Chapter 502: Chaotic Life

I don't know where the rumors in Beijing blew up, but they really spread it, causing countless people to talk about it, and some people were secretly moved.

The position of the crown prince of the East Palace is already very stable, and there are various gossip that the emperor is deliberately handing over power and slowly transferring all major affairs in the court to the prince for disposal. Not to mention whether the emperor wants to train his son or plans to abdicate, it means that the prince is about to take power. There is no heir in the East Palace, and a new person will be added many years later, it is said that Chen Liangyuan is still favored by the prince, although she will not cross the princess Tang and Chen Liangdi, but she should be treated well, and the prince is also very kind and concerned about her. Now that I have just entered the East Palace, there is such a good day, if I give birth to the emperor and grandson in the future, wouldn't it be even more beautiful? With her as a demonstration, many official eunuchs with daughters can't help but have some thoughts, thinking that what would happen if their daughters entered the East Palace?

Chen Liangyuan's conditions in all aspects are not very outstanding, and there are many daughters of official families in the capital who are better than her, but the characteristics of her family's many sons are obvious, and her temperament has passed the test of the queen mother and the emperor. But in this world, it is not only the daughters of families with many sons and grandchildren who can give birth to sons, as long as they are healthy, many people feel that their daughters are not lost to Chen Liangyuan at all, and they also dislike her for not being smart enough, elegant enough and slightly fat. If Donggong really relaxes the draft conditions, their daughter is also very promising. With their family's better conditions than Chen Liangyuan's mother's family, as long as their daughter can give birth to a son and a half daughter after entering the East Palace, decades of wealth will be stable!

Even if you can't be a high-ranking official? Power is not something that only high-ranking officials can have. The Marquis of Yongjia has no official position except for a title, but the weight of a word he says in front of the emperor, who in the Manchu Dynasty can underestimate it? The Tu family is implicated in the great crime of rebellion, just because it is the queen mother's mother's family, he has saved the life of the Heclan, and even the wealth and glory are not much worse than before. That's the good thing about relatives!

Some people are ambitious, and they may not be able to see the disadvantages in their eyes, and only go for the benefits. Originally, the rumors in the capital only suddenly arose, circulating in a few thriving teahouses and taverns or in the streets and alleys, although they could reach the ears of many people, but they had no foundation, and it would not take long for them to slowly dissipate. But now many people have given birth to private, which has actually contributed to the spread of these rumors, and within a few days, from top to bottom, all officials and officials, there are people talking about it.

Some important ministers and imperial historians believe that the concubines selected by the East Palace must not be selected from the big families, so as not to sit on the throne of the relatives and may also hurt the face of the crown princess; There are even good deeds who have a list of unmarried daughters of the families of the noble officials and eunuchs in the capital who have a little status, and they kick out the people who are obviously weaker than others, and those who are not rich in the family are also kicked out, and the concubines are also kicked out, and then the rest of the people are lined up and make a list, thinking that they can be considered by the royal family......

The daughter on the list, many of her parents and family members are afraid of it, and they are busy, explaining that they have no intention of sending a daughter to be selected, and at the same time privately looking for a son-in-law candidate, so as to set their daughter's marriage as soon as possible, so as not to really make the royal family take a fancy to it; Of course, if you really enter the East Palace, Liangyuan is the most basic, and if you can earn a good fortune, it will be great. There should be two Liangdi, and there are six Liangyuan, and the position of the title is higher, when the prince ascends the throne in the future, when the concubine in the backyard is given the title of concubine, the position can be better than others!

The circle of officials and magnates in the capital gradually became chaotic.

Under such a premise, the Yao family of the Chengenhou Mansion began to worry about the marriage of his son Qin Jian again. On weekdays, if you want to marry a powerful daughter, you are a little reluctant to rely on the name of the Chengenhou Mansion alone, but now, aren't many daughters of high-ranking families anxious to find their in-laws? Yao felt that it was a good opportunity for his son, so he planned to take the opportunity to pick a good one. As for the words handed over by her mother's Yao family, she didn't take it to heart when she wanted to find someone for the Yao family's nieces and nephews.

The Yao family is mediocre in Beijing, so where do they need to worry about it? A few nieces and nephews are not stunning, and the East Palace may not be able to look up to them! Why rush to compete with those high-ranking daughters for young talents at this time? Although after this wave, the young talents in the capital may be almost selected, and the daughters of the Yao family may want to marry some people with slightly inferior conditions. But there are still good candidates outside Beijing, and there may be good talents among the new jinshi in Jinke? The people of the Yao family can look for them by themselves, and they don't need her, a foreign-married girl, to come forward.

While preparing for their daughter's marriage, the Yao family began to focus on the daughters of the real high-ranking families. The first thing she set an eye on was Cai Yuanzhen, the eldest lady of Yunyang Houfu.

She said in front of her husband Qin Zhonghai: "On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Jinhua's birthday, I see that Miss Cai also follows Yue Niang to meet people everywhere and talk, maybe the news of the Yunyang Hou Mansion is earlier than us, so since then I have intended to see each other for my daughter." The children of the Cai family have always married later than others, and Miss Cai's age is really not young, if the palace really wants to change the conditions of the draft, she will definitely be selected. How could she be willing to be inferior to others with such a background? At this time, even if she was picky in the past, she can no longer be picky. There are few people in the capital who are worthy of Miss Cai, and there are very few people who are suitable, and even fewer can stand out like our Brother Jian. It's rare that our two families are in-laws, let Yue Niang help say good things, this family affair is a certainty! The second master hurriedly thought of a son and handed over a message to his niece! If he can ask his wife to speak, Yue Niang will definitely agree to help!"

Qin Zhonghai looked at her speechlessly, and put down the book in his hand: "What are you busy with?" It is precisely because we and the Cai family are in-laws, and we have been married twice, and asking Brother Jian to marry Miss Cai is the third time, which is too much." The Yunyang Hou Mansion is also a family with military power, the second room has been separated from us, Yue Niang is a niece, and she can't be regarded as the daughter of our two Hou Mansions, but it's okay. If we really let the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion marry the biological daughter of the Marquis of Yunyang, then the meaning will be different. You don't want to think about it, can our family afford it? What do you think the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince will think?!"

Yao Shi was stunned for a moment, and was shocked: "No, it's not ......."

Qin Zhonghai picked up the book again: "Although we are also the Hou Mansion, we are not the same as the third room. Without that saint, you can just live honestly. Why bother to go to Xiao to think about so many things that you don't have? Brother Jian'er's family affairs, I know it in my heart, don't worry about it, hurry up and prepare a dowry for Jinhua, it's serious. The Tang family has already said that when Tang Han finishes the Shu Jishi exam, he will get married, and it will not be a few days, you are not in a hurry, when something goes wrong, you will lose the face of your daughter for the rest of her life!"

"Can I still not care? That's my own flesh and blood! Yao said disapprerovingly, "But the son's marriage, second master, you have made it clear to me, what do you mean? You always say that you know it in your heart, but I don't know it in my heart! You refuse to tell me clearly." Although we are not as prominent as the third room, and our marquis is not as decent as the third uncle in the palace, but it is also a family. The third uncle treats Brother Jian well, is it possible that Brother Jian can't marry the daughter of a wealthy family? I still hope that he can say that he is a good family, and in the future, he can borrow the power of his father-in-law, and he can be promoted smoothly as an official!"

Qin Zhonghai continued to read the book and ignored her.

Yao couldn't hold his breath: "The second master is actually coaxing me, right? If you really have a number, your son is so old, you would have told him about his family affairs a long time ago, and you can still delay it until today? Since the second master doesn't care about Brother Jian'er's family affairs, I, my mother-in-law, can't ignore it. Miss Cai doesn't succeed, and it's not that there are no other suitable daughters in the capital. Last time, I saw several daughters of Xu Shangshu's family in the Fuguo Mansion, and the second girl of his family is not bad......"

"Don't make a mess!" Qin Zhonghai couldn't help but slap the book on the table, "Let me tell you the truth! The third uncle is looking at Brother Jian for him, and he is the daughter of Shoushan Bofu." You've seen people too, and I used to like them, so I guess I won't have any opinions. It's just that now everything has not been decided, you don't have to shout everywhere, ruining the reputation of other girls, and destroying the original stable family affairs!"

Yao Shi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately showed joy: "The eldest lady of the Yu family, is it really her? The third uncle can really say this family matter of the Yu family for Brother Jian?!"

Qin Zhonghai sighed: "The third uncle is good friends with Shoushanbo, and Brother Jian has been asking Shoushanbo for homework these days, and he has also befriended Gongzi Yu. This is all a favor from the third uncle and three aunts. If everything can fall into place, the family affair will also be done. No matter how bad it is, our son can get a good teacher. So, don't make trouble, don't talk nonsense outside, and don't pick and choose other people's daughters. In front of Shoushan Bofu, our son can't talk about any family background, only the benefits of good conduct and consistent concentration. Don't hold your son back!"

Yao's family once thought about marrying Yu Xinlan for his son, but after a long time, he always felt that there was no hope, but now he heard that things can be done, and his son can still worship such a famous teacher as Shou Shanbo, and his heart suddenly calmed down: "Look at what the second master said, my own son, the meat that fell from his body, can I still not hurt? How could I possibly drag him back? Miss Yu is very good, although her temperament is a little higher, and she dances and writes all day long, and she doesn't know if she understands the things of Zhongyu......

Yao habitually disliked two sentences, but when he saw Qin Zhonghai's unpleasant gaze, he immediately changed his words with a dry smile: "But she is still young, after she marries, I will teach it slowly." I'm not very old, and I need such a capable daughter-in-law to do it? They have been idle for ten or eight years, and when the children are older, I will teach my daughter-in-law to be a housekeeper, and it will be the same......."

Qin Zhonghai curled the corners of his mouth, lowered his head with a smile, and did not tell his wife the truth.

When the daughter-in-law enters the door, the middle feed of this family no longer needs to worry about Yao. She should stay honest, whether it is reciting Buddhism, doing needlework, or studying for a few years to cultivate her self-cultivation, so as to save some trouble, such as putting money on prints, selling her niece's marriage, etc., causing trouble for the Qin family and leaving hidden dangers for her children and grandchildren. The Qin family is already extremely wealthy, and it is only right to live honestly and low-key, and there is no need to drill those illusory powers.
