    Chapter 102

    Prince: ... that's outrageous!

    "There is no precedent for a female official in my dynasty."

    Not only did it not exist in the Great Qi Dynasty, it never existed in the past!

    My cousin has been different from others since he was a child, but how did he come up with such an outrageous thing?

    Does he know that this is tantamount to challenging the existing official system? It's like going against all the officials, those old-fashioned ones will scold him to death.

    The emperor shook his head slightly, "Send someone to check first. You can use this blueprint for experiments. There is already a drought in some places, so make a waterwheel as soon as possible."

    Said to check first, but he was inclined to believe it.

    For this kind of technology, there is a debate between true and false. It cannot be true or false.

    The prince responded and hesitated for a while, "But, some rivers have dried up, where can I get water?"

    The Wei River is different. It is a main channel, which has not dried up for hundreds of years. At most, the water level has dropped to the bottom of the river.

    That is, it just passed through Xiliang without introducing it.

    The emperor got a lot of information from the letter, and thus got inspiration, "The idea of ​​introducing the channel into the water, the idea of ​​​​this channel with a waterwheel can be used for reference. It was not possible in the past, but now there is cement, and the feasibility is very high."

    Speaking of cement, can't help but think of Mu Wanqing.

    Cement is really a magical thing. It can be used everywhere, not only for building walls, building houses, roads, and embankments. It is very useful.

    Sturdy, functional, and inexpensive.

    He pondered, "If the cement was obtained by chance, she was lucky. Now that the waterwheel is born again, it is not just luck."

    He had never met Mu Wanqing, but the talent she showed was eye-catching.

    What said before is very good at doing business and good cooking skills, all of which are trails, not worth mentioning.

    Now is the avenue, and it has really entered his eyes.

    The prince was silent for a while, and sighed softly, "She is very talented in checking things. If she is a man, I can recommend her to the Ministry of Industry as a staff member and make the best use of it."

    The emperor shook his head slightly, this would not work, he was not alone in appointing and removing extraordinary officials, and the cabinet was not a decoration.

    "You write a letter to explain a few words to that kid, and teach him a little more. He is not too young, so let him understand that some things can't be done and some things can't be said."

    "Okay." The crown prince knew that the father was for Du Shaoxuan's good, "However, you must be rewarded for meritorious deeds in order to be convincing."

    The emperor gave him an angry look, who was convinced? In the end, it was for Du Shaoxuan to speak.

    "If it does, then... give her a farm and strive to make more achievements." He was looking forward to it.

    Prince:  …

    If Mu Wanqing was here, he would definitely say that the dog emperor is not an ordinary dog.

    The father and son have already discussed it. Who knows, after more than ten days, Du Shaoxuan will present a piece of paper and a stone will set off a thousand waves.

    Up and down, Du Shaoxuan was scolding Du Shaoxuan for nonsense.

    He even scolded him for being lecherous and a simple-minded warrior.

    The emperor was very angry at first, even if this bastard wrote a letter, he actually made a memorial through official channels in a serious manner.

    However, the wind became stronger and the content became more and more unbearable, which attracted the attention of the emperor, and people checked it out. Good guy, several princes have all ended, and even the prince of Jin has secretly added to the flames.

    Well, it's all worrying stuff.

    He simply let the civil and military officials discuss in court, and the rare unified statement of the civil and military officials did not agree to set a precedent.

    Once you start, some things can't be controlled, and it is absolutely impossible for a woman to be an official.

    Merit can be rewarded to her father and brother, even if she makes her father and brother a sesame petty official.

    There are also people who oppose it. They feel that they were exiled criminals before, and even if they are pardoned, their resumes are not clear.

    After discussion and discussion, there was no result, but Mu Wanqing's name was spread, and it was spread all over the streets.

    Jin Palace, Jin Pavilion

    Mu Jinyao just woke up from a nap, sat lazily by the window and looked at herself in the mirror. She had snow skin like jade, apricot cheeks and phoenix eyes, charming to the bone, and she was dressed in silk and satin.

    Mrs. Mu picked up a comb to comb her daughter's hair, and looked at her beautiful daughter with joy in her heart.

    She knew that her daughter would not let her down.

    Born to be rich and honorable, to enjoy happiness.

    No, in just a few months, Mu Jinyao has become the most favored woman of the Prince of Jin, and won his favor, even the main room has to give her three points.

    As her family, chickens and dogs ascend to the sky, and Mrs. Mu also enjoys happiness as a close friend. She eats and drinks spicy food, and her childhood is very nourishing.

    The only disappointment is that Mu Jinyao is not pregnant yet.

    "Yao'er, I asked your brother to find the secret recipe for birth, and I will fry it myself later. You drink a bowl and say that it will take a month to drink."

    Mu Jinyao frowned slightly, "Mother, I'm still young, what's the hurry?"

    Can you be in a hurry? It's not easy to live a good life again, and no one wants to lose it.

    Madam Mu persuaded earnestly, "Isra's servants won't last long, and only children can guarantee you the rest of your life. With a son, you truly have a foothold in the Jin Palace. Listening to your mother's advice, is your mother? will hurt you."

    Mu Jinyao felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she understood the truth, but... "I am too popular, if I have another child, I will not be able to keep it, this is the time to develop a relationship with the prince, mother, I have success in my heart. Calculate."

    Looking at her daughter with a determined look, Mrs. Mu opened her mouth and swallowed her words.

    When the child is older, she has her own ideas. That's all, she is also a smart one. Step by step, it all depends on her scheming and means.

    "Aunt Mu, Concubine Shi wants to see you." Someone reported outside.

    Mu Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then stood up quickly, changed into a plain old clothes, and removed most of the pearls from her head, "Let's go."

    When she entered the main courtyard, she found that it was full of people, and all the women of the prince were present. What was this going to do?

    She concealed the doubts in her heart, and respectfully bowed to the imperial concubine, daring not to be slighted.

    She is a smart person, and she has done enough superficial articles, so that people can't fault it.

    Concubine Shizi has a decent appearance, she is the only daughter of a great scholar, and she is full of bookish air.

    She didn't wake up, as if she had forgotten, "I called you here to ask you something."

    Mu Jinyao just knelt down and replied without any complaints, "Concubine Shizi, please speak, concubine knows everything, and there is nothing to say."

    Her attitude is very respectful, even if the princess does not like her, she can't make it difficult for her.

    "Mister Mu, who is Mu Wanqing from you?"

    Mu Jinyao never expected it to be this, and when she heard Mu Wanqing's name, it seemed like a lifetime away, "Ah? She...she is my cousin, the child of my second uncle's family."

    Only then did she realize that everyone looked at her strangely, like envy and jealousy.

    Concubine Shizi raised her eyebrows, "What kind of person is she?"

    Mu Jinyao's feelings for his cousin are very complicated. It stands to reason that he died a long time ago, but he survived strong and rewrote his own destiny step by step.

    She single-handedly led the family out of the predicament, and this ability makes people have to be convinced.

    In the previous life, the Mu family fell into the quagmire and could not get out of it. There were countless casualties, but in this life, they all lived well. This is all due to Mu Wanqing.

    "Smart, independent, talented, proud girl."

    Concubine Shizi was a little stunned, and it was very good to give such a high evaluation in the mouth of the same sex. "What's her relationship with Du Yuze?"

    "Who?" Mu Jinyao suspected that something was wrong with his ears.

    Concubine Shizi thought she didn't know her, and said it again, "Xiliang Du Jiajun's young commander, Du Yuze."

    There was a huge wave in Mu Jinyao's heart. She knew the name. In her previous life, the Northern Iron Cavalry invaded. Du Yuze led a hundred thousand Du family troops to defend Xiliang. .

    What is even more tragic is that after death, he was slandered and communicated with foreign countries. He not only had to whip the corpse, but also dug up the ancestral graves of the loyal and loyal Du clan. The soldiers and people of Xiliang were extremely grieved and declared an uprising in open confrontation with the court.

    This is the beginning of chaos...

    "I don't know, my cousin... I probably don't know him, but I don't know much about her current situation."

    Seeing that she didn't seem to be pretending, Concubine Shizi's thoughts flew, "Du Yuze wrote a memorial to ask for Mu Wanqing's credit, and also wanted her to become an official in the court. It is said that she created the Mu's waterwheel, then What is it?"

    Mu Jinyao's head was cluttered, waterwheel? what is that? Enter the dynasty as an official? "Are you sure you're right? My cousin is a woman."

    A voice sounded, "Yes, Mu Yuze is really dizzy. He dares to say such a thing. It seems that he is really spoiled by the emperor."

    It was the Prince of Jin, he strode in, and the women in the backyard were both surprised and delighted, and they rushed forward one by one.

    Yingying Yanyan, soft and soft, a group of prosperous and splendid.

    Mu Jinyao was more reserved, and after greeting, he let the princess play.

    Concubine Shizi saw her wink so much, she was a little pleasing to the eye, she was still the most sensible, unlike these lowly concubines, who stuck to Shizi one by one.

    The Prince of Jin thought that they were too noisy, so he waved away the concubines, sat down on the right seat, took the fragrant tea from the concubine, and his eyes fell on the beautiful figure.

    "Yao'er, you write a letter to Mu Wanqing and invite her to live in the capital. This is the root of the Mu clan. The ancestral grave is here. As the patriarch, she should come back to worship her ancestors."

    He was very satisfied with the intelligence of the concubine. Not only could he add fragrance to his sleeves, but he could also help solve problems, so he was particularly spoiled.

    However, she suddenly discovered that she was still far behind Mu Wanqing.

    Still have to find a way to gather Mu Wanqing.

    Mu Jinyao's heart suddenly burst, "She... won't listen to me."

    The Prince of Jin was a little displeased. He was usually so alert, how did he become stupid now? "Then she doesn't respect her ancestors, so isn't she afraid of what Wanfu says?"

    Mu Jinyao couldn't tell what it was like, the ups and downs came to her mind, she resisted the sourness and asked boldly, "Do you think she will be afraid?"

    Mu Wanqing is a person who is not afraid of gods and Buddhas, and ignores honor and inferiority.

    She can exchange old lady Mu and Mu Zhongde's room for money, and she can also go head-to-head with the noble prince of Jin.

    What kind of ancestors does she have in her eyes?

    The Prince of Jin was silent, that girl is indeed a person without taboos, but people always have weaknesses.

    It was hard to suppress his thoughts together, "Yao'er, cement and waterwheels are the ancestral things of your Mu family."

    Mu Jinyao shook his head, "I haven't heard of it."

    If there is any treasure, it must be in her grandmother's hands, and Mu Wanqing will not be able to get it.

    An inexplicable melancholy rose in her heart, her cousin was so powerful, she was too weak.

    However, there is a faint hint of pride, this is also the daughter of the Mu family.

    The Prince of Jin hinted, "It's your family's stuff. It stands to reason that the ancestral things should be passed on to the eldest son. You are the rightful heir."

    A trace of confusion flashed in Mu Jinyao's eyes, is this trying to take the credit from Mu Wanqing? He... This person is indeed a hero of the world, and in addition to interests, there is desire.

    "Yes, you're right, but, you forgot... I'm dead."

    There is no way for her to appear in front of everyone openly and aboveboard, because she is an exile who can't see the light, or an exile who escapes.

    Prince Jin's face turned green, why did he forget about it? The Mu family was granted amnesty, but not the Mu family's big room. "

    "The amnesty order should be what Mu Wanqing meant. She doesn't care about family affection at all, but it doesn't matter, I'll teach her how to behave."

    Mu Jinyao's expression changed, "Sir, Wanqing is just an ignorant little girl, why do you care about her? She can do anything when she is crazy."

    The Prince of Jin thought of the dark loss he suffered, and snorted coldly, "I didn't take her as an opponent before, this time I will use a little more force to let her know clearly, those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!"
