Chapter 55 Ganoderma Lucidum

Everyone knows that Concubine Mei is the most outstanding female politician in Situ Yi Dynasty.However, regarding the timing of its first political display in front of everyone, historians of all dynasties have different opinions, and there is no unified answer.However, according to unofficial historical records, in the time of Emperor Wendi, Concubine Mei used the name of birthday celebration to exclude the fifth prince at that time, who was later the loyal county king, from the high position, which also laid the foundation for her later involvement in government affairs.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————

"I want that Ganoderma lucidum grass!" Overseas, Wei Qian and Tao Ping are doing island construction on Midway Island.

On the way, Tao Ping asked about the congratulatory gift from Wei Qian.

"I have a big feud with Zhen's family. Now that I'm a collaborator with Situ Yun, why don't you take this opportunity to help him kill his fifth brother and give him some help."

With Situ Yun gaining power, Wei Qian can also take the opportunity to use Situ Yun's name to secretly tinker with his own affairs in Jiangnan.

For example, selling second-class weapons returned from the army can be repaired and used at sea.

The future lord of Mount Li was really excited and pulled Tao Ping and others to start their own sea business.

"However, the ganoderma grass of the fifth prince is really extraordinary. If we and other practitioners get it, it can improve our skills for more than ten years." Wei Qian is bound to get this treasure.

"But this thing is with the emperor, how do you want to get it?"

"Of course I have a way, not only to ask for Ganoderma lucidum, but also to take the opportunity to accumulate merit. If sweet potatoes are popularized in China and feed a group of farmers, even if there are only 100 million people, this merit will be enough for me to go further." Wei Qianshuang The flame of ambition flickered in her eyes, and this woman's ambition pointed to one point from beginning to end.

Looking at the coast of Midway Island, there is a shipyard there that is finally arming three large ships.Bows and arrows, artillery, equipped on the big ship one by one.

"With these three ships, I can wipe out the pirates and start my journey to fight for supremacy at sea."

……

In the Daming Palace, the sage was playing with his fingers and meditating: Wei Qian offered this thing, if what he said was true, he would have made great contributions to the community.

So, he put a jade pendant with him into the box, and gave the golden lock to Situ Yun.

"It's really bold of you to choose this daughter of the Wei family. She has the style of Duke Rong back then, and dared to ask me for something. But I don't plan to return the golden lock to her now, and you will give it back after she passes through the door."

Situ Yun stepped forward, passed the fifth prince and took the golden lock.

"The daughter of the Wei family named this sweet potato, but in my eyes, this thing is worth ten thousand gold, and it is called a golden melon." After naming it, it will be famous for generations to come, and this famous person will still be remembered. Naturally, such a beautiful saint will not Let others.

But there is another reward for Wei Qian: "The daughter of the Wei family has made great contributions and bestowed the title of county head, taking the name of Jinling, which can be inherited for a generation."

The faces of all the ministers changed drastically, and even the princes next to him also had strange expressions.Fame is a tool, not to be taken lightly.After the era at the beginning of the dynasty passed, titles were rarely conferred, let alone women, and the special title of county head.

Concubine Chen was overjoyed: "I will thank Your Majesty on behalf of this girl."

There is still a difference between the county master and the county monarch.

As a kind of title for the wives of the county, the county monarch is also called the county lady, and the top is the country lady.Most of them are given to married women. Although it makes sense to give to unmarried women, but in this dynasty, unmarried women are generally given the title of county head to show their honor and favor.

The highest title of the county head is the princess, the daughter of the country.The county owner, the princess, and then the princess, the eldest princess, and the eldest princess.The eldest princess and the eldest princess are just the titles of the emperor's sisters and eldest daughters. Strictly speaking, although they are noble, they are still at the level of princesses.

The county head, as the rank after the princess and the princess, is generally a title only reserved for noble ladies of the royal family.There are only five people who bestow foreign surnames in this dynasty.

That's all for nothing, anyway, as a mere woman, the county magistrate of this dynasty doesn't have any food towns, fiefdoms, and no rights.It's just that the court will give some self-help when they get married.The key is the following sentence "can be inherited from one generation to another."

How many people dream of inheriting the title?

In other words, if Wei Qian gave birth to a daughter, she would be the head of the county at birth.

inherit?Several grand scholars wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, they immediately understood what the saint meant.

Don't care about how many things you give Wei Qian now, as long as you marry into the royal family later, everything will belong to Situ Yun.

County Lord?At that time, the grade of the side princess may not be worse than that of the county chief.

And pass it on to your daughter?According to Prince Situ Yun's specifications, his daughter should have been the princess.But this is the legitimate daughter of the main concubine, and the daughter of the side concubine needs to be reported at that time, but if there is no accident, it should be given the title of county head.

"Is this an early preparation for His Highness Seven's daughter?" All the ministers thought clearly and were too lazy to meddle in Situ Yun's family affairs.Sooner or later, Wei Qian's daughter is also the county lord, and His Majesty bestowing this title is just a gimmick, and it's nothing more than buying bones with a lot of money.

But some people are not happy.Click!The fifth prince crushed the wine glass, his face turned blue and white.

"The limelight is completely covered, and it's actually a mere woman!"

But it wasn't over yet, something happened later that made him even more angry.

Originally, someone should come out to thank the sage after the reward.Concubine Chen is the future mother and concubine, and Jia Amnesty should also come out to thank her as an uncle.

It's just that Jia She had a hesitant look on his face, he hesitated to speak, and the anxious mother Jia frequently winked.

The saint frowned: "Why? What's the inconvenience?"

"My niece said that she wanted the Ganoderma lucidum that the fifth prince went to Yunwu Mountain to pick not long ago. It is said that my younger sister has been overworked these years, and she wants to use the Ganoderma lucidum as her mother's conditioning."

The fifth prince's face was completely dark, and there was a gust of wind around him, and the sound of teeth grinding could be heard from all around.

Situ Yun smiled, pretending not to know: "Why, fifth brother is not in good health?"

"Ganoderma lucidum?" At this moment, the saint remembered the Ganoderma lucidum that he left aside.

Small white flowers move with the wind, pieces of Ganoderma lucidum dance in the wind.But with Wei Qian's pumpkin occupying his heart, why do he care about the so-called Ganoderma lucidum?

"Of course, my niece said that she would not want His Highness's Ganoderma lucidum in vain. Back then, His Highness used hundreds of laborers to climb mountains to collect herbs, and the total cost was 3000 taels, including condolence fees for the dead and injured, and my niece was willing to bear it all. Then buy it with ten thousand taels of silver."

This is cheating people!

People with discerning eyes could see that Wei Qian was pointing the finger at the fifth prince, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.Could it be that this matter was ordered by the Seventh Prince?

Where can people not die when they go up the mountain to collect herbs?Especially this kind of precious herb, which grows on the cliffs, is more prone to accidents.I'm afraid there is still blood under the Ganoderma lucidum grass?

None of the courtiers were stupid, it could be seen that Wei Qian was giving eye drops to the Fifth Prince!

The sage looked worried. Although he knew that collecting herbs would be dangerous, he didn't think about it.But when Wei Qian brought it up, he couldn't help but feel bored.Do you dare to feel that you have seen blood for this birthday gift?

Unknown blood!

The saint didn't want to keep this thing anymore, so he said: "The county magistrate of Jinling has a filial piety schedule. If you come, this Ganoderma lucidum will be given to her mother for recuperation. In addition, I will give a hundred taels of gold and a pearl. As for the medicine of Ganoderma lucidum I paid the money for her."

"Old Five, how much did you spend on this herb?"

The fifth prince didn't dare to report more, lest his father wonder where he got so much money.So he easily reported 7000 taels.

"Not good!" There were a few courtiers below who had wrong expressions, and immediately understood that the fifth prince had made a slip of the tongue.

"Unfortunately, His Highness has reported 7000 taels now. His Majesty only needs to send someone to investigate later, and it will be difficult to know that His Highness died while collecting medicine!"

Seeing blood is one aspect, but more importantly, comfort money.

7000 taels, after excluding the cost, how much will be given to the families of the deceased?

"What a vicious woman, if your highness quotes too much, your majesty will doubt the origin of his gold and silver, and I'm afraid it will involve fraud in Jiangnan. If you say less, it will remind people of disregarding human life and buying out at a low price." Five The prince's confidant was sweating coldly, and he hurriedly looked at the saint's face.

The sage, Lao Chi, will not be easily angered by color.It's just that I went back and asked someone to check the ins and outs of this matter.After this investigation, it is natural to see that the fifth prince forced the farmers to go up the mountain to collect herbs.And it was even more indifferent to the injured and dead, and they gave a few taels of silver hastily and then dismissed them.

Not to mention giving the fifth prince extra points for this Ganoderma lucidum grass, if he doesn't give him a severe reprimand, helping him to erase this matter is already a sage's love for father and son.

"Marrying a wife should be like a daughter of the Wei family. Just this small move will completely cut off the power that the fifth prince has just recovered." After the banquet was over, everyone had different thoughts.

At first, everyone thought that Situ Yun was behind this matter, but looking at Situ Yun's expression, it seemed that he didn't know anything about it.

Wu Zhengde and his son went back to the mansion: "Your father and I still know a little about the fifth prince, and I can't do this with his means. As for whether it was the dead daughter of the Wei family who did it, I will wait until she comes to Beijing." We will know for ourselves. But if we face her, our girl might not be as good as her."

"That's right, depending on Concubine Chen's face today, when she enters the mansion, why don't she just step on our daughter's head?"

"We must let the girl give birth to a son as soon as possible, even if it arouses the jealousy of the princess, I can't take care of it. Sir, come down, find a way to suppress the princess later, and then set our girl upright. With the son here, I don't have to worry about this woman again. What means. After all, this is a world where men rule."

At the beginning, Situ Yun forced Wei Qian to come to propose marriage, and the city was full of ups and downs in the capital. Many people made fun of Situ Yun for blindly seeing a father of Kofke, but after this palace banquet, they can only honestly admire Situ Yun's foresight .

Even Situ Yun himself was dizzy. He thought that his fifth brother could take the opportunity to recover, but he didn't expect to be slapped again out of thin air. It was a surprise!

"Okay! My son, the woman you are looking for is indeed Wangfu!" Concubine Chen and Situ Yun returned to the palace, and Concubine Chen laughed loudly regardless of the people around her: "You didn't see Concubine Zhen Face! Just watch, your father will definitely be resting here in this palace in the next few days."

Concubine Chen smiled brightly. If she could take the opportunity to consolidate her favor, she might really have a chance to be in the top position!

Several families were happy and some were sad, but Mother Jia was very angry. When she returned to Jia's mansion, she reprimanded Jia She: "You don't know how to discuss such a big matter with me! Now you are in the limelight for the Wei family. With you What's the benefit? It's better to send it in the name of our Jia family from the beginning. If you don't want to get promoted and get rich, at least your eldest niece will have an easier life in the palace, and maybe you can also favor some of the younger generation."

Jia She disapproved: "Our family? Come on, mother, you are so stupid to be a younger sister and a good girl. If your son really dares not come down, believe it or not, His Highness the Seventh Highness will come to ask him about it later? Don't forget, His Highness Seventh is someone's husband. Not helping others?"

"Not to mention that your son is still on this boat! Let me tell you this, I have blatantly supported the Seventh Prince. Mother, don't keep thinking about the old relatives of the Zhen family, and don't forget how my brother-in-law died back then. "

Just as Jia's mother was about to speak, Jia Amnesty interrupted her again: "And why sister Min left early, maybe mother should really ask the Zhen family."

"What did you say!" Mother Jia's complexion changed drastically, she suddenly got up, and looked at Jia Amnesty in disbelief: "Say it again!"

Jia Amnesty is also making nonsense, whether Jia Min's matter has anything to do with the Zhen family, he is just listening to some gossip.Seeing Jiamu's stern look, she was terrified, and forced herself to say, "Don't forget Brother-in-law Lin's official position, and the corruption and corruption in the south of the Yangtze River over the years, do you think you can get away from the Zhen family?"

Mother Jia's heart is cold, but this is not over yet, Jia Amnesty intends to cut her off from the Zhen family completely.

"Not to mention anything else, the eldest girl is not inferior to the Qian girl, but now she is trapped in the palace. You can see that the noble concubine of the Zhen family is helping to support her? How much does the eldest girl ask for from the mansion every year, what is the use?"

When Jia Mu said this, she couldn't help muttering.That's right, if the Zhen family was really reliable, Yuan Chun wouldn't be just a female historian by now.

"The Fifth Prince is completely out of luck. Others may be in the position, but he is the only one who can't." Jia She said with a chuckle: "Mother asked the second child to help the Fifth Prince, but now, the Seventh Prince, who is still supported by the son, is more promising. !"

Jia Amnesty's remark was intended to stimulate Jia's mother.Who made Jia's mother partial to Jia Zheng all day long.But Jia's mother was interested when she heard this, and immediately came up with an idea: "Why don't you let Yuan Chun take the opportunity to enter the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and if you win, you can directly become a nobleman. Even if you lose, there is still a Qian girl in the mansion, The two sisters can still take care of each other." She had forgotten that Wei Qian's surname was different from Jia Yuanchun's, and the relationship between the two sisters was not that good.
