Chapter 46 The Chief of Ceremonies ushered in a shocking explosion
That’s great!
Zhang Defa responded happily: "I obey the order, and with the guidance of Long Live Lord, the beautiful girl will definitely reach a higher level!"
Yuchi Gong nodded slightly, strode forward, and began to consider another question: "How about we eliminate the beautiful women who don't learn well and eliminate them from the palace?"
There are already too many stupid people in the palace, so don’t let go of the beautiful girls who are too stupid, as it will save you too much trouble.
But can that little thief learn well?
She is so smart, it is possible, right?
But everyone has their own strengths, so it’s hard to tell.
Think again, think again...
Yu Chigong, who usually kills decisively, suddenly became a little entangled. He was still entangled as he walked, and he still didn't make up his mind until he went to the flower viewing banquet.
Zhang Defa, who was standing there, suddenly reacted and his pupils dilated. Just now, what did Long Live Master say he was teaching Xiu Nv?
"Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"? If you don't learn well, you will be eliminated?!
It’s over!!!
Zhang Defa recalled what he just said over and over again, and asked the little eunuch beside him to confirm again and again: "Did you hear clearly what I just said about "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?"
The answers he got were all correct, and his mind was stunned.
That's "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". Scholars may not even be able to understand it, but it's used to test talented women?!
Long Live Lord seems to want to eliminate the show girls who can’t learn well?!
Damn it, that beautiful girl must not be wiped out?!
No, no, no, before all the beautiful ladies are annihilated, the people in charge of the ceremony must be annihilated first!!
It’s over, it’s over, the Queen Mother is going to kill him!!!
Zhang Defa was so annoyed that he slapped himself lightly, hating that he was too slow to react and failed to stop him.
The little eunuch waiting in front of him to deliver the order was a little confused: "Mr. Zhang, what's wrong with you?"
Zhang Defa came back to his senses and took a look at him, "What's wrong? I'm going to die!"
He waved his hand: "Go and deliver the message." Let the person in charge of the ceremony worry about it.
Zhang Defa understood that he could not stop the emperor's decision, but if he gave him some advice, it would be easier for him to do the job when the Queen Mother asked about it, and the flowers on his butt would not be so bright.
Now that things have come to an end, let’s die. For Long Live Lord, he was loyal and courageous and deserved his death!
When the little eunuch saw him looking like he was sacrificing his life generously, Zhang Er was confused and rushed to the Chief of Ceremonies to deliver the order with this thunderous heart.
Chief of Ceremonies, Granny Tian, who just came back from Qunfang Hall, before her stool was warm, there was a roar and was overturned by this thunder!
"What are you talking about, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?" Grandma Tian changed her calm look and became a bit messy, and her voice was distorted.
"Yes, we will teach you from now on!" The little eunuch was very calm and stressed without any omission.
After conveying the decree, he left directly, ignoring the uproar behind him, hiding his merit and fame.
Grandma Tian's head was buzzing, she sat back on the stool with her mouth open and her eyes wide open. She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
The colleagues in the Chief of Ceremonies around me were anxious: "What should we do? Do you know "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?"
An old eunuch was so anxious that he got angry: "No, who would do that..." He swallowed the next words and did not dare to say them anymore.
An old lady felt dizzy after hearing this: "I've never heard of it, what is that!"
Eunuch Yan's expression was not good either. Hearing this, he said slowly: "I do understand a thing or two. "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" is a book of arithmetic essentials. It involves the calculation of acres of land, grain conversion, earth and stone work calculations, taxes and other daily production matters.
Applied techniques, division of square fields, corn, failure to divide, small and wide, business success, loss of both, surplus and deficiency, equations and Pythagorean, there are nine chapters in total, with questions and techniques, but..."
Seeing that he spoke so eloquently, the others seemed to have seen a savior, and asked with hope: "Just what?"
Eunuch Yan's face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and he stamped his feet: "Hey, I don't understand either!"
He just heard about it. He teaches etiquette and rules. Why should he learn that stuff if he has nothing to do? It’s not like he can’t figure it out.
It's over now! Everyone's hearts suddenly felt cold, and they all looked at Aunt Tian and said anxiously: "Aunt Tian, think of something quickly, what should we do?"
If you don’t comply with the order, the Chief of Ceremony will do everything!
Aunt Tian came to her senses, and as soon as she took action, she knew that the little eunuch from Cangchen Palace would be up to something bad!
This matter cannot be resolved, she must go to the Queen Mother!
"You go ahead and teach me. I'll go and come back." Aunt Tian hurriedly dropped these words, raised her legs and walked towards the flower viewing banquet.
At the flower viewing banquet.
The Queen Mother is sitting in the center of the pavilion, surrounded by palace concubines, all of them are in bloom, dressed in different styles, smiling coquettishly, and the atmosphere is harmonious.
If you look carefully, you will find a hint of weirdness in the harmony.
Under the warm spring sun, some palace concubines wrapped their whole bodies tightly, except for their faces, and even their necks;
Some palace concubines cover the lower half of their faces as if they are shy, and cover it with their hands from time to time, fearing that the wind will blow away the veil;
Some palace concubines have very long sleeves, and they completely cover their hands and refuse to expose them. Even when they take things, they have to use their sleeves;
Some concubines rarely speak, they just smile and nod, and if they can't, they pronounce "um", "ah" and "ah" in monosyllables.
Counting it down, there are different shapes. Although they are good-looking, there are only a few that are as open and bright as ordinary people.
The Queen Mother listened to the concubines talking and laughing, smiling peacefully, but her heart was filled with bitterness.
In today's harem, the concubines have more than enough ambition but not enough power. Those who used to compete for favors came one after another, and those who were behind became servants one after another, and they once again rushed to the streets one by one until they became miserable.
Seeing the Queen Mother anxious, but helpless, she thought that they were all beautiful concubines, so why didn't her son look at her more often?
Well, even if some of these behaviors are abnormal, aren’t some of them normal?
Mentioning this is another troublesome thing for the Queen Mother.
Nowadays, there are more and more concubines behaving strangely.
The Queen Mother Chuchu didn't know what was going on. How could the palace concubine lead such a good life, but suddenly some people became abnormal.
After doing it many times, the Queen Mother figured out some rules by herself.
Every time the emperor got close to a certain concubine, the behavior of that concubine would most likely become abnormal soon after.
The Queen Mother felt that this must have something to do with her son, but she couldn't understand how it was related to the law. She refused to tell the concubine when she asked her. Judging from the emperor's behavior, everything was normal, nothing unusual.
After searching and searching, she couldn't find the reason. In the end, the Queen Mother could only blame the fate on her son's destiny. Her son's destiny was too tough and ordinary people couldn't get close to him, which was why these concubines couldn't bear it.
So the Queen Mother asked Qin Tianjian to calculate the fate of the palace concubine and found that everything was fine.
It can only be a matter of the palace concubine being too fragile and unable to bear the favor.
The Queen Mother knew that the emperor's temperament was somewhat difficult to maintain, but in her opinion, it was quite good. Her son was unparalleled in beauty, filial and courteous, and gentle in treating others, so there would not be any big problems.
She was so focused on political affairs that she neglected the harem. She had not given birth to an heir three years after taking the throne, which made the Queen Mother very worried.
However, the emperor was filial, and every time the queen mother asked him to get closer to the concubine, he agreed, which made the queen mother feel relieved.
In addition, the Queen Mother also created many opportunities for the palace concubines. The purpose of this flower viewing banquet was to allow the emperor to get closer to the palace concubines.
