"Master, the person has been taken away."
Zhan Lezhang, dressed in green clothes, stood in the gazebo by the water, and turned his head when he heard the words: "The bait has been put down, and the next step is to see if the fish biting the bait is too big or not."
The stone fell into the water, and the calm water rippled.
With the help of Daqi, the five princes of Beimang reversed their decline and once again fought evenly with Azalu.
It will take some time for Bei Mang to decide the winner. The news that King Han found the orphan of the fourth prince first came from Shu.
"Is it the fourth prince who went crazy because of his wife's death? His child is still alive?" Jiang Ling was very curious when she heard the report from the leader of the secret guard.
"The news from the spies over there is that the fourth imperial concubine gave birth to a son before her death, and the confidant maid quietly took the child and escaped. The child has been living among the people for many years, and was only recently found." Xiao Shengyun put down the secret letter.
"King Han has been looking for this child all these years? Is he on good terms with that fourth prince?"
"His mother and concubine and the fourth prince's mother and concubine are sisters."
Jiang Ling nodded, this makes sense, it is of course a good thing to have her own brother's blood back.
"Will those rumors have something to do with King Han?" The place where the rumors first appeared happened to be in Shu, could this be a coincidence?
"There is currently no connection between the two."
Of course, not being found doesn’t mean there isn’t one.
"I will send someone to continue to pay attention."
"Since the fourth prince's child is still alive, wouldn't the power left by the fourth prince be found?" Jiang Ling suddenly thought of this matter.
When Lian Xu handed over the jade talisman to them, together with the jade tablet left by Master Qianwu, Xiao Shengyun used them to gather some forces.
It was also during this process that they learned that Lian Su's father had a certain relationship with the fourth prince, and the Lian family wanted the power in his hands, so they planned to kill the young couple and controlled Lian Su in the government.
"The premise is that the person King Han finds is really of the blood of the Fourth Prince. There was no news about this child for so many years, and it suddenly appeared. Those people will not act rashly until the authenticity is confirmed."
"That's right," Jiang Ling looked out the window, "It's raining again."
This year, there was a lot of rain in spring, and it had been raining continuously for several days. Jiang Ling originally planned to go out of the palace to have a gathering with the Ninth Prince and others, but because of the continuous rain, she never went.
The Ninth Prince has his own mansion outside the palace, and the time to enter the palace is much less. Counting the days, the last time Jiang Ling met him was a month ago.
The next day finally cleared up, and they didn't have to go to court today, Jiang Ling and Xiao Shengyun ate breakfast and changed into casual clothes to leave the palace.
The street is very lively.
Jiang Ling and Xiao Shengyun went to the academy first.
After Xiao Shengyun ascended the throne, he started to establish a school. The family was not happy at first, but Xiao Shengyun took a tough attitude. The Zhang family, the Cao family and other big families also sided with the emperor for some reason. The reluctance of these aristocratic families could not change anything , the Academy was still established.
The academy includes teaching at various stages, and recruits students from all over the world. Although the scale is not too large now, Jiang Ling believes that the scale of the academy will become larger and larger in the future.
It will continuously send new power to Daqi.
The current person in charge of the academy is Zhang Shiyu, a girl from the Zhang family. She has been there since the establishment of the academy, accompanied the academy all the way, and is very concerned about the academy.
"These great scholars still don't want to come?" Xiao Shengyun looked at the list and frowned.
He was talking about several famous Confucian scholars. If the academy wants to further develop and compete with the aristocratic family's reserve of knowledge, it is not enough to rely solely on the imperial family. Although the Zhang family and the Cao family are willing to help, there is too much knowledge monopolized by the aristocratic family. More knowledgeable teachers are needed to come to the academy.
In the past two years, he has found some famous Confucians one after another. Those who are willing to come are very few in number. Although he is the emperor, it is not easy to use power to force these people to come. What he needs is willingness to come and learn. Gong teaches and educates people.
"Your Majesty gave such favorable conditions, why are they unwilling to come?" Jiang Ling was puzzled.
"Some of them feel that coming here will hinder their reputation, and some of them may be influenced by the aristocratic family." Zhang Shiyu explained.
Jiang Ling knew about the fact that the aristocratic family opposed the imperial court running a school. For a period of time, there were ministers submitting proposals every day in an attempt to make Xiao Shengyun change his mind. Unfortunately, Xiao Shengyun was determined to do this, and ignored these proposals. The aristocratic family knew that they could not control the emperor's thoughts, so they had to stop their flags and drums.
On the surface, there is no objection, but in the dark, they have not stopped making small moves. For example, these great Confucian scholars are influenced by the aristocratic family, and very few are willing to come.
The aristocratic family hates the existence of the academy, but the common people are very happy, and those who are capable send their own children to the academy.
They don't know the confrontation between imperial power and family power, they only know that being able to study is a good thing.
There are even enlightened parents who send girls from their families to the academy. This is also because there have been a group of female students in the academy since the beginning, and the imperial court has also issued a decree that if a woman has outstanding knowledge, she can also enter the imperial court as an official.
Originally, the imperial court had a lot of quarrels over the matter of the academy, but after this decree came out, the direction of the quarrels changed immediately, with some agreeing and some opposing, the quarrel was so excited that they wished to fight on the spot.
The eldest princess and Princess Lianzhu had a good sense of this decree, and they stood in line as soon as they came out. Although they did not enter the court, they still had a certain influence in the court.
The two walked around the academy.
"What's wrong with the academy? It's their loss if they don't come." Jiang Ling was indignant.
"Why haven't you calmed down yet?" Xiao Chengyun pinched Jiang Ling's fingers, "There's a dim sum shop on South Street, it's very popular, do you want to go later?"
"Going to go."
Xiao Shengyun gave an order, and the driver turned the carriage around and headed towards South Street.
In the evening, the sunset slanted to the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the whole world with a hazy golden edge.
Jiang Ling and Xiao Shengyun got out of the carriage and blended into it.
"Huh?" Jiang Ling tugged at Xiao Chengyun's sleeve, "That seems to be a movement."
Xiao Shengyun looked over and saw Zhan Lezhang talking to a tall man. The man turned his back to them and couldn't see his face.
Zhan Lezhang also saw them, said something, and the man who turned his back to them turned back.
——It is Dingyuan Hou Shizi.
Seeing their attention, Jiang Ling beckoned, "Music."
After speaking, he pulled Xiao Shengyun and walked over.
"You are..."
"I heard that there is a dim sum shop here, my brother and I came to try it." Zhan Lezhang pointed to the crowded dim sum shop.
"We are too, let's be together when we meet, we haven't seen each other for a long time, is Yue Zhang still in good health?"
Zhan Lezhang shook his head: "There is an imperial doctor in the imperial hospital to take care of it, so there is no problem."
"That's good."
The dim sum shop is very popular, Xiao Shengyun was about to order his followers to buy it, but Jiang Ling stopped him: "Anyway, there is no rush to go back, husband, let's line up together, it is also a pleasure."
So, four people lined up in the team.
Living and working in peace and contentment, the people were very enthusiastic, and they chatted with them as they talked.
Several people are outstanding in appearance. Although they are dressed in simple clothes, it is not difficult to see that the materials of the clothes are excellent, and even if the enthusiastic aunt asks about them, they are not married.
Jiang Ling grabbed Xiao Shengyun's hand: "We are already married."
Although the aunt had regrets, she turned around and asked about Zhan Lezhang and the other two.
"Auntie, he's married too." Jiang Ling remembered that Zhan Lezhang had a partner, so she hurriedly interrupted Auntie's words.
The aunt glanced at Zhan Lezhang, then at Dingyuan Hou Shizi who was protecting him, and slapped her head: "Looking at my stupid eyes, I didn't even realize that you are a couple, if this is the case, don't take what I said just now to your heart. "
Jiang Ling was about to explain that he was Zhan Lezhang's elder brother, but the aunt had already started another topic.
"I don't know if you have heard the rumors," the aunt lowered her voice, "It is said that the first emperor came to the wrong place. If you want me to tell you, this is all nonsense. Everyone can see it for all to see, and it is definitely the Son of Heaven recognized by the heavens."
Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "Where did this rumor come from? Why have I never heard of it?"
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. Anyway, few people believe it. Everyone is not stupid. How can you believe it casually? The person who first spread the rumor was arrested by my old man and told him to spread it." Angry, "The government attaches great importance to this matter, and even rewarded my old man with silver and a plaque. If we encounter such a thing in the future, we will report it to the government."
Jiang Ling couldn't laugh or cry.
Queue up to them quickly.
Under the enthusiastic introduction of her aunt, Jiang Ling chose a large pack of dim sum.
"Your man is a good man. You buy so much, and he doesn't say a word. You can deal with such a man." The aunt looked at the other two men waiting for them, and praised, "That man is also a good man." Yes, it is a blessing to have such a husband."
Xiao Shengyun watched from the side, and was not surprised that Jiang Ling chatted with a random stranger. There is such a magical thing about Jiang Ling, which can easily make people lower their guard.
In just a short time, the aunt and Jiang Ling chatted about various topics.
After chatting for a long time, Jiang Ling felt a little thirsty, so Xiao Shengyun took them to the teahouse next door.
After drinking two glasses of water in a row, Jiang Ling put down the glass: "Why did this rumor spread to the capital?"
"It's not surprising, since it was spread by someone with a heart, it would be strange if it didn't spread to the capital, but the person who spread the rumor probably didn't expect that the common people would react like this." Zhan Lezhang picked up his teacup and took a sip.
It was reported to the Yamen by the people spontaneously, and the rumor spreader would probably be pissed off after knowing it.
Jiang Ling imagined that scene and smiled happily.
As Jiang Ling thought, the person who planned this matter behind the scenes was really very angry.
"What did you say?! The person who spread the news was arrested by the people's newspaper? Isn't this the case in more than one place?" When the head of the Ukishi Sect heard the news, he doubted life.
"It's fine if those untouchables don't listen, why are they still reporting to the officials?"
"My subordinates just got the news today that the imperial court will reward those who report this matter to officials, so now the people are looking for the people we sent everywhere..."
The subordinate was also surprised by this development. He lowered his head and said, "Master, what should we do next?"
"You still ask me?" The leader of the Ukiyo Sect was so angry that he threw the cup on the person kneeling below, "If such a small matter can't be done well, what use is it for me to support you?"
The subordinate lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.
Suddenly getting angry, the leader of the Floating World Sect stood up abruptly, and said in a harsh tone, "Did the lackey of the imperial court find out our territory? Order it down, I want him to have it! Come! No! Come back!"
Zhan Lezhang, dressed in green clothes, stood in the gazebo by the water, and turned his head when he heard the words: "The bait has been put down, and the next step is to see if the fish biting the bait is too big or not."
The stone fell into the water, and the calm water rippled.
With the help of Daqi, the five princes of Beimang reversed their decline and once again fought evenly with Azalu.
It will take some time for Bei Mang to decide the winner. The news that King Han found the orphan of the fourth prince first came from Shu.
"Is it the fourth prince who went crazy because of his wife's death? His child is still alive?" Jiang Ling was very curious when she heard the report from the leader of the secret guard.
