On the day of Yun Qing's departure, the weather was very good. As always, Yuxi stood at the gate of the palace and watched Yun Qing's back slowly disappear into her sight.
Brother You said with a smile: "Mother, if I can't bear it, don't agree to let Dad go." There are so many generals who can fight in Chaozhong, and his dad can't get in unless he goes to Donghu.
"Even if I stop, I can't stop it." After speaking, Yuxi smiled lightly: "However, this is the last time."
"The last time, I don't know how many times I have listened to the last time." Anyway, as long as Dad makes up his mind, my mother can't help it.
Qi Hao glared at Brother You, and Brother You immediately closed his mouth.
As soon as Yuxi entered the Palace of Qianqing, he saw a mountain of folds piled up on the books in the Imperial Study Room.
Half of these discounts are for money. After previewing all the zigzags with Qi Hao, Yuxi selected two zigzags and Shen Chunting said: "Let’s tighten these two places." These are related to the national economy and people's livelihood and have always been the focus of Yuxi's attention.
Shen Chunting's heart is that the Queen's Empress is very efficient, and it took only one day to finish reviewing the papers. Unlike the emperor, it usually takes three to five days for the papers that are not urgent to be reviewed.
After a busy day, Yuxi suffers from backaches. While soaking in the medicinal bath, Yuxi couldn't help but said: "Years are not forgiving! When the world is stable, let Brother Hao take the burden."
Tong Fang smiled and said, "I'm afraid that the empress will be bored by then." Yuxi's restless temperament, Tong Fang, who has been with her for more than ten years, doesn't know.
Having been busy for more than 20 years, it would be unaccustomed to rest all day without doing anything. However, she can do what she is interested in. Yuxi said: "When Qihao takes over the burden, I will be busy with the women's school. I hope that in the future, women will also have the opportunity to read and learn." It is unrealistic to let all the girls study, because many poor students want to learn and learn. Don't get up. The Women's Academy is a platform for those women who have the conditions and want to study.
Tong Fang smiled and said: "Now the school only enrolls a hundred people every year, and it is almost squeezed for one place."
Naturally, these Yuxi knew that to enter the women's school, not only had to be rich, but also had to be powerful. However, this situation will change after future expansion.
After giving Yuxi a massage, Tong Fang said softly: "Empress, my parents came to Beijing and said they want to see me. I want to see him in the palace tomorrow." Tong Fang's parents now live in Zhongyonghou's Mansion.
Tong Fang was heartbroken by his family back then, and has never returned home in these years. But because both parents are there, it is a filial piety to send some money back every year. Over the years, Tong Fang's brother-in-law and others wanted to ease the relationship with her, but it was a pity that Tong Fang ignored it. Tong Fang has been by Yuxi's side, she can't force it if she doesn't want to see others.
Yuxi, who had closed her eyes, opened her eyes when she heard this and said, "Do you know why your parents are here?" Tong Fang has been with him for more than ten years, but his parents have never appeared.
Tong Fang's parents also missed this daughter, but they were extremely ashamed of what happened back then. Therefore, Tong Fang did not take the initiative to go home, and they had no face to come to see Tong Fang.
Tong Fang nodded and said, "I came here for my nephew Tong Man. This child is a bit sporadic in his studies, and is now a scholar. This time, he is coming to the Imperial Capital to study." Tong Dad and Aunt Tong are for his grandson this time. I traveled all the way to the capital to see Tong Fang.
Even if he did too much back then, it was the father who gave birth to her and raised her. After all arrived in the capital, Tong Fang naturally had no reason to miss it.
Yuxi knew that something was going on, and if she really missed this daughter, she wouldn't stop visiting for more than ten years. What shame, but it's just an excuse. But these are Tong Fang’s housework, and Yuxi will not intervene: "Your parents will definitely say that Tong Man will give you the end of life. Just listen to these words." What is the end of the old age, but I want to take this Let Tong Fang pave the way for Tong Man.
Fearing that Tong Fang is worried about what will happen when he grows old, Yuxi said: "Don't worry, Qi Hao will provide you with old-age care. If you want, you will be buried by my side in a hundred years!" Like Tong Fang , Unless it is a great contribution to the family will be allowed to be buried in the ancestral grave. If the ancestral grave cannot be buried, it will be regarded as a lonely ghost when buried outside.
Tong Fang was stunned, and when he recovered, he knelt on the ground, and said excitedly: "Thank you, Empress Empress."
Being able to be buried in the imperial tomb is a matter of Guangzong and Yaozu, and generally only the heroes who have made great contributions to the past. Tong Fang is just a maid who takes care of Yuxi's daily life personally. How can she not be grateful to receive such preferential treatment as Yuxi.
"Thank you? You will still suffer from it in the future!" After saying this, Yuxi said, "Should you accept a female apprentice so that your skills will not be lost?"
Tong Fang looked hesitant.
"Why, don't you want to accept apprentices?" After speaking, Yuxi deliberately joked, "Is it afraid that the church apprentices will starve to death the master?"
Tong Fang shook his head and said: "Empress, I have an idea, I don't know if it should be said."
"You said."
Tong Fang said, "I want to open a school to train medical women. Do you think it is feasible?" There are many male doctors, but there are very few female doctors. Some women who had a woman's disease were ashamed to talk to the male doctor, but they were delayed. There are also large families who have strict rules saying that men and women are unclear about what they are taught, and that they do not allow male doctors to directly touch their skin and get a thread to diagnose the pulse. Doctors with this kind of ability are either known as world-renowned doctors or work in hospitals.
After speaking, Tong Fang quickly explained: "I just want to recruit a few female doctors to teach them, so I occasionally visit." It is her job to serve Yuxi, and she will not turn the cart before the horse.
"This suggestion you made is very good. I didn't expect it. After the war in Tongcheng is over, I will let someone do it..." The thing is not very proficient. It's not a trivial matter to run a women's medical school, she can't get it.
Tong Fang opened his eyes and smiled: "That couldn't be better."
"Just tell me what you think in the future, don't have to worry about it." She has limited energy and is not so thoughtful about many things. And this is not about government affairs, and courtiers help to supplement the incomplete places.
On the second day, Tong Fang went to see his parents.
Seeing Tong Fang, both Father Tong and Aunt Tong were very excited. Especially Aunt Tong, hugging Tong Fang and crying bitterly: "You kid, why are you so cruel, you haven't come back to see me and your father for so many years."
Tong Fang felt terribly uncomfortable.
Tong Shi smiled and explained to Tong Fang: "Tong Fang is too busy to get out of her body."
After sitting down, they talked about the old days. Tong Fang asked: "Father and mother, once you come to the capital, you will stay a little longer. I will send someone to take you around and take a look around."
Father Tong said hurriedly: "A Fang, A Man is diligent and motivated in his studies, and his husband also said that he is extremely talented. I think Yucheng Academy is not as good as the capital, so I want A Man to study here."
Aunt Tong took the words and said, "I heard that the best school in Beijing is the Tanyuan. You will send Aman there to study."
Tong Fang's face was suddenly unsightly. I thought Baitan Academy was a vegetable market, so I just entered it if I wanted to.
Holding back his anger, Tong Fang said: "If you want to enter Baitan Academy, you have to take an exam, and you can only enter if you pass the exam. If you don't pass the exam, I can't help it."
In fact, it's not that easy to just want to take the exam. If there is no fame, someone must guarantee it before it can be done. But this is not difficult for Tong Fang.
Father Tong said: "Just find someone." When Father Tong wanted to come, his daughter was the celebrity in front of the empress, it was easy.
Tong said with a smile: "Second Uncle, you must pass an exam if you want to study at Baitan Academy. Before the third prince went to Baitan Academy, he had to take an exam!"
Aunt Tong said with a confident face: "My family's Aman is so knowledgeable, she will definitely pass the exam." To her grandson, Aunt Tong has a mystery of self-confidence.
Tong Fang said immediately that he would help Tong Man get a place for the exam.
Father Tong didn't get too entangled in this matter either. Just like Aunt Tong, he believed that Tong Man would definitely pass the exam. I said that before, just in case.
After talking about enrollment, Father Tong wanted Tong Fang to solve another matter: "Aman is sixteen years old and he hasn't made a marriage yet. Afang, I will leave it to you." It is because the Tong family has a high-sighted view that they feel that the girls in Yucheng are not worthy of him.
To help find a school, Tong Fang is also willing to help this because of his nephew. However, Tong Fang was unwilling to intervene in marriage events. Tong Man has grandfather and grandmother at the top and parents at the bottom. No matter how important the marriage is, she won't be the aunt to take care of her.
Without waiting for Tong Fang to speak, Aunt Tong said again: "A Fang, A Man is your aunt's nephew. You must find a girl with both talents and good looks and good family background." Only such a woman can be worthy of. On her grandson of both talents and beauty.
Tong Fang laughed when she heard this: "Mother, I'm just a servant, how can I find such a girl for Ah Man with such great ability."
Aunt Tong said hurriedly: "Why don't you know that you are the person the Queen Empress relies on the most. A Fang, A Man is your prostitute's nephew, you can't leave it alone!" Because Tong Fang is working by Yuxi's side. The Tong family members are very mixed up in Tongcheng by virtue of this relationship.
If Tong Fang had a soft temper, he would not insist on reconciling with Xiang Weiguo despite the opposition of his family back then: "Mother, I won't care about this."
Father Tong said with a solemn face: "A Fang, A Man is your immediate nephew, how can you leave it alone?"
"Yeah! Afang, you have no children. When you are old in the future, you will not have to ask Aman to give you the end of the life. Afang, now help Aman. Only when he has a good future can you enjoy your old age." It is because of this. Thinking, Father Tong and Aunt Tong would make such an excessive request.
Tong Fang felt: "I said back then that it has nothing to do with you whether you are dead or alive. I will not bother you when I grow old."
After speaking, he turned around and went out. She didn't stop how Father Ren Tong and Aunt Tong shouted.
Tong Fang asked the maid to stay and comfort the two old people, but she chased them out.
