After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

"Yuan Ying and Yuan Qi are brothers. And Yuan Chenji is most likely Yuan Ying's changed name."

"Your Highness, who are you talking about?"

This question brought Po, who was talking to himself, back to his senses.

Looking at the Censor Zhang Lanheng who was standing at the other end of the desk, he put down his ink pen and his gentle eyes showed a slightly strange expression.

Seeing this, A Bao explained: "I'm talking about the men in these portraits. Since they are related to Mount Lop Nur, maybe I should go there myself."

"North of the northern border, in an extremely cold place, the devil mountain that storytellers talk about, Mount Lop?" Zhang Lanheng added many cruel prefixes to the mountain in one breath, frowning and worried: "The spring examination is approaching, if the princess leaves the imperial capital at this time, it may not be appropriate."

Ah Bao also knew that the imperial court was calm and prosperous on the surface, but secretly, people were worried and anxious, and they were all staring at her East Palace. Any disturbance could cause a storm.

What's more, after the fall of Yuan and his cronies, new people will always be needed to fill their positions.

Thinking of this, A Bao recalled the secret memorial that Yan Haixi had sent from the Pacification Office some time ago.

These are the whereabouts of those scholars who had already secretly defected to Pei Guichen after entering the imperial capital.

In order to cover up their involvement with the Pei family, they sent visiting cards to the Murong family, the Chu family, and the residences of ministers in the court.

Several of them were even invited to Yuan's mansion to attend the Goose-Chasing Banquet when they were temporarily staying in Zhengmao Hall.

However, the Yuan family fell overnight.

"Commander Yan will take care of those scholars who have surrendered to Pei Guichen." A Bao asked, "Master Zhang, do you have any doubts about the list I gave you?"

"They are all people who are well-versed in the books of sages and are determined to speak for the people. Two of them are from poor families. I have borrowed the name of Fanlou to invite them to the Tzu Chi Institute to teach the children. I will then give them the silver they earned from teaching."

This also avoided the two scholars from refusing.

Hearing this, Abao nodded thoughtfully.

"How is Feng Sui doing?" When she left Jiangnan, the women's academy that Feng Sui had discussed with the Lu family had already started classes. "Did you encounter any troublemakers?"

The Jiangnan gentry would probably not allow the women's academy to become a thorn in their eyes.

"The women's academy is also going well." Zhang Lanheng had been planning to report the matter and handed over a memorial he had written in advance.

Just at this time, Hongxiu came to serve tea and snacks.

Zhang Lanheng had just taken Abao's hot tea when two food boxes appeared in front of him, which Abao pushed over.

"Almond tofu, steamed cheese with sugar, pearl cake, and yam cake. They are all Xiaojing'er's favorites."

Hearing this, Zhang Lanheng looked up and saw Abao mentioning Xiao Jing'er with a gentle smile, "On New Year's Eve, Xiao Jing'er came to the palace to play, and I saw that he liked these four cakes very much. It just so happens that you came to the palace today, and when you return home later, you must trouble Master Zhang to bring a surprise for Xiao Jing'er."

"And the food box on the right is the Ruyi Glutinous Rice Balls." A Bao's smile deepened. "I heard from Xiao Jing'er that Master Zhang always went back to the East China Sea for the Lantern Festival in previous years. This year Master Zhang couldn't go home for the reunion, so I sent someone to deliver these Ruyi Glutinous Rice Balls from the East China Sea."

"Can I discuss something with you, Master Zhang?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lanheng was stunned, only to see A Bao smiling cunningly and cleverly.

In a trance, Zhang Lanheng said, "Just follow the princess' orders."

However, Zhang Lanheng's mind raced, but he still couldn't figure out what had happened that required Her Royal Highness the Princess to worry so much.

But the next moment, the princess smiled and said, "Xiao Jing'er is at the age when he is naughty and playful. Although he is just beginning to learn, Lord Zhang does not need to restrict him too much. As for being good at both civil and military affairs, I have already agreed with King Feng Ran that he should take his time with sword training and there is no rush."

Before he finished speaking, the black-robed king hurried in.

An urgent memorial sent from thousands of miles away was delivered to the Xuanshi Hall.

A small town in Qicheng was burned down, killing 261 people in the town.
