This year's Lunar New Year is late, and it got quite warm after the holiday.
Sheng'an is currently very busy with the imperial examinations!
Pingkangfang was especially busy!
They weren't worried before the exam, especially since there were many talented women in Pingkangfang, including two famous ones recently.
At Qing'e Palace, everyone is busy with spring plowing.
The sun has been shining brightly these past few days, and the soil is drying everywhere.
Guo Qi entered the Eastern Palace, but he really didn't know where he was.
It wasn't until I entered Xuexiang Courtyard that I finally found a place that I was somewhat familiar with.
The courtyard wasn't too big or too small. Guo Qi watched as her cousin lived in Sheng'an for two years and seemed to be doing quite well.
She was very curious about Lady Huan.
Seeing that she was full of energy, Guo Bing waited for her to change her clothes before going to Qing'e Palace together.
The palace maid smiled and said, "Consort Guo and Miss Guo, please wait a moment. Her Majesty will be here shortly."
Guo Bing said, "No need, I'll take my sister to the back to take a look."
The palace maid didn't stop her, but she ran off to report to the Empress.
Although Miss Guo is just a minor guest, guests who come to the Guo family must be distinguished guests.
Huan Yue hadn't expected them to arrive so quickly, so she hadn't had time to change her clothes yet.
When the weather is warm, especially when the sun is shining, Xie Fufu and Yan Boxuan wear very little clothing.
Guo Qi went to the back hall and first saw four huge ginkgo trees, then heard a commotion of chickens and dogs running around!
When the weather gets warmer, it's easier for kids to play; Xie Li and Xie Jie are rolling all over the place.
Xie Li bumped his head into a tree root.
Yan Boxuan hurried over to coax his eighth uncle.
His uncle cried so hard that it shook the heavens and earth, and he needed his second sister-in-law to kiss and hug him to feel better!
Xie Fufu took a handkerchief to wipe him clean, even though it would get dirty again in a little while.
Look, she's only six years old, but she has to take care of three uncles. It's really not easy being the eldest niece.
After the hundredth day, the wet nurse took Shiro out to play. He couldn't play in the mud yet, but we could already imagine it.
Guo Qi thought the art style of "East Palace" was absolutely amazing!
Huan Yue quickly explained, "I'm sorry, we don't usually act like this."
Guo Bing coldly replied, "Your Majesty has no idea what she's like normally."
Guo Qi said, "Second sister, don't be prejudiced against me. I'm still the most presentable one in our family."
Huan Yue nodded: "You have potential."
Guo Qi laughed loudly, taunting her sister.
Guo Bing simply ignored him.
Guo Qi was already used to it, and simply admired the lively scene at Qing'e Palace, where the spring breeze was blowing!
It's hard to imagine that there would be such an atmosphere in the palace. It should be as imposing and solemn as the palace walls, inviolable!
However, outsiders don't really know what the Guo family is like, and the Guo family has no need to explain to others.
Guo Qi felt that her second sister was doing quite well, both in the Guo family and in the palace.
Being able to be so casual with the Empress relieved her family's initial worries when they sent her to Sheng'an.
The Guo family doesn't have many daughters; Guo Qi is only fifteen this year, so it wasn't appropriate for her to have daughters before.
As for marrying Lü Wenren, Guo Qi felt there was nothing wrong with it, as long as he could get along with the man.
Huan Yue went inside and changed his clothes.
Everyone moved to the Qing'e Palace, and it looks quite nice.
There was no earthy smell on him, and the incense in the burner was of high quality, definitely in the style of royalty.
Guo Qi was completely mesmerized.
The Qing'e Palace was not complicatedly furnished, with a corner reserved for a few princes to play in.
As for why the prince is left here to play, Guo Qi need not worry about that.
Then I heard Yan Boxuan teaching his uncles to recite poems in his childish voice. This eldest nephew was extremely competent!
Guo Bing and Guo Qi said, "Our Fu Fu and Yan Boxuan are the best."
Guo Qi nodded, he understood.
Although Xie Fufu has the tendency to be like a grumpy older sister, she is a lovely girl overall.
With their parents unreliable, the siblings were being raised by their second uncle. It wasn't that difficult, but it wasn't that easy either.
A little while later, Lü Wenhe arrived, covered in sweat.
Huan Yue asked, "Why are you here so soon?"
Lu Wen said, "No, it's the area outside Xuande Gate that's blocked off, it's outrageous."
The palace maids helped Lü Wenhe tidy up.
A palace attendant went out to inquire.
It's not easy to inquire about other matters, but we should know very well what happened outside Xuande Gate.
Huan Yue was aware of the situation, but he wondered what new antics were going on today.
Lu Wen straightened his clothes and reported to the Empress: "A group of people are spreading rumors that Your Majesty likes certain flowers, plants and trees the most. Many people are bringing exotic flowers and plants to set up stalls outside Xuande Gate. Originally, they were still some distance away. But since some people want to buy them, those who come to try their luck are happy to sell them, even if they are cheap, since it only takes the time to dig them up from the mountain. But if there are buyers, there will be more sellers."
Huan Yue said, "Then go out and spread the word: Is the focus of the Charity Department this year on children who can't afford to go to school, or orphans who can't afford to go to school? You can also think of any other good ideas."
Guo Bing stood up: "Your Majesty is merciful!"
Guo Qi hadn't figured it out yet, and stood up with everyone else in a daze.
Huan Yue gestured, "Please sit down. Although I don't like this kind of format, it makes me quite happy."
Guo Qi didn't understand, so she asked her cousin.
Guo Bing explained to her, "If someone is an orphan who can't afford to go to school, then they must be an orphan; if someone is a child who can't afford to go to school, then the key is that they can't afford to go to school. Those who spread rumors about what the Empress likes won't be ordinary people. Whoever the Charity Department is going to help this year will benefit ordinary people. If those who want to curry favor with the Empress still don't understand, then they're beyond saving."
Guo Qi was impressed but didn't understand!
Gong Yun told her, "These people spread rumors, and when they reach the common people, they get distorted. But the people are the ultimate force! We just need to be down-to-earth. Even if we only help ten or twenty people go to school, if one or two of them become successful in ten years, then we've made a profit. The common people will understand that the Empress doesn't have time to pay attention to those things."
Huan Yue said, "What flowers do I like? Flowers that make ordinary people rich. What trees do I like? Trees that make ordinary people grow into towering trees and every family has a pillar of support!"
The female historian took notes, which were then relayed by the eunuch.
When it comes to playing this game, the Empress is the best.
Huan Yue said, "They probably set up the stage, and I drive the traffic. Regardless of the process, as long as the result is good, that's all that matters."
A eunuch came to report: "Princess Luoshi is going to hold a peach blossom banquet, and the guests will include the princess and the empress."
Guo Qi exclaimed in surprise, "Such a big face?"
The eunuch said, "A bunch of people are making a fuss, hoping that Your Highness will go."
Huan Yue sent someone to speak with the sage.
Guo Qi even wanted to grab a hoe and dig a few of them up!
The Great Stone Kingdom is still playing around with the Great Zhao, a bunch of shameless bastards, then let them take their heads off!
Di Baose was also furious: "Whether it was intentional or just plain stupid, if it's so stupid, why keep it as decoration?"
Fang Tang said, "Princess Luoshi also plans to use Yichun Garden."
Di Baose sneered: "I'd like to see who dares to let her use it."
Fang Tang said, "Isn't this just borrowing the Empress's name?"
Huan Yue had a sudden inspiration and sent someone to spread the word: "Everyone knows I'm strong, but I wonder if I can break a boulder on my chest?"
Fang Tang was dumbfounded!
Guo Qi snapped out of her daze and almost burst out laughing!
Princess Yongning tragically bit her own tongue.
Guo Bing was the most composed: "That's possible."
Guo Qi looked at her sister, was she sure she was calm?
It's estimated that countless innocent rocks will be crushed!
Even if Daishi Guo is just a translator, that's enough!
The Great Zhao Kingdom can break its own large stone, and the Great Stone Kingdom has no right to interfere!
It almost forced the Empress to perform herself, hahaha, it's so funny!
