Chapter 17: Delicious Fat Man
The first update
"Can the daughter go?" During dinner in the evening, Rong An heard his father talking to his mother about sending people to study abroad, and looked at his father busily.
"I didn't hear your mother say, it's a college graduate." Xianfeng glanced at his daughter, what does this have to do with them? It is not easy to pick out the best fifty people in the country, the main thing is how to make this matter a little simpler. As a result, he was interrupted by his daughter.
"But my daughter didn't even go to elementary school!" Rong An was in a hurry.
Rong An was taught in the most traditional way by the Confucian scholars in the palace, but this was different from the new system outside. Of course, she can speak English and French, she has learned from Qingyu since she was three years old, and now she can also chat with the wives of ambassadors. In terms of reading and writing, it is also okay, and she can read some simple fairy tale books. In terms of her language, she should be a little better than most of the current students, but she is a princess, and she doesn't let out the palace gate on weekdays, and she goes abroad, what do you think.
"This is a problem, although we Rong'an have learned well, but Xixi has also reached the time to go to school, but if you let the Confucians teach now, I am afraid that we will suffer in the future." Qingyu looked at her stupid son and looked at Xianfeng busily.
"Then we will run a royal primary school, and those surnamed Jueluo will all enter this school in the future." Xianfeng nodded and said casually.
"Only take Kyawluo?" Qingyu's eyes flashed, this is not a good thing.
Only those with the surname Jueluo are accepted, but there are eight Jueluo, like Chery is Jueluo, which is also known as the clan. And Xianfeng did this, but he raised the identity of the Jue Luo clan, and to a certain extent, he was slowly weakening the status of the Eight Banners in the hearts of the Manchurians.
In the future, except for the royal family, everyone else is nothing. The last time I got married, the Manchu and Han families had become a national policy. The Eight Banners system is slowly dying in name only.
The establishment of the Royal Primary School was actually to determine the aristocratic mechanism. The aristocracy is no longer a Manchu noble surname, but just these yellow and red belts running all over the streets.
"Failed?" Xianfeng smiled again and looked at his wife.
"There is nothing that is not done, just a signal, the people who could go to study in the study back then were the sons of Manchurian ministers, and it was more or less a chance for the princes to make friends with foreign ministers. Well, now, the royal family doesn't need the support of these people. Qingyu grinded her teeth gently.
"Of course not, I'm recruiting a co-educational school." Xianfeng smiled at Qingyu, this is the explanation, because our princess is also going, so there can be no foreign men here. Both have the surname Jueluo, and they are not married with the same surname, so no one will think much about it.
However, what Qingyu said is not something he hasn't thought about, but he can't say this. At present, there are not many powerful Manchu ministers in the court, mainly Hanchen, but recruit the sons of powerful people into the palace to accompany the prince to study, and let the sons of Hanchen enter the palace? Or let those Manchurian second ancestors take his son badly?
"Oh, today the concubine entered the palace and said that she missed her grandson, and asked the emperor to transfer the seventh master and them back to the capital." Qingyu remembered something and hurriedly said to Xianfeng.
Xianfeng smiled, the seventh master is now the real king of the Northeast, and even deters Mongolia, Xianfeng never thought of changing him, and now he is a little scared, so he is tempting through the mouth of the concubine.
"What are you laughing at?"
"It's really hard to say this, let him come back, I'm afraid that the courtiers will say that I have chilled the hearts of the heroes; But he was appeased, and even sent the concubine over, so that he had no scruples, but he was afraid that I should be cold. Xianfeng took a sip of soup and said coldly.
"Yes, but he's outside, just a semicolon shopkeeper, as long as the bookkeeper is your person, what can he do?" Qingyu chuckled, "And after the naval battle four years ago, I didn't seem to see any outstanding achievements in the Northeast. Why don't you let them do it once? The exercise between the Beihai and Jiangnan Navy Divisions was arbitrated by the Fujian and Guangzhou Navy Divisions, and presided over by the Ministry of War! ”
She may not be able to manage the country, but she is really not afraid of anything. For her, Lao Qi is the general manager of most of their group in Northeast China, and a general manager of most of them has a high salary, but the premise is that you have to bring benefits to the group, if you can't bring benefits, what does the group want you to do?
Of course, the point is that the Northeast sent Lao Qi to go, because Xianfeng had no one to send at that time, and he had to be obedient and able to suppress the people on the scene. The Seventh Master happens to be such a personal choice. Well, now that you've been away for ten years, your heart has begun to grow, and you can't use it regardless of whether you really do it or not. Anyway, the Northeast is also Chery's base, and over the years, Chery has never relaxed its containment of the Northeast, and transferred back to Lao Qi, except for finding a good reason, there is really nothing else.
"Good idea, let the Jiangnan Navy make a feint and see if they can defend it this time." Xianfeng understood what Qingyu meant, not to talk about anything else, a new military exercise, Beihai won, the seventh master has meritorious, and he will return to Beijing to commend him; Lost, go back to Beijing to explain.
Qingyu looked at her son, "Xixi, do you know what Ama and Eniang are talking about?" ”
"Mrs. Gui misses Uncle Seven, let Uncle Seven come back to see him." Xixi was a guest who followed Qingyu to meet in the afternoon, and he knew this.
"Stupid, E-Niang is asking you, Amma, what are they discussing?" Rong An glared at his stupid brother.
"I'm talking about how to get Uncle Seven back! If you let Uncle Seven come back like that, the officials are not satisfied, so you have to think of a way to let Uncle Seven come back. Xixi tried hard to swallow the large piece of sea cucumber in Xiao You's mouth before speaking slowly. After finishing speaking, he smiled sweetly at his parents, indicating that he was a good baby, and he had serious parents to speak.
"That's what Amma means?" Rong An was confused, although he thought about it seriously, it seemed to mean the same thing, but how could he say it from his stupid mouth since he was a child, it was so strange.
"Yes, the officials are so bad, they don't want to think about how pitiful Mrs. Gui is." Qingyu glared at her daughter and kissed her son's little face, this baby is really smart. How well summed up, it's still a piece of compassion. No one will say they're wrong!
Xiao Xixi nodded, looked at the dishes on the table, and still pointed to the fish maw, he likes to eat this, soft, QQ, but Eniang only lets people do it once a week, but fortunately, there are dishes he likes very much every day, and he looks forward to eating every day.
Mama Lin hurriedly grabbed another piece, then cut it into four small pieces, and then put the small plate in front of Xiao Xixi, and let him scoop and eat it by himself.
"So little Sissy can go to school." Xianfeng also smiled, looked at his son who was still eating seriously, and nodded helplessly.
Think about it, I can eat, I love to eat and I am blessed, at least this guy is in good health. When planting cowpox, the Western doctor said that there might be a fever, but Rong An and Xixi didn't say that they had a fever, except for Xixi's throat when he was injected, he really should eat and drink, and there was no reaction at all.
But to say that he is not smart, in fact, he is not, Qingyu has trained him to listen to people since he was a child, and he looks shy, but his brain is no worse than Rong An. It has just been proved that he is obviously eating seriously, and he should know a lot.
