Chapter 350 Raising People is Like Growing Vegetables

The news that He Qiming and Chen Shu provoked Yan Yan at the entrance of Yipin Building and were taught a lesson in return soon spread among the onlookers.

In less than a day, everyone knew about it.

The news spread quickly, and the three giants in the palace naturally knew about it.

The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and shook her head gently: "The Earl of Yong'an has not chosen a successor."

Earl Yong'an seemed quite normal, so how could he have produced such an heir?

Even if you want to cancel the engagement, why don't the two families sit down and discuss it properly instead of using this method?

She had seen the child from the Yan family several times. He was good-looking and smart.

The He family missed out on this marriage engagement with the Yan family, and they must be regretting it to death.

Emperor Jingning looked at his potted lettuce with satisfaction: "The Earl of Yong'an is confused about the issue of training an heir."

The Yong'an Earl's Mansion was right to choose He Qiming as the heir at the beginning.

It’s just that the Yong’an Marquis’s Mansion did not do a good job in cultivating an heir, or rather, its efforts were in the wrong direction.

Raising people is like growing vegetables, just like the report submitted by Shen Huazheng.

The land for growing vegetables must be deeply plowed and carefully cultivated, and the seeds must be sown evenly.

Even when to water, when to fertilize, and when to expose the plants to the sun must be planned in advance.

These are all very important.

The effort required to cultivate an heir is no less than that required to grow vegetables.

To be honest, He Qiming is not as good as the potted vegetables he grows.

At least potted vegetables are both ornamental and edible, and some can be harvested multiple times.

He Qiming, however, only caused trouble for himself and the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion.

His biggest mistake was that he underestimated his own abilities and importance.

He was unwilling to assume the responsibility of the heir to the Yong'an Earl's Mansion and fulfill his engagement with the Yan family.

But he was unwilling to give up all the resources that the Yong'an Earl's Mansion had poured into him.

Before provoking Yan Yan, He Qiming did not consider his own capabilities.

Knowing that he couldn't beat her, he still wanted to humiliate himself.

He deserves to be taught a lesson.

The Earl of Yong'an had not taught him well in the beginning, and was unable to restrain him now.

He Qiming is confused, and Earl Yong'an is also confused.

The queen also took a sip of tea and said nothing.

She knew that His Majesty said this because he was disappointed with Earl Yong'an.

He Qiming could do such a foolish thing for a peasant girl today, and he could do something even more ridiculous tomorrow.

If after this incident, Earl Yong'an has not yet decided what kind of successor to choose.

I'm afraid that in Your Majesty's mind, he will also be equated with a fool.

The future path of promotion for Earl Yong'an will most likely not be smooth.

Emperor Jingning tapped the lettuce leaves with his finger and said, "This crop is growing well."

The Queen Mother also smiled and nodded: "The potted plants in my palace are growing well. I usually pick some and cook them. They are really delicious."

It turns out that the vegetables grown by myself are more fragrant.

Emperor Jingning looked at the tender green lettuce leaves in the pot and suddenly thought of another point.

Failure to choose a good successor may bring disaster to the family.

A small earl's mansion would be fine, but if the ruler of a country makes the wrong choice, it would be a disaster for the entire country.

Thinking of the prince, a smile appeared in Emperor Jingning's eyes.

Fortunately, the prince was well brought up and excelled in all aspects.

Emperor Jingning looked at An Desheng and said, "The clan school is also on holiday now, right?"

Although An Desheng didn't understand why Emperor Jingning suddenly brought this up, he still replied with a smile: "Yes, Your Majesty, the clan school will be closed today."

Hearing this, the Queen Mother and the Empress looked at Emperor Jingning.

In the past, whenever the clan school was on holiday, Emperor Jingning would assign homework to the prince himself, for fear that he would waste time.

I don't think you'll want to do that again this time.

Emperor Jingning: "Send someone to tell the Crown Prince that since it's a holiday, he should relax. If he wants to leave the palace, just send someone to tell me."

Children are like vegetables, you can't push them too hard.

Providing the prince with enough time and space will be more conducive to his learning and growth.

Queen Mother & Empress: ???

When did the Emperor/His Majesty change his temper?

Someone actually told the prince to relax during the holiday? ?

Under the complicated gazes of the Queen Mother and the Empress, Andy Seung took the order and left.

The Queen Mother took another sip of tea and said, "Emperor, the Yan family has been loyal and brave for generations. Why don't you give the girl of the Yan family some rewards that can help her survive, so that others will not dare to look down on her."

It is not easy for women, especially those who have broken off their engagement.

Even if the girl from the Yan family doesn't care, her future will be much easier if she can get the emperor's protection.

Emperor Jingning nodded: "What the Queen Mother said is right. The Yan family has been wronged this time and should indeed be comforted."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Fu standing beside him and said, "I remember there is a red tasseled spear in the storeroom. Ask someone to take it out."

Li Fu understood that it seemed that this red tasseled spear was going to be given to the girl from the Yan family.

Before he could speak, Emperor Jingning's voice rang out again -

"You will go to the Yan family later and convey my will."

The Yan family has made great contributions to protecting the country, so Yan Yan naturally deserves his reward.

Li Fu: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Although the girl from the Yan family cancelled her engagement with the young master from the He family, she received the red tassel spear bestowed by His Majesty himself.

This can be considered a blessing in disguise.

The Queen Mother picked up a piece of cake and took a bite.

"Emperor, do you know about the limited edition New Year gift packages recently launched in the food court?"

Emperor Jingning hummed, "I know."

Although he has not left the palace recently, there are still people who come to report to him regularly.

The food street has launched many New Year gift boxes, including melon seeds and nuts gift boxes, as well as various cakes and candy gift boxes.

None of this mattered, because he had already had people buy them.

The Empress Dowager and the Queen also have them in their palaces.

What people care about most is the gift package series, which includes the prosperity gift package, the good luck gift package, and the wish-fulfilling gift package.

Just hearing the name makes you feel that it has a great meaning and makes people happy.

All the Jingning Emperor items that can be bought have already been bought, except for the limited edition gift package.

The Queen Mother smiled and looked at Emperor Jingning: "Why don't we go to the food street with the Queen and the Crown Prince and draw a lottery at the same time?"

Emperor Jingning's eyes paused slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Some of the gift packs are limited edition and can only be won through lottery.

It’s just like when you drew a blind box of milk tea, whatever you draw is what you get.

Chen Huazheng had someone spread the news long ago that a certain number of these limited edition New Year gift packages would be released every day.

Only a few people can win the limited edition gift package, and most people get the ordinary one.

Because the lottery will last until the first day of the Lunar New Year, Emperor Jingning has never asked anyone to draw the lottery on his behalf. He just wants to find a day to leave the palace when he has free time.

Go and smoke it yourself.

However, although all the officials have already had their holidays, Emperor Jingning has not given himself a holiday yet.

Before Emperor Jingning could speak, the Queen Mother added, "Since you let the Crown Prince relax during the holiday, you should also combine work and rest, and not always stay in the palace."

Her son is just too hard on himself, and he can't figure things out, and he wants to be the best in everything.

The Queen also looked at Emperor Jingning, waiting for his answer.

Your Majesty has always been diligent and personally involved in everything, and has never had a real rest throughout the year.

Many times, she hoped that he could take a break and not be so tired.

Emperor Jingning thought for a moment and said, "I will listen to my mother."

The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this: "That's right."

Only with both hard work and rest can talent last long.

It's just a walk, the sky isn't going to fall.

When the prince on the other side heard the words sent by Emperor Jingning, he was stunned at first, and then he was ecstatic.

His father allowed him to relax during the holiday and wanted to take him to the food court!!

Could it be that Su Yongze had boasted to him about winning a big gift bag at the food court that day and his father had found out about it, so he sent someone to pass on the message? ?

Thinking of this, the prince couldn't stop smiling.

The emperor must have felt sorry for him because he couldn't leave the palace normally, so he took time out of his busy schedule just to take him to the food street to draw a lottery.

This time he must win the limited edition gift package and give it to his father and others.

Hehehe~~~

As soon as Li Fu came out of Yan's house, all the wealthy families in the capital got the news.

His Majesty sent someone to deliver a red tasseled spear to the Yan family for Yan Yan, and also praised her for being as brave as any man.

The person who delivered the imperial edict was Li Fu, An Desheng's apprentice.

For a moment, everyone was talking about it.

"Your Majesty, this move is to support the girl from the Yan family, and he even gave her a red tassel spear."

"I think your majesty is worried that some people will look down on the Yan family's daughters because the He and Yan families broke off the engagement, and will gossip about them behind their backs."

"Who dares to gossip behind their backs? We all know how He Da was dealt with. He is desperate to gossip about the Yan family. Besides, we all have eyes. He Da was wrong in this matter. If you want to gossip, you should talk about the He family."

"That's right. He Da's behavior was really unkind. He should have canceled the engagement, but he had to make things so ugly. Your Majesty's move was to appease the Yan family."

"That's because His Majesty values ​​her. Miss Yan is not the only noble lady whose engagement was cancelled, but she is the only one who was personally bestowed with the Red Tassel Spear by His Majesty and praised as a woman who is as good as a man."

"The Yan family has made great contributions to the country, and the girl from the Yan family has also been on the battlefield. Your Majesty naturally cannot watch her being bullied by He Da like this."

"A blessed girl will not marry an unblessed man. Breaking off the engagement is not necessarily a bad thing for the Yan family."

"You're right. Looking at the stupid things He Da did, you can tell that he is not worthy of trust."

"Whether the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion is a place without fortune is unknown at the moment, but Mr. He is definitely a man without fortune."

"That's right. For a peasant girl he had just met, he not only disobeyed his parents, but also broke off his engagement. That would have been fine, as the engagement had clearly been cancelled. He then brought the peasant girl to cause trouble for Miss Yan, so he deserved to be punished."

"It is said that all the descendants of the Yan family are strong and skilled in martial arts. He Da is courting death by provoking them."

"I happened to be at the scene that day and watched the whole process. It was really exciting. When He Qiming took out a knife and tried to stab him, Miss Yan broke the blade directly."

"Oh my god, this is amazing."

"I didn't know about this at the time, otherwise I would have rushed there no matter what. Alas, I missed it in the end."

"Not necessarily. Who knows, He Da might come to ask for a beating. Then we can watch another show."

"He Da probably wouldn't dare to do that. He was so scared that day. His hair crown fell to the ground. He looked so embarrassed."

"Now that Miss Yan has received the imperial red tassel spear, if Earl Yong'an has any brains, he will not let He Da and Miss Yan appear in the same place. Otherwise, he will not only anger the Yan family, but also His Majesty."

"Yes, after all, His Majesty has already made his position clear."

*

Just when everyone was discussing the affairs of the He and Yan families, He Qiming came to the Yong'an Earl and his wife and once again proposed to marry Shen Shu into the mansion.

He Qiming and Chen Shu were both frightened when they were insulted by Yan Yan in the street that day.

I don’t know if it’s because they both suffered the same misfortune, but after they came back, their relationship seemed to have warmed up a lot.

All He Qiming is thinking about now is marrying Chen Shu into the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. He wants to be with Chen Shu for the rest of his life.

Yong'anbo took a deep breath and said, "Is this what you want to say to us?"

Lady Yong'an looked at He Qiming with some disappointment and did not say anything.

That day, He Qiming was sent back home, and the Yong'an Earl and his wife learned the whole story.

Considering that He Qiming was injured, Earl Yong'an did not scold him immediately, but instead found a doctor to treat him.

But who would have thought that the first thing he did after getting out of bed was to propose to marry the peasant girl again.

Not to mention whether the peasant girl is qualified to be He Qiming's legal wife, the engagement between the two families was just cancelled not long ago. Wouldn't marrying the peasant girl at this time be a slap in Yan Yan's face? ?

He Qiming: "Father, mother, I only want to marry the one I love in this life. Please help me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Earl Yong'an slapped He Qiming hard in the face with his backhand.

"You are such a rebellious son! Not only are you extremely stupid, but you also have no sense of responsibility."

Yong'an Bo had practiced martial arts since childhood, and he used all his strength in this slap, which was hard and solid.

He Qiming's face was hit to the side and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He Qiming's right face was swollen and his ears were buzzing.

He looked at Earl Yong'an in surprise, totally unable to believe that he would be beaten.

"Father, why..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the angry Earl Yong'an.

"Why? You still ask why?"

Yong'an Bo stared at He Qiming with a look of disappointment: "You are unwilling to bear the responsibilities of an heir, so why do you want the benefits of an heir? Since you are not satisfied with our arrangement, you should come to your father instead of looking for Yan Yatou!"

If the Yong'an Earl and his wife wanted to give He Qiming a chance at the beginning, they are now completely disappointed in him.

They don't understand why the son they raised with all their heart and soul has become such a selfish, short-sighted and irresponsible person.

He Qiming was stunned. He didn't understand why Earl Yong'an reacted so strongly this time.

Lady Yong'an: "Yu'an, do you know that His Majesty also knows about this now?"

He Qiming shook his head in confusion, he didn't know.

However, he also didn’t understand what His Majesty’s concern had to do with him marrying Shen Shu.

Earl Yong'an picked up the teacup and drank his tea, not wanting to say a word.

It is really a misfortune for the family to give birth to such a foolish eldest son.

Lady Yong'an sighed in her heart. It was okay. This was how her son turned out.

Wanyu is right, she still has two sons.

"That woman is not worthy of being the wife of the eldest son of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. She can be a concubine at best."

He Qiming was stunned and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Lady Yong'an glanced at him and said, "If you don't agree, you can leave home. Then we won't care about anything you do."

He Qiming was shocked. Leaving home meant that he had to sever ties with the Bo family! !

He looked at Earl Yong'an, who was still drinking his tea and had no intention of paying any attention to him.

He Qiming bowed angrily and said, "I will obey my mother in everything."
