Chapter 99: Happy celebration, the emperor takes the blame again
Aunt Qin advised: "My dear, it may not be related to "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". Maybe it is for other reasons?"
"What other reasons could it be?" The Queen Mother turned to ask Aunt Tian: "You know best what the show girls are doing these days. Please tell me what's wrong."
Aunt Tian carefully recalled: "The slaves have been doing well these days. The young masters have never been more enthusiastic and active in learning "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". They are more serious than learning the rules and etiquette. They forget to sleep and eat every day, from morning to night every day.
, without stopping for a moment..."
Talking about the show girls learning "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" these past two days, she couldn't see anything wrong.
However: "The little masters really studied hard, and they didn't take a lunch break. They studied very late at night and refused to take a rest. The slaves also persuaded them to take a rest earlier, but the little masters were unwilling."
After saying this, Grandma Tian suddenly remembered something:
"By the way, Madam, Little Master Sun went out with another beautiful girl after the exam tonight. I didn't see them when I passed by. I heard that I was going out for a walk. At that time, I just thought that I was too tired from studying and went out to relax. I haven't seen them before."
Pay more attention, it's all your slave's fault. If you find out in time, be careful to guide..."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and interrupted: "This matter is related to the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". Otherwise, how could such a good person think of leaving the palace? Don't blame yourself. If you can't think about it, it's you who persuaded it.
It’s useless.”
Didn’t Grandma Li persuade her to come back? No!
Did the two people who wanted to leave the palace persuade them to come back? Not yet!
There is no use in persuading, they are all forced to leave.
The Queen Mother counted the numbers and suddenly found that none of the three talented women she had specially ordered to enter the palace were all leaving the palace!
The Queen Mother became angry again, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She waved her hand and said, someone must be responsible for this: "If you want to blame it, blame the emperor!"
If he hadn't forced people to learn "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", which was a mess, the show girls would still be learning the rules and etiquette with peace of mind.
Get up early and go to bed early every day. Get a good rest and sleep soundly. You don’t have to be dizzy and tired to the point where you can’t even think about leaving the womb.
When the Queen Mother was selecting, she arranged everything for the show girl and took care of it so that the show girl could live comfortably.
Unexpectedly, the emperor made a fuss and dragged a beautiful girl out of the palace on the first day. Then he did not allow the cage to come in. Later, he sent a young eunuch and took away two beautiful girls one after another.
Now that things like this are happening, Xiu Nu's life is miserable, and it would be strange not to leave.
"At first, the Ai family couldn't figure out why the emperor wanted the beautiful girls to learn "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic". Now it seems that he is trying to force all the beautiful girls to leave in a different way?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that she turned around and asked the three nuns.
Aunt Qin, Aunt Li and Aunt Tian, you look at me, I look at you, I don’t know what to say.
Finally, Grandma Qin considered it carefully and said: "The Queen Mother, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on Master Long Live. The slaves and maids are looking at it. The beautiful ladies are very proactive in learning. Previously, there was no clue that anyone wanted to go to the palace.
When Lord Long Live issued the edict, I didn’t expect it.”
"If you don't blame him, who should you blame?" the Queen Mother asked angrily, and then said: "Why did he make this decree in the first place that Xiu Nu must learn "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"?"
Just torment people in different ways!
The question went back and forth, but it came back again. The Queen Mother could not figure out why the emperor insisted on showing off women to study, even if he did not have to take the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" in the imperial examination.
She also asked Zhang Defa about that slippery man, but he didn't say anything useful. He only vaguely said that some ministers in the court were not very good at calculations, and then he was gone.
The emperor could clearly distinguish between the former dynasty and the harem. The Queen Mother did not believe that her son would be implicated in the harem because the ministers of the previous dynasty were not good at arithmetic. She wanted all the concubines to be good at arithmetic, and only the beautiful women were implicated.
This is unjustifiable.
But at that time, Nanny Qin said that it was a good thing that the emperor cared about Xiu Nu's teachings, and she couldn't think of any other explanation, so the Queen Mother had no choice but to give up.
Thinking of it at this moment, the Queen Mother became angry again and raised this issue again to Aunt Qin and others.
Nanny Qin couldn't figure it out either. She felt that she had missed something in the past, such as why the emperor suddenly became interested in the beautiful girl.
The reason for this was very important, but she couldn't figure it out after paying attention for a long time.
It can only be said that the beautiful girl entered the palace and blocked the palace entrance, which attracted the emperor's attention. Otherwise, there is no other explanation.
It's no wonder that the Queen Mother and these nuns didn't know about it. What the emperor wants to hide is said to be airtight.
Zhang Defa worked hard to keep the emperor's secret. Even when the master of ceremonies suddenly had an imperial master of ceremonies, he personally took action. As the chief internal officer, he used the emperor's authority to find an excuse.
He talked about the truth from ancient times and directly announced that there was already a royal master.
Moreover, the choice of emperor has been decided very early. In front of the emperor, the name is only attached to the Chief of Ceremonies. If anyone asks in the future, just say yes, and don’t mention anything else.
Grandma Tian heard this in a mysterious and confusing way, but when she heard that it was the emperor's decision, she didn't doubt anything.
However, she still followed the rules and asked who the royal master of ceremonies was and if she wanted any cooperation from the master of ceremonies.
Zhang Defa flicked his fly whisk and said, "No need. He will take care of everything. Let me talk if you need anything."
In addition, when the emperor went to Qunfang Hall, his hands and feet were very clean, and no one in the palace he saw dared to say anything.
Moreover, Lihua personally asked for that bastard Xiao Zuozi, and even Lihua didn’t know that this guy had a surveillance role.
Based on the combination of several aspects, there is no place to think of Granny Tian.
When Lihua sent her away tonight, she even tried to test the Queen's Palm in private. Aunt Tian had an expression on her face that she had no idea what to say. She told Zhang Defa that this dead eunuch was confused. She didn't even know who the Queen's Palm was.
, there is nothing to say, except that there is indeed such a person.
Lihua was also led astray. After observing Grandma Tian’s expression and answers, she came to a conclusion: that monster was indeed the royal master, but Grandma Tian couldn’t do anything about him. She couldn’t say anything about him. It seemed that he was really lawless and unyielding.
The madman.
Back to this moment, the Queen Mother and several nuns couldn't figure out why the emperor asked him to teach "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" for no reason.
"There is no need to think about this matter. It is the reason for the emperor's rise." The Queen Mother sat down and sighed: "I have seen a lot of Ai family in recent years, and I am afraid."
As soon as the emperor is interested, he will leave. Even the beautiful women are not immune. The queen mother has developed a conditioned reflex. When the beautiful women want to leave, they will be the first to doubt that the emperor is right.
She can no longer decide whether it is better to let the emperor take his fancy or not.
Nanny Qin was speechless and didn't know how to persuade her. After a while, she saw that the Queen Mother had calmed down, and then she asked, "Do you want to see Young Master Sun and ask her personally?"
Whether Sun Xiuyun goes or stays depends on the Queen Mother's wishes. If the Queen Mother does not allow her to leave the palace, then Sun Xiuyun will not be able to leave.
