Chapter 135: Ming Yu invited, and the Hou Mansion laid off people

As we all know, Wei Mingxi rarely speaks in the court, but when he speaks, he will never express his political opinions, and every time Emperor Shou asks him, it is equivalent to asking in vain, but he will still ask a routine question, as if expecting him to behave. The courtiers had long been accustomed to him not opening his mouth, so after Wei Mingyuan finished speaking, everyone had already talked in a low voice, Wei Mingxi's eyes swept over one by one, like cold ice, and in an instant, everyone's words were frozen, and they couldn't help but look at him silently.

Wei Mingxi's voice was as cold as ever: "Erchen believes that the new deal is feasible. ”

At this moment, not only the courtiers were stunned, but even Emperor Shou was a little unaccustomed to his sudden participation in politics. Wei Mingxi didn't say much, but these eight words showed his absolute position.

At this time, only one sentence flashed in Emperor Shou's heart: The sky has eyes, his Xi'er has finally opened his mind!

Suppressing his excitement, Emperor Shou asked nervously: "You also agree with the new deal?"

It is natural for the military court of the gate lords to complain, but throughout the ages, which is beneficial to the country and the people, which is not to be affected by the interests of some people, is it not the work of the Ming monarch to sacrifice the wishes of the vast majority of the people because of the unhappiness of some people. Wei Mingxi's voice paused, and then said calmly: "The Sixth Emperor Brother joined politics earlier than me, and he is a virtuous king praised by the Manchu Dynasty, you say, is this the truth?"

Wei Mingyu closed his eyes, from the moment Wei Mingxi spoke, he knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion.

He was also a very smart man, and in a hurry, he had a way out.

"Father, although the ninth brother does not participate in politics, his vision is really worth learning from us. Wei Mingyu's voice was full of smiles: "It seems that Erchen still has a lot of unsatisfactory points, so it is better to hand over the affairs of this new deal reform to Erchen." The son hereby assures his father that he will be able to successfully fulfill his father's entrustment. ”

It's really good to retreat into advance with this move, Fu Rongyue was amazed to hear it behind the screen, Wei Mingyuan was also dumbfounded, he never expected Wei Mingyu to change his words so quickly, not only changed his words, but also grabbed the fat difference of the reform in the first place.

Wei Mingyuan immediately objected: "Father, the sixth brother has already had a lot of experience and experience in the court, and the sons and daughters have just participated in the court politics, so there are a lot to learn, so let's leave it to the sons." ”

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing about the reform of the new deal involves not only the gate lord and the military court, but also the connections of all parties, if you are not familiar with it, you can't do it. His Royal Highness King Zhao has participated in politics for many years and has made great achievements, and his Royal Highness will persuade all parties to get twice the result with half the effort!" "Which of these courtiers is not a human spirit, but is the best at seeing the wind and steering the rudder, and since he has learned that Wei Mingyu supports the reform, he immediately seized the opportunity to sell his belief, these people are clear-minded, they are all loyal to Wei Mingyu, since Wei Mingyu has gained power, will he still treat them badly? Perhaps, this innovation will not only not harm himself, but also go one step further.

Suddenly, there was chaos in the hall, and the sound of quarrels was endless.

But when everyone was vying for this errand, Fu Rongyue never heard Wei Mingxi and Mei Xiangrong speak, nor did she hear Emperor Shou's voice.

Fu Rongyue let out a long sigh of relief, and Emperor Shou didn't speak, which means that he has no decision in his heart, and it seems that he can't get the result today.

She concentrated on using the bracelet, and soon returned to the side hall, quietly waiting for Emperor Shou's summons.

Not long after, Wei Mingxi took the lead in coming out of the main hall, followed by Wei Mingyu and Wei Mingyuan, who were expressionless. The two brothers were already on the same page in just a few days, and the two of them gave up their hands, Wei Mingyuan also nodded to Fu Rongyue, turned around and left first.

Fu Rongyue stepped forward to push Wei Mingxi's wheelchair, and Wei Mingyu's eyes kept falling on her, first surprised, and then dimmed.

Fu Rongyue couldn't do it, and lowered her head and asked Wei Mingxi: "Do you want to summon Yao Yuan over?"

"Not necessarily. Wei Mingxi shook his head: "You go out of the palace with me." ”

"But Your Majesty summoned ......" Fu Rongyue looked at the hall, she was naturally willing to go with Wei Mingxi, but Emperor Shou was afraid that something was going on.

How do you know that Wei Mingxi said in a low voice: "Don't worry, my father has a headache, and I don't have time to summon you." ”

As if to confirm his words, an inner eunuch walked out of the main hall and walked to Fu Rongyue's side: "Your Majesty has a will, it's getting late today, Princess Ling, please go back." ”

Wei Mingxi showed a look, and his tense chin couldn't help but show a shallow smile, with a little smugness.

Fu Rongyue glared at him in disgust and pushed him away from the main hall.

Wei Mingyu was one step behind the two, and seeing that Wei Mingxi and Fu Rongyue were heart-to-heart, a heart was somewhat unpleasant. The two didn't say anything along the way, but I don't know why they seemed to be extraordinarily right, and there was a kind of envy and harmony that he couldn't say. He followed the two all the way to the palace gate, the carriage was already waiting, and it was time to part ways.

Yao Yuan stepped forward to put away Wei Mingxi's wheelchair, Wei Mingxi helped Fu Rongyue to stand, his heart suddenly became uncomfortable, and he took a step forward and said softly: "Ninth brother and younger brother and sister, but this is going back to the house?"

"Hmm. Wei Mingxi didn't have a good impression of him, and his response was not much, but Fu Rongyue didn't say a word.

Wei Mingyu held back the snub of the two and said with a smile: "That's the case, I married a side concubine in my mansion, and this year I can be regarded as having half a hostess, and in a few days the autumn chrysanthemum party will be held in the mansion, and you will also come to have a good time, okay?"

"The Sixth Emperor Brother was kindly invited, he shouldn't have refused, he just ......" Wei Mingxi immediately refused.

Wei Mingyu interrupted him first: "Hey, the ninth brother doesn't like to join in the fun, but the younger brother and sister are new to Kyoto, and they are not familiar with this circle, and they will have to move around more in the future, so it is better to recognize the door! I'll go first!"

After he said that, he took a deep look at Fu Rongyue again, and really boarded the car and left.

Wei Mingxi watched him go away, and then snorted coldly: "It seems that Wei Mingyu has never given up on you." ”

"He has already married Fu Rongqin, what waves can he set off now?" Fu Rongyue scoffed, just wanting to continue to use the Mei family behind her.

When Wei Mingxi heard this, the smile in his eyes deepened a little, and he couldn't help laughing: "Since he is so looking forward to us going, then let's go, I want to see what he wants." ”

Fu Rongyue nodded and got into the carriage with him.

Wei Mingxi sent her back to the Marquis of Zhongsu's mansion and turned around and returned to the mansion by herself. Fu Rongyue waved her hand at the door, and after turning around, she saw a graceful figure in the corridor: "Miss Qu, why are you here?"

Qu Yingying walked over from under the corridor with a smile on her face: "Is it His Royal Highness the King of Ling who just sent Rong Yue back?"

She was also passing by, and when she looked at him from a distance, she stopped to peek behind the pillar.

"Hmm. Fu Rongyue didn't want to say more.

Qu Yingying couldn't help but sigh: "His Royal Highness the King of Ling is very attentive to your cousin!"

When Fu Rongyue heard this, she couldn't help but look at her strangely, Qu Yingying opened a pair of innocent eyes, and asked with a puzzled face: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Fu Rongyue was enveloped by a strange feeling, but she couldn't say anything wrong. After Cheng's departure, she had no good impression of Aunt Fangrui and Qu Yingying, and was unwilling to communicate more with Qu Yingying, so she let Qu Yingying follow, but she walked faster and faster, and soon arrived at Xiaoxiang Courtyard.

Qu Yingying wanted to take out some of Wei Mingxi's habits from her mouth, but she kept silent, Qu Yingying had nothing to do, and when Fu Rongyue entered Xiaoxiang Courtyard, she had to stomp her feet in annoyance: "If you don't tell me, I have other ways to know!"

Her eyes rolled, and she quickly had an idea in her heart: Jin'er Niang received an invitation from Zhao Wangfu, saying that it was a flower party, Fu Rongqin was Wei Mingxi's fiancΓ©e in the past, and she grew up in the capital, so she must know more than Fu Rongyue. She didn't believe it, with her ability, she went to ask Fu Rongqin, and Fu Rongqin would not tell her!

Qu Yingying turned around and went back to the autumn pear orchard, not noticing that under the big tree in Xiaoxiang Courtyard, Fu Rongyue was standing there quietly, watching all her reactions.

Back in the Xiaoxiang courtyard, Lu Qiao was anxiously waiting for her with Wang Po and Shen Po, as soon as she came in, Wang Po and Shen Po knelt on the ground with a puff, and opened their mouths sadly: "Miss, you help the old slave!"

"What's the matter, get up and talk slowly!" Fu Rongyue looked at Lu Qiao, who shook her head and motioned for her to listen first.

Wang Po and Shen Po got up, and Shen Po, who was more fragile, immediately burst into tears, and Wang Po was articulate and told everything that happened today.

At breakfast today, Fu Xingjian announced that Aunt Luo would be in charge of the house temporarily, and Aunt Fangrui would take care of the housework.

Wang Po and Shen Po have never done anything wrong, naturally they have a clear conscience, but when these new masters want to ask people to go over and set up rules, they are completely defenseless, how did they expect that Aunt Luo's yard Qu Luochun, they saw all the housekeepers kneeling on the ground, and Aunt Fangrui said: "Master Hou let me be in charge of the house, and I will be the master for the time being." Now it is an eventful autumn, the Hou Ye is cautious in the court, there are many places to use people and things, our women and Taoist people can't do open source, it's still okay to throttle, I've seen the personnel roster in the mansion, so many courtyards, each courtyard has two stewards, it's really cumbersome. ”

None of these mothers-in-law have lived for most of their lives, they are all born and raised in this Hou Mansion, and as soon as they heard this, they knew that Aunt Fang Rui was going to reduce people.

Straightforwardly, he immediately said: "But when the previous lady was there, there was no change in personnel, and the housekeepers in the house only had one or two taels of silver per month, and fifteen courtyards were only a few dozen taels of silver per month." ”

"A few dozen taels a month, how much a year, plus the part of the New Year's holidays, it's not low. Aunt Fang Rui smiled, and somehow, the conversation suddenly turned to Wang Po and Shen Po: "Wang Po, Shen Po, do you say?"
