In the end, the queen was a little embarrassed, "The emperor is tired, the concubines have already prepared dinner, let's eat first." ”

Gu Zhi looked at her in some surprise, but he felt that this was the attitude that the queen should have, the performance of the queen who had just come to Kunning Palace...... Probably because he thought about it too much, he also nodded.

The queen first stood up and served Gu Zhi, and pinched a few chopsticks of what he liked to eat, and Gu Zhi also tasted it with a face and spoke skillfully.

"The queen doesn't have to serve, sit down and eat together."

The two of them had a dinner silently and wiped their mouths, Gu Zhi looked at the queen still with her head down, silent, and opened her mouth to make a sound.

"Recently, there have been some problems with the accounts of the harem, and the concubine is trying to tell the emperor."

Gu Zhi opened his mouth, but nodded after all, "Take it!" ”

"The cost of the palace this month is 15,000 taels more than last month, and the concubine feels that something is wrong, so she specially brings the account book to check, except for the cost of charcoal fire in winter, and the clothes spent on making furs.

The cost of Liu Guifei's palace alone was 5,000 taels more than last month, and the concubine sent someone to ask, saying that Liu Guifei was afraid of cold in winter, and the charcoal fire in the palace was lit overnight.

He even ordered people to light charcoal fires next to the flowers in the palace, saying that they would let the concubine enjoy the fun in her spare time, which was too extravagant, and asked the emperor to decide. ”

Gu Zhi frowned, but he didn't know what he thought, "Speaking of which, the concubine's fear of cold is also because of me...... A little charcoal silver is not too expensive, so let her be. ”

At the beginning, Liu Guifei blocked the arrows for the emperor, although her life was saved, but since then she has fallen into a problem of being afraid of cold, and Gu Zhi can't help but be extra tolerant of her whenever she thinks about it.

The queen secretly clenched her hands in her sleeves, still persuading without giving up.

"There is a fixed number of charcoal in the palace, because the concubine is afraid of the cold, the concubine adds fifty percent to her every year, but now the charcoal fire spent by the concubine is twice as much as that in the queen mother's palace......

If this precedent is set, everyone in the palace will inevitably follow suit, and extravagance in the palace will also cause a trend among the people. Now that the drought has just passed, rumors have spread, I'm afraid it's not good, the concubines want to reduce half of the charcoal fire in the palace, what does the emperor think? ”

In fact, what the queen didn't say was that the amount used by Concubine Liu not only surpassed the queen mother, but also surpassed her.

Gu Zhi frowned and waved his hand impatiently.

"The queen is in charge of the harem. In that case, let's all follow the rules...... It's just that Ling'er, this girl, is also afraid of cold, she is still young now, and she is easy to get sick if she gets a little cold, and the charcoal fire is used by her, and the queen mother is there.

The extra cost comes out of my inner vault...... She is the princess of Zhengyipin, with golden branches and jade leaves, and she deserves this charcoal fire. ”

The queen nodded a little embarrassedly, and she understood the weight of Gu Hui in the emperor's heart, thought of the problem that the master came to her to reflect, and felt that she was a righteous queen mother, and she should be advised, so she also smiled.

"The concubine knows that the emperor loves Changning, and this girl has always been sensible, but now that she is getting older, the eldest princess has not gone to the palace to study a few days ago...... The master of Gongxue and the concubine discussed, and the concubine thought that she should also teach Changning some female workers, so she would put down her homework first, and after all, she would become her own son in the future. ”

In fact, there was no such thing as palace learning in the past, and the previous dynasty paid attention to the virtue of women who were not talented, and there were even princesses who didn't know how to read.

The founding emperor was greatly surprised, and bluntly said that the golden branches and jade leaves could never be big and could not read a single word, so he established a palace school.

When the princess reaches a certain age, she will go to the palace to learn enlightenment like the prince, at least she must have a certain amount of literary accomplishment, but there is no time limit, she has always come and gone at will, and it is very easy to ask for leave.

As long as the master of the palace school has taught to read and write, everything will be fine if he can memorize some verses, and if the princess is interested in reading, she can continue to study.

The eldest princess likes poetry and books, and she studied until she was 15 years old, but because she was still old, she was pulled by a pure noble concubine to study female work in the palace, saying that she was ready to get married.

Seeing that Gu Zhi was silent, he just wiped his mouth with his hands, and the queen's eyes turned and made persistent efforts.

"The princess is a little too lively on weekdays, and a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and the emperor gave her a fish festival charm, so she often goes in and out of the palace, and the influence of the girl's family is not good after all......"

Smack-

Gu Zhi slapped the handkerchief on the table, raised his head, and looked at the queen seriously.

"I originally thought that the girl was making a big fuss, but now it seems that someone has indeed suppressed her nature, and my daughter is a golden branch and jade leaf, and she can't do anything she wants.

Taizu laid down such a big country, not to let the descendants bend over to live, my existence is to give them the confidence to be free and easy, the queen herself is virtuous and virtuous, and there is no need to force my daughters to be like this. ”

Gu Zhiteng stood up suddenly, didn't give the queen a look, and walked out of Kunning Palace like this.

Su Lide had been guarding the door, but when he saw the emperor walking out angrily, he followed in confusion.

"Your Majesty, where are we going next?"

Gu Zhi stood in place at this time, and was also a little stunned, if he remembered correctly, this was the first time he came to the queen's palace and left, not being called by Liu Guifei to leave, but walking away by himself.

He and the queen ...... When did it become like this?

"Go to Chuxiu Palace! Let's go back to the Diligent Palace. ”

After all, the queen is the mother of the prince, and the relationship between husband and wife for ten years is not in vain, today he left the queen's palace but went to other places, which was a slap in the queen's face.

If it is passed on to the former dynasty by some good deeds, it will cause everyone to speculate about the prince.

After all, it's not just that hairy boy, he can't do things completely according to his own preferences, but Gu Zhi can't pull off that face and go back, just commanded.

"Tomorrow, you can choose some good things to send to the queen, about the frugal expenses of the harem...... Let her come. ”

Although Gu Zhi feels that it is better to be blocked, now that the country is safe and secure, the tax revenue received by the treasury every year is also increasing, and there is no need to save these tens of thousands of taels of silver in the harem, but the queen, as the master of the harem, still has to give her this face.

After all, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, feeling aggrieved and panicked, Gu Zhi thought about it.

"The palace study has stopped now, and now the prince is still studying, you go to Fengyang Pavilion to pass on my order, and authorize the third princess to study with the prince...... Tell the girl in private to work harder and not to lose my face.

After the New Year, the palace school has started, if the eldest princess still wants to study, even if she goes, my daughter likes to read but can't read, isn't it a joke? ”

Su Lide lowered his head and responded, knowing that the queen mother had provoked the emperor, and she wanted to be a virtuous queen, but she was disgusted by the emperor.
