Take the Warehouse To The Great Ming

Vol 4 Chapter 2293: Beat from the Queen Mother

The status of women has always been a topic worthy of discussion.

In the long history, except for matrilineal society, women have existed as men's vassals most of the time.

But even so, even when women have the lowest status, there will always be a group of women standing at the top, and they can even wrestle with men.

This group of people may be called princesses, such as those princesses in the Tang Dynasty who did not obey women's ways.

This group of people may be called queens and noble concubines, such as the queen in the sky of the sun and the moon.

This group of people may be called ladies, such as this group of dignified women in front of you.

"The lady is here..."

With the prolonged voice of the eunuch, the queen mother appeared.

Hu Shanxiang supported her left hand and walked to the right with the hand of the Queen Mother.

This is a peaceful picture, so after the salute, the queen mother also smiled and said: "The plan for the year lies in spring. Although the palace is eager to be spring all year round, but without the heat of summer, where can the autumn harvest be?"

Most of the ladies standing here are not lacking in political sensitivity, and they can understand those words like whispers in seconds.

So everyone laughed, but refused to speak.

——It was a very hot summer, which was extremely hot for the gentry and powerful. But after this summer, the next is a bumper harvest.

Hu Shanxiang sat down, but Duan Duan didn't have a special seat. He sat beside the Queen Mother.

The queen mother glanced at the ladies below, then nodded and said, "Let’s serve wine and food."

Each person has a small couple, and each person has a cushion.

After a while, the ladies sat down.

Noble ladies are naturally not the same as men, so the dishes are mainly refined.

Zhang Shuhui calmly ate a small dumpling, and the flavor of the filling burst out, only to realize that it was a combination of several fillings, and then the various flavors were distinct from the beginning to the delicious after mixing...

This is the big explosion of taste buds!

Zhang Shuhui glanced at the other side, and all she saw was Zhenjing, that is, her face was expressionless.

It's best to put away any emotions in this place. Whether you go home and brag with your family or show off with outsiders, you can only be honest at this moment.

Fang's diet is very complicated, Fang Xing's taste is heavy, while Zhang Shuhui and Xiao Bai are both light, so they often cook in two categories.

Gradually, the time is getting longer, the ones with light taste also learn to eat spicy, and the ones with heavy taste also learn to eat light.

This is fusion.

Zhang Shuhui walked away, and the queen above had already toasted.

So everyone toasted to the Queen Mother.

The queen mother drank the wine, looked down calmly, and said: "Mrs. Xinghe Bo..."

Zhang Shuhui slowly got up, the queen mother pressed her hand and said, "Sit down."

No one knew what the Queen Mother meant. After Zhang Shuhui sat down, she slowly said: "Xing He Bo has been out to sea this time, and the emperor remembers it!"

Zhang Shuhui got up again to thank her.

"In the past, our palace always thought that there were only a few fairy mountains overseas, and then they were all water."

The words of the Queen Mother made everyone laugh.

Now the merchants on the southern side have broken their minds in providing goods for overseas trade. The last group of merchants who donated money to build new warships made a lot of money. It is said that many people went directly to the shipyard with their pockets full of money. Expressed willingness to donate funds to build the ship.

According to those people's estimates, if the supply qualifications were completely released, the new warship would probably not have to spend money in Korea.

But even the most stingy Xia Yuanji disagrees with this. According to him, how can you pin your hopes on merchants as the country's most important weapon?

But how can the Queen Mother speak so shallowly?

And she didn't need to worry about the atmosphere, even if she didn't say a word from beginning to end, no one would dare to say that the meal was frustrated.

So everyone put down their chopsticks and listened carefully.

"The treasure ship has gone to sea many times, and this palace knows that there are big places overseas, and even those places are not smaller than Da Ming."

The empress dowager's tone was flat, as if she was reading the scriptures.

"After the Taixi envoy came, my palace knew that this world was not just Daming, not just the grassland, but there were great nations in the distance, so I felt that it was a frog at the bottom of the well in the past."

"Niangniang was joking, if it weren't for what Niangniang had just said, the concubines still don't know what Taixi missions are!"

"Yes! Those outside the domain are savage, the nation of Ming etiquette, naturally don't care about those with them..."

"I heard that Tessie women also wear skirts, but both men and women wear high shoes. I don't know why, someday I will ask someone to try a pair..."

"..."

The topic soon moved farther and farther away, sitting next to the Queen Mother, listening to these mutterings, she couldn't help putting down her chopsticks, and whispered: "Grandma, they...what a gossip!"

The Queen Mother was observing these noble ladies, and she couldn't help but said: "What is gossip?"

Duandu frowned and said, "I just talk a lot, and I like to inquire, and I like to talk about other people's homes."

This is talking about women with long tongues!

The queen mother couldn't help but smile, then touched the top of her head and said: "You almost drink that bowl of soup, and then you will feel comfortable."

Looking at the bowl of mutton soup with medicinal materials, I couldn't help sighing like an adult: "The medicine is poisonous!"

The queen mother looked lovingly at her side, and after turning her face, the love turned into indifference.

There is no need to cough, the ladies who are the most eye-catching are all gone.

In the silence, the queen mother said: "There are so many lands overseas, so you can go where you want land. When you get there, you can have as much as you want. As long as someone is planting the land, you can occupy it as much as you like."

"Don't stare at this place in Central Plains!"

The Queen Mother raised a glass, and everyone drank in a hurry.

"Who told this palace last time..."

Taihou thought about the wine glass, and said: "It is said that the land in the Central Plains has been cultivated for many years, and it has long been overwhelmed. Once there is some trouble, it will be a famine~www.wuxiaspot.com~ My palace is thinking about overseas. It is said that the land over there is fertilizer. Insert chopsticks can live."

...

The banquet soon ended, and the queen mother sent a basket of fresh vegetables to each family.

So amid the mighty praise of the emperor's grace, everyone was led out of the palace.

"Is this to appease?"

"It's more beating."

"We have been cleared of many fields. What the mother meant is that we don't toss about Central Plains. If we still want land, we will go overseas."

"Where is Nuer Gandusi? It is rumored that the soil over there is all black. That's a good place! It's closer."

"Immigration is not accepted there anymore, it is said to be full."

"It's full? No, it's a big place."

"People say that immigrants will give birth to children, and for children and grandchildren, you have to reserve a place, otherwise, after a few generations, there will be no land to plant."

A group of noble ladies were analyzing the words of the Queen Mother, and then they were a little depressed.

"I heard that in the future, we will clean up the slaves and maids who have slave status. Hey! Where can I find someone to farm overseas?"

A lady sneered and exposed the pit that the emperor had dug for everyone, and then found that the surrounding area was empty for an instant, and she insisted: "What are you afraid of, there is no way to survive, can't I say a few words."

The court ladies and eunuchs who sent them out all looked down at the road, but everyone knows that the words of the lady just now will be passed to where they should be known later.

This lady regretted a little bit. When she saw Zhang Shuhui and Wu clan slowing down behind her, she blushed her eyes and choked up and said, "It’s good to have a holy family! People like us can only linger, nothing more, just look back. The family bound themselves and pleaded guilty."

These words have a taste of self-defeating, and they also have a cruel meaning to slander Zhu Zhanji.

Everyone speeded up for a while, and soon left the woman behind.
