I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 862 Supervision
On New Year's Eve in the palace, due to strict rules, there are no palace people playing around, only the lanterns hanging all over the palace show the celebration.

In fact, the palace rules become more and more strict every festival, the palace people are not allowed to walk around, and the court ladies will not appear to laugh and play, and the palace's board is unambiguous.

Today, Yang Xi and his wife stayed in the palace to watch the new year. The adults played cards for a while, and it was time to set off fireworks.

Fireworks are set off in four directions of the capital. When the fireworks prepared by the imperial court are over, the people in the capital can set off fireworks by themselves.

This year's Spring Festival is the first Spring Festival when the capital is moved, and the capital at night is illuminated by fireworks. Yang Xixuan took the prince to stand for a long time before returning to the palace to rest.

Yang Xi and his wife live in the Changchun Palace, which is a palace prepared for the princess. The queen has not yet given birth to a daughter, so Yang Xi also agrees to the rules when he lives in it.

Yang Xi lay on the heated kang without feeling sleepy, "This palace is quieter than the Duke's Mansion."

The dormitory is spacious, and speaking loudly will make it appear empty. There are palace guards standing outside, but it is difficult to hear the sound of walking even if you listen attentively.

The palace maid never wears loud accessories, and even her steps are at a well-trained distance. Every time Yang Xi enters the palace, she feels the strict rules of the palace.

Zhou Yu tucked in the quilt for his wife, "It's more comfortable to stay at home."

He looked at the rules of the palace and would unconsciously recall the rules. Fortunately, he only needed to stay for one night.

Yang Xi asked in a low voice, "I see you chatted with Xixuan for a long time, and you could feel that Xixuan was not that happy when you were eating. What did you say?"

Zhou Yu talked about the Southern Chamber of Commerce, "The Chamber of Commerce maximizes its benefits while also integrating local resources, which is both good and bad for the local economy."

Yang Xi immediately thought of the common people, "The common people who rely on porters and other odd jobs for a living will be completely deprived of their little right to speak."

Once the chamber of commerce sets the labor price uniformly, even if the price is low, the common people can only accept their fate, because manpower is the cheapest.

Zhou Yu drank a lot of wine at night and his mouth was a little thirsty. He got up and poured himself a glass of water, and asked his wife if he would drink. After the couple drank the water, Zhou Yu continued: "Xixuan's idea is for the government to protect the people. It's just an idea right now."

Yang Xi's eyes lit up, "Are you sure you didn't remind Xixuan?"

"No, Xixuan's own idea."

The imperial court will protect the people from being oppressed, and will also set up departments to supervise the Chamber of Commerce and so on.

Yang Xi soon felt drowsy, and fell asleep in the warm quilt after a while, but Zhou Yu lay down for a while before entering the fragrance of dreams.

The rules in the palace are strict, which means getting up on time, Yang Xi looked a little bad after sleeping late, and used some powder to boost his energy.

Yang Xi put on the jewelry and turned around in front of the mirror, and finally came to the conclusion, "This old man is not as energetic as he is young, even if he puts on rouge, he can still see his lack of energy."

Zhou Yu has already grown a beard, and he has severe wrinkles around his eyes, "Ziheng work harder, next year we will be able to grow a generation."

Yang Xi's maintenance is not bad, but as he gets older, his metabolism slows down, and once he feels uncomfortable, he needs to take care of him for a long time.

When the two of them saw Yang Xixuan, the breakfast had already been served, and they simply ate the breakfast. After the children celebrated the new year, Yang Xi and his wife returned to the Duke's mansion, and Ziheng and the others stayed in the palace.

The children stay in the palace, the palace can still be more lively, Yang Xixuan is reluctant to let his nephew leave.

Yang Xi and his wife returned to the Dingguo Mansion to catch up on sleep. No one came to pay New Year's greetings today, and the couple enjoyed a quiet time.

In the Duke's Mansion, people's welfare is good at the moment, and at the end of the year, bonuses will be given to each person based on their performance for a year. If there is more, there will be half a year, and if there is less, there will be two months.

The servant Yang Xi bought in the south has already had a family and had children for many years. The New Year's Mansion will prepare New Year's gifts for the servants, mostly for rice and noodles.

Dingguo's mansion rarely buys people from outside, and now some are old people who have been there for many years, and some are given by the queen.

Now that she is back in the capital, Yang Xi will think of the old man of the Zhou family who was married as a dowry. She also sent someone to look for her, but unfortunately there has been no news for many years in troubled times.

The husband and wife are famous, and the servants of the Zhou family did not come to find them, which can only show that either the bad luck is too bad or they are unwilling to continue to be servants.

Dingguo Mansion is very lively during the New Year. The Wu and Ye families come to pay New Year's greetings. The Wu family is thriving. However, the Wu family's grandchildren also have more males than females, which makes the Wu family's female dolls precious.

The Ye family is not prosperous, but the Ye family has a family. Years ago, the Ye family gave gifts to Ye Shun's family.

During the New Year's Eve, Zhou Yu saw Ye Shun bring a young man to celebrate the New Year with him, "Is this the younger generation of your family?"

Ye Shun nodded, "This kid will take part in this year's Spring Festival, so I will pick him up and live at home, and I will bring it here for you to see today."

Zhou Yu's eyes are sharp. Few people can hide from his eyes now, but the young man's excited eyes are clear. He nodded in satisfaction, "Your eyes have always been good."

Ye Shun grinned, "I knew this kid was a good one. They fled to the South in troubled times. This kid has been studying at Southern Academy. I also let Qiming pass the school exam. Qiming said that if he has solid knowledge, he can participate in Chunwei."

Zhou Yu also asked a few questions about the school, and nodded with satisfaction.

Ye Shun listened with a smile all the time, his family is weak, the Ye family can't rely on the Duke's mansion all the time, it's better to train more descendants of the Ye family so that they can take care of each other in the future.

Today, many people came to the Duke's mansion to pay New Year's greetings. Han Chenhui did not return to the capital, and Shizi Han came to pay New Year's greetings in person. Even though he was still a young man, Shizi Han was already able to support the government's entertainment.

Yang Xi and his wife also went to Xie's house to pay New Year's greetings. Mr. Xie is Yang Xi's master, that is, Yang Xi's elder.

Mr. Xie was happy because Yang Xi and his wife came to the house. Although it was a pity that he could not marry the Zhou family, as long as Yang Xi lived, the Xie family would protect him more, which made the old man completely relieved.

Ziheng is going to get married this year, and he has been by his parents' side talking to Xie's elders.

Zilu played with the Xie family's children, although the Xie family's rules are strict, but the children of the family can also play, the literati play seriously, there are many special tricks, coloring paintings, etc. are small fun.

It's not common to have a lot of fun, of course, there is also the reason why the Xie family has a great career. Every time Zilu faces the Xie family's children, he has to be careful and careful.

However, today Zilu was cheated again, "Okay, Xie Xiaowu, you and Xie Xiaosi will cheat me together!"

The boys in the room all laughed, Xie Xiaowu was the second son of the third wife, Xie Xiaosi was the second son of the second wife, and the two thirteen or fourteen year olds handed over their hands, "Acceptance, acquiescence."

Zilu's flesh hurts, "I just finished the dye!"

This is not just a question of money, but also because Zilu spent a lot of time looking for it.

There are some ore dyes that have to be found!
Zilu felt that no matter how many red envelopes he got today, he would not be able to ease his pain, "I shouldn't be making fun of you when you come looking for me."

This twelfth lunar month has just finished playing, and now I have been cheated.

The eldest brother Xie and the second brother Xie are not here, they are past the age of playing with their younger brothers, today the third brother Xie takes the lead, and the third Xie is not as thick-skinned as his younger brothers, so he moved his mouth, "Why don't we wait for Zi Xing and Zi Sun to draw Good painting for you."

Zi Xing hurriedly said, "We will send it to the Duke's Mansion when we finish the painting."

On the contrary, Zilu felt embarrassed, and waved his hand, "Forget it, if you lose, you lose."

Fourth Xie hurriedly said, "Brother Zilu is grand."

Zilu had a terrible toothache, and Xie's fourth child was the best at digging holes.

Zilu's expression made everyone laugh, and the laughter of the teenagers in the room spread to the main courtyard not far away.

Mr. Xie said happily when he heard it: "There are many children in the family, so it is lively."

Zhou Yu was also a little envious when he heard that, Dingguo's mansion is too big, and there are too few masters, and the family seldom has such a lively time.
