Chapter 334: Enlightenment

Yun You asked Mei Ruoxue how she was?

  The human, "It's a peaceful one, the queen said that Qinggui is the first of all the 'expensive', when she chose a concubine for the thirteenth master, it was also the queen who took a fancy to the girl of Liu Shilang's family, and her subordinates thought that the queen's vision was good." ”

  Yun You was silent for a while, and she didn't know what she thought, and smiled, "Sure enough, like things gather, what she likes are girls from reading families." ”

  The man thought about it and said with a smile, "What the prince said is, who made the queen's father and younger brother both Tanhua?" Now, Uncle Guo is also going to marry, but he is the daughter of the general's family, and he is talking about it in private, and I don't know if the son born in the future is still not the material for studying. ”

  "Who's to say it isn't? Look at the Najia family, the hairpin family, which one is studying? The result? Who else can compare to Uncle Guo's study? ”

  "That's what the prince said!"

  Supervising the river works is a chore, but this time the river governor is Gimpo again, and he is a person who is extremely unofficial at all. Yun You made a special trip to inquire about him before he came, and his evaluation of him was not high, but his ancestors were dealing with river workers, and his arithmetic was very good, and he was familiar with the flow rate of the Yellow River water every year during the flood season, and wrote a book "The Way of the Yellow River", which was used to build embankments, plug mouths, repair dams, and dredge as the policy of river governance.

  Yun You read this book, who knows, but he only knows a little about it. When he got here, Yun You walked on the embankment of the Yellow River, and he realized how difficult it was to work on the river. And Gimpo, who was measuring the water level of the Yellow River at the time, saw him come to the prince of the county, and he didn't even salute, but only raised his head from the water and glanced at him.

  Gimpo is the person brought out by Yun Zhen, who spent a lot of time on the river, and suddenly raised Gimpo, a little-known person, and now supervises the river workers. Yun You thought it was this reason, but later learned that no, Jinpu was bent on the river work, and Yun Zhen, the Bole, was nothing more than that.

  Such a person can be reused, Yun You thinks to himself, if he is replaced by himself, he will never be able to do it.

  At the end of November, Yun You returned to Beijing, first went to Jingde Palace to report on his work, after speaking, Yan Duo came, saying that the Queen Mother invited the emperor and the prince of Ningjun to go over for dinner, "The queen mother also said that she specially asked the cook to make the favorite chicken and chestnut of King Ningjun." The chestnut has been kept from the Mid-Autumn Festival to the present, so that people deliberately hide it and keep it fresh. ”

  Yun You's mood was extremely complicated, and he followed behind the emperor. When I arrived in the palace of the Queen Mother, I saw a young girl here, about sixteen or seventeen years old, born dignified and graceful, quite temperamental, serving on the side, generous and polite, and not the twisted look of the nobles he often saw.

  Yun Zhen didn't look at the woman for a long time, and the queen mother specially explained, "Today, your aunt Wang sent Sister Yin in, and fought with Brother Xun in the queen's palace, but Brother Xun didn't let it, and the queen couldn't send Sister Yin over, and it happened that this girl was there, so I said that I asked her to help me watch Sister Yin'er, so I stayed here." ”

  The queen mother smiled at the girl, "You should go out of the palace first, the two of them are here, and you are not comfortable here." ”

  "Yes!"

  The girl bowed generously and went away with a smile. Yun You saw it, and felt that this girl was comfortable to look at, and she understood a little in her heart, so she simply asked, "Whose girl is this?" Look at the queen mother is very happy. ”

  "It's the girl of the Mei Hanlin family, if the fourth child thinks it's good, how about being a princess for you?"

  Yun You said with a smile, "The queen mother is in charge, but this is what people listen to, and when the son has not grown up, he will marry for the first time." ”

  Yun Zhen laughed and said to the Queen Mother, "This time, the fourth brother has made a great contribution to the river work, fortunately, the fourth brother is here, how many ghosts and ghosts have been suppressed, and the son has not yet figured out how to reward the fourth brother." ”

  Yun You hurriedly got up and knelt down, "Your Majesty, it's all for the country, if the emperor has to say a reward for this small merit, how can the ministers dare to take errands in the future?" ”

  The queen mother hurriedly said, "Brothers work together, their profits are cut off, and the family will not say this." This girl, if the fourth child thinks it is good, I will make a decree. The queen said that this girl is very eloquent, but she really didn't expect that our family could marry a talented girl to enter the door. ”

  Yun You couldn't help laughing, "What is the queen mother?" Could it be that our family can't marry a talented girl? How many talents, the carp jumps over the dragon gate in order to become a protégé of the Son of Heaven, let alone a talented girl! ”

  "The fourth brother's words make sense, the queen mother doesn't know, the queen studied under Mr. Shen with her son back then, and later made a good poem, but she has always been humble and low-key, and the queen mother didn't know her name."

  Yun You asked, "Your Majesty, I heard that there was a poem about chrysanthemums back then, called "Ask Chrysanthemum", signed as Huiyin Concubine, but it was actually from the hands of the queen's mother, but is there such a thing?" ”

  The Empress Dowager was surprised, "Oh? ”

  Because of the passage of time, they are not outsiders, and Yun Zhen does not hide it, "That's the case, it was passed on by the little prince of Rongguo, and the queen was particularly angry because of this, and then the girls of Rongguo Mansion held a poetry meeting again, and she did not participate again." Over the years, I haven't seen her display these talents, but I have been urging Brother Shun and Brother Xu to study every day, and I realized that although she didn't lose what she learned back then, she was indeed a talented girl! ”

  The Queen Mother nodded and said, "It is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, but in my opinion, this is not the case." It is true that women do not study, and for men, ignorance is also good for ignorance, and they have no ambition and are dedicated to men. But there are also disadvantages, this is a mother, if you are still ignorant, it is not good to raise children. Even if the son is raised by the father, how can the mother ever let go, it must be a lot of intervention in the maids, servants and servants around the son, but these people are the most able to instigate the master, if they don't know the favor of people, they will definitely be miserable, and how many people have been so bad since ancient times. ”

  Yun Zhen and the others have never thought about this matter, but the two of them have come this way since they were children, and when they think about it at this time, they can't help but feel palpitations. Especially Yun You, thinking of the two concubines, who are getting older and older, and there is nothing outstanding, on the contrary, they have revealed the deeds of the gentlemen, so he said, "What the queen mother said is very true. ”

  Since Yun You had already seen this Mei family girl, and felt that it was appropriate, the queen mother said, "Feng family girl, fortunately, she did not leave a sister-in-law, although she had, and she was not the same heart as you, although she offended the queen, but they were all a family, and gave birth to a concubine, just detain her in the house, and there is no need to hurt her life. ”
