Since it was rare for Xiao Ruxue to come back to her parents' house today, King Xian specially ordered the cook to cook a large table of dishes. Since there were too many dishes to finish, he could only invite Xiao Ye and his wife to come over and eat together.
.
It happened that Xiao Ye had not had time to ask the imperial chef to prepare lunch. After receiving the notice from King Xian, he came over together. The reason why he did not bring the two children was because the two children went to play with Ning'er.
Normally, we would eat at Hanwang's Mansion during meals, just like going to kindergarten, because the two children and Ning'er would have fun playing in the luxurious playground built by Hanwang's Mansion every day, and they would not miss Shu.
Both husband and wife doted on their daughter, so they naturally liked to see their daughter having fun, so they reluctantly agreed to have the two girls have lunch at the Han Palace for a long time.
At this time, Xiao Ye was worried about his two daughters. You must know that Xueer also started by staying at Brother Xu's house for lunch.
First I had lunch, then I had breakfast, and finally I didn’t go home for dinner.
This little sister of mine, as she eats, she becomes someone else’s.
Xiao Ye was very doubtful whether his two daughters would make the same mistake again.
But there is nothing we can do about repeating the same mistakes. Who doesn’t have a huge amusement park in Hanwangfu at home?
After all, it is still my own family. Although she has been married for two and a half years, Xiao Ruxue is not unfamiliar at all and still has the best expression on my face.
Of course, Xiao Ruxue would also pick vegetables for Xu Qing from time to time. Such an intimate gesture that was so common between husband and wife almost broke Xian Wang's back molars. You must know that his daughter had never done it for him before.
Food, when he thought that Xu Qing could eat Xueer's food every day, King Xian felt chilled in his heart.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and coughed: "Brother Xiao, I want to discuss something with you."
Xiao Ye suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "I wonder what is going on?"
Xu Qing said: "It's not a big deal. Now that Ning'er, Xin'er and Xi'er are no longer young, it's time to go to school. What do you think, Brother Xiao?"
Xiao Ye nodded and said: "That's true, but now that we are far away from the capital, should we order someone to go to the Imperial College to invite two doctors? This is not a difficult task."
Xu Qing said, "Perhaps there is no need for a doctor. These three children are not yet ready to learn advanced knowledge. At this age, it is enough to be able to read and arithmetic. We can teach them ourselves, and then we can hire a doctor when they grow up."
It’s not too late to come over.”
The wise king nodded and said, "The way of education is also a top priority for our country of Chu. We must not take it lightly. No matter how good the atmosphere at home is, it is not as good as the atmosphere in the school. If you have the conditions, you still have to send it to the school."
For the best."
Xu Qing coughed and said, "How can you see this? Why go to school if you have a famous teacher at home?"
The wise king glanced at Xiao Ye; "He is the result of my education at home. He has three great Confucian scholars and six doctors of arithmetic. But after teaching him so hard, he can't do arithmetic. He even asks you to cheat on poetry. You can figure it out for yourself."
Bar."
Xu Qing: "..."
Xiao Ye; "..."
Even Xiao Ruxue's head lowered. There was no doubt that she had a share in asking Xu Qing to help him cheat. If it hadn't been for that cheating, she wouldn't have known Xu Qing...
Based on this calculation, cheating is actually beneficial?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ruxue's originally lowered head lifted up again, and all the shame she felt just now turned into pride.
My husband was made by cheating!
Xu Qing pressed Xiao Ruxue, who looked ashamed just now but became extremely proud in an instant, and didn't realize what was going on.
Could it be that Xueer discovered that cheating is something to be proud of?
Xiao Ruxue's temperament and thinking were too out-of-the-box. Even after sleeping with her for two and a half years, Xu Qing still didn't fully understand Xiao Ruxue's temperament. One moment, she looked depressed and the next moment she became proud.
No one knows what is going on in Xiao Ruxue's head.
"Husband, husband, eat this shrimp, this shrimp is delicious."
“There is also this fried lamb with green onions, which is also delicious.”
Xiao Ruxue served Xu Qing with vegetables, which quickly piled up in the bowl. Xiao Ruxue still had a happy and proud expression on her face, which made King Dexian almost crush his chopsticks.
The Xian Wang coughed and said, "Xue'er, my father wants to talk to Xu Qing about something, and I want to change places with my husband."
Xiao Ruxue immediately grabbed Xu Qing's arm, with a wary look on her face: "No, no, there is a seat on my husband's right. Father, please sit on my husband's right."
Xu Qing also put down his chopsticks, stretched out his hand and held Xiao Ruxue's little hand on his arm. It was cool and a little warm, and it was very comfortable to hold it in his hand.
At this moment, the Xian Wang looked at Xu Qing with even more resentment.
Xiao Ye coughed, brought the topic back on track, and said, "If the atmosphere in the school is better according to my father's idea, do we still need to build an Imperial College here? No one will come here."
The wise king said, "Your idea should be a little bolder."
Xiao Ye: "Build two?"
Wise King: "Have you never thought of moving the capital here?"
"What? Move... move the capital?" Xiao Ye was obviously stunned: "This is a big project, why are you spending so much effort?"
Wise King: "Money."
Xiao Ye: "???"
Xu Qing: "!!!"
The wise king looked at Xu Qing and said: "When I made you king, it was written in the imperial edict that within five years Weizhou's tax revenue would reach the scale of the capital city. Now..."
Xu Qing: "It's been two and a half years."
Xiao Ye: "It's been three years since I came here, right? It's not just two and a half years."
Xu Qing: "Almost, almost. Anyway, Weizhou's economic scale has surpassed that of Beijing in two and a half years. The task has been completed ahead of schedule."
Xiao Ye: "..."
The Xian King glanced at Xu Qing and said, "But I never expected that your tax revenue would exceed that of the capital. It's not because you have really increased Weizhou's economic scale in the past two and a half years, but it's because the capital's economic scale has dropped."
!”
Isn't that right? Why is the capital so rich in the first place?
Apart from the capital itself, the most important point is the numerous monopoly commodity operations of the Guoshangyuan. Originally, Xu Qing sold a large number of land to build workshops around the capital, and even his own fiefdom.
There is an endless stream of caravans coming and going every day, bringing in raw materials and taking away finished products.
Taxes in the capital were rising steadily, but when Xu Qing came to Weizhou, he took most of the National Business Institute away with him.
The result was that the capital's tax revenue fell off a cliff, which was then replaced by a sharp increase in Weizhou's tax revenue.
Now that Weizhou is supported by the State Council of Commerce, the capital city is slightly inferior to here.
What are you waiting for if you don't move the capital?
