Chapter 300 Veterans roll up!

Coming out of Meng Wanfeng's place, Song Qingyue went straight to the imperial study.

In the imperial study room, the emperor was immersed in reviewing papers. When he heard that the eldest princess asked to see him, he immediately raised his head, stretched his shoulders and neck, and said, "The eldest daughter-in-law is here? Tell her to come in."

Song Qingyue came in and saw the emperor massaging her own neck, so she flattered her and said, "Father, can my daughter-in-law give you a massage?"

"Huh? Have you learned it?"

Song Qingyue said nonsense, "I learned a little from Prince Jing's concubine."

The emperor snorted softly, "Come here, but the ugly words come first, if you do well, I may not be able to agree to what you asked for today."

"Look at what you said, what can my daughter-in-law ask for." Song Qingyue walked over to the ground with her dog's legs, and pressed it hard for the emperor in the way she massaged her father's shoulders and neck in her previous life, and the emperor hummed comfortably.

"The eldest daughter-in-law's method is really good, but Zhao'er pinched it?"

"Pinch it, Your Majesty also feels comfortable." Song Qingyue was talking nonsense. Not only had she never massaged Li Zhao, but Li Zhao had to give her a massage from time to time just to please her in order to stay in the room.

Eunuch Wang hurriedly stepped forward and said: "This old servant will follow suit. Hey! This technique, just look at it! This old servant has to learn."

Song Qingyue exerted even more force. His Majesty is also a martial arts practitioner, and the muscles on his body were stiff. It was not easy to pinch. After only three minutes of pinching, Song Qingyue felt that her thumb was about to cramp, but she didn't dare to stop.

The emperor enjoyed Song Qingyue's hard-working massage service for a while, and felt that the little girl's hands behind him were gradually losing strength, so he stopped shouting, moved his neck, felt much more relaxed, and said with a smile: "Finally, I'm looking for you for Jing's sake." About the prince's son?"

Song Qingyue regained her cowardly and worried look, blinked her big innocent eyes and said, "Father guessed right, it is indeed the matter of Prince Jing's son."

The emperor chuckled twice and asked, "Have you gone to see the girl from the Meng family?"

"Yes."

"She is not willing to sacrifice her life for us?"

"Yes." Song Qingyue was extremely wronged, "You locked her husband in the well, and she didn't want to. It's really expected."

The emperor pondered, and asked again: "What do you think?"

Song Qingyue cautiously probed: "Why don't you find a place with better conditions and put them under house arrest? At least you have to allow the young couple to meet up from time to time, right?"

"Wang Luen, what do you think?" the emperor asked Eunuch Wang.

Eunuch Wang knew that this was what the master meant by asking Song Qingyue about an eunuch because he felt that what he said made sense, so he followed the emperor's wishes and said: "This old slave thinks that the proposal made by the eldest princess is somewhat reasonable."

The emperor nodded, called the little eunuch surnamed Ma, and said, "You go to the boss and ask him to lock Prince Jing's son in a better place."

Song Qingyue was overjoyed, and immediately bowed to the ground: "Thank you, Father! Father's heart to benefit the people of the Great Zhou is really grateful and admired by my daughter-in-law!"

"Okay, okay, stop flattering!" The emperor was very happy to be coaxed by Song Qingyue, with a smile on his face, and asked again, "How did you do what you were asked to do?"

Song Qingyue immediately changed her aggrieved face and said, "My daughter-in-law doesn't go to bed until three o'clock every day. She's working harder than the ministers of the court!"

The emperor laughed and said: "It doesn't have to be like this, the body is more important, Zhao'er is not young, you have to keep the matter of your heirs in mind."

"Yes, daughter-in-law can save it."

That night, when Li Zhao returned to the mansion, he asked about Li Zhen's affairs, and said in a bad tone, "Go and ask Father to move that kid Li Zhen?"

Song Qingyue nodded, and leaned over to act like a baby: "I was rescued by Meng Wanfeng twice when I was seriously ill..."

She didn't tell Li Zhao about the people's livelihood, she only said that Meng Wanfeng had saved her, but Li Zhao didn't know what to say for a while.

He hugged Song Qingyue in silence for a long while, Song Qingyue didn't urge him, just sat on his lap, hugged his neck and rubbed his cheek affectionately against his neck.

Li Zhao suddenly asked: "Yue'er, you once said that Li Zhen is also the one chosen by the heavens, is he... is he still?"

"Of course not!" Song Qingyue pinched Li Zhao's face and said with a smile, "You've been nervous about this? Didn't I tell you before that Meng Wanfeng also has someone like me... You can call me Tianyan, can you?" The ability to predict some things. But now that the father has won, they were abandoned by God."

"really?"

Song Qingyue nodded: "Blindly chasing and beating them, I'm afraid it will make God unhappy! After all, they are the ones he has chosen. To be honest, Prince Jing and his son have been stationed on the frontier conscientiously for so many years, and have never embezzled them. The land of military households has never been greedy for military pay and food, and has never done anything harmful to the country and the people, you..."

"Okay!" Li Zhao interrupted her displeasedly, "Anyway, he is a good man, your husband and I are a bad man, aren't we?"

"No, they don't mean that!" Song Qingyue hugged Li Zhao's neck anxiously, lying in his arms coquettishly, and said with absolute certainty, "My husband is different from them. My husband will be a saint in the future!"

Sure enough, Li Zhao was firmly grasped by the word "sage" again, and when Song Qingyue said that he was different from others, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Song Qingyue lay down next to his ear and blew: "Father asked about his son today... don't mention unhappy things, okay? Yue'er do something to make Brother Azhao happy?"

"My lady is right!"

The displeasure brought by Li Yu was immediately forgotten, and Li Zhao picked up Song Qingyue in a hug, and hurriedly walked towards the room with long legs...

~

After ten days or so, Li Zhao could be considered to have fished Li Zhen out of the well of the Imperial Prison.

He built a nice small courtyard in the clan mansion for this cousin to live in, but he sent a full two hundred guards to guard Li Wei, and he also increased the height and thickness of the courtyard wall to three times its original size. , only one narrow and small door was left to go in and out, and that door was still made of iron.

His Royal Highness King Jing's side is similar, the emperor built a small courtyard near the imperial mausoleum, the walls are as high as three or four floors, and Prince Jing was imprisoned there.

Political struggles are inherently cruel, but Song Qingyue did not feel sorry for the father and son at all.If King Su and Li Zhao were defeated at the beginning, their fate would be worse than the high wall circle.

In the original novel, King Su was stabbed to death by Li Zhen with a silver spear, and all the men in King Su's mansion lost their heads. If Li Zhao hadn't escaped quickly, his head would not have been saved either.

Now she has an explanation to Meng Wanfeng.

~
The name of the minister of the Ministry of Industry is Qi Shibin.

He is 50 years old now and is a veteran of the former court.

But it is said that he is a veteran, but in fact he climbed to the position of minister at about the same time as Song Jianming was minister, only a little more than five years.

Although he did not jump out to support the abolished prince or the Chen family when several princes seized the heirloom last year, he did not explicitly support His Royal Highness King Su either!

Ever since King Su ascended the throne and became the new king, Qi Shibin has been in constant panic.

Su Wang has a characteristic, he likes to use hard work, and he especially likes to use young people. When looking at older guys, their eyes are not eyes, and their noses are not noses.

But Qi Shibin is already fifty, his hair is gray, and his beard is completely white!I'm really afraid that one day the emperor will invite him to have a glass of wine and force him to die.

He is also a young man, a Jinshi at the age of 28. After decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, he finally sat in the position of Shangshu. He has only been five years old. Who wants to return to his hometown when his butt is not hot?
So since Li Da came to power, Qi Shibin has to carefully dye his hair and beard every three days, so that the new emperor can't let the new emperor see his old state!

But just dyeing the beard is not enough.There must be some other opportunity for him to perform in front of the emperor.

After being so distracted for more than half a year, he finally found a chance to perform in front of His Majesty the new king!
His Royal Highness the First Prince actually wrote a math book himself! ! ! !
As the end of the Six Ministries, the Ministry of Industry does the most and the most tiring work, but has the least power.They do all the dirty work, but they don't have much power.

And the newly appointed emperor actually likes mathematics, and even admires practical learning. Seeing that the new emperor mentions in the preface of the mathematics book written by the eldest prince, Qi Shangshu is more excited than anyone else when he mentions that in the future, he will pay equal attention to both practice and practice!
Holding the math book, he was crying, and knelt down towards the palace and kowtowed a few times.

There is hope for his official career to continue!

Therefore, Qi Shangshu's attitude is more positive than Master Song's in advocating practical learning!
Recently, after returning home from get off work in the Yamen every day, I called my sons and nephews, as well as the staff of the Fuzhong, to hold a study session on "Equations, Functions, and Linear Programming".

After studying it carefully, I was amazed!
He carefully wrote a tens of thousands of words of reflections for the emperor to read.

One is to flatter the emperor and His Royal Highness, he is a veteran of the former court, and he must show his loyalty and support to His Majesty the new king; the other is that he really expresses his feelings and understands this calculation method After the mystery, the excitement and joy are no less than when His Majesty the Emperor read Song Qingyue's manuscript.

Now, all the officials of the Ministry of Industry are under the leadership of Qi Shibin. The content of the daily morning meeting is to study and study this mathematics book carefully. How to apply this mathematical method to future work.

Sure enough, the emperor summoned him more often now.

After reading the impressions of "Equations, Functions, and Linear Programming" written by Qi Shangshu and all officials of the Ministry of Industry, the emperor revealed to Qi Shangshu his idea of ​​establishing a "Science Academy" in the future.

"What is science?" Qi Shangshu asked.

The emperor replied: "Engineering, Neo-Confucianism, Computing, Medicine, all sciences that study things to gain knowledge and study the laws and changes of all things are called science."

"So it is!" Qi Shangshu's eyes lit up.

"I would like to ask Ai Qing, where do you think the best location for the Academy of Sciences is?"

Qi Shangshu thought for a while, raised his eyelids to look at the emperor's expression, and asked cautiously: "Is there something you like, Your Majesty?"

The emperor said: "The eldest prince proposed to build it at the foot of Baoen Temple Mountain."

Baoen Temple?
Why does this name sound familiar?

Qi Shangshu is worthy of being an old minister who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, and he immediately thought of the eldest prince and concubine, thinking, this could not be the proposal of Lord Song Shangshu, right?If it wasn't for the proposal of the First Prince?

He turned his mind again and again before saying: "I think this is a blessed place, so it is naturally excellent. It's just..."

"It's just that outside the capital, it's a bit downgraded." The emperor finished the sentence for him.

Qi Shangshu immediately felt relieved, it turned out that His Majesty the Emperor had the same thoughts as him!He nodded again and again, and said a little excitedly: "The Taixue and the Imperial College are both in the imperial city, but the Academy of Sciences is outside the outer city wall. Your Majesty wants to advocate both classics and facts. I'm afraid this is an inappropriate location!"

The emperor nodded, then looked at Qi Shangshu: "Aiqing choose a place?"

Qi Shangshu bowed immediately and said: "Rong Chen will go back and discuss with the two lord servants before making a decision?"

The emperor's face seemed to be dissatisfied, Qi Shangshu immediately tensed up, and thought quickly, by the way, the new emperor is swift and resolute, and doesn't like to procrastinate, it seems that he hopes that he will give an answer now!
This can be nerve-wracking!

He also wanted to go back and put on his reading glasses, and carefully search for a good place with the map of the capital!
Here, the emperor suddenly said: "What do Aiqing think of the Zhenjue Temple opposite the Taixue?"

Qi Shangshu was startled, he didn't dare to say anything lightly at the holy place of Buddhism opposite Taixue.

When the emperor saw the old guy's timid and timid look, he became impatient.

When Qi Shangshu saw the emperor's expression, he was not afraid anymore. He immediately pulled himself up, straightened his back, and said loudly: "I think this place is very well chosen! Taixue is a holy place for Confucian classics. On the opposite side, it will become a holy place for practical learning in the future!"

The emperor was finally satisfied, and said very proudly: "Ah Zhao chose it, so it is naturally excellent."

When Qi Shangshu heard this, he blinked his eyes again, and his mind was turned back and forth for a while.

What does this mean, Your Majesty?
Did you just say that the First Prince suggested the foot of Baoen Temple?
Do you want to test yourself to see if you will immediately curry favor with His Highness the First Prince, or do you want to train His Highness's confidants?
what! !Crazy!
Qi Shangshu will not be able to sleep again at night.

The prank-loving emperor wanted to laugh out loud when he saw Qi Shangshu's face of a toad swallowing a little bastard, unable to eat or spit out.

I know that these courtiers don't want to do business every day, and they are thinking about it.

Let's talk about Song Qingyue.

After improving Li Yu's residence, it was a sure thing to invite Meng Wanfeng out of the mountain.

Hearing that the address of the Academy of Sciences had been selected, she wanted to visit the academy's construction site.

Originally, she planned to build the College of Gynecology and Medicine at the foot of Baoen Temple Mountain.In the future, the Faculty of Science will still be built there, and then the Faculty of Medicine will be merged into the Faculty of Science.

The emperor approved Song Qingyue's plan.

But later, in order to promote science and improve the standards of the Academy of Sciences, Li Zhao proposed to set the address opposite Taixue.

Song Qingyue heard that His Majesty agreed with Li Zhao's statement, so she didn't insist on her own idea - in the future, a branch could be established outside the city.

All awesome universities have their headquarters in the city center!
As for where Zhenjue Temple would move to, the emperor hadn't figured it out yet.

According to the emperor's idea, those bald donkeys who have nothing to do with farming and mulberry but occupy a large amount of land and cheat people's money should all be forced to return to the vulgar and thrown to the northeast or Xiaoliuqiu to reclaim wasteland!

In the past, when Daning was seriously ill, he begged the ancestors of Sanqing, Buddha, and Bodhisattvas one by one. He spent more than 20 taels of money to worship Buddha and pray for gods, which almost emptied the palace. In the end, she Shouldn't he die and leave him?

Since then, the emperor has no favor with the monks and priests, they are all deceitful!

He doesn't believe in an afterlife.

If you can't ask for it in this life, how can you talk about the next life?

It wasn't until the eldest daughter-in-law proposed to build a gynecological medical school that the emperor suddenly thought, instead of spending so much money on several royal temples and Taoist temples every year, it would be better to spend money to build a hospital!
So, starting this year, except for the incense oil money enshrined in the Sanqing Temple, which is ranked by the Daning family, the rest of the Baoen Temple, Zhenjue Temple, Nianhua Temple, Quanzhen Temple, and Daoyi Temple will all be cut off.

All the money was used to build a gynecological hospital for the eldest daughter-in-law.

The emperor looked at Song Qingyue who was so busy all day, her face glowing bright red, and sometimes he wondered, if this gynecological hospital had been built 30 years earlier, would Zhao Erniang not have left him.

The more he thought about it, the angrier the emperor became!
Within a few days, the emperor found a reason to demolish the temple: Zhenjue Temple did not come forward to help the victims during the snow disaster last winter.

He sent Eunuch Wang to pass on the emperor's oral order, scolding them for deceiving the world, stealing their reputation, being lazy, murdering for money, and decreed that the temple should be demolished immediately!

The monk felt so wronged!

What a disaster.

If you say they are lazy and lazy, you will admit it. How can you talk about murdering for money?

How did they know that His Royal Highness, because of the death of Empress Xiaokangjing more than 20 years ago, is very worried about the fact that the Buddha and Bodhisattva did not appear!
Mr. Qi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, came to supervise the demolition of Zhenjue Temple in person.

All the gold-plated and bronze Buddha statues were moved to the emperor's private treasury by eunuch Wang. As for the original group of monks in the temple, the emperor asked the Ministry of Industry to take them away and send them to dig and build roads.

The fattest monk among them was the most displeasing to the emperor, so he was thrown to Baoding to dig coal.

The monk was too fat to fit in the mine, so the emperor ordered him to lose weight enough to crawl into the mine to dig coal within half a year, or he would have his head chopped off!
Song Qingyue didn't know about His Majesty's brutal behavior, so she went home excitedly and drew a schematic diagram of a circular stepped auditorium.

Li Zhao looked at the picture and found it very interesting.

Song Qingyue said: "In the future, there will be more students in the Academy of Sciences! The loudspeaker has not made any progress, and there will be so much noise, it will definitely not be easy to use. This kind of circular lecture hall is convenient for the transmission of sound, even if there are three or four hundred people. Go in, and you can hear what the teacher said on the podium."

"Amphitheater?" Li Zhao carefully looked at the blueprint, pointed to the podium and said, "A circular algae well can be built here to facilitate sound gathering."

"Caijing?" Song Qingyue didn't seem to understand.

Li Zhao then pulled her to the Xiguang Hall, pointed to the bucket-shaped cave ceiling decoration with red lacquer and gold foil painting complex patterns above the main seat, and said: "This is for decoration, and there are also decorations on the stage of Jiutengzhai. , but it’s not so beautifully painted, it’s for sound gathering.”

Looking at the bright eyes of his little wife, Li Zhao bent down and kissed her face heavily.

"I'll go to the Ministry of Industry tomorrow and ask them to study and build this lecture theater. I'm sure it will be beautiful for you!"
