Mrs. Mo said he would not agree

Cao Liu was afraid of the arrival of the interrogation.

Especially seeing Xue Qing's face again, even if it didn't kill him.

In his opinion, Xue Qing is an executioner who betrayed his family and became the emperor's lackey!

Xue Chengnai is a senior member of the cabinet, holding several positions, and acts with arrogance, but the glory of the Xue family did not extend to Xue Qing, a distant relative, but made him extremely cruel.

Thinking of Xue Qing's methods, Cao Liu couldn't help but shudder.

It can't be his fault.

Cao Liu said to himself, even if other people came over, they would make the same choice as Cao Liu when confronted with Xue Qing's persecution and life-threatening threats.

From the swearing of the prisoners beside him, it can be seen how much they hate Cao Liu.

But Cao Liu felt even more hatred and anger in his heart.

The burning anger and fear almost made him distort his face.

Because since his "accomplice" was also imprisoned, Cao Liu knew clearly from their slander why his mother tried her best to come to see him that day, and why she was anxious to persuade him to tell the truth , that's not something he can handle alone...

It turned out that at that time he was really only one step away from death!

Whenever Cao Liu thinks of this matter, he feels scared.

They actually thought that if Cao Liu died, everything would disappear and the clues would be interrupted... Cao Liu was thinking in his heart and snorted coldly.He might not hesitate to let him die for Cao Guogong and Princess Rongxi, but he is not so kind to die for profit.

He is willing to do something for this, and he is willing to bear the possible price, but he is not willing to be the only stepping stone!

If those people had the idea that Cao Liu would die obediently, they were really wrong.

From the very beginning when Cao Liu agreed, it was enough to see that he was not a kind person.

Gritting your teeth?

does not exist.

The reason why Cao Liu didn't say anything before was because he thought that Emperor Zhengshi would never wake up again. At this moment, the court was temporarily unable to execute him. When the turbulent situation appeared, Cao Liu would naturally have a chance to be rescued...

But when this opportunity disappeared, how could he continue to work hard!

After Cao Liu's knee was broken, he didn't get better because of the harsh environment in the prison.

But after he said what he could say, Xue Qing allowed Princess Rongxi to meet him again, and that time, Princess Rongxi brought him a doctor and a good plaster.

Although Cao Liu didn't know if he could go out, his guilt towards Princess Rongxi grew day and night.

This time, I'm afraid I'm going to hurt my parents.

Cao Liu lay on the wooden bed, staring at the dark wall with his eyes open, slowly counting the time.

Cao Liu was sent out to travel by Cao Guogong when he was in his early ten years old.

At that time, it was the time when the court was slightly turbulent, and it was also the last few years of Emperor Yongning's life.

He was sent by Cao Guogong to the academy under the name of Gu Liufang.

In the past few decades, Huaimin Academy has become the most famous academy in the world, and Cao Liu spent five or six solid years there.In addition to making friends with the children of many aristocratic and powerful families in Huaimin Academy, he also traveled abroad.

Cao Liu and Lin Huan actually recognized each other.

In Gu Liufang's academy, there are not only rich and powerful, but also poor children.

Of course, there are many embarrassing people like Lin Huan who are not very favored, but not neglected.

The teacher doesn't care about the affairs between the students, but all disputes can't involve teaching and the academy.

In the eyes of the teachers in the academy, there is no difference between rich and poor backgrounds.

Just like Lin Huan.

When Lin Huan was in Huaimin Academy, he was quite outstanding.

However, Lin Huan has his own master. He is studying at Huaimin Academy, which is equivalent to borrowing.

Only for about a year and a half.

Lin Huan has been wandering outside, and he has seen more than the one-acre land in the capital.

What he saw was the world, the people, and life.

Cao Liu's feelings were not as profound as Lin Huan's, but he also began to pursue people who had the same thoughts as him. Gradually, he began to get in touch with some of the more radical students in Huaimin Academy.

In the beginning, it was just some heated arguments and the occasional outing.

Immediately afterwards, there was a deeper level of union at the family level, but until this time, Cao Liu did not realize how powerful this group of people would be when they gathered in one place.

The children who will be sent to Huaimin Academy may not be the most core children in the family.

They are just a temptation, a backhand.

Due to the limitations of their status, they mostly have aggressive ambitions and desires.The more people who can't get up and down, the more they want to go higher.

And Cao Liu also entered their core bit by bit in this gradual temptation.

How he changed his mind and what he did after returning to Beijing has already been told to Xue Qing, so there is no need to elaborate.

In the beginning, it was just an unthinkable idea.

But after Emperor Zhengshi succeeded to the throne, what was originally a blasphemous idea gradually became an authentic idea.

The new emperor is a ruthless and crazy person, once he strikes, he will show no mercy.

Whether it is the clan or the aristocratic family, they have been hit repeatedly. If they can't find another way, under the rule of this emperor, it may be difficult to suffer for the past few decades.

However, several rebellions by the royal family and the rebellion of the clan gave them an opportunity.

...Especially when the First Prince is young!

If you can't be a master, can't you even control the possibility of a prince?

Cao Liu stared straight at the ceiling, feeling that the gloomy and cold stones were too oppressive, always feeling like they were about to fall.

It's like a boulder suddenly pressed down, making people uneasy.

Just like his current situation.

As the son of Cao Guogong and Princess Rongxi, Cao Liu didn't have to get involved in these matters.

But he clearly remembered that many years ago, Princess Rongxi also lamented the former glory. In fact, these external powers have been gradually shrinking since Emperor Yongning. In order to prevent the power from being abused, the late emperor had already made Quite a few restrictions.And Emperor Zhengshi took a further blow. Before that, he only targeted the kings, and then the aristocratic families. Cao Guogong was originally a dignitary inherited from the beginning of the dynasty. How many of this group of people are left now?

The emperor's power is constantly expanding, and Cao Liu consciously wants to curb this process, which is not stupid.

But his mistake was that he participated in it and was too ostentatious.

After Zhengshi Emperor's measures became more radical and dissatisfied many powerful families, Cao Liu continued to receive contact from these "friends" in the past. Not only contact, he also used this to spy on the plans of many families.

They are not necessarily trying to overthrow a dynasty.

Just another day.

However, it is never possible to put all eggs in the same basket when doing things in the family.

Cao Liu closed his eyes and sighed deeply.

No matter how hard Xue Qing digs, the people who can be involved at most are the people in the prison today.He can tell who it is... Zheng Shijie from the Zheng family, Xu Hui from the Xu family, Kang Haisheng from the Kang family, Hengzheng from the Heng family, Jiao Shicong from the Jiao family... He was thinking about these people in his heart According to the name taboo, they are either branches of the same family, or they were originally separated from the family, or they are the children of concubines.

piece.

Cao Liu's fingers are entangled in one place, they are all chess pieces.

Even he is no exception.

Cao Liu used his identity to travel around the capital, delivering news, eavesdropping on information, hooking up with women, and using them to collect information in the most inconspicuous places. These are all common methods.

Because they could reasonably appear anywhere, and they would not arouse suspicion at all.

And this time something happened...

Cao Liu frowned slightly, knowing that the root cause was from the Jiao family.

Jiao Shicong, and the dead Jiao Mingxiang...

He subconsciously wanted to turn over, but suddenly touched his wrapped knee, which made him shiver in pain, but couldn't help panting, muttering to himself, "Why, why is the Jiao family being targeted?"

This is the real one step wrong, step by step wrong.

"Cao Liu, Cao Liu—"

The jailer came over from the dark aisle and knocked on the iron railing with a wooden stick, "The Minister of Dali Temple wants to interrogate you." Cao Liu, who was still thinking about things in a mess just now, immediately became bitter, wishing to put himself His head was hidden under a pile of straw.

He sat up slowly, grinning at his injured knee.

Cao Liu is no stranger to this.

It's just that he thinks that he has said clearly what he should say, even if he is allowed to pass, it will be...

Cao Liu, who moved into the room step by step, was stunned. He found that besides him, there were many familiar people here, and it was impossible to forget the angry and resentful eyes projected by each of them.

Cao Liu subconsciously took a step back, looking wildly, and suddenly saw the seat where Xue Qing was sitting.

And he didn't dare to look at the breathtaking instruments of torture in the distance.

It was a wide chair with a shelf for stacking things at hand.And on the left hand side, in the place that was originally empty, something like a wooden stake was propped up at some point, and a piece of... leather was hanging there?

Cao Liu stared at the thing and shivered subconsciously.

There was a feeling of horror and fear in his heart, but he couldn't help staring at it. What is that?

Why, there is this daunting, yet familiar texture.

Then, why does it look so...human skin?

Cao Liu trembled violently, subconsciously wanting to bite his thumb.

Why, that skin...

Whose skin is it!

...

"They won't admit it so quickly."

In Jingyang Palace, Zheng Mingchun, who was preaching and getting rid of doubts, shook his head when he heard the eldest prince's question.

He put down the scriptures he was teaching, paced back and forth in front of the eldest prince with his hands behind his back, and said with a half-smile, "Eldest prince, you also know my background. It only depends on talent and character, so this has little influence on me. However, there are not many people like my master, no matter where they go, most people will naturally disperse into small groups."

The eldest prince sat upright, stopped the movements of his hands, and nodded.

Zheng Mingchun continued, "But this is not absolute, because eggs cannot be put in the same basket, no matter what decision the family makes, it is impossible to put all the power on it. I will appear in front of you and be your Master Prince, although there is no interference from the Zheng family, I might as well be their backer."

He nonchalantly uses himself as an example.

"I symbolize the part that is loyal to the royal family. Of course, if they succeed, I can also be used as a means to manipulate you." Zheng Mingchun shrugged, as if he didn't care how shocking what he said, "So, a family Here, there are a few voices, that's normal."

"This doesn't explain my problem just now." The First Prince said flatly.

Zheng Mingchun twitched his lips. Although the eldest prince is young, he is a monkey.

Zheng Mingchun "Because there is no real evidence."

Pointing the pointer in his hand on the table, he shook his head and said, "The Jiao family, Jiao Shicong, Cao Liu, Lin Huan, and the Lin family...these places are on the bright side, and they are certain, and they will definitely be dealt with." Needless to say, the gang of villains who started the attack were basically wiped out. But the Zheng family, the Kang family, and the miscellaneous families, there is no sufficient evidence at the moment. The only witness is Cao Liu, at most Add Lin Huan, what else?"

This is also the reason why so many dignitaries from aristocratic families would be furious when Mo Jingchun made a move.If they all follow Mo Jingchun's rude attitude, then just lift the plate and forget it!

Eldest Prince, "The eldest son of the Lin family will be escorted to the capital. Whether there is any evidence at that time...that's worth talking about."

Zheng Mingchun said with a smile, "I can't say, Lin Deming would rather die than obey?"

The eldest prince hehe, "Isn't that just right? Your Majesty is worried that no one will bump into him, let him go on a killing spree, and let him vent his depressed emotions."

Zheng Mingchun shook his head helplessly, the eldest prince was right.

The emperor indeed had such a heart and means.

Emperor Zhengshi, who was discussed by them, was lying lazily in Changle Palace to recuperate.

During the year of Changle Palace, the Anshenxiang was temporarily removed. It is said that the old imperial doctor believed that although the Anshenxiang was used for pacification, it was another extreme effect when the emperor was recuperating.

With a big wave of the emperor's hand, he was replaced by Yun Luoxiang.

That was the spice He Mo Jingchun used to use.

It's not particularly expensive, but the smell is a bit strong. At the first smell, it feels a little different from Mo Jingchun, but it is mixed with the smell of Mo Jingchun, and it becomes a taste that makes people eat it.

Emperor Zhengshi sat on the rug, half-heartedly correcting the memorial.

The wound on his back had already been removed by the old doctor himself two days ago, so the sharp pain was nothing.The old doctor himself was very vigilant, all the utensils he used were scalded with hot water and then grilled. Those who didn't know thought he was preparing some barbecue utensils.

There is a small doll lying on Zhengshi Emperor's lap.

When Liu Hao came in, he noticed the existence of the little puppet, his face contorted for a moment, and then he calmly moved his eyes away.

This is just a small doll, this is not Mo Jingchun.

He repeated it in his heart, which weakened a little bit of the weird feeling.

...It's really, really similar.

Liu Hao complained in his heart.

How did His Majesty make such a similar doll?

This could not help but remind him that the Taifu also showed this strange expression when he saw the little doll that His Majesty carried with him a few days ago.

Does the Taifu also think... this thing is so scary?

Liu Hao restrained himself, leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Kang have just entered the palace."

Emperor Zhengshi said casually, "The queen mother will take care of them."

Liu Hao leaned forward, "Yes. Your Majesty, there is news from the front that General Mo retreated [-] miles after being defeated. It is said that it is because of a new weapon sent to the front line by the rebels in Mingchun, which can directly bombard the city wall."

This is the military situation that was just sent.

The soldier who rushed back quickly passed out from exhaustion as soon as he delivered the news.

Emperor Zhengshi raised his eyebrows, picked up the little puppet and laid it on his shoulders, then sat upright, "What is the number?"

Liu Hao: "Not many, but the victory lies in the surprise, which almost caused heavy losses to the general. Fortunately, the general saw the abnormality in the deployment of the enemy in time, so he made adjustments early."

Emperor Zhengshi was thoughtful, if even the new cannons were used, it really meant that King Mingchun had nothing to do.

He hadn't planned to raise troops so soon, but was forced by Emperor Zhengshi to have no choice, and after losing Chen Wenxiu, he lost half of his support.Now that troops have been raised in a hurry, the number of weapons he expected is not even half of what it was before.

Naturally, it is necessary to save some.

Chen Wenxiu said that even if King Mingchun's speed is a few years earlier than that of the imperial court, that's fine.

King Mingchun gradually expanded and matured through constant failures and explorations.

No matter how mature it is, technical constraints still make it impossible to produce it quickly. Even this new type of cannon cannot be used as soon as it is used at the earliest stage.

and……

Emperor Zhengshi glanced at Liu Hao, and said with a faint smile, "Don't say that at this point, He Mingdong still doesn't know where their smelting place is?"

Liu Hao smiled apologetically and said, "This servant thinks that he should have already found it."

Emperor Zhengshi didn't take the momentary defeat to heart, he pondered for a moment, and said to Liu Hao, "I remember that the people in the Military Weapons Supervision have always wanted to meet Chen Wenxiu?"

"Yes, they hope that Chen Wenxiu can give them more advice."

Emperor Zhengshi "asked Chen Wenxiu to go to the Military Weapons Supervision."

Liu Hao was slightly surprised, "The women's college..."

Although he didn't pay much attention to it, Chen Wenxiu's identity was so important that news would come back from time to time.Liu Hao also knows that the women's college is gradually getting on the right track. A few days ago, Chen Wenxiu also made some activities to go to the countryside to farm. Although it was a bit vulgar, but after careful consideration, it was quite noteworthy place.

Emperor Zhengshi said casually, "Then go to the Military Weapons Supervision for half a day. If there is nothing wrong with the Military Weapons Supervision that day, maybe she can walk freely."

"Here."

Just when Liu Hao went out and came back, he noticed that His Majesty started playing with that little doll again.

From Emperor Zhengshi's cautious actions, it is enough to see that His Majesty cares about this doll.

He first poked his little face with his fingers, then rubbed his little belly with his slightly rough fingertips, then pinched his calf, and slowly pushed his pants up, revealing a small section of his fair ankle .

Liu Hao saw in a daze that there seemed to be a ring on that small ankle.

He silently looked away.

I thought to myself, could it be that His Majesty poured all his thoughts of not being humane to outsiders on this little puppet?

Liu Hao decided not to watch Emperor Zhengshi's actions anymore.

God knows what His Majesty is going to do.

As a result, he also avoided the more obscene behavior of Emperor Zhengshi.

Emperor Zhengshi is indeed not a gentleman.

...

Ministry of officials.

It was snowing heavily today, and the white snow covered the messy traces.

Mo Jingchun held a hand warmer in his hand.

The hand stove was covered with a beautiful woven bag, besides, Tao Niang also made Mo Jingchun a suit of clothes.

Serve as that missed birthday gift.

Mo Jingchun's birthday has passed for a long time, and even he himself can't remember it at the most chaotic time.If Tao Niang hadn't sent the clothes she made by herself these two days, he would have forgotten about it.

It's not a big deal, Mo Jingchun didn't take it to heart.

He looked at the documents slowly, and conveniently put the unsatisfactory ones under it, and we will talk about it when the time comes.After several months of tossing around, Mo Jingchun has gradually started to get started with the affairs of the official department.Among them, the most important ones are naturally the examination of merit and the selection of officials, as well as the need to enter the palace to report on their duties, which also need to be arranged by the Ministry of Officials.

And since Mo Jingchun came back, staring at the content of the test, he felt a little dizzy.

He sighed in his heart, there are so many joints, and there is no shortage of gray areas among them.Mo Jingchun put the hand warmer aside, then frowned slightly, and picked up the last one.

Mo Jingchun looked at the content above, and decided to discuss with the left and right servants later.

As soon as this thought flashed across his mind, Mo Jingchun felt as if someone had pinched his face.

Mo Jingchun "..." He didn't even move to cover his face, he thought numbly, that little thing is in His Majesty's hands, it's really a big game.

The only thing that's okay, maybe it's...

His Majesty still remembers that the two of them are still sick and cannot do certain things.

Mo Jingchun's face twisted abruptly, and he lowered his head abruptly.

Of course, not being able to do it doesn't mean that His Majesty won't tease her.

His fingers wandered around sensitive places, and then he walked away at the critical moment without changing his face. Emperor Zhengshi did not do such things less often!

Mo Jingchun gripped the pen tightly, as if trying to break it.

Fortunately, after a while, the strange provocative feeling disappeared.He heaved a sigh of relief and leaned back in the chair with a thin layer of cold sweat breaking out from his back.

If Emperor Zhengshi messed up at a critical moment, it would be really fatal.

Mo Jingchun let out a sigh of relief, didn't continue to think, but called the left and right servants over.

...

At the beginning of December, the undercurrents under the capital finally calmed down a bit.

Of course, this also prevented Xue Qing from finally digging out the things he was interested in from the prisoners, and obtained a lot of evidence indirectly.

Under these conclusive evidences, even Gu Liufang was implicated.

Although this matter has nothing to do with him, the source lies in Huaimin Academy.On the third day after the evidence of this matter was submitted, Gu Liufang resigned, saying that she was too old to be reused, old and decayed, and unable to continue.

Emperor Zhengshi did not allow Gu Liufang to retire and return home.

Gu Liufang asked to resign three times, and Emperor Zhengshi declined three times.

This matter was temporarily pressed.

But in the edge of the vortex, Chen Wenxiu didn't have the energy to take care of these undercurrents. She had already been caught and devoted herself to the great smelting work, which made her want to die.

Chen Wenxiu has theories and blueprints, and other things have to be sharpened by craftsmen and blacksmiths. All her experience is only the experience of King Mingchun before, but for the military inspectors, it is very difficult. Already is enough.

Chen Wenxiu sometimes wondered who she was in the past, and why she had such weird things.

But no matter whether it was Emperor Zhengshi or King Mingchun, they didn't seem to think that she was a monster or something after knowing it. This somewhat gave Chen Wenxiu a little confidence, and she stopped thinking about it.

This day, when she dragged her tired body out of the military prison, it was already mid-afternoon.

This was the reason why she strongly demanded that she go to the academy, which was why the military inspectors had to let her go.

In the Military Weapons Supervision, there were many people who despised Chen Wenxiu at first. Why should she be a teacher if she is a woman?

But Chen Wenxiu didn't have anything else, but her words were very slippery.

As long as she didn't meet people like Emperor Zhengshi and King Mingchun, why was she afraid?

Love will not come.

Of course, there are more people in the Military Weapons Supervision who are not ashamed to ask questions. They don't care whether Chen Wenxiu is a man or a woman, or a dog. Once she enters the Military Weapons Supervision, she will almost never get out.

"Scary." Chen Wenxiu said sweatingly, "Mad scientists are the scariest."

Liu Hong followed behind her, silently remembering the name "Scientist", and then said with lingering fear, "Just now, the servant girl almost thought that she was going to fight Mr. Zhang." Otherwise, she might not be able to bring Chen Wenxiu out.

Chen Wenxiu muttered, "I have already made an appointment with the students, and I want to take them out today, how can I renege on my promise and lose weight?"

She slowly climbed into the carriage and sat in it, watching Liu Hong dexterously jumped up and told the coachman to go to the direction of the academy.Chen Wenxiu said enviously, "If I want to be as flexible as you, how long will it take?"

Liu Hong said sincerely, "Impossible. Maid, I have been practicing since I was a child. If you start working hard now, you may be able to achieve [-]% in five years."

Chen Wenxiu let out a weary "Oh", five years, that is really too long.

After a long while, Chen Wenxiu mustered up her energy, sat up again, looked at the flowing scenery outside the window, and said suddenly, "Liu Hong, do you think that in the future, all women in the world will be able to study?"

Liu Hong was silent for a moment, "It's difficult, but it's not necessarily hopeless."

She knelt beside Chen Wenxiu, wanting to pinch her legs, but Chen Wenxiu retreated subconsciously, looked back at her helplessly, and dragged her up, "You are a good bodyguard, don't just kneel beside me ...Uh, if you have to kneel, just pretend to be outside, I don't like to see people kneeling."

bodyguard?

Liu Hong sat up obediently and wrote down the word.

At the same time, he did not forget to answer Chen Wenxiu's previous question, "Girl, studying requires money, and it's not small money. The imperial court has implemented the imperial examination system for many years, and has gradually let everyone in the world know the benefits of studying. There are only a few of them. You also know that farming depends more on men’s physical strength, and the world is based on farmland, so men’s status is respected. With limited energy and money allocation, if only one person in a family can study, it must be Men will be given priority."

Chen Wenxiu was surprised when he heard Liu Hong's words.Liu Hong's idea is both realistic and a bit ahead of her time.

Chen Wenxiu frowned, what does it mean to be ahead?

She always had thoughts and words that she didn't understand.

Seeing that Chen Wenxiu was not unhappy, Liu Hong continued, "The servant girl was lucky enough to be favored by the Lord, and was able to read and write. And the servant girl also taught a lot of people with good relationships in the future, at least know how her name is. Write. This is what the servant girl thinks. The actual situation cannot be changed temporarily, but it can be gradually affected.

"Even if the common people give priority to sending male children to study, let them know that female children can also study. This kind of influence is subtle. And women from powerful families don't have to worry."

She smiled.

"I heard that after Princess Menghuai returned to her fief, she also opened a girls' academy in Menghuai, and donated "Yunshengji" as the treasure of the academy. This is the second half of the year, and now this The news has been widely circulated, and many families are ready to move."

The appeal of "Yun Sheng Ji" is indeed very strong.

Chen Wenxiu shook her head and laughed, "You're right, you have to eat food one bite at a time, and do things one by one. Even if I can't see it in my lifetime, it will be promoted for a long time like the imperial examinations in the imperial court. Just be different."

Among other things, Emperor Zhengshi had no objection to the matter of women studying.

Chen Wenxiu rubbed her chin and smiled.

Or, it's not a matter of conflict or not at all.

In the eyes of this emperor, there are not many things worth caring about, right?

During those few brief meetings, Chen Wenxiu somewhat felt that this His Majesty was really different, unusual... crazy.

Chen Wenxiu restrained her mind so that Liu Hong would not see her complaining.

Even though she got along well with Liu Hong, she also knew that Liu Hong was a spy sent by Emperor Zhengshi, and the surveillance and protection were carried out simultaneously, so there were some things that could not be said in the open.

When Chen Wenxiu returned to the academy, dozens of female students were already waiting in the lobby.

Mrs. Liu said with a smile, "If you don't come back, they will be dying." Ever since Chen Wenxiu took these students out last time, they have been thinking about going out.

Fortunately, they are obedient and sensible enough.

Mr. Liu's eyes lingered on a few of the female students, especially these few, whether it was reading aloud or writing poems, he was more or less pleasantly surprised.

Their sharpness and intelligence are no less than men.

Chen Wenxiu respected Mr. Liu very much.

Because he is the only one among these teachers who is serious about teaching, and will also make adjustments according to the differences of students, Chen Wenxiu is really overjoyed.

Chen Wenxiu nodded to Mr. Liu with a smile, said a few words, then looked at the students, and said loudly, "This time, we went to the Bieyuan Farm, and the master allowed us to stay there for one night before returning, so you go Get ready, let's go together later."

In fact, it is the villa of Mofu.

Mo Jingchun learned of Chen Wenxiu's need by accident, so he borrowed Mo's Biezhuang.

"Yes."

The female student went back happily, while another middle-aged man hurried over, "Girl, the carriage has been rented."

Chen Wenxiu nodded.

Of course, she can also choose a bullock cart, or some other tools.But considering that this women's academy is run by Princess Meng Huai after all, Chen Wenxiu is not so eclectic at Liu Hong's suggestion.

She was thinking about money in her heart, and decided to wait for the spring to go to alms again.

Hey, it's not her face anyway.

Chen Wenxiu touched the mask on his face, and then arranged for those students who were ready to get on the bus.After the dozens of female students entered the large carriages outside, the entire girls' academy fell silent.

Master Liu saw them off, closed the door with the porter, and then headed towards the backyard.

Masters like them can stay in the academy for free.

But the courtyard where the teacher lives is separated from the place where the female students live, and there are guards.

This is the change Chen Wenxiu made after she came.

"Liu Fengbao, that's just a mere girl, why are you so obedient?" Not far away, Lu Ren, who had just turned from where he was staying, frowned, "You are born in Juren, and you will end up in two years. It's Jinshi, those poor..."

Liu Fengbao said slowly, "Brother Lu, someone climbed out of such a poor situation, don't bother Brother Lu to tell you." His tone was calm but firm.

Lu Ren frowned suddenly, flicked his sleeves, and went back.

Liu Fengbao heaved a sigh of relief.

He is not the kind of person who loves to deal with people, but he also knows that there are not many people in this women's academy who are really willing to teach.

If Princess Meng Huai is still there, these people will teach seriously because of the name of the princess.But now that the concubine is going back to the fiefdom, even though most of the people in charge here are left behind by the concubine, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it takes several months to write back and forth letters, who would really care?

Perhaps Liu Fengbao looked down on this women's academy at the beginning, and decided that it would not be able to run in the end.

But now that more than half a year has passed, he feels more and more short-sighted in the past. Among these female students, how many talents are really surprising.And they might be used to suffering, just like him before, they would frantically absorb knowledge whenever they had the opportunity, and Liu Fengbao couldn't help but get serious about that feeling of hunger and thirst.

He thought, maybe ten years later, he can really teach a female officer?

Liu Fengbao shook his head with a smile, and sighed, he was probably influenced by Chen Wenxiu.

This female dean is really quite active.

Liu Wenxiu, who was sitting in the carriage, sneezed several times, couldn't help opening the curtains, and said to herself, "Who is scolding me behind my back?"

Except for Queen Mingchun, she shouldn't have offended anyone, right?Could it be that the military inspectors were taught by her to be human?Impossible, they don't even know what Chen Wenxiu's name is, otherwise, it's from the academy?Alas, she doesn't want to stay in the academy except Mrs. Liu... Wait, is it Lin Huan?

Speaking of Lin Huan, Chen Wenxiu hadn't seen him for a while.

Chen Wenxiu, "Liu Hong, you went to Liu Huan's place recently, have you ever seen him?"

Liu Hong shook her head, "The place where he stayed is fake."

Chen Wenxiu raised her eyebrows, "He's so mysterious? It's a coincidence that we met a few times ago." She also knew that she was just fishing with a straight hook, and it was useless.

After thinking about it, maybe in the past few days, she will find a way to kick out those unusable teachers.Wouldn't it be a waste for those moths who receive money but can't use it, and live in free dormitories?

Chen Wenxiu covered her nose with a handkerchief, and made a decision.

"Ha Qiu—"

Inside the dungeon, Lin Huan sneezed heavily.

Now in the twelfth lunar month of winter, all he had on him was the cotton padded coat that Mo Jingchun ordered to send him before he came in.

Lin Huan had no choice but to gather his clothes tighter, otherwise the coldness in the prison today would be too much for people to endure.He is not someone like Cao Liu, and he can still get one or two visits. From the beginning to the end, he is the only one.

Lin Huan put his arms around the cotton-padded jacket, thanked Mo Jingchun in his heart, and then sighed.

If his master sees his degraded appearance, he doesn't know whether he will ridicule or laugh. He only hopes that his old mother can be rescued as Mo Jingchun promised, otherwise...

"Bang bang bang—"

The jailer walked up to Lin Huan and knocked on his railing.

Lin Huan looked up subconsciously, but it was a little strange.

He remembered that at this hour, it was not a meal delivery, nor an interrogation.

Except for the three days before he came in, Lin Huan was never called for interrogation again.And his cell was not in the same place as Cao Liu's and the others. Although it was simple and dark, it was not damp and ventilated. During the coldest days, he was given a torn quilt.

Lin Huan got up and walked to the door.

"Brother jailer, what's the matter?"

The jailer did not speak, but handed over a roll of paper, and then continued to patrol outside.

Lin Huan was slightly stunned, and noticed that the jailer was the one who gave him the torn quilt that day.While thinking this in his heart, he opened the note with his fingers.

— has been rescued.

With just three words, Lin Huan almost fell to his knees in front of the prison door.

He read these words again and again, surprised and delighted, his eyes were slightly hot, and he almost shed tears.He crumpled the roll of paper, stuffed it down his throat, and swallowed without chewing.

Lin Huan's forehead was pressed against the ground, and the cold made him very sober, but tears could not stop falling out.

It's not that he didn't think about bringing his mother out.

But Lin Deming knew very well that his concubine was the only chess piece that could check and balance Lin Huan. How could it be possible for Lin Huan to take him away?
