The Ninth Princess knew that all Guan Xiaorou's thoughts were on Jin Feng, and was worried that her mood would fluctuate too much after knowing Jin Feng's situation, so she asked everyone to hide it from Guan Xiaorou.
Bei Qianxun actually knew Jin Feng's current situation, but the Ninth Princess had explained it and she was also worried about Guan Xiaorou, so she never said anything.
Now Guan Xiaorou asked her to ask Xiaoyu again, which made Bei Qianxun a little embarrassed.
However, Guan Xiaorou had just given birth, so Bei Qianxun did not tell her right away, but decided to discuss it with Xiaoyu later.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask Xiaoyu later."
Guan Xiaorou felt relieved now, reached out to take the child from Run Niang's arms, and held her in her arms lovingly.
…
In the yard a few hundred meters away, Tie Shixin, Xiaoyu and others gathered here.
Even Fang Lingjun, who was teaching in the academy, and Liu Buqun, who was soaking in the laboratory, were called over by Tie Shixin.
"Tell me, do you want to handle this matter?" Tie Shixin asked.
"Brother Feng has a child, of course we have to do something about it!" The old village chief was the first to express his stance: "Not only do we have to do something about it, but we also have to do something big and special to avoid bad luck!"
Jin Feng is the Dinghai Shenzhen of Sichuan and Sichuan. Although he is not here, he has a child, which is still the top priority in the village.
When ordinary people give birth to a child, they will give the villagers a red wotou if possible, let alone Jin Feng's child.
Although the ninth princess and Guan Xiaorou both gave birth to girls, which made the old village chief a little disappointed, in his opinion, it was still a great joy for the village.
"If so, what should be done?" Tie Shixin asked: "What specifications should be followed?"
Various rituals and laws in the feudal era had strict procedures and rules. Now that the Ninth Princess is the emperor, she should pay more attention to these.
But the old village chief is just a country man, how could he know this?
When families in the village have children, the rich just boil a few eggs, and the poor just steam a pot of coarse grain steamed buns, put a red dot on the eggs or steamed buns, and give a share to neighbors and relatives, and that's it.
If you can't even steam the millet, you can dye the millet red and share a handful among the family.
Therefore, the old village chief had no idea what the specifications Tie Shixin was talking about. He scratched his head and asked: "Specifications? What specifications?"
"This child is the first child of His Majesty and Sir, and is the eldest princess of Dakang! According to the rules, the concubine who gives birth to the first child for the royal family will be given a title and will have to go to Huangling to thank her."
Tie Shixin explained: "But now..."
At this point, Tie Shixin stopped talking, but the village chief understood what he meant.
The Ninth Princess is the first female emperor in the world, and there is absolutely no case to refer to.
Should Jin Feng be put in the position of a concubine, accept the canonization of the Ninth Princess, and kowtow to the Ninth Princess to express gratitude?
Tie Shixin didn't even need to ask, he knew that Jin Feng would definitely not agree.
If possible, Tie Shixin really doesn't want to get involved in this matter, but his current status is considered to be the chief manager of the Ninth Princess, so he can only take care of this matter.
This is why he called in the old village chief Xiaoyu and others, and even Liu Buqun and Fang Lingjun, whom he had not dealt with before, came over.
If Jin Feng or Ninth Princess are dissatisfied in the future, someone will join him in carrying the thunder.
It's a pity that Fang Lingjun and Liu Buqun didn't take the bait at all. They didn't say a word and didn't talk to each other since they came in.
Finally, Xiaoyu said: "Now that your Majesty is not here, why don't we wait for His Majesty to feel better in a few days and then go ask His Majesty?"
"This is the only way!" Tie Shixin nodded, and then said: "Xiaoyu, by the way, please ask Your Majesty if you have notified sir about this matter."
"Okay," Xiaoyu nodded, then looked at the others: "Does anyone else want to write a letter to Xizhou?"
Nowadays, when scouts want to send letters to Xizhou, they have to go through mountains and deep forests. Every time they go there, it costs a lot of money. If the village leaders want to write letters to their relatives in Xizhou, they have to take advantage of this opportunity.
"Miss Xiaoyu, if you want to send a letter to your husband, please bring one for the old man as well."
Fang Lingjun took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xiaoyu.
Sichuan-Shu University Normal College has been open for several months. The first batch of students have been trained and are now on vacation.
According to Jin Feng's plan, after the spring of next year, the first batch of trainees will officially take up their posts, and Guangyuan will be used as a pilot to begin an attempt to popularize compulsory education.
But after the establishment of the Normal College, Jin Feng has not been idle. Recently, he even went to Yuguan and Xizhou, and even no one could be found.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, Fang Lingjun didn't know what to do next, so he could only write to Jin Feng for instructions.
In fact, what Fang Lingjun did was somewhat against the rules.
He should ask the Ninth Princess for instructions first, and then ask Jin Feng.
But just like Guan Xiaorou's thoughts were all on Jin Feng, and the Ninth Princess's thoughts were on government affairs, Fang Lingjun's thoughts were all on education.
Ever since I heard Jin Feng talk about compulsory education, Fang Lingjun's biggest wish has been to "let all children in well-off families read."
So even though he knew it was against the rules, he still wrote a letter to Jin Feng.
Because Jin Feng attaches more importance to education, while the Ninth Princess only wants to pacify the Central Plains.
Universalizing compulsory education requires a lot of manpower and material resources. If the Ninth Princess denies this plan, Fang Lingjun will be in trouble, and Jin Feng will not be able to directly overturn the Ninth Princess's decision.
So Fang Lingjun decided to go beyond the Ninth Princess and ask Jin Feng directly for instructions.
I was still thinking about how to deliver the letter to Jin Feng.
Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, but seeing Fang Lingjun's sincere eyes, she took the letter.
"Thank you, Miss Xiaoyu!"
Fang Lingjun saluted Xiaoyu.
He did not seek an official position, but Xiaoyu still had to work under the Ninth Princess. If the Ninth Princess blamed him in the future, it would mean Xiaoyu would be harmed.
This made Fang Lingjun feel guilty for taking advantage of Xiaoyu.
"Mr. Fang, get up quickly!"
Xiaoyu quickly helped Fang Lingjun up.
Tie Shixin and others thought that the Ninth Princess had just given birth and would definitely need to rest for a few days. However, after the meeting was over, Xiaoyu received a report from her subordinates that the Ninth Princess had just sent a batch of memorials to the room.
"Your Majesty, isn't this nonsense?" the old village chief looked at his daughter: "Xiaoyu, go and persuade Your Majesty to let her have a good confinement period!"
When ordinary women give birth to a child, they have to rest for a few days before getting out of bed. As a result, Princess Ninth started working today.
Tie Shixin and the village chief were both men, so it was not appropriate to visit them, so Xiaoyu had to go.
"Okay," Xiaoyu nodded and turned to go to Princess Ninth's room.
At this time, the smell of blood in the room had not completely dissipated. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Princess Ninth sitting on the bed, with a small table in front of her and stacks of memorials on the table.
The Ninth Princess looked down at the memorial. In the crib next to her, the child was sleeping soundly.
