Chapter 497 Beloved Concubine (25)
âYour policy theory is well written, but there are still some things missing. You continue to think about this policy theory on learning and finish it. I will allow you to go home for a month. Ten days will be the spring festival every three years. You may as well ask more. Ask about it.â
âThe issue discussed in this policy discussion is: it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family. Wan Bai, as a girl raised by a scholarly family, you must go out. I hope to see something different in your policy theory. This matter, for the time being Confidential.â
Baitang picks things that they used to love to do, but now they have to do things because of their status as concubines and women.
Chen Wanbai held the three volumes of books and saluted: âThank you Your Majesty for your kindness, my concubine must be good at thinking.â
Baitang looked at Yu Youyi again: âYouyi, I remember that you were a child of a poor family before you entered the palace.â
Yu Youyi tightened her hand holding the silk handkerchief, not daring to look directly at the young emperor: âYour Majesty, my concubine is indeed a child of a poor family. My father failed the rural examination and returned home. My mother is a La Traviata in the village.â .â
Her birth was indeed not very good.
Baitang asked again: âHave you ever been able to read and write?â
Yu Youyi is now very grateful to Zhou Yunzheng for asking her to recognize and practice calligraphy, and quickly replied: âYour Majesty, thanks to sister Zhouâs blessing, this concubine has studied after entering the palace. I can read, but I canât write very well.â .â
Baitang turned his gaze: âKnowing how to read and write is good. Although Youyiâs father failed the rural examination, he should be able to find a good job in the village. His mother is also working outside. How did the family become poor?â
Yu Youyi hastily explained: âYour Majesty, to be honest, the concubineâs family became poor. It is because the concubineâs father liked to gamble, lost all his family property, and was broken by someone. The next year, there was a natural disaster, and the big Drought, there has not been a drop of rain for half a year. In order to provide food for the whole family, my father gave his concubine to Ren Yazi.â
Baitang patted her head: âItâs all over, Youyi should look forward. I remember that you have always been kind. Recently, some refugees came near the imperial capital. Although officials have been sent to arrange arrangements. I think, you Maybe itâs been a long time since I left the palace.â
âI will give you two tasks. Tomorrow, I will arrange twelve guards to protect you, and you will choose two smart and kind-hearted girls to accompany you. One is to serve porridge outside the imperial capital by the order of the emperor. You must ensure that there are two guards by your side, and donât let them stay away. Second, during this period, I hope you can talk to them more to understand where they came from, why they came here, why they came, and think about it. In the process of resettling refugees, what are the good and bad. Similarly, the second task is as long as you know it in your heart, and you donât need to make it public.â
Yu Youyi was certainly happy to be able to leave the palace.
Itâs just⦠Her Majestyâs words, she felt that she seemed to bear a very important responsibility.
Yu Youyi solemnly responded: âThe concubine will never disgrace her mission.â
Baitang looked at Lu Yanjing again: âMother Lu, I know that you are like the queen mother, you always like to burn incense and worship Buddha.â
Lu Yanjing was the oldest among them, basically ten years older than all of them.
Therefore, he is also the most calm one.
Before she entered the harem, she had been serving the queen mother. Accompanying the Queen Mother to burn incense and worship Buddha, I also fell in love with burning incense and worshiping Buddha.
Lu Yanjing was weak and submissive: âI am deeply honored to be able to pray for His Majesty and Dayan in front of the Buddha every day.â
Baitang: âThe Buddha Temple on Jingtai Mountain, thirty miles outside the imperial capital, is the most famous. Almost every month, people will come to the Buddha Temple to offer incense. Tomorrow, I will also assign you twelve guards.â
