Zhiyuan nodded. Although she had some conflicts with the eunuch, it gradually faded away because of money... As for the people who assassinated her back then, neither side made it clear, that is, they pretended it never happened.

So Zhiyuan went directly to Zhang Rang's house, of course not in an aboveboard way, but a night visit secretly.There are no eternal allies, only eternal interests, and Zhiyuan must have intersected with them after entering the palace.

And Zhang Rang was also very happy to see Zhiyuan's arrival, especially after Zhiyuan gave him a thousand taels of silver...

"Although our family is an eunuch, we also know that the harem should be one with the eunuch. The girl will marry Shi Hou in the future, and we may need to cooperate more."

"Originally, this position was a woman from Tang Mao's family, but who made you a girl with great abilities? This was appointed by everyone (the emperor), and it is a great honor."

Zhi Yuan thought to herself: "I would rather not have this kind of honor..."

She said to Zhang Zang: "I plan to spend another two years... Now that the prince is young, I heard that he has a weak personality. Since I am called a tiger girl, I naturally want to change his temperament."

"After all...Although the Son of Heaven asks me to marry Shihou, I can still refuse, at least our Tang family has the right..."

Zhang Rang shook his head: "You tiger girl is really messing around, you know that doing this will make the emperor look bad..."

Zhiyuan chuckled: "I give the emperor a lot of money every year. I think letting me enter the harem is a waste of my earning talent."

This is true, because the emperor and these eunuchs are short of money.As soon as the kite was sold, it was at the million dollar level. It wasn't a lot, but it was definitely not a lot.

After all, the gentry had money, and the Yuan family had hundreds of millions of money, but what did these have to do with the emperor?No matter how rich the gentry was, they couldn't give the royal family a penny, but Zhiyuan earned money every year.

Zhang Rang sighed, and then asked one of his men to bring in a rockery carved with a large piece of jadeite. "This thing, after you enter the palace tomorrow, give it to the queen...she will definitely like it."

The value of this thing is not less than a million, and Zhang Rang also intends to make friends with Zhiyuan, so in the face of Zhiyuan giving him a thousand taels of silver, he gave this thing to Zhiyuan, and Zhiyuan thanked him again and said goodbye.

The next day after Tang Zhen went to court, she brought the kite to the back gate of the palace, where eunuchs were waiting.

"Entering the harem, you know it's not a blessing, but my daughter is not weak, so don't worry about it." Zhi Yuan took a deep breath and entered the harem.

Some simple systems in this book

Someone asked me about how much a tael of silver was in the short comment earlier, so I sorted it out.

There may be mistakes, but basically it should be like this.

weight:

One catty is equal to 240-200 grams

One catty is divided into 16 taels

One tael is 24 baht

currency:

One tael of gold is equal to twelve taels of silver

One tael of silver is equal to one copper coin

A consistent copper coin is equal to ten hanging copper coins

A hanging copper coin is equal to one hundred Wen

food:

A bucket of rice is equal to about twelve catties

One stone equals four jun equals ten buckets

That is to say, one jun is equal to about thirty catties, and one stone is equal to about 120 catties.

Note 1: There are three types of gold, gold, platinum, and red gold, among which red gold is brass.

Note 2: After Dong Zhuo came to power, he produced small coins on a large scale, and the copper content was only about 40%. The copper content of the five plants in the Eastern Han Dynasty was about 70%-80%.

So many times in the future, including the trading of paper kites, it will be barter.Although there are also money transactions, the amount will only increase.

Note 3: Food prices... This fluctuates too much, and there is no way to count it.

Tentatively, before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, one stone of grain was about 300 yuan.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it was around 1000 yuan, and it stabilized back to 500 yuan in the next few years.

When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, during the crusade against Dong Zhuo, the price of food increased to about [-] yuan.

Note 4: The salary of officials in the Han Dynasty is food, because food is more valuable than five baht coins. For example, Zhiyuan’s female historian’s annual salary is two thousand stones (three ranks in the Jin Dynasty), which is about between Jiuqing and the princes...

To give a few examples: San Gong, who was Zhi Yuan's father's original position, earned 4200 shi a year.

Jiuqing, 2160 stone.Princes, 1800 stone.

Chapter 160 Six: He Shi

The imperial palace is huge, if no one took the kite, they would probably get lost.Especially if Zhiyuan walked all over by herself, she might not be able to find her way back.

The little eunuch turned around and took the kite through some avenues, then some small paths, and finally passed a flower bed, a pond, and came to a majestic palace.

Zhiyuan swallowed, if it wasn't for the eunuch's lack of murderous intent, Zhiyuan would have thought that this eunuch was planning to take her somewhere and was surrounded and killed.There are tall city walls everywhere in this place, and Zhiyuan can't even tell the difference between southeast and north.

There are quite a few people here, mostly women.The main position is a young woman in her 30s, eating fruit while looking at the paper kite.

Next to the woman was a boy in his teens who looked a little thin.Beside the woman, the eyes looking towards Zhiyuan were a little nervous.

And the eunuch who brought Zhiyuan in front of Zhiyuan whispered to Zhiyuan, "That person is the queen and Shihou, hurry up and pay a visit."

Zhiyuan nodded, then came here with small steps, and bowed to the young woman. "Tang Zhiyuan met the queen, Shihou."

Mrs. He nodded: "What a pretty woman, I don't believe the rumors outside. There are rumors that the tiger girl is a woman who is nine feet tall, with big arms and round waist, and looks like a tiger. Now it seems that she is no different from our ordinary women. ah."

"How can that evil pen be so legendary?" Zhi Yuan cursed inwardly.

Then he smiled at Mrs. He again: "Those are just rumors, or some words about going to the meeting. If I really have that appearance, how dare the emperor let me enter this harem? I'm not afraid that I will scare others into sickness." what?"

"Hahahaha..." A group of people laughed, even a group of court ladies and eunuchs couldn't help laughing.That child, Liu Bian, was also a little out of breath, and it took He's strokes for a while before he stopped.

He looked at Zhi Yuan: "You are an interesting girl, and I have heard people say what you think. But my child is really weak, it would be best if the girl can help me take care of one or two."

"But the girl is not young, so I still hope to make a decision early. After all, even if she looks good, it's only a few years."

Zhiyuan nodded. She is almost seventeen now, and she is already an older unmarried young woman in this era.This kind of thing should indeed be considered, even if Zhiyuan didn't want to, she still had to face this problem.

Of course, this is also the reason why Yuan Shu took advantage of Yuan Shu and didn't treat him too much this time.When women in ancient times really got married, Zhi Yuan also felt that they should maximize their profits.

After all, she is a very sensible woman.

Then He said to Zhiyuan: "Come and sit, let me take a good look at you. Speaking of which, I heard that you also made this chair?"

Zhiyuan nodded: "I asked Yuan Gongtong to find someone to do some later, and it spread."

Speaking of Yuan Shu, Mrs. He frowned: "Are you very close to the Yuan family?"

Zhiyuan didn't hide anything: "Yes, because I want to get some money to support my brother."

"The Yuan family is rich, so I earn some money from them."

He Shi asked again: "But as a daughter of the Three Dukes, it's not good for you to be that kind of lowly businessman?"

Zhiyuan smiled lightly: "Although the status of a businessman is humble, money is a good thing."

"The construction of a town is inseparable from money. It also needs money to hire some long-term workers, even if it is to prevent some gangsters from doing evil, and it also needs money to support some family members Xiangyong."

"Compared to the days without money, the Queen's sister has a deep feeling? Although a businessman is a cheap business, money is indispensable."

He didn't object this time, she nodded: "Yes, money is indeed a good thing. Now the emperor is also worried about money. After all, to build a new army, money is needed everywhere."

"I don't mean anything malicious, but I don't want you to get too close to the Yuan family. Because the emperor doesn't like it..."

Zhiyuan nodded, of course she knew why.What the hell, the current Yuan family is the leader of the party, and just found a disgusting thing for Liu Hong, actually supporting the Marquis of Hefei, and wanting to abolish the current Liu Hong.

Although it was quickly suppressed, Liu Hong always wanted to ban the party again.But what you need to do before that is to have your own army, and the combat effectiveness of this army must be strong.

"I will keep my distance from the other party." Zhi Yuan made a promise to He Shi, of course, this promise is basically useless, even if Zhi Yuan kept her distance, Yuan Shu would post it.

The two chatted a few more gossips, and then Mrs. He patted Shihou's head next to him with a look of doting. "Daughter of the Tang family, I want Shi Hou to stay with you for a while. Originally, Wang Yue taught him his sword skills, but Wang Yue didn't dare to take it too seriously, so he just handed in some moves to strengthen his body."

"But I'm afraid that with his temperament, even if he becomes the emperor in the future, he will be bullied by those ministers. You must have some special abilities as a tiger girl. Maybe he may be your husband in the future, so I hope you will take care of him."

"Actually, I told the emperor to let you enter the palace. After all, you girl is capable and kind-hearted...do you understand my painstaking efforts?"

He really didn't have any malicious intentions, he was just talking to Zhiyuan from a mother's point of view.Because of Zhiyuan's age and usual style, in He's eyes, she already looks like a strong woman.

He doesn't think that a strong daughter-in-law will have any impact on her status.On the contrary, He felt that in the future she could join forces with Zhi Yuan to protect the interests of the harem.

Zhiyuan nodded, and then agreed. "I'm sure I won't let him have trouble, but he will definitely suffer. In fact, his weak temperament has a place that suits him best...the military camp."

"Becoming a soldier is the greatest training for a person, and it can also make a person grow up quickly. But I just don't know, is there a real royal army in Luoyang City?"

He hesitated for a moment. After all, he wanted to send his son to a group of soldiers. If something happened, the consequences would be disastrous.But what this woman said was not wrong, and it is impossible for a foreign woman to be bought by other forces behind her, so what she said should be the truth.

But really go to the army... Mrs. He thought for a while, and then said to Zhiyuan: "The Habayashi Cavalry is my husband's direct team, but the training of the army is a bit slack now, otherwise it is impossible for my husband to set up another team." The eighth school captain of Xiyuan."

"Alright, I just need to let Shi Hou experience it. No matter what Habayashi Qi said, it is safer in this palace. I will protect Shi Hou thoroughly." Zhi Yuan said to He Shi.

Although He loves her child very much, she also knows that Shi Hou's temperament is too weak.Although seeing Zhiyuan for the first time, He Shi has a feeling that he and Zhiyuan are the same kind of people.

Chapter 160 Seven: Shopping

Then the paper kite presented the jade again, and He happily put it away.Let Zhiyuan let out a sigh of relief, after all, that Zhang didn't deceive herself.

Then Mrs. He invited Zhiyuan to have a meal, and arranged a place for Zhiyuan.After leaving here, Zhiyuan felt her back was wet.

In the previous life, what Zhi Yuan disliked the most was seeing her parents, and this was the first time she came to this world and the first time she saw the male parents.Although Zhiyuan didn't think there would be any result between herself and that Shihou.

Liu Bian is not ugly, and gives people the impression that he is a white-faced niche.But it is indeed a bit weak, and even Shi Hou, who was talking to Zhi Yuan earlier, felt a little bit weak.

It's really the kind that makes Zhiyuan feel like she doesn't want to be bullied, after all, the fate of this unlucky child is indeed quite miserable.

But speaking of it, Zhiyuan seems to have been taking care of children recently.Tang Xuejian, her adopted daughter, is now a toddler and can already call her mother.It's just... the title "Niangqin" made Zhiyuan herself feel weird.

Probably because I am really old. After all, the age of modern people cannot be used to judge the maturity of ancient people.

After the kite was taken down, Liu Bian said submissively to Mrs. He, "Mother... I don't like that girl, I always think she's too scary."

He smiled: "Is it because of the appearance?"

Liu Bian shook his head: "No, I always feel that she has a strong smell of blood on her body, especially when she was sitting here just now. She must have killed many people, and I think she is too scary."

He smiled again: "To be honest, I don't like this tiger girl either, but you need a strong woman."

"Your temper is too weak, and my husband...he was very angry by those nobles last time, and now his health is getting worse and worse."

"Mother wants you to be the emperor, how will you manage the officials after you say you are so weak-tempered?"

"So even if you don't like her, you're afraid of her... I want you to practice by her side. And that mother doesn't think about her own children."

Liu Bian had an aggrieved expression: "But I don't want to be the emperor. Isn't it good for my brother to be the emperor? I have to do it..."

"Pa..." He slapped the table with a slap.

"Let your brother be the emperor? Then what do you do? What about our He family? We are just butchers, and I don't know how many people see our He family as unhappy."

"If you really let your younger brother become the emperor, I'm afraid it will be the beginning of our family's destruction. The emperor will not leave a threat to himself, don't think that your relationship is not bad now."

"If you are more confident, why would I let that tiger girl look after you? No matter how bad the tiger girl is, she can be considered a hero among women. If you really can't, then I can only join forces with her."

Liu Bian let out an "oh" and stopped talking.

And Mrs. He looked at an eunuch next to him, and said to him: "Is this jade from Zhang Rang's family? I mentioned it to him last time, but I didn't expect it to be sent in by the hand of this tiger girl. "

"This tiger girl dares to follow the path of an eunuch...but I should also force her to completely break with the gentry."

"Go and tell Zhang Rang, let him reveal that Zhiyuan colluded with their eunuch, and say that Tang Zhiyuan gave the eunuch tens of millions of money in order to marry Shihou."

The little eunuch went down, and Zhiyuan got involved in the struggle of various forces again.

"Hey...the bed is so hard..." Zhiyuan looked around the room, the furniture was very simple.

It was just a small room of more than ten square meters, probably because there were so many maids in the harem, so even though Zhi Yuan was considered a female official, the room was not that big.

"It's so boring... When the hell is this..." Zhi Yuan couldn't bring a weapon when entering the palace, so now he doesn't even have anything for self-defense.

It's afternoon now, it's still a bit early, so it's impossible for Zhiyuan to sleep.Zhiyuan, who was a little bored, planned to go out for a walk, by the way, to see whether Liu Hong's subordinates were strong or not.

It is called Habayashi Cavalry... It is a cavalry with almost 3000 people.These cavalry are generally used as guards of the palace, and they are relatively leisurely on weekdays.

But also because of idleness, many families put idlers from one of their branches in to dawdle, resulting in the overall combat effectiveness of the Habayashi Cavaliers. Otherwise, Liu Hong would not be able to reorganize the army.

Liu Hong's health is not very good, which is also a disadvantage of this era.After all... There are still too few people who can live to a certain age, and most of them get sick and die in middle age.
