"Yu'er, why did you come back so early today?"
Zhou Yu looked at the sky outside.
"Is it early? I'll be back in an hour as usual."
"Oh, that's because Niangji was wrong."
"Mom, was it fun for you to go to the princess's mansion today?"
Mrs. Lian stayed for a moment and returned to her previous appearance.
"It's fun. I didn't expect that there are so many flowers planted in the eldest princess's mansion, and they haven't bloomed even at this time of year."
"Mom, if you like it, we can grow some in our house."
"Forget it, I have to find someone to take care of so many flowers and plants."
"Otherwise, we can plant flowers and plants in a small courtyard. It would be nice to go there and walk around when we have nothing to do. We don't have to plant the entire garden."
Hearing what her daughter said, Mrs. Lian did not refuse.
"That's a good suggestion. I'll let Butler You handle it."
"Okay, I'll listen to my mother."
When the Prince's Palace was the Fourth Prince's Palace, there were many precious flowers and plants planted in the palace. However, after more than ten years, some of those precious flowers and plants were removed, and some of them died because of poor management.
Nowadays, there are only ordinary varieties in the garden. You can buy a lot of them for a few pennies, but they are not worth seeing at all.
"Mom, why don't we have a banquet at our house? Our family has moved to Kyoto City for so long, and we don't even know many people in our house."
Holding a banquet was something Lian had never thought about.
"Just call the ladies and ladies from other houses, as well as those officials, to our house to gather together. In four days, I will have taught them all, and I will have time to hold a banquet."
"Okay, then just listen to Yu'er."
Since her daughter wants to hold a banquet, let's do it. She doesn't have to worry about it. She just needs to tell Butler You what she wants to do in the house, and Butler You will take care of it. She doesn't have to do it herself.
With the consent of her mother, Zhou Yu went to her eldest brother's yard after coming out of the main yard. Now the brother and sister have moved out of the main yard.
Zhou Yan lives in the front yard, and Zhou Yu lives in the backyard. The distance between the yards is a bit far. Zhou Yu is busy during this time, and her elder brother is also busy, so the family only sees each other during meals. Not visible.
There is no good in having a house that is too big. It doesn’t even feel like a home.
When Zhou Yu came to Zhou Yan's yard, Zhou Yan was looking at the account books.
Now his business is getting bigger and bigger. The two stewards who went to Jiangnan to transport grain have returned, and a grain store has been opened in Kyoto City.
After hearing Su Tang say that his sister was here, Zhou Yan put down what he was doing.
"Yu'er, why are you free to come here today?"
"Didn't Mom go to the eldest princess's mansion to attend a flower-viewing party today? I called Xing'er over and asked about it. Mom suffered a lot from going there today, so I planned to hold a banquet to vent her anger."
Zhou Yan doesn't think there's anything wrong with Zhou Yu's idea. If he doesn't protect his own family, why would he want others to protect him? Zhou Yan has always been a protective character. At this point, the two brothers and sisters Quite similar.
"Listen to you, I will tell Butler You to prepare well. You will teach your students well in the past few days. I remember that you will finish teaching in a few days. Prepare here at home first. After you finish teaching, see the Emperor. Do you have any other instructions? If not, our family will hold a banquet."
"become."
The brother and sister discussed the banquet for a while, and then Zhou Yu got up and returned to his yard.
Seeing Zhou Yu coming back, Ye'er eagerly approached him.
"Girl, you are finally back. You don't know how boring the slave is in the yard. Can you take the slave with you next time you go out?"
"In a few days, I will take you with me when I go out. It's not fun to go to Sifang Academy these days. You can't go in when I go in to teach. You can only wait in the concierge. It's better to be in the courtyard. Do some work here."
Hearing what the girl said, Xing'er didn't say anything more. Thinking that the girl would be able to take her with her when she went out in a few days, her mood suddenly improved a lot.
When choosing maids before, Zhou Yu picked six maids, but when the arrangements were made, Zhou Yu felt that six maids were too many, so now there are only three maids in her yard, the eldest maid is Ye'er, and the other two younger ones. The maid is responsible for sweeping, and the remaining three have been transferred elsewhere.
The brother and sister in the county prince's palace were secretly trying to cause trouble, and the court was not at peace either.
Seeing that Zhou Yu was able to control that group of dandies tightly, some ministers couldn't sit still. They originally wanted to see Zhou Yu's jokes at first.
There were more than half of the plans to impeach Zhou Yu these days, but the emperor suppressed them and did not express his position. He was waiting for Zhou Yu to teach these people out so that he could slap these old-fashioned people in the face.
Although there were many leaks in Zhou Yu's impeachment, the emperor did a good job in implementing Zhou Yu's accusations regarding the control of horse-drawn carriages in Kyoto City and directly handed the matter over to the governor of Kyoto.
Lord Jiang complained bitterly about getting this hard job, and he also agreed with the emperor's method. From now on, there will be fewer carriages in the city, and their Kyoto government affairs will also be reduced a lot.
But the problem is that there are many objections from the courtiers. When he takes over the matter, the ministers in the court think that his nose is not a nose, and his eyes are not eyes.
But the emperor left this matter in his hands. If he didn't do it, the emperor wouldn't be able to explain it to him.
In the end, Mr. Jiang had no choice but to grit his teeth and do as the emperor said. He built a simple pavilion at each intersection and placed a person inside. Then the government office vigorously promoted the principle of walking on the left, stopping on red and walking on green.
At the beginning, the people in Kyoto City were not used to it, and they scolded Zhou Yu who came up with this idea eighteen hundred times.
There are not many people who are not used to obeying the rules naturally. Later, Mr. Jiang came up with a plan and directly arranged yamen with boarding boards at the intersection. If anyone did not follow the rules, he would directly bring them five big boarding boards. After being fined several times, these people Be honest.
But Mr. Jiang was troubled again. Ordinary people could restrain themselves, but those high-ranking families thought they were superior and did not follow the rules at all. Anyway, as long as they come over, it doesn't matter if it's a red card or a green card.
In the end, Mr. Jiang had no choice but to catch the horseman driving the carriage and the guards around him and beat them every time a carriage did not follow the rules.
The female members of the official family are very honorable. Although it didn't hit the master, it was a slap in the face.
This method was ordered by the emperor to be implemented, and they could not scold the emperor. In the end, they had to comply in order not to lose face.
Half a month has passed since Mr. Lin, and the streets of Kyoto have changed a lot, and carriages will not be blocked at every turn.
The wooden horses made by the county prince's palace were originally one for each minister, but later when more were made, one for each official in each yamen.
The happiest thing among them is that the yamen patrolling the streets no longer have to walk on their legs.
