Chapter 141 She must go to the Spring Ploughing Ceremony!
"Sir?"

My goodness, on top of asking her to work overtime, he now wants to ask her to work overtime on a business trip!
The Spring Ploughing Ceremony, as the name suggests, is a ceremony held on the first day of spring ploughing every year.

This grand ceremony is not held in the imperial palace, nor in some other exquisite and luxurious temple or palace. It is usually held in the area with the most fertile farmland near the capital.

The emperor led the ministers of the court, and even his concubines and children, to work in the fields in person to show the importance the court attached to the people of the world.

At the same time, we also pray to God, hoping that there will be good weather and a good harvest this year.

Because this can be considered physical work, Emperor Xuanwu would only bring his children over the age of fifteen to the annual spring ploughing ceremony.

But this year...

"Father, I am not even fourteen yet!"

Yunshu tried to remind Emperor Xuanwu.

In fact, if she only had to work in the fields for a day, she wouldn't mind.
Since I haven't done it before, I might as well give it a try.

But the problem is that the words "the area with the most concentrated fertile fields near the capital" mean that this journey will definitely require a long journey in the carriage!

Thinking of the experience during the last autumn hunt, Yun Shu felt as if he was about to fall apart again:
"How about I..."

"The Right Prime Minister was in Xuanzheng Hall today. Apart from other things, one thing he said was correct."

Emperor Xuanwu said quietly:

"Your identity is different now after all."

As a princess, she was under fifteen years old, so she did not need to go with them.

But as a minister in the court, she had to participate in this spring ploughing ceremony.

"Besides,"

Emperor Xuanwu said slowly:

"Don't you want more people to know that there is a new female official in the court?"

"I can publish this in the Capital Weekly."

Yun Shu lowered her head and straightened her wrinkled sleeves:
"After the low-priced paper is popularized and chambers of commerce are established in various places, I plan to turn this Capital Weekly into Tiansheng Weekly. In the future, if there is anything in the capital that I want to tell the world, I can say it through Tiansheng Weekly."

"It will take at least another three months for the low-priced paper to be available."

The key point of low-priced paper is low price.
If it were put on the market as soon as it was made, it would definitely be snapped up.

Those who cannot get the papers at that time may choose to raise the price and buy them back from others.

After all, as long as the price he raises is lower than the current price of paper sold outside, he will still make a profit.

But in this case, the "low price" of low-priced paper will no longer exist.

Those who don't want to see the price of paper drop might take advantage of the chaos to do something, using the low price of paper released by the court to extort money from poor students...

This was something Emperor Xuanwu did not want to see at all.

So he would rather wait until enough low-priced paper was produced and then sell them all together.

After briefly explaining the interests involved to Yun Shu, Emperor Xuanwu leaned back in his chair and concluded:
“So, your Tiansheng Weekly will not be available for a while.

Besides, even if it is the capital weekly, those honest farmers may not have the opportunity to see or hear it. "

"But I really don't want to sit in a carriage for so long anymore."

Yun Shu's eyes were filled with resentment, and he looked depressed and aggrieved.
"Aren't the Spring Ploughing Ceremony usually attended by the ministers in the court?
I don't have to go to court every day!"

Emperor Xuanwu: “…”

Are you really that unwilling to go?
This child is still young indeed.
And she was right! She didn't even have to attend the morning court anymore. Otherwise, the Spring Ploughing Ceremony would be...

【The Sims selection system is at your service.

Please select the decision you would like to make next. 】

Emperor Xuanwu: “.”

If nothing unexpected happens, Xiaowu will definitely go on this trip.

I just wonder what kind of surprise she will give him this time?
Emperor Xuanwu glanced at Yunshu calmly, then pretended to be thinking and read the title on the screen - [A. Agree to Yunshu staying in the palace;

B. Insist on taking Yunshu to participate in the Spring Ploughing Ceremony. 】

This time there are only two options left.

Emperor Xuanwu first tried to look at A.

[You chose A. Yunshu doesn't have to attend the Spring Ploughing Ceremony and is in a very happy mood.]

Emperor Xuanwu: “?”

That's it? ?
He knew that A was indeed not good enough!

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the second option without hesitation.

[You chose B. The survival rate of rice will be greatly improved next year. All the main roads in Tiansheng will be rebuilt and made extremely smooth within three years! ]

hiss……

Just because she was tired of riding in a carriage that rocked her precious body, she decided to pave all the main roads in Tiansheng within three years?

And rice!

The survival rate is greatly improved, so what is the difference between this and a greatly increased yield?
She is truly worthy of being his Qilin girl!
He said that anyone could be missing from the Spring Ploughing Ceremony except Xiaowu!

The expression on Emperor Xuanwu's face suddenly became extremely kind:

"Xiaowu..."

"…Father, just speak frankly."

Yun Shu silently took two steps back:
"You are so scared!"

"?"

This rebellious girl!

Emperor Xuanwu snorted coldly, and his expression changed in an instant:
"You have to go to this spring ploughing ceremony whether you want to or not.

If you really don't want to ride in a carriage alone, I'll let your Sixth Brother go with you!"

Yun Shu: “…”

Did she implicate Yun Chuhuan?
……

Coming out of the imperial study, Yunshu judged others by himself, and it was rare that his conscience took over the high ground.

I was wondering whether I should make something delicious today to make up for Yun Chuhuan who was accidentally injured.

Before I had taken a few steps, another little head popped out from the corner.

"Fifth sister!"

"Why are you here?"

Yun Shu paused:
"Are you here to see your father?"

"Why would I look for Father? I must be looking for you!"

Yun Chuhuan trotted over and skillfully grabbed Yun Shu's sleeve, looking up with excitement:
"Fifth sister, is it fun to go to court?
Doesn’t it feel particularly majestic?”

"That's it."

Yun Shu said casually:
"There are not many people in the entire Xuanzheng Hall who like me. Almost everyone is against me and does not want to see me enter the court."

"impossible!"

Yun Chuhuan was stunned for a moment:
"Didn't my grandfather support you?"

"How do you know Liu Xiang supports me?"

Yun Shu was also stunned, and then she pinched Yun Chuhuan's face in disbelief:
"Could it be that you asked Liu Xiang to do this?"

"It's not me, it's my mother!"

Yun Chuhuan quickly saved his face from Yun Shu's hands, scratched his head, and tried hard to recall what Concubine Liu had said at that time.
