ”
"Xia Aiqing's family has a way, Xia women can give up the huge profit gem business, and focus on practicality, such a vision is really valuable. If glass can be widely used in the future, so that all our houses can have the sun shining in winter, I should praise the daughter of Aiqing. ”
"Thank you, Emperor Longen." Xia Ke was flattered and hurriedly knelt down and buckled his head.
The ministers and nobles in the hall discussed a lot, and their eyes kept drifting to Scholar Xia and Wang Tao.
The official next to Scholar Xia asked in a low voice: "The granddaughter of the scholar is so powerful and has a background in the bachelor's house, why do you want to join forces with Shao Yi in business?" ”
The other person couldn't help but speak: "Yes, why do you still have to show your grandfather to handle the treasures?" ”
Such a great benefit, but outsiders can go, and they feel sorry when they look at it.
These words poked at Xia Bin's sore spot, poking him out of breath for a long time, and he didn't know how to answer.
Wang Tao's expression looks good, and he is still the same as usual.
Although the Xia woman has made a profit from the glass gemstones, he has been accustomed to all kinds of probing eyes, but at this time he is still bitter in his heart.
The emperor praised Xia Ke for governing the family, so what about him? Of course, there is no way to govern the family.
Xia Yanqing invited himself to leave, although Wang Xi and Xu Qinghui played most of the role.
But he and the Yuan family really didn't think that it was only by seriously understanding the women of the Xia family that this situation was caused by this. not only lost the huge wealth and fame that had been obtained, but also was pointed out by everyone.
He asked people to inquire about people's private rumors, and many people said that he was not strict in governing his family, and the Xia family was talented and could not bear the contempt of the Wang family, so he resolutely left and returned home.
Those rumors who have always praised him for being talented and good at dancing with long sleeves are now gone.
Listening to the emperor's words, he understood the situation of the Xia clan very clearly. Since the emperor appreciated the Xia family and praised Xia Ke, he naturally had an opinion about him.
Wang Tao sighed secretly, and the sense of powerlessness in his heart was even worse. Who would have thought that the women of the Xia family had been living in remote countryside for more than ten years, and once they came back, they would shine brightly, and even alarm the emperor. ntent
