The queen cried the whole harem

Chapter 102 Placement of Yan Lang
The imperial concubine was left speechless by Qi Hengyuan's words, and sighed: "You are naturally different from me. A king should be able to reason and argue right and wrong, and not be manipulated by others. Only in this way can he govern the country and the world."

Qi Hengyuan nodded: "So whether it's about Chen Yurong or Yan Lang, the sister-in-law should not blame Yan Ning. I punished Chen Yurong because she was stupid. I pardoned Yan Lang and let Yan Lang enter the Holy Philosophy Academy. Not for Yanning, but for Lanzhou Pass. The Yan family guards Lanzhou Pass for generations. Yan Lang also lived in Lanzhou Pass since he was a child. He is very familiar with Lanzhou Pass. The older generation of the Yan family will eventually pass away, and the new generation will emerge. My favorite successor is Yan Yun, but if Yan Yun died in battle, then the only thing I can look forward to is Yan Lang, I hope the Queen's Wife can understand my good intentions."

The imperial concubine was a little ashamed. Although she was talented, she opened the Academy of Holy Philosophy and taught many promising young people, but she was not a king after all, and she couldn't look at things from the height of a king. She was still narrow-minded.

The imperial concubine said: "Your majesty is wise, and my sister-in-law is very pleased."

That day the imperial concubine readily agreed to let Yan Lang enroll, but Qi Hengyuan knew that his sister-in-law still didn't like Yan Ning.

Qi Hengyuan didn't want Yan Ning to be blindsided, but he didn't want to refute her thoughts. She wanted to send Yan Lang to the Academy of Holy Philosophy, so... let her go.

"Chen Dongyan." The king called out.

Chen Dongyan stepped forward and responded, "Your Majesty."

Qi Hengyuan said: "You go out of the palace with Yan Meiren."

Chen Dongyan lowered his eyes, turned and walked out of the imperial study room. At that moment, he clearly heard the faint voice of joy coming from his heart. He knew it shouldn't be, but he couldn't control it.

He opened the sleeve of his left hand and looked at the string of beads. At a certain moment, he stretched out his right hand and held the string of beads tightly, as if he was embracing a certain woman.

Seeing Chen Dongyan coming in, Yan Ning knew that His Majesty Qi had allowed her to leave the palace, she smiled and said to Yan Lang: "Yan Lang, this is Chen Dongyan, Master Chen, the palace guard in front of His Majesty, hurry up Goodbye."

Yan Lang glanced at Chen Dongyan, his eyes swept over the saber on his waist, and saluted dutifully: "Yan Lang has met Mr. Chen."

Chen Dongyan looked at Yan Lang, very thin and dark, like a bamboo pole, the clothes should have been specially changed before entering the palace, very brand new, without any patches, but still shabby, almost the same as when Yan Ning entered the palace, the only The only difference is that one wears men's clothes and the other wears women's clothes, but they are both sackcloth.

Chen Dongyan said: "Let's go, Your Majesty asked me to take you out of the palace."

Escorted by Chen Dongyan, Yan Ning and his party quickly left the palace.

Yan Ning, Nian Die, and Yan Lang sat in the carriage, and Chen Dongyan acted as the driver, heading all the way to the Holy Philosophy College.

Arriving at the Academy of Holy Philosophy, the three of them got off the carriage one by one.

Chen Dongyan knocked on the door, the old man who guarded the door opened the door, saw Chen Dongyan, smiled and said: "Master Yan, are you here to pick up Master Hong?"

The old man's surname is Fang, and his name is Fang Sheng. He belongs to the Chen family. He grew up watching Chen Dongyan. The young master Hong he talks about is the third son of Chen Kang, the fourth master of the Chen family.

Chen Dongyan said: "Uncle Fang, I didn't come to pick up Chen Hong. I was ordered by His Majesty to send Yan Lang to school. This is Yan Lang, and this is Yan Mei."

Chen Dongyan introduced to Uncle Fang, and Uncle Fang immediately knelt down to salute Yanning.

Yan Ning said: "Uncle Fang, get up, Yan Lang will ask you to take care of him in the future."

Fang Bo said: "You are welcome Yanmei, I am just an old man guarding the gate, how can I take care of Young Master Yanlang, but the Empress Dowager ordered earlier that if Yanlang came, go directly to her, she is in Yaxian Pavilion Wait for him."

Chen Dongyan knew where Yaxian Pavilion was, and immediately led Yanning and his party inside.

Seeing the imperial concubine, the three of them saluted one by one. After standing up, Chen Dongyan said, "Emperor dowager, your majesty asked me to send Yan Lang to school."

The imperial concubine looked at Yan Lang, looked him up and down, and asked, "Your name is Yan Lang?"

Yan Lang replied: "Yes, the Empress Dowager."

The imperial concubine saw that Yan Lang was only ten years old, thin and dark, but he had an extraordinary bearing and the air of a general. It was not surprising to think that the Yan family had guarded Lanzhou Pass for generations.

Yan Shaohou Yanyun, who died in the battle, was also a romantic figure. This Yan Lang, if he grows up, he will definitely be able to shock one side.

It is not unreasonable for His Majesty to value Yan Lang.

It seems that His Majesty is more far-sighted.

The imperial concubine said gently: "Did you read any books when you were in Lanzhou Pass?"

"I have read it, but I prefer military books."

"It's okay, military books are also books, you can read military books, and you can also read other books. This is the book list of the Academy of Holy Philosophy. After paying the money, you can take the books back today. Next time the gentlemen have classes, you can bring the books. The books are not put in the college, but at home, and the gentlemen will tell you in advance what class to take every day, and you can just bring your own books when the time comes."

Yan Lang said: "Thank you for your advice, Imperial Concubine."

After speaking, she looked at Yan Ning, who understood what Yan Lang meant, and handed over the money for the book.

When Yan Ning took out the money, she suddenly realized the importance of money.

Previously in Jiang Country, she was indifferent to fame and fortune, wandering around the mountains and rivers, the least important thing was money, she didn't need money, she was with the mountains and rivers every day, what money did she want, there was no use for it.

After death, she opened her eyes and became Yan Ning. On the way to exile, she was well protected by her parents, and she didn't think about money.

After entering the palace, although she used all kinds of tricks every day, she did not have to worry about food and clothing. Now that Yan Lang was going to return to Yangcheng, Yan Ning suddenly felt that money had become more important.

It costs money to buy a house, it costs money to fetch books, it costs money to eat and drink, maybe the school will start next year, and there is also an entrance fee, and sometimes it also costs money in terms of human relations.

She can't make money, and the emperor's reward alone is probably not enough. Besides, the emperor's reward of gold and silver is good, and she can use it. If she rewards other things, she can't use it. You can't always use the money from your grandparents to support Yan Lang.

Yan Ning frowned, wondering if she had to find a way to make money?

The imperial concubine collected the book fee, and the next sentence was: "Tomorrow is the Spring Festival. Today is the [-]th day of the new year. Students will be on vacation until noon. Next year, the school will start on the [-]th. When the school starts, there will be an entrance fee. Do Yanmei people pay the entrance fee now, or do they have to pay after the start of school next year?"

Yan Ning is short of money, although she may look like a beauty, she is actually very poor.

Buying the house almost used up all the silver that her grandfather's family gave her to the palace, and the book fee she just paid was the gold and silver rewarded by His Majesty last time.

In fact, there are not many rewards, three thousand for silver and one thousand for gold.

The imperial decree says that there is a reward of [-] gold and silver treasures, but in fact, only the [-] silver and [-] gold can be used, and the rest are imperial gifts that cannot be used.

Originally, this money was quite a lot, plus she is a beauty now, and she still has a monthly allowance of two hundred silver, which is enough to become a little rich woman if she doesn't spend it carelessly.

But the College of Holy Philosophy is not any other college. The entrance fee here is very high, and the textbook fee is also expensive. The textbook fee just paid has already cost a thousand silver.

Yan Ning asked: "Emperor Dowager, how much is the entrance fee?"

The imperial concubine said: "Not much, two thousand silver a year."

Yan Ning: "..."

That's not much?How can it be called more!

One year of study, two thousand silver, ordinary people really can't afford it, it's worthy of the Royal Academy!

Yan Ning handed over the remaining two thousand silver to the Empress Dowager, who had always regarded money as dung, seeing the Empress Dowager take away the three thousand silver from her was really painful.

The imperial concubine didn't like her, so she didn't kill her on purpose, right?
Are books and tuition really so expensive?
She looked at Chen Dongyan suspiciously.

Chen Dongyan didn't know why, and asked, "Is there something wrong with Yanmei?"

Yan Ning shook her head depressedly: "No."

The imperial concubine said: "The books and tuition fees have been paid. When the school starts next year, Yan Lang will be able to come directly. The students of the Academy of Holy Philosophy will solve the problem of food and lodging by themselves."

As she spoke, she glanced at Yan Ning, who immediately responded, "I see, I will arrange Yan Lang's board and lodging."

"That's good."

Although the imperial concubine does not like Yan Ning, she will never treat Yan Lang harshly.

Firstly, Yan Lang is still a child, and she has always liked children, because she has no children, so she treats the children of all families in Qi State as her own children; The concubine will only cultivate with all her heart, and will not kill.

I deliberately confessed to Yan Ning, because I was afraid that Yan Ning would not take good care of Yan Lang.

Yan Lang took the book and left the Holy Philosophy Academy. Yan Ning took him to the new house and asked Yan Lang, "Do you like this place?"

Yan Lang turned around and nodded: "I like it."

Yan Ning said: "I bought this house for you to live in. Do you want to live here alone, or go to Ning's house?"

Yan Lang said, "I live here."

Yan Ning was worried: "I don't feel at ease if you live here alone. There are many Ning family members, so don't think that you are depending on others. The Ning family members are very good. If you go, they will treat you like your own."

Yan Lang knew that Ning's family was Yan Ning's maternal ancestral family, so his character was naturally good, he said: "Fourth sister is worrying too much, I don't think that living in Ning's family is dependent on others, I also believe that Ning's family will treat me like this My own, but I don't want to bother them. Although I am studying in the Holy Philosophy Academy, I will continue to practice martial arts, and I am afraid that it will affect the Ning family. I live alone, so it would be better."

After he finished speaking, his eyes swept across the sword at Chen Dongyan's waist. Chen Dongyan is such a keen person. Just now in the palace, he found that Yan Lang paid special attention to his saber. Now again, it seems that Yan Lang wanted to Ask for a sword.

Chen Dongyan saw it through but didn't say anything, leaned against a big tree not far away, and said nothing.

Yan Ning respects Yan Lang, Yan Lang said that he lives here alone, and Yan Ning will follow him.

Yan Ning said: "If you want to live here alone, then you can live here. Anyway, it is close to the Holy Philosophy College, and it is only a few steps away. It is convenient to come back to eat and sleep. It is still a bit far away from Ning's house, and it is not easy to go back and forth." So convenient."

Yan Lang wants to stay, Yan Ning has to go shopping, her body is too weak to be too tired, Yan Lang has just arrived, he is still a child, Yan Ning does not want him to run errands, he is not familiar with Guiyang City, lost his way It's troublesome if you can't come back.

Yan Ning asked: "Master Chen, can I ask you for a favor?"
