Two-quarters of an hour later, Luo Junyao returned to Jingyuan with all Xie Chengyou's property in his hands.
"What are you holding, young lady? I will help the young lady get it." When he was holding his sword at the gate of Jingyuan, he was relieved to see Luo Junyao coming back.
Master Zhu ordered that no one outside the garden should see the girl, but the girl insisted on going out and even asked the eldest son for the direction of the courtyard. She was always worried about it.
Luo Junyao handed the small box in his hand to Fengjian, and Fengjian almost missed it with one hand and hugged it with both hands.
"It's so heavy! What is this?"
Luo Junyao took out a beaded flower and put it in Fengjian's hair, and said with a smile: "Go and collect the bill, I'll give this to sister Fengjian."
Fengjian was a little flattered, "How dare you accept such a valuable thing from a girl?" Although he only glanced at it twice, Fengjian could tell that the pearl flower was worth a lot of money.
"It's just a beaded flower. It should be worn by a beauty like Sister Jian. Do you not like me if you don't accept it?"
Fengjian felt a little helpless and could only say: "I would like to thank the young lady for the reward."
"You're welcome." Luo Junyao said with a smile, "It's been a hard work for Sister Jian these past two days."
Fengjian shook his head repeatedly, "It's all a slave's job. It's not hard work. It's a pity that the girl will leave tomorrow. It would be great if she could stay a little longer. Jingyuan would be a little more angry."
Luo Junyao immediately remembered Wei Changting's statement that Fengjian regarded him as his future mistress, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Fengjian doesn't seem to know who he is yet, so it's no wonder he misunderstood.
"It's not good for me to disturb His Royal Highness the Regent's peace here. Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and everyone has to go home for reunion." Luo Junyao said.
Fengjian felt a little sad and whispered: "Since the death of the late emperor, the prince has been at the border all these years. In addition to attending the palace banquet this year, I am afraid that the prince has spent it alone."
Luo Junyao was startled, "Won't the regent return to Prince Mu's mansion?"
Xie Yan is the legitimate second son of Prince Mu's Mansion, and his biological mother is still alive, so according to the rules, he has to go back to Prince Mu's Mansion for the holidays.
Feng Jian said: "Your Majesty grew up beside His Majesty the Great Ancestor and the Queen Mother. Even in the past, he spent most of his time in the palace. But now that His Majesty the Great Ancestor and the late emperor are no longer here, it is not convenient for the Prince to stay in the harem."
Luo Junyao remembered that he had overheard King Mu's attitude towards Xie Yan and knew that the relationship between father and son was very unharmonious.
I just don’t know why. Doesn’t Princess Mu also love her son?
This is really incredible.
Take her father for example. Even though her father doesn't seem to deal with Xie Yan very well, if he had a son as powerful as Xie Yan, I'm afraid his tail would be raised to the sky.
But this is someone else's business, and as an outsider, she can't say much.
Luo Junyao was lost in thought when he heard Feng Jian whisper: "Your Majesty is usually alone, and when he has nothing to do, he plays chess alone in the pavilion without even an opponent."
Luo Junyao raised his head, followed her gaze, and saw a tall and upright figure sitting in the pavilion not far ahead.
Who is it if it’s not Xie Yan?
Xie Yan, who was playing chess alone in the pavilion, noticed the two people's gaze and looked up, just in time to meet Luo Junyao's gaze.
Luo Junyao calmly looked away, and Fengjian said happily: "The prince has seen us, would you like to go over and say hello, girl?"
"..." No, no need, right?
Luo Junyao thinks that a handsome man is beautiful when he is beautiful, but every time he sees him, he always feels inexplicably awkward.
If she does it two more times, she will have a psychological shadow.
However, seeing the people in the pavilion slightly nodding towards him, Luo Junyao went over anyway.
"Your Majesty."
Xie Yan looked at the girl who was standing in front of him, who was a little restrained, and motioned for her to sit down and talk.
"Going to find Xie Chengyou?"
Of course, Xie Yan did not miss the heavy small box in Feng Jian's hand who was standing outside the pavilion. After a moment's thought, he knew what was inside, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Luo Jun shook his head and then heard Xie Yan ask: "Can you play chess?"
Luo Junyao shook his head matter-of-factly, "No."
Xie Yan didn't care. He gently stroked the chess piece with his fingertips, and his eyes fell on the Youyue Thorn hanging on Luo Junyao's waist.
"Miss Luo's skills are rare. With talents like this girl in the martial arts academy, it will surely be just around the corner to restore her former glory."
Luo Junyao didn't expect Xie Yan to say this, and he became a little happy and said with a smile: "Others say that going to the Martial Arts Academy is not doing your job properly. Only the prince said to restore the past glory."
Xie Yan said: "There used to be many wonderful women in Anlan Academy, and the same was true in the Martial Arts Academy. How can we say that they are not doing their jobs properly?"
Luo Junyao noticed that he was talking about the past, which showed that Xie Yan also disapproved of the current Anlan Academy.
Lying on the table with some depression, Luo Junyao sighed in a low voice: "But now there are almost no students in the martial arts academy, and the imperial court doesn't seem to like the martial arts academy very much."
Xie Yan said: "In the last years of Dongling, the royal family withered and had no successors. All the heroes in the world came together, and wars continued. By the time Emperor Gaozu established his great power, the land he could control was only one-third of Dongling. At that time, the population of the entire Central Plains was
Less than half of what Dongling was at its peak."
Luo Junyao said gloomily: "Is it because of this that women should be locked up at home to give birth to children?"
Xie Yan shook his head, "Anlan Academy was on the decline in the late Dongling period. Gaozu needed to unite the high-ranking families and old nobles to stabilize the world. And these people...are the ones who dislike Anlan Academy the most. Gaozu and the late emperor almost
I spend my life as a soldier, and I actually don’t have much time to care about other things.”
The great ancestor and the late emperor spent their entire lives in the military. The current emperor is still young, the regent is away at war all year round, and the empress dowager is old and sick. It is self-evident who controls the government.
Dasheng now seems to be unified in the world and has a strong military, but in fact it is supported by two peerless generals, Xie Yan and Luo Yun.
Inside, it is actually the result of years of war, and the people's livelihood is in ruins. The situation in the court is chaotic and dangerous.
Five years ago, if Xie Yan hadn't made a decisive decision and killed the three kings, war would have started again and the sky would have been filled with war.
We don't even have time to deal with people's livelihood and government affairs, let alone other matters.
Luo Junyao never left Shangyong. Shangyong was under the control of the Xie family from the beginning, so it did not suffer from war.
If she had the chance to leave Shangyong, she would have the chance to see what the real Dasheng looked like.
Luo Junyao asked: "Now that the Qi people are defeated, do they no longer have to fight? Everything will be fine in the future, right?"
Xie Yan smiled lightly and said, "Maybe."
Maybe it's better, maybe it's worse.
Of course, Luo Junyao also knows that reality is not always what people want, "Actually, I also know that this cannot be entirely blamed on others. For ordinary people, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the most important. When the world is not good, it is difficult to survive. This
At that time, men were born with physical advantages over women, and women's status would inevitably be suppressed. It was not enough to rely on men to be open-minded and tolerant, but women had to work hard on their own. But... if they are suppressed for too long, those who want to
Women who work hard will slowly be domesticated and forget their original intentions, right?"
Only by truly improving productivity so that women can survive even if they are independent and by popularizing basic education can women's status be truly improved.
And for these, Anlan Academy alone is not enough.
Xie Yan's eyes were deep and he looked at the obviously frustrated girl and said, "No way."
Luo Junyao raised his eyes to look at him, but Xie Yan looked away, "There would have been people like Princess Rui hundreds of years ago, right?"
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Yes." Can that guy Xie Anlan be considered an ordinary person?
Luo Junyao looked at him curiously, "Your Majesty, why are you telling me this?" Xie Yan doesn't seem like someone who likes to chat with others.
Xie Yan pondered for a moment before saying: "Perhaps the Empress Dowager does not want to see Anlan Academy really decline."
"so?"
Xie Yan said: "Maybe the revival of Anlan Academy can start from the Martial Arts Academy."
Luo Junshao's eyes lit up, "So, the prince will not suppress the martial arts academy?" This was what she wanted to ask the most.
It is currently known that most officials in the imperial court are opposed to the Martial Arts Academy. The Empress Dowager supports the Martial Arts Academy but is old. Empress Dowager Zhu tried her best to suppress it, but because the Empress Dowager is still alive, she cannot make it too obvious. The young emperor is too old.
Small ideas don't matter.
His Royal Highness the Regent's opinion is of course very important.
"nature."
Luo Junyao smiled and said with crooked eyes, "Thank you, Your Majesty, you are such a good man."
"..." This is the second time today that I heard someone say that he is a good person, Xie Yan.
