Chapter 201 This is the most proud year of Emperor Jingxuan
Liang Wei had been staring at these children, hesitating whether he should propose to the emperor to bring these obviously talented girls to the capital for specialized education.
The Emperor Jingxuan, whom he was thinking about, was taking a sip of wine with his eyes slightly narrowed, looking very contented.
Although he was very tired after a whole day's work, his spirit was high. In the morning, he offered sacrifices to his ancestors, and finally he didn't have to apologize for his sins for a long time before comforting them.
In previous years, disasters occurred everywhere, people were displaced and hungry. He always reflected on his own mistakes first, asked for blessings from his ancestors, and hoped that the coming year would be good weather, good harvests, and peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
But this year is different. With the sky curtain, they know the existence of high-yield crops. So at the beginning, there was a moment of reflection during the ancestor worship, and then he enjoyed and planned for the future.
This year he also solved the problem of smallpox, a plague that had troubled many of our ancestors since ancient times. It was now completely eradicated during his administration.
Emperor Jingxuan has never been so interested in chatting with his ancestors as he was this year.
The officials below were almost unable to stand after such a long conversation, especially those from the Ministry of Rites, who were completely numb.
Your Majesty, the message on the blessing board is not written like this. Please don't express yourself freely, and you are taking too long to express yourself.
The officials under him really wanted to remind His Majesty, but Emperor Jingxuan didn't care. He was in a good mood, and the most strenuous project in the past had become his favorite, so he should at least experience it for a while longer.
By the time Emperor Jingxuan finally stopped, still reluctant to leave, half a day had already passed and the rest of the process had to be shortened as much as possible.
In the evening, after he had the reward dishes delivered to each mansion, he sat outside the palace with the concubines and royal family members to watch the fireworks.
Daqi’s fireworks were still very gorgeous. The Imperial Household Department had already customized fireworks in various shapes, not to mention dragons and phoenixes, there were also all kinds of strange and weird things that were dazzling to look at.
Once lit, the entire inner city was illuminated.
Emperor Jingxuan took another sip of wine and suddenly found that the fireworks on his side were more beautiful than those in the sky.
The fireworks in the sky were just lighting up the children's toys in the yard. From what they said, it seemed that setting off fireworks was prohibited in later generations?
Why is this?
Fireworks and firecrackers have the effect of driving away evil spirits. Does this mean that later generations no longer believe in the existence of evil spirits in the world?
Just as I thought of this, I heard the Queen Mother's voice behind me, "The Emperor really doesn't plan to appoint another Queen. I see that you have been treating Concubine Zhuang recently..."
Emperor Jingxuan was somewhat helpless. He did not want to talk about this topic, so he simply diverted her attention. "Mother, I heard that Miss Lin Lan rejected your proposal, and is she still planning to return to Huaiping County?"
The Queen Mother could not help but glare at him. Well, forget it, then don't say it. Anyway, now the court and the harem are more concerned about the celestial tent and the things inside the celestial tent. It seems that the ministers have forgotten about the topic of establishing the Queen.
She followed what Emperor Jingxuan said and said, "Yes, Miss Linlan is a person with ideas. I think it's a good thing that she has plans. This girl is growing very fast, just like Chaochao. Maybe she can really do something in Huaiping County."
"Really? Then I'll wait and see."
Beijing Post Station.
Lin Lan and his group were also looking up at the fireworks. They also received imperial gifts from the emperor today.
Others just felt honored, but Guo Xiucai was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
He knew very well that not everyone had the opportunity to enjoy the food on New Year's Eve. Only a small number of high-ranking officials had this honor.
Is this food? No, this is grace.
Mr. Guo ate so devoutly that when he was about to take a second bite of the food with his chopsticks, the dish had already been finished by others.
Guo Xiucai felt like the sky was falling and is still depressed.
Liangping asked him to come over to watch the fireworks, but he got no response after calling him twice, so he quietly asked others, "What happened to Mr. Guo?"
The others shook their heads. Dashan thought for a moment and said, "New Year's Eve is a day for family reunion. Maybe he is homesick."
"I miss mother too. I don't know how mother and younger sister are doing now." Lin Lan's eyes looked a little distant. This was their first Spring Festival after they separated.
Without the nitpicking of the old Lin family, their family of four should be able to live a happy and comfortable life.
Daya's eyes were a little moist, "I miss my parents."
After all, she is just a teenage girl. It’s her first time away from home so far, so how could she not miss home?
Grandma Zhou touched her head and said, "Your parents must be looking up at the sky just like us. We are looking at the same sky as them. We are not alone."
Yeah, they also have a canopy.
Chaochao in Tianmu was already tired from playing, and was running to Jian Yunsang. He sat down next to her, rested his head on her shoulder and planned to take a rest.
Jian Yunsang held her with one hand and looked at his phone with the other.
After dinner on New Year’s Eve, there was a continuous stream of phone calls and messages wishing everyone a happy new year. Not to mention her and He Nanzhou, even Chao Chao received several calls.
Jian Yunsang still has many students. Although she has not stepped into the campus for two years, the students she once taught still send her text messages of blessings during the Chinese New Year and other holidays in the past two years.
For example, now, she had just finished talking to Luo Yue on the phone, and Jiujiu immediately added her on WeChat.
She was about to open it when the phone rang again.
The caller ID showed that it was an acquaintance. Jian Yunsang paused, but still picked up the phone.
The other party said cheerfully, "Teacher Jian, Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, Principal Guan."
Principal Guan laughed and said, "From your tone, it seems that you are in good condition recently."
"I heard the news that Xiao Chaochao had been found some time ago, but I thought you must spend some time with the little girl these days, so I didn't come to disturb you. Today is New Year's Eve, and I still have to send you my blessings."
Jian Yunsang couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Just a blessing?"
"Haha, nothing can be hidden from Teacher Jian." Principal Guan laughed, "How about coming back to teach after the New Year? Our school is always open to wait for you to come back. Just ask for any treatment you want. I will do my best to satisfy you."
Although Jian Yunsang already had a hunch, he still hesitated when he heard Principal Guan's clear proposal.
She lowered her eyes and looked at Chaochao beside her. The little girl was sitting very close to her, and she heard everything that had just been said.
Seeing her mother looking at her, she nodded hurriedly and said softly, "Go, Mom will go."
These days, Chaochao has actually understood a lot of things. He knows that because of his disappearance two years ago, his mother fell ill and was unable to go to school to teach.
But her mother is obviously a very outstanding person, otherwise the principal would not have invited her again and again, and students like Zhou Ziyao would not still "respect" her so much after graduation.
