The general's letters and reports are naturally related to the Qi State. Yan'er is so happy because since the third prince arrived in the Qi State, all good news has been received.
The third prince first interrogated the Shanghe Village case in Xijing on behalf of the emperor, produced personal and material evidence, and demoted the King of Qi to a commoner.
The state of Qi thus became the county of Qi.
Without waiting for the powerful families of Qi to take various actions, the third prince immediately began to implement strategies to recruit scholars, regardless of common people and poor families, regardless of age, and selected the officials in charge of the sixteen counties of Qi County.
At that time, the whole Qi County was in a state of excitement. The gentry and common people all prepared for the exam. After the news spread, not only Qi County was excited, but also the scholars from surrounding counties and counties came in one after another——
"Because there are too many people taking the exam." Chen Danzhu read the letter and said to Princess Jin Yao with joy, "The third prince had to order that this exam is for Qi County, and only people from Qi County can participate. Now he originally threatened to
The powerful and aristocratic families who left Qi soon stopped leaving, and people from other places flocked in. Now everyone is vying to be a native of Qi County."
The King of Qi and the State of Qi became a thing of the past in an instant.
Princess Jin Yao listened with a smile and said: "It is so powerful to win soldiers by strategy. Conquering the world is comparable to thousands of troops. Chen Danzhu, how can you be so powerful and come up with such a good idea?"
Chen Danzhu held his face and smiled with his eyes: "I am very powerful, but His Majesty and the Third Prince are even more powerful."
It is easier said than done to win talents through strategies, but it is complicated and difficult to do. It is not what everyone said before. The third prince can just lie down and do nothing.
Everything needs his intervention and everything needs his care. The third prince did not sit in the Qi Palace, but traveled around Qi County.
"Are you too tired?" Chen Danzhu said to Princess Jin Yao, "After all, your health is good."
Princess Jin Yao smiled and said: "Don't worry, the accompanying physician is a direct disciple of Zhang Yuanpian."
Chen Danzhu made a sound and showed her the letter with a smile: "The general's letter said that the third prince was in high spirits and was surrounded by women from Qi County wherever he passed. If it weren't for the strict guards, he would have to drive to the carriage.
Flowers were thrown on top.”
Princess Jin Yao nodded: "I know." Then she looked at Chen Danzhu and said, "Danzhu, I know all this, why don't you ask me? My father can receive the movements of the third brother all the time."
Chen Danzhu folded the letter and newspaper carefully with a smile: "How can it be the same? Your Majesty is the father of the princess, not mine. It is still inconvenient. I'd better find my adoptive father for convenience."
Princess Jin Yao laughed.
"What's so funny?" Chen Danzhu didn't understand, and taught her earnestly, "Princess, the general has done so much for the court and has never had any children in his life. He is old now, so it is not against the rules to recognize a junior as a filial piety."
Princess Jin Yao raised her head and nodded: "Yes, yes, it's not against the rules." She stopped laughing at first, but when she saw Chen Danzhu's serious look, she immediately fell down laughing again.
Chen Danzhu put the letter away and asked curiously: "Is there something wrong with the general?"
Otherwise, why would she laugh like this?
Princess Jin Yao stopped laughing for a moment and coughed lightly: "You don't know, General Iron Mask is a very strange person. I heard my father said that he kept to himself when he was young and had nothing else in his eyes except training soldiers.
At that time, his family also arranged a marriage for him, but he refused to say anything, saying that he was the youngest son in the family, and he had brothers to carry on the incense, so let him go, and his parents had no choice but to give up."
Chen Danzhu nodded: "He is a very interesting person."
"So, it sounds really funny for a maverick like him to recognize his adopted daughter." Princess Jin Yao said with a smile.
Chen Danzhu said: "The general is an eccentric person, but he is also a kind-hearted person."
Although General Iron Mask had countless lives on his hands during his lifetime, he was not bloodthirsty, so he was willing to listen to her request and stop the imminent war.
In addition to avoiding the flood and catastrophe of the soldiers and civilians in Wu, the smooth progress of recruiting soldiers now is also due to him. It was he who stopped her on the road, and forced His Majesty to return to the fields in court, which benefited thousands of poor families.
student.
Princess Jin Yao rolled her big eyes: "There are many interesting people in this world. Do you know my sixth brother?"
The sixth prince? Although he didn’t know why he suddenly said the sixth prince, Chen Danzhu still nodded: "I heard the general said - why are you laughing again?"
Princess Jin Yao covered her mouth with her hands to suppress her smile and said solemnly, "I just want to laugh when I think of my sixth brother."
Is the Sixth Prince so funny? Chen Danzhu was curious. She was familiar with the Sixth Prince in her past life, but she knew nothing about him except his name and his sickly identity. Oh, and she also knew that the Crown Prince wanted to kill him in the future.
Is the Sixth Prince an interesting person? What’s so interesting about a sick prince who almost never leaves the house, as if he doesn’t exist?
Since the entire Chen family relied on this prince, Chen Danzhu was still willing to hear more about him, but no one talked about him.
Although the Iron-faced General promised her to send a message to the Sixth Prince and entrust it to his family, he never mentioned that maybe as the general leading the army, he had a taboo about not interacting with the princes, even if he was a sick man.
On the contrary, Princess Jin Yao mentioned two or three times that she was very close to the Sixth Prince in words, and she was closer than the other princes.
"It's not that the Sixth Prince spends most of the year sleeping and recuperating. He rarely goes out and rarely sees people." Chen Danzhu asked curiously, "Can the princess see him often?"
Princess Jin Yao sighed softly, with a bit of sadness: "It was okay when I was a child, but it was hard to see her later."
Chen Danzhu became even more curious and asked: "Did the Sixth Prince have better health when he was a child?"
Princess Jin Yao shook her head, neither saying yes nor no, but said: "Sixth Brother's mother-in-law, like my mother-in-law, both died after giving birth to us, but he was not as lucky as me to be raised by the queen."
Chen Danzhu nodded, and it was understandable why the queen would raise a sick child. Wouldn't it be her fault to die?
"Sixth brother was taken by his wet nurse to live in a remote palace." Princess Jin Yao continued, adding, "He is not in good health, so the doctors asked him to raise him quietly."
Shouldn't children with poor health be better taken care of? Being thrown into a remote palace seems like being abandoned, Chen Danzhu thought to himself.
"I ran around once when I was a child and went to him." Princess Jin Yao didn't pay attention to her expression and continued to talk about the past, "There was no one in the palace. He was lying on a chair basking in the sun. At that time
, about five or six years old, like a little old man - I didn’t know who he was, so I asked him to play with me. He said yes, yes, let’s play the game of pretending to be dead, and then I lay on the ground for a long time.
