A new journey of accumulating wealth

In March of Yangchun, the grass grows and the warblers fly.

The imperial palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty was covered with a thick layer of green in the spring of March.

Whether it's the eaves or the roof, whether it's the cracks in the bricks or the top of the wall, it's full of greenery.

Xu Shinian opened his eyes, looked at the familiar curtain, and then remembered that she had returned to the palace.

Back to the palace!

that's nice!

She sat up, and the beautiful Gong'e outside was already waiting beside her: "Your Majesty!" His voice was low, somewhat indistinguishable, "You should get up and pay your respects to Your Majesty."

oh!yes!It's time to meet Li Zhao.

She stood up in good spirits, put on heavy makeup, and looked at herself in the bronze mirror with satisfaction.Turning around and looking at Gong'e with a smile, "How's your complexion?" You can't see it in the bronze mirror.

"Very good!" Gong'e answered very sincerely after studying it carefully.

Xu Shinian's mood improved again, "It's time to see His Majesty. There will be a grand court tomorrow. The crown prince is here, and the palace has curtains. I have to ask His Majesty for advice on matters in the hall."

Gong'e smiled and nodded: "But I think there is something more important than this."

Xu Shinian nodded, and allowed him to continue, "Say what you want, there is no one else in the palace."

Gong'e said in a low voice: "I think that no matter where you are, safety is the first priority. Now that you have returned to the palace, there are Your Majesty, the Prince, the Concubine, and you, Your Majesty. There are not many masters. But it's complicated. To put it boldly, His Majesty's prince and concubine are in one bedroom, and the empress is in another bedroom. Doesn't this mean that the current situation in the palace..."

"Oh!" Xu Shinian chuckled, "I know what you mean, they are a family, and I am an outsider, right?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Gong E bowed her body, but there was no panic on her face.

"You're right, how can you be guilty?" Xu Shinian stood up, took a sip of the milk he had prepared before, and it was just a good time to enter, "I'm alone, so I should put safety first." Number one. You reminded me very well!"

Gong'e stopped talking.Just then Xu Shinian said again: "If my elder brother had gained power in the palace, it wouldn't be in the current situation. Of course, the curtain can be drawn down in this palace, but it is also thanks to the elder brother's lack of power. It can be seen that everything is There are pros and cons."

"Empress Shengming." Gong'e said in a low voice: "The imperial army is different from others, directly in charge of the palace...

"I know." Xu Shinian said with some certainty, "In your heart, I don't even have this point? Let's go, it's getting late."

Gong'e had no choice but to swallow what she was about to say.

The imperial palace is still the same imperial palace, and Li Zhao is still the same Li Zhao.He leaned on the couch to look at her, but she only blessed Fushen perfunctorily, "I haven't seen you for a while, I don't think your health is getting better. Come here! Reward the noble concubine! Thanks to the noble concubine serving by His Majesty's side, otherwise how could I Okay so fast."

Wen Shi stood next to Li Zhao, and now he not only had to bow to him, but also knelt down to thank him.

Xu Shinian glanced at Wen Shi who was kneeling, and then turned his eyes away, "Where's the emperor? Why don't you see me?"

The prince should greet the queen.

Wen looked sideways at the eunuch standing by the door, and the eunuch nodded quickly and headed towards the side hall.

Wen Shi replied: "Your Highness got up early, so I'm afraid he's asleep right now. It's a bit windy today, so Mammy didn't dare to hug her..."

Xu Shinian snorted, "Although a child should go to bed early and get up early, this child is different after all. Although I have never given birth to a child, I also raised the eldest prince. The child should sleep well at night and take a nap every hundred days That's enough, and you can't be called sleepy and sleepy at night. You have given birth to children, but you have never raised any of them. Your Majesty is also bold, how dare you raise the prince?"

This is an inextricable knot between Li Zhao and Wen.

Li Zhao coughed lightly: "Is it the uncle's intention that the queen told me this?"

Xu Shinian choked, of course not!

Now this balance situation is hard to come by, if my brother knows that he is reaching out to the prince, he will be angry.Besides, she didn't mean anything like that.Just wanted to stab the two of them.

Xu Shinian leisurely picked and pulled the tea bowl cover on the small table, and then said: "Although I have a loving mother's heart, I wish I could bring every child by my side to raise them, but state affairs are more important. I want to draw the curtain , I am too busy with state affairs, so I can only wrong the emperor to be raised by the noble concubine." As he spoke, he looked at Wen, "Why are you still kneeling? Get up!"

As he spoke, the child hugged him.The nurse hugged her, Xu Shinian frowned and looked up, and tapped the child's face with the tip of her long fingers, "Hmm! It's not as smart and beautiful as the eldest prince when he was a child... It's a pity for that child... This one is really lucky of……"

The nurse was so frightened that she wished she could hold the baby and take a few steps back.

It's because Wen Shi is so self-restraining, and now he can hardly maintain the expression on his face.How did the First Prince become what he is now? Who caused it?

Xu Shinian!

She is piercing her heart!

"The imperial concubine will go down first with the crown prince, I will talk to the queen." Li Zhao looked at Wen with comforting eyes, then shook his head lightly.

Wen Shi didn't say a word, got up and left without saying a word.

Xu Shinian stood there without moving, looking at the retreating people with a mocking smile.Fragments of the dream popped up in her mind involuntarily.The woman just stood beside Li Zhao, looking down at her.

What a loving couple.

Xu Shinian turned around and looked at Li Zhao: "What? My heart hurts? Li Zhao, Li Zhao, as a king, you robbed your subjects' wives. As a man, you are also a wife if you are a friend's wife." She walked over step by step. , looking at Li Zhao who still couldn't leave the bed, "What kind of king are you? What kind of man are you?"

Xu Chun pretended to be a palace lady and didn't follow the hall, but just guarded outside.But hearing Xu Shinian say these words, he still frowned involuntarily.

This queen—what a fool!

So arrogant!

Li Zhao was too lazy to break up with this woman, and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it. You are quite busy now, so you won't come to see me if you have nothing to do."

Xu Shinian snorted, "When I come back, the first thing I worry about is the safety of our family. This palace is our home...but in our house, we sleep even if we want to sleep peacefully." Unreliable..."

A cold light flashed in Li Zhao's eyes, "You want to move the Imperial Army?"

The current Forbidden Army was arranged by the teacher alone, this is his last hole card.

Xu Shinian sat down on the chair, "I know that Your Majesty can trust the current imperial army, so I didn't say how to make a big move, but the commander of the imperial army didn't know where he found it, it was very presumptuous. No one practiced it." If you don't understand the rules, it is absolutely impossible. Besides, these people are too unruly, will my brother dare to enter the palace in the future? If my brother does not enter the palace, where will those important military and political affairs be handled? Do you want to treat the Xu family as a small Chaotang?"

Li Zhao squinted at her: "How are you doing?"

"Jin Jichang... What do you think of this person?" When Xu Shinian said the name, he took a sip of the tea and lowered his eyelids.

Xu Chun almost couldn't hold back standing outside, she had sworn before that she knew it, but unexpectedly, she had this idea in her heart.

"Fourth?" Li Zhao glanced at the queen in surprise, then fell silent for a moment, "Do you think he should be called to command the imperial army?"

"The emperor trusts the Jin family, and my brother can also trust him. Besides the Jin family, who else is suitable for the commander of the imperial army?" Xu Shinian held the teacup in his hand, slightly forceful.This is the first time she has intervened in government affairs so confidently.

Li Zhao pondered for a moment, "Prince Supervising the Country, after you have discussed this matter with Uncle Guo, who should you discuss with? I'm not in good health, so I need to rest. You should step down."

What does it mean?

Whether you agree or disagree, you should give me a clear sentence.

Li Zhaozhen lay down, closed his eyes and rested.Xu Shinian snorted coldly at Li Zhao's back lying on the bed, and then walked away.

Xu Shinian was so angry, Xu Chun didn't dare to say much, and followed him back step by step.After entering the bedroom, Xu Shinian turned to look at Xu Chun, "You also think this is inappropriate?"

Of course not.

The forbidden army originally belonged to the Jin family, and the current commander of the forbidden army still obeys the Jin family.Even if Jin Kuang was really sick, the rest of the Jin family was fine.Should it belong to the Jin family or the Jin family.

"Then I don't understand. I asked someone from the Jin family to take care of it. Is it wrong?" Isn't it the same thing?

Of course, what is on the surface is different from what is behind the scenes.

Now the Jin family is helping the crown prince, and their attitude towards the outside world is like this.Now that you propose to ask Fourth Master Jin to take care of this matter, what do others think? Do they think that the Xu family and the Jin family have reached some kind of agreement secretly.The balance was tilted this time, and the result was that the game was already bloody before it even started.

The direct result is that the two parties will enter a round of competition for the promotion, appointment and dismissal of court officials.

Even Xu Shizhong didn't want to see this situation.

He explained this to Xu Shinian, "You are too eager. The current court situation is like a child playing on a seesaw. The Jin family is the fulcrum of balance. Whoever has the most power will stay away from him. Whoever has less power in his hands will favor him. Madam, the imperial court is not a willful place."

Xu Shinian snorted softly: "It is said that a new official takes office three fires! As a queen with a curtain, I can't hold back the first thing I say, so who will take me seriously after that... Li Wei Stand up! This prestige must be erected!" After shouting this, my heart was relieved.

Sit down and think about it, it seems that what Xu Chun said is not unreasonable.She slowly stretched out her fingers, "Three things! First, pray for the emperor and give amnesty to the world. Second, open Enke! Third, fill the harem and choose concubines for the eldest prince. Don't mention other things, just these three things. pieces, is it possible?"

Xu Chun breathed a sigh of relief: "The empress is famous! These three things are all within the empress's responsibility. Besides, others have no reason to object."

Xu Shinian smiled sarcastically, "This Willy's is just looking for something that others won't object to, that's all." He lost interest in his words, and turned around and asked, "I told you to do things earlier. Are you ready? Prince Shun's birthday banquet is half a month away, and it will be soon. King Shun is respected by emperors in the clan, and this palace is also a junior. On that day, it is imperative to go to Uncle Shun's birthday."

Xu Chun's heart shuddered, she was already the queen of the curtain, why did she still remember this matter.He didn't dare to tell any more, he just responded in a low voice, "I won't delay your empress's important business."

Xu Shinian planned to ask Si Ye to be the commander of the imperial army, and word of it reached the Jin family that night.When Xu Shinian told Li Zhao, he didn't avoid people, so Wen knew about it immediately.Then they sent people out of the palace to inform Lin Yutong.

"How did this queen do it?" Tong Tong, who had been a queen, really couldn't understand Xu Shinian's behavior.It's just that she is really open and knows what fourth master wants in the future... But there is nothing constant.Circumstances change, and results will change.Just because you're on the hook doesn't mean you don't have to use your brain.

Fourth master didn't respond at all, "Xu Shizhong is not confused! I won't let her make trouble."

Sure enough, during the subsequent dynasty, no other proposals about the imperial army were heard.All I know is to amnesty the world and open Enke.There is also a draft, to choose a concubine for the eldest prince!

These three things are related to my family, that is, Kai Enke.

Kai Enke, Brother Kun and Brother Shen can all end, let's try it.I won't ask them to do anything else recently, so I'll work hard first.

As for Jin Qi and Jin Shiyi, they have to study for a few years first, they are still too early for the imperial examination.But the letter from the two of them who had been waiting for a long time finally arrived this time.

Fourth Master wrote a letter to inquire about the Cen family, but now there is news.

Fourth master handed the letter to Tongtong. Tongtong read it from beginning to end, but couldn't tell anything from the letter.This young lady is not easy to find out. She doesn't have a good reputation outside, but she hasn't heard any bad reputation either.Speaking of her, I can only say one thing, it's a pity, how could it be so unlucky that she caught up with her.

After reading it, Tongtong put the letter away, "I still have to meet people. I'm afraid that in the next few days, the people from the Cen family will also be in the capital."

Sure enough, three days later, Lin Yutong received a message that it was Mrs. Cen who invited Lin Yutong to watch a play in the theater.

It is false to watch a play, but it is true to see each other.Her brother and sister-in-law came to Beijing with her niece.

Because of business, Lin Yutong didn't take the girl with her when she went out, thinking that sister Qiong was going to go, so she called Mrs. Sun together again.

Mrs. Cen was very enthusiastic, "My lord is celebrating his birthday, and there are many opera troupes recommended. I am too picky. Today this troupe is from the south. My sister-in-law came and said that this troupe can't be hired in the south easily. What I said was lively. I thought to myself, is there any team in Beijing? I still don’t believe it. Today I invited a big guy, set up a garden, and asked everyone to taste and taste together. If it’s really good, when the real day comes, Please go back and help the fun."

As he spoke, he pulled Lin Yutong to introduce him, "This is my sister-in-law."

Mrs. Cen is a kind, round-faced woman, and she is Cen's own sister-in-law.The girl mentioned is the niece in the next room.

Big families are like this. When we meet each other, uncles, aunts, and aunts feel good. It is common for nieces to make decisions about engagements.

Lin Yutong greeted him and greeted everyone in the family. The journey was smooth.What they said was commonplace.

She noticed that the girl with an oval face and a slightly plump figure was following Mrs. Cen.She lowered her head slightly, dressed plainly and elegantly, stood with a smile on her mouth, no one introduced her, no one spoke to her, and she was not cramped.

Seeing that Lin Yutong saw it, Mrs. Cen pulled the girl over, "This is our Qiniang."

Cen Qiniang stepped forward with a smile and blessed her body, "I've met Fourth Grandma."

As soon as Lin Yutong helped him up, and put his hands on it, he knew his physical condition.This is a very healthy girl.

As for appearance, oval face, willow brows and almond eyes, she is quite good looking.Except for a few freckles on the nose, I can't tell what's wrong.

Lin Yutong took off the white jade bracelet and put it on her hand, "It's a little girl who wears it, it's more elegant."

Mrs. Cen called to salute Mrs. Sun again. Mrs. Sun knew that she was here to see her, so she was prepared.I pulled out a hairpin and stuck it on my head.

The first time I saw it, I had an impression.Mrs. Cen asked Qiniang to talk with sister Qiong and the others.Only four people are left here to listen to the play and talk.

Outside, it's hard to tell how deep it is.It's just talking about the customs and customs in the south, etc., these transactions and entertainment.

Cen Qiniang sat in the back, observing the fourth grandma of the Jin family from the corner of her eye.She knew this person very early, because the family has always regarded Qiong as a granddaughter, and the etiquette has never been broken.I also know that this fourth grandma has an excellent relationship with the aunt of the Cen family who married Shun Wangfu.My aunt did not return to Cen's house for three to five years, but in the mansion, no one said that my aunt was a noble person.Because of her aunt's presence in the palace, the Cen family's reputation in the south of the Yangtze River has grown even stronger.Even if she goes out to socialize as a boudoir daughter, she is mostly respected by these sisters, and there are people fawning on her everywhere.

The Cen family's own way of raising their daughters is that they are brought up like a son, such as a collection of classics and history, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, all that should be learned.It's not for gaining the reputation of a talented woman, but for being sensible and temperamental.It was precisely because of this that the girl from the Cen family became more and more sought after.She has always known the truth that there are people beyond others, but looking at this fourth grandma, she really feels that the Cen family's way of raising their daughter like a man is shameful.

Speaking of which, he is also in his 30s, the same age as my aunt.But sitting there, he stared blankly at how many years younger than his aunt.It is said that the 27-year-old woman is also believed.She sits there casually, laughing and chatting with everyone, but she will soon find out that in just a few words, she has become the center.A few words can pull everyone who is chatting over. If someone says something inappropriate, she will naturally change the topic after a few words.Even unresponsive people may not be aware of it.

This is a very powerful mother-in-law.

Before coming to the capital, my mother and the aunts in the family said: If you marry into the big house of the Jin family, if the big grandmother is around, the family will really worry.If it's four bedrooms, it's fine.This fourth grandma grew up in the border area, and there are no such strict rules.With our family's upbringing, there is no dissatisfaction.

But looking at it now, it's not the same thing at all.

Sister Qiong just watched the girl change from being generous to a little cramped, and felt a little satisfied.I haven't been nervous all the time, either because I think highly of myself, or I don't value this blind date very much.Both of these are not good things.

After watching the play, when she went back, Qiong was in a car with Lin Yutong, and she said in her ear: "...I'll take a good look at it. Whether it's appearance or family background, there is no big problem. This character, but It’s not easy to see it once you see her. I heard today that she will stay in Beijing for half a year, and I’ll hold a flower banquet or something later, invite her a few more times, and see.”

"Stay well..." Lin Yutong nodded to sister Qiong, "Zhiting is on errand now, and you are busy with her. There are a lot of entertainment..."

Sister Qiong squeezed her mother, "I also want to take care of this end, but my mother-in-law wouldn't be happy if I was only busy with my family's small life. My grandfather's illness, my old man rushed to the top. But it’s useless to rush up. It’s different to have a recommendation from my grandfather. The status of my grandfather can’t just be replaced by mere replacement. The old man heard that he sent several posts, and asked my father to push them. My mother-in-law Didn’t you put all your energy on me? The gods sent people to look at Brother Mao, and asked this and that..."

Here the mother and daughter were talking in a low voice, and on the other side in the carriage of Shun Wangfu, Mrs. Cen also held her niece's hand and asked, "What's wrong? Are you timid?"

Cen Qiniang shook her head, then nodded again, feeling unconfident for the first time, "...I'm afraid that someone will agree to this marriage for my aunt's sake."

Cen couldn't laugh or cry, "A person like her is someone who can sacrifice her own son's marriage to see whose face it is? Absolutely not! If she had been worried, she wouldn't have accepted it at the beginning. It's just because she didn't look at it now. In fact, it will definitely not hurt our Qiniang's face. She has a good way of seeing people. You will know when your sister-in-law meets her niece and son-in-law later. I don't know where to pick such a child. I heard that it is now in the Imperial Army Here, it looks like the future is boundless... The Jin family can't do it, and our Qiniang's marriage must fall on her." Then, he looked at Qiniang again, "I have roughly told you about the fourth room of the Jin family The adopted sons and daughters over there are very fancy. Let’s talk about that Dalang, many people are willing to marry their concubine daughters, but I dare not come to the door to talk about the bad ones. He is so outstanding, the eldest son of his family is rarely seen by outsiders, and no one who sees it will dislike him. He is dignified and stable, and he doesn't speak much, but he is extremely flexible. The master of our family wished he could put the boys in my family It would be good to send them there for two years of education. Therefore, in dealing with the other side in the future, these adopted sons and daughters must not be underestimated. No matter how bad it is, it is a common adversity. Qiniang, you can take care of the adversity People who love each other... such a family, people who marry into it will feel at ease."

Cen Qiniang was thoughtful, then nodded slightly, "Auntie, Qiniang knows."

After returning to the mansion, Cen Qiniang went down.Sister-in-law Cen took my sister-in-law's hand, "It's nothing else, it's just that the Bai family married before...is it really broken...Qiniang is still a girl, but we are people who have experienced it. This thing about men and women... the last What I'm afraid of is the resurgence of old feelings!"

Cen smiled wryly: "Qiniang is my niece, can I harm her?" Then she gave a general account of Bai's affairs in a low voice, "That's a fool who can't figure it out. I regret it I'm sorry... But what's the use of regretting it? Love has long been lost. Qiniang is a docile, generous and modest child. It's not just that she can't take care of things... and she can't do stupid things like Bai's The Jin family has another advantage that other families don't have. That is, the man's room is clean. Our girl is good at everything, but she is used to it in our house. I have never seen the power of my aunt. Family, is there no one in the man's room?"

This is true.

Mrs. Cen said: "There are those who are not married, but several girls in the room opened their faces, saying that they have no sons and daughters, so how can you know whether those girls are pregnant or not?"

Mrs. Cen said: "I have a chance, I will also meet that child..."

It should be.

Mrs. Cen just laughed, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, Mrs. Lin is a very particular person. As long as she is interested in our family's marriage, she will definitely send Brother Kun over in the next few days. Ask Qiniang to meet her by the way." !"

Going back in the evening, having dinner, Lin Yutong left brother Kun alone, and told about the Cen's family, "...in the past few days, a lot of people came to my house to deliver posts, and when I went out to meet people, they mostly asked about you. Marriage. Nowadays, there are many people who talk to you about marriage. But I discussed it with your father, and it is still the Cen's family. You still want to try it out. You can't get around the Cen's family on the way of civil servants. They The support that family can give you cannot be replaced by other families. Besides, that girl...seems to be nothing wrong. But is this a way of life? It is not so easy for a stranger to integrate into a family. Take your time Well! As long as there are no major character problems, after marriage, you can slowly teach..."

Looking at the eldest son with a stubble on his chin, listening with a calm expression, as if he was listening to other people's business, she was really upset.

Some things, the mother said, it seems that the effect is not very good.

She asked for help and looked at the fourth master who was teasing Sister Sui on the kang. The fourth master put the child in the kang, then came down, and patted Brother Kun on the shoulder, "Go! Go for a walk."

Sister Sui stood up on the kang table, and shouted at Brother Kun, "Father... Daddy..."

With two yells, Brother Kun's eyes could melt into water, and he went over and weighed Sister Sui, "Daddy will come back later and ask our sister to ride a big horse, okay?"

Sister Sui put her arms around Brother Kun's neck and did not let go, "Father...Daddy..."

I just learned it, and this child speaks prematurely.He called vaguely, but he did speak.I can't call her mother, but I can call him father.

Such a big child, adults can't resist it at all.

Lin Yutong put on the child's cloak, "Hold it!"

Brother Kun wrapped the child up, and then followed in his father's footsteps to leave.

Fourth Master looked back at the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Kun brother holding the child, and felt a little soft in his heart.He said Brother Kun, "Even now, I still want to say... You are also at fault for your marriage with Mrs. Bai. The problems between the couple have never been unilateral. Do you admit this?"

Brother Kun nodded: "Yes! My son...has also reflected on it. If she can be more patient and not blame blindly, she can trust me more than the Xu family. Maybe many things will be different..."

He saw Bai Shi when he was delivering medicine to Bai Shi, and he said so.

At that time, Mrs. Bai was crying, and his nose was sore.

Even if it is someone who hated, but that person was once the person next to her pillow, and seeing her lying there like that, everyone will be soft-hearted.

The fourth master asked, "You have to be sure, we will stop here with Mrs. Bai..."

"Yes!" Brother Kun held Sister Sui tightly in his arms, "She has no plans to go back to the Jin family either. I promise her that I will ask Sister Sui to go to Hui Ci Temple twice a year and ask her to see her." See. If you don’t admit it, just look at the child. When the child grows up, if you want to recognize the biological mother, I will talk about it. I also told her that I will marry again. If later people are merciful and sincere to Sister Sui, I will consider it. Record Sister Sui under the newcomer's name, as her own upbringing..."

The fourth master was noncommittal about this decision, and changed the subject to talk about the Cen family's marriage, "...This is not only a marriage with the Cen family, it also means a marriage with the Shun Palace. The future situation is hard to say, we have to make some preparations at any time , you have to understand this truth. But when you get along with other girls, don't always be wary... People have a long life, and according to the life of the old lady, you have four or fifty years to live in the future. She is in her mother's house I only stayed for more than ten years, but I will spend decades with you in the future. For the person who has been with you for decades, you spend a few years and teach her slowly. Don't treat her as you and Sister Sui You have to treat her as the flesh and bones of your body. If she makes a mistake, it is your fault. But if she hurts or feels uncomfortable, it means you hurt and feel uncomfortable. Yes. People say that husband and wife are one body, but it doesn’t just mean that we share weal and woe, and share good and bad. You have to understand this truth!”

Brother Kun blushed a little, but nodded.

He believes in this word, and his parents are the examples in front of him.Her father was from a noble family, but her mother was a well-known girl from a small family who grew up in a bitterly cold place on the border... But the two have been married for 20 years, and now, looking at her mother, she is full of her father shadow.Her tone of voice and way of doing things are more and more like her father.Sometimes, two people don't need to speak, just look at each other and understand everything.

Before their parents were married, they were also strangers.They are two strangers with very different backgrounds.But in the end, the two became one.Sometimes when his mother said something, he didn't know whether it was the mother's own meaning or the mother's conveying the father's meaning.

"I'll try!" Brother Kun put his arms around Sister Sui, this time, I calmed down and tried with my heart.Get to know someone, and then try to respect her like a big sister, tolerate her like a younger sister, and love her like Sui Er.Maybe...maybe...it will always be different.

That's all fourth master can mention.For things like marriage, there is nothing to refer to. It is up to two people to explore, "Then tomorrow, you go to the palace and send something to your Second Uncle Cheng..."

Yes!

Sister Sui fell asleep in her father's arms, and the father and son did not stay outside for long, and came back with the child.

After Brother Kun left, Lin Yutong handed the child to the nanny and asked her to take it to sleep, then asked Fourth Master: "Did you explain it?"

Tongtong was afraid that Brother Kun would have a shadow in his heart because of his first marriage.The fourth master knew this, "Worry about it. For children, no experience is in vain. Those who should learn to be good must learn to be good."

That's it!

Lin Yutong thought of something again, "In the past few days, Sanfang has been hesitant to talk to me. I'm afraid they want to bring my wife and Aunt Wu back..."

The two are still at Xu's house.

The fourth master nodded: "Xu Shizhong is waiting for me to come to the door. That's all! Brother Kun, you look at the arrangement, I will go to Xu's house tomorrow!"

Xu Shizhong watched his brother-in-law who was dressed as a wealthy and idle person being brought in. He rubbed his forehead and pointed to the stool, "...are you willing to come?"

Fourth master took advantage of the situation and sat down: "Is it a headache about military supplies?"

Xu Shizhong rubbed his forehead, "That's why I don't like civil servants. One speaks louder than the other, but when they scramble, one looks uglier than the other. Now I can't wait to celebrate with each other. I think they are out of their league. Call me I took a step back. But none of them stepped forward and asked what to do with the follow-up military supplies? Do you really think that the Tartars are just a piece of paper, and that your second brother is an ever-victorious general who can win every battle? Hmph!" Throw the booklet over, "Look! Look!"

The fourth master didn't look at it, took it and turned it in his hand, and put it back again, "I don't need to look at it to know what I'm talking about... We're just talking about military supplies... Who wants to take the lead and give this job to someone! You have to Let the family have someone who is ahead!"

"But what if I do a job for me? It will kill my second brother!" Xu Shizhong waved his hand, "You think too simply."

"It's because you have too much prejudice against civil servants." The fourth master clicked the book, "If this person can't do it, someone who is watching his position can do it. You throw a bait over there, and a lot of problems can be solved , why do you have to do it yourself?”

It's true that the ass decides the head.Although Xu Shizhong has great power in his hands, what is missing is the means that an emperor should have.

Fourth Master made the words so clear that he still hesitated.

Indecision is the worst of the taboos.

The fourth master said, "Go into the palace and ask Li Zhao. He has the same thoughts as you about the battle against Liaodong. He won't give you any attention on this matter." Then he stood up, "I took my wife back."

Xu Shizhong waved his hand, with a nonchalant expression, "If you want to pick it up, you can pick it up! But Sister Ying probably has to follow.

He remained calm, "Let's ask the He family to do it first. If the He family can't do it, there will be someone who can do it. Let's do it!" Then he looked at Xu Shizhong, "Did Yi'an give you an idea?"

Xu Shizhong shook his head, "It's Wu An! It's a pity to keep him idle."

After Xu Shizhong went out, Li Zhaocai said to Wen with a cold face, "It means... the fourth brother uses the way of balance, the art of the emperor."

Emperor's technique?

Xu Shinian looked at the little eunuch, "Your Majesty is really talking about Fourth Master Jin?"

The little eunuch nodded hurriedly: "... yes... I heard it with my own ears!"

Xu Shinian turned around with a smile on his face...
