"Xiang'er meets my aunt!" Gu Jialuo knelt respectfully and saluted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the big kang near the window in the west room, the Feng family's eldest aunt Ji Shi sat on the right side, she is already forty and six this year, but she looks like she is only in her early thirties, and she is very well maintained.
I saw that she had fair skin, upright and elegant facial features, and a strong bookish atmosphere and dignified and elegant nobility from the inside out.
Except for when he laughs, the corners of his eyes are slightly wrinkled, and from head to toe, there is no trace of the passage of time.
Thick black hair completes the high bun, revealing rich and rich earlobes, people say that people with thick earlobes are blessed, and Ji is indeed a blessed woman, born in a scholarly family, a harmonious family since childhood, and married a young man named 'Feng Yulang' in the capital.
After marrying into the Feng family, the mother-in-law, the mother-in-law is loving, several uncles and the only sister-in-law are also well-behaved and obedient, and the husband is a good man in a thousand miles - the prince's companion, the youngest and most beautiful champion of the Great Qi Dynasty, and the future is limitless.
However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, after Ji became the grandmother of the Feng family, Xu was too smooth, and God was a little jealous, so he moved his fingers and added some 'trouble' to Ji's.
Not half a year after the Ji family passed the door, the old lady of the Feng family and Feng Yanshou's grandfather died.
Feng Yanshou, as the eldest grandson, was born in the Ruyang Feng family, which is famous for his filial piety, and kept his filial piety for his grandfather for three years.
However, just after the grandfather's filial piety period, the grandmother died of illness, so Feng Yanshou and his wife continued to keep filial piety.
In this way, it has been six years, and in the past few years, Feng Yanshou has delayed not only his career, but also his heirs.
It was easy to keep filial piety to his grandmother, the crown prince also ascended the throne and became the emperor, and Feng Yanshou re-entered the Hanlin Academy.
Ji also began to condition his body and prepare to have a child.
At this time, the king of Shu rebelled and caused chaos in the capital, Feng Yanshou was the sage's hardcore henchman, and the Feng family became the focus of the siege of the chaotic army.
Feng Yanshou was trapped in the palace, and the Ji family served his in-laws, took care of his uncle and sister-in-law, and gritted his teeth to protect the entire Feng family.
In the rebellion, in order to save her mother-in-law, Ji's pregnancy was unfortunately miscarried after three months.
The mother-in-law was frightened, and blamed herself for the miscarriage of her daughter-in-law, and after the rebellion subsided, she couldn't afford to fall ill, and in less than half a month, she went.
It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, his mother died, and Feng Yanshou could only worry.
But the Feng family seems to have suffered a curse, the funerals are one after another, the Feng family's wife has been dead for two and a half years, and she has just completed her sentence, oh no, it was a few months after her filial piety, Feng Yanshou was just about to recover, and the old man Feng suddenly died again.
Yes, Feng Yanshou had to continue to worry.
And so it was another six years.
After more than ten years of desertion, the Feng family almost disappeared in the capital.
Fortunately, Feng Yanshou is a real talent, even if it is Ding Wei, he is not idle, while copying Buddhist scriptures for his parents and keeping filial piety in the countryside, he spent several years re-annotating the four books and other classics.
In addition, based on the travelogues and codex of many predecessors, as well as his own experiences in traveling and studying when he was young, he compiled a highly practical agricultural book - "The Complete Book of Agricultural Administration".
During the Sage's Longevity Festival, Feng Yanshou was offered as a birthday gift.
The sage was very happy to see the sets of books, especially the set of "The Complete Book of Agricultural Administration", which can be called an encyclopedia of agriculture, and he and Feng Yanshou were iron buddies who had been through the same window, carried guns, prostitutes, and shared the spoils.
I pulled a good errand in the court, and found that the two Huai were still missing a salt envoy, this is a very important messenger, it can be said that it is half a money bag of the Great Qi Dynasty, this kind of oil and water is a vital position, or handed over to his own family is the most assured.
In addition, the salt affairs in Jiangnan are eroded, the dead eyes are flooded, and the salt tax collected is getting less and less, and the fool also knows that there is a problem with the salt politics of Lianghuai, and he needs a person with a tenacious character, a strong mind, a smart and capable person, and a person with good roots to govern.
The sage took the requirements and compared them one by one, and found that the two Huai Du Salt Envoys were simply official positions tailored for Feng Yanshou.
So, as soon as the Feng family got rid of filial piety, the sage smashed down a holy decree and ordered Feng Yanshou to go to Jiangnan to collect salt taxes for him.
Feng Yanshou is really a practical talent, received the holy decree, and went to Yangzhou with his family without saying a word.
There were not only a master and servant of the Feng family, but also more than a dozen coffins.
There are similar examples in ancient times, which shows the determination and deterrence of those who are in charge - the officials and salt merchants in Yangzhou should pay attention, this lord has come to be the salt envoy, he is gambling his life, and which of you who is not afraid of death should come to greet you.
But the question is, Feng Yanshou, you just bring your own coffin, why do you bring so many coffins?!
Some well-intentioned people counted and found that even with Feng Yanshou's wife and four younger brothers who had just gotten married, the family had a total of ten coffins, and in addition to the Feng family, there were several left.
Someone with a heart went back and counted again, and found that the officials who had anything to do with the two Huai salt affairs were no more, no less, exactly eight or nine people, and the remaining nine coffins were exactly opposite!
…… Peat, Feng Yanshou is too insidious, he just took his life to take office, and he actually wanted to drag the officials of the two Huai Salt Affairs to the Hades Palace.
In addition to the mouthful of black lacquer coffins, Feng Yanshou also brought hundreds of guards, known as 'Jiading', but they were actually extraordinary Praetorian Guards.
The coffin shows Feng Yanshou's ruthlessness and determination, and the 'family members' represent that Feng Yanshou did not come to Yangzhou with his bare hands, but brought enough 'thugs'.
In addition, Feng Yanshou is the companion of the sage and a hardcore confidant, and the sage gave him the right to perform the secret fold, and he can make small reports to the emperor anytime and anywhere without any restrictions.
Feng Yanshou was ready to go to Yangzhou, and ruthlessly cracked down on illegal salt merchants and corrupt officials with an iron fist with both hands, and in just one year's effort, he pulled down several big officials such as the prefect of Yangzhou and the salt envoy Tongzhi, and successively copied the homes of several salt merchants who were so rich that they could only die, and at the end of the year, they transported to the capital a salt tax that was nearly four times that of last year, as well as a boatload of cheap official salt.
The sage Dayue praised Feng Yanshou several times at the court meeting as a 'capable minister' and his 'humerus'.
With the strong support of the sage, Feng Yanshou continued to make drastic rectifications in Yangzhou, but in just three years, he cleared the salt affairs of Lianghuai.
For the next three years, a large amount of salt taxes and official salt were donated to the imperial court, which directly enriched the treasury of Daqi.
The sage became more and more happy, but Feng Yanshou did not want to stay in one place all the time, taking advantage of the convenience of being in the south of the Yangtze River, he collected a lot of information on Western trade, gave the sage a secret fold, and suggested that the market should be reopened and the customs should be rectified.
To put it bluntly, it is to open foreign trade checkpoints and collect taxes!
With a large amount of salt tax supplements, the treasury of Daqi is full of a lot, but no one will be afraid of too much money. The saint's mausoleum is still being built, and it is at a time when a lot of silver is needed.
Therefore, as soon as he heard about the good thing of 'collecting taxes', the sage suddenly became interested, carefully studied Feng Yanshou's secret folds, and found that it was still necessary to open the yamen of the City Division.
The saint is not a stupid emperor who does not eat minced meat, in his spare time, he will change into civilian clothes and go out of the palace to visit the streets and visit the people. And the most profitable business on East Street is the silver building, money bank and Western shop. In particular, Western shops are simply a profiteering industry.
Many powerful people in Beijing have quietly set foot in this industry, and even a few princes who have gone out of the palace to build mansions have secretly mixed in.
The saint has Jin Linwei in his hands, as well as secret folds, so he knows a lot of insiders.
Even with it, I also know all kinds of huge profits and cats of Western foreign trade.
Seeing that Feng Yanshou mentioned this piece, the sage was moved, and discussed with several cabinet scholars, and finally announced the reopening of the Yamen of the City Shipping Division, which was built in Quanzhou, and Feng Yanshou was the first director of the City Shipping Division.
So, Feng Yanshou took his family and went directly to Quanzhou.
After several years of hard work, Feng Yanshou made the operation of the city ship company prosperous, and the annual customs duties collected were almost the same as the salt tax, and a large amount of real money and silver flowed into the treasury of Daqi and the inner treasury of the sage along the sea.
In the eyes of the saints and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Feng Yanshou has become a symbol of the 'God of Wealth'.
Therefore, after Feng Yanshou stayed in Quanzhou for six years, he was recalled to Beijing by the sage and directly appointed as the head of the household department, and the God of Wealth was the chief steward of the finances, and the monarchs and ministers all voted in favor.
After leaving Beijing for more than ten years, Feng Yanshou finally returned to the capital, and Ji and Feng Yanshou shared honors, life and death together, and naturally came back in style.
Seeing his niece who he hadn't seen for many years, Ji was very happy, took Gu Jialuo's hand, and asked her about her recent situation and the situation of the Gu family.
Gu Jialuo told the truth.
For the Feng family, Gu Jialuo has a deep affection, the Feng family is not only her closest relative, but also one of her strongest backers, whether it is for feelings or interests, she has to get along with her uncle and aunt.
Yao Xiruo and Gu Jialuo are worthy of being 'good sisters', although the two hate each other, their brainwaves can occasionally collide together.
Gu Jialuo went to Feng's house to brush up on his sense of existence, and Yao Xiruo also went to the palace to find a backer to contact his feelings.
"The Queen Mother, this is a new pill made by the people's daughter, and one pill is used every day, which can not only nourish yin and nourish blood, but also prolong life,"
Yao Xiruo held a brocade box in both hands and said respectfully.
"Oh? Take it and I'll take a look. ”
The Queen Mother is nearly seventy years old, but she is very well maintained, and at first glance she looks like she is in her early fifties. Listening to Yao Xiruo's words, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes.
For an old man in his twilight, 'longevity' is the most attractive, and the Queen Mother is willing to pay any price in order to live a few more years.
And Yao Xiruo's medical skills, the Queen Mother has personally experienced, although she feels that it is a little strange that she has such amazing medical skills at a young age, but the Queen Mother is not a judge who tries cases, she doesn't care what the reason and process, as long as the result is good, it is enough.
Besides, the pills that Yao Xiruo paid tribute to would be tested by the digital doctors of the Tai Hospital, and after it was determined that they were harmless, the Queen Mother would take them, and the Queen Mother did not need to worry about the problems with these medicines at all.
The female official next to the Queen Mother took the brocade box and held it for the Queen Mother to check, and the Queen Mother glanced at it and didn't pay attention to it anymore, but talked to Yao Xiruo about family life.
After a few words of greeting, Yao Xiruo said in embarrassment: "...... There is one thing, the folk girl wants to ask for the grace of the queen mother......"
