After the holy decree was prepared, it was sent directly to Zhuangzi by Gonggong Jin.

Du Jinning was still watching the harvesting of rice, and when he heard that there was a holy decree, he couldn't help but be stunned for a while when he heard that she was going to be named Dasi Nong.

At the beginning, she told Qi Bokun and Yuan Xiuzhu that she wanted to be a big Si Nong, but because she wanted to study and promote high-yield rice and express her ambitions to the two old men, she just said it casually, instead of really wanting to be in the position of Da Si Nong.

She is not an ignorant child, how can she not know that a poor child, no matter how smart and capable she is, if she wants to be a third-grade official of Dasi Nong, she has to work hard all her life, and she can't even think about it if she is less than forty or fifty years old? But can she dress as a man for the rest of her life? It's simply impossible. So this ideal can only be an ideal.

didn't expect that at the age of nineteen, and after she recovered her daughter, she could really become a big Si Nong.

As calm as she is, she can't help but feel the urge to cry.

She knelt down and sincerely expressed her heart to the holy decree: "The minister must live up to the emperor's kindness, bow to the end, and die." ”

Gonggong Jin handed the holy decree to her, waited for Du Jinning to get up, and smiled and congratulated her: "Congratulations princess, our family has to call you Lord Du now." ”

The eldest princess is a first-rank jue, Dasi Nong is a third-rank official, and Du Jinning has not been promoted. But there is still a big difference between a fictitious title and a real job.

An eldest princess, courtiers will treat her with courtesy because of their reverence for the royal family, but it is impossible to really talk about how to respect each other. If the eldest princess really wants to be rude to the courtiers, the emperor will definitely reprimand and punish the princess in order not to chill the ministers, instead of punishing the ministers.

But Du Jinning, the big Si Nong, is different, she really became this official with her own ability, and the ministers can feel uncomfortable because she is a woman, but they definitely don't dare to be rude to her in person, and they don't dare to say more strange things behind her back.

If you have the ability, don't eat the rice researched by Du Dasinong, and don't grow high-yield rice in your own fields!

If you are not convinced, you can also research rice with a yield of eight or nine stones per mu, squeeze Master Du from the position of Dasi Nong, and show that you are a big man who is better than her!

If you can't do it, you hold it. Do you dare to be rude and say strange things behind your back? Why is the face so big?

This kind of awkwardness, helplessness, and faint admiration is not only in the hearts of the officials of the Ministry of Industry who heard the holy decree, but also in the complex mentality of the ministers who came out of the palace one after another after the dispersal of the dynasty.

"Alas, in the future, do we have to stand in the court with women?" A minister was not convinced.

Another minister thought about it: "In the Tang Dynasty, there were still women sitting on dragon chairs and men standing respectfully under the hall. ”

These words made the other party speechless.

Someone next to him spoke: "Regardless of men and women, as long as you have the ability, it's nothing to stand in the court." The eldest princess's ability, we can't be convinced. Look at the performance of the group of people in the Ministry of Works after her disappearance, and then look at the eldest princess, who is a person with real skills. Anyway, the eldest princess is standing in the court, and I am convinced. ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the news that Du Jinning became the great Si Nong was brought by the courtiers to the yamen, and such a dialogue was staged in various yamen.

This is also the Tang and Song dynasties, relatively open-minded, with little restraint on women, and Wu Zetian set a precedent and became a female emperor. Now that Du Jinning is beating an official of the court with his strength, everyone happily accepts this fact after a while of awkwardness.

It was Hong Huazhong who returned home and told the old woman of his family about it, and he was also very emotional, and suggested: "In the future, the girls in the family, don't just learn some things such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, let them read more books and broaden their horizons." I don't expect them to really go to the court to be officials, at least don't be short of parents every day, and their eyes are staring at this acre and three points of land. If you have a broader horizon and a larger pattern, even if you become a mother in the future, you can cultivate excellent children. ”

Mrs. Hong agreed: "During this time, the eldest princess of the country Lu has been running a women's school in Zhangluo, do you think you are sending the girls in the family to study?" ”

Hong Huazhong nodded: "Studying is naturally good." But you have to inquire about the ethos of those female students first, and who is the gentleman. Don't get there, just learn to be competitive, small-bellied. In that case, it is better not to go, and ask the two old gentlemen to take lessons at home. ”

"Okay, I'll send someone to inquire." Old Madam Hong said.

Thinking of Du Jinning's matter, Mrs. Hong was very interested in her, and said, "Old man, I am very curious about this eldest princess, and I really want to see her." ”

She didn't say this because she felt that she was amazing, she wanted to see Du Jinning, and she didn't want Hong Huazhong to invite people to her home, but out of helplessness.

Du Jinning became the eldest princess of Ningguo, except for the day she was sealed, she was led by the Empress Dowager Zheng to meet some high-status clan nobles, and when she got married, she was sent to the princess's mansion by the clan nobles with a hijab, and she never participated in any banquets at other times. She originally participated in the imperial examination as a man and served as an official in the court, she was young, talented, and outstanding, the men in the officialdom in the capital knew her, but the female dependents did not have the opportunity to see her.

Her story is so legendary that the women are so curious about her. Not to mention those noble girls, now even Mrs. Hong and these old ladies want to see her.

Hong Huazhong shook his head: "This is not easy to do. Now is the time for high-yield rice, she has to do business, but she doesn't have time to get to know you. ”

Seeing that his wife was disappointed, Hong Huazhong came up with an idea: "But it will be the emperor's birthday in a few days, and the emperor plans to take this opportunity to treat us old ministers." Officials and edicts of the DPRK and China are among the invitees. Although the princess was appointed as the chief Si Nong, it was not good for her to sit with us male ministers at this banquet, and she would definitely have to accompany the Queen Mother. Won't you be able to see her then? ”

Mrs. Hong was immediately overjoyed: "This dare is good." She stood up, "No, I'll have to pick out my clothes." ”

Hong Huazhong was speechless.

Seventy or eighty, what kind of dress up. Not to mention his wife, even if he called his most proud granddaughter back to dress up carefully, even if Hong Huazhong wore a filter, he couldn't say with a clear conscience that he was better looking than the eldest princess of Ning Guo.

Du Jinning's place, the double robbery in the field naturally did not need her to be present to watch, Song Zhuangtou They are all used to doing farm work, and they have planted a few seasons of hybrid rice, so they don't need to be instructed to do things, and there are four officials from the Ministry of Industry and Yao Shuqi watching from the side.

So Du Jinning is very busy on the surface, but he is actually quite idle.

She also knew that the noblewomen and ladies in the capital were very curious about her, and on the day of Zhao Mei's birthday banquet, she dressed up carefully and entered the palace in a carriage with Qi Muyuan.
