Knowing that there was Yan Rusong's current wife among his students, Wei Yunqing's mood was really not very good. If someone could replace her as the teacher, she would definitely not go to the academy again, but now that she was the only one, she had to go even if she didn't want to.

However, on the second day, Wei Yunqing found that her worries yesterday were superfluous - Jin Furui didn't come, she asked people to come and tell Mama Li that she couldn't come in the future if there was something at home.

Wei Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief, she naturally felt relaxed without seeing each other every day. However, after the relaxation, she felt a little sorry in her heart. If the golden hibiscus wasn't a drama yesterday, then the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl seemed to like her quite a lot, but she treated her like that, and I don't know if she could be relieved...... Reason and emotion often can't be both, she has complicated thoughts about Jin Furui, if she continues to get along, it will inevitably make some mistakes, but it is unfair to the other party, it is better not to see it like this.

After the edict that merchants could buy knighthoods under certain conditions was announced, it really caused a shock.

The so-called Shinong businessmen, businessmen have always had a low status, although they make a lot of money, but if their status is low, they are easy to be oppressed, and if the officials at the top are casually carded, they will have to spend a lot of money to settle the situation, and they will grovel to those officials, and they will be aggrieved if they have money. But now that this edict has come out, it is different, with the title, those officials with small ranks, seeing him still have to salute, this kind of good thing, how can the merchants not be excited? Even though the title was restricted, they didn't care, and instead began to count their money and past taxes to see if they could get one, even the lowest of them.

The Cabinet took into account the feelings of other title holders when setting up the titles that could be redeemed, and the titles that could be redeemed were limited to the Viscount and Barones, who were of the second and sixth ranks. The title of the Great Liang, the clan and the different surname are two systems, the former is mostly hereditary, the latter is mostly not hereditary, and in the title of different surname, there were originally only three levels and nine grades of the prince and uncle, and those who are not meritorious can not get it, but now there are two more levels, and the original title level has not been messed up, and it can also be separated from the original, so as not to displease the original recipient.

In order to limit the number of people who can buy a knighthood, the amount of silver purchased for each rank varies greatly. In addition to paying a certain amount of taxes, the last third-class baron needed 10,000 taels of silver to redeem it. As for the first-class viscount, in addition to the tax payment amount increased nearly a hundred times, the silver taels required for redemption also reached five million taels. At this time, the agricultural tax collected by Daliang was only a mere three million taels, which shows that the cabinet has worked hard to limit the number of knighthoods.

Within seven days of the promulgation of the edict, the Ministry of Households' special office in charge of this matter received more than 10 applications, not including those who were waiting and seeing. Under Wei Yunqing's struggle, Liu Huiniang's title is a third-class viscount, and she doesn't need to apply or have money. And among the more than ten applications, the vast majority of them were for the barony, after all, for those wealthy merchants, the silver was easy to get, but the taxes paid in the past were not easy to reach, so they had to buy the lowest first.

And one of the most attractive applications came from Wang Mian's in-laws, the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, He Shoucai, he was also very powerful, insisting that he had missed paying taxes in the past, and handed over rice, cloth and other things equivalent to 3.58 million taels of silver, and handed over 5 million taels of silver to buy a first-class viscount. When the people of the world were talking about the wealth of He Shoucai, all the officials of the household department walked as if they were floating-they had never seen so much silver neatly stacked in front of them in their lives, could they not be happy and crazy?

In the past few days, Jin Yan has been walking as if he is floating, laughing when he sees people, and when he sees Wei Yunqing, he is even more smiling, and he is much closer to her, as if he wants to be thrown under her wings - Wei Yunqing has always been cold, she doesn't want to see his daughter, and she doesn't want to see him even more!

However, Wei Yunqing did not forget to remind Jin Yan that he remembered to leave some money for her to open a academy. Jin Yan naturally agreed, as for what he would do when Wei Yunqing wanted to use the money, he said something else.

Now that she has money, Wei Yunqing's mind has changed a little, the matter of the women's academy must be done slowly, who told her that there is not enough teachers here? It's better to take it step by step, steadily, so as not to end up unruly.

The day of Liu Huiniang's departure was coming soon, and Wei Yunqing specially said to Yang Yi and asked him to go with her to see off Liu Huiniang and the soldiers who went to sea.

With the emperor and empress seeing them off in person, the morale of the soldiers was clearly boosted. Wei Yunqing privately told Liu Huiniang a few words, and then said to the handsome young general named Cai Zhi: "General Cai, Huiniang is my good sister, she is delicate, so I will trouble you to take more care of her along the way." ”

"As long as the last general is there, I won't let Miss Liu hurt a single hair!" Cai Zhi said loudly.

Liu Huiniang glanced at Cai Zhi, smiled, and then looked at Wei Yunqing, her eyes calm: "Niangniang doesn't need to worry, it won't be long before I will return safely." ”

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news!" Wei Yunqing said with a smile.

Yang Yi also said: "There are many dangers here, if you can complete the mission, it will be okay to become an official and become a knight." ”

"Yes, the last general will definitely live up to his mission!" Cai Zhi raised his voice and said that his expression was unique to the vitality of young people. If Yan Rusong hadn't recommended this person, Wei Yunqing would have doubts about him being so young, and wondered if he would be able to complete his mission without him.

Wei Yunqing and Yang Yi waited until they got on the ship and left the port before taking people back to the palace.

Yang Yi had excitement on his face: "Sister Yunqing, what kind of people do you say are there on the other side of the sea?" Can there be immortals? ”

"There are no immortals, there are probably whites, blacks......" Wei Yunqing replied casually.

Yang Yi said clearly: "Yes, the immortals are only in the sky. But the white man and the black man...... Is it true that someone looks as white as paper and as black as ink? ”

"Yes." Wei Yunqing came back to his senses, thought for a while and said, "This world is so big, we can't be frogs at the bottom of the well." ”

Yang Yi thought so: "That's right! I don't know when I'll be able to go overseas. ”

"There's always a chance in the future." Wei Yunqing said perfunctorily. As the emperor, it is unlikely that he will wander around, and the sea is too dangerous and unpredictable, and it is absolutely impossible for those ministers to let him out. As an emperor, you can have many, but you are also destined to lose many.

Yang Yi didn't hear how perfunctory Wei Yunqing's words were, he was elated, and he was already imagining the scenery overseas. He quietly glanced at Wei Yunqing, who seemed to be a little distracted, and added her in his imagination.

Wherever he went, he wanted to be with her.

On this day, Wei Yunqing was preparing for class, and Lu Cui suddenly ran over and said, "Niangniang, the person who won the bet in the end was Feng Tian!" ”

"Bet?" Wei Yunqing was still recalling the three laws of Newtonian mechanics, and replied a little absentmindedly when he heard this.

Lu Cui smiled: "Yes, it means that the emperor can go to court for a few days to make a bet!" ”

Wei Yunqing put down the brush, looked at Lu Cui and said curiously, "How many days did Feng Tian say?" ”

"A month!" Lu Cui said, "He won thirty-five taels!" ”

Wei Yunqing nodded, but he sighed in his heart, it turned out that it had been a month, and Yang Yi had been able to persist in the dynasty for so long, and he had not complained, it seemed that he would continue to persevere.

"It's amazing." She whispered.

Lucui thought that Wei Yunqing was talking about Feng Tian, nodded and continued: "Yes, yes, he is the only one who says a month, at that time, our big guys laughed at him, but I didn't expect him to win in the end!" ”

Wei Yunqing didn't clarify, and smiled: "Take another fifty taels from me to reward him." ”

"Yes, sis!" Lu Cui said, "Alas, I knew that the slave maid had also said it for a month, and this Feng Tian was also a fool and had a fool's luck." ”

"Don't you think he's wise and foolish?" Wei Yunqing said with a smile.

Lu Cui was stunned and replied, "That's right." ”

Wei Yunqing waved his hand: "Okay, you go quickly, I still have to prepare for class." ”

Lucui stuck out her tongue: "Yes, mother." Go on, slave and get out! ”

When Lu Cui left, the room was quiet again, but Wei Yunqing did not continue to prepare for class. She put down her pen, stood up and walked to the window, looking out.

Now it's spring, everything is recovering, and the sun outside the window is shining brightly, shining warmly on people.

Time flickered too quickly, and when she came back to her senses, Wei Yunqing found that Yang Yi had persisted for so long, which surprised her very much. However, in addition to being surprised, she was also relieved.

Sun Shoufu, did you see that? Emperor Daliang has begun to work hard, and you can rest in peace in the spirit of heaven.

I have to say that looking back on Yang Yi's performance in the past month, Wei Yunqing is quite satisfied. Yang Yi can't be called a genius, but if he really wants to be interested in something, he is not slow to learn, and after studying with Mao Yirong for a period of time, he has become decent in dealing with twists and turns. And the basic mathematics she taught him, he seems to understand it well, and he is currently at least at the level of a primary school student.

Probably, after so many things, Yang Yi really began to grow and mature. And after Yang Yi, the real ruler of the big beam, also began to meddle in the government, is it a good thing or a bad thing for her? Now Yang Yi's words to her can be regarded as 100 obedient, but what about the future? When he is twenty years old, twenty-five years old...... At that time he will really grow up and understand that his feelings for her are nothing more than temporary attachments, and he will regret his dead face at this time, and he will begin to limit her power......

That would almost happen sooner or later, but Wei Yunqing didn't want to think about it now. When Yang Yi really grows up and can support the entire beam, it may make sense for her to reason with him. At that time, if he doesn't want her to participate in the government again, then she will leave the palace.

She didn't need to worry about that distant thing for now, and now she just had to go on step by step.

On this day, Wei Yunqing was teaching Yang Yi the content of mathematics roughly equal to that of junior high school, and an attendant suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, Niangniang!" The criminal department caught a person who was eating an overlord meal in a restaurant and beating someone, and that person actually said that he was the brother of the queen's mother! ”

Yang Yi and Wei Yunqing were both stunned.

Wei Yunqing's expression was strange: "My ...... Brother? ”

Yang Yi said in a faint voice that only the two of them could hear: "Sister Yunqing, your brother...... Could it be that he is also an immortal? ”

Wei Yunqing glanced at him, and said to the waiter: "Hui Niangniang, that's what the man said." Now the Criminal Department doesn't know what to do, I want to ask what you mean! 166 Reading Network
