moved, from time to time someone on the door came to inquire, Gong family Ah Qi, Ah Lin are in the concierge to take care of, because of the order of the young lady, keep a little more mind, warmly entertain the people in the concierge of each house, get a lot of news.

After more than ten days, all the parties in the family were taken care of, and Lian was a little tired after all, so he was a little tired on this day.

Ling Xiang made people clean up a warehouse, opened a stack of medicinal herbs, and asked his cousin Lian Tao to take the little guy to buy reserves in case of emergency. In addition, he asked someone to prepare the ingredients and medicinal materials for boiling Baoyuan soup, set up a silver hanging outside Qiwutang, and personally held a fan to boil it for his mother.

This soup nourishes qi and nourishes blood peiyuan, how many benefits does a woman eat, Zhang has also enjoyed it in the past, knows the benefits of beauty, waving a fan to come in, and laughing and joking that her niece and daughter said that she wants to eat it.

Ling Xiang planned to boil two pots slowly, and while watching the fire, he sent someone to ask Ah Lin to inquire about the situation in the neighborhood.

When Ah Lin heard the girl's call, he didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly brushed off the dust on his body, and used the newly assigned grate to grate his hair a few times, before he followed Wen Qin with a red face and rushed to Qiwutang.

Wen Qin and her mother and brother first arrived in Liufu, and they didn't know anything about the master, not only talking about girls, but also dressing up before leaving the pavilion, she thought that Ling Makeup was really a young lady in the boudoir. Seeing Ah Lin's nervous situation, he was slightly funny, but he didn't dare to ridicule, he only secretly slandered: The girl's fairy-like appearance is not coveted by subordinates.

The courtyard of Qiwutang has been planted with gardenias, just in the flower season, the courtyard is full of fragrant floating, surrounded by white green jade, Ling makeup is wearing a very light right blue silk cotton skirt, except for the lake green ribbon with a wishful knot around the waist hanging without embellishment, but it is more majestic, slender waist grip, plain hand waving the fan, it seems to bring a streamer.

Ah Lin actually has no blasphemy, the beauty of the girl, in his heart like the South China Sea Guanyin Bodhisattva, at a glance, full of piety, just want to be able to serve the girl's family in this life, is the liver and brain, naturally also infinitely happy.

Ling Xiang gently asked Ah Lin to sit down.

Ah Lin excused himself a few times, and saw his sister smiling and patting the washed stone steps to sit on her head, so she thanked her again and again, and rubbed her ass at the bottom of the steps.

The master and servant pulled up the family routine under the guidance of Ling Makeup, she was originally a practitioner of medicine, "asking" is a means, and under the persuasion, Ah Lin expressed it very clearly.

After chatting about tea, I realized that the left neighbor was actually the lord of Danjun who had a relationship in Hangzhou back then. It's a pity that the county lord of Nadan has passed away for two years, and now the mansion is very different from when the county lord was there.

The lord of Danjun left only one son, the county master was born in the imperial examination, and he had no foundation, but he was just a national eunuch, regarded as a six-grade Beijing official, and had no real power. The remarried wife Xu is quite strong, and the son left by the county lord is only general. Su Gongzi is nineteen years old, because of his mother's filial piety, he has not yet married a wife, and people say that the county lord has thousands of choices back then, and he always feels that no one's daughter is worthy of his own son. Fortunately, the brother of the lord of Danjun was crowned the prince of Yuyang County, and Su Gongzi's maternal grandmother was still alive, and from time to time he took the prince to the palace Panhuan, it is said that Su Gongzi is as gentle as jade, and he is very popular among the royal family.

Ling Xiang silently wrote down, thinking that Su Gongzi's uncle was a county king, and the people of the world knew that the king of Nanyang praised the Chinese book and led the six departments, and he won the emperor's heart, and had the authority under one person and above ten million people, which was a high position that these ordinary people in his own family could not think of, and now it is not difficult to turn a corner and climb up.

Let people go to the treasury to pick up the gifts they bought with Lian Tao a few days ago, and ask Feizheng to take people to pick up a few boxes of jewelry and precious medicinal materials in the dowry box.

After Ah Qi finished speaking, he had already relaxed, and said briskly: "Girl, the family on the right side of our family also has a lot of background, but now the official position in the court is much higher than that of the old county Ma Ye." ”

Ling Xiang naturally knew that the royal son-in-law could not get any important position, that is, a concubine, and he was hopeless in his career for life, and the husband of the lord of Nadan was not bad, but she didn't explain, she only asked with a smile: "What kind of official is it?"

Ah Lin gave a thumbs up: "That's the champion appointed by the emperor in the first few years, known as Ruan Lang's mansion, what is the name of the current official in charge of the sacrifice, Shaoqing, is the fourth grade!

Local people always think that the prefect is the boss and the boss's official, especially those who have never read a book like the Gong family's father and son, but in fact, in Beijing, the nobles are everywhere, and the four-grade Beijing officials are not sesame mung bean officials, but they are not very committed, but most of the descendants of the Xungui Mansion do not have such a level of real employment.

"It's Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, right?" Zhang's insightful everywhere he wanted, and he grabbed the lead in front of Ling Makeup and spoke, "You monkey, you can't talk three or four." ”

Ah Lin was originally tall and lean, and he said that he was a monkey. Their brothers, father and son, who had been working in the boat gang before, had come into contact with the soft-spoken hostess, who was teased at this time, and couldn't help scratching their ears and cheeks, their faces were purple and black, and they couldn't hold back their words for a long time.

Ling Makeup lifted the lid to see the heat, Pindi quickly got up and grabbed it in his head, and whispered, "Girl, be careful." ”

Ling Xiang smiled at her, thinking in his heart that it was a pity that this Ruan Zhuangyuan was Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, if only Shaoqing of Dali Temple would be fine.

Zhang asked about Ruan Shaoqing's situation again.

Ah Lin Fang accepted the face, stood up and replied: "The population is simple, the old lady Ruan is alive at home, Ruan Shaoqing has a younger brother who works in the Ministry of Industry, it seems that he has no grade, and he lives in his brother's mansion with his family and does not divide the family. Last time, the slave maid went to settle the deed with her uncle, and it was this Ruan Second Master who came to their family. Mrs. Ruan is a fellow villager of Shaoqing, as if she has never seen anything in the world, and she doesn't care about eating Changzhai. There are two aunts in the house, and the ladies have no out, and the aunts have a few sons and young ladies under their knees. The rest of the Nguyen clan are all in their hometowns. ”

Zhang asked again: "On the other side of the street, there are also high-ranking families, do you know who lives there?"

Ah Lin replied: "I heard the porter of the Danjun lord's house say that opposite is the house built by a young son born to the king of Xianweicheng, who was originally named the general of Zhenguo. The prince of Weicheng is a descendant of the king, his own family is no longer allowed to be crowned king, he has become a duke, and his brothers are not harmonious, and he handed the paper to the front of the palace, saying that this general of the town is not filial to his mother, and he was demoted to an auxiliary general, and there is a will in the palace to make him think about it, and he is to thank the guests behind closed doors, and the court is very cold. ”

Da Yin since the Taizu set the country has gone through nine generations of emperors, nearly two hundred years of reproduction, resulting in a huge clan, the early years of the founding of the prince on the policy of the prince gradually changed, since the Shunzuo Dynasty, the children of the clan are demoted to the title, in addition to the princes, the father of the lord of the Dan county Lu Cheng Wang is a special case of breaking the exception to mention the prince.

King Lu Cheng was originally a cousin of today's saint, and he performed well in the battle of Emperor Shunzuo more than 30 years ago and became Emperor Shunzuo's right-hand man. According to the old practice of dividing the Great Yin clan, King Lu Cheng was originally the concubine of King Yanhui, and according to the rules, he could only be crowned as a county king at most, and generally lived near the fief of King Yan.

From the word "Cheng" of King Lu's nickname, it is not difficult to feel Emperor Shunzuo's affirmation of this cousin, and after the death of King Lu Cheng, his eldest son attacked the throne of Lu, not to mention, he also received the important position of Zongren Mansion Zuo Zongzheng, and the rest of the sons were all crowned county kings, which can be described as a great grace. Like the auxiliary general on the opposite side is the son of the king of Weicheng, the king of Weicheng is also the cousin of the current saint, and now his eldest son has only attacked the duke, this should have been a prince and only fished the last auxiliary general, which is in stark contrast to the line of the king of Lu.

Emperor Shunzuo was a very powerful emperor, and he was quite sympathetic to the people, but for his clan relatives, he was really not a benevolent lord.

When he ascended the throne, the country had been established for a long time, the clan was multiplying, and the annual expenditure became a burden on the treasury. What's more, Emperor Shunzuo ascended the throne bloodily, and in the eight years before and after his accession to the throne, he beheaded three brothers and four brothers, and many members of the royal family were involved in the big case. In addition to King Yan and King Lu, the rest of the princes and princes were left with only the sons of Emperor Shunzuo and an adult grandson, these two kings were considered to be ancestors who stood on the right side and blessed their descendants.

A dynasty has been in decline for about 200 years, and it has become corrupt in the hands of Emperor Shunzuo's father, Emperor Dezong Yizong, and the people have a heavy tax burden, and there have been many riots. It's just that the emperor inevitably rejoiced in his later years, squandered the treasury to build palaces, and gradually greedy for pleasure, which was very different from the early years of Shunzuo Zhongxing.

The prince's daughter, the lord of Dan, married the county horse but a six-grade official, if it is a child of the family, it is reasonable to be a white dress, but his family has no foundation, it is simply ridiculous and generous, it is a big marriage, it is said that even this mansion is the marriage of the county lord.

Ling Makeup thought about it, the title of the county lord has always been respected by the two words, the lord of Dan County is obviously not the daughter of King Lu Cheng, and although the King Lu who is now attacked is her brother, she is not very close, and contacted Ah Lin to say that Su Gongzi's uncle is a county king, and his grandmother is the princess of the county, so there is no need to ask more, Ling Makeup is also very clear about the relationship.

Ah Lin also said that the auxiliary general opposite is next to a Chen surnamed Fujia Mansion, I heard that the brothers are undertaking a lot of big work in the Ministry of Industry and the Craftsman Division, and they also bought officials to do, as for what officials, he can't say, only said that he has a generous demeanor and has competed with the surrounding imperial relatives and eunuchs, and there must be another backer.

There are three or four families far away, there are court officials and big businessmen, although this Zhu Yifang is only medium-sized in Beijing, but each family occupies a large area, the gates are far away, and there are only these few in the whole workshop.
