Hearing Qian Jiujiu's words, Concubine Qing was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Qian Jiujiu and laughed: "You little girl, I only have one son, so of course you are my only daughter-in-law."
"Even if the emperor has other concubines in the future, none of them can surpass you. Mother must promise you this."
Qian Jiujiu suddenly became indifferent and looked at Concubine Qing: "Then the daughter-in-law has to thank mother."
Imperial Concubine Qing did not notice Qian Jiujiu's change of mood, but continued to talk to Qian Jiujiu: "Also, while you are here to pay your respects in the palace today, your mother has something to tell you."
"In two months, it will be the Queen Mother's birthday. You must prepare gifts early to make her happy. Especially Jiuer, you haven't met the Queen Mother yet."
"Mother, let me tell you about the Queen Mother today. The Queen Mother is from the Ren family, and she is from the same family as the current Queen. The Queen is her niece."
Qian Jiujiu was a little puzzled when she heard this. How come this family should be a relative of the emperor, but not as powerful as the family of the virtuous concubine? The Ren family should be the head of the civil officials.
"Mother, is the Ren family very powerful?"
Concubine Qing nodded: "Yes, the Ren family is very powerful, and it's all because of my mother's uselessness. She can't get the support of your powerful family, but the Ren family is the leader of the civil officials."
"But the influence among the people is not that great, because of the pressure from the Wang family, the first family. But don't underestimate it. The number of students in the Ren family is just a little less than that of the Wang family."
"But their strength should not be underestimated. The Liu family, the maiden family of Concubine Xian, has been a family of generals for generations, and the men in every generation have fought on the battlefield."
"But because of this, the people of the Liu family gradually began to have thoughts that they shouldn't have, because they were protecting the Great Zhou Kingdom, but someone else was the emperor, so they felt unbalanced."
"After several generations, this generation of Liu family can only wish to take over the Mu family's kingdom and replace them."
Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes and suddenly felt that the Mu family's rule over the country was really pitiful. The Ren family was their literary friend, and the Liu family was their military friend. Unfortunately, they didn't seem to be the ones at the center.
No wonder the emperor chose Mu Yexiao and even favored Mu Yexiao. This is probably because Mu Yexiao does not have any powerful foreign relatives behind him.
Thinking of this, Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao: I sympathize with you.
Mu Yexiao was immediately amused when he saw Qian Jiujiu's eyes. This girl was in big trouble, but she was still gloating here. He couldn't help but laugh.
"Jiu'er, do you think you can be any better than me? By the way, did I tell you that your stepmother, Madam Qian, is from the Wang family?"
"I'm afraid that the closure of the family temple will only last for two months. Two months later, the Wang family will come to the Great Zhou Kingdom to attend the Queen Mother's birthday and the annual banquet. By then, I'm afraid they will inevitably cause trouble for you."
Qian Jiujiu's eyes suddenly widened: "Wang family? The number one family? The Wang family with disciples all over the world, and one level higher than the Ren Mansion?"
No wonder, that's what's going on? Qian Jiujiu was puzzled. How could the daughter of a minister, Qian Shangshu, marry a prince
I'm afraid that the emperor let Qian Yuge marry Mu Yexiao because he had his eyes on the Wang family behind Qian Yuge. No matter what, Qian Yuge is the niece of the Wang family.
Moreover, the Wang family only teaches students and does not want to enter the official career, but because of this, no one dares to look down on the Wang family. It is surprising to think that such a family is actually their enemy.
I couldn't help but feel like I was struck by lightning. I glared at Mu Yexiao and the tears in my heart couldn't stop flowing.
Qian Jiujiu sighed and said, "My Lord, please divorce me."
The corner of Mu Yexiao's mouth twitched: "Jiu'er, don't think about this beautiful thing. Just stay by my side. It's just a Wang family. I will protect you."
Qian Jiujiu curled her lips and said, "A mere Wang family? If you say that, I'm afraid that the effect of the head of the Wang family speaking and Master Zhiyin's words will be almost the same."
"And the most annoying thing about these intellectuals is that they just say, 'No, I need to find a protective umbrella for myself as soon as possible.'"
After taking a look at Mu Yexiao, Qian Jiujiu suddenly thought of something and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Your Majesty, after we go back, I have something I want to discuss with you."
When Concubine Qing heard this, she was stunned for a moment: "Since you have something to do, go back first and discuss it properly. And Jiuer, don't mention whether to have a divorce or not in the future."
"If Xiao'er dares to divorce you, Mother will break his legs."
Mu Yexiao looked at his legs and said, "Mother, you are so cruel. You actually want to break my legs again."
When Concubine Qing heard this, she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say. Her son's legs were already broken. No, did he have to break them again? In other words, her son's legs were healed now.
Looking at Mu Yexiao excitedly: "Xiao'er, you..."
"Mother, I have nothing to say. I am leaving now."
Mu Yexiao quickly gave Qian Jiujiu a look, and Qian Jiujiu immediately said goodbye to Concubine Qing: "Mother, your daughter-in-law will take her leave."
Then he pushed Mu Yexiao away. Concubine Qing looked at the two of them and was suddenly speechless. If she wasn't allowed to know, she would just pretend not to know. But it didn't affect her good mood anyway.
After returning to the palace, Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu and asked, "Jiu'er, do you have anything to say to your husband?"
Qian Jiujiu coughed twice and said, "Mu Yexiao, let me ask you, if I have done something great, can I suppress the Wang family for a short period of time?"
"No matter what, I absolutely cannot admit defeat in front of the Wang family this time."
Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes: "So Jiuer has already thought of a countermeasure? I wonder what it is?"
Qian Jiujiu curled her lips and said, "I don't believe you didn't realize that Arabic numerals, I want to spread out Arabic numerals in a short period of time so that people can learn them."
"And I'm shamelessly taking this opportunity. This number was invented by me, the princess. Do you think this is okay?"
Mu Yexiao nodded: "It is convenient to use, but it's not enough."
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes at Mu Yexiao and said, "Of course that's not enough. There's also the multiplication table and the division table..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Mu Yexiao looking at him strangely. Qian Jiujiu was depressed: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Mu Yexiao coughed twice and rolled his eyes: "I am just very surprised. Jiuer is really thick-skinned. She even named it after herself."
Uh! When Qian Jiujiu heard this, she immediately thought, this is a coincidence, okay, that is really called the multiplication table, not her name.
But no matter what, Mu Yexiao would definitely not believe it. Who is so unlucky? Why does her name have to be Jiujiu!
After coughing, Qian Jiujiu blinked uncomfortably: "Well, I'll show you what the multiplication table is, and then you'll know why it's called the multiplication table."
Then Qian Jiujiu rushed into the study and directly wrote out the multiplication table. However, no matter how she explained, Mu Yexiao looked at her with a half-smile.
This made people so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood, but when Mu Yexiao looked at the contents of the multiplication table seriously, he was shocked and looked at Qian Jiujiu.
"Jiu'er, you are really a genius. You got all these first. Is this really the case? No, I have to go to the palace immediately and find someone to experiment with it."
Seeing Mu Yexiao's excitement, Qian Jiujiu naturally knew what the shock brought by the multiplication table was, but she urgently needed it now.
Let the people all know her, so that the people of the Wang family, whether openly or secretly, who want to deal with her, will have some reservations, looking at Mu Yexiao.
"That's great. You can find someone to verify it. I'll write something. Then we'll go to the palace to find our father and ask him to promote this matter."
Mu Yexiao was naturally very happy to hear Qian Jiujiu's words. He turned around and went to find Dong Chen. He also found at least twenty famous accountants who would never make mistakes in calculations from the shops under his name in the whole Kyoto and asked them to come to the palace.
Then, as for Arabic numerals and the multiplication table, Mu Yexiao understood them all at once because he had the foundation of the previous teaching of the thousand-nine-nine. After the accountant came.
He began to use the multiplication table to calculate the accounts, and then compared them with those of the accountants, and found that the results of the multiplication table were all correct. The more Mu Yexiao calculated, the more frightened he became.
This gradual addition, subtraction, multiplication and division can actually make people throw away their abacus. Looking at these accountants, who are already sensitive to numbers, it is not difficult for them to learn this.
At this time, the accountants were also surprised. What was this thing? It could actually calculate the answer much faster than them, and it was not wrong. Are they going to be eliminated
Mu Yexiao looked at the account office inside and selected two people from it: "You two come out and stay here on standby. The rest of you go back. Don't reveal a single word of what happened today."
Everyone knew this was a big deal, and naturally they all knew to keep it a secret. They were just a little envious of the two people who stayed behind, after all, they were not stupid.
Everyone knew that the two people who stayed behind must have been chosen by the prince to learn this new arithmetic method.
Mu Yexiao looked at the two people who stayed behind, his face serious: "Do you know what I want to do by keeping you here?"
The two looked at each other, suppressed their excitement, and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Does the prince want to teach us new arithmetic methods?"
Mu Yexiao nodded: "It seems that you are not stupid, but it is true. I plan to teach you, and then you can teach other accountants."
"After you learn it, I will give you something important to do. I will teach you now."
The two of them were shocked and a little bit unbelievable: "Your Majesty, are you teaching me personally?"
Mu Yexiao snorted coldly: "These are Arabic numerals invented by the princess. If you don't let me teach you, do you still want the princess to teach you?"
