Chapter 114: Xu Gongling is very tired

A thousand female officers?

As soon as His Majesty said a word, the Qianqing Palace was silent.

Zhao Mingyin, who was blushing and red, was a little sluggish with his nephew robbing people, and now he has entered the wax moon, and the spring of next year will only be two months later, two months later, no, counting the distance, in three months, they will have a thousand female officials available? .

A thousand! A thousand! In the past, female officials in the palace were elected every three years, and only one or two hundred people could enter the palace in the end, and if you want to have a thousand female officials, you have to wait for more than ten years and twenty years, and now you can see people in three months?

Zhao Mingyin raised her head, only to feel that she couldn't understand her nephew more and more, at first, she thought that he was occasionally crazy and had to do something different from his predecessors, she was naturally willing to take this opportunity to make a name for the women in the world, let people know what women want to do, even if it is a state affair, it can be done, but since she became a scholar of the Duanji Palace, she felt as if there was a burning fire behind her, urging her, forcing her, and protecting her.

That fire seems to be her nephew.

Shen Shiqing didn't care about their surprise and silence, she wrote the general outline of the holy decree and handed it to Gao Wanxin on the side.

After lowering her eyes and thinking about it, she said to Gao Wanxin again:

"Write to the Cabinet and let them make a statute."

"First, all provinces in the world must have female officials enter the palace, and let them divide the thousand people into the quota of each province, which also lays a frame for the women's imperial examination in the future.

"Second, now that the treasury is richer than before, these female officials have to deal with their expenses for pen and ink, transportation and horses to Beijing, and food and housing expenses."

"Third, since there are many people who want it, it is not a serious imperial examination, and talents must be eclectic, good at poetry and scripture, good at arithmetic, astronomy, and martial arts, and if there are people who are very good at weaving, farming, and breeding, they must also.

"Fourth, there must be a special person to do it, and there must be special people everywhere to inspect it...... Xu Gongling, can you still send more than a dozen people? Since it is a selection of female officials, it is natural that female officials must also be inspected."

Xu Gongling had been bowing her head and quietly listening to His Majesty's arrangement, and when she was suddenly called, she raised her head, and only after a moment did she smile bitterly and said:

"Your Majesty, it's not a secret, if there is any woman in the palace who is literate and idle, it is only the queen's mother."

"Queen." Shen Shiqing supported her chin with one hand, leaned on the table and thought for a while, "Let the queen leave the palace......

Seeing that His Majesty seemed to really have a plan to let the queen out of the palace for inspection, the old and solemn Xu Gongling almost couldn't hold back:

"Your Majesty, it suddenly occurred to me that in fact, there are many erudite people in the various prefectures, and because of their status, they will not compete with the common people for the female official examination, but the edict itself is already an identity, so it is better to let them also run the inner study and the female school."

This is a method, Shen Shiqing nodded:

"The queen must come forward in this matter, and I will discuss it with her later."

Seeing that His Majesty didn't want the queen to leave the palace, Xu Gongling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

When she walked out of the Qianqing Palace, she touched the corner of her forehead, and under the official hat, she had a lot more gray hair.

In the past few months, she has had a much harder time than before, just as some female officials complained, in the past, managing classics and copying documents, she could not break a pair of shoes for several months, and now a new pair of shoes has been on her feet for less than a month.

These female officials in the deep palace were decorated at the beginning of entering the palace, and then sealed between the pavilions and pavilions, as if it was just another ornament between the towering palaces.

But they are shoes, and since they are shoes, who doesn't want to go further?

Looking up into the distance, there were a few crows flying by, Xu Gongling was dizzy by the tedious business in his head, but he couldn't help but think:

Where the crows could fly out of the palace, now we women can go too.

Several female officers left

, Shen Shiqing looked at a chicken standing on the side:

"Why did you go back to the palace? So what happened to Wu Chongmin?"

A chicken hurriedly replied:

"Back to the emperor, Wu Chongmin was assassinated on the way back to the city after leaving the barracks, and happened to be rescued by the Jinyi guard's people, and now the person is in the Jinyi guard's guard, and he has invited a famous doctor who is good at trauma to see it, although the assassin did not hurt Wu Qianhu's life, but cut off the tendon of his right arm with a sharp blade, and most of the whole arm is useless."

"Assassination? It's just this time?"

Yiji stood at the bottom, his tone was as gentle as ever, and there was a little sincerity and fear:

"Yes, the slave also thought it was a coincidence, and tried to catch up with the assassin on horseback, but after all, he couldn't catch it."

"Then you can see the man's face."

A chicken hurriedly knelt on the ground:

"Shame on the slave."

After speaking, he lowered his head and made a look of confession.

After a while, a voice came from behind the royal case:

"What you mean is that this murderer not only seriously injured Wu Chongmin, but also has superb horsemanship, can get out safely, and even has a very strong ability to hide his face, and no one can see his appearance clearly from beginning to end."

It was as if a gust of wind was crawling up the back of a chicken, and where no one could see, he closed his eyes and opened them again:

"Back to the emperor, it's true."

"Such a person, will it be a ranger who deliberately retaliates against Wu Chongmin for his misconduct, or is it ...... A private soldier raised in a certain high gate?"

Hearing the emperor ask like this, a chicken pretended to think before replying:

"Back to the emperor's words, the slave maid thought about this matter all the way back to the palace, with the assassin's ability, it should be a private disciple raised by a high-ranking family, and using such means to hurt people without killing people, most of them are to warn Wu Chongmin, and then force Wu Chongmin to withdraw from the left sentry camp, most of the people who will do this are because of empty salaries and other things to have some trouble with him."

At this time, Shen Shiqing had already lowered his head and looked at the twists and turns again, but said with a smile:

"It's hard to think about it so much."

A chicken crawled on the ground: "The slave and maid are not doing their job effectively, please punish the emperor!"

"What shall I punish you? That Wu Chongmin is greedy for people's lives and military salaries, I let you look at him and not let you protect him, he deserves to be cut off by someone, what is there to punish you?"

Shen Shiqing raised her head again, looking at the extremely deferential celebrant eunuch holding the seal, her heart moved.

"Yiji, you go to see the Shen family every day, what do you think of the people around her treating her?"

His Majesty changed his words abruptly, but the chicken with a ghost in his heart jumped more and more frightened, and he stabilized his mind a little, and then changed his usual tone and said:

"Back to the emperor's words, the slave maid herself is just a slave maid, I only think that Shen Niangzi has a degree, and she attaches equal importance to grace and power, and her subordinates are also loyal."

With a calm face, only a chicken himself knew that sweat was slowly flowing down his back.

Halfway through the water, it was wiped off with a handkerchief, and looking at the slightly pink color on it, Tu Nan put on his underwear without care.

Pei Feng, who gave her the medicine, frowned when he saw this:

"You'd better be careful, don't tear your wounds again."

"Nothing." Tu Nan pulled his hair together, picked up the wooden comb and combed it again, "Before it gets dark, I have to rush back to Yanjing."

In the end, they grew up together, Pei Feng couldn't bear her to run around with injuries, and persuaded her:

"Let's rest on the Zhuangzi for the night."

"No, the girl entrusted me with the affairs of the house, how can I not go back? You have guarded the Zhuangzi outside, and I have guarded the house inside, and when the girl comes back, we will do our duty."

"I've always been unable to tell you." Pei Feng sighed and took out another box, "By the way, a merchant from the south sent a letter this morning."

Tu Nan picked up the letter and opened it, it was just a few words of greeting, Tu Nan didn't care, she turned the letter over, carefully looked at the slender pattern like willow leaves behind the letter, and after a moment, she smiled:

"Chuiyun is going back to Yanjing soon."

"Weeping clouds?"

Pei Feng hurriedly stood up:

"It's been four months since you sent the letter, and she's finally back."

"yes, it's finally back." Tu Nan smiled, "I just hope she doesn't be scared when she sees our girl."

It is still unknown whether Chuiyun, who has always been relied on by Shen Shiqing, will be frightened by their current "girl", and Xu Gongling, who has only put his heart down for less than half a day in Xiyuan, is now almost scared to death.

"Let me be an inspector, I think I can do it, but I'm afraid that others may not think so."

Hearing "Zhao Surui" say to let him out of the palace, Lin Miaozhen directly slapped the book in her hand on the table and didn't read it, and she couldn't wait to fly out of the palace with wings:

"I don't want any queen honor guard, you give me a holy decree, a token, I go by myself, and I will definitely be able to do everything properly."

Looking at her appearance, Shen Shiqing, who was sitting on the couch, not only smiled, but picked up the volume of "Book of the Later Han" she was reading and read it herself, and said while reading:

"My good sister, you speak carefully, don't scare Xu Gongling into a bad place."

Xu Gongling is about to run out of trouble!

Looking at the Empress Mother who was already cross-waisted and ready to go out, and then at His Majesty the Emperor who was smiling lightly and blindly conniving, she suddenly sympathized with the three pavilion elders who were said to either lose their hair, have hemorrhoids, or drink fire tea every day.

She, Xu Xuan, was widowed when she was young, and entered the palace when she was middle-aged, and she thought that she would not be disturbed by her children and grandchildren in her life, how could she have thought that at such an age, the emperor and queen who were watched by her grow up would become a pair of bear children!

She, she, her!

"If the queen mother leaves the palace easily, not to mention how the court discussion boils, Weichen is afraid that the queen mother alone will not be able to explain......

As the queen's primary responsibility, it is still to honor the queen mother and manage the harem, and leave these two things behind, what kind of queen should the queen be? !

As soon as Xu Gongling brought out the Queen Mother, Lin Miaozhen really hesitated.

Shen Shiqing said slowly while reading: "It's not difficult, let's just say that the queen has a cold and has to recuperate in Xiyuan for a few days, as long as my sister can come back in time for the New Year, things can be covered up, and when the New Year is over, my sister can go out if she wants to, just don't delay the selection of female officials."

Lin Miaozhen looked at "Zhao Surui".

Surprised and delighted: "Your Majesty, did you really let me go?"

"I've already mentioned it, so I'm not kidding." Shen Shiqing raised her head, and looked at Lin Miaozhen, who was several times more vivid than before, with smiling eyes, "Sister, what I said in the past has always been counted."

Zhao Suqian died, and what he left to Lin Miaozhen was by no means only the cold moon and wine on the palace wall.

Lin Miaozhen used to commemorate him, and it can also be the footprints that have spread over thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

Just like the first time "Zhao Surui" said that she would be taken out of the palace to play, Lin Miaozhen looked at the young emperor in front of her in a daze for a while, and after a while, she said:

"Okay, I'll go."
