One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 58
Soon, the maidservants who were sent out came back to report one after another, and the boys who were sent out to run errands did not return for the time being.Yuan Zhao asked them to stay outside for a day and come back in the evening to describe what they saw and heard in detail before completing the task.

As long as it is noticed by anyone, it is considered a mission failure...

"Princess, what is this?" In less than an hour, Dong Tang, who was in charge of inquiring about Lord Hou's whereabouts, was brought back by Uncle Ji with a smile.

Tsk, this prospect, Yuan Zhao glanced at Dong Tang who bowed his head in shame, and said calmly:
"Uncle Ji, haven't you taught them how to inquire about news for the master?"

"Teach me," Ji Wu said with a smile, "but you can't take the idea on Master Hou."

Because it was taught by him and other colleagues, how could the every move of Dongtang and others escape their eyes?

"If you die in one room, why do you do anything outside?"

If her people can't even inquire about their own family's movements, how can they inquire about other people's affairs in the future?If the subordinates are incompetent, the master can only be a blind man with his eyes open, or go out in person, amazing eyes and ears.

"What does the county magistrate want?"

"Know the affairs of the world without leaving home."

This sentence does not refer to directly inquiring about something, but to deduce what is going to happen based on trivial and tedious details.She kept Master's teachings in mind, and she kept thinking about turning the theory into reality on the way back to Beijing.

"Then you can't inquire about Master Hou," Ji Wu said helplessly, "He is your father, it is against etiquette for a junior to inquire about the whereabouts of an elder."

Even the eldest son dared not be so presumptuous. Any young master who tried to find out the whereabouts of his father would not be able to get away with a beating.Nowadays, the person who violates the etiquette is the little princess, who can't be beaten or scolded, and can only be guided back to the right path by following good guidance.

"Green comes from blue and is better than blue. Since you taught them, they can only be regarded as masters if they can't be deceived by your eyes and ears." Yuan Zhaoli said confidently, "Uncle Ji, Dongtang and the others are your apprentices, and you will have face if they are able?"

So, let's shake out all the unique skills!Stop hiding.As for etiquette, if she knows etiquette, no one will come to assassinate her?It's impossible, so why bother?
Season [-]: "..."

Under the snickering eyes of the tortoise shell, Ji Wu returned home in a hurry, and went to report the truth to Lord Hou, leaving Dongtang to plead guilty to her with a face full of shame.

Yuan Zhao didn't punish him, but said:

"Explore again, use your brain, until they can't catch you."

"promise."

Dongtang was so excited by the phrase "green out of blue is better than blue", and ran out of Huatong courtyard with high fighting spirit like a chicken blood.

"Princess, you just finished drinking the medicine, why don't you take a nap?" Tortoise asked while helping her up.

"No, go to Mo Academy, I want to read some books." Yuan Zhao said.

Moyuan, a single courtyard for the princes and girls in the mansion to study.There is also such a place in the General's Mansion in Nanzhou, not only the General's Mansion in Nanzhou and other places, but all the places where she studied are called this name.

The army moved at any time, so in order for her to adapt to the learning environment anytime and anywhere, Master Hou took great pains.

"Auntie, why didn't our mansion invite Mr.? Is it because we are afraid that we will hurt others and dare not invite him, or can we not invite him?" Yuan Zhao was surprised when he recalled the reports from the maidservants just now.

When she was young, A Niang had been teaching her, but she thought that because of her young age, she would be able to go to school with her sisters when she grew up.

did not expect……

"It's a combination of the two." Tortoise looked helpless, and helped her to walk and talk slowly, "Our Marquis Mansion is in an embarrassing situation. In the past, no one even dared to approach the road..."

For fear of being implicated.

And this before refers to the reign of the first emperor.The first emperor wanted to destroy the entire Beiyue clan. At that time, even crows did not dare to come to report the funeral, let alone humans.

The statement was a bit exaggerated, but the Hou Mansion at that time was really difficult.

Under such circumstances, how can anyone dare to be the teacher of the young masters and girls?Fortunately, the masters and sons of each courtyard are very knowledgeable, especially the gentle and virtuous mistress Jiang Shi, who has a brilliant literary talent and takes the initiative to take on the important task of teaching the sons and daughters of knowledge.

Even Shizi was taught by her when he was a child, let alone other children.Even if the child was taken away by the palace, she still endured the grief and took on the responsibility of the mistress.

Until Yuanzhao returned to the mansion, she was abducted by outsiders and could not be found for a long time. The emperor was afraid that she would lose her life in worrying too much, so he sent several people to comfort her, let her take care of her body, and let the children in the mansion go to Guozi school study.

Only then did she unload the heavy burden, and handed over the affairs of the house to the fourth and fifth girls who were about the same age as housekeepers, so she could prepare a set of things for the children in the distance with peace of mind.

"Then why don't the sisters go to school? Is there no girls' school in the capital?" Yuan Zhao frowned.

I remember hearing it mentioned in Nanzhou that from the old dynasty to the new dynasty, there have always been female students in the capital.Of course, all the ladies who can enter the school are ladies from high-ranking officials and noble families. Commoner girls can only ask their husbands to teach at home, including girls from merchants.

On the contrary, there are no restrictions for men. There are schools and private schools in any county and county, and they can enter after paying the training.

On the other hand, in the Hou Mansion, her sisters are idle in their respective courtyards. Some are female celebrities, such as the fourth sister and fifth sister. Paint red and green in the study, such as Bajie.

The eighth sister, Fang Qin, was two years older than her. Whenever Si Niang Lan Ji urged her to study, she complained that she had a headache, which made Si Niang stare with anger.

"Madam doesn't want to keep the girls in check either," Tortoise sighed, "But, apart from you and the fourth girl in our mansion, the other two girls have no titles, and they don't even have a mother of the eldest princess as a backer. Seeking misfortune..."

One must know that the prestige of the Beiyue Clan is not as good as before, and there are not a few dignitaries who want to humiliate the Dingyuanhou Mansion.

Ming didn't dare to come, and tried to marry a girl from his family back home as a concubine, tortured and humiliated at will, enough to make him Dingyuan Hou suffer from being dumb for a lifetime.

No, except for the fourth girl, the rest of the girls were detained in the mansion by their aunt and were not allowed to go out at will.As for the fourth girl, Ru Lan, she is protected by the eldest princess' mother-in-law, even if outsiders have intentions, they dare not think wrongly about her for a while.

"..."

Tortoiseshell's words made Yuan Zhao very depressed, and he had nowhere to use his anger.I had to study hard or practice calligraphy to distract myself.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

This sentence flashed through her mind, and she kept turning it over and over again, which was especially wasteful when practicing calligraphy.

After the tortoise shell finished speaking, she stayed quietly by her side grinding ink, and when she saw her writing slowly and steadily, she presumably calmed down, so she asked the maid who was waiting outside with bated breath to come in and continue reporting.

Just now is the news from the girls, and then it is from the young masters.

Shizi's second elder brother returned to the official office this morning, and Shizi's wife's second sister-in-law was playing with the children in the yard, discussing embroidery with the fourth and fifth girls who came to visit, and discussing how to make some sets of clothes for the princess' sister for the aunt.

Knowing that Jiu Meimei will wear white clothes, a new batch of cloth has been brought into the house, of which pure white, moon white, gray white, and tea white account for more than half.

Yuan Zhao was so moved, his face was expressionless, and he continued to listen.

Bei Yuehui, the seventh son who usually loves to go to Zhuangzi to study farm work, went out of character early this morning, changed into his training clothes and went straight to the practice field, pestering his father's lieutenants to teach him a few tricks, as if he loves martial arts.

The lieutenants believed it was true, and taught him as hard as beating a certain princess, and tortured him to the point of cruelty.

Hee hee, Yuan Zhao couldn't help giggling, with a gloating look on his face.

As for the sixth son, Bei Yuelang, he followed his mother back to the eldest princess' mansion last night, and left the mansion before dawn today.

"Where did he go?"

"Liu's mansion, the mansion of Mr. Liu in Taibo, the third son Liu is a classmate of the sixth son." The maid Xike respectfully said, "I heard from the little boy next to the sixth son that the post sent by the third master Liu last night said good morning Arrived, but the sixth son left the door half an hour earlier."

At the beginning of Chen, it was seven o'clock in the morning, half an hour earlier would be six o'clock in the morning, Yuan Zhao was thinking in his mind.

"Where has he been for the past half hour? Who has he met?" she asked.

"He went straight to Liu's mansion and never got off the bus." Xi Ke said.

Well?Since it is the Liu Mansion, why should it be half an hour earlier?Yuan Zhao stopped writing, tilted his head to the left, his eyes were full of doubts.
