Chapter 2 The Helian Clan, Everywhere
The business of the Helian clan is all over the world, but its roots are always in the country of Yue. The successive heads of the family and the heads of each house have been leading most of the clan to live in their homeland. Therefore, some of the secrets of the Helian clan are only heard of by a few people in the Yue Kingdom. Even the people of the clan may not know. "Helian Yuanniang" is one of them.
Helian Yuanniang is a person, but she is not a person. It is rumored that "Yuan Niang" first appeared in the time of "Helian Zhongxing", that is, the period when the Helian clan rose again and grew stronger because of the almost extinction of women with foreign surnames. "Yuan Niang" is a very special existence, just like the long room she is in. The people in the long house of the Helian clan are not the eldest sons and grandsons of the clan, but the "clan elders" who have made outstanding contributions. There are only a few "clan elders", who come from all houses in the clan, they are in high power, they control many important things in the clan, and they are the brains of the head of the family. In addition to the "clan elder", there is only one "Yuan Niang" in the long house. "Yuan Niang" is more like a position, inherited from the past, passed down from generation to generation over time. "Yuan Niang" lives in a simple place, even in the Helian clan, it is very mysterious, and the outside world knows very little about her. But the emperor of Yue and several family history of the family old ministers have heard the rumors of "Yuan Niang", "Yuan Niang" and his people are above the "clan elder", Helian family accounts for two-third of the world's wealth, and half of them are under the name of the long house, "Yuan Niang" can be used at will, and there is no need for the head of the family to nod with the "clan elder". Such a huge wealth is allowed to be arbitrarily controlled by a woman, which is too much like an apocryphal story, even if you listen to it, it will be a wild history book. Unexpectedly, I saw the living "Helian Yuanniang" today, how could I not be surprised.
"But a prescription to protect the fetus, presumably there are no famous doctors in that Jing country, and they actually worked the little girl of the Helian family to save people. The fifth prince meant something.
"What His Royal Highness said is extremely true, it is indeed a prescription to protect the fetus, not only the unknown doctor of Jingguo, but also Nanling, Liguo, and Qingzhou, there is nothing that can compare to the doctor of the Helian clan. Helian Yanran said sarcastically in a serious manner.
The fifth prince had the intention to teach this little woman a lesson, but because of the lesson of the eldest prince, he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the emperor, and his handsome face turned red.
"What a clever little girl, the mourning family really likes it, it's not good to kneel all the time at a young age, emperor, tell her to be flat. The Queen Mother said with a kind smile. The rumors of "Helian Yuanniang", she knows more than the emperor, and naturally understands the little woman in front of her who should not be underestimated. Shangjia, even if they are imperial merchants, they are from humble backgrounds, and it doesn't matter how they toss and humiliate, after all, if you want to pinch them to death, it's as easy as stepping on ants. But the Helian clan is different, very different, they travel among the countries, they can not only be brothers and sisters with the peddlers and pawns, but also can drink and talk with the military generals, there is no one in this world who does not like to do business with the Helian clan. If such a tycoon does not have this love for his homeland in the Yue Kingdom, it is not a matter of words to want to get the protection of any country? The silk silk and rouge gouache that are only presented to the harem every year are not treasures that are hard to find on the market? The little woman who controls more than half of the family's wealth naturally wants to win over her.
The queen mother opened her mouth, and the emperor naturally did not refute it, and said: "What the queen mother said is very true, let's be even." ”
"The people's daughter thanked Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Helian Yanran saluted again, but in order to get up, she still knelt on the ground, and said: "The people's daughter brought some gadgets to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and the ladies in the palace to relieve her boredom, and I hope Your Majesty will smile and accept it." ”
The emperor nodded in agreement, and after a short time, a group of maids with boxes led by the inner supervisor rushed in, one after another, walking quickly, but there was no movement, and even the floating clothes were quiet. These women all bowed their heads respectfully, their clothes were richly decorated, and their steps were graceful and fragrant, and if it were not for the different sizes of the boxes in their hands, they would look like only one person entering the temple from the front. It is not glamorous, nor does it dominate, but it can firmly attract everyone's attention at once, and it seems to be written from head to toe with the words "My family is very rich, my family is very educated, and my family has everything". provoked many concubines and princesses to hate and wring the handkerchief in their hands in private. The maids stopped more than a dozen steps behind Helian Yanran, lined up, knelt down in unison, bowed in unison, and respectfully held the box and said, "Meet His Majesty the Emperor, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother." ”
"Miss Helian has a heart. The queen said lightly. She didn't take "Helian Yuanniang" in her eyes, after all, she was just a yellow-haired girl who had not yet reached the end of her life, and the Queen Mother seemed to be too exalted by her.
"The people's daughter is frightened," Helian Yanran said softly, still calmly as if enjoying the scenery in her own courtyard, and then, she changed her words and saluted the emperor again, "His Royal Highness Twelve once wanted to make a close-fitting soft armor for His Majesty, in case His Majesty needs to drive in person." The folk girl presented a "fairy armor" to His Majesty, this thing is also known as "avoiding water and fire without dust brocade", it is extremely light and soft, invulnerable, invulnerable, water and fire are not invasive, and even dust can not be contaminated. After Helian Yanran finished speaking, the box in the hand of the first maid behind him slowly opened, and everyone saw a faint blue halo emitting from the box. There is not a single person here, male or female, who does not aspire to have such a "fairy armor".
"His Royal Highness the Twelfth once asked the maiden to stay in Yandan, and the maiden asked again and again to learn that it was His Royal Highness's filial piety to the Empress Dowager. Since it is to be dedicated to the Queen Mother, how can 'Zhu Yan Dan' be able to get it. The pill offered by the folk girl this time is called 'Ruochu', and after taking one pill every ten days, after three pills, the skin is as tender as a newborn baby, after five pills, there is no trace of gray hair, and after ten pills, the face will return to its cardamom years. It takes ten years for this medicine to be made into one pill, and now there are only ten pills left in the world, all of which are dedicated to the Queen Mother. The second woman opened the box in her hand, and three delicate pastel bottles lay quietly in the box, and the woman in the room looked at these three bottles with a gaze as if a person was about to starve to death and saw an endless delicacies.
"His Royal Highness the Twelfth often lamented that the queen mother worked hard for the affairs of the harem, and sometimes couldn't sleep at night. The folk girl offered a 'dream' pillow for the queen's mother, and the pillow 'a dream' pillow could fall asleep in a few breaths, and a good night's sleep and a dream would be bright. The box in the hand of the third maid gradually opened, and the pillow like porcelain and jade appeared in the eyes of everyone, and I don't know how many people were envious.
