Chapter 473: The Qiu Family
After Fang Yu's narration, Qingrong and Yanwei also had a lot of information in their minds for a while.
After the surprise, there was only a sigh.
After all, in this harem, in order to protect themselves, who doesn't have a disguise.
But this has been sighed, except for arranging manpower early and being on guard, nothing else can be done.
And in the Fengxuan Palace at that time.
The queen also rested and held a cup of hot tea.
"Niangniang, the list of selected show girls has been redrafted, take a look, which teachers and grandmothers are sent to their houses to teach?"
Minth brought a brand-new booklet, and the ink on it was good, and it looked like it had just been delivered.
The queen glanced at it and said in a deep voice.
"The Qiu family and the Xu family have high official positions, so they choose the two oldest grandmothers to go, and the rest can be arranged casually, these grandmothers have been in the palace for many years, and the rules will not be wrong."
"Yes." Min Si nodded, and finally said, "There is one more thing about the slave maid, Miss Luo and Miss Wang are not from the capital, they are now temporarily living in the inn, and it doesn't seem appropriate to let Mama go to the inn to teach." ”
Hearing this, the queen thought for a moment and said.
"It's not a difficult matter, the Lu family has a lot of mansions in the capital, let the mother of the palace arrange a suitable one, let the two of them live for a while, they live together, just send one grandmother to teach together."
For the Lu family, it is indeed a trivial matter.
And doing so can be regarded as a kind of grace, and it can also win people's hearts by the way.
Although the queen does not ally with the concubines below, it is always good not to make enemies.
After docking the matter, Min Si immediately went to arrange it, and then Zi Tianmo spoke.
"I don't know how to decide the positions of these five new concubines, Niangniang didn't make a decision, she wanted to wait for the emperor to come back, right?"
The queen bowed, "Although the emperor has a slight explanation, but the palace is still good to wait, first draw up the position and put it, if the emperor can come back in time, he must always show the emperor." ”
This is indeed the case in the rules, after the queen sets her position, she will hand it over to Pei Yao to see again, and there may be changes.
"What do you think, Miss Xiaoqiu, what position should I give?" Timmo was a little curious.
There was also a dark light in the queen's eyes, "According to her family background, she shouldn't be high, but her appearance is really outstanding, and it doesn't hurt to lift up such a beauty." ”
Hearing this, Tian Mo knew what to expect, so he nodded and didn't ask any more.
And Pei Yao, who was mentioned by the queen at that time, was investigating the case in the north.
The reason why the northern students made a fuss this time was because they found that the northern families had contacted the powerful in Beijing and used their power for personal gain, making it easier for the children of the high families to be admitted to the examination, and encroaching on the rights and interests of the poor students.
In the past, although the spring and autumn examinations were to be taken in Kyoto, the next level of examinations were taken in various prefectures.
It was during this exam that local officials assisted in the fraud.
Leaking questions, marking test papers unfairly, and even substitute exams.
is to push up the group of children of rich families who have no real talents.
Although it is clear here, the last spring in Beijing may still be brushed down, but there is still room for operation.
If you can do one, count it as one.
This group of them is not for the sake of gaining a high level of fame, but for entering the office, as long as they become officials, there is also a place where money can do things in the officialdom.
And their monopolistic operation will obviously make the group of poor scholars with real talent and real learning squeezed out of the quota, after all, according to the rules, the number of people admitted each year is also limited.
This group of poor students who have been squeezed down are obviously good at learning, but they can't even pass the exam in this state, so they are not qualified to go to the capital to participate in the final selection, which is completely unhuman.
Ten years or even decades of hard work, but as a result, naturally some people are angry.
The students from several northern states joined forces to make trouble, but there was also a lot of movement.
Now I took someone to the north to investigate, and sure enough, it was so.
"Send this letter back to the palace to the concubine, and send back the set of sapphire heads and faces I asked you to buy yesterday, as well as those special products."
Pei Yao pointed to the letter on the table and commanded in a deep voice.
Hong Zheng nodded, and asked again at the end.
"Where is the queen mother, do you still send things?"
When he mentioned this, Pei Yao also thought about it, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, and then bowed his head.
"According to the things given to the concubine, add thirty percent, and send them back together."
"Yes, the minion will do it."
Hong Zheng bowed his eyes respectfully and withdrew.
After he left, Pei Yao's complexion did not improve at all, and he asked Fuxi to guard the door again, and called Ye Yunxiao with a message.
"I have something for you to do." Pei Yao got straight to the point.
Ye Yunxiao arched his hand, "The ministers listen to the emperor's orders." ”
Pei Yao bowed, handed her a piece of paper on the table, and said in a deep voice.
"The people on this list, you go to find them for me, and inquire them one by one, you have to do this quietly, and you can't let others know, remember?"
Taking the list handed over by Pei Yao, Ye Yunxiao glanced at it, and immediately frowned a little, and nodded with a straight face.
"Obey the order!"
Capital.
For the happy event of being chosen, the Qiu family has been lively all day.
In the evening, after seeing off the guests, Qiu Shaojia and his family sat down to rest.
"Now that you have been selected, it is a great joy for the family, but I don't know when this part will pass the decree, presumably Ming'er's grandmother who teaches etiquette arrives, and it should be brought together."
Qiu Shaojia's mother, Li, happily mentioned it.
Her father Qiu Huan was serious, "I don't think so, the emperor went out of the palace to tour the north and hasn't returned yet, and the queen mother will probably not advocate alone, but Jia'er entering the palace is also intentional by the emperor, and her position will not be lowered." ”
Listening to his father's conversation, Qiu Shaojia also bowed slightly.
"What my father said is that my daughter can have today, all thanks to the careful teaching of her father and mother, and when she enters the palace in the future, she will not forget her father's nurturing grace, gain a good foothold in the palace, and glorify the lintel of my Qiu family."
"You kid, what kind words do you say, my mother just hopes that you will be well, whether you are favored or not, as long as you are safe." Lee's eyes were full of tenderness.
Qiu Huan said, "Jia'er is ambitious, this is up to me, but I have already done it as an official, you are now married to the emperor, and our Qiu family is also a relative of the Son of Heaven, presumably the emperor will not treat you badly, as long as you fight for your anger and give birth to the prince as soon as possible, there will definitely be a high position, and in the future, you can also pull your brothers." ”
"Yes, my daughter remembers." Qiu Shaojia nodded obediently.
But after a pause, he said, "It's just that Daddy, this time I didn't expect that Qiu Juan to be selected, my daughter originally made some calculations, but unfortunately told her to hide, my daughter felt that she must not be as weak and bully as she was on the face." ”
Hearing her say this, Qiu Huan's face also sank by two points.
"They're just side branches, and finally got a little errand official from the Ministry of Rites, living a life uneasy and stable, to mix in these, okay, you don't have to worry, my father will take the time to beat them, let that girl enter the palace, listen to you."
"Daddy Xie is planning for his daughter."
Qiu Shaojia pursed her lips and smiled, with a coquettish posture.
Qiu Huan looked at this concubine who had always called him proud, and he was also satisfied, and his face softened.
"Okay, as long as you remember to be a father, you must be cautious after entering the palace, if you really can't be favored, don't do anything wrong, even the family, the Yang family of Nanning Houfu who has just disappeared is an example, our Qiu family has no unfaithful ambitions, just want to be rich and safe in the next few generations, if you have a great creation, it is naturally good, if not, you can get a concubine in peace and stability, and it is enough to carry the Qiu family men."
"Yes, my daughter remembers."
Qiu Shaojia lowered his eyes.
But she said so, but in her drooping eyes, it was clear that there was ambition. (End of chapter)
