Chapter 515: Wechat tour
Even jointly signed a letter to Xiao Jin, requesting that the women's academy open up more students, which is only fair.
Morning up early, Xiao Jin nodded indifferently after listening to the admonisher's impassioned speech, "Well, what did Lord Wang say just now?"
Admonisher Lord Wang heard the words: "Back to the emperor, I think that since we are recruiting students, we should accept all kinds of people, instead of appointing some people to go and some people not to go, which is unfair."
Xiao Jin nodded thoughtfully and said, "Lord Wang just said it was fair."
"yes."
"Do you think it's fair to those people when they are bullied and have nowhere to complain?"
Lord Wang frowned and remained silent.
“Is it fair for your children to have nothing to eat when they are well-fed?”
"Your Majesty, it is the rich clothes and fine food, and that is what the ministers have worked hard to get, so why is it unfair?" An honest minister stood up and said bluntly.
Xiao Jin got up slowly, and glanced at the ministers in the palace, "Yes, there is nothing unfair, but how do you know that they didn't try their best to survive, and how can you be sure that your rich clothes and fine food have nothing to do with those people? You Do you farm? If you don’t, where does the rice in your mouth come from?”
"Life is doomed to be unfair. They have experienced more suffering, but what they get is still suffering. The queen just wants to give those who are crushed in the dust a chance to have a new life. In this way, you feel that you are unfair to yourself. ?”
"You are ministers, they are the people, and you are of equal weight to me. If you, as ministers, cannot think of the people, and want to rob them of their rare hope, then what use is it that I want you? "
Xiao Jin's voice was not loud, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of these ministers. They would stand up. In fact, from the bottom of their hearts, they still felt that those poor women were not worthy. They were not worthy of reading and learning. The things that come down are not worthy of the opportunity to stand at the same place as their children. They should go down to the dust to please them, that is their destiny.
All the ministers knelt down one after another, "My emperor is wise."
Xiao Jin was born in the royal family, and he is very aware of the problems of these official families and noble families. They are like roots under a big tree, and the relationship is intertwined. The establishment of the Women's College is only the beginning. We need more different ethnic groups to exist, instead of being held in the hands of a group of people.
Xiao Jin's words made the nobles of the aristocratic family completely afraid to say anything about this matter.
…
On the day when Asahi was off, Xiao Jin planned to take the child and Su Ying out of the palace to play.
"The emperor is going on tour in micro-service?"
"Well, there is no need to send too many people to follow."
Xiao Jin asked Zhang Shuming to prepare some inconspicuous robes for Su Ying and the others to change into. Su Ying took out tools and made some minor changes to their appearance.
She just messed with her eyes and nose, and when she looked in the mirror again, Xiao Jin found that her appearance was almost completely different from before.
"Aniang, why is the person in the mirror not Linger?"
Su Ying looked at Er Bao's small face, she just pulled the corners of her eyes down, lengthening the distance between her eyes, and her eyes seemed to lose their previous charm in an instant.
"Well, we made some disguises so that no one would recognize us."
The most eye-catching thing about Su Ying is her pair of phoenix eyes with upturned tails. As long as her eyes are well covered, there won't be any major problems.
"Okay, let's go."
Xiao Jin and the two treasures turned their heads to look at Su Ying. If her voice had not changed, they would not have recognized her.
Zhang Shuming prepared a carriage for them and left from the back door of the palace.
Several highly skilled imperial guards disguised themselves as entourages to follow.
Going out of the palace today, the family of four has no clear destination, just wandering around the city.
However, what they chose was not the busiest neighborhood they had walked through, but a street close to residential areas.
Compared with the bustling streets in the center, the blocks in the residential area are much smaller, and there are many streets where a carriage can take a lot of effort to walk through.
"Get out of the car, let's take a good walk."
Xiao Jin signaled the imperial army to park the carriage on the side of the street.
"You are all waiting here, you don't have to follow." If there are too many people following in a residential area, it will attract a lot of attention, how can they play?
"Master, why don't you let the younger ones follow?" The guards were worried.
Su Ying felt that two people needed to carry things, so she ordered them to follow.
"Let's go, see what's delicious and fun ahead."
Xiao Jin held the hands of the two children, and Su Ying walked beside them.
I don’t know if it’s a solar term today. Although it’s still early, there are already many people on the street.
There are more vendors selling on the street than before.
"Hand-made cakes, freshly baked hand-made cakes, all the old ladies and gentlemen who pass by come over to taste it."
In order to eat and drink out of the palace, Su Ying specially ate less in the morning, but now she heard the shouting and was attracted to her.
On the side of the street, two middle-aged men were pounding glutinous rice in a stone plate in their hands, and a delicate girl beside him was turning over the rice cakes that had gradually formed inside.
Su Ying salivated crazily when she saw Bai Shengsheng's rice cake.
"How long will it last?"
The little girl raised her head with a smile and said: "This beautiful sister wait a moment, it will be ready in less than half a quarter of an hour."
"Okay, then I'll wait."
It didn't take half a quarter of an hour, and a large piece of rice cake was ready when the little girl turned it over with skillful hands.
"As much as my sister wants, here is a piece of ten coins."
"Then give me a taste."
"okay."
The little girl dug a piece of rice cake with a wooden shovel before putting it into the soybean flour. The beaten glutinous rice became less sticky under the wrapping of the soybean flour, and was cut into small pieces the size of a thumb by the little girl during rolling. Packed in oil paper.
"Sister took it."
Su Ying took the rice cake and smelled it, and could still smell the pure fragrance of glutinous rice. She pierced a piece with a bamboo stick and ate it into her mouth. The aroma of soybeans was mixed with the sweetness of sugar, and the glutinous rice was delicious.
"Aniang, Ling'er wants to try it too."
Su Ying smiled and turned around to feed them each.
"It's sticky to the teeth." Er Bao said he didn't like it very much.
Dabao swallowed silently, his throat stuck a little.
"This child should be careful when eating. For your safety, I will help you eat it."
Su Ying looked at the little girl selling rice cakes who was about twelve or thirteen years old. The coarse cloth on her body had been washed and turned white, but it was very clean. Even the patches on it looked neat. This family is Lisuo people.
"The little sister has been selling rice cakes on the street with her parents?"
The little girl is talkative, and when Su Ying asked this question, she cheerfully replied: "Yes, sister, but it won't be sold tomorrow."
"Oh? Why?"
