Chapter 474: Three Feet of Ice

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“In secret, Li Qiguang wanted to divert the attention of the Imperial Court and plan to escape. After Young Master received the news, he beat him at his own game and revealed the news to the clan. There was internal strife between the two sides, and in the end, Young Master captured them all.”

Yu Youyao pursed her lips. She knew that she couldn’t hear any exciting stories from Yin San.

This was the process.

However, how could it be said in just a few words?

However, since Shandong had been resolved so easily, her cousin would be able to return to the court in about half a month, so Yu Youyao did not dwell on this.

She laid out the paper, dipped it in ink, and replied to her cousin.

After not writing to her cousin for more than a month, Yu Youyao rambled on for more than 20 pages. Just like before, most of them were trivial matters in the residence

For example, this year, the top scholar was from a poor family.

After the article about the palace examination circulated, Yu Youyao also read it.

This scholar of the Humble Class was indeed extremely talented. He wrote the entire “Theory of Governance” and used the memorial that he had given to the gods during the Daoist Ritual.

It used extremely beautiful words to express that in the world, it was the land of the emperor. The emperor ruled with kindness, and the vassal kings should bow down.

When a vassal king ruled the people, he had to be benevolent and lead the army without being self-important

The vassal lords govern their fiefs and respond to the emperor’s benevolence. The vassal lords had to know the rules and the emperors benevolence…

There was a key point. The vassal lords surrounded the land and became kings. The people of the vassal lands were under the rule of the vassal lords, so they naturally did not know about the merit of the emperor.

He pointed out that the vassal lords had to be governed first. The people’s hearts were with the emperor, so there was nothing for the vassal lords to do.

It was indeed true, but the action was rather empty. It was not even as good as Yu Shande’s article.

Yu Youyao could clearly tell that this article was filled with Daoist words. The words were filled with flattery and favor. It was obvious that he wanted to follow the path of a scholar and rise through the ranks.

On the other hand, he had flattered the emperor. The emperor was overjoyed and showed his talent. Even if it was a different way, he was still chosen by the emperor as the top scholar.

Yu Youyao also mentioned the top four scholars of the Yu Residence, causing a commotion in the world.

In ancient times, there was a sect with four scholars who were from the same sect but on different rankings. It was a legend. It was extremely rare for a family to have four scholars like the Yu Residence this time.

Yu Youyao guessed that this was probably related to Duke Zhonglie.

There were many related books that had been passed down through the generations in the heavy industries, agriculture, and business world. The Yu family had inherited the legacy of their ancestors for generations and had first considered Duke Liezhong’s books as the Four Books and Five Classics to study.

In this imperial examination, many young masters of aristocratic families

who prided themselves on being talented had their courage reduced by the words “ruling the vassal state.” It was inevitable that they would be timid and not show their standards.

Ever since Emperor Gaozu, the Great Zhou Dynasty had praised Duke Zhonglie’s political affairs. It also placed great importance on heavy work, agriculture, and business. No matter from which point of view, it was compatible with governance.

Some descendants of the aristocratic families failed the imperial examination while the performance of the Yu Clan was especially outstanding.

In addition, the Yu Clan had fewer talents. Although the article did not have any important requirements for governance, it was still useful and practical. In addition, the treasury was empty. Heavy work, agriculture, and business were the foundation of the treasury.

The emperor also valued the Yu Clan and supported it for his own use. That was why he valued the Yu Clan so much.

Yu Youyao mentioned that Yu Shande had chosen a lucky scholar to enter the Hanlin Academy.

She even mentioned that there was a big banquet at home. There were 35 tables each for men and women, and there was almost no room for everyone. Fortunately, they were all prepared at home. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing.

At this point, she couldn’t help but complain to her cousin. It was too tiring to hold a banquet, and there weren’t many people in the family. Each of them had to do the same work as ten people. Fortunately, Nanny Xu helped…

She even wrote that now that Concubine Qiu was pregnant, she could help manage the situation.

After rambling for a while, she was about to mention Song Mingzhao’s visit when she thought about it and dismissed the idea. What did Song Mingzhao have to do with her?

Why should she care so much!

(Qing Ci: In the Ming Dynasty, there was a saying that there was a “Prime Minister of Qing Ci.” As Emperor Jiajing was obsessed with Daoism, most of the ministers in the cabinet who could successfully rise to power had written excellent Qing Ci to flatter the emperor.)

After writing the letter, Yu Youyao shook her arm and looked at it carefully again. The red silk inkstone was soft and smooth, and the words she wrote

were beautiful.

Yu Youyao divided the finished letter into two envelopes and took out some spiritual dew, medicinal dew, Lingxi Bug Liquid, lotus seed tea that she had made a few days ago, and so on. She handed a huge package to Yin San. “Tell Cousin to take care of his health.” It was easy to fight, but the aftermath of the battle was the highlight.

The clans had controlled Shandong for hundreds of years. Without the deterrence of the Imperial Court’s 100,000 troops, and without her cousin presiding over it, the officials of the various prefectures in Shandong might not be able to deal with the remaining forces of the clans.

Rome wasn’t built in a day. There were too many ills in Shandong. Her cousin still had many things to deal with.

The news of Shandong’s great victory caused an uproar.

Yu Jianjia had also bought a lot of books about Prince Yin. For some reason, she thought of Zhou Linghuai, who had yet to return from Youzhou!

When had Yu Youyao, who used to be as stupid as a pig, become a different person?

On careful thought, it was after Zhou Linghuai entered the residence.

Zhou Linghuai had taught Yu Youyao how to study. Yu Youyao had changed from being ignorant and incompetent in the past and had gained Ms. Ye’s praise.

Zhou Linghuai taught Yu Youyao calligraphy. Yu Youyao changed from her usual handwriting and practiced calligraphy that only men could practice. She caught her father’s eye.

Zhou Linghuai had taught Yu Youyao how to play the zither. Yu Youyao had changed from not being good at zither skills in the past. Although she did not show much of her zither skills, she could still receive applause from the entire hall a few times.

They were both 15 or 16 years old. They were both crippled and weak, and were even from Youzhou. Zhou Linghuai was shrewd, and Yin Huaixi was peerless in intelligence.

When had a disabled person like Zhou Linghuai become so powerful?!

This was too much of a coincidence!

However, on careful thought, Yin Huaixi and Zhou Linghuai had both suffered a family change, so everything made sense.

Yu Jianjia put down her notebook in frustration. Feeling suffocated, she called Seventh Aunt over. “Aunt, after returning to the residence during the

Mid-Autumn Festival, many big and small things happened one after another. It’s been almost two months. Now that everything in the residence is over, I want to return to the manor to continue recuperating.”

Yu Jianjia finally understood that her mother had completely become an abandoned woman.

It was unknown if Old Madam and Yu Youyao were crazy, but they actually praised a concubine in every way.

Not long after Concubine Qiu stabilized her pregnancy, Old Madam picked a clan aunt from the clan to teach and help Concubine Qiu manage the household with Yu Youyao.

The huge Yu Residence was actually handed over to a concubine to manage.

It was simply ridiculous.

Seventh Aunt took care of Yu Jianjia’s daily life and knew that she had not had a good appetite recently. “I’ll report it to Old Madam first and hear what she has to say.”

She understood that after Yu Jianjia returned to the residence, everyone in the residence accommodated her first. Although it was not as peaceful as the manor, Yu Jianjia’s courtyard was still very quiet.

Old Madam wanted Yu Jianjia to stay in the courtyard to recuperate..
