Emperor Ming Yan pointed to the spring sowing knowledge and said, "This is good. The people depend on the weather for their livelihood. If the yield can be increased by half, there will be one more bowl of rice on the table."
The prince smiled and said, "Father is right."
He smiled softly, "Father always said that we should be pragmatic, and this wild goose report really follows this path. It is said that these things were carefully summarized by County Magistrate Lin who found many experienced old farmers."
The Third Prince also joined in the fun and said with a smile, "My son heard that the idea of this advertisement was also proposed by Miss Tang, which means to spread the word widely. In addition to using this money to pay for the materials and writing materials for the Wild Goose Newspaper, any surplus will be used for charity."
The prince asked, "Father, do you think it is feasible to promote this wild goose newspaper throughout the country?"
Emperor Mingyan was silent, and the Crown Prince said, "The court bulletin should also be sent to each state for review every day. It is not troublesome to add the wild goose bulletin. Since the wild goose bulletin is issued to the people, the content should be simple and easy to review. Moreover, it can let the people hear the voice of the emperor and gather their hearts. When my son was in Qinzhou, he heard "Long live the emperor" everywhere."
Emperor Ming Yan nodded and said, "Write a proposal and present it to me."
The prince agreed with a smile.
The Third Prince smiled and said, "It seems that this Enfu County Lord is really a blessed person. A thing he made casually was able to catch the attention of my eldest brother, and he urged my father to do this."
What do you mean by instigating? The prince didn't admit it. "If I think it's good, of course I have to show it to my father. It doesn't matter who made it."
...
...
The Third Prince laughed and said to Emperor Mingyan, "I heard that Lady Enfu is blessed with good fortune and is very smart. Why don't you summon her to see the Emperor?"
"No need," Emperor Mingyan said, "It's not the right time."
The Third Prince was unwilling to accept this. "Father, everyone in Qinzhou knows about the lightning strike. Several people saw it with their own eyes. I also heard that there were a few failed vaccinations in Dongfeng County, but no one died in her village. Even those who were infected with smallpox recovered. How could Father allow such a blessed person to stay among the people? Wouldn't everyone covet her?"
Emperor Ming Yan glanced at him indifferently.
There was no way to tell whether he was happy or angry in his eyes. The Third Prince was shocked in his heart, but having said this, it was too late to back down.
The Third Prince continued, "Why doesn't your father take a lady like this into the palace?"
Emperor Mingyan said calmly: "You have heard a lot, but haven't you heard that she is already engaged?"
"So what?" The Third Prince said, "Without the permission of the parents, and without the three matchmakers and six witnesses, it is a private transaction like this..."
Emperor Mingyan slapped the table and said angrily, "Who did you learn this from? Cowpox can prevent smallpox, and the news spread all over the world. You can't see so many important things, but you only think about these small things! The great prince of Dayan has no vision and heart, and only knows how to be a snake and a dog, sowing discord, how different is he from the women in the harem!"
The third prince's face turned pale after being scolded by him, and he knelt down with a thud.
The prince did not help to plead, but just stood there with his hands hanging down, saying nothing.
The third prince is narrow-minded and loves to play such cunning and despicable tricks.
If he really had some private relationship with Tang Shiyue, or even if he didn't have any private relationship but wanted to win her over... then his words would definitely plant a thorn between him and his father.
Matters involving women are the most difficult to mediate, the hardest to explain, and the most disgusting.
But unfortunately, he had already told Emperor Ming Yan about the relationship between Tang Shiyue and Huo Qijing, and he was even their matchmaker.
And just a few days ago, after he came back, he told Emperor Ming Yan about what Tang Shiyue had asked him to do.
Therefore, he and Emperor Ming Yan both treated her as an interesting and useful person, so his words seemed very... mean.
Emperor Ming Yan's temper was like a thunderbolt. At this moment, he suddenly saw a eunuch circling anxiously outside. Gu Jiuxing went over to ask him, and when he came back, his face looked a little strange.
Emperor Mingyan stopped cursing and asked, "What's the matter?"
Gu Jiuxing knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Prince An suddenly fainted, and the imperial physician was called."
Prince An was the uncle of Emperor Ming Yan, and they were like father and son. His sudden fainting at such an old age must be no small matter.
Emperor Mingyan was in no mood to scold him now, and he simply said, "Get out of here!" He then said, "Prince, go and have a look for me!"
The prince replied, "Yes."
The Crown Prince and the Third Prince bowed and left together.
The prince hurried out, leaving the third prince gritting his teeth.
The hateful thing is that until now, he still doesn't know why the emperor suddenly got so angry... Could it be that he has made up his mind to leave Lady Enfu to the prince?
Yes, that must be it!
The third prince's eyes darkened.
I'm sorry!!
…………
Of course Tang Shiyue didn't know that this most honorable father and son from the royal family had once had such a dispute over a mere county lady like her.
That day, she sent away the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict and hurried to the county government office.
She was right. County Magistrate Lin also received the oral order and was preparing to go to the capital to report for his new post.
This is an extraordinary summons, if nothing unexpected happens, it will definitely mean a promotion.
Yang was crying and complaining. If she had known this, she shouldn't have arranged a marriage for Lin Qiaoqian. If his official position could be promoted, Lin Qiaoqian would have a wider range of choices. Moreover, Lin Qiaoqian had already reached the age of marriage. If the two of them wanted to leave, would they take her with them or not? Did they have to get married right away?
County Magistrate Lin was very helpless.
Why did she think he was arranging the marriage? He accidentally saw Chen Changqing talking to his daughter. Although the two were very far away and very polite, the expression on his daughter's face could not deceive anyone...
Chen Changqing has now passed the Ming Suan exam and is following Tang Shiyue, who personally acts as a matchmaker for her. Although she is marrying down from a lower status, she feels at ease.
Besides, Tang Shiyue is already a county lady now!
As long as Chen Changqing could make some achievements by following her, it wouldn't be considered marrying down. He really didn't understand why his wife was dissatisfied.
When Tang Shiyue arrived, he saw the couple looking left and right, ignoring each other. Tang Shiyue only asked two questions and guessed what was going on. He couldn't help laughing and thought that County Magistrate Lin was really a straight man.
She advised her: "Madam, you just can't bear to part with Aqiao. Who wants to argue with you?"
Then he said to Yang: "If you are bored, just have another child!"
Yang sighed, "If only it were that easy. I'm already this old, how can I still have children?"
Tang Shiyue looked at her curiously: "You are still so young, why can't you have a baby?"
Ms. Yang is not even 35 years old yet, so she is not considered an advanced maternal age! Aren’t there many women giving birth in their 40s and 50s?
Yang was about to speak when she suddenly thought of something. Her eyes lit up, and she took her hand and pressed it on her belly: "Then please ask Lady Fu to grant me a child."
The two chatted and laughed.
Then Tang Shiyue told her about the wine shop business. Yang said, "It's too early to talk about this now, and it seems frivolous. But Yue'er, you are not an outsider, so I will tell you the truth directly. As long as you are here, we will work with you for one day. I will leave everyone here and listen to your orders."
Tang Shiyue smiled and said, "Just give this to Aqiao as a dowry."
Yang smiled and sighed, "If you really mean it... that's all we can do."
Tang Shiyue actually didn't come for business, but mainly to ask about County Magistrate Lin's situation. She had a lot of things on hand, so she said a few words and prepared to leave.
However, County Magistrate Lin asked someone to stop her and invite her to the outer hall. When Tang Shiyue saw Su Ji was also there, she suddenly felt guilty and stopped in her tracks.
She hasn't memorized the book he asked her to memorize yet... She has been avoiding him since then. Anyway, she has Qing Weile and Ding Jiu, so she can always avoid him if she wants to... But Ding Jiu didn't come in today!
So Tang Shiyue bowed and said, "Master."
Su Ji nodded.
County Magistrate Lin handed over a piece of paper and said, "Look, this is the inscription."
Tang Shiyue held his forehead with his hand: "County Master, you want me to read this kind of flowery stuff, isn't that playing the lute to a cow?"
County Magistrate Lin laughed and had to take it back. He showed her the list of good doctors he had prepared. Tang Shiyue saw that the doctor surnamed Zhu was also on the list and immediately pointed at him and asked, "Why is he here too?"
