The wives of the concubines are empresses

The three-day deadline has arrived, and Shangguan Wanjun brought Concubine Xian - Lady Lin and Concubine Yun - Zhao Yunfan to the Ministry of Works.

The Minister of Works glanced at the two concubines beside the emperor. He remembered that both of them seemed to have the reputation of being playboys. It seemed that their families did not value them, so they were chosen to enter the palace.

"Minister of Works, why are you looking at my two concubines? Is there anything wrong with them?" This man looked at her man openly in front of her, which made her feel scared.

The Minister of Works seems to be a normal person, so he shouldn't be a homosexual.

If the Minister of Works knew that his master had a different opinion of him because of his two extra glances, he would definitely cry his heart out.

The Ministry of Works has been filled with a faint fragrance these days. That's because the Minister of Works brought incense from his wife at home and lit it.

"Minister of Works, did you light some incense?" Why did she smell a faint fragrance?

The Minister of Works blushed and said, "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I did light some incense to purify the Ministry of Works."

Shangguan Wanjun was amused when she heard this. This Minister of Works was also an interesting person. She reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"As expected of a minister, his brain works very quickly."

The Minister of Works, who was inexplicably praised, was somewhat flattered.

"Your Majesty is joking."

Shangguan Wanjun did not see any familiar figures in the crowd.

"Where is Lady Mu?" Where did her bookish beloved concubine go?

The Minister of Works bowed and said, "Still busy in the Craftsmen Department."

"What are you busy with? Come on, I'll go take a look." I don't know if the jar I asked you to make a few days ago is finished.

The ministers followed the emperor and rushed to the Department of Craftsmen.

When Shangguan Wanjun arrived, a jar was blocking the entrance door.

"Is this the jar I want?"

Shangguan Wanjun reached out and knocked, and the sound was very loud.

"Not bad, it should be firm."

Liu Cheng complained: It is solid, but it costs money.

The Defei inside - Mu Wennian was stunned when she heard the familiar voice.

The emperor is here?

The moment I looked up, I met a pair of disturbing eyes.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." On the surface, he was still paying homage.

Several craftsmen moved the iron pot away, and Shangguan Wanjun walked into the craftsmen's department wearing embroidered shoes.

"Thank you all for your hard work. Hey, my beloved, where is the storage box I wanted?" Should it be renamed as a storage jar?

But it sounds a bit awkward.

Private Men's Academy

Yun Yangfan also prepared lessons for himself, but usually only one class a day.

Ziyou said, "Zixia's disciples should sweep the floor, answer questions, and advance and retreat. This is all well and good, but it only suppresses the superficial. If the root is missing, what can we do?" Zixia heard this and said, "Alas! You are wrong! Who is the first to pass on the way of a gentleman, and who is the last to learn it?"

Like plants and trees, they are distinct. How can the way of a gentleman be falsely accused? Only a sage can have a beginning and an end.

Which book is this from?"

A handsome middle-grade student raised his hand. Yun Yangfan saw him and asked him to stand up and answer.

"You said."

"Mr. Hui, this is from The Analects of Confucius, Zi Zhang."

Yun Fanfan nodded slightly: "Yes, the answer is correct. Please take a seat! Who will explain it next?"

A middle-grade student with an upright posture raised his hand.

"Okay, come on."

Ziyou said: "It is okay for Zixia's students to do some cleaning and welcoming guests, but these are just minor matters. How can they do this if they haven't learned the fundamentals?" Zixia heard this and said: "Ah! Ziyou is wrong!

"Which path of the gentleman is taught first and which is taught later is like the difference between grass and wood. How can the way of the gentleman be arbitrarily distorted? Only a sage can teach students in order from beginning to end!"

Yun Yangfan pursed his lips and nodded in satisfaction: "That's a very good answer. Please take a seat!"

"Thank you, sir."

When Master Yun had nothing to do, he would visit the two private academies. Listening to the students reading aloud, he felt that the future was promising.

In the girls' college, each class has different courses.

A young girl was holding a book and teaching the students in the small class to read aloud as she walked.

"The unicorn is the leader of caterpillars, and the tiger is the king of beasts."

The students sat at attention: "The unicorn is the leader of caterpillars, and the tiger is the king of beasts."

"The unicorn, the phoenix, the tortoise, and the dragon are called the Four Spirits; the dog, the pig, and the chicken are called the Three Animals."

Students: "The unicorn, the phoenix, the tortoise, and the dragon are called the Four Spirits; the dog, the pig, and the chicken are called the Three Animals."

Lu, Lu, Hua and Liu are the names of good horses; Tailao and Dawu are the names of cattle.

……

From Volume 4 of "Youxue Qionglin" - Birds and Beasts.

When male and female teachers were in class, there would be special people outside the classroom to record their situation and send it to the Imperial Study every day.

After the iron pot and storage pot were completed, Shangguan Wanjun put one thing aside.

Gong Huifang took her maid Huan'er Mo'er out of the house to buy some things, but they met the emperor's carriage on the road and hurriedly avoided it.

"Xiangjun, it's the emperor."

Gong Huifang looked up at the carriage and only vaguely saw a woman's figure. She was a little disappointed.

After the imperial carriage left, Gong Huifang continued shopping with the maids and servants.

"My dear, why don't we buy some cakes?" In the past, when they were in the palace, they had nothing to eat. Their young lady had no share of the delicious food, and all that went to the second young lady who was born out of wedlock.

Gong Huifang thought about how her maid had suffered a lot during those years with her, so she immediately agreed.

"Let's go."

The three of them picked and chose, and finally chose osmanthus cake and mung bean cake.

While paying the bill, a young girl walked in.

"Big sister, you come and buy some cakes too. Grandma said she wants to eat some, so I'll bring some back for you." It just so happened that she wanted to save some money.

Gong Huifang wanted to roll her eyes: "Since Grandmother asked my second sister to buy it, then you should buy it. Why are you trying to steal my eldest sister's?"

The girl was Gong Huifang's half-sister Gong Huimin, and her face turned red at this moment.

"What nonsense are you talking about, big sister? Didn't grandma ask you to buy it?" Damn it, this bitch actually dared to expose and insult her in person.

Mo'er said loudly, "Second Miss, our country lord is buying cakes to entertain distinguished guests. You should choose something else."

This second young lady was indeed raised by a concubine. She is not presentable and has a petty air.

Upon hearing this, Gong Huimin angrily slapped Mo'er.

"You bastard, you have no right to interrupt when the master is talking."

Gong Huifang was so angry that she slapped her in the face.

A bright red slap mark appeared on the girl's tender face.

"Gong Huifang, how dare you hit me."

Gong Huifang sneered: "Why, can't a legitimate sister teach a concubine's younger sister who doesn't know the rules and doesn't know the hierarchy?"

When Mo'er saw her hometown master beating someone for her, she was stunned for a moment.

Gong Huimin saw the two bags of pastries in Huan'er's hands and slammed them to the ground.

"I'll let you eat until you die."

Huan'er was so angry that her eyes widened as she stepped on the good cakes.

"Second Miss, you've gone too far." Here are two taels of silver.

Gong Huifang sneered, "Go ahead, Hongxiang Jun will ask someone to ask Auntie to reimburse you."

It's just such a thing, but she was tortured by them mother and daughter for so many years. It's really funny.

Gong Huimin stopped when she heard this.

"You are not allowed to go."

Gong Huifang snorted coldly and turned around: "Oh, if you kill someone, you must pay your life, if you owe money, you must pay the money, and if you damage something, you must compensate for the price. Why are you not allowed to go? Could it be that she, a concubine, is the one who calls the shots in the Palace Mansion?"

Humph, I am the prince of the country now. To put it nicely, I have the emperor's support. I will not be afraid of you bitches, mother and daughter.
