During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Luo Tingye did not let Jiang Miao continue, but handed the matter over to Yuan Li for investigation.

Because it involved the Queen's property, Yuan Li investigated very promptly and found out the matter in just three days, thanks to the telegram.

Luo Tingye showed the results to Jiang Miao, "When I first came to the throne, I had a lot of things to deal with, and I accidentally let someone take advantage of it."

Speaking of which, not many of the old people who followed them can still stick to their true intentions.

Once people gain wealth and power, they will be dazzled.

Jiang Miao read all the lines at a glance, "Did Zhong Huai be bribed by someone from the Xie family?"

A trace of gloom flashed across Luo Tingye's face, "The two concubines Zhong Huai married were all skinny horses sent by the Xie family. They were trained since childhood and are good at conquering men."

The Xie family also spent money to win over Zhong Huai, otherwise ordinary girls may not be able to seduce Zhong Huai.

Jiang Miao had long known that Zhong Huai was unreliable, but she didn't know that he was so ruthless behind his back.

"How are Mrs. Zhong and the children doing?"

"Sister-in-law Zhong and her three children stay in the old house. Every month Zhong Huai asks someone to send money there, which is just enough for daily expenses."

But it only maintains daily expenses. If Zhong Shan hadn't secretly provided support, life would have been even more difficult for the children and adults.

Jiang Miao didn't understand, "Don't Zhong Shan and Zhong Bai Zhong Yang know what Zhong Huai did?"

"Zhong Shan is old. He suffered a stroke a year ago and was speechless. Zhong Huai did not tell his two younger brothers. Yuan Li suspected that Zhong Shan's stroke might have been caused by Zhong Huai. He might have deliberately not told his two younger brothers. younger brother."

Zhong Huai may have known that he was being set up, but he couldn't extricate himself from it, and he didn't want to be exposed, so he could only try his best to hide it.

Zhong Shan had worked as a housekeeper in a wealthy family before, so he might have seen some tricks, but unfortunately something happened before he could bring his son back.

Jiang Miao hesitated again and again, "Zhong Huai knows a lot about us. How do you plan to deal with him?"

"I plan to transfer him to the capital, so that I can get the property back quietly, and at the same time, I can see what the Xie family is up to."

"Who should I send?"

Luo Tingye was also thinking about the candidates, "I will think of ways to hire people, or I can send people from the palace."

Jiang Miao nodded and sighed, "There are still too few people we can use. What do you think about the fact that I asked the court to take over the nursery?"

"The Ministry of Revenue has no extra money now. Jiangnan can't collect the money. It's hard to do anything you want to do. Why don't you start with the nursery in the capital. I think the Ministry of Revenue will have money by the end of the year."

Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, "I'm just giving you an opinion. I didn't say that I should manage it. The nursery should be managed by the imperial court. I'll manage it. What's going on? Besides, isn't there a saying that goes well? The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. .”

Luo Tingye's thin lips showed a perfect curved smile, "This sentence does not hold true for you and me, you can interfere in the government affairs."

The most important thing is to have that ability.

Jiang Miao asked weakly: "What do you think of my ability?"

Luo Tingye considered that there was no one to take over the nursery, so he reluctantly said: "Not bad, his ability is outstanding."

"Really?" Jiang Miao felt a little carried away.

Luo Tingye nodded, "Of course, Dessert House and Beauty Shop are making a fortune every day under your management. They are the most profitable projects in the capital. If you don't have the ability, who can!" Jiang Miao became even more excited, "Okay then. , leave the capital nursery to me, but this money?"

Luo Tingye choked and immediately changed the subject, "The household department has no money, and the real money will be used to compete with the aristocratic family, so..."

Jiang Miao was a little unhappy, "You probably said that because you thought I was rich. Do you want me to contribute my efforts and money?"

"Of course not. Of course I said this because I value your ability." Luo Tingye's expression was very serious, and he could learn from others.

Jiang Miao reluctantly believed him, "Okay, I can think of a way around the money."

After the news that Zhong Huai came to the capital to take up a post spread, Jiang Miao and Eunuch Fulin discussed the manpower to go to Yuzhou. After the agreement was reached, they began to think about the nursery.

It just so happened that Lan Xin was married to Ouyang Zhen and was busy at home all day, so he simply asked her to serve as the director of the nursery. With her watching over her on weekdays, the stewards of the nursery did not dare to deduct anything from the children.

Many officials and family members learned that the queen had taken over the nursery and took the initiative to send them food, food and clothes. Jiang Miao accepted them all.

It took a few days to solve the problem of food in the nursery.

Jiang Miao divided the children in the nursery into three waves, one group for those under seven years old, one group for those between eight and twelve years old, and one group for those over twelve years old.

According to the regulations of the nursery, children must leave when they reach the age of sixteen.

She knew that after many children went out, they lived on the streets all day long because they had no land or relatives. In the end, many became beggars, and a very few found work.

Jiang Miao realized that it was not enough to just feed and clothe them, she had to find a way for them to survive in the future.

First, read.

Reading is so important. She feels that a large part of the reason why Mysterious Town is so good is that the children there have been studying since they were young, and some are still studying in their twenties.

The benefits of studying can be seen from her own body. She didn't know a few words at first, but later she started studying, and now she knows more things, has more money, and understands more things.

If children can read, they will at least be able to understand things in the future and know what to do when encountering problems.

But where can I find a teacher?

The first thing Jiang Miao thought of was Hu Jijiu. She had given a lot of glass windows to Guozixue. It was time for the people of Guozixue to repay the favor.

Jiang Miao deliberately found a day with good weather and came to Guozixue with a few bags of snacks made by herself.

Hu Jijiu and others did not expect that the Queen would come suddenly. After careful questioning, they understood the Queen's intention.

Hu Jijiu is very supportive of teaching children in the nursery.

"Queen, this is just a small matter and worthy of your coming in person."

"The children in the nursery are also my children, and it is my duty to work for the welfare of the children. Aren't I worried that you won't agree when others come to me?"

Jiang Miao smiled and said: "It's okay now. You have to agree after eating my snacks."

Hu Jijiu: "..."

Even if there are no snacks, they still have to agree!

"I need a total of ten masters. First of all, they will be based on Chinese and academic subjects. It would be better if there are masters who can speak Xiongnu and Xianbei."
