King Yong waved his hand and said: "The palace sent a doctor, a gynecological holy hand, to live in the mansion." I prescribed a prescription for recuperation, and even spit out the decoction together, but I couldn't make up for it at all. ”

Qin Yu had no choice but to persuade: "The little emperor's grandson should come at the right time, it must be God's favor for His Royal Highness, and God will bless the princess's mother and son." ”

King Yong said: "The imperial doctor said that the delivery date should be in June, we simply wait a little longer, and when the emperor and grandson are born, they will be like my father and the emperor will report auspiciousness, and I want my son to become the biggest auspicious man in Daqi." ”

"Your Highness is wise." Qin Yu first agreed, and then asked hesitantly: "Can ...... What if it's not the emperor's grandson? Do you want to report auspiciousness? ”

King Yong sprayed directly: "Then report a fart auspicious, you and I will wait to die in this fiefdom!" ”

……

Zheng Ge Lao once again returned to the dormant state of few words and laughter, Wu Jun rarely came to the cabinet, but Wu Qi often circled around the Wenhua Palace, the General Administration Department and other places, like a vicious tiger patrolling the territory.

Zheng Qian grew under his nose, taking advantage of his mother's illness and wanting the lives of his father and son, which made him angry, but his father repeatedly ordered him not to act rashly, so he had to suppress his anger and try to stumble Zheng Qian in the dark.

Zheng Qian is a Tai Chi veteran, and he will declare his suffering, and he will be like a wronged child daughter-in-law all day long.

At a court meeting, even the emperor hinted that Wu Qi should not go against Zheng Ge anymore! But he didn't know how to restrain himself.

On this day, he met Shen Yu in the cabinet and blocked his way.

Shen Yu bowed, without a trace of wrinkles in his official uniform, with a signature smile, and asked neatly: "What does Elder Xiaoge have to say?" ”

Fellow officials cast curious or worried glances at them.

I saw Wu Qi smile coldly: "Shen Siye, I heard that King Qi has always been dissatisfied with his father?" ”

Shen Yu said: "The old Xiaoge said that he laughed, King Qi once praised Yuanfu Gong for his loyalty to the country in front of His Majesty, and he is a tool of the society, I don't know who dares to spread rumors and make trouble, and divide the monarch and ministers?" ”

On the surface, this is to praise Wu Ge Lao, but secretly he is warning Wu Qi that King Qi is King Qi after all, don't forget the distinction between monarchs and ministers.

Wu Qi's gaze became more and more gloomy, but Shen Yu blocked him speechless with one sentence, and said that everything would be true, so he had to change the conversation: "I heard that you are a seven-year-old poet, and your fame is greater than that of the governor, but coincidentally, there was such a prodigy at the beginning of the country, and he was killed at the age of not being confused, and he froze to death in the edict prison." ”

Shen Yu's face was unchanged: "So, the lower officials never dared to call themselves prodigies, but the person who killed the prodigy was punished for rebellion a year later, and was sentenced to Ling Chi, and the elder of the small pavilion should not be compared to it." ”

"You ......" Wu Qi said coldly: "I want to see how you end!" ”

After that, he brushed his sleeves away.

Zheng Qian came from behind him: "Why do you have a verbal dispute with him? ”

Shen Yu said: "Even if the student keeps his voice down, he will not be immune from retaliation. He's already crazy, so just let him go a little crazier. ”

Now that the two sides have started a frontal war, spraying each other is also a problem, Wu Qi is now stepping on the emperor's limit of patience and jumping back and forth, what a good opportunity, of course, to help him.

After chatting about business, Zheng Qian asked him, "Where is your little leather monkey?" It seems that I haven't seen each other for a while. ”

Shen Yu smiled: "It's a scourge at home." The student is going to Guozijian today, and I don't have time to take him. ”

Zheng Qian bowed his head and reminded in a low voice: "Recently, I still don't take him out, either at home, or send him to the palace to stay." Wu Qi is a madman, I don't know what crazy things he will do, after all, the Qi Wangfu is guarded by guards, and it is safer than other places. ”

Shen Yu's face sank, although Wu Qi had not yet reached the point of desperate betting, but he still had to take precautions, he bowed deeply to his mentor, and thanked him for his careful reminder.

Today, the Hanlin Academy is closed, and the palace does not have to go to class, but he has a lecture in the Frank Hall in the afternoon, teaching problem-solving ideas to the inmates who will participate in the autumn festival in August.

Shen Yu wanted to take Huai'an with him and stuff him to the hall to listen, but he didn't come with him when he shouted that he wanted to take a vacation yesterday. He seems to be particularly concerned about the matter of vacation, shouting every day to ask for a double day off, I don't know where the idea came from, Shen Yu has read ancient books, and there is no such precedent.

However, seeing that his son's homework has been done well recently, it happened that Huaiming Huaiyuan was also on vacation today, so he was still generous and gave Huai'an an one more day off.

The words were divided into two ends, Huai'an took Chen Yong's cousin to the children's library in Haojia Hutong and met with the prince here.

Chen Yong saluted Rong He with an ignorant face, Rong He grabbed his arm, and said quite enthusiastically: "Huai'an's brother is my brother, and good brothers don't like this!" ”

Without saying a word, he took Chen Yong's arm and walked towards the door of the children's bookstore, Chen Yong was even more confused, pointed at himself and went straight to Ronghe, looked at Huai'an, and his expression seemed to say: Am I familiar with him?

Huai'an only laughed helplessly at the back, this guy is a tiger, but he is self-cooked, and the cute cousin is most afraid of self-familiarity......

He followed him into the courtyard and looked around, and the courtyard wall had been repaired and had been raised by half a foot.

In the courtyard, the bricklayer was changing the floor tiles, and the newly bought floor tiles were stacked in the corners of the walls, covered with tarpaulins to prevent rainwater, and Huai'an took the trouble to inspect them - in fact, he didn't understand anything, just pretending.

When the craftsmen saw that they were three children, they ignored them and continued to work.

Changxing came out of the main house, he had been at the construction site for a long time recently, like a monkey rolling out of the soil, grinning and greeting Huai'an and his party: "Childe, He Gongzi, young master cousin." ”

Behind him, two small servants were cleaning up the old furniture, and the tables and chairs with missing arms and legs were simply dismantled, stacked in the corner and ready to be used as firewood, cleaned up in good condition, and piled up in the wing room waiting for handy.

Huai'an climbed the steps and greeted with a smile: "Not bad, everyone has worked hard, finish the work in advance today, and each person will be given an extra dime of silver as a reward!" ”

Everyone cheered: "Thank you, little boy!" ”

At this time, no one treated him as a child.

"That's right!" Huai'an said to Rong He: "I gave myself a vest number, called 'Xu Sanduo', and I will use this name outside in the future." ”

Rong He thought it was very interesting, the vest number, just like the nickname of the rivers and lakes: "Then I will take one too...... My mother's surname is Liu, then my name is 'Liu Doujin', and I am making money every day! ”

"Good name!" Huai'an praised.

Chen Yong frowned when he heard this, what is this......

Just as he was embarrassed to grind a hole on the ground with his toes, he saw two friends looking at him in unison.

Full of anticipation.

Chapter 84

Chen Yong squeezed out a reluctant smile: "It's not very necessary......

Huai'an said very seriously: "It is necessary! Cousin, you're a scholar, and the vest number is very necessary! I remember my cousin's surname was Wang. It's called Wang Shancai, how about it? ”

Chen Yong: ......

Rong He cheered and shouted, "Huai'an, you are so talented! Wang Shancai, we will be brothers in the future! ”

Wang Shancai... Phew, Chen Yong refuses in his heart! But before he could open his mouth, he was hooked by Rong He's neck, and he walked out.

"Again...... What are you going to do?! "Chen Yong has a feeling of being robbed on a thief ship.

"Go to the outskirts of the city and see if there are any homeless people who don't want to return to their hometowns, and recruit a few guys to come back." Rong He said.

Huai'an arranged for Changxing again: "Go to the street to buy a batch of bedding, pots and pans, and go home to collect a batch of clothes, not too good, just clean." ”

When I came to the front yard, I saw Uncle Hao basking in the sun in the yard, and he shivered in the cold spring......

It's not that he wants to stay outside, it's the two mothers-in-law who are cleaning up his house and not letting him in. Huai'an arranged for him to move to live in the wing room of the second courtyard, firstly, to vacate the inverted seat room for the guys to be used as a dormitory, and secondly, the wing room had good lighting and lived comfortably.

The little guy dared to touch his things before, and he took a broom out of it, Huai'an couldn't help it, so he borrowed two stout mothers-in-law from his mother early in the morning, and threw the dry old man out of the house in three or two clicks, and kindly threw him a broken bamboo chair.

Uncle Hao didn't have any ruts at all, staring at the two bulging eyes and sitting on the bamboo chair sulking.

Huai'an saw that this was okay, and he was busy putting a quilt on the old man from the house, so that he could sulk warmly, but don't freeze out of the cold.

Uncle Hao stared at Huai'an like a copper bell in his eyes, and suddenly burped.

Rong He felt that the old man was strange and interesting, and stepped forward to greet: "Uncle Hao, have you eaten breakfast?" ”

Uncle Hao tilted his ear: "What...... The daughter-in-law ran away with someone? ”

Ronghe: ......

"Don't make trouble, where is the daughter-in-law of the child's family?" Uncle Hao said with a smile.

"I'm asking you, are you too late for breakfast?" Rong He's voice was three points higher.

"What...... What, my daughter-in-law is about to give birth?! Uncle Hao looked at Rong He with his eyes in his eyes, and was surprised: "Young man, it's not big, it's something." ”

Rong He glared: "I ......"

Huai'an almost went crazy with laughter, even Chen Yong was trembling, Rong He rolled up his sleeves and bared his teeth to fight with the old man, kicking his legs and being pushed out by the two friends left and right.

"What's the matter, I'm in a hurry." Uncle Hao smiled behind him and said, "Young man, I just can't hold my breath." ”

"Don't stop me, I'm going to deduct his wages!" Rong He puffed.

"Okay, okay, don't be like the old man." Huai'an smiled: "Our bookstore still counts on his handiwork, as long as he lives well, he can do anything." ”

With that, he stuffed Ronghe into the carriage.

The duke put away the pestle and ordered the coachman to set off, followed by two palace guards in civilian clothes on horseback.

The porridge factory outside Yunqingguan is still crowded with displaced people, they are waiting for the spring to return to their hometowns, and the weather is a little warmer and they will embark on the road to return home.

But unlike usual, they were not queuing up to receive porridge today, but gathered under the courtyard wall of Yunqingguan to watch a notice.

Someone in the crowd pushed out a teenager and said, "Xiwazi, you are literate, you come to read it to everyone." ”

The young man was swarthy and thin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, stood at the front of the crowd and read aloud:

"Recruitment notice, the bookstore in the city plans to recruit two workers, one or two per month, and the young and strong are preferred; There are ten printers, one or five dollars per month, two apprentices, one tael per month, and those who are literate and hyphenation are preferred. Three meals a day, arrange accommodation for family members, interested parties please enter the temple and turn left to the temporary registration office to register. ”

After a brief silence, the crowd rioted, and everyone stumbled to discuss the contents of the notice.

"I know what a printer is?" Someone asked.

"It's the one who prints books." There is humanity.

"Books?" There was another round of discussion among people, most of whom had only seen a yellow calendar in their lives.

"Do you need to recruit special workers for book printing? Is the salary still so high? ”

"Of course, books are valuable. Liao Xiucai's family in the town has a lot of books, and when my father worked as a long-term worker for his family, he just dried the books for two whole days. ”

"Huh?" Everyone turned their heads to each other: "So many! ”

The old man who had just pushed Xiwa out took advantage of the chaos to pull Xiwa and said, "Quick, child, you are literate, go in and ask." ”

Xiwa said: "But...... I want to go home. ”

Another uncle persuaded him: "Your father and mother are gone, such a long way, even if you can go back alive, how will you live alone in the future, you come to this house as an apprentice, you have enough money and salary, this is God to give you a way to live!" ”

Xiwa was pushed out by the villagers, and turned back to the gate of Yunqingguan step by step.

The old man waved his hand at him and urged: "Go, go!" ”

An awning was erected in the courtyard, and more than a dozen young men were already lining up in front of the recruitment booth of the laborers, and the playboy and two guards were selected from them.

Behind the table on the other side sat the three of Huai'an, selecting men and apprentices, because literacy was required, and after a while, five or six people came.

Rong He took out a text and asked them to read it, and readers who could understand it fluently could stay, without requiring them to know too many words, but after all, if they had to deal with books, they would definitely not be able to do it blindly.

Xiwa cautiously walked to the table and finished reading a passage fluently. Once upon a time in their village, there was a family member who was doing business abroad, and he donated his school field and village school for the children of the clan to study, and he was fortunate to study for the longest time, until his hometown was in drought and fled with his parents.
