Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 917 Xie An Enters the Palace
"Okay!"

"It's a good thing!"

"This shows that the empress dowager is still very sensible."

Hearing these words, Xie An was also touched and praised repeatedly. He felt that the previous strategy of staying in the Xie Mansion and living in seclusion was not necessarily correct.

Before Zhiyuan and his army return to the city, there are some things that this old man should do.

"A-Ning, I already know everything about your thoughts, and I can also explain mine to you. As for Zhiyuan, he is indeed my grandson-in-law, and he respects me very much."

"However, the Beifu Army is now in his hands after all, and he is also a man who has a family and a career. I have no decision-making power in how to deal with many things in the end, and neither do you. It all depends on him. choose."

"I confess to you, I also sent a letter to Zhiyuan before, the content is nothing more than exhorting him to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, even if the Beifu soldiers won a big victory, they have to obey the imperial court."

"I didn't tell you about these things before. It was my mistake, but you can rest assured that neither the Xie family nor I will be enemies of the imperial court regarding the behavior of the Beifu soldiers."

"Is what Xie Gong said true?"

"You really think so?" Wang Gong was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

Although the purpose of today was to bring out their respective ideas and put them on the table, even Wang Gong himself was not ready to make peace with Xie An.

The results of it?
Wang Gong was unprepared, but Xie An offered the olive branch first.

Is this possible?

Xie An calmly smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

"how?"

"You still don't believe what the old man said?"

"No no, how is this possible?"

"Xie Gong can be so magnanimous, the younger generation is very grateful." After talking to this point, if you don't go smoothly, you will lose your vision.

Wang Gong saluted exaggeratedly, but he recruited all his friends.

"A'Ning, what did you say to Mr. Xie?"

"Don't you know how to greet guests?" Xi Hui opened his mouth, the words were filled with anger, and now that he had drunk enough wine, his momentum was even more unstoppable.

They all rushed to Xie An.

"Ah Qi is right, Ah Ning, this is what we are talking about today, we should restore the banquet to its original appearance."

"Yep!"

"Xie Gong is right!"

"I'm going to greet the guests."

When Xie An spoke, Wang Gong got up immediately and went to greet the guests. Such a perfunctory attitude seemed to be telling the guests clearly.

You guys are completely a shield for me to invite Xie An. If there is no Xie An, you will not be able to get a meal at all.

Is this... the end?

Don't play with us?
Several friends watched Wang Gong leave and fell into doubts.

What's happening here?
How did the two of them become so close?
So that even the brothers are thrown aside?
Simply incredible.

Still, there's not much to say about that either.

Friends in the imperial court are not like this, if harmony is beneficial, they will gather, and if strength is different, they will disperse, that's all.

In other words, Xie An is the most powerful figure in the Great Jin Dynasty today. If Wang Gong can win Xie An's support, then there is no need to think about it. He will definitely do so, not at all. would hesitate.

In the past, the two families of Wang and Xie continued to be at odds because of a knot in their hearts, no matter which side was unwilling to bow first.

But now, since the two sides have made peace, there is no need to doubt, Wang Gong will definitely unite with Xie An.

It seems that when the Beifu army returns to the city, the situation in the court will completely change!

In what direction will it change?
Will it be what everyone expects?

And what are your expectations?

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, each with an abacus in mind.

The next day, the news of the Beifu army was sent to the imperial court early. According to the battle report, the army has successfully passed through the important town of Xuzhou, and it will arrive outside Jiankang City in about three days.

Although, this battle report is a bit inexplicable, originally, it is perfectly fine not to send this battle report.

Because in Xuzhou, the army was not stopped, let alone the hilt of the knife. If so, what is the purpose of sending such a letter?

There is no doubt that it is absolutely impossible for Wang Mi to just send a letter for everyone's entertainment without any intention.

He definitely has ulterior motives.

Where is his intention?
You can tell by carefully discerning his diction.

Jiankang!

Health is the key!

Wang Mi is revealing a news, he will lead the army back to Jiankang City, instead of staying in Jingkou!

So far, Wang Gong's most worried thing is that it won't happen, and a huge stone in his heart has fallen to the ground.

It's not easy!

Although this was just a battle report that revealed the news, and Wang Mi did not express his attitude clearly, Wang Gong still insisted that his guess was not wrong.

Wang Mi is not a person who expresses his position casually, but whenever he expresses his position, he will not be perfunctory.

He will definitely act according to his statement!

Before he knew it, Wang Gong actually began to believe in Wang Mi's character. Isn't this a proof of strength?
Putting these aside for the time being, since Wang Mi's battle report came, everyone in the government and the opposition has returned to their hearts, eagerly looking forward to the triumphant return of the Beifu army.

All eyes were attracted by Wang Mi.

No one even knew about the changes in the deep palace.

I don't know if it's luck or misfortune.

In the harem today, the Empress Dowager Wang Zhenying woke up early, and before dawn, she asked the eldest maid to carry the little baby Sima Dezong to her side.

Sima Dezong squinted, rolled his big and round black eyes, and looked at Wang Zhenying in a daze.

Although this is not her own biological son, after getting along for a long time, Wang Zhenying also developed a little affection for him.

She took out the veil and wiped his sack.

"Where's Madam Chen?"

The palace lady put Dezong on the small couch, and hurriedly reported: "Chen Niangniang found a female doctor in the harem these two days, and she is practicing calligraphy!"

This is a big event, ever since the grand lady learned about it, she has been waiting for the opportunity to tell Wang Zhenying.

Sure enough, Wang Zhenying's face changed when she heard it.

"Practice calligraphy?"

"What does she want to practice calligraphy for?"

"Which female doctor taught her?"

The palace maids answered one by one: "My servant heard that Mrs. Chen has been illiterate. She feels that now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, she, as His Majesty's biological mother, can't read a single word. It is really shameful. In the past few years before becoming an adult, learn something by yourself first."

"It was Dr. Song who lectured her."

"Oh, it was her."

Dr. Song, also known as Song Chengyi.

Skillful!

Wang Zhenying also knew Dr. Song.

Da Jin still has some experience in the management of the female family in the harem.

Because the women in the harem, especially those at the empress level, are often from famous families. Although they may not be academic masters, at least these women are still somewhat talented.

Under the influence of such an environmental background, the ruling and opposition parties generally adopted a supportive attitude towards women who were educated.

In a few years, the palace will recruit some talented female doctors from the society, and come to the harem to teach the women of the harem.

Song Chengyi is such a person.

The Song family of Wujun, specialized in producing female bachelors, this is already a good story in the Jin Dynasty.

This Song Chengyi was born in Wu County.

And she thought that she had met Wang Zhenying before entering the palace.Later, Wang Zhenying entered the palace first, and after a few years, Song Chengyi was also selected to enter the palace and became a female doctor.

This is the highest-level female official in Dajin, and she is very honorable.

However, since both of them entered the palace, they haven't had much contact with each other, and it's not because they deliberately didn't see each other, nor did they have any past festivals among the people.

On the contrary, it is precisely because there is no festival, and there is no special reason to meet, which makes them not communicate.

However, if there is one female scholar in the palace who dares to take on this job, what Wang Zhenying can think of is indeed Song Chengyi.

Only she has the guts, or in other words, only she is willing to wade into this muddy water.

It's not that Song Chengyi deliberately made it an enemy of Wang Zhenying, it's just that she didn't take the so-called court battle to heart at all, and she didn't care at all.

You fight for yours, I am only responsible for teaching female students, everything else has nothing to do with me.

The palace maid looked at Wang Zhenying's face a bit unsightly, so she hurriedly said courteously: "Your Majesty, do you want the servant to bring Dr. Song here, and your Majesty will give her a good training!"

right!

It should be taught a lesson!

The grand lady was already ready, but Wang Zhenying stopped her: "That's impossible!"

"Tell you, I have my own opinion on this matter. You and the servants in the palace should be vigilant. Don't get involved in this matter, and don't bother Dr. Song."

"Did you hear that?" Wang Zhenying didn't know what she was thinking, but she was afraid that she would be disobedient and engage in petty tricks in private. Before she could speak, Wang Zhenying said the ugly words first.

Sure enough, the palace maid immediately showed a disappointed expression: "Your Majesty, the servants are all thinking about your Majesty, and have no other thoughts."

Wang Zhenying comforted her with kind words: "I understand your thoughts, but I will settle this matter by myself, you don't need to intervene."

"However, why did Mrs. Chen want to learn how to read?"

"She is illiterate, and it is not a matter of these days."

Speaking of this, the grand lady really has something to say.

"Don't worry, madam. This matter has already been inquired clearly by the servants. I heard that empress Chen doesn't have to take your majesty with her. She has nothing to do every day, so she wants to improve a little bit. After all, empress Chen is also considered the emperor now." Your Majesty's biological mother is dead, and she is also illiterate and uneducated, so it's a bit embarrassing."

What does it matter if she loses face or not?
What Sima Dezong will rely on in the future is not her biological mother. Even if she needs to go out of the palace to meet people in the future, it will be her, Wang Zhenying, who will take the lead. Does she need her, Mrs. Chen?
Although Wang Zhenying was disdainful in her heart, she also kept her sense of proportion and did not say it out loud. This kind of thing must not be casually mentioned to the slaves.

Sometimes, what seems to be an easy statement, a simple sentence, will be remembered by these servants and used to spy on your thoughts.

Wang Zhenying didn't want her words and deeds to be used by the servants to manipulate her.

The words and deeds of the slaves are actually the same as Chen Guinu.

It can be viewed in two parts.

From a positive point of view, Sima Dezong was brought up by Chen Guinu herself before, and she really needed to worry about it.

But now, Sima Dezong was taken into the Queen Mother's palace by Wang Zhenying. As a biological mother, he really felt empty.

Perhaps, the so-called literacy is just to find a pastime for myself, and I don't think too much about other things.

And the suggestions of the maids may be just to show courtesy, and there is no malice. Of course, they are all thinking in a positive direction.

There is also a bad side. Chen Guinv's need to learn to read is probably the prelude to her continued tossing around in the harem.

After all, the possibility of an uneducated and ignorant woman being able to do something is really low, even if she is lucky enough to do it, it won't cause too much trouble.

Can't make a fuss.

But what if she had knowledge?
Don't say that those who become monks halfway are not counted, as long as they are willing to work hard, there will always be some results, and the ability to do things will be instantly different, which is why Wang Zhenying is vigilant.

As for these servants who only know how to flatter and flatter, compared to Chen Guinv, they may not want to harm her, but their various behaviors are very likely to make Wang Zhenying fall into a passive position and make frequent tricks.

Both of these things need to be resolutely avoided.

No negotiation.

"Chen Niangniang's idea is also reasonable. Forget it, let's leave this matter for now. Let's wait and see after a while."

Need to find something for Chen Guinv to do, she is always idle and bored, and it is easy to feel uncomfortable, but what to do?
It can't be Chen Guinu who has the final say, but Wang Zhenying.

But when Wang Zhenying was deep in thought, Xiao De'er suddenly rushed into the hall and hurriedly said: "Madam, Mr. Xie is here."

"Thank you?"

"Xie An?"

"Why is he here?" Although Wang Zhenying was surprised, she quickly made preparations for the meeting.No matter what the purpose of Xie An's trip was, but such an important court official came to the palace to seek an audience, no matter what, he still had to meet him.

Xiao De'er shook his head: "This slave doesn't know, Xie Gong is so powerful, it's impossible to tell Xiao Nu about it." As he spoke, Xiao De'er was still a little anxious, and the sweat was about to roll off.

"Then pass him into the palace, and I will see him."

Xiao De'er hurriedly sent the message, while the big palace lady was busy helping Wang Zhenying to dress up, Xie An is here!
It really is an unexpected twist!

When she heard the news for the first time, Wang Zhenying was particularly shocked, but thinking that yesterday was the birthday of her elder brother Wang Gong, and hearing that he had a big banquet, and even Xie An, who had always been at odds, was present, Wang Zhenying had some guesses.

Could it have something to do with her stupid brother?

Wang Zhenying should be thankful that in her era, the requirements and management of the harem women were not as strict as in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The women in the harem can communicate with the former ministers almost without pressure, even when the emperor is around.

They can participate in court banquets and chat with ministers freely. As long as it is normal communication, no one will make irresponsible remarks at all.

It is precisely because of this that an old man like Xie An can enter the palace to seek an audience without prior notice.

What can go wrong?
Anyway, there are guards everywhere inside and outside the Empress Dowager's bedroom, Wang Zhenying can't do anything out of the ordinary, and there is no need to worry that Xie An will threaten the safety of the Empress Dowager.
