Whether Tan Fengzhen is willing or not, as the only female winner of the mathematics competition, Song Qingyue will take her as a model.In this era, women are born to depend on men to live.It's not that they are incapable, but that they have no other way to go.

Song Qingyue hated Liang Tongyue personally, but she didn't hate her intellectually.

As Li Zhao's woman, Liang Tongyue is just like herself, a pawn for the family to gain benefits and the royal family to maintain relations.

She worked hard to win favor, and she was essentially no different from the workers in her previous life who "voluntarily" worked overtime every day and tried to please the leader.It's just that in this era, and in her cognition, she has only one way to go.

Although Song Qingyue hated this cousin of the Liang family, she knew that it was not Liang Tongyue's fault, nor could it be Li Zhao's fault.

This is a kind of inevitability in the current productive society.

But there's always something you can do when you travel through time.

Song Qingyue now has such a high status, and Li Zhaohe Emperor is willing to give her a certain degree of freedom and support. She feels that she has an obligation to do something that can change the status quo. At least let those girls know that in this world, apart from marrying, there is no There is a second path that can change destiny.

Song Qingyue asked Li Zhao if he could write in the mansion newspaper that he rewarded Tan Fengzhen with a bonus of 100 taels.

Regarding his wife's request, Li Zhao rarely hesitated.

"Can't you?" Song Qingyue looked up at Li Zhao with her small face up.

Li Zhao's heart softened after being looked at, but the mansion report is not an ordinary thing, it is the way the emperor communicates with the world, it is like CCTV news, it is not a fight between two middle-aged men in an alley Things can be published.

"This matter... I'm afraid it won't work." Li Zhao insisted on the principle with great difficulty.

Song Qingyue snorted angrily, wondering if she should start a newspaper by herself to promote "private goods" or something.

But she also feels that the streets are full of illiterates, most of the people who really want to promote cannot read, and most of the literati who can read are the vested interests of this era, not the target of her own propaganda, the time has not yet come!
Since it can't be written in the mansion newspaper, let's start with the capital first, Song Qingyue always has a trick.
-
Besides the Zhang family, since August th, when the new cabinet assistant candidate was announced by the emperor himself, Zhang Shilang has become very irritable.The air pressure in the entire Minister's mansion is a little low.

Zhang Shilang's eldest son, Zhang Ruiming, was even more displeased, staying in the concubine's room for several days.

His wife, Yao Shi, knew that she had messed up her affairs, so she cried secretly for several nights, but in the end, Yao Shi's nanny couldn't stand it anymore, and asked her to go to the Song family to ask my sister-in-law what was going on, and if there was any inside story.

The Yao family went to the Song Mansion the next day. Zhang Luoyi saw her sister-in-law's swollen eyes, and immediately sat her down, and asked with concern: "My elder brother bullied you again?"

Yao shook his head: "I'm useless, I couldn't get things done."

"Bah!" Zhang Luoyi said bitterly, "The man himself is incompetent, but the woman at home is to blame. How can there be such a reason? You go home and tell Dad to let him learn from Mr. Lu, sir. You come and go, do more practical things, His Majesty and His Royal Highness like people like that. You tell my brother again, just say I said it, so that he doesn't think that relying on me, he can gain face with His Highness. There are people in their thirties, and I have no skills. I count on my father and sister every day. When the opportunity is given to him, I don’t get His Highness’s attention, so I vent my anger on his wife. What kind of man is he! Let Let's take a pee and see what kind of virtue he has!"

After listening to sister-in-law's scolding, Yao's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he burst out laughing: "How can you criticize your elder brother like this?"

Zhang Luoyi snorted, "Because he deserves to be scolded! He has high eyes and low hands, and is pretentious, he deserves to be scolded!"

"Okay, don't talk about him like that!" Yao Shi defended her husband, suddenly remembered something, and said, "I heard that Song Erlang and the daughter of the Lu family saw each other. Is there such a thing? Your brother also said Well, Mr. Lu's Minister Lu recommended him to His Majesty because he was about to become in-laws with Mr. Song."

Zhang Luoyi sighed deeply: "If you talk about in-laws, isn't the Zhang family also the Song family's in-laws? And my mother-in-law's father, Mr. Liang! At the beginning of the month, Mr. Liang visited the Song residence several times in person. What's the use? After all, the old servant Lu is capable, and he won the second prize in the math competition at a young age! I know that my father is jealous of my father-in-law, and he doesn't have the ability of my father-in-law. Big brother is just like him, jealous of A Xu."

Yao shi had no choice but to sigh too.

Yes, math competition is not easy!
More than 1 people participated, and the top 160 must be among the eight to win the prize.

If you want to win the second prize, you have to be in the top 72.

Seeing that her sister-in-law was still depressed, Zhang Luoyi took her by the hand and said, "At the end of the month, the concubine will hold an osmanthus flower banquet at the hot spring villa, and then you can go and relax with me."
-
At the end of August, Jin Princess Song Qingyue's "Golden Autumn Osmanthus Banquet" was held as scheduled in the Royal Hot Spring Villa. In addition to inviting distinguished ladies and girls in the capital, Tan Fengzhen, a businesswoman, was also specially invited.

During the banquet, not only let Tan Fengzhen sit at the same table with him, but also held Tan Fengzhen's hand, talked to her affectionately, and praised her high.

For a while, everyone was asking who this woman who was holding hands and talking with Princess Jin was, and why they had never seen it before.

Yao shi looked at Tan Fengzhen with a bit of envy in her eyes, she asked the sister-in-law in a low voice: "Who is that one, so the empress values ​​it so much."

Song Qianqian, who was sitting together with osmanthus cake stuffed in her mouth, answered first, "My aunt's natal nephew and daughter-in-law."

"Is it your cousin's sister-in-law?"

"No! Not an aunt." Qianqian replied.

"Another aunt... is that a merchant?" Yao was surprised.

Song Qianqian propped her chin: "It can be regarded as an imperial merchant. Now most of the peppercorns in the palace are supplied by the Tan family. Now besides peppercorns, they also grow peppers and so on."

"Huangshang is also a merchant." Yao still couldn't figure it out.

Seeing that my sister-in-law couldn't get to the point, Zhang Luoyi hurriedly revealed the answer: "It has nothing to do with those. He won the second prize in this math competition!"

Yao Shi was surprised for a moment: "So powerful?"

Zhang Luoyi hummed: "Of course! She manages the Tan family's business. My fourth uncle said that many people in Hunan eat chili as salt. The Tan family's chili business is very big in Hunan." Miss Tan's ability to settle accounts is not comparable to that of ordinary people."

"That's really amazing." Yao shi sighed, thinking of participating in the arithmetic competition next year.

But Tan Fengzhen, whom everyone envied, was sitting on pins and needles beside this Princess Jin, noticing that many noble ladies and ladies were secretly looking at her, her face almost froze with laughter!
She knew that she was a merchant, and her status was inferior to that of everyone present, but this princess praised herself so highly!She is really a bit overwhelmed.
