Chapter 337: Li Mao has an accident

At the same time, the woman who was learning the sword and gun with the big man also noticed the movement here.

"Your Excellency, you're back."

The women bowed to Chen Mu, their faces full of respect.

Seeing them like this, Chen Mu waved his hand indifferently and motioned for them to continue studying.

After seeing that the women continued to concentrate on learning the skills of dancing knives and guns, Chen Mu said to the female officials.

"How did you remember to teach these women how to dance knives and guns?"

"Lord Hui, this is not because there was a mess before, first a man led people to rush into our women's protection mansion, and then a county order brought people to find trouble."

"We had no choice but to come up with this idea, it is better to teach these women how to defend themselves."

"In this way, if someone rushes into our women's protection office in the future, these women will also have a way to protect themselves."

Chen Mu nodded when he heard those female officials say this, this is indeed a good idea.

"If any of these women are curious about learning and want to enter Beijing to participate in the imperial examination, they can also ask their husband to teach them knowledge."

"In addition, if any of them do not want to learn the craft of spinning and embroidery, but want to learn other things, they can also be given the opportunity to ask the husband to teach them."

Chen Mu thought about it for a while, and then ordered a few words.

The female officials responded when they heard this, and the reason why Chen Mu planned to do so was because the textile equipment had been sent to the capital.

It won't be long before the textile equipment is promoted, and the number of textile craftsmen and embroidery craftsmen in demand in Daxia will decrease.

When that time comes, only skilled people will be able to continue in this profession.

Craftsmen who are good at embroidery are better to say, after all, embroidery equipment is not so easy to study.

It is almost impossible to develop embroidery equipment that can replace human labor in a short period of time.

Chen Mu is also ready to let Li Mao and others pay attention to farm tools, and develop farm tools first, so as to ensure that farmers' income increases, farming efficiency increases, and farmers' lives are getting better and better.

In this way, the most basic livelihood problems are solved, and then we can consider the study of textiles, or other equipment for processing fabrics and crops.

As for these women, the women's protection government is now being promoted, and several very formal government offices have been set up.

However, there are still very few women who are willing to leave their families and are willing to go to the women's protection government after being abandoned.

The minds of those women are by no means so easy to change, and everything needs to be done slowly.

Thinking like this, Chen Mu stood in the courtyard and looked at the women and the big man who was a dart walker.

When it was getting dark, Chen Mu and Meng Qing entered the front hall and sat down, ready to see if there was anything else that could be arranged and adjusted in the Women's Protection Mansion.

The big man was a dart master invited by the female officials, and he looked quite rough, but he was very patient.

The dart master was kind-hearted, and when he heard those female officials say that this woman came to protect the mansion in order to teach these women martial arts and protect himself, he was quite enthusiastic, and he didn't even collect money.

When it was completely dark, the women also took their hands, and the dart master said hello to the female officers and left.

Chen Mu inquired about the cost of the women's protection mansion in the past few days, and was about to let people count it, when they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside the gate of the women's protection mansion.

He looked up in a daze, glanced in the direction of the door, and the next moment, he saw a figure push open the door and rush in.

This man was none other than his secret guard.

Chen Mu frowned, and when he saw the worried look on the dark guard's face, he was stunned.

He glanced at the female officials standing beside him, and when they saw this, they immediately nodded in response, turned and retreated.

The secret guard rushed into the front hall, Chen Mu asked people to close the door of the front hall, and the secret guard knelt down in front of Chen Mu with a thud and handed the letter to Chen Mu.

When Chen Mu saw the letter, he knew that something was wrong in the capital, he took the letter, frowned and opened it, and after a closer look, Chen Mu had a look on his face.

The situation in the capital is actually related to Li Mao.

Li Mao had arrived in the capital a few days ago, and according to Chen Mu's instructions, after finding the Ye family, the Ye family arranged a courtyard for Li Mao to temporarily house textile equipment and Li Mao.

When Li Mao first inquired about Chen Mu's identity with the Ye family, the Ye family still hid it and was unwilling to tell him.

Later, Li Mao and the Ye family became more and more acquainted, and when he talked about Chen Mu again, he saw that the Ye family was extremely cautious about Chen Mu's identity, and he also vaguely realized that things were not so simple.

Then after some temptation, Li Mao learned that Chen Mu was the crown prince of the dynasty, not a wealthy family.

After learning about this, Li Mao was frightened.

Thinking of his performance in front of Chen Mu, Li Mao felt uneasy, for fear that Chen Mu would return to the capital and blame him for his previous rude performance.

After the Ye family was relieved, Li Mao put his mind away, and then focused his attention on textile equipment and continued to improve textile equipment.

At the same time, Li Mao's news related to the textile equipment also spread in the capital.

Although the Ye family had the intention to conceal this matter, he didn't want it to be exposed.

But those high-ranking nobles in Beijing still found out Li Mao's identity and the equipment that Li Mao studied.

They even heard that Chen Mu was going to let people prepare for the study of the government.

As soon as the nobles in the capital heard about this, they blew up again, and in their opinion, the textile equipment was just a thing to fool people.

Because Chen Mu deliberately concealed the news, those people had never seen the fabric woven by the textile equipment, and they only thought that it was brought to the capital to fool Chen Mu, intending to change him for an official and a half-knight.

After hearing that the Lord of the Ye family was also involved, he also helped the young man with the equipment to arrange a place to live.

Many nobles from the family in the capital began to target the Ye family, intending to start with the Ye family and drive the young man out of the capital.

"But in the final analysis, because you are not in the capital, after Li Mao arrived in the capital, he has been living in the capital temporarily, and has not yet entered the court, and recommended the textile equipment to the ministers of the court."

"Therefore, even if those people have the intention to trouble Li Mao, they don't dare to do too much, after all, they can't be sure what you mean."

"The vast majority of the nobles of the family are just worried that Li Mao and the thing that Li Mao researched will take away their interests."

"After all, there are many noble families who still have textile craftsmen in their houses, and they want to use the expensive cloth imitated by textile craftsmen to make money."

"Lord Ye thought that those people would not dare to make a big move before you issued the decree, and they would not pose a threat to Li Mao, so they also relaxed their care for Li Mao in the past few days."
