Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 861 It turns out that this book has a protagonist...

After dealing with trivial matters, Zhu Qiyu got up and drove to Kunning Palace.

In recent days, the harem has been much more peaceful. Wu, Wang, and Hang, after experiencing overt or covert collisions in the past, seem to have found the boundary to get along peacefully.

During this period of time, Mrs. Wu often called sister Hui and brother Ji to accompany and serve, and ignored everything else.

Mrs. Wang put most of her energy on her youngest daughter. She let Mrs. Hang deal with many common affairs, and she only took care of some important matters. , it can be regarded as leisurely.

As for Mrs. Hang, although the palace affairs are cumbersome, she enjoys it. However, she is not good at calculating and often makes mistakes. Most of the time, Mrs. Wang will go to deal with the aftermath.

For this reason, even Mrs. Hang's attitude improved a lot every time she saw Mrs. Wang. Later, she learned to be smart, so she would show it to Mrs. Wang before dealing with all the affairs. In charge of specific affairs, one is responsible for nodding and supplementing and correcting mistakes, but it also manages the harem in an orderly manner.

When Zhu Qiyu arrived at Kunning Palace, someone had already gone to inform her, so Mrs. Wang was also waiting outside the palace, smiling as usual.

"My concubine has seen Your Majesty."

After helping Wang Shi up, Zhu Qiyu found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in Kunning Palace today. As for the reason, it was because of the visibly gloomy villain standing beside Wang Shi.

"What's the matter? Who made our sister Hui unhappy? Come on, tell Father..."

You know, in the past, this little crazy girl never talked about etiquette, and always ran out barefoot to hang on him following the sound.

This time he behaved well, but the look of grievance on his face was short of golden beans.

"Father..."

Sister Hui stretched out her hand, let out a soft cry, and immediately threw herself into her father's arms, complaining in a low voice of grievance, and said.

"The queen mother is bad, sister fierce Hui!"

After all, he buried his head in his father's shoulder, not knowing whether he was afraid or angry.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, but then even realized it.

Compared with the two princes, Brother Ji and Brother Peng, Zhu Qiyu loves and indulges the two daughters Sister Hui and Sister Yun even more.

Among the few children who can already walk and dance, although Sister Hui is the youngest, she is the most eccentric and the most likable.

Apart from Zhu Qiyu, Wu Shi also dotes on her, Ji Geer protects her all the time, and only Wang Shi can discipline her in the whole palace.

However, Wang's own daughter is also in pain, and she doesn't say anything serious on weekdays. It seems that something happened this time, as for making this child so wronged.

However, seeing this situation, Mrs. Wang was a little dumbfounded, said.

"Your Majesty, it's windy outside, come in first."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to take the little girl over, but unexpectedly, Sister Hui didn't move, she hugged Zhu Qiyu's neck and didn't let go.

Well, it seems that this time I was really angry.

Zhu Qiyu hugged his daughter with one hand, and gently patted Wang's hand with the other, saying.

"It's okay, let's go in first."

After all, he simply hugged Sister Hui and dragged Mrs. Wang into Kunning Palace.

After sitting down on the couch in the hall, he put Sister Hui down on the couch and asked.

"Come on, tell Father, what happened?"

However, what surprised Zhu Qiyu was that when she really asked about the specific situation, the little girl groaned and refused to tell.

At this time, Wang said on the side.

"Your Majesty, it's about studying!"

"A few days ago, Mrs. Hang came over to say what you told me to set up a school in the small side hall next to the Qianqing Palace, so that Brother Ji and Sister Hui can go to Kaimeng to study together."

"After coming back, Mrs. Hang discussed the matter with his concubine. Now there are manpower and books are almost ready, but this child is out of temper and just refuses to go."

"The concubine persuaded me a few times, but she refused to listen. Seeing that in a few days, the school would be fully prepared, but she still didn't want to go. The concubine was impatient, so she said two serious words .”

"No, you're angry with my concubine..."

Speaking of this matter, Wang Shi was also helpless for a while, looking at the same aggrieved.

Moreover, after speaking these words, Zhu Qiyu clearly felt that there was a bit of hesitation in Wang's expression, as if he had something to say, which was not easy to say.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Qiyu frowned, picked up Sister Hui and sat down on her lap, then asked gently.

"Father told you that the primary school is next to Qianqing Palace. Sister Hui goes to the school to study every day. After class, you can come to Qianqing Palace to look for Father, okay?"

After hearing this, the little girl's eyes lit up, but she soon became sullen again, said.

"No, father, can you go to play with father instead of going to school?"

"no!"

This time, Zhu Qiyu's attitude was still very firm, he shook his head, seeing the tears welling up in the little girl's eyes again, he thought for a while, and said again.

"Sister Hui, think about it. If you don't go to study, Brother Ji can't go either. Brother likes to study, right? You read and play together every day. Brother is also happy, and you are also happy, isn't it good?"

During this period of time, the relationship between the two brothers and sisters has been very good. Of course, this is also because now that the prince is out of the cabinet, the heirs of the Supreme Emperor have also moved to the Nangong Palace. Except for brother Peng and sister Yun, there are only two people in the palace who can only babble. As for the milk doll, there are only two children left, Sister Hui and Geer Ji.

So, the two of them run around together all day, and the siblings basically spend most of their time together now.

Originally, Zhu Qiyu thought that this point would definitely impress the little girl, but unexpectedly, she became even more unhappy and said with wide eyes.

"But, sister Hui and brother Ji can't study together, how could they be together?"

Zhu Qiyu felt a little surprised, and immediately frowned, and turned to look at Wang Shi, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Seeing this situation, Wang Shi explained.

"Your Majesty, there is no custom in the royal family to educate princesses. Usually, concubines send female officials and eunuchs in the palace to teach female workers."

"But Brother Ji is the prince. Since you want to enlighten Brother Ji, you naturally want to teach some classics. Therefore, after discussing with the Hang family, the concubine asked the mother and concubine, and felt that it would be better to teach separately."

"Brother Ji's side, find some knowledgeable people who specialize in teaching Confucian classics and history, and sister Hui's side, teach female red workers, and women teach women."

"Because of this, the child is stubbornly refusing to go, oh..."

However, she didn't notice that Zhu Qiyu's complexion didn't change for the better after saying these words, but turned a little ugly instead.

On the other side, Sister Hui also lowered her head, wondering what she was thinking.

After a while, Zhu Qiyu patted Sister Hui's little hand and said.

"Sister Hui, if the emperor wants you to study in the school with Brother Ji, would you like it?"

"By the way, let's not only study, but also learn to ride horses. Many beautiful ponies have just been born in the royal garden of the father. Let Xing'an take you and Brother Ji there tomorrow. Each of you can choose one, okay?"

"it is good!"

The little girl has always liked things like running and jumping. When she heard that she could ride a horse, her eyes immediately became bright and she said crisply.

"Long live the emperor!"

Saying that, the little girl snapped and kissed Zhu Qiyu's face, which made Zhu Qiyu's face drool, but she couldn't stop giggling, not as unhappy as before.

Seeing that the girl had changed back to the pistachio look before, Zhu Qiyu's complexion also became better. He rubbed his drool-stained face against her small face, causing her to wrinkle her nose and jump off the couch. Turning around and making a face, said.

"Father is bad, I don't care about you anymore, I'll go find Brother Ji!"

After all, he ran out da da da, but the smile on his face didn't decrease in the slightest.

Seeing all the maids and servants leaving the palace door behind the little girl, Zhu Qiyu took the handkerchief from Wang's hand and wiped it, the smile on his face also subsided.

Turning to look at Wang Shi, he asked with a frown.

"I made it clear to the noble concubine before, let sister Hui and brother Ji go to school together, how did they become separated in the end?"

Just now in front of the child, it was hard for Zhu Qiyu to ask clearly, but what is certain is that someone must have gossiped behind this, otherwise, no matter whether it is the Hang family or the Wang family, they would not have such an idea.

Seeing Wang's embarrassed look, Zhu Qiyu seemed to have thought of something and asked.

"Could it be that the concubine mother meant it?"

In this palace, there are not many people who can make Wang Shi difficult to speak, and Wu Shi is one of them. In addition, it is not surprising that Zhu Qiyu has such a guess about Wu Shi's attitude towards Wang Shi before.

But this time, Wang Shi shook his head and explained.

"Your Majesty misunderstood. Concubine Mu has no opinion on this matter. Instead, she thinks that Brother Ji is studying alone, and it is good to have Sister Hui by his side."

"What's going on? I don't believe that you separated the two children for no reason?"

Zhu Qiyu continued to ask, but this time, unexpectedly, Wang uttered a name that he had never thought of.

"It's... the queen's wife!"

Queen of Money?
Now, Zhu Qiyu was really surprised.

He did know that Empress Qian would sometimes come to Kunning Palace or Hang's palace to sit and sit. After all, Nangong's food and clothing expenses, eunuchs and maids, etc. all had to be allocated by the internal treasury. Zhu Qiyu did not restrict Nangong's access as in his previous life.

Therefore, there is still some walking between Empress Qian and the concubines in the harem.

"what happened?"

For this emperor's wife, Zhu Qiyu has always been respectful.

Although Zhu Qizhen is really not very good, Empress Qian loves him unswervingly, and she is calm and magnanimous. She also took care of Zhu Qiyu in many ways when she was in the mansion before. Zhu Qiyu is grateful for these kindnesses.

Therefore, he never thought that this matter would be related to Queen Qian...

Seeing Zhu Qiyu's unexpected appearance, Wang Shi was also a little unexpected. Although she knew that her husband loved her daughter, she did not expect that he would care so much about it.

Immediately, Wang also raised his mind and said.

"Actually, at the very beginning, the concubine and Mrs. Hang didn't think too much about it. They planned to open a small school next to the Qianqing Palace as His Majesty said, and teach the two children first. Anyway, it's just enlightenment, and there is no need Too onerous."

"But a few days ago, Mrs. Hang came to Kunning Palace to discuss with his concubine whether to separate the prince and princess. After all, they should learn different things. Sister Hui's temper is too jumpy, so she still needs to learn from female red workers, safe and sound. With a stable temper, the concubine knew that the Hang family was not a person with ideas, and after asking a few more questions, she found out that it was the emperor's wife who came to the Hang family because of the ice cubes in summer, and she casually talked about it, so she said a few words."

"The concubine didn't think much about it at the time, she just thought it made sense, but she didn't make up her mind. Later, sister Huang came to the palace to visit the Holy Mother, and sat down with the concubine as usual before leaving the palace."

"So, the concubine asked what the imperial sister had learned back then, and the imperial sister also said that what she learned was the precepts of women and women, so the concubine discussed with the Hang family whether to open a separate one for the imperial daughter. The primary school, after all, there are quite a lot of children in the palace, and the heirs of the Supreme Emperor will also go to school in the future, so it’s not good for them all to mix together and learn some classics and history collections, it’s not good.”

After telling the ins and outs of the matter, seeing Zhu Qiyu's frown, Wang Shi was also a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, did the concubine do something wrong?"

Zhu Qiyu came back to his senses, thought for a while, and said.

"It can't be regarded as inappropriate. There is no practice for these things in the past, so there are some things that you didn't expect for a while."

"Accordingly, what the emperor's sister-in-law said is also reasonable. As a woman, women should learn how to look good at women. However, this is a folk principle. We royal princesses don't have to be bound by it."

This question is actually a historical one.

Before the Tang Dynasty, the defense of men and women was not so strict, so both princes and daughters studied together in the palace.

However, with the development of Cheng-Zhu Confucianism, more and more attention was paid to the difference between men and women, and such scenes became less and less.

Especially for the royal family, the education of the prince is basically more important than the education of the princess.

In the Hongwu era, Emperor Taizu once set up a big hall for the princes to study, but for the emperor's daughters, they were basically raised by their biological mothers, and there was no systematic education.

Even after arriving in Yongle, even the main hall was cancelled, and the education of the prince became more and more on the right track, but the other princes and princesses didn't pay much attention to it.

Therefore, there is indeed no precedent for opening a primary school for princes and princesses. In addition, Zhu Qiyu did not elaborate at the time, so it is understandable that something went wrong.

In fact, Zhu Qiyu has his own considerations about the education of princes and daughters.

At the very beginning, because of the lessons from his previous life, he wanted not to put too much pressure on Ji Ge'er, and he wanted to delay the enlightenment two years later.

But later he discovered that the child really liked reading, and more importantly, he discovered that Mrs. Wu had some problems in guiding the child.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, he plans to open a primary school. On the one hand, let Ji Geer learn to read first, and on the other hand, put him by his side and teach him more, without putting too much pressure on him. , Let this child not grow crooked.

Only then did the elementary school opened in advance.

And the reason why Sister Hui went to school like Brother Ji was, of course, not a temporary idea, but a deeper meaning.

It's just that what Zhu Qiyu didn't expect was that Empress Qian and Princess Changde would get in the middle of it, it's a coincidence...

still?
