Whenever Emperor Taihe thought of Xie Yun's furious look, he felt relaxed all over.

Both he and his father disliked Xie Yun, so they kept suppressing him and prevented him from getting promoted.

However, Xie Yun’s talent is indeed very good, and it is not good to waste it directly.

So Xie Yun has been in the Hanlin Academy for many years.

He did a good job, but now he is exiled to the border and no one knows what he looks like now.

Emperor Taihe thought about it and decided to send someone to bring him the news that Qu Wan'er had remarried and that Xie Ying had been conferred the title of Princess.

Just consider it as compensation for the suppression he has suffered over the years.

Emperor Taihe smiled sarcastically, then strode out of the palace. He first ordered someone to send a rickshaw to Concubine Jiang, and then took his rickshaw to the Empress Dowager's Renshou Palace.

Situ Yuan brought four rickshaws into the palace. The Empress Dowager and Yang Tao each got one, but Emperor Taihe got two.

One of them was obviously prepared for Concubine Jiang.

But she was not the queen now, and if Situ Yuan gave her the car directly, it would inevitably be a bit unreasonable, so he gave it directly to Emperor Taihe.

Emperor Taihe wanted to make Concubine Jiang the empress, but Concubine Jiang persuaded him not to do so, thinking that now was not the right time.

In the past, Chen Huan occupied the throne of queen and pretended to be a virtuous and non-competitive queen. The Chen family also deliberately hired people to spread rumors among the people to ruin the reputation of Concubine Jiang.

But Concubine Jiang thought that the prince was dead and she could not get pregnant again, so she was full of resentment and acted arrogantly.

Even if the Chen family and Chen Huan were eliminated, her reputation as a demon concubine had already spread throughout the world, and it was impossible to reverse it overnight.

Although Concubine Jiang didn't want to wait too long, for the sake of her son Yang Tao, she was willing to suppress her anger and imitate Chen Huan, pretending to be a virtuous queen.

Although she liked Cao Wanning's poems very much, a few lines of poetry were far from enough.

The four academies and colleges under construction in Gusu are exactly the help she needs!

At this moment, she was discussing with Jiang Er about donating books.

A college not only needs teachers and students, but also books.

The palace has the largest collection of books, which is by no means comparable to the collections among the people.

Many scholars will never be able to read many books unless they enter the palace.

So Jiang Er suggested that they pick out some books from the palace collection, print them into books and place them in the library of the academy. Concubine Jiang agreed without thinking.

What she wanted to donate were these printed books.

As long as she donates these books, she will see if those scholars still have the nerve to scold her!

"You did a great job in building the academy and holding the poetry competition."

Concubine Jiang looked at her brother with satisfaction, "I never thought you could be so successful."

Jiang Er's face instantly fell: "Sister, was I just a waste in your eyes before?"

Imperial Concubine Jiang raised her eyebrows and twisted his ear in dissatisfaction: "You used to do nothing but fool around all day, and now you still have the nerve to talk like that?"

Jiang Er recalled his previous appearance and suddenly didn't dare to say anything.

He felt that he could not be blamed for his previous mischief.

But he felt ashamed when he thought about it, so how could he have the nerve to argue?

Unexpectedly, Concubine Jiang quickly asked, "Do you have a girl you like? You are old enough now, and it is time to settle your lifelong affairs properly.

With Jiang Yao's background, he is destined to not be promoted in the future, and Jiang Xue's future marriage will also be affected.

Fortunately, Qi was already pregnant. If she could give birth to a boy, she would be a great contributor to the Jiang family.

But you can't rely entirely on your brother for this kind of thing. You also have to work harder, get married quickly, and have more children.

If the Jiang family wants to prosper, they must work hard to expand and have descendants, otherwise all their current efforts will be in vain.

Jiang Cheng, you are my brother, and you are also a son of the Jiang family. You must shoulder your responsibilities!"

Jiang Er quickly said, "Don't worry, big sister. When I find a woman I like, I will definitely have eight or ten children to expand the Jiang family!"

Concubine Jiang gave him a disdainful look: "Ten or eight? You dare to think so!"

Jiang Er was able to give birth to two sons, and his parents had to burn incense and thank their ancestors.

She quickly asked, "So when do you plan to get married?"

Jiang Er was embarrassed: "Sister, it's not that I don't want to get married, it's just that I haven't met the right person yet. You saw what happened to Jia before, how can marriage be a joke!

Back then, my parents were too anxious and married my eldest brother to Jia, but what happened? That woman was a disaster, causing no peace in the family!

It also implicated Yaoer and Xueer."

Jiang Er felt sad when he thought of Jiang Yao and Jiang Xue, "Sister, I don't want my child to become like that, so I must choose my wife carefully!

Even if I have someone I like, I will still carefully check their family background. I can't marry someone who will bring disaster to my family."

Concubine Jiang thought of Jiang Yao and Jiang Xue and could only sigh helplessly.

When Jia was making trouble, she sent someone to bring the two children into the palace.

Although she didn't like Jia, the two children had been in the palace for some time and looked like Jiang Chi, so it was hard for her not to like them.

It’s a pity that Jia has the blood of the Chen family’s traitors in her veins, and she cannot help but consider His Majesty and Tao’er.

However, they are ultimately much luckier than others.

At least I can survive and grow up well in the Jiang family.

It just doesn't have a good future.

Imperial Concubine Jiang sighed and said, "Forget it. Since you don't want to now, I won't force you. You are right. You must choose your wife carefully and never be careless."

She didn't want her second brother to marry a troublemaker. If the two sisters-in-law didn't get along well, it would not be good for the Jiang family at all.

As soon as the two finished talking, Taihe Emperor's people sent a rickshaw.

Concubine Jiang had already heard the palace servant's report, and her eyes lit up, her face full of joy and anticipation.

She looked at Jiang Er: "Is that rickshaw really as good as you said?"

Jiang Er nodded hurriedly: "It's really good. When sitting on it, if the person pulling the cart is galloping all the way, the wind will blow on your face all the time, just like when you are riding a horse at full speed, and it's not bumpy at all, it's very comfortable!

But it's cold now, so you shouldn't be exposed to the wind, and the ground is slippery, so you still have to be careful. I'll try again in spring when the weather warms up."

Concubine Jiang thought what he said made sense, so she nodded and said, "I'll just sit for a while. I won't be dragged around."

After saying that, she took Jiang Er out and tested the car herself.

Just sitting in the car, Concubine Jiang felt particularly satisfied.

The seat and back cushions of this car are very soft, and the back cushions will firmly support her back, so she doesn't need to sit upright. It is really comfortable.

Concubine Jiang almost immediately became disgusted with the sedan chair and sedan chair she had ridden in before.

So that night, she proposed to Emperor Taihe that they should ride in a rickshaw except on important days such as sacrifices.

However, the rickshaw didn't sound very pleasant, so Concubine Jiang suggested, "Why don't you give this car a name, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Taihe also felt that the rickshaw sounded bad, so he said: "Since Yuan'er had this car built, why not ask him what he thinks."

Concubine Jiang smiled and did not refuse.

So after dawn, Emperor Taihe sent someone to invite Situ Yuan into the palace to ask his opinion.

Situ Yuan had been prepared for this, so he answered very straightforwardly: "Then let's call it a Taiping car."
