Han Dao world

Chapter 365

Xun Yu was silent for a long time, then nodded.

He sent someone to pick up his daughter because the emperor invited her to marry him.

He didn't have to use marriage to win the trust of the emperor, but the emperor gave him the important task of realizing the king's way, which made him unable to refuse.

The emperor did this not because of lust - he had never seen his daughter - but because of a lack of trust.

This is not only related to the personal experience of the Son of Heaven, but also to his experience.

Getting married is a plan that everyone can accept.

The only person who might suffer is the daughter.

He wrote a letter to Chen Qun, who would become his son-in-law, revealing his intention, but Chen Qun didn't reply, obviously acquiescing to this matter.

According to the person who sent the letter, Chen Qun and his son lived in Xuzhou and attached themselves to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei supported Yuan Shao.

Therefore, since he and Chen Qun had different positions, marriage was unnecessary.

But Chen Qun was disdainful of his decision, so he didn't even want to reply to the letter.

"Wen Qian, I have wronged you."

"For the family and the country, what grievance is there?" Xun Wenqian lowered her head.

"Ah Weng, I don't feel wronged either." Xun Yun couldn't help but said: "Although the Son of Heaven is two years younger than Wen Qian, he is a wise king and a hero born in the world. It is impossible for ordinary girls to marry such a husband. Qian is lucky enough to enter the palace, I don't know how many people envy her."

Xun Yu looked at Xun Wenqian. "Do you think so too?"

Xun Wenqian responded in a low voice, and didn't know what to say, but refused to look up.

Mrs. Tang quickly rescued her daughter. "Husband, we have been walking all the way, and I heard that the emperor defeated Xianbei and beheaded [-] people, but is it true?"

"Of course it's true." Xun Yun exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "The Son of Heaven led three thousand cavalry to conquer the north, defeating the Xiongnu first, and then defeating Xianbei. The battle must be won, and the attack must be conquered. It is amazing. Compared with this battle, the original Huayin battle is simply not worth mentioning."

Xun Wenqian couldn't help raising her head. "Really, brother, have you received the battle report?"

"Yeah." Xun Yun nodded repeatedly, then turned to look at Xun Yu.Xun Yu was a little displeased at first, but when he saw Xun Wenqian's eager eyes, his heart moved slightly, and then he nodded again, asking Xun Yun to fetch the battle report.

The battle report described the whole process of the battle in detail, except for the routine exaggeration of the number of beheadings, it was almost all the truth.

Xun Wenqian took the battle report, read it quickly, and then showed it to Mrs. Tang overjoyed.Mrs. Tang was not very interested in this, but saw that Xun Wenqian was happy, so she read it along with her.

There are no conspiracies and tricks in the battle report, but the imagination through words is even more exciting.

"The Son of Heaven has such talent. It seems that the big man really has a destiny." Mrs. Tang put her arms around Xun Wenqian, smiling all over her face. "My son is lucky. All the ancestors of the Xun family will be happy to be able to marry such a husband."

Xun Yu raised his hand, covered his mouth with his sleeve, and coughed twice, reminding Mrs. Tang not to be too happy and to speak out of nothing.

"Wen Qian, I have a few words to remind you."

"Father, tell me." Xun Wenqian broke free from her mother's embrace, and bowed respectfully.

"I sent you into the palace not for the sake of wealth and honor, but for mutual trust with the emperor and his ministers, and to build a kingly way together. The emperor has a heart, and he is also a rare genius, but after all, it is hard for a young man to fail to devote himself to learning. There is some narrowness. After you enter the palace, you will be assisted by Kuangfu at that time, so as to promote the kingly way, you should not blindly flatter you."

"Here." Xun Wenqian bowed her head and agreed.

"Okay, okay. We just got out of the car and didn't take a sip of water, so don't rush to teach me a lesson." Mrs. Tang said angrily: "Eat first, and then send someone to take us to the paper workshop , ask for a few pieces of paper."

Xun Yu also felt that he was too impatient, so he laughed dumbly and nodded repeatedly.

After lunch, Xun Yu asked Xun Yun to take someone to accompany his wife and daughter to Zhifang to meet Tang Ji.

-

Hedong Zhifang is located on the bank of Huangshui River. It is not small in scale. There are dozens of courtyards, large and small, and they are tightly guarded.

Even Xun Yun could not enter the workshop unless he had a document from the prefect's mansion.

Among a group of craftsmen, Mrs. Tang and Xun Wenqian saw Tang Ji.

Tang Ji wore a simple hairstyle, wrapped in a headscarf, and wore a coarse cloth gown. She was almost unrecognizable among the craftsmen.But she has a strong figure, and she has a calm and relaxed aura when she moves her hands and feet, which makes people unforgettable.

Even the craftsmen around her, male or female, all had rosy complexions and calm eyes, and they knew that they were living a good life.

Thinking of the sights she saw along the way, Xun Wenqian suddenly understood what Xun Yu meant.

The kingly way is to let everyone live with confidence and dignity, even if it is a woman.

"Sister?" Seeing a group of strangers coming in, Tang Ji came over to check out habitually, and was surprised to see that it was Mrs. Tang.

"There's me, aunt." Xun Wenqian jumped forward and said dissatisfied.

Although Tang Ji is of the same generation as her mother, her age is closer to her, and she has been a playmate since she was a child.

"Wen Qian is here too." Tang Ji squeezed her eyes, put her arms around Xun Wenqian's shoulders, and covered her lips with a smile.

As the person who proposed it in the first place, of course she knew why Xun Wenqian appeared here.

Xun Wenqian turned her head shyly, avoiding Tang Ji's teasing eyes. "Auntie, this paper workshop is really big."

"Of course, the paper in our paper workshop is not only supplied to Hedong, but also to Tianzixing and Guanzhong. Recently, merchants from Liangzhou and Yizhou have come to buy it. After a while, we will expand."

Mrs. Tang and Xun Wenqian were amazed.

"Sister is so brave, she is indeed a hero among girls." Mrs. Tang laughed.

"A hero is a hero. Why should there be a distinction between men and women? In my paper workshop, more than half of the workers are women. When it comes to work, they are not inferior to men. On the contrary, they are more careful than men and suffer more. At the beginning, the trial production of new paper was not smooth. , often without rest for several days and nights, many men can't bear it, but there are not many women who complain of suffering and tiredness."

Mrs. Tang and Xun Wenqian couldn't believe their eyes as they looked at the busy craftsmen around them and listened to Tang Ji's introduction.

Hearing the cocoons along the way, the Hedong Zhifang is actually a workshop supported by a large group of women. In the past, they would not believe it anyway.

It is common sense that men dominate outside and women dominate inside.Even in weaving workshops, women are only weavers and cannot be managers.

But what I saw before my eyes turned out to be mostly women.

"Sister is really a genius." Mrs. Tang said with emotion: "I have been since I was a child, but this is even more useful."

"I'm not." Tang Ji said: "The Son of Heaven is the real genius, the hope of the great man."

Mrs. Tang glanced at Tang Ji in surprise, and said in a low voice, "Sister, it's fine if others say that, but if you say that, could it be..."

"This is all from my heart." Tang Ji turned around, took a sample paper from a female craftsman who came to ask for instructions, looked at it twice, and gave some instructions. "My late husband is only suitable to be the lord of peace, not capable of saving the world. The Son of Heaven is. At the beginning, the Emperor intended to be the Son of Heaven, and it was a foresight."

Mrs. Tang and Xun Wenqian looked at each other in surprise.

They all knew that Tang Ji had a deep relationship with King Hongnong, and they were also worried about King Hongnong being deposed, but now they said such words, it was really unimaginable.

But they knew better that with Tang Ji's temperament, if she was not willing, even if someone put a knife on her neck, she would not give in.

What virtue and ability does the Son of Heaven have that Tang Ji willingly agrees with?
