So the next day after the morning court session, Huo Qijing went to stop Sun Xuancheng, and then said directly: "Fuyan is pregnant recently, and she is not in good spirits. No one is taking care of the inner house. Weiliao is already big, we want to ask for a date in the next two days and marry your fifth daughter as soon as possible. I hope the second assistant will approve it."
Sun Xuancheng naturally agreed.
When she got back and told him about it, Yin was very surprised: "Does this mean that Wu Niang can be the housekeeper as soon as she gets married? In charge of the Duke's Mansion?"
Sun Xuancheng said: "I think that's exactly what he meant."
Yin was surprised and asked, "What does your highness mean?"
"What do you mean?"
"How can one become a housekeeper just after entering the family? He is a disciple, not a biological son." Yin looked at his expression and said carefully, "It is naturally a good thing that Your Highness values Wu Niang, but... the favor is too much, and I feel a little uneasy."
"What's there to be worried about?!" Sun Xuancheng could not help but scold: "Prime Minister has the whole world in mind, how could he care about these trivial matters in the inner chamber! Among all the civil and military officials in the court, the one I respect the most is only you, Prime Minister!"
Yin was slightly surprised. This was the first time she heard Sun Xuancheng recognize someone so much.
Sun Xuancheng was still not satisfied, and continued to scold: "Don't learn from those gossipy women to gossip! You only see that the prime minister is ruthless, but have you ever seen her take the initiative to provoke anyone?! Tell Wu Niang that after entering the door, just keep good thoughts in your heart and don't do bad things, and you will be honored and favored for a lifetime!"
...
...
He left in a huff.
The next day, the Duke's Mansion came to ask for a date as expected, and the girl's family also showed their sincerity and set the wedding date for half a month later.
The women in Chang'an City who heard about this were simply indescribable in their feelings!
When Yan Shiyue suddenly announced the good news of her pregnancy, it was enough to make people collapse, especially the sisters. More than one person let out a roar of collapse: "Isn't it difficult to have children?!"
Married for more than a month, pregnant for more than a month, that is to say, she got pregnant right after getting married, this is called difficult to have children? They almost don’t know the words difficult to have children! !
As a result, now...
When the betrothal gift was proposed a few days ago, the man's betrothal gift was completely based on that of a son, which was enough to make them envious and jealous. Now, Sun Wuniang has already obtained the power of housekeeper before she even enters the family?
How can those who have been fighting with their mother-in-law and sisters-in-law all their lives because of the housekeeper feel? !
And that's the Duke's Mansion! The residence of Her Royal Highness the Princess! Who doesn't know that she is as rich as a country? ? How could Sun Wu Niang be so lucky!
For a moment, everyone's eyes glowed with envy.
Ren Dong and Huo Nan, the only two disciples of Huo Qijing without a master, have once again attracted a round of attention... Even if they don't have the power of a housekeeper, how worry-free it would be to live in a home like this!
However, Yan Shiyue was in no mood to meet with the official media, no matter how many people came, it would be useless.
The next day, the prince sent his long-time attendant Zhu Zhe to show her the drafted details.
Yan Shiyue glanced at them and asked, "What if there are illiterate people?"
Zhu Zhe hurriedly smiled and said, "What does your highness mean?"
"It's okay, I don't care," Yan Shiyue said, "Just let my brother take care of it... Is there anything else?"
Zhu Zhe asked anxiously, "Your Highness asked, when will the questions be released?"
"Oh..." Yan Shiyue said: "Tonight, I'll try my best."
Zhu Zhe went back and told the prince about it.
The prince pondered for a long time, then hit the table: "Yes, there must be many people who can do business without knowing how to read! They can be included! In ancient times, there was a saying that goes 'a thousand gold coins to buy bones'. This can show the court's determination to develop trade! It can also be completely distinguished from the imperial examination."
So the prince discussed with everyone and decided to add this item. If there are people who are illiterate but think they have the ability, they can find someone to read or write for them, but there will be someone to supervise the whole process to prevent two people from colluding to cheat.
After the discussion was finalized, he turned around and asked, "What do you think of Fu Yan?"
Zhu Zhe said: "Your Highness looked very bad, and he was not very energetic when he spoke. When he was talking to me, someone was supporting him the whole time."
The prince frowned, turned around and ordered the princess to go over and take a look.
Over there, after sending away the prince's attendant, Yan Shiyue asked someone to call Huo Qiyang over.
She was really too lazy to write, but if she asked someone else, it would not be convenient for her to sit on the couch. Huo Qiyang didn't mind, so she just leaned on the pillow and dictated. Huo Qiyang wrote, Yan Shiyue took a look, changed two places, and then finalized it.
In fact, this topic is very simple, with only ten questions, which can be considered an introduction. If there are many people left, you can take a re-examination.
Huo Qiyang copied it again. Yan Shiyue asked him, "Ayang, will you take part in the examination next year?"
"I will," Huo Qiyang said, "Sister, if I can pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar, can I become an official?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "Yes, definitely."
"That's good," Huo Qiyang said, "I want to help my sister."
Yan Shiyue was happy: "Don't worry, no one in the court dares to bully me."
Huo Qiyang said: "But my sister said that you have a lot of things you want to do, but few people you can trust."
Yan Shiyue smiled and nodded.
Huo Qiyang can really be used as an adult.
And if he could really get into the top three, even if he wasn't in the top three, he could be a Jinshi or Tongjinshi, and he could serve as an official with others... Even if he was only ten years old, so what? There was no age limit for the top three!
Yan Shiyue asked him: "Will it delay you if you teach Xiao Si? If not, I will send him to the Imperial Academy!"
Huo Qiyang shook his head: "No, there is no need to delay. It has been three years, there is no need to rush. Besides, he is actually quite good. He has not thrown away everything he learned before, so it will be easy to pick it up again."
Yan Shiyue was happy again: "You really sound like Mr. Xu's disciple!"
Huo Qiyang paused and asked again, "Sister."
"Um?"
He coughed twice: "Should I talk to Qu Sinian more?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "You are you. You are great and you don't need to learn his way of doing things. But if you have a chance, you can chat with him. After all, he likes to talk a lot. It's good to learn from the court. I'm too lazy to learn. If you learn, I can save effort."
Huo Qiyang nodded in agreement, and was about to speak again when he saw that her eyes were about to stick together.
Linlang gestured to him, removed the pillow, and helped her lie down. Yan Shiyue muttered, "Has Ayang finished writing..." and then fell asleep in a daze.
Huo Qiyang carefully packed up his writing brush and left.
Yan Shiyue suffered from morning sickness and sleepiness. She didn't gain any weight but became thinner when she was pregnant.
Huo Qijing initially let her people torment him, but every time he came home, he saw that her face was very pale and there was no improvement at all. He soon lost his patience and went to ask Su Ji what to do.
Su Ji is now a centenarian. Sitting on a recliner, he replied in a very Buddhist way: "It's not a good time to take medicine. Take your time. You will be fine after three months."
Huo Qijing frowned and said, "But I haven't eaten for a few days!"
Su Ji said slowly, "Bring all kinds of things here and try them out. Maybe one of them will suit your taste. You can't predict such things. Women may have morning sickness and want to chew on candles! Anyway, as long as something suits your taste, you won't vomit."
