History of Cannon Fodder Struggle [Qing]

A group of boys were gearing up to do such a big thing, and Minning soon received the news.

However, part of the Old Summer Palace is still being expanded, and the necessary buildings have to be purchased by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Building materials in the capital are prone to changes, so how can it be hidden from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

This investigation may not only find a few children.

Minning threw the booklet to Fourth Master, who took it and opened it for a look, then put the booklet aside again, "Let them go."

Hongshi was short of money, how could fourth master not know about it, but what he did was nothing in his eyes, so he didn't care.

If this kid is really capable, it would be considered his ability to win over all the building materials of the entire capital into his hands.

As long as he doesn't cause a big mess and doesn't let someone sue the holy driver, fourth master really doesn't care.

Minning also understood this truth, and gave the booklet to Fourth Master just to let him know that there was such a thing.

Seeing that fourth master didn't respond, this matter is considered to be clear.

"Who do you plan to send to deal with the private salt in Jiangnan?" Minning turned to another question.

Where there is private salt, there is official salt. Nowadays, most of the salt fields in the entire Qing Dynasty are in the hands of officials. In fact, the salt produced from private salt factories is only a small amount, and it will definitely not be able to supply such a huge private salt market.

That can only explain one problem, that is, some people sell official salt privately, but it is not known whether there is a problem with the salt factory or the whole sales process.

Fourth Master must not only control the source, but also check the entire process one by one.

However, Minning felt that this was only a temporary solution, not the root cause. If it could really cure the root cause, in the original history, the flood of private salt would not have become blatant.

Minning has a good idea, but this approach is of great importance, and it may overturn the thousands of years of Yanyin. Without the support of the court, even if it is said, it may not be adopted.

Putting this method aside for the time being, anyway, after Si Ye's strong crackdown on private salt this time, it will still have some effect in a short time.

As for long-term changes, wait until the policy stabilizes in a few years.

"I plan to send Lao Jiu there."

"Old Ninth?" Minning was a little surprised. He thought Fourth Master would assign Thirteen, but he didn't expect to assign Old Ninth.

The fourth master nodded and said, "Lao Jiu has good business skills, and those methods are usually hidden from his eyes. Let Li Wei assist him, and there will be no big trouble."

However, Minning felt that Fourth Master was really whimsical, and that Lao Jiu and Li Wei were really good at arranging them together.

"Let Hong Kyung follow along." Minning only explained this sentence.

The fourth master looked at her, "Hong Kyung can't do it, what if something goes wrong if he is targeted by someone?" Jiangnan is the site of a cult, if they knew Hong Kyung's identity, these people might have their ideas on him .

But Minning said: "Let him go out to see and see, always stay under our wings, when will he grow up."

The little sapling needs to be stimulated, and this time he was involved in the Jiangnan private salt case because he wanted to see the darkness in the officialdom. What does it mean that birds die for food and people die for money?

What does it mean to live in the time of light?

At this time, the fourth master felt that Minning was too cruel to Hong Kyung. Among the children, she had the highest demands on Hong Kyung.

The identities of the two seem to have been reversed, turning into a loving father and strict mother.

Min Ning has really high demands on Hong Kyung. This child has pinned her hopes on her. In the future, she will bear heavy responsibilities, not only to live for herself, but also to live for the common people.

Minning does not want to cultivate a wise emperor who values ​​the country, but an heir who can truly put the people first.

If this heir doesn't meet her wishes, she doesn't mind another one.

If Hong Kyung is not able to take on heavy responsibilities, then sooner or later he has to be replaced, which is also a relief for Hong Yu Kyung.

This is probably the point of difference between the two. The fourth master is already very satisfied with Hong Jing, and feels that he is the heir in his mind.

However, Minning felt that his son still had a lot of shortcomings, and he needed to hone his skills and experience all kinds of dark methods. Not to mention other things, knowing it would be good for him to take charge of the country in the future.

Fourth Master couldn't say no to her, so he finally said, "It's okay to let Hong Jing go, but you can't reveal your identity."

"That's exactly what I mean." Minning nodded.

The two reached an agreement, and within a few days, Fourth Master sent Lao Jiu and Li Wei to Jiangnan together.As soon as the two walked away, Hong Kyung changed his identity and followed him on the back foot. Similarly, he was followed by many people who were sticking to the pole.

The Jiangnan area also belongs to Minning's sphere of influence, where Zheng Jun and Huo Ting sit in command, so Minning is very assured of Hongjing's safety.

Left and right will suffer a little bit, but there is no need to worry about their lives.

Hong Jing left quietly, not many people in the capital knew about it, the main reason was that Hong Kyung had always stayed by the Supreme Emperor's side and was taught by the Supreme Emperor himself.

This time, after Hong Kyung left, the Supreme Emperor tacitly covered up Hong Kyung's news.

Hongshi had been wandering outside during this time, he didn't even dare to go back to the Old Summer Palace, and only went back to his elder brother's place in the palace to sleep at night.

After all, what he did was a major event, and he was afraid that he would be scolded if Khan Ama found out. He had been frantically storing building materials in his hands these days. If Khan Ama found out, the materials here might fall into his own hands.

Because of a guilty conscience, he dared not go back to the garden, not even to ask for peace.

Regarding Hongshi's current state, fourth master and Minning are well aware of it.

He just watched him act as a monster, and didn't interfere at all.

But Hongshi just didn't know, and found that after wandering around outside, there was no movement in the garden, and he immediately understood that Khan Ama must be busy and had no time to care about him.

Suddenly all worries disappeared, and Hongshi united a group of friends to sweep away all the good building materials in the capital.

After the Rongguo Mansion collected all the money for the construction of the Grand View Garden and selected the site for the construction of the Grand View Garden, it was discovered that all the building materials on the market had been taken away.

I thought it was someone against my family, such as Concubine An's family who also planned to build a family-saving garden.

But after checking, it's not the case.

It was a noble person who prepared to build five stadiums with a bold move, and then wiped out all the building materials on the market.

The Rongguo Mansion had no idea, so it planned to transfer stone and timber from other places to Beijing. All the building materials merchants in the capital seemed to have discussed it, and unanimously rejected it.

It is only said that the bottom of the warehouse that has been stored for several years has been cleared up, and there is not so much inventory in my hometown in a short period of time, so I have to wait at least a year to get another batch of materials to Beijing.

The day lily is cold for a year, how can Rongguo Mansion have so much time to wait.

It is impossible to use Nan'an Wang Taifei's relationship to see if he can get some building materials for the Rongguo Mansion if he gets in touch with that nobleman.

The nobleman over there was very happy to reply, but the price has to be increased by [-]%, which is too high for the Rongguo Mansion.

Then in the blink of an eye, due to the lack of building materials in the entire capital, even some low-grade materials began to increase in price.

The people of Rongguo Mansion couldn't even grab those low-grade materials in the capital, and the price increase was even higher than the price mentioned by the nobleman, Rongguo Mansion gritted their teeth and agreed.

He began to try to borrow money from his old relatives, and not only filled in the nearly 200 million taels of silver that had been scraped from the Lin family before, but also filled in all the cash in the house.

Mrs. Wang also borrowed 100 million taels of silver from her younger sister, Mrs. Xue, so that such a big gap was resolved.

At the same time, the murder of a big fool in the Xue family was exposed. Mrs. Xue had no choice but to take her son and daughter to escape to the capital.

Hongshi was really happy during this time, and doing business without money is really addictive. Previously, in the name of these elder brothers, he borrowed a large amount of materials from building material dealers at low prices, and waited for the Rongguo Mansion to come to his door. .

Sure enough, as he expected, the original price was [-]% more and he thought the other party would bargain.

Unexpectedly, within half a month, the price of building materials in the entire capital has risen due to scarcity.

The price he offered was not so difficult for the other party to accept. After the second time, the other party agreed to the price directly and neatly.

After getting rid of all the materials, Hongshi was happy with the thick banknotes in his hand. These banknotes are banknotes from the bank. Excluding the money owed to the builder, each person gets one cent, and each person at least You can get 10 taels.

Hongshi patted the banknote, and felt that he was at a disadvantage, so he would have looked it up if he had known.

It is a pity that the price was announced too early, and the cost of building materials in the market was not expected to rise so fast.

After this episode, Hongshi also understood a truth, the more scarce something is, the more expensive it can be sold.

If it works well, even white cloth can be sold for the price of silver.

After distributing the money, Hongshi took the bulk and took 50 taels at once, of which 20 taels were the cost of building materials accumulated in his hands, and half of the remaining 30 taels were the profits from the price increase. The next half is the money he shared with other people.

After getting the money, Hongshi straightened his back and returned to the Old Summer Palace humming a little tune.

The first thing he did was to pat the silver in front of An'er Niang, "An'er Niang, my son has come to pay back the silver!"

Minning glanced at the banknotes on the table, drank his tea and asked him, "Did you get dirty?"

Hongshi chuckled, knowing that he couldn't hide it from An Erniang.

I have to thank An'eniang for her cooperation in spreading the news that An's family is going to have a family visit, otherwise she wouldn't have pushed the Rongguo Mansion to take over the mess in his hands so swiftly.

Minning reached out to flip through a few banknotes, and took back the capital invested earlier, "Okay, I'll take as much as I need, and keep the rest for yourself, and deposit them in your own bank. If If you want to start a business, you can use these as capital, if you want to save to marry a wife, you can set a death date to raise some interest.”

Hongshi rubbed his forehead and smiled, and said his plan, "An'erniang, didn't you say that the stadium is saturated in the capital, and my son plans to go to other cities to build it, and there will be a North-South final in the future."

Minning nodded, "Your idea is not bad. I think it's better to use a part of the profits earned from the stadium every year to invest in building an academy to teach children to play football. In this way, your stadiums will have a steady stream of talents. . ” To avoid picking up junk, look for one here and another.

Hongshi's eyes lit up, "This is a good way." If it is done well, an academy belonging to the stadium can be built in the place where there is a stadium in the future. In the future, there will be no need to work hard to find people who are good at playing football from the people like now. , Rather than looking for it like this, it is better to cultivate it yourself.

"An'erniang, do you have any good ideas?"

Minning continued, "Isn't there a horse race now? You can also hold a ball game, find someone to set up a newspaper to report on horse racing, ball games, wrestling, and other sports games. You can combine all of these in one Report together. Even during the game, you can introduce the status of each team in the newspaper and sell some lottery tickets..."

Hongshi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he keenly grasped an unfamiliar name, "Wait, what is a lottery ticket?"

Minning almost bit his tongue, it was broken, and he said he had slipped his tongue.

Hongshi observed An'erniang's expression carefully, and always felt that the lottery ticket in her mouth was very important.

Minning glanced at him and said, "I can't talk about the lottery, I have to mention it to you, Khan Ama."

Minning was still worrying about lack of money, but at this moment he suddenly realized that the lottery is a good way to make money.

Why didn't I think of this crop before, and still work so hard to make money by myself?

Nowadays, the imperial court can run lottery tickets, because communication is underdeveloped, and it can be held nationally, but it can still be held in a single city.

Hongshi was a little bit unwilling, he was tickled like a feather floating in his heart, and really wanted to know what a lottery ticket was?What does it have to do with the stadium he runs?

"Okay, okay, now the lottery has nothing to do with you, hurry up and do everything I said before." Minning sent the person away with a few words, and Hongshi left unwillingly. The mother couldn't get any words out of her mouth.

Minning intends to figure out how to operate the welfare lottery. It’s not because he doesn’t want to get a sports lottery, but because he doesn’t believe in the ethics of this era. The wealth management certificate is easy to operate in secret, or the welfare lottery is more persuasive.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly ordered someone to call the glass-making craftsmen in the village.

Nowadays, the glass factories in Zhuangzi do not make ordinary glass. The glass that is used to make mirrors and install windows has already bloomed everywhere in the north and south of the river.

Even a small border county can have a glass factory.

So building a glass factory is not as profitable as it used to be.

Just like the glass factories in Zhuangzi have started to transform into more advanced glass products, such as lenses for astronomical telescopes with high density and clarity, or adding some metal components to glass manufacturing to become more rigid glass.

The glass that Minning wanted this time is simple enough, but difficult to say the least. It needs to have a siphon principle that can suck a small ball into the channel.

"...This glass mechanism needs to be as big as a medicine box, and it should be transparent. You can clearly see what's in it." The craftsman came, and Minning finally stated his requirements.

Then I took out a pen and drew the general appearance of the glass box, then pointed to certain parts, and said what should these places be used for?

The craftsman was a little perplexed when he heard it, like shaking the hand behind the glass box is easy, but it is a bit difficult to suck the balls in the box to the channel on the top.

Minning said, "How can the backflow incense flow down? If you understand the reason here, you must also understand how to turn on the switch above, so that the ball in the glass box can be sucked into the channel."

The craftsman was a little embarrassed, and finally said, "The younger ones should contact some people to go back and try."

Minning smiled and said, "Don't be too anxious. Even if you don't understand, you can recruit people from the people. There will always be some talented people who can solve this problem tomorrow. I will give you a month, is it enough?" ?”

The craftsman smiled wryly, "Imperial Concubine, you are embarrassing me, this thing has been created from scratch, and it will not take a year to finish it."

Minning shook his head, "One year is too long, I will give you a certain right to recruit more people, and it must be resolved within three months."

The craftsman had no choice but to extend his hand in a bow, "The little one will definitely live up to your mother's order."

Minning nodded in satisfaction and let him back off.

Then she went into the study and began to write about the operating procedures of the welfare lottery and where to sell lottery tickets.

Although the current technology is underdeveloped, Minning still intends to sell the instant lottery tickets, but there is a special place for printing, and the anti-counterfeiting marks are different each time.

Hongshi came to Concubine Qi's residence with more than 30 taels of silver bills in his arms. As soon as he entered the door, he wanted to take out all the silver bills. I took 20 taels in my hand.

After making mental preparations at the door, he happily stepped into the threshold and shouted inside, "Mother, my son is back!"

Concubine Qi came in from the inner hall, and Er GeGe came out together.

Er Gege is already engaged, and now she is waiting to get married, even though it is still a national funeral and the wedding has been postponed for one year, but the one-year delay will be enough for Concubine Qi to prepare more properly.

Concubine Qi is not as favored as she was when she was young, but after all, she gave birth to three sons and a daughter for the fourth master. Although one of the sons did not stand still, he was also one of the best masters in the entire palace.

This time her daughter was getting married, and Concubine Qi was a little dissatisfied with the dowry prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she has been tossing a lot during these days.

But now, Er Gege's dowry is in accordance with the specifications of the Supreme Emperor at that time, it is useless for Concubine Qi to dislike shabbiness, she can only cover her nose and pick and choose from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and try to prepare the best.

She didn't have much savings herself, so she filled Ergege's estate. She was originally the daughter of a magistrate. After entering the palace, she had no contact with her family for more than 20 years. Some money goes into the palace.

But that little money had exhausted the foundation of the Li family, and she didn't feel like asking for it, so she added a little more and asked someone to send it back.

This time, Ergege's marriage must be settled, so she was at a loss as to where to raise more dowry for her daughter.

Fortunately, Hongshi didn't come to borrow some money last time, otherwise he would be kicked out by Concubine Qi.

"Where have you been, you bastard? I haven't seen you in the garden!" Concubine Qi got angry when she saw her son, and ran up to pinch the brat's ears.

"Er Niang, let go, it hurts, let go!" Hong Shi covered his ears and grinned, finally getting rid of his own Er Niang's clutches.

"Er Niang, you are wrong to blame your son. He has made a lot of money outside during this time!" Hongshi rubbed his ears, with a wronged expression, he said and slapped the 10 taels of silver on the table superior.

Concubine Qi didn't even look at it, and said to Hongshi, "You kid is tricking me with fake things again!"

Er Gege on the side took the bank notes, flipped through a few, and said to Concubine Qi, "Emiang, this bank note seems to be real, it is a bank note from Yinzhuang in Yinzi City." The Qing Dynasty became popular, but Yinzhuang still has not been cancelled.

For example, when the fourth master was named Baylor, he owned two silver houses under his name, but these were only owned in name, and they were all managed by the internal affairs.

So now most of the private banks in the capital have been run on by the banks and cannot continue to open, and most of the remaining ones that are still open and living well are with backers.

At least half of them belonged to Yinzhuang under the name of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After all, not everyone believes in banks. There are always some people who are conservative in their thinking and only believe in traditional banks.

"Really?" Concubine Qi came over suspiciously, took the bank note from her daughter, flipped it over, and then looked at Hongshi.

"Did you do something to cheat? Otherwise, how could you have such a large sum of money?"

Hongshi said with an aggrieved face, "Emiang, do you think your son is this kind of person?"

Concubine Qi and her daughter looked at each other, and the two said in unison: "Like!"

Hongshi sat aside discouraged, poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp before saying, "My son assures that the money is clean."

Concubine Qi asked him while putting away the money, "Okay, tell me, where did you get all this money?"

Hongshi slumped on the chair, raised his hands and said, "Son said, son said it's not enough." Speaking of this, Hongshi pretended: "Some time ago, my son heard a good opportunity to make money from Er Niang, so I decided to give it a try." Joining forces with other people to make a fortune, that’s not all here.”

Immediately, he waved his hand boldly, "Emiang, Second Sister, take this money and spend it well, treat it as my pocket money for you!"

Concubine Qi tucked it into her sleeves, and opened her hands to touch Hongshi's body. Hongshi immediately jumped up in fright, and jumped to the door with her chest in her arms, "Emiang, what are you doing?"

Concubine Qi pinched her waist and said, "How can I not know your boy's temperament, if you are willing to give away so many banknotes all at once, you must have more hidden in your body, why don't you hand them over quickly, let me save them for you to marry?" daughter in law!"

Hongshi's face was almost green, "Emiang, my son still has so many bank notes, not all of them are here." He walked over the threshold and left a sentence while walking, "My son still has something to do. See you next time."

Concubine Qi stopped in front of the door, turned her head and looked at her daughter, both of them laughed out loud.

Hiroshi's guilty look just now was so funny.

Er Gege said, "Emiang, you scared the fourth brother, how long will it be before you come back?"

Concubine Qi waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about him, this bastard seems to be lost after he runs out, and he won't be able to find anyone before a certain time. It's better to run away, so as not to make me angry!"

As he spoke, he took out the stack of banknotes from his sleeve, divided them into half and gave them to Er Gege, "I will keep these for you at the bottom of the box, and I will make some good furniture for the rest and send them to the princess mansion."

But Er Gege asked, "Emiang, can my daughter leave the Princess Mansion and live directly at Econ's house when the time comes."

Concubine Qi had a look of hatred for iron and steel, and nodded her daughter's forehead fiercely, "You are stupid, just because you have a princess mansion, it doesn't mean you can't live in Dong E's mansion. Some princess mansions also have a The way out, if you don’t live happily in Dong E’s mansion in the future, you can go back to the princess’ mansion and live your own life with the door closed at any time.”

Er Gege lowered his head in shame, "My daughter just thinks that she should live with her husband's family when she is married." Er Gege has never been an independent person. After all, his character is still a little soft.

Concubine Qi also has some regrets. Her daughter didn't pay much attention when she was a child, but she was spoiled by her nanny, and her character became a little cowardly, without the atmosphere of a royal princess at all.

If the concubine of the palace was out of character, he would still talk about the past, but now he has become a royal princess, this temper is not enough.

Fortunately, she still has a face, which has inherited the beauty of Concubine Qi, and now it looks like a budding flower bone.

This face alone is enough for her to be favored in a short period of time, but a woman can never rely on her face for a lifetime.

Concubine Qi was deeply touched by this point. When she was young, she was favored by the fourth master with her face, and even gave birth to several children in one fell swoop.

But later this favor fell on Concubine An. Originally, she thought that Concubine An would repeat her mistakes after she had Nianshi. wrapped in hands.

Over the years, Concubine Qi has realized a truth, a woman can be favored by a man for a short time with a pretty face, but if she wants to make a man fall in love with her forever, she must have something in her head.

Otherwise, no matter how beautiful a face is, it will always get boring after a long time.

"Silly daughter, forget it. Whoever told you to be born to me is an enemy. Later, I will take you to beg An'er Niang, and see if she can think of a way to help you." As long as Concubine An is willing to teach you a little Experience is enough for my silly daughter to use for a lifetime.

When I got back to Hong, I left my mother's residence, which was not too big, and ran out of the garden directly.

He directly withdrew the remaining 20 taels of silver from the bank and deposited it in the bank.

20 taels of silver is considered a big customer for the bank.

As soon as I turned in, I was received like a VIP from the bank.

Now every bank is doing tasks such as winning deposits and grabbing customers from banks.

Especially customers like Hongshi who have transferred from banks to banks are even more popular. A bank with more deposits can lend more.

Loans are where banks make their money.

On the way back, Hongshi happened to meet the road in front of him and was blocked. When he asked, it turned out that it was Rongguo Mansion, who had made him a big profit earlier.

For the sake of being taken advantage of, Hongshi got out of the way and turned to the side road.

Before leaving, he seemed to see a familiar face, wasn't that the fairy sister he saw at An'eniang's side before?

He hurriedly stopped the carriage, ran back to have a look, and found that the other party had long since disappeared.

Hongshi's curiosity was really aroused all of a sudden, and he really wanted to find out the true identity of that fairy sister.

Lin Daiyu went out this time mainly to visit the uncle of the distant family, especially when she learned from Concubine An that she had an uncle of the distant family who was also in the capital, and her father even entrusted him to take care of herself.

Although Lin Daiyu has never met this clan uncle, she has already been taken care of by him, such as her Duoluogege identity.

For the 500 million taels of silver, Lin Daiyu didn't take it seriously. She has always been generous to others. The money was given to the clan uncle by her father, but the clan uncle used the money to change her identity to Gege. She was even more grateful It's too late.

What's more, the court intends to use the money to help poor children study and erect a monument for his father. This means that as long as these colleges are in existence, his father will be known to others. This is what Lin Daiyu is most grateful for.

With 500 million taels of silver in exchange for so many benefits, Lin Daiyu felt that she deserved it.

This time under the guidance of the foster mother, Lin Daiyu thought about going to pay her respects to her uncle, and finally got her uncle's address from the old lady, so she went to visit her within a few days.

Unexpectedly, there was a traffic jam on the way back. Fortunately, it dispersed quickly, otherwise I don't know how long it will be delayed?

The next day, Minning received an invitation from Hongshi early in the morning, and she showed a puzzled look, "Didn't Hongshi leave the garden yesterday?" She thought he would not come to the garden again in a short time, why did he come so early this morning? coming?

Minning recalled the lottery ticket mentioned yesterday, maybe the child came to ask her again today.

That's not okay, she hasn't told fourth master yet.

What's more, the money from selling lottery tickets will eventually go to the national treasury, so this kid can't be allowed to go through this muddy water.

"Call someone to come in!" Minning made up his mind, or did he intend to hear what this kid was up to?

If she really wants to play the lottery, she has to persuade him to give up early. At this moment, Minning has forgotten that this era is not the future. She subconsciously thinks this is common sense, but she forgot that she didn't make it clear to Hongshi yesterday.

Hongshi walked in energetically, and greeted Minning in the name of Qian'er.

"Get up." Minning beckoned him over, "I'll have breakfast with Mrs. An later."

Hong Shi hurriedly sat at the table, showing a bright smile, "Coincidentally, my son hasn't eaten yet."

Minning beckoned, and someone brought up a basin of warm water, and Hongshi washed his hands.

The maid on the other side has already brought up a food box.

Minning's morning meals are always simple, using thick millet porridge, a cage of small steamed buns, and various fillings, so there will be no repetitions.

As for the dishes and the like, they are just a few dishes of refreshing side dishes, drenched in sesame oil, so it is very simple to eat like this.

I had no appetite at first, but after taking a sip of porridge, my stomach seemed to wake up and began to wriggle.

After eating, he rinsed his mouth and washed his hands before Minning asked him why he came.

Hong Shi hurriedly put his hands down, and asked like a good boy, "Ms. An'er, yesterday I saw the younger sister who went out from your yard last time. Which family is that younger sister?" She moved closer to Minning, winked and asked in a low voice, "Could it be the illegitimate daughter of Khan Ama left in the folk?"

Minning listened for a while, and when he came to his senses, he flicked his forehead angrily, "What the hell are you thinking about? Be careful, Khan Ama will beat you up after hearing it!"

Hongshi showed innocent eyes, "If not, why are you so secretive and not telling your son, Mrs. An'er?"

Minning thumped him on the shoulder, "You child, what are you thinking about every day? You are a little girl, why do you keep asking?"

Hongshi blushed a little, his eyes rolled around, "Didn't my son want a younger sister? So...so..."

This is a lie, but he has two younger sisters, and he has never seen him miss it so much.

Minning was surprised. Although Hongshi was just a kid in her eyes, he was actually 13 years old.Children in this era are already precocious. At the age of 13, the fourth master had already married Fujin. If you really do the math, even middle school students can fall in love early.

"You don't have to think too much, she is a woman from the Han family, and your Ama will never let you marry a woman from the Han family as Fujin." As for the side Fujin, she didn't think Lin Daiyu would be willing to be someone else's concubine, such a girl rubbed her eyes No sand.

What's more, Lin Daiyu was going to get entangled with Jia Baoyu in the end, and she didn't want Hongshi to get involved at all.

What's more, even if Fourth Master agrees, Lin Daiyu is not suitable to be a royal daughter-in-law.

Back then, she had cut off her emotional roots before adapting to her current life. She didn't think Lin Daiyu could do it.

Therefore, Minning did not give Hongshi any hope, nor did he plan to disclose Lin Daiyu's news to Hongshi.

Hongshi covered his face and waved his hands shyly, "Ms. An'er, what are you talking about? My son is just... just..." He stuttered and couldn't speak.

Originally, I just thought that the little girl was pretty, and I just got to know her, but I didn't think about marrying her to be a Fujin.

These grown-ups really, always like to think wildly!

Hongshi immediately stood up, "My son remembered that he still has things to do today, so I'll take my leave first."

Min Ning was stunned for a moment, and only realized when Hong Shi ran away and disappeared. Could it be that he really thought too much.

Not long after Hongshi left, Concubine Qi brought Er Gege over to visit.

Minning looked puzzled, what happened to Concubine Qi's family?Why did you come to her place as if you were catching up?
