Wen Jin didn't wait for Li Wang to confuse people's hearts again, then turned around and looked at him coldly, "How many benefits have you received from those people in private?"
"As a righteous person, you don't think about the interests of everyone! You only care about making money in your own pocket?! If you don't get the benefits, why did you bribe these gangsters to go and make trouble with the female steward in charge of the girls' school?"
Wen Jin looked at the aunt holding the broom and Mrs. Sun who was helping Li Xiaowu up.
She added, "Do you know that if a father collects ill-gotten gains and does bad things, it will bring harm to his children and grandchildren?"
Li Xiaowu pushed Sun's hand away, "Mom, I'm fine. I don't need help. I've never felt so good!"
People around him had watched Li Xiaowu grow up, so they naturally knew that this child was born with deficiencies. He often fell to the ground and twitched, and his appearance was very scary.
He really has never been so energetic since he was a child!
When Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Lin saw this, they looked at Li Wang differently.
Li Xiaowu knelt down towards Wen Jin and kowtowed, "Li Xiaowu kowtows to thank the fairy for saving his life."
When the people around him heard this title, they couldn't help but snicker.
Sun quickly tugged at him, "Princess, that's the princess!"
Li Xiaowu kowtowed again, "Li Xiaowu thanks the princess for her kindness!"
The broom in Li Wang's mother Lin's hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
She was stunned for a moment, then bent down to pick up the broom. She suddenly picked up the broom and patted Li Wang!
"I'll beat you up! What a great thing! Why don't you let me do it?"
"The princess saved Xiao Wu, she is our family's benefactor! If others stop her from doing it, we have to let her do it too! Are you still trying to stop me?"
"Tell me clearly! Is this poor kid Xiao Wu being implicated by your father?!"
Li Wang's mother was really beaten, and the big broom was used to hit his head and face. The surrounding villagers wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh.
"Yuan Lu, I leave it to you." Wen Jinchao nodded to Fengchun Banxia and others, turned around and walked back to the car.
Mrs. Sun pulled Li Xiaowu, chased her in front of her, and knelt down again.
Wen Jin raised his eyebrows and looked at them.
Mrs. Sun kowtowed three times, "This child is the lifeblood of my family, and the princess is the savior of my family... I don't know how to repay you for your great kindness. Thank you very much, princess! Thank you very much, princess!"
Li Xiaowu glanced at her bewilderedly, but his mother held his head down and fell face down on the ground.
Li Xiaowu didn't know how powerful the prince was, but Sun could see clearly. He shot an arrow, and he was afraid that it would pierce Li Xiaowu's head.
Wen Jin said, "This disease needs to be treated slowly. You go to Dongshi Renji Hall and ask Dr. Liao to take a look. Dr. Liao will prescribe medicine for you."
Wen Jin pedaled away.
She had not gone far when the carriage suddenly stopped.
Xiao Yuchen came up immediately.
After that night, the relationship between the two seemed to have broken through a barrier.
Xiao Yuchen naturally sat next to her and pulled her hand into his arms to warm it.
In fact, Wen Jin was not afraid of the cold, it was just not as warm as his hands.
Xiao Yuchen said, "Do you know why Jingzhao Mansion is so late?"
Wen Jin was startled for a moment, someone who could influence the Jingzhao Mansion... Her beautiful face turned solemn, "Father has changed his mind? Is he not willing to build a girls' school again?"
This has always been her biggest worry.
Seeing Xiao Yuchen nod slowly, Wen Jin's heart suddenly sank, "Is it because of Qi Ren?"
Xiao Yuchen said, "Firstly, it's because of Qi Ren, and secondly... my father is getting older. He is different from when he was in his prime. He only seeks stability and change. He is afraid of turmoil, of making mistakes, and of leaving behind him Notoriety.”
Wen Jin narrowed her eyes. Although she came from a later generation, knowing this matter would be of great benefit to the entire social force.
But putting women on the same level as men and giving women more rights and freedoms...is different from the mainstream values of this society.
The person who dares to be the first to eat crabs must have extraordinary foresight and courage.
Obviously, the emperor was not a person with the courage and perseverance to promote reforms.
Even Wen Jin is not sure of victory... After all, in history, there are not a few good reforms that have failed.
But even if you know that you may fail, you still have to try without fear of life and death. That is progress.
Wen Jin lowered her eyes... She couldn't help but think of the invitation given to her by the Song envoy...
"Jin'er..." Xiao Yuchen suddenly held her hand tightly, "I will always stand by your side."
He looked into her eyes, and his soft words were like a promise.
Wen Jin also looked at him, "Even if... you go against everyone?"
Everyone...including his father, of course.
Xiao Yuchen nodded slowly, "Yes, even if he goes against everyone."
Wen Jin smiled.
She is not a soft girl, and her two lives have taught her to rely on herself in everything.
But at this moment, Xiao Yuchen's words and his attitude made Wen Jin's heart warm... She leaned forward, threw herself into his arms, and hugged him.
Xiao Yuchen's heart was pounding... After that night, he still had a vague and unreal feeling.
At this moment, holding her in his arms...his heart was suddenly filled with something called "happiness".
After Wen Jin rescued people in public and explained the situation of land acquisition.
After urging local villagers to move out and measuring the land for planning, things went much smoother.
Although the emperor regretted it now and no longer wanted to support women's education, he had promised Wen Jin at the beginning. It is difficult for the king of a country to break his promise.
Xiao Yuchen still handed over the ruffian to Jingzhao Mansion, but Jingzhao Mansion was passive and slow in the matter.
Wen Jin didn't push her. After all, her goal was to educate girls, and the security of Kyoto was not under her control.
The villagers moved away, and some were arranged to work in Zhuangzi as long-term workers.
But Wen Jin and Xiao Yuchen's Zhuangzi couldn't accommodate so many people.
Fortunately, some of Xiao Yuchen's soldiers were brought back from the battlefield.
Because of his injury, he did not continue to serve in the army, but stayed in Prince Huai's Mansion. They were very good at setting up camps.
They built rows of barracks at locations that would not interfere with the planning and construction of the girls' school. The barracks were even larger and brighter than the houses where some villagers originally lived.
Since then, the villagers have had no complaints.
After the Lantern Festival, Wen Jin went to the palace to take Yu'er back to his house.
She learned that the emperor was dissatisfied with her efforts to establish a school for girls, so she tried her best to hide her talents and bide her time, staying at home to make medicine, take care of accounts, study with her son, and raise a cat.
After the first lunar month, the weather becomes warmer.
The palace guards and young maids all took off their thick coats and put on spring clothes.
The two "big cats" have also grown up a lot, and are as big as half-grown dogs.
They are not very clingy, except for Wen Jin.
They like to stay around Wen Jin.
Wen Jin was reading medical books on the couch, and the two of them cuddled next to her.
Meow Meow also rested its big furry head on Wen Jin's lap, feeling comfortable and carefree.
"Princess..." Banxia hurried in.
Meowth immediately glared at her.
Banxia held her breath and waited for Meow Meow to close its majestic tiger eyes, gazing at the common people.
Banxiacai whispered, "The construction in the south of the city has been started for more than half a month, and the progress has been relatively smooth... except for the problem of drinking water."
Wen Jin raised his head and saw Banxia hesitated to speak.
Banxia is not as good at talking as Fengchun, but she is even more anxious now.
Wen Jin said, "What's the problem with drinking water? It doesn't hurt to just tell me."
Banxia said, "Drinking water was bitter at first, but it didn't show up when cooking. Only when the workers were thirsty, they drank from cows. They complained that the water was bitter. In spring, I went to the medicine shop to buy bamboo leaf tea, which clears fire and reduces dryness."
"After a few days of peace and quiet, cooking became bitter, and the bamboo leaf tea gradually couldn't cover up the smell. In the past two days, the workers became too lazy to do their work. At first, the work that could be done in half a day now takes two days. It’s not over yet.”
"But the foreman said that we didn't have the strength. In Fengchun, I went to see the doctor from Renjitang, but the doctor didn't find anything wrong."
Wen Jin lowered his eyes and thought for a moment...
