Chapter 405: Human Heart
Seeing that his wife mentioned Jiangnan, Li Yuanche was also very helpless. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the Jiangzhou Wang family has gradually evacuated Jiangnan, his wife was born in a Jiangnan family.
This time, after the news of his wife's pregnancy spread, there will definitely be people in Jiangnan who will come to Beijing to visit.
It's just that he discussed with his ministers today about the tax reform for the wealthy families in Jiangnan. If someone from Jiangnan comes at this moment, I'm afraid that my wife's ears will not be clean.
Li Yuanche knew very well that with the efficiency of Mr. Fushan and others, it would only take three or five days to work hard, and this tax reform would be announced to the world, and when the time came, I was afraid that it would just run into people from Jiangnan.
Thinking of his wife's possible embarrassment, Li Yuanche couldn't help but bow his head and rub his sweetheart's chin.
"Gently," he couldn't bear to make it difficult for her, especially when she was pregnant, "or we'll be gone." ”
Although it is a bit unkind to not let the mother's family come to the court to meet the pregnant wife. But everyone knows that those people from the Jiangnan family probably didn't have any good intentions.
This time, they came to Beijing to see their wives, ostensibly to congratulate the emperor on her pregnancy; But in fact, he just wanted to take this opportunity to enter Beijing to build some good relations.
During this time, with the increase in contacts between the noble families of the previous dynasty and the Jiangnan family, Li Yuanche had clearly felt something.
He knew that those people probably wanted to take advantage of his wife's pregnancy at this time and wanted to make some fuss in the harem!
But how can they enter their wishes!
What Li Yuanche was worried about, Wang Jiqing could naturally think of it. Even, as a woman, she is more sensitive to the affairs of harem women.
But it was precisely because of this sensitivity that she knew that at this time, she couldn't avoid people from Jiangnan.
Otherwise, a reputation that is pampered and arrogant, and whose six relatives do not recognize it, will fall on her head.
Although she doesn't care about this, she refuses to bear this black cauldron for those who have ill intentions.
"Ah Che," Wang Ji stroked her husband's side face behind her lightly, her expression was gentle and firm, "The people of Jiangnan, I still want to meet." ”
If she doesn't see it, how can she let those people die?
Besides, after so many months, I am afraid that some people have forgotten the story of the man and the scarecrow.
At this time, it is also time to deepen and deepen the image of them.
Thinking of this, Wang Jiqing suddenly remembered the dowry left by her grandmother, and couldn't help but smile slyly at Li Yuanche.
"Ah Che, do you guess how much dowry those noble ladies in Jiangnan are willing to give for their daughters?"
Trousseau? Li Yuanche was stunned when he heard this.
This is so good, how can you mention the dowry of those Miss Jiangnan?
However, as soon as he looked at his wife's expression, he knew that his light must have thought of some good idea, so that he would be so calm and a little proud of a little woman.
"Gently, what are you going to do? Well? He took his wife's hand and asked with some curiosity.
His wife is the smartest woman in the world, and her endless ideas are always exciting and bright.
Wang Jiqing did not answer her husband's question, but shook her head with a smile, and an inexplicable brilliance flashed in her eyes.
"You'll find out in a few days." It's not that she doesn't tell him, but the matter of these women's back house should not be bothered by him, the lord of the Son of Heaven.
Besides, this is what she, the queen mother, should do to deal with the affairs of the harem. Although, those women have not yet entered the palace and will not enter the palace.
………………………………………………………………..
Wang Jiqing's expectation was right, five days later, she received an invitation from Jiangnan to see the excerpt.
It's just that she didn't expect that among the noble ladies who entered Beijing from Jiangnan this time, the leader was Mrs. Xie of the Xie family in Jinling.
As far as she knew, the Xie family had already reached an agreement with Li Yuanche, and her grandmother, Mrs. Xie, should have been angry with the Xie family a long time ago.
It stands to reason that the affairs of the imperial court and the Jiangnan family, the Xie family has not had time to retreat, so how can they get involved?
But at this time, how could Mrs. Xie, who is the clan wife of the Xie clan in Jinling, enter Beijing?
Wang Ji thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out the joints.
Hey, it seems that my predecessors didn't deceive me, this is really a stupid pregnancy for three years!
After a sigh, Wang Ji chuckled and shook her head.
That's it, I still don't want to think about it, and when my cousin and aunt enter the palace, I will know.
Wang Ji lightly put down the invitation fold in his hand, and nodded at the little eunuch who was waiting on the side.
"If the palace is free tomorrow afternoon, let's announce that those ladies will enter the palace after tomorrow afternoon." This kind of thing, of course, is better to be resolved quickly, and Wang Jiqing doesn't want to drag these bad things to the back.
Besides, this ostrich mentality is not her style.
In her opinion, while her stomach is not very obvious now, she can just spare her energy to deal with this matter, and it will be a permanent trouble.
After dealing with the affairs of Jiangnan, she can prepare for this thousand-year-old catastrophe with all her heart.
After all, this matter is the most important and deadly thing for her.
Early in the morning of the second day, several ladies from Jiangnan entered the palace in advance and waited on the side of the hall.
Although they were only seen after noon, according to the rules, these ladies entered the palace and waited for them at midnight.
After the little eunuch who was the celebrant finished explaining the rules of the audience, Mrs. Bai from Yangzhou saw that Mrs. Xie did not move, so she had to take a step forward and walk to the little eunuch's side.
"Little father-in-law, thank you for your hard work." As she spoke, Madame Bai took out a silver ticket from her sleeve and stuffed it into the little father-in-law's hand without a trace of fireworks.
Seeing that the little eunuch accepted the silver ticket without a trace of hesitation, the smile on Madame Bai's face became more and more obvious.
"Little father-in-law, I wonder if my mother is okay lately?" Now there is only one queen mother in the palace, and the mother in the mouth of the white lady naturally refers to the queen and the queen.
After listening to Mrs. Bai's words, the little eunuch couldn't help but think of Sister Bai Zhi's instructions, but on the surface, she looked miserable and shook her head.
"Not so good." While secretly looking at the expressions of several ladies, he continued, "Niangniang has been seriously happy recently, she can't eat or sleep well, and everyone is a lot haggard!" ”
After listening to the words of the little eunuch, several ladies from Jiangnan looked anxious on the surface, but secretly they were happy.
Is that really the case? The ladies were all born and raised, so how could they not know that this woman was pregnant?
In their minds, Wang Jiqing at this time probably didn't have the energy to serve the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
"Little father-in-law," Madame Bai asked as if she was concerned, "Niangniang is unwell at this time, and I don't know Your Majesty's ......."
When Madame Bai said this, she stopped, and just looked at the little eunuch on the side with her eyes.
She knew that there were some things that she couldn't say. In particular, this inquiry into the life of the emperor and queen is naturally a taboo of the heavenly family. (To be continued.) )
