Chapter 820 Jealous

Yuxi talked with Pang Jinglun for a long time, if it wasn't for dinner, the two would still have to talk. Yu Xi said: "Mr. Pang is really well-informed."

Pang Jinglun smiled wryly and said, "It's a pity that I don't know how to teach children." More than half of the six thousand taels of silver had already been spent when he arrived. Now I can't teach a few children, where can I find money to pay back! Thinking of this, Pang Jinglun felt a headache.

Yu Xi smiled and asked: "The ruler is long and the inch is short, so Mr. Pang needn't underestimate himself." After a pause, Yu Xi asked: "Can Mr. Pang play chess?"

Mr. Pang [UU Reading 00kxs] nodded and said: "Yes, I started learning at the age of six, and I haven't fallen behind in these years."

Yuxi thought for a while and said: "If you don't mind, I would like to ask you to teach Ah Rui how to play chess, and tell them more about what you have seen and heard outside these years. I wonder what Mr. Pang thinks?"

Mr. Pang didn't expect Yuxi to have such a plan, so he said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid I can't teach it well." He didn't think it was bad to talk to Ah Rui and others about outside things, but he was afraid that his children would listen to him again. I do not understand.

Yuxi smiled: "Tell them what you see and hear as if you were telling a story, and they will understand. As for chess, there is no shortcut, just start from the most basic."

Pang Jinglun hesitated and said, "I'll give it a try."

Yunqing knew that Yuxi was very upset after chatting with Pang Jinglun all afternoon. Although Pang Jinglun is in his forties, he doesn't look old. He looks like he is in his thirties. And Yu Xi kept praising Pang Jinglun's knowledge in front of him, Yun Qing's complexion became darker and darker: "If you don't even know how to teach a few children, what should you keep him for? Send him away quickly."

Yuxi didn't think much about it at first, and said: "He has never taken care of students before, has no experience, and it's normal if he doesn't know how to teach children. But let him tell Brother Rui more about the outside world, which can increase the knowledge of several children. Let their eyes be limited to the one-third of an acre of land in the northwest."

Yun Qing said with a cold face: "The child is still young, it's not too late to learn these things in the future!"

Hearing that the tone was wrong, Yuxi asked in surprise: "What's the matter? Did Mr. Pang offend you?"

Yun Qing snorted and said: "I haven't seen you praise anyone so much?" It's not that Yuxi hasn't praised others before, but it's just that she hasn't praised him so much.

Only then did Yuxi realize that Yunqing was jealous, and she couldn't laugh or cry immediately: "What are you thinking? In my heart, Mr. Pang is a knowledgeable elder."

Yunqing naturally knows that Yuxi has no other thoughts, but he just doesn't like Yuxi to praise other men: "Then you can't praise him like a flower in front of me. You have never praised me like that!" It's so sad.

Yuxi couldn't help laughing, but seeing Yunqing's face getting more and more ugly, she hurriedly said: "Herui, you are a great hero in the world, and marrying you is the luckiest thing in my life! In my eyes, other men are as good as you There's nothing like a strand of hair!"

The corners of Yunqing's mouth turned up, and he said, "I'll let you off this time, and you are not allowed to speak well of other men in front of me in the future."

Yuxi smiled and replied: "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore." It's true that the more you live, the more you will go back, and you will eat this jealousy. But after laughing, a little joy rose in my heart. This feeling of being cherished and nervous is really good.

In the early morning of the next day, Yuxi met with Du Boxin, and tactfully expressed the hope that he could teach them the Four Books and Five Classics.

Du Boxin didn't refuse, and agreed without hesitation. The main reason is that Brother Hao only studied with him for an hour in the morning, and she still has a lot of time to teach Brother Rui and the three brothers for an hour.

Such an adjustment by Yuxi won the hearts of the triplets. Brother Rui came back after class and excitedly said to Yuxi: "Mother, Mr. Pang told us some interesting things about him in Northeast China today,

Very interesting! "

Yuxi smiled and said: "Why is this interesting, come, tell mother." It seems that Pang Jinglun is going to start talking about what he has seen and heard in the Northeast.

Brother Yu hurriedly grabbed the words: "Sir, today you said that there are three treasures, three monsters, and three wonders in the Northeast. The three treasures refer to ginseng, mink fur, and deer antler glue; the three monsters mean that the windows are covered with paper, and the girl wears a big cigarette bag. Raise a child and hang it up. The three wonders are beating roe deer with sticks, scooping fish with ladles, and flying pheasants into rice pots."

Brother Xuan frowned and said, "Mother, why is the window paper stuck outside? Why is the girl holding a big cigarette bag? And why is the child hanging up?" Especially the girl was holding a big cigarette bag, which puzzled him Woolen cloth!

Yuxi said with a smile: "Didn't Mr. Pang explain it to you?"

Brother Xuan shook his head and said, "Sir, the get out of class is over without explaining." They didn't mind staying longer, but Mr. Pang didn't, which made them very depressed.

Although Yuxi knows a lot of things, she really doesn't know the folk customs: "I'll find out tomorrow."

Brother Hao knew what Mr. Pang said and found it very interesting, and told Yuxi that he also wanted to listen to Mr. Pang's class.

It's rare for Brother Hao to ask for a condition, so Yuxi will naturally not refuse. Folk customs are different in different places, and it is not harmful for Brother Hao to know more about him.

After that day, whenever Pang Jinglun told the triplets something interesting. That night, Brother Rui or Brother You will relay these anecdotes to Yuxi and Yunqing. Not to mention Yuxi, even Yunqing listened with gusto.

After a long time, Yunqing said to Yuxi: "It's a pity that Pang Jinglun doesn't become a storyteller." If this person becomes a storyteller, he will definitely go off the rails.

Yu Xi scolded with a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Pang is a learned scholar, how can those storytellers be comparable." Scholars are arrogant, and if they hear Yun Qing's words, they will probably get angry.

Yun Qing muttered: "I'm just praising him!"

Mr. Du and Mr. Pang have their own strengths, and the four children have benefited a lot from learning from them.

In a blink of an eye, it was mid-April. The candidates for the principals of each institution have been basically confirmed. Tan Tuo is the prime minister, An Zike, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Yuan Ying, the minister of the Ministry of War, Tang Chengye, the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Fu Minglang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Gu Taining, the minister of the Ministry of Rites. change. In addition, there are vacancies for the doctor Yushi and the head of the Guozijian.

Yun Qing read the charter written by Yuxi, and asked a little strangely: "Why don't you let them be ministers directly, but serve as ministers?" Ministers are one level lower than ministers?

Yu Xi said: "Their rights are the same as Shangshu, but their status is worse. This also gives them a motivation. If they do well, they can be promoted." If they don't do well, they will naturally be demoted.

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "You have made such a simple matter so complicated." However, he does not interfere with government affairs now. As for Yu Xi, unless it was a big event, she wouldn't tell Yun Qing about ordinary things.

Yu Xi was not angry, but just smiled and said: "Some things seem simple, but in fact there are many tricks in them." Anyway, tell Yun Qing that he is not interested, and Yu Xi is too lazy to talk about it.

Yun Qing is really not interested in knowing the twists and turns: "You just have to know it in your heart." Anyway, he just needs to be a strong backing for Yuxi.

Regarding this arrangement, An Zike, Fu Minglang and the others had no objection, only Yuan Ying had a strong opinion. Because he always thought that he was the Minister of the Ministry of War before, but in the end he only got a minister of the Ministry of War, which was one level behind, but it was a big difference. But knowing that this matter has Yun Qing's support, even if Yuan Ying is dissatisfied, he dare not express it.

After Mrs. Yuan found out about this, she asked Yuan Ying: "My lord, the minister of the Ministry of War is vacant but you are asked to be a servant. What do you mean by the prince and the concubine?" Unconsciously revealed this information, but now he was severely slapped in the face.

Yuan Ying was a little irritable at first, but after hearing this, his face became even more ugly: "How can I guess what the princess is thinking?" He has never been able to guess Han's thoughts.

Madam Yuan hesitated for a while and asked: "Why don't you go ask the prince and see what the prince has to say?"

Yu Cong was executed, which shocked Yuan Ying. For the sake of the Han family, the lord can even be cruel to Yu Cong who has followed him for more than 20 years, and he has some affection for them.

Yuan Ying cursed: "You got kicked in the head by a donkey? Once I ask the prince, I'm afraid I won't even have the position of servant." Doesn't asking the prince show dissatisfaction with the princess's arrangement. The prince is now devoted to the Han family, and cannot tolerate any disrespect for her. If he knew that he had such thoughts, the position of servant minister would be impossible to keep.

Madam Yuan's eyes were red from being scolded: "I'm not doing this for you or for this family."

Yuan Ying was a little annoyed: "If you are really for this family, then stop pampering the second child. Otherwise, he will drag Ah Chen down in the future." Yuan Ying is very satisfied with the eldest son, but is 10,000 dislikes for the second son. .

Every time Yuan Zhi was mentioned, Mrs. Yuan felt a little guilty.

Seeing this, Yuan Ying became more and more angry, but it was useless anyway. There were too many times, and he didn't bother to say: "Go to bed early!" After finishing speaking, he went out.

Madam Yuan knew that Yuan Ying had gone to Aunt Rong's place again, so she cursed a few words angrily, then alluded to wiping away her tears. After accepting those two concubines, Yuan Ying treated her as his official wife as a display. Fortunately, she gave birth to two sons, and the eldest son was up to the challenge, otherwise she was really worried that she would end up like Lin.

Naturally, Yan Wushuang couldn't hide such a big matter from the restructuring of Pickaxe City. Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "It's quite interesting that they don't even serve as ministers."

Meng Nian said: "What is Han's plan?" Everything Yuxi does now has a purpose in the eyes of Meng Nian and others.

Yan Wushuang said: "The Han family should deliberately suppress these officials." If you are dissatisfied with such an arrangement, you will have no chance with Shangshu.

Meng Nian frowned and said, "Is it necessary?" Most of these officials were former frontier officials.

Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "People like An Zike were single-handedly picked up by the Han family. They are the Han family's cronies. Naturally, they don't need to deliberately suppress them. But people like Yuan Ying are different."

Meng Nian said, "Isn't Mrs. Han afraid of backfire?" These people were dissatisfied and united against her, and Mrs. Han would also have a headache at that time.

Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "As long as Yunqing supports her, nothing will happen."

Meng Nian hesitated for a while, but still said what was in his heart: "I now feel that the Han family is in charge of the northwest. Yunqing has become a vassal." No matter what the Han family does, Yunqing will support it unconditionally. No objection. This situation is very strange, and it is not good for them.

Yan Wushuang was silent for a while and said: "If my guess is right, Yunqing has completely delegated power now, whether it is government affairs or military affairs, it is now the Han family who is in charge." In fact, Yunqing is still in charge of military affairs, but the appointment and dismissal of generals Oak-hee's opinion will be sought. As for government affairs, Yunqing completely let go of it.

Meng Nian was a little startled, and said, "Isn't Han the uncrowned emperor?"

Yan Wushuang hummed and said, "I expected Yunqing to back down, but there must be other reasons for his backing down so much."

Meng Nian felt that what Yan Wushuang said was very reasonable: "My lord is very right. It is impossible for Yunqing to make such a big concession just because of the Liu family. It's a pity that our people didn't find anything unusual." Not Yun Qing and Han's confidantes also had no access to confidential matters.

This is also where Yan Wushuang is depressed. For so many years, he has not been able to place a confidant beside Han Yuxi.

Meng Nian sighed, "Speaking of which, until now, we don't know what Han looks like?" He wanted to know what Han looked like, which could make Yunqing so obsessed.

Yan Wushuang was a little surprised, not understanding why Meng Nian's thinking jumped so much.

Meng Nian asked Yun Qing: "Mr. Han and the side concubine are sisters. They should look alike, right?"

Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "She doesn't look like the side concubine. But if you want to know what she looks like, just ask the side concubine to draw a portrait of Zhang Han."

At noon, Yan Wushuang went to Ruyi Courtyard and said to Yuchen, "Draw me a portrait of Han Yuxi."

Yu Chen's complexion changed slightly, and he asked, "What does the lord want Yu Xi's portrait for?" It's not a good thing to ask for Yu Xi's portrait suddenly.

Yan Wushuang looked at Yuchen and said, "What do you think I'm going to do? Take the portrait and ask a mage to do it and curse the Han family to death?" If the method is really useful, he doesn't know how many years he has been dead, how can he live until now? .

Yuchen quickly denied it, and said: "My lord also knows that I haven't seen Yuxi for fourteen years, and I don't know what she is like now."

Yan Wushuang said: "Just paint what it looked like at that time." The Han family is comparable to Wu Yan in the Tang Dynasty. As a man, he would naturally shy away from such a woman. As an opponent, he has a crush on the Han family, and being able to be an enemy to such a person is also a great joy in life.

Yuchen didn't want to paint at first, but when she saw Yan Wushuang smiling, she gave in spinelessly: "I will hand over the portrait to the prince in the afternoon."

Yan Wushuang hummed and said, "I'll wait." After speaking, he went out.

Nanny Gui saw off Yan Wushuang and hurried back to the bedroom. Seeing Yuchen sitting on a chair in a daze, he asked, "Ma'am, what did the lord tell you?"

Yuchen came back to his senses and said: "He asked me to draw a portrait of Yuxi, and I agreed." She especially hated her weakness, hated why she couldn't act tough in front of Yan Wushuang.

Nanny Gui was slightly startled, and she didn't know what the prince wanted Han Yuxi's portrait for.
