A new journey of accumulating wealth
Chapter 229 Qingping Years 3 in 1
The fourth master and Tongtong didn't pay much attention to whether Li Zhao was rewarded or not.Instead, the old lady asked twice, and the fourth master said, "What about you, do you want him to reward you? Or don't you want him to reward you?"
The old lady sighed: "...I thought that the emperor would not be so stupid!"
If he wasn't stupid, why did the country of the Great Zhou become like this.
Lin Yutong privately said to the fourth master: "A prince like Li Zhao... If this is under the knees of our old man, you say he will be beaten eight times a day... How dare you miss the throne, and want to pass the throne to him... ..."
It means Huang Ama!
Fourth master's main sigh is: "One person, one life! There are some people who sit on the seat, and they can take it with their hands. If you don't want it, you have to give it. If you don't deserve it, you can't do it. There is no one who competes! But there are some people, I will suffer!"
This is self-pity.
Lin Yutong was so distressed that he wanted to pat his head.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Fourth Master knew what she wanted to do. There were still juniors in the room, so he stood up resolutely, and took a careful look at Sister Xuan who was picking silk thread outside to make a bellyband for Sister Sui. Seeing that she didn't seem to be looking this way, she winked at Tongtong and asked, "The Cen's family is leaving tomorrow, are everything ready? We have to go and deliver tomorrow..."
Lin Yutong asked him to tell him, "Not only did I clean up the Cen's family, but I also cleaned up for Brother Kun, and asked him to escort them back. By the way, I asked the serious old father-in-law and mother-in-law to check on him. It’s better to be Bian! I packed a lot of things for Qilang and Shishilang, and sent them back with the boat.”
This is more appropriate.
The fourth master said: "Then you've been called, don't hurry back, it's better to spend more time in the south."
Lin Yutong also meant the same thing, "...Let's make the marriage tight and put it in the autumn. After this trip, I guess there will be some tidying up there, and the person who will send the dowry to the capital should also leave. Ask him to come back, and there will be someone on the way." Take care. It’s hot and it’s not convenient to go on the road. Fortunately, if you go back after summer, you can come back in time to get married.”
appropriate.
In the evening, I called Brother Kun over and explained the situation in detail.
Lin Yutong gave her the gift list again, "There are many Cen families, and each house has its own situation. The gifts for each house are divided into alleys. The seals on them are also written in detail..."
Brother Kun looked at it one by one, and really prepared suitable things for the newborn and the child who might be born.
Fourth Master was also worried about Brother Kun's first long trip, "...I don't have anything to discuss. Ask Da Lang to follow you around..."
So how?No one will follow you when you go out?
"I'm in the capital, who can do anything to me?" Fourth Master didn't give him a chance to refute, "Just listen to the arrangement. By the way, I also ask him to follow to learn more..."
Sister Xuan laughed, "I must have brought Brother Dalang to show people."
That's what Lin Yutong meant. Mrs. Cen said that there was a girl in a side branch of her natal family. Both parents of that girl died, and she followed her grandparents.The grandparents adopted an heir from the clan, but this is not the girl's real uncle and aunt, so they don't think about the child.First, Uncle Cen fell in love with Da Lang, so he went back and talked about it.Mrs. Cen asked Mrs. Cen about Da Lang's situation.Sister-in-law Cen thinks it is very good, she is a real person and has a backer.There is a family business, no worries about food and clothing.It's not someone who would dislike the child's fate.There are many brothers and sisters who help, and the parents-in-law above will not embarrass the daughter-in-law of the adopted son. The more I think about it, the more suitable it is.
This is better than those girls from other families who climbed outside.
She told Brother Kun, "If you take him there just to see him, he's a stubborn donkey. He definitely doesn't want to leave home, and he doesn't want to go. You just say he's your companion. When he gets on the boat, he won't be able to leave. , you explain to him in detail."
That's a big deal!
In a hurry, they sent the Cen family and the two children to the pier.
On the way back, Lin Yutong and Cen were in a carriage.Cen suppressed her voice and said in a low voice to Lin Yutong: "...I saw you today, let me tell you a word. The one in the palace this year said that it is going to have a big birthday. Yesterday, the princes and princesses of several clans , all went to the mansion to meet the prince. The birthday of the person in front of me, in previous years, was a palace banquet held in the palace. That is to say, the clansmen entered the palace to be lively and lively, like ministers, just to see if they are decent There are also those who don't... It just depends on that person's mood. This year, I originally thought it would be the same, but I also thought that my family might have to go to the south with my brother and sister-in-law. The one at home..."
Lin Yutong expressed understanding that for this kind of business, every year, those merchants prepared several copies in different ways. In fact, they said they asked Li Cheng to come, which was to fool the above.In fact, the people below are more attentive than the people above. As long as they say it is what the above wants, the bottom can prepare three or five things just for spare.More often than not, Li Cheng went over to make a pick, and then came back.It doesn't matter who you put on errands.
Otherwise, I wouldn't go shopping just as the day is approaching.
How much and what quality to buy has to be done according to the regulations of the palace.Small business is the procurement method of small business, and large business is the procurement method of large business.
"Supposedly this year shouldn't be a big deal." Lin Yutong took advantage of the situation and said this.
But that's not it.Mrs. Cen snapped her fingers, "There is going to be a war outside, and I used to say that the treasury was short of money. Now His Majesty is like this, and the burden is on Xu Shizhong. Everyone is waiting to see Xu Shizhong's jokes... But according to the age To put it bluntly speaking, this is inappropriate. Before, our female relatives all donated silver, but now? During the war, His Majesty has a birthday party... It has to be done! The eldest princesses of the clan always go to the palace The Qin who went to the house... That's what he said. He went to the mansion yesterday, and heard from our family that the prince was very angry. He also took a few princesses, but it's a shame, isn't it? Today, the prince has gone to the palace. It's hard to say whether he can be persuaded. Our family said that his temper is a bit left-handed now, and he can't be persuaded by other idlers..."
No matter how you look at it, it's inappropriate for Li Zhao to have a grand birthday.
Shun Wang went to persuade him, and according to Cen's wishes, everyone in Shun Wang's mansion felt that it would not work.Because Shun Wang just celebrated his birthday, and the scale is not small.You said that you, a prince, can celebrate his birthday, but his majesty can't celebrate his birthday.
Of course, King Shun celebrated his birthday with some political purposes.For example, many people who are not convenient to meet, it is said that they met on that day, everyone is looking for balance at a certain point, and King Shun just built a platform for everyone.Besides, King Shun is already in his sixtieth year, and based on the current average age, he is already considered a very old man.It is a birthday for a long-lived old man. He is not a political figure with special significance. Is it also a matter of filial piety by his children and grandchildren?
Reasonable people don't compare like this.But the person who wants to make trouble insists on such a comparison, what can you do with him?
Besides, this person is still Li Zhao.
Cen smiled at Lin Yutong, with a bit of embarrassment, "It is estimated that the prince will be beaten back today."
The implication is that even Prince Shun can't persuade him, so maybe someone has to persuade him.
If he wants to invite Xu Shizhong, then Li Cheng can just go and tell fourth master directly, why bother asking Cen to tell him?
Lin Yutong understood that what Shun Wangfu meant was to ask him to go into the palace and have a good talk with Wen Shi.It is best to ask Wen Shi to persuade Li Zhao.
She nodded, "I'll pass the sign to the palace when I get back today."
Cen breathed a sigh of relief, "...it's difficult for everyone to have such a person sitting on it."
The clan and the emperor are tied together. If the emperor is not wise, and the people below turn against the emperor, it is against the clan.Once there is no Da Zhou, who in the Li family can live alone?
The Jin family provided money and people to protect the country of Da Zhou, but in the end, let alone a reward, there was not even a commendation.Now, when something like this happened, the Jin family had to be asked to mediate.No need for others to say anything, Cen himself panicked with shame.
Sure enough, when the carriage arrived halfway, it ran into a person sent by Prince Shun's mansion, who was looking for Li Cheng and his wife, and told them not to delay, and to return to the mansion quickly.Because the prince was carried out of the palace.
Li Cheng was taken aback, "Beating?"
This is too much!
"No!" The visitor said, "It is said that he has knelt for a long time... fainted!"
Li Cheng's expression changed, and he got out of the carriage and rode away quickly.Cen also changed to a light carriage and left quickly.
Fourth Master and Lin Yutong were not idle, Fourth Master went directly to Xu Shizhong, Lin Yutong first asked someone to pass a sign to Concubine Wen Gui in the palace, please see him.According to Lin Yutong's estimation, Wen Shi had to ask himself to go as soon as he received the sign.She was not idle either, she hurriedly washed and changed her clothes, and then she cleaned up neatly, and someone came from the palace, asking Lin Yutong to come into the palace.
In summer, the imperial palace is surrounded by lush greenery.But the weeds are too thick and not taken care of in time, and it looks more desolate than other times.
This time, Wen did not meet in the palace, but waited in a garden in the palace.There are roses all around, not famous products.She stood under the rose trellis, waiting for Lin Yutong.As soon as Lin Yutong came to her, she stretched out her hand to prevent her from saluting, "The roses are grown by the little maids in the palace. If it weren't for them, there wouldn't even be a place to enjoy the scenery. It's the coolest place here. Live here and talk."
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was something in his words.Her majestic concubine actually felt that it was the coolest place under the rose arbor. What did this mean? It meant that the supply in the palace could not keep up.For example, after summer, there is no supply of ice that should be there.
With this premise, then this big birthday celebration is not just a big birthday event, but an excuse to vent dissatisfaction.
Lin Yutong asked, "I haven't heard anything from Qiong and Zhiting about the purchases in the palace."
Wen applauded in her heart, she just mentioned a little, and the other party understood everything.Sometimes she really doesn't know how Lin Yutong, a woman who has never been in contact with the court, can understand the inside of it so clearly.
What Lin Yutong didn't understand was that the internal affairs of the palace were managed by a special yamen.He Zhiting was arranged in a yamen like this to take care of the prince in the palace and the He family's empress, but if there were other things here, it was impossible for his son-in-law not to tell the fourth master.Unless, He Zhiting didn't know anything about it.In other words, his tentacles can't be stretched that long yet.
Then Wen said: "That's why I said... there is something going on here!" Her voice dropped, "Li Zhao is indeed not a wise gentleman, but he insisted on doing things that he knew would offend everyone. There is some reason. Unfortunately, it happened so suddenly that I haven't figured out where the edge is."
Lin Yutong understood Wen's meaning, she meant that Li Zhao used this unwise method as a last resort.
She frowned, even if something happened, shouldn't Li Zhao discuss it with Xu Shizhong?
Wen Shi seemed to understand Lin Yutong's thoughts, "The two had a quarrel before, and it was very unpleasant. I'm afraid Xu Shizhong will not enter the palace easily...except for the Dachaohui..."
No wonder!
Without Xu Shizhong, Li Zhao has no one to use.The relationship between these two people is really... very special.
Lin Yutong nodded, "Then I know the reason." Then he got up and said goodbye, "I'll go back first, I'm still waiting for news at home."
Wen didn't want to stay longer, so he just asked, "I heard that Brother Kun's marriage is settled? It's a girl from the Cen family."
Yes!
Wen's face was somewhat joyful, "That's good! Brother Kun is a gentleman and deserves a better girl."
Lin Yutong was noncommittal, blessed her body, not mentioning Brother Shen and Wen Lan'er she wanted to know, "Young lady stay a step!"
Wen could only stop, "Ask someone to take you out, maybe a night cat and wild dog will appear somewhere in this palace, and scare you again."
Too!The palace looks like this, if Li Zhao really wants to be extravagant, the palace should at least be repaired briefly.But he never mentioned it.
With such thoughts in mind, he left the palace and returned home, but the fourth master hadn't come back yet.
Sitting in front of Xu Shizhong at this time, he heard Xu Shizhong say: "...don't worry about it, just do what you love. There is a fixed amount for the clan's money every year, the income of the Huangzhuang, etc. These money can't enter the national treasury. The fat one is still the clan. Before the preparations for armaments, did you hear that the clan said that they were willing to pay a penny? I heard that Prince Shun asked the clan men several times to talk about this matter, and he suggested it. But other people in the clan No one is happy. The purchase of the palace is managed by Prince Shun's Mansion, but entering and exiting are two different things..."
Um!This is the same with accountants and cashiers.
Prince Shun's Mansion is regarded as an accountant who manages the finances, but the cashier is someone else.
"Kang Kang?" Fourth Master paused with the hand holding the teacup: King Kang is Li Zhao's real brother.
Xu Shizhong raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then nodded, "Yes! This...it was almost... If your second brother and I hadn't grabbed the handle of King Kang from his brother-in-law, then the one sitting on the throne would definitely not be... Li Zhao." As he spoke, he even smiled mockingly, "King Kang called someone to meet me a few days ago...he came to see my attitude. He wanted to hire Yingying for the crown prince, but I stopped him... ..."
The wolf's ambition is clearly revealed!
Now it is here who only want to stabilize and unify the outside world.But the inside of the royal room was calculated!Some people wanted to push Li Zhao down and go up by themselves.
The fourth master is too lazy to listen anymore, what is being consumed is the money within the clan, and he can do whatever he likes.
He went back and explained the matter to Tongtong, and Tongtong scolded, "This is because the child was thrown away, but the placenta was raised."
What the hell!
After scolding, I feel that this is normal. Looking through the history books, there are such people everywhere. Which dynasty in the past did not have it?
As a result, the couple here scolded Kang Wang's mansion. Within two days, sister Qiong and her son came to the door with their children.
The fourth master went to the front to talk with the son-in-law, and Sister Qiong said anxiously: "The old man of our family went to pay homage to the ancestral temple for His Majesty. Guess what? My mother-in-law actually betrothed my sister-in-law to Prince Kang!"
what?
It's only been a few days?
"Have you changed the sticker?" Lin Yutong asked.
"It's changed! It was changed yesterday. Mr. Xiang was on duty yesterday and didn't come back at night. I live outside, so I don't know much about it. Today, Mr. Xiang's colleagues came back from Jinkou with two barrels of sea fish, which is very rare. I kept two tails and sent two to my second sister, and I gave half of the rest to the He family, and then said that I would bring them back to our family after dinner. But the person I sent said when they came back, Yesterday, I got engaged to a young lady at home, and it was changed. When I asked which lady and which family I decided to marry, I realized that it was my sister-in-law who was engaged to Prince Kang. That's right, who knew that Xianggong's face changed, and he was about to come over without saying anything, so I followed here..."
"Where's your father-in-law?" Lin Yutong asked Sister Qiong, "The depth of the water here. Women don't know the stakes in it. Doesn't it mean that he, a big man, doesn't know..."
Sister Qiong was very embarrassed, "...it's not clear yet... my husband has already asked someone to inquire..."
It can be seen that this father is also unreliable, otherwise the first feeling of the son knowing this is to come to see the father-in-law, not to discuss with the father.
But what would fourth master say about this?
He Zhiting showed a bit of coldness on his face, "The main thing in the palace is not to overdo it, and I have never cared much about it. The royal affairs are even more so... In that place, I always remember the teachings of my father-in-law, and I can talk about things without saying a word." Don't talk. Kang Wang holds the key and manages the private treasury, and no one else can get in. No one wants to get involved in it. I have known since the beginning of ice supply this year that something bad is going to happen. It was said that the weather was getting warmer and some ingredients could not be kept. I wanted to put them in the small ice cellar of the imperial dining room to store the ingredients. Occasionally, the masters wanted to eat an ice bowl. As a result, Kang Wang happened to be there that day. Now, the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room scolded the eunuch, saying that His Majesty is in good health, but the servants below did not want to serve the master with food that is good for the body, but only followed the master's preferences... This request was rejected Since then, the food in the palace has been delivered fresh in the middle of the night. Anyway, there are not many masters, so I can handle it. But this day is hot, and there is no ice in the classroom... I mentioned it to my father earlier. Once, it was said that he was afraid that the prince would not be able to bear it, so the He family honored the money, and I handled all the money, bought ice and sent it in..."
There was a lot of miscellaneous talk, and the fourth master roughly extracted the meaning from the uncle's words, that is, Kang Wang might have stolen a lot from the royal private treasury.Even pocketed, there might not even be ice in the ice cellar.
He jumped up and down like this because he knew that the fire could not be wrapped in paper, and if he didn't charge forward, he would die in the end.
Fourth master asked him: "Then what do you want to do?"
He Zhiting said in a low voice: "This marriage can't be done... If you want to completely break it off, you have to be ruthless. Kang Wang's mansion is full of private pockets, guarding and stealing, you have to grasp the handle and pull it out completely."
Fourth Master just laughed, then shook his head, "It's late!"
late?
what a late!
"Do you think Kang Wang is such a brainless person?" Fourth Master shook his head, "You can decide for yourself whether this marriage will work out. But you have no chance to deal with Kang Wang."
why?
Fourth Master pointed to the palace, "If you guessed correctly, King Kang is already in the palace right now."
what?
He Zhiting hadn't finished speaking when someone came outside, and indeed it was the news from Lu Liuyao that King Kang had entered the palace.
why?
The fourth master said: "Why? When Kang Wang realized that his ambitions could not be realized and no one could tolerate him, he had to save himself. How to save himself? He had to find someone who could use him and had to use him Coincidentally, that His Majesty and Xu Shizhong happened to be somewhat unhappy, so the appearance of King Kang was the best choice. King Kang just asked, why didn't he accept it? As for the crime you mentioned, even if there is evidence How about it? On a big scale, it’s really a big deal. But on a small scale, it’s nothing more than the royal family’s own business. If the elder brother used the younger brother’s money, if the younger brother doesn’t hold it accountable, if others hold on to it, then just meddle in their own business. Therefore, there is no benefit to being close, but the disadvantage is not as great as you think. Don't panic when something happens. People in this world are enemies today and friends tomorrow. Don't mess around. Measured."
He Zhiting got up, it should be respectful.
The fourth master waved his hand, "Go! Sister Liuqiong and the child will live here first, you just go back and have a look..."
Yes!
Sister Qiong knew that it was nothing serious, so she really stayed here with peace of mind.She really likes living in her mother's house, she doesn't have to worry about anything, she just feels that everything goes well.
Sister Xuan laughed, "Everything is fine, but I can't see my eldest brother-in-law."
Lin Yutong shook his head, "Your elder brother-in-law will definitely come over tonight..."
It's no wonder that the couple in the He family didn't quarrel. With this quarrel, is the son trying to persuade him or not?Persuasion, I think being a mother really should teach me a lesson.Don't persuade it, it's outrageous, let the servants read the joke.Instead of being in a dilemma, it is better to hide in Yue's house.The He family is also embarrassed to come to the door of the Jin family, let the in-laws watch the joke.
It was exactly as the fourth master had predicted. Kang Wang took the initiative to find Li Zhao, crying bitterly, saying that the sons in the family were all prodigal sons, owed much money outside, and they were young but did not learn well. There was really no other way, so the private library was used.But don't worry, I will definitely return it to you in the future, and in the future, I will only have you as my leader, Zhan Yunyun.
Li Zhao said that as long as you are obedient, you will forget the past and so on.What the two brothers said is quite speculative!
Kang Wang said, "...Your Majesty, I think your decision to live a long life is really wise..." Originally, this move directly pushed Kang Wang to the cusp of the storm. It became a good thing again, "Think about it, everyone only knows that there is Xu Shizhong, there is a congratulatory minister, and there is a Jin family who is loyal and dedicated to the royal family of our Li family... But in fact, our own psychology You know, these great loyal ministers are all hiding traitors in their hearts. The traitor is like loyalty! For a long time, who still remembers that you are His Majesty, and the world of this Great Zhou belongs to our Li family. This longevity, the minister said, not only to It needs to be done, and it needs to be done in a big way, and it needs to be done in a bigger way, so that everyone in the world knows who owns the world. It is impossible not to remind. Shun Wangshu should have been the pillar of the clan, but now, it is wise and safe. , is unreliable at all. Besides, he is getting older and less courageous. After all, he is far away from our brothers, and his closeness is not so tight. He does not handle it, but the minister will handle it. You are satisfied..."
This is the first thing Kang Wang has asked for since he surrendered, and you have to ask him to do it.Otherwise, he will think that you do not accept him.
Li Zhao said, "It's enough to make sense of it. We don't know how much the Jin family has hidden because there is a war ahead. We still need to save money and use it where it matters most."
Kang Wang repeatedly responded and withdrew respectfully.But as soon as he came out, he couldn't hide the coldness in his eyes, he turned around and smiled mockingly: Save money?To be a wise man? !
Ah!
Wen saw Kang Wang's expression through the window, she walked away slowly and stood in the shadows.
Will Kang Wang plan for Li Zhao wholeheartedly?
Li Zhao's reputation is bad, is it a bad thing for him?
She raised her foot and wanted to tell Li Zhao about it, but she stopped when she reached the entrance of the side hall.
to say?Say... what can I say?Li Zhao wouldn't listen to advice, she had to plan for the future.Tied to Li Zhao, sooner or later the ship will sink.
She felt that it was necessary to invite the Queen back.There must be a battle between her and the queen, but before that, it can't be said...the two have the same goal.
Thinking of this, she stepped back little by little, sat at the table, rubbed the ink, and picked up the pen.I wrote two pages, sealed them, and called someone, "Send it to the queen!"
Lin Yutong has not been out of the house recently, but the news is very well-informed.Don't look at anything else, just know what's going on outside from Sister Qiong's side.Now it's sister Qiong's in-laws who are fighting, and then the eldest son-in-law is staying at Yue's house temporarily, and he is not working for the time being, hiding here to play chess with fourth master.Then the old man of the He family returned to Beijing and went directly to Kang Wang's mansion. He thought he was going to make a big fuss, but it turned out not to be.The He family recognized the marriage.
The eldest son-in-law went back to ask about this matter, and then sister-in-law Qiong said: "...my sister-in-law was spoiled by my mother-in-law. It's embarrassing to spread this story... She wanted to cling to a high-ranking family, but she secretly paid someone Qu... I was afraid that they were approaching on purpose, so she took advantage of the situation. Prince Kang's mansion didn't make a fuss and came to ask for a marriage, but the He family owed him a favor..."
There is no reason to go.
When it comes to this point, it's the same whether the marriage is successful or not.Mr. He didn't send his granddaughter directly to the nunnery to have her hair cut and become a sister-in-law. That was the greatest kindness to this girl.As for after getting married... After getting married, will the position of the He family be determined?That's absolutely not!
Therefore, the matter of the He family being tricked by Prince Kang's mansion, just wait and see, it will still be leaked intentionally or unintentionally, and people need to know how helpless the He family is.
But this matter has no effect on the overall situation.
The only thing that changed because of this was that Kang Wang recovered from the Jedi and trembled.The Longevity Festival was organized with one heart and one mind.
Where does the silver come from?
There are plenty of merchants!
Lu Liuyao sat in the fourth master's study, "This King Kang is so bold! If you pay 5 taels of silver, you will be able to guarantee that the merchant woman will be a noble person in the palace. If you pay 10 taels of silver, you will be guaranteed that the merchant woman will be the eldest prince's sidekick." Concubine. In the past few days, the road in front of Kang Wang's gate can be blocked by patting and seeing Kang Wang's chariots and horses. How can this go on?"
But this kind of thing, one is willing, one is willing, who can stop it.
The only thing to worry about is that this Longevity Festival, the Hou Mansion will have something to offer.
The Longevity Festival is just around the corner, and the fourth master sent all the things Tongtong prepared, such as the copied Buddhist scriptures, to Xu's family and asked Xu Shizhong to present them on his behalf.As for the Jin family, close the door and thank you!
Absolutely not going to the palace banquet.
First, Jin Kuang, who was Lord Hou, fell ill and couldn't even get out of bed or speak.
Second, as the eldest son, Kim Boyi is a beauty lamp. Isn't it hot now, so he has heat stroke and can't get up.
The others, except for the second son Jin who is fighting, have no official titles, so there is no need to enter the palace.What's more, from the old lady to the one-year-old children in the Jin family, they all prayed for the second child in front of them at home.This is an injustice made before the Buddha, and it will take seven to seven 49 days, and it must not be interrupted.
Hidden a neat.
Li Zhao didn't know how big the birthday banquet was, but thought it was bigger than in previous years, apart from the clan, there were first- and second-rank officials in the court.
Who knew that Kang Wang would startle everyone who could be shocked.
What kind of theater troupe, juggling troupe, all kinds of gold, silver, jade, antique calligraphy and paintings were brought to the palace in a very luxurious manner.
Not only Li Zhao's side, but also the queen's side, Wen's side, and the favored and unfavored concubines hiding in the corners all benefited from others.
Kang Wang even thoughtfully prepared birthday gifts for the eldest prince and the little princess, which really couldn't be more appropriate.
Li Zhao didn't know about these things, and he was still holding the booklet, thinking about giving face to whom.Wen Shi was right next to him, and he discussed with Wen Shi, "Yi Anyuan, don't bother him. But I have to show respect to the fourth son, and tell him to bring his wife and a few children into the palace. His eldest brother I know that when the wind blows, it will fall. If it is hot today and the sun is poisonous, it will not make him suffer.”
Wen pushed, "The Jin family can't come! The old lady had a dream... The Jin family is praying at home..."
The smile on Li Zhao's face faded a bit, and only when he had a bad dream would he pray at home.This kind of thing, I would rather believe in its existence than in its non-existence.He said lightly, "That's all..." and skipped Jin's house.
On the exact day, Li Zhao was sitting on a newly made dragon chair.This dragon chair can be carried. It is made of copper and covered with a layer of gold.But this kind of high majesty has really been missing for a long time.
Li Zhaojin was in a good mood, and praised King Kang, "This time the errand was handled well."
In the main hall, Shan shouted Long live, which made him feel a little high-spirited.
After the monarchs and ministers have passed the ceremony, send birthday gifts one by one.The gifts from the prince and princess are all in Li Zhao's heart.Three children, the older one is paralyzed, and the two younger ones are still not weaned.Who ran this thing.
I feel more and more that Kang Wang is considerate.
When he saw the congratulatory gifts from Xu Shizhong and the He family, he lost all interest.Xu Shizhong gave him a good book that was said to be out of print, which recorded the deeds of all the wise emperors in history, regardless of whether the deeds were true or false, but sending it out at this time, the meaning of this exhortation is self-evident.
When they arrived at the He family, the He family gave them a copy of the quotations from the late emperor, which was copied by He Xiang himself.The words that the late emperor said, the instructions he made, and many words that taught others were transcribed.What is this for?This is using the hands of the first emperor to teach me, right?
After seeing the congratulatory gift from the Jin family handed over by Xu Shizhong, Li Zhao's temper could hardly be suppressed.
Buddhist scriptures?
What's the meaning?Tell me to cultivate my body and mind.
What do you want?
If it wasn't for Kang Wang and Wen's pulling him, he would have thrown these things in the faces of Xu Shizhong and He Xiang on the spot.
Kang Wang interrupted, "He is actually He Xiang. I usually dream of my father, and I always have a smile in front of my eyes. When I think of my father's teachings, my clothes are often wet with tears. Thinking about using these words to teach my children and grandchildren, I can't do anything." It's broken, I don't know where to start. Mr. He is a good gift! Your Majesty, this book has to be copied by Yunchen. In the future, it will definitely be taught to future generations."
The embarrassing atmosphere was turned around.
Li Zhao also calmed down his anger, and smiled, "I just heard that your two families have become in-laws. Looking at it now, you seem to have a good understanding."
King Kang answered: "That's not true! I've been busy with my boy's marriage recently. Speaking of which, the Empress also said that she will choose a concubine for the eldest prince this year..." He laughed loudly, "Remembering that I was with Your Majesty How old are you compared to wrestling in the martial arts arena, and now you have to worry about your children and grandchildren's marriage." After speaking, his voice dropped, "I'm afraid you don't know, this time, the opportunity to continue to work on errands is really impressive. There are quite a few girls who have been born well, regardless of their origin, it is good to choose to be side concubines by their side."
Li Zhao nodded, "You are their uncle, so you should be worried. If you think it's good, call the noble concubine... and the queen to see it, and just send it in. The only thing I am worried about is that the child's concubine is not good. select……"
Xu Shinian added a sentence on the sidelines, "I, as a queen mother, have been paying attention to the candidates for the eldest concubine. I raised him for a while, and I always want to find a good one. I don't know about other people's family." , but I know a family whose family background is worthy, their family background is worthy, and their character is also worthy. Moreover, they will definitely be liked by the imperial concubine..."
Wen Shi had a bad premonition in his heart.
Li Zhao frowned, just about to stop him.But I heard Kang Wang ask: "Whose child, I never thought of it?"
The people in the hall were quiet, listening with their ears pricked up.
The queen covered her mouth and smiled, "Who else is there? The Jin family is it! The girl in the fourth room of the Jin family... You say, is it because the family is not worthy, or the family background is not worthy, whether the character is good or bad... Just look at Mr. Jin, there is nothing unbelievable..."
"Empress!" Xu Shizhong stood up slowly, bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, you drank a few more glasses, I'm afraid you are too strong to drink. The girl from the Jin family is already married, but you don't know about it!"
"Exactly!" Wen Shi also stood up, "Just because there is a war ahead and the Jin family is praying for blessings, it's just that they didn't make a fuss. Empress Empress, this candidate is definitely not a candidate!"
Li Zhao looked at Xu Shizhong, looked at Wen Shi, chuckled lightly, and slowly opened his mouth...
The old lady sighed: "...I thought that the emperor would not be so stupid!"
If he wasn't stupid, why did the country of the Great Zhou become like this.
Lin Yutong privately said to the fourth master: "A prince like Li Zhao... If this is under the knees of our old man, you say he will be beaten eight times a day... How dare you miss the throne, and want to pass the throne to him... ..."
It means Huang Ama!
Fourth master's main sigh is: "One person, one life! There are some people who sit on the seat, and they can take it with their hands. If you don't want it, you have to give it. If you don't deserve it, you can't do it. There is no one who competes! But there are some people, I will suffer!"
This is self-pity.
Lin Yutong was so distressed that he wanted to pat his head.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Fourth Master knew what she wanted to do. There were still juniors in the room, so he stood up resolutely, and took a careful look at Sister Xuan who was picking silk thread outside to make a bellyband for Sister Sui. Seeing that she didn't seem to be looking this way, she winked at Tongtong and asked, "The Cen's family is leaving tomorrow, are everything ready? We have to go and deliver tomorrow..."
Lin Yutong asked him to tell him, "Not only did I clean up the Cen's family, but I also cleaned up for Brother Kun, and asked him to escort them back. By the way, I asked the serious old father-in-law and mother-in-law to check on him. It’s better to be Bian! I packed a lot of things for Qilang and Shishilang, and sent them back with the boat.”
This is more appropriate.
The fourth master said: "Then you've been called, don't hurry back, it's better to spend more time in the south."
Lin Yutong also meant the same thing, "...Let's make the marriage tight and put it in the autumn. After this trip, I guess there will be some tidying up there, and the person who will send the dowry to the capital should also leave. Ask him to come back, and there will be someone on the way." Take care. It’s hot and it’s not convenient to go on the road. Fortunately, if you go back after summer, you can come back in time to get married.”
appropriate.
In the evening, I called Brother Kun over and explained the situation in detail.
Lin Yutong gave her the gift list again, "There are many Cen families, and each house has its own situation. The gifts for each house are divided into alleys. The seals on them are also written in detail..."
Brother Kun looked at it one by one, and really prepared suitable things for the newborn and the child who might be born.
Fourth Master was also worried about Brother Kun's first long trip, "...I don't have anything to discuss. Ask Da Lang to follow you around..."
So how?No one will follow you when you go out?
"I'm in the capital, who can do anything to me?" Fourth Master didn't give him a chance to refute, "Just listen to the arrangement. By the way, I also ask him to follow to learn more..."
Sister Xuan laughed, "I must have brought Brother Dalang to show people."
That's what Lin Yutong meant. Mrs. Cen said that there was a girl in a side branch of her natal family. Both parents of that girl died, and she followed her grandparents.The grandparents adopted an heir from the clan, but this is not the girl's real uncle and aunt, so they don't think about the child.First, Uncle Cen fell in love with Da Lang, so he went back and talked about it.Mrs. Cen asked Mrs. Cen about Da Lang's situation.Sister-in-law Cen thinks it is very good, she is a real person and has a backer.There is a family business, no worries about food and clothing.It's not someone who would dislike the child's fate.There are many brothers and sisters who help, and the parents-in-law above will not embarrass the daughter-in-law of the adopted son. The more I think about it, the more suitable it is.
This is better than those girls from other families who climbed outside.
She told Brother Kun, "If you take him there just to see him, he's a stubborn donkey. He definitely doesn't want to leave home, and he doesn't want to go. You just say he's your companion. When he gets on the boat, he won't be able to leave. , you explain to him in detail."
That's a big deal!
In a hurry, they sent the Cen family and the two children to the pier.
On the way back, Lin Yutong and Cen were in a carriage.Cen suppressed her voice and said in a low voice to Lin Yutong: "...I saw you today, let me tell you a word. The one in the palace this year said that it is going to have a big birthday. Yesterday, the princes and princesses of several clans , all went to the mansion to meet the prince. The birthday of the person in front of me, in previous years, was a palace banquet held in the palace. That is to say, the clansmen entered the palace to be lively and lively, like ministers, just to see if they are decent There are also those who don't... It just depends on that person's mood. This year, I originally thought it would be the same, but I also thought that my family might have to go to the south with my brother and sister-in-law. The one at home..."
Lin Yutong expressed understanding that for this kind of business, every year, those merchants prepared several copies in different ways. In fact, they said they asked Li Cheng to come, which was to fool the above.In fact, the people below are more attentive than the people above. As long as they say it is what the above wants, the bottom can prepare three or five things just for spare.More often than not, Li Cheng went over to make a pick, and then came back.It doesn't matter who you put on errands.
Otherwise, I wouldn't go shopping just as the day is approaching.
How much and what quality to buy has to be done according to the regulations of the palace.Small business is the procurement method of small business, and large business is the procurement method of large business.
"Supposedly this year shouldn't be a big deal." Lin Yutong took advantage of the situation and said this.
But that's not it.Mrs. Cen snapped her fingers, "There is going to be a war outside, and I used to say that the treasury was short of money. Now His Majesty is like this, and the burden is on Xu Shizhong. Everyone is waiting to see Xu Shizhong's jokes... But according to the age To put it bluntly speaking, this is inappropriate. Before, our female relatives all donated silver, but now? During the war, His Majesty has a birthday party... It has to be done! The eldest princesses of the clan always go to the palace The Qin who went to the house... That's what he said. He went to the mansion yesterday, and heard from our family that the prince was very angry. He also took a few princesses, but it's a shame, isn't it? Today, the prince has gone to the palace. It's hard to say whether he can be persuaded. Our family said that his temper is a bit left-handed now, and he can't be persuaded by other idlers..."
No matter how you look at it, it's inappropriate for Li Zhao to have a grand birthday.
Shun Wang went to persuade him, and according to Cen's wishes, everyone in Shun Wang's mansion felt that it would not work.Because Shun Wang just celebrated his birthday, and the scale is not small.You said that you, a prince, can celebrate his birthday, but his majesty can't celebrate his birthday.
Of course, King Shun celebrated his birthday with some political purposes.For example, many people who are not convenient to meet, it is said that they met on that day, everyone is looking for balance at a certain point, and King Shun just built a platform for everyone.Besides, King Shun is already in his sixtieth year, and based on the current average age, he is already considered a very old man.It is a birthday for a long-lived old man. He is not a political figure with special significance. Is it also a matter of filial piety by his children and grandchildren?
Reasonable people don't compare like this.But the person who wants to make trouble insists on such a comparison, what can you do with him?
Besides, this person is still Li Zhao.
Cen smiled at Lin Yutong, with a bit of embarrassment, "It is estimated that the prince will be beaten back today."
The implication is that even Prince Shun can't persuade him, so maybe someone has to persuade him.
If he wants to invite Xu Shizhong, then Li Cheng can just go and tell fourth master directly, why bother asking Cen to tell him?
Lin Yutong understood that what Shun Wangfu meant was to ask him to go into the palace and have a good talk with Wen Shi.It is best to ask Wen Shi to persuade Li Zhao.
She nodded, "I'll pass the sign to the palace when I get back today."
Cen breathed a sigh of relief, "...it's difficult for everyone to have such a person sitting on it."
The clan and the emperor are tied together. If the emperor is not wise, and the people below turn against the emperor, it is against the clan.Once there is no Da Zhou, who in the Li family can live alone?
The Jin family provided money and people to protect the country of Da Zhou, but in the end, let alone a reward, there was not even a commendation.Now, when something like this happened, the Jin family had to be asked to mediate.No need for others to say anything, Cen himself panicked with shame.
Sure enough, when the carriage arrived halfway, it ran into a person sent by Prince Shun's mansion, who was looking for Li Cheng and his wife, and told them not to delay, and to return to the mansion quickly.Because the prince was carried out of the palace.
Li Cheng was taken aback, "Beating?"
This is too much!
"No!" The visitor said, "It is said that he has knelt for a long time... fainted!"
Li Cheng's expression changed, and he got out of the carriage and rode away quickly.Cen also changed to a light carriage and left quickly.
Fourth Master and Lin Yutong were not idle, Fourth Master went directly to Xu Shizhong, Lin Yutong first asked someone to pass a sign to Concubine Wen Gui in the palace, please see him.According to Lin Yutong's estimation, Wen Shi had to ask himself to go as soon as he received the sign.She was not idle either, she hurriedly washed and changed her clothes, and then she cleaned up neatly, and someone came from the palace, asking Lin Yutong to come into the palace.
In summer, the imperial palace is surrounded by lush greenery.But the weeds are too thick and not taken care of in time, and it looks more desolate than other times.
This time, Wen did not meet in the palace, but waited in a garden in the palace.There are roses all around, not famous products.She stood under the rose trellis, waiting for Lin Yutong.As soon as Lin Yutong came to her, she stretched out her hand to prevent her from saluting, "The roses are grown by the little maids in the palace. If it weren't for them, there wouldn't even be a place to enjoy the scenery. It's the coolest place here. Live here and talk."
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was something in his words.Her majestic concubine actually felt that it was the coolest place under the rose arbor. What did this mean? It meant that the supply in the palace could not keep up.For example, after summer, there is no supply of ice that should be there.
With this premise, then this big birthday celebration is not just a big birthday event, but an excuse to vent dissatisfaction.
Lin Yutong asked, "I haven't heard anything from Qiong and Zhiting about the purchases in the palace."
Wen applauded in her heart, she just mentioned a little, and the other party understood everything.Sometimes she really doesn't know how Lin Yutong, a woman who has never been in contact with the court, can understand the inside of it so clearly.
What Lin Yutong didn't understand was that the internal affairs of the palace were managed by a special yamen.He Zhiting was arranged in a yamen like this to take care of the prince in the palace and the He family's empress, but if there were other things here, it was impossible for his son-in-law not to tell the fourth master.Unless, He Zhiting didn't know anything about it.In other words, his tentacles can't be stretched that long yet.
Then Wen said: "That's why I said... there is something going on here!" Her voice dropped, "Li Zhao is indeed not a wise gentleman, but he insisted on doing things that he knew would offend everyone. There is some reason. Unfortunately, it happened so suddenly that I haven't figured out where the edge is."
Lin Yutong understood Wen's meaning, she meant that Li Zhao used this unwise method as a last resort.
She frowned, even if something happened, shouldn't Li Zhao discuss it with Xu Shizhong?
Wen Shi seemed to understand Lin Yutong's thoughts, "The two had a quarrel before, and it was very unpleasant. I'm afraid Xu Shizhong will not enter the palace easily...except for the Dachaohui..."
No wonder!
Without Xu Shizhong, Li Zhao has no one to use.The relationship between these two people is really... very special.
Lin Yutong nodded, "Then I know the reason." Then he got up and said goodbye, "I'll go back first, I'm still waiting for news at home."
Wen didn't want to stay longer, so he just asked, "I heard that Brother Kun's marriage is settled? It's a girl from the Cen family."
Yes!
Wen's face was somewhat joyful, "That's good! Brother Kun is a gentleman and deserves a better girl."
Lin Yutong was noncommittal, blessed her body, not mentioning Brother Shen and Wen Lan'er she wanted to know, "Young lady stay a step!"
Wen could only stop, "Ask someone to take you out, maybe a night cat and wild dog will appear somewhere in this palace, and scare you again."
Too!The palace looks like this, if Li Zhao really wants to be extravagant, the palace should at least be repaired briefly.But he never mentioned it.
With such thoughts in mind, he left the palace and returned home, but the fourth master hadn't come back yet.
Sitting in front of Xu Shizhong at this time, he heard Xu Shizhong say: "...don't worry about it, just do what you love. There is a fixed amount for the clan's money every year, the income of the Huangzhuang, etc. These money can't enter the national treasury. The fat one is still the clan. Before the preparations for armaments, did you hear that the clan said that they were willing to pay a penny? I heard that Prince Shun asked the clan men several times to talk about this matter, and he suggested it. But other people in the clan No one is happy. The purchase of the palace is managed by Prince Shun's Mansion, but entering and exiting are two different things..."
Um!This is the same with accountants and cashiers.
Prince Shun's Mansion is regarded as an accountant who manages the finances, but the cashier is someone else.
"Kang Kang?" Fourth Master paused with the hand holding the teacup: King Kang is Li Zhao's real brother.
Xu Shizhong raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then nodded, "Yes! This...it was almost... If your second brother and I hadn't grabbed the handle of King Kang from his brother-in-law, then the one sitting on the throne would definitely not be... Li Zhao." As he spoke, he even smiled mockingly, "King Kang called someone to meet me a few days ago...he came to see my attitude. He wanted to hire Yingying for the crown prince, but I stopped him... ..."
The wolf's ambition is clearly revealed!
Now it is here who only want to stabilize and unify the outside world.But the inside of the royal room was calculated!Some people wanted to push Li Zhao down and go up by themselves.
The fourth master is too lazy to listen anymore, what is being consumed is the money within the clan, and he can do whatever he likes.
He went back and explained the matter to Tongtong, and Tongtong scolded, "This is because the child was thrown away, but the placenta was raised."
What the hell!
After scolding, I feel that this is normal. Looking through the history books, there are such people everywhere. Which dynasty in the past did not have it?
As a result, the couple here scolded Kang Wang's mansion. Within two days, sister Qiong and her son came to the door with their children.
The fourth master went to the front to talk with the son-in-law, and Sister Qiong said anxiously: "The old man of our family went to pay homage to the ancestral temple for His Majesty. Guess what? My mother-in-law actually betrothed my sister-in-law to Prince Kang!"
what?
It's only been a few days?
"Have you changed the sticker?" Lin Yutong asked.
"It's changed! It was changed yesterday. Mr. Xiang was on duty yesterday and didn't come back at night. I live outside, so I don't know much about it. Today, Mr. Xiang's colleagues came back from Jinkou with two barrels of sea fish, which is very rare. I kept two tails and sent two to my second sister, and I gave half of the rest to the He family, and then said that I would bring them back to our family after dinner. But the person I sent said when they came back, Yesterday, I got engaged to a young lady at home, and it was changed. When I asked which lady and which family I decided to marry, I realized that it was my sister-in-law who was engaged to Prince Kang. That's right, who knew that Xianggong's face changed, and he was about to come over without saying anything, so I followed here..."
"Where's your father-in-law?" Lin Yutong asked Sister Qiong, "The depth of the water here. Women don't know the stakes in it. Doesn't it mean that he, a big man, doesn't know..."
Sister Qiong was very embarrassed, "...it's not clear yet... my husband has already asked someone to inquire..."
It can be seen that this father is also unreliable, otherwise the first feeling of the son knowing this is to come to see the father-in-law, not to discuss with the father.
But what would fourth master say about this?
He Zhiting showed a bit of coldness on his face, "The main thing in the palace is not to overdo it, and I have never cared much about it. The royal affairs are even more so... In that place, I always remember the teachings of my father-in-law, and I can talk about things without saying a word." Don't talk. Kang Wang holds the key and manages the private treasury, and no one else can get in. No one wants to get involved in it. I have known since the beginning of ice supply this year that something bad is going to happen. It was said that the weather was getting warmer and some ingredients could not be kept. I wanted to put them in the small ice cellar of the imperial dining room to store the ingredients. Occasionally, the masters wanted to eat an ice bowl. As a result, Kang Wang happened to be there that day. Now, the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room scolded the eunuch, saying that His Majesty is in good health, but the servants below did not want to serve the master with food that is good for the body, but only followed the master's preferences... This request was rejected Since then, the food in the palace has been delivered fresh in the middle of the night. Anyway, there are not many masters, so I can handle it. But this day is hot, and there is no ice in the classroom... I mentioned it to my father earlier. Once, it was said that he was afraid that the prince would not be able to bear it, so the He family honored the money, and I handled all the money, bought ice and sent it in..."
There was a lot of miscellaneous talk, and the fourth master roughly extracted the meaning from the uncle's words, that is, Kang Wang might have stolen a lot from the royal private treasury.Even pocketed, there might not even be ice in the ice cellar.
He jumped up and down like this because he knew that the fire could not be wrapped in paper, and if he didn't charge forward, he would die in the end.
Fourth master asked him: "Then what do you want to do?"
He Zhiting said in a low voice: "This marriage can't be done... If you want to completely break it off, you have to be ruthless. Kang Wang's mansion is full of private pockets, guarding and stealing, you have to grasp the handle and pull it out completely."
Fourth Master just laughed, then shook his head, "It's late!"
late?
what a late!
"Do you think Kang Wang is such a brainless person?" Fourth Master shook his head, "You can decide for yourself whether this marriage will work out. But you have no chance to deal with Kang Wang."
why?
Fourth Master pointed to the palace, "If you guessed correctly, King Kang is already in the palace right now."
what?
He Zhiting hadn't finished speaking when someone came outside, and indeed it was the news from Lu Liuyao that King Kang had entered the palace.
why?
The fourth master said: "Why? When Kang Wang realized that his ambitions could not be realized and no one could tolerate him, he had to save himself. How to save himself? He had to find someone who could use him and had to use him Coincidentally, that His Majesty and Xu Shizhong happened to be somewhat unhappy, so the appearance of King Kang was the best choice. King Kang just asked, why didn't he accept it? As for the crime you mentioned, even if there is evidence How about it? On a big scale, it’s really a big deal. But on a small scale, it’s nothing more than the royal family’s own business. If the elder brother used the younger brother’s money, if the younger brother doesn’t hold it accountable, if others hold on to it, then just meddle in their own business. Therefore, there is no benefit to being close, but the disadvantage is not as great as you think. Don't panic when something happens. People in this world are enemies today and friends tomorrow. Don't mess around. Measured."
He Zhiting got up, it should be respectful.
The fourth master waved his hand, "Go! Sister Liuqiong and the child will live here first, you just go back and have a look..."
Yes!
Sister Qiong knew that it was nothing serious, so she really stayed here with peace of mind.She really likes living in her mother's house, she doesn't have to worry about anything, she just feels that everything goes well.
Sister Xuan laughed, "Everything is fine, but I can't see my eldest brother-in-law."
Lin Yutong shook his head, "Your elder brother-in-law will definitely come over tonight..."
It's no wonder that the couple in the He family didn't quarrel. With this quarrel, is the son trying to persuade him or not?Persuasion, I think being a mother really should teach me a lesson.Don't persuade it, it's outrageous, let the servants read the joke.Instead of being in a dilemma, it is better to hide in Yue's house.The He family is also embarrassed to come to the door of the Jin family, let the in-laws watch the joke.
It was exactly as the fourth master had predicted. Kang Wang took the initiative to find Li Zhao, crying bitterly, saying that the sons in the family were all prodigal sons, owed much money outside, and they were young but did not learn well. There was really no other way, so the private library was used.But don't worry, I will definitely return it to you in the future, and in the future, I will only have you as my leader, Zhan Yunyun.
Li Zhao said that as long as you are obedient, you will forget the past and so on.What the two brothers said is quite speculative!
Kang Wang said, "...Your Majesty, I think your decision to live a long life is really wise..." Originally, this move directly pushed Kang Wang to the cusp of the storm. It became a good thing again, "Think about it, everyone only knows that there is Xu Shizhong, there is a congratulatory minister, and there is a Jin family who is loyal and dedicated to the royal family of our Li family... But in fact, our own psychology You know, these great loyal ministers are all hiding traitors in their hearts. The traitor is like loyalty! For a long time, who still remembers that you are His Majesty, and the world of this Great Zhou belongs to our Li family. This longevity, the minister said, not only to It needs to be done, and it needs to be done in a big way, and it needs to be done in a bigger way, so that everyone in the world knows who owns the world. It is impossible not to remind. Shun Wangshu should have been the pillar of the clan, but now, it is wise and safe. , is unreliable at all. Besides, he is getting older and less courageous. After all, he is far away from our brothers, and his closeness is not so tight. He does not handle it, but the minister will handle it. You are satisfied..."
This is the first thing Kang Wang has asked for since he surrendered, and you have to ask him to do it.Otherwise, he will think that you do not accept him.
Li Zhao said, "It's enough to make sense of it. We don't know how much the Jin family has hidden because there is a war ahead. We still need to save money and use it where it matters most."
Kang Wang repeatedly responded and withdrew respectfully.But as soon as he came out, he couldn't hide the coldness in his eyes, he turned around and smiled mockingly: Save money?To be a wise man? !
Ah!
Wen saw Kang Wang's expression through the window, she walked away slowly and stood in the shadows.
Will Kang Wang plan for Li Zhao wholeheartedly?
Li Zhao's reputation is bad, is it a bad thing for him?
She raised her foot and wanted to tell Li Zhao about it, but she stopped when she reached the entrance of the side hall.
to say?Say... what can I say?Li Zhao wouldn't listen to advice, she had to plan for the future.Tied to Li Zhao, sooner or later the ship will sink.
She felt that it was necessary to invite the Queen back.There must be a battle between her and the queen, but before that, it can't be said...the two have the same goal.
Thinking of this, she stepped back little by little, sat at the table, rubbed the ink, and picked up the pen.I wrote two pages, sealed them, and called someone, "Send it to the queen!"
Lin Yutong has not been out of the house recently, but the news is very well-informed.Don't look at anything else, just know what's going on outside from Sister Qiong's side.Now it's sister Qiong's in-laws who are fighting, and then the eldest son-in-law is staying at Yue's house temporarily, and he is not working for the time being, hiding here to play chess with fourth master.Then the old man of the He family returned to Beijing and went directly to Kang Wang's mansion. He thought he was going to make a big fuss, but it turned out not to be.The He family recognized the marriage.
The eldest son-in-law went back to ask about this matter, and then sister-in-law Qiong said: "...my sister-in-law was spoiled by my mother-in-law. It's embarrassing to spread this story... She wanted to cling to a high-ranking family, but she secretly paid someone Qu... I was afraid that they were approaching on purpose, so she took advantage of the situation. Prince Kang's mansion didn't make a fuss and came to ask for a marriage, but the He family owed him a favor..."
There is no reason to go.
When it comes to this point, it's the same whether the marriage is successful or not.Mr. He didn't send his granddaughter directly to the nunnery to have her hair cut and become a sister-in-law. That was the greatest kindness to this girl.As for after getting married... After getting married, will the position of the He family be determined?That's absolutely not!
Therefore, the matter of the He family being tricked by Prince Kang's mansion, just wait and see, it will still be leaked intentionally or unintentionally, and people need to know how helpless the He family is.
But this matter has no effect on the overall situation.
The only thing that changed because of this was that Kang Wang recovered from the Jedi and trembled.The Longevity Festival was organized with one heart and one mind.
Where does the silver come from?
There are plenty of merchants!
Lu Liuyao sat in the fourth master's study, "This King Kang is so bold! If you pay 5 taels of silver, you will be able to guarantee that the merchant woman will be a noble person in the palace. If you pay 10 taels of silver, you will be guaranteed that the merchant woman will be the eldest prince's sidekick." Concubine. In the past few days, the road in front of Kang Wang's gate can be blocked by patting and seeing Kang Wang's chariots and horses. How can this go on?"
But this kind of thing, one is willing, one is willing, who can stop it.
The only thing to worry about is that this Longevity Festival, the Hou Mansion will have something to offer.
The Longevity Festival is just around the corner, and the fourth master sent all the things Tongtong prepared, such as the copied Buddhist scriptures, to Xu's family and asked Xu Shizhong to present them on his behalf.As for the Jin family, close the door and thank you!
Absolutely not going to the palace banquet.
First, Jin Kuang, who was Lord Hou, fell ill and couldn't even get out of bed or speak.
Second, as the eldest son, Kim Boyi is a beauty lamp. Isn't it hot now, so he has heat stroke and can't get up.
The others, except for the second son Jin who is fighting, have no official titles, so there is no need to enter the palace.What's more, from the old lady to the one-year-old children in the Jin family, they all prayed for the second child in front of them at home.This is an injustice made before the Buddha, and it will take seven to seven 49 days, and it must not be interrupted.
Hidden a neat.
Li Zhao didn't know how big the birthday banquet was, but thought it was bigger than in previous years, apart from the clan, there were first- and second-rank officials in the court.
Who knew that Kang Wang would startle everyone who could be shocked.
What kind of theater troupe, juggling troupe, all kinds of gold, silver, jade, antique calligraphy and paintings were brought to the palace in a very luxurious manner.
Not only Li Zhao's side, but also the queen's side, Wen's side, and the favored and unfavored concubines hiding in the corners all benefited from others.
Kang Wang even thoughtfully prepared birthday gifts for the eldest prince and the little princess, which really couldn't be more appropriate.
Li Zhao didn't know about these things, and he was still holding the booklet, thinking about giving face to whom.Wen Shi was right next to him, and he discussed with Wen Shi, "Yi Anyuan, don't bother him. But I have to show respect to the fourth son, and tell him to bring his wife and a few children into the palace. His eldest brother I know that when the wind blows, it will fall. If it is hot today and the sun is poisonous, it will not make him suffer.”
Wen pushed, "The Jin family can't come! The old lady had a dream... The Jin family is praying at home..."
The smile on Li Zhao's face faded a bit, and only when he had a bad dream would he pray at home.This kind of thing, I would rather believe in its existence than in its non-existence.He said lightly, "That's all..." and skipped Jin's house.
On the exact day, Li Zhao was sitting on a newly made dragon chair.This dragon chair can be carried. It is made of copper and covered with a layer of gold.But this kind of high majesty has really been missing for a long time.
Li Zhaojin was in a good mood, and praised King Kang, "This time the errand was handled well."
In the main hall, Shan shouted Long live, which made him feel a little high-spirited.
After the monarchs and ministers have passed the ceremony, send birthday gifts one by one.The gifts from the prince and princess are all in Li Zhao's heart.Three children, the older one is paralyzed, and the two younger ones are still not weaned.Who ran this thing.
I feel more and more that Kang Wang is considerate.
When he saw the congratulatory gifts from Xu Shizhong and the He family, he lost all interest.Xu Shizhong gave him a good book that was said to be out of print, which recorded the deeds of all the wise emperors in history, regardless of whether the deeds were true or false, but sending it out at this time, the meaning of this exhortation is self-evident.
When they arrived at the He family, the He family gave them a copy of the quotations from the late emperor, which was copied by He Xiang himself.The words that the late emperor said, the instructions he made, and many words that taught others were transcribed.What is this for?This is using the hands of the first emperor to teach me, right?
After seeing the congratulatory gift from the Jin family handed over by Xu Shizhong, Li Zhao's temper could hardly be suppressed.
Buddhist scriptures?
What's the meaning?Tell me to cultivate my body and mind.
What do you want?
If it wasn't for Kang Wang and Wen's pulling him, he would have thrown these things in the faces of Xu Shizhong and He Xiang on the spot.
Kang Wang interrupted, "He is actually He Xiang. I usually dream of my father, and I always have a smile in front of my eyes. When I think of my father's teachings, my clothes are often wet with tears. Thinking about using these words to teach my children and grandchildren, I can't do anything." It's broken, I don't know where to start. Mr. He is a good gift! Your Majesty, this book has to be copied by Yunchen. In the future, it will definitely be taught to future generations."
The embarrassing atmosphere was turned around.
Li Zhao also calmed down his anger, and smiled, "I just heard that your two families have become in-laws. Looking at it now, you seem to have a good understanding."
King Kang answered: "That's not true! I've been busy with my boy's marriage recently. Speaking of which, the Empress also said that she will choose a concubine for the eldest prince this year..." He laughed loudly, "Remembering that I was with Your Majesty How old are you compared to wrestling in the martial arts arena, and now you have to worry about your children and grandchildren's marriage." After speaking, his voice dropped, "I'm afraid you don't know, this time, the opportunity to continue to work on errands is really impressive. There are quite a few girls who have been born well, regardless of their origin, it is good to choose to be side concubines by their side."
Li Zhao nodded, "You are their uncle, so you should be worried. If you think it's good, call the noble concubine... and the queen to see it, and just send it in. The only thing I am worried about is that the child's concubine is not good. select……"
Xu Shinian added a sentence on the sidelines, "I, as a queen mother, have been paying attention to the candidates for the eldest concubine. I raised him for a while, and I always want to find a good one. I don't know about other people's family." , but I know a family whose family background is worthy, their family background is worthy, and their character is also worthy. Moreover, they will definitely be liked by the imperial concubine..."
Wen Shi had a bad premonition in his heart.
Li Zhao frowned, just about to stop him.But I heard Kang Wang ask: "Whose child, I never thought of it?"
The people in the hall were quiet, listening with their ears pricked up.
The queen covered her mouth and smiled, "Who else is there? The Jin family is it! The girl in the fourth room of the Jin family... You say, is it because the family is not worthy, or the family background is not worthy, whether the character is good or bad... Just look at Mr. Jin, there is nothing unbelievable..."
"Empress!" Xu Shizhong stood up slowly, bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, you drank a few more glasses, I'm afraid you are too strong to drink. The girl from the Jin family is already married, but you don't know about it!"
"Exactly!" Wen Shi also stood up, "Just because there is a war ahead and the Jin family is praying for blessings, it's just that they didn't make a fuss. Empress Empress, this candidate is definitely not a candidate!"
Li Zhao looked at Xu Shizhong, looked at Wen Shi, chuckled lightly, and slowly opened his mouth...
