[Red Mansion] Adopted daughter and child

Seeing Baoyu and Miaoyu having trouble in the bridal chamber with their own eyes, and eating the wedding wine toasted by Baoyu, Jia Min took Daiyu back to the Lin family.

Neither of them had a good opinion of Jia Baoyu. After returning, they just lamented the excitement of the wedding banquet. Jia Min routinely urged the marriage again, and the day passed like this.

Compared with Jia Baoyu's marriage, Daiyu actually cared more about Tanchun's desire to take the imperial examination.

It's a pity that looking at the old lady's appearance, I'm afraid that Tanchun really won't be able to take the imperial examination before he gets married.Daiyu remembered that Tanchun had a brisk temper and was quite capable, and she felt a little pity.

In about a month, Lin Ruhai, Ji Song and the others finished the exam papers they were responsible for one after another.

When a total of fifteen exam questions appeared on Lin Liu's desk, she couldn't help being speechless.

But it's also for the good of both parties.

After the exam questions were finished, Lin Liu invited Sheng Man and Jia Min.Sheng Man can be the examiner for the Four Books and Five Classics and policy theory. If it doesn't work, you can also find Lin Ruhai. There is no need to hire another teacher.

But for other aspects such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is necessary to hire a teacher who is highly respected, at least someone who can convince these concubines as a judge.

For piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., the actual operation is tested, so the examiner has to enter the palace.

Therefore, the gender of the examiner is preferably female.

In this regard, Sheng Man and Jia Min obviously knew more people than anyone else.

In fact, it didn't take long for Sheng Man and Jia Min to talk about masters in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and agreed on a time to enter the palace.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

So after discussing with Lin Ruhai and the others, Lin Liu confirmed the date of the exam.

But before the exam, a small episode happened——

The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to Lin Liu with the account book, saying that there was a problem with the account book.

Lin Liu asked him to explain what went wrong, and the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't explain clearly, which made her brows twitch with anger.

Just when she was so angry that she wanted to hit someone, the Ministry of Internal Affairs directly handed over the account books for the past year to Lin Liu.

The account book for the last year is the account book after the death of the former emperor.

Except for a very small part, it should be her expenses.

But when Lin Liu opened the account book, she realized that her own expenses actually only accounted for a very small part of the account expenditure. After all, she didn't have any special needs for food, drink, and entertainment, so naturally she wouldn't spend too much money.

And the biggest expense on the ledger turned out to be the monthly silver of the tens of thousands of eunuchs, maids and nuns in the harem.

Seeing that Lin Liu's face was livid, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was relieved, and explained: "The harem's expenses are too high, and I'm really worried, so I have to rush to inform His Majesty about this matter."

He didn't take this matter to heart before, but his wife reminded him that it's nothing for the emperor to keep the former emperor's concubines in the palace, but the emperor must be aware of the expenses of the harem, so as not to see every detail of the Ministry of Internal Affairs when checking the accounts at the end of the year. There is such a large sum of expenses every month, and I think it is not good for him to handle affairs.

Lin Liu frowned after flipping through the account book: "I flipped through the account book roughly, and found that there were many unnecessary expenditures. First, why are there so many eunuchs and maids in the palace? Second, those who didn't Why do people still clean the place where people live? These concubines don’t spend much, but why are there so many servants around them?”

According to the level of rank, there are five to twenty palace servants around each person.

Lin Liu didn't have so many people around him.

Except for spring, summer, autumn and winter, there are only eight sweeping women in her palace.

The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs took a careful look at Lin Liu, and saw that she was asking seriously instead of being angry, so they breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "The number of people serving the concubine has been reduced, even their food, clothing, housing and transportation It has also been reduced a lot before, the concubine used to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver on food, clothing, housing and transportation every month, and the monthly silver of the palace is actually a small expenditure."

He first showed his merits to himself, and after consciously put on a layer of safety lock, he continued, "After the death of the former emperor and the emperor, only the most basic guarantee of food, clothing, housing and transportation is left for the concubine, and the expenditure is not enough. big."

After all, they are not the emperor's women, so you can't ask the emperor to pay for them to buy clothes, jewelry, cosmetics and other things, right?

"However, many palaces must be cleaned every day. Otherwise, it will only take a day or two, and the palace will be covered with dust, making it impossible to live in. There are also flowers, plants, sweeping, etc. in each palace. If everyone fills up the number of people, the number will naturally increase."

Of course, the most important thing is that after the emperor ascended the throne, he basically did not manage the harem.

Not only the concubines, but also the eunuchs and maids never cared about it, so as many people as there were in the former imperial palace, there will not be too many fewer people in the imperial palace now.

The former emperor was fine.

However, the life of the former Supreme Emperor was extravagant, and the number of servants in the palace had already exceeded the quota, and there were new recruits every year.

But in this case, he dared not tell the emperor.

Lin Liu looked at the account book in her hand in astonishment, she didn't expect that after becoming the throne, the person who spent the most money was actually in the harem.

But this harem has nothing to do with her at all.

After hesitating, she asked directly: "Do these court ladies and eunuchs want to leave the palace?"

The Master of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was slightly stunned, nodded and said: "I guess I want to leave."

To put it bluntly, this harem is a place where people cannibalize. Living in it is like walking a tightrope. At some point, you will lose your life due to reasons you don't know.

This person, who can live, who wants to die?

Of course, it is not without exception.

The lord of the Ministry of Internal Affairs whispered: "Those old eunuchs, although they have saved some money, may not want to leave the palace."

After the maids in the palace leave the palace, because they are familiar with the royal rules, they can still be invited home to serve as nuns for the daughters of girls. Most of the maids are under 25 years old, and they can still marry after leaving the palace.

Young eunuchs can go out on their own, and there are many opportunities. Although they may receive some supercilious looks, they will definitely not starve to death.Compared to staying in the palace to live a precarious life, it is more comfortable to go out of the palace and be the master of the house.

Only those eunuchs who are already old, have no relatives to take care of them after they go out, and they will be looked down upon by others. Even if they have some money with them, most of them will end up miserable.

If they could leave the palace, these old eunuchs would definitely not be willing to leave.

Lin Liu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's just the old eunuch?"

After a pause, she still asked cautiously, "How many old eunuchs are there in the palace now?"

The Master of the Ministry of Internal Affairs thought for a while, and replied with a rough number: "Probably, it's less than a hundred."

The manpower loss in the palace is very large, and there will be many old eunuchs who can reach the old eunuchs safely.

Lin Liu was instantly relieved: "Okay, I know about this, you should go back first."

The lord of the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not understand the emperor's plan, but since the matter had been told to her, no matter what the emperor planned to do in the future, it had nothing to do with him.

After the people left, Lin Liu looked at the ledger in his hand and sighed long.

She shouldn't have ignored the harem.

Why did she forget that although there are not many masters in the harem, there are tens or hundreds of times as many servants as the masters?

Of course, raising concubines is no problem, but raising these palace people is a big problem.

She had to send the concubine away, and after the palace was vacated, she would directly seal up all the palaces on the grounds that she didn't need the harem!

Anyway, Lin Liu doesn't have a harem, so why bother to have the harem cleaned?

After a pause, Lin Liu subconsciously thought of the Forbidden City——

Perhaps, there is an opportunity to transform this palace into a tourist attraction in the future?

Lin Liu thought about something, and laughed to herself.

Before the exam, according to the previous agreement, Lin Liu asked someone to go to the harem to invite Jian Huizhen to him: "After discussing with others, I decided to give you a chance to choose."

Jian Huizhen looked at Lin Liu pitifully: "I don't know how His Majesty wants to arrange us?"

Xu already knew that Jian Huizhen was a bigwig who was good at strategizing, Lin Liu couldn't bear to look at her so weak and pitiful again.

She thought for a while, and tentatively opened her mouth: "My former husband was named Sheng Man. She mentioned to me earlier that the daughter of Jian Shang, the Minister of Rites in the former dynasty, was very talented. To say something is to make people feel ashamed.”

Jian Huizhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled after a long silence: "If your majesty sees Sheng Man, please thank her on behalf of my concubine, thank her for speaking well for my concubine in front of your majesty. But Sheng Man's praise is worthy of my concubine, the world is full of talents There are so many of them, and the concubine among them is nothing more than a tiny firefly, and it is only Sheng Man who had an irresistible relationship with the concubine back then, that's why she praised her so highly."

Lin Liu laughed: "Ma'am, don't be nervous. I brought this up today because I plan to open a few girls' schools and only accept female students. In order to cause unnecessary trouble, the teachers in the school must also be female."

Maybe in a few years or ten years, there will be male teachers in women's schools, but the current social environment is obviously not enough.

Her background was exposed, and when Jian Huizhen looked at Lin Liu again, she no longer put on a cute and pitiful look.

When Lin Liu mentioned the teacher of the women's school, she grasped the point almost instantly.

Then, her pupils dilated, and she looked at Lin Liu in surprise: "Your Majesty, what you mean is that we, women of the former emperor, can also compete for the position of female school teacher?"

Lin Liu smiled and nodded: "There are very few women in this world who have studied and are willing to show their faces. If there are many talented people among you, maybe most of the teachers in the school will choose from among you."

"However, whether you can seize the opportunity and which school you can get into in the end, you can't say for sure."

Jian Huizhen paused, and asked cautiously: "Can Your Majesty tell my concubine the specific situation of the schools that are going to be opened?"

Lin Liu nodded, and told Jian Huizhen about the three schools.

After Jian Huizhen finished listening, she only thought for a moment, and then she understood the difference between the other two schools and the third school——

The former is where the emperor trains his confidantes, while the latter is just an explanation for those rich people; if there is no accident, the students who come out of the former can contribute to the emperor even if they don’t enter the court, but the latter only goes to the school to be gilded, for Marry a good family.

She quickly figured out the difference between the three schools, but she made a mistake about the importance of the first two schools.

Jian Huizhen believes that the emperor should pay more attention to the school that trains Jinshi.

But when she asked, she got a negative answer.

Lin Liu didn't explain the reason, but just looked at Jian Huizhen expectantly.

But it may be the limitations of the times, or Jian Huizhen has lost her sensitivity to the external situation after all these years in the harem, so after thinking for a long time, she has not found the reason.

Lin Liu thought about it, and decided to give Jian Huizhen another chance: "You are not curious, why did Sheng Man mention you in front of me again?"

Jian Huizhen was stunned, and looked at Lin Liu suspiciously: "Sheng Man, isn't your Majesty's former husband?"

Lin Liu smiled and shook her head: "If Sheng Man was just my husband, how could I mention you to her? After I ascended the throne, I opened the Enke, regardless of fame, gender, as long as you want, you can sign up for the imperial examination. Sheng Man participated and won the number one prize."

As soon as these words came out, Jian Huizhen's breathing became obviously disordered.

Her heart was beating wildly, and she could hardly control the excitement that was about to burst out of her chest.But soon, she calmed down.

Jian Huizhen realized that this matter had nothing to do with her——

No matter how magnanimous the current emperor is and how friendly he is to women, it is impossible for the former emperor's harem to take part in the imperial examination and then enter the court as an official.

Not to mention other things, what if some of them can't think about it and want to take revenge?

Jian Huizhen's mouth was bitter.

This feeling is simply terrible, as if she has been falling down the cliff uncontrollably since she entered the palace, and she watched a rope fall from it, but found that the rope was too thin and slippery, and she couldn't grasp it at all .

This feeling was even more desperate and sad than when she had never seen the rope.

But after she entered the palace, she had already experienced this feeling countless times. Jian Huizhen quickly adjusted, but subconsciously showed a somewhat pitiful expression on her face.

After a pause, she quickly realized that she couldn't help but smile wryly.

Lin Liu considerately pretended not to notice, and continued: "Sheng Man has now entered the Hanlin Academy and gave a five-rank attendant lecture. I decided to let her serve as a sacrificial wine for the women's school after the establishment of the women's school. study for women."

Jian Huizhen was a little envious, and the next moment, she suddenly raised her head to look at Lin Liu.

Female officer, female student, female sacrificial wine...

She seemed to realize something: "Your Majesty, do you want to change the status of women?"

With just this one sentence, Lin Liu decided to reuse Jian Huizhen.

Even if Jian Huizhen's ability to write policy theory is ruined, she must find a way to keep Jian Huizhen to work for herself.

Lin Liu looked at Jian Huizhen with a smile and didn't answer her question, but Jian Huizhen already understood her thoughts and was very excited about it: "If I want to become a teacher in these women's schools, what do I need to do? "

Lin Liu nodded and said, "Examination."

Jian Huizhen was stunned for a moment: "Is it the imperial examination? Or is the imitation department holding an examination that belongs to us?"

The more she chatted with Jian Huizhen, the more Lin Liu was satisfied with Jian Huizhen.

This is really a very smart woman.

Lin Liu introduced the content of the exam, and mentioned that there are more than a dozen sets of exam papers: "Because not everyone is decathlon, so you can sign up and choose the subjects you are good at. If you do well in the exam, wait until after the palace exam next year. When the women's school starts, you can leave the palace."

"Of course, if you don't want to be a teacher, you don't have to sign up." Lin Liu sighed slightly, "But for now, we haven't found any other better way to accommodate you, so if you give up this opportunity, you may not succeed. If you get admitted to the position of female school teacher, I can only let you out and let you live on your own."

After Jian Huizhen thought about it for a while, she realized that being a teacher in a women's school was the best choice.

Firstly, teachers are respected by people. If they can be teachers in women's schools, at least they won't be looked down upon after leaving the palace; Her teacher is considered to be under the protection of the emperor, even if other people have bad intentions towards them, the widows of the former emperor, they dare not do anything wrong for the sake of the emperor.

The most important thing is that after becoming a female school teacher, other people at least know that the emperor has no ill intentions towards their female relatives, and their lives will definitely be much better in the future.

If more people were admitted to female teachers, even those who failed to pass the exam would benefit from those who passed the exam after leaving the palace, at least life would be a little easier.

Jian Huizhen understood very well that the emperor's willingness to give them such a chance was already a great kindness.

only……

"What if someone doesn't want to leave the palace?" Jian Huizhen also knows that it is inappropriate to ask this question at this time, but if many things cannot be explained clearly at the beginning, it will only lead to unnecessary conflicts in the end. I am also worried that the emperor is just waiting for a better time to deal with us, and now that the emperor does not see us seriously, and thinking of the hardships of life outside the palace, many concubines are already retreating."

Lin Liu smiled and sighed: "Then we can only send him to the imperial temple to practice cultivation."

In short, it is impossible to keep people in the palace.

Too many hidden dangers and a waste of money.

These women were the widows of the two previous emperors, and she was not obliged to risk all kinds of dangers to support them.

If she only needs to provide shelter and food, it's okay, and it's not that she can't afford it.

But the problem is, Lin Liu had asked someone to come over to inquire before and found out that these concubines live in the palace. Although their lives are not as luxurious as before, they still have fish and meat every day, and there are a large group of people around them to serve them.

Regardless of whether it is their own food, clothing, housing and transportation, or the monthly silver, board and lodging of those palace people, it is the imperial court that spends money.

Even without mentioning these things, these people live in such a large place, and there are a huge number of people who just clean it every day, and the monthly silver and residences of these people are naturally paid by the imperial court.

Lin Liu: "..."

She looked at Jian Huizhen, "It's fine if you want to stay in the palace, but there are some things you must know."

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Bichun.

Bichun understood, stood up and explained: "There will definitely be no young concubines left in the palace, not even under forty; secondly, regardless of status, each person can only keep one servant, and try to live together, try to Reduce space. Besides food, everything is self-reliant, including cleaning the house and changing clothes. In the future, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will only be responsible for the news of the emperor’s daily life, and will not issue monthly silver to you. If you want to wear clothes, you must also Spend your own money to buy…”

Bichun rambled a lot, all of which were ordered by Lin Liu before.

In fact, these words should not be said in front of Lin Liu, they are a bit inappropriate and appear to be haggling.

but……

Whatever it is, now that the national treasury is short of money, Lin Liu doesn't want to waste it in these unnecessary places.

And besides, what if someone doesn't want to go?

Before, she didn't know that raising a concubine cost so much money, and there were a lot of extra expenses. Now that she knew it, she naturally wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.

And those court ladies and eunuchs!

Jian Huizhen looked at Lin Liu in astonishment: "Your Majesty, is the treasury short of money?"

Lin Liu glanced at her: "The treasury has never been short of money."

What's more, she still has a lot of things to do in the future. Of course, the more money the treasury has, the better. It's best to pile up the treasury directly with golden gold, so that she doesn't have any scruples when she wants to spend money.

Jian Huizhen thought for a while, then laughed: "If the concubine passes on His Majesty's words to other people, no one will want to stay in the palace anymore."

Today's emperor has no relatives and no reason for them, and they have a feeling of being dependent on others living in the palace. If they learn about the emperor again, even if some people do not plan to leave the palace, they will only choose to leave.

After that, as Jian Huizhen expected, when she relayed the emperor's words to other people, they knew that those who didn't want to leave the palace or were hesitant, all made up their minds to leave the palace.

Jian Huizhen quickly talked about the establishment of women's schools and the exams for women's teachers, and explained the benefits of becoming a women's teacher.

These women are not stupid, as long as they are talented and capable, they immediately went to Jian Huizhen to sign up for the teacher's exam.To be on the safe side, some even registered for four or five subjects in one go.

Jian Huizhen counted, and basically all the people who could count in the palace before had signed up.

When the registration was over, Jian Huizhen took the list and wanted to go to the emperor.

But at this time, an unexpected person came.

Former queen.

Jian Huizhen has always been very popular in the palace, even with her rival in love, she can chat and laugh happily, and she will never tear her face.

But the person she hated the most in her life was the Queen.

And had no intention of reconciling with her at all—

Although she had no formal engagement with the former emperor who was only a prince at that time, they had a tacit understanding with each other, and they waited for Jian Huizhen's age to formally engage.

Who knew that Jian Huizhen's grandfather passed away before getting engaged.

Jian Huizhen has kept her filial piety for three years, so the originally agreed engagement can only be postponed.

Yes, just postponement.

The former emperor, who was only a prince at that time, still kept his promise. At the same time, because he was not considered a favorite at that time, not many ministers favored him, so no one else interfered in this marriage.

Who knew that at a banquet later, the former empress made love to him at a glance, and then despite the objections of her family, she insisted on marrying the former emperor.

The family status of former empresses is better than that of Jian Huizhen, and her natal family is also quite powerful in the court, so it was unexpected and reasonable that Jian Huizhen was abandoned, and she could only watch her fiancé helplessly during the filial piety period Get engaged to another woman.

But Jian Huizhen is not stupid, she knows that this kind of thing can't be slapped, the former empress is not a good person, and the former emperor is also not a good person.

After being sad for a while, she resigned to her fate and accepted the result.

After all, she is the royal family, so how can she still confront others head-on?

At this time, although Jian Huizhen hated the former empress, she did not form an indelible knot with her.If they are strangers at this point, the two may never meet again for the rest of their lives.

But the problem is, when Jian Huizhen came out of the filial piety period, this bullshit queen actually let her be regarded as virtuous and generous, saying that she only knew that there was a verbal engagement between the former emperor and Jian Huizhen before, and she had already seized her love with a knife. It was a mistake, and now naturally a pair of lovers cannot be separated.

After saying this, who the hell dares to go to Jane's house to propose marriage?

Jian's family was about to explode, and Jian Shang was even more furious. He even wondered whether Jian Huizhen had an affair with the former emperor before he got engaged to him!

Jian Huizhen was about to die of anger. Although she agreed to be engaged, both she and the former emperor knew that this was a combination of interests, and they didn't have much affection at all. The former queen made such a move, and she could have married a good person as a wife She can only marry the former emperor as a side concubine.

So from the moment she entered the palace, Jian Huizhen fought against her everywhere, and the two had their own victories, but in general, Jian Huizhen won more times, and in the end, even the former queen fell out of favor.

Now that the former empress appeared, no matter what her purpose was, Jian Huizhen did not intend to let her do so.

Jian Huizhen glanced at her, got up and left with the list.

The former queen, that is, Song Min, saw Jian Huizhen and left as if she hadn't seen her, frowned, and quickly called people to stop: "Jian Huizhen, stop!"

Jian Huizhen turned her head and looked at her coldly: "Hey, isn't this our queen? Where did this evil wind come from, why did it blow you to me?"

Song Min frowned: "The previous dynasty is dead, don't call me queen."

Jian Huizhen twitched the corners of her mouth and sneered: "You still know that you are not a queen? Then why do you let me stop, I have to stop? Give you face?"

Turning to leave.

Song Min was a little anxious, ran up to her, and stopped her with her hand: "Jian Huizhen, I want to sign up too."

Jian Huizhen glanced at her, and said lightly: "Don't wait for the time!"

As he spoke, he wanted to pass her by.

Song Min grabbed him and said, "Let's talk!"

Jian Huizhen paused, looked at her miraculously, and sneered: "What can we talk about?"

Song Min took a deep breath: "There is a misunderstanding between us, we must make it clear!"

Jian Huizhen glanced at her: "There are a lot of misunderstandings between us. If I explain everything clearly, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it for three days and three nights. You should not waste my time. I'm busy and I don't have time to accompany you." play house."

After speaking, his attitude was completely indifferent, and he raised his hand to push Song Min away before leaving.

Song Min grabbed Jian Huizhen's arm again: "The emperor asked you to do this because he trusts you, how can you live up to the emperor's trust?"

Jian Huizhen turned her head, looked at her for a while, and said coldly in her ear: "Do you believe that I will kill you directly? You know, I want you to disappear for a long time."

The queen's pupils trembled slightly, and she calmed down immediately: "Impossible, the emperor will not allow you to do this."

Now that the emperor has noticed the harem, he will naturally not let them have trouble.

If she died at such a time, the emperor would definitely investigate strictly, and Jian Huizhen couldn't get away with it at all.

The two looked at each other for a long time, so long that Song Min felt that her eyes were going to go out, and then she heard Jian Huizhen say: "Since you said there was a misunderstanding, let's listen to it. I want to know exactly what your misunderstanding is. What is it?"

Song Min looked around, then pulled Jian Huizhen to the corner.

"When I fell out of favor, the maid next to you came to see me to make fun of me. When she laughed at me, she mentioned something." Song Wen looked up at Jian Huizhen, "She said that you hate me so much because I was careless when I said something, which hurt me. You have to marry into the royal family?"

Jian Huizhen's eyes were cold: "I'm not careful in speaking? Don't make up for yourself."

If it wasn't intentional, who would talk about the sexual news about her husband and others in a public banquet place?He also said that he wanted to perfect his husband and the other party?

Song Min didn't argue, but looked at Jian Huizhen seriously: "I want to know if this is true."

"So what if it's true or false?"

"If it's true," Song Min looked at Jian Huizhen, "I think it's necessary to tell you the truth."

Jian Huizhen narrowed her eyes: "The truth?"

Song Min said: "I really didn't mean to say that at the banquet. After I married the emperor, I didn't live well. After marriage, I was always a little rusty and indifferent. I didn't understand the reason. It was later, that is, I said I only found out a moment before those angry words that the emperor actually has a marriage contract with you, and he originally planned to marry you after you became a filial piety."

"I was also angry for a while, so I said those words unscrupulously. But I didn't mention your name at the time. Others would link you with the emperor. It was the people around the emperor who took the opportunity to release the news. .”

"After you entered the palace, I wanted to apologize to you, but seeing that you have been targeting me, and you have a deep affection with the emperor... I thought you loved the emperor as much as I did, and knew about this matter, so I acquiesced to the rumors outside. It came out of my mouth."

Now that the parties involved know the "truth", it doesn't matter whether she explains it or not.

But after she knew that she had misunderstood, the grievances between her and Jian Huizhen had already reached the point where she could not understand. Even if she knew that Jian Huizhen was being plotted against, she had no intention of telling her.

After all, it was Jian Huizhen who led her to fall out of favor.

But now, even if it's just for herself, Song Min must clear up the misunderstandings of the year.

Jian Huizhen didn't immediately believe Song Min's words, because if according to what Song Min said, her entry into the palace was dominated by the former emperor, there must be a reason?

Not to mention that Emperor Dog likes her, if he really liked her, how could he have agreed to marry Song Min in the first place?

But apart from liking, why did the dog emperor let her enter the palace even if he planned to ruin his reputation?After the old man of the Jian family is gone, the power of the Jian family is not as good as before. Compared with the Song family, it is even more different. After receiving the full support of the Song family, there is no need for him to think about her...

No, there are still.

Jian Huizhen suddenly remembered something. He had heard the old man mention that he had saved a person back then. That person was inconspicuous at the beginning, but later he was promoted all the way by his own ability, and finally entered the cabinet.

The dog emperor was actually not favored before he came to the throne, and the civil and military officials were not optimistic about his success.

In the end, he was able to stand out among the brothers. After getting married, for some reason, he suddenly got the all-out help of a certain cabinet minister. Only then did he appear in the sight of the Supreme Emperor and other ministers.

And the cabinet minister...

The dog emperor has calculated two people at once, not only playing around with Song Min, but also calculating himself through Song Min, making her speechless, so she can only accept her fate and marry him——

As long as it was someone else who said that, Jian Huizhen had a way to refuse and explain it, but it happened to be Song Wen, the wife of Emperor Dog, who said it. Even if she wanted to explain it, she couldn't say it.

But who would have thought that after the dog emperor gave up his marriage with Jian Huizhen, his wife had already married into the door, and everyone agreed that the two families would walk halfway to the sky, and when there was no more relationship in the future, he would find a way to pass the calculation How about my own wife to plot against my ex-fiancée?

At that time, she was worried about misunderstanding, so she asked someone to check it herself. It was to confirm that the person who spread the news outside was from Song Min's side, so she pointed the signs at Song Min as soon as she entered the palace.

Now it seems that the person who spread rumors outside should have been bought by the dog emperor!

Jian Huizhen gritted her teeth and hated deeply: "The dog emperor deserves to die!"

The emperor is too merciful, the status of the former emperor deserves to be hacked into pieces, but poisoning people is really hard to get rid of her hatred.

Song Min stood aside and waited for Jian Huizhen to vent, and then said: "Since the misunderstanding has been explained clearly..."

"If you said you explained it clearly, then you explained it clearly?" Jian Huizhen turned to look at her, "If it wasn't because of your bad brain, I would have been tricked? Everyone around me has been bought and betrayed by others, what kind of teacher are you like this? Don't be afraid Teach the child to be stupid?"

After speaking, he turned around and left the place.

After Song Min saw that her misunderstanding was solved, Jian Huizhen still had the same attitude, and she drooped her shoulders dejectedly.

It seems that after leaving the palace, she can only go back to her mother's house.

I don't know if my brother and sister-in-law will forgive me...

……

Lin Liu looked at the names on the list and the following registration items, with a smile on his face all the time.

But at the end of the list, she saw an unexpected name: "Song Min? Is she also willing to be a teacher?"

After all, she used to be a queen, can she really put down her dignity and become a teacher?

Jian Huizhen felt a little uncomfortable, but seeing that the suspicion in Lin Liu's eyes did not seem to be fake, she still explained to her: "Your Majesty, don't look at Song Min's dignified and luxurious appearance, she is actually a very naive, naive, and even a little stupid. People, it's very easy to trust others."

It was because of this that she succeeded in calculating many times, even if Song Min succeeded in being rejected by the dog emperor in the end, she didn't have any sense of accomplishment.

"She also likes children very much. If His Majesty believes her, he can actually arrange her to be a teacher in the girls' school that teaches children. She will definitely take good care of the children."

Lin Liu didn't know the relationship between the two, let alone the grievances between them, but from the perspective of a woman, she was a little surprised to hear Jian Huizhen praise her rival in love.

She smiled and said: "If Song Min really has what you said so well, after she passes the exam, I will naturally consider arranging her to the first girls' school."

Jian Huizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said nothing more.

The two had an awkward relationship before, and she was able to explain something to Song Min in front of the emperor, but it was because she felt that she had a bad attitude towards her before, so it was an apology.

After the list was confirmed, Lin Liu asked someone to write down the number of each examination paper, and then sent it directly to Lu Sui's bookstore for printing.

On the third day after the examination papers were printed, the formal examination began.

The content of the exam is varied, from the Four Books and Five Classics, the Six Arts of a Gentleman to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, wine, scented tea, from morning to evening.

There are a total of more than ten items in the exam, and I have been taking the exam for more than ten days.

However, due to the small number of candidates, the test results came out very quickly. Generally, the test ended on the same day, and the results would be available the next day.

By the third day after all the exams were over, Lin Liu had already obtained a complete list.

There are so many female family members in the former court and harem, and most of them are both talented and beautiful. Except for a very few, they have at least taken two exams.

However, the final result was not so ideal.

There are quite a few people who have reached the standards for talents such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but there are fewer people who have passed the exams for the Four Books and Five Classics.

Moreover, the results of talent examinations such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting must be combined with the results of the test paper that Sheng Man personally wrote. Only those who meet the two requirements can become teachers in the third school.

But unfortunately, after adding this score, more than half of the qualified people were wiped out directly.

Also, these women live a pampered life in the palace, even if they have a grudge against someone, they will not directly tear their face apart, they will only compliment each other's sisters with a smile, and secretly revenge.

But most of the little girls outside do things straightforwardly, and those who are used to being in the palace don't know how to deal with such people.

But even if it is only a few, it is enough.

After all, when female students start school, there will definitely not be many students.
