Chapter 176 Zhuanxu Calendarshuhaige.net



Meng Yang was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Your Highness, I am not a pedantic person. It is a good thing for Princess Yin Man to have her own hobbies, and I naturally support her."

"If there is a conflict between my sister and your mother, should you stand on my sister's side or your mother's side?" Zhao Qingrui said with a smile in her eyes.

Ying Zheng watched silently as the girl's questions became more and more tricky.

Zhao Qingrui had met the eldest lady of the Meng family. Neither of the Meng brothers had concubines, and their relationship was harmonious. The eldest lady was also a sensible person, so she wanted to see Meng Yang's attitude.

Yin Man no longer cared about being shy at this time. She looked at Meng Yang curiously, wanting to know how he would answer.

She actually didn't think too much about things like getting married, because her father wouldn't cheat her anyway.

Now, hearing her younger sister's test of her future husband, she felt warm in her heart. Her younger sister was thinking about her. Her mother died early and no one cared about her in these matters.

"If there is any conflict between mother and Princess Yin Man, I will mediate and prevent them from getting into trouble."

"Okay, you've passed this question. There is one more. If your sister only gives birth to a daughter in the future, will you ask her to give birth to a son? If she doesn't want to, you still have to let her continue the Meng family's incense." Zhao Qingrui looked sideways at Meng Yang.

The Qin Dynasty was actually much better than other dynasties. Women had a high status and the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls was not serious.

She was mainly worried that Meng Yang would have the same thoughts, and then Yin Man would be the one who suffered.

"Everyone in my family likes daughters very much." When it came to the topic of having children in the future, Meng Yang felt his face was about to burn.

But what he said was indeed the truth. There were not many children in the Meng family, and everyone in the family liked girls. For example, Meng Yu was spoiled by everyone at home.

"What about your mother's request for a son?"

"I will discuss it with the princess. If she is unwilling, I will go and persuade mother." Meng Yang believed that his mother was not that kind of person. Of course, he liked his daughter more. Meng Yu was very cute when she was a child.

"Your Majesty, I have asked all the questions I wanted to ask. Meng Zuo is a more suitable candidate. My sister can marry him." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.

Ying Zheng was also very satisfied with the questions raised by Zhao Qingrui. As a rough man, he could not think of so many questions at all. It turned out that the little girl was very thoughtful.

He looked at Meng Yang and asked, "Ahem, are you dissatisfied with the question Qing Rui asked you just now?"

"I have no complaints. Your Highness is also considering Princess Yin Man." Meng Yang shook his head.

He hadn't expected this to happen, but fortunately, his answer seemed to satisfy both His Majesty and the little princess.

"Qing Rui's question is also what I want to ask. Yin Man has a soft personality. I don't want to hear about Yin Man being bullied by you in the future."

"I will never let Princess Yin Man down."

"Okay, this matter has been settled. I have asked Zhang Cang to calculate the date and finalize your marriage with Yin Man as soon as possible. Before you get married, you will stay in Xianyang. The position of lieutenant is vacant, and you will be the chief officer of the Lieutenant's Office." Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yang with satisfaction.

She is worthy of being the one he likes. Although she is a little darker, she looks more energetic and seems to be a good match for his daughter.

"Yes." Lieutenant is already a very good official position with considerable power. He can be said to be very proud of himself after returning this time.

"Yin Man will go to the official newspaper office soon. Please take her there."

After sending the two away, Ying Zheng left the matters here to Zhao Qingrui, and went to the harem to look for those little goblins.

The two walked out of the palace side by side, and many people were looking at them. His Majesty granted the marriage and promised Princess Yin Man to Meng Yang. Many people were secretly envious.

Princess Yin Man is also a princess very much loved by His Majesty. This good marriage has now fallen on Meng Yang.

Unfortunately, it’s useless for them to be envious, jealous and hateful. The matter has already been decided, so there’s no point in them being envious.

Feng Jie and Feng Quji, however, talked about this matter, with a hint of envy in their voices, "Big brother's Yun'er is also a good candidate. His Majesty has his eyes on the Meng family."

"There is no rush for Yun'er's marriage. He is now reporting on his work outside. It won't be too late to talk about it after he has made some achievements." Feng Quji was not in a hurry.

"Yes, Yun'er insisted on taking up a position in another place, and he also wanted to achieve something through his own efforts." Feng Jie nodded.

"By the way, I remember that the little princess will be an adult next year. I wonder if Your Majesty has a candidate in mind?" Feng Jie suddenly thought of Zhao Qingrui.

Feng Quji glanced at him silently, "Why? Are you still going to let Yun'er enter the harem?"

Feng Jie, who was drinking water, choked and almost forgot about it. "Ahem, forget it."

His Majesty has clearly told them that Zhao Qingrui is the crown prince in his heart. The reason why he has not appointed a crown prince yet is just to let her gain more experience in the court to improve her prestige.

"Let's not interfere in the little princess' affairs, and you shouldn't say anything nonsense outside." Feng Quji said seriously.

Letting his son marry Zhao Qingrui is indeed a good thing, but if his son has to stay in the harem in the future, he will definitely not be willing to do that.

It would be better to marry a girl from another noble family than a princess.

Zhang Cang was quite good at calculating dates, and he set the date in just a few days.

He was about to go on an inspection tour, and it would take at least a year for him to return. If Yin Man wanted to get married, she had to wait until the First Emperor returned from his inspection tour.

Therefore, the date was set for the beginning of spring next year, which is the Duanyue month.

Looking at the calendar handed over by Zhang Cang, Zhao Qingrui began to want to modify the calendar again.

"What's wrong? Your brows are all furrowed together? Is there something wrong with the calendar? You've been staring at it." Seeing his daughter's brows were so furrowed that she could pinch a fly to death, Ying Zheng smiled.

"There are quite a few problems, but if we have to revise the calendar, there will be even more problems. Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now." Zhao Qingrui started to have a headache when he saw the calendar.

The Qin calendar followed the Zhuanxu calendar, with October as the first month and September of the following year as the end. October was still called the tenth month, not the first month or the first month.

Duanyue (i.e. January or the first month of the lunar calendar, not changed to April) was originally the month of the beginning of spring and the starting point of the 24 solar terms. It was changed to Duanyue because of taboos by Emperor Qin Shi Huang.

Zhao Qingrui was not used to the Qin Dynasty calendar in many ways. She only looked at the system time.

According to the Zhuanxu calendar, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and then she will go out for a trip with her father.

Because of the New Year, the palace has become busy and there are so many things to prepare.

"Revising the calendar is no small matter." Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows. Generally, the calendar will be revised and the era name will be changed only after a new emperor ascends the throne. It is a good thing that his daughter is willing to revise it.
