374 Breaking the Conspiracy

When Murong Zhang saw her admit it, he secretly said in his heart: Isn't it that the emperor has known for a long time, but it is such a big matter, how can a few princesses toss. He values Feng Ge, but it does not mean that he values the Yuluan sisters, after all, Feng Ge proposed the new market charter, that is, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Household officials are highly praised, after reading it, and it has been improved, and now the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are full of expectations for the new market in the lotus. As soon as it was completed, all the shops and stalls were owned by the imperial court.

Before it was built, the head of the household was holding an abacus to calculate how much silver he could earn in a year.

On the Ministry of Industry, it is estimated that the project will be invested in silver.

Murong Zhang had read Jiang Ruoning's charter from the Ministry of Industry, and it was well written, with good diction and calligraphy, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry who were proficient in engineering were mellow again, almost impeccable, and even the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate shut up one by one after a series of inquiries.

The houses and land in the Ruijun Wangfu can't be sold, but they can't be deserted, and they can be put into a new market and make money.

Murong Zhang said: "What do you think, talk to the imperial brother." ”

Jiang Ruoning repeated what he said in the imperial study that day, but he was more deliberate when he spoke to the emperor, and he also exaggerated the various interests he envisioned, and also calculated an account with Murong Zhang.

Outside the Zhengyang Palace, Murong Zhuo had been standing there quietly, breathing frequently to listen to Jiang Ruoning's words. Although he didn't know much about the Ministry of Industry, Jiang Ruoning said it was simple and easy to understand, and he also listened to it for eight points, and understood what was going on, and naturally he also understood the matter of protecting the soil from trees and grassroots.

Jiang Ruoning said: "The Nine Emperor Sisters chose to write the regulations of the river embankment, and I chose the official road, the two seem to be different, but they are actually similar." New drainage canals should be added to official roads. Brother Emperor, you are a well-informed person, help me come up with ideas. What improvements can be made in this area of official roads? ”

Murong Zhang sighed, "The official road is cultivated almost every year, and once it is cultivated, it can be managed for ten or eight years, and it is reborn every rainy season." The road surface is muddy again. The capital, Fengtianfu, and Shuntianfu are paved with stone slabs, and the time of management is longer, so it is said that the road surface in the area of Shuntianfu Mansion is still built during the period of Emperor Tianqian. It is still intact and rainy. ”

Jiang Ruoning said thoughtfully: "Drilling stone to pave the road is extremely labor-intensive and material-intensive, but the stone pavement does take longer. ”

Murong Zhang said: "That's exactly the case, although the imperial court has stone quarries in all provinces, it is still in short supply, and the distance is too far and the transportation is inconvenient...... As he was talking, he saw a eunuch approaching and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the King of Chang'an has been listening outside for most of the hour. ”

Murong Zhang was immediately unhappy. He said: "Prince, if you want to listen to it, what does it mean to stand outside and listen like this?" He who knows, says that he has forgotten what he heard; I don't know, I thought that this king didn't want to see him. ”

When Murong Zhuo heard this, he hurriedly said: "Please ask the crown prince and the royal brother to forgive the sin, I am really obsessed with listening to it outside, the advice of the imperial sister is very good, and the crown prince and the imperial brother are like pearls, which makes the courtiers and younger brothers suddenly open." ”

Murong Zhang said softly: "Come in!" ”

Murong Zhuo entered the study. Bow to Murong Zhang.

Jiang Ruoning held two calligraphy and paintings in his arms, and smiled brightly, "To say that the eldest brother is a first-class rich and noble person is really not blowing." I really want to move your study, the good calligraphy and painting are really dizzying, and the courtier's sister picked these two. ”

When she opened the scroll, one was the handwriting of a famous artist from the previous dynasty, and the other was just calligraphy from this dynasty, and this person was Xie Yangzhi, the ancestor of the Xie family and Xie Liduan's grandfather. Emperor Tianqian was one of the great calligraphers.

Murong Zhang said: "Feng Ge will pick, Xie Yangzhi's calligraphy is one of the three major calligraphers of this dynasty. This king here, there happens to be a copy of his notebook, if Feng Ge likes it, he will give it to you. ”

Jiang Ruoning smiled and thanked him again and again.

Outside, the voice of the chamberlain came: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the family banquet is about to begin, Concubine De, Concubine Xian, and Concubine Jing have arrived, and the Crown Princess invites the Prince to the table." ”

Jiang Ruoning handed over the two calligraphy and paintings he had obtained and a calligraphy book to Mama Bi, and followed behind Murong Zhang and Murong Zhuo.

When Murong Zhang passed by Feng Wu, he stopped and said earnestly: "Ying'er, don't go too far, today the Taigong will make an east banquet to invite the whole family, if you make trouble at this king's family banquet, don't blame this king for being ruthless." ”

The crown prince as the eldest prince, since his wedding, every year on the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month will be held in the palace banquet, entertaining the emperor, the concubine and all the princes, princesses, but also to show the eldest brother to respect the emperor, love the benevolence of the younger siblings, has been several years, this has almost become the practice of the palace.

Feng Wu was speechless for a while, looking at Jiang Ruoning, who came in with Murong Zhang, and became more and more hated as if she couldn't eat it alive.

"It is said that men are unpredictable, and my father used to favor me the most, but now he sees the wild / species as a baby......"

Murong Zhang shouted "Shut up", "You are the eldest princess, you are the example of the princesses, how can you say what the market says, Feng Ge is also the granddaughter of the emperor's grandfather, what do you think if you say such things?" If you don't want to participate in the family banquet, you can leave today, and the girl who marries out of the house is the in-law's family, and the king will not stop you. ”

If in the past, how could the imperial brother say this about her, he loved her and spoiled her, but now he intends to stand on Jiang Ruoning's side. Princess Fengwu suddenly got up, pointed at Jiang Ruoning and shouted, "You want to drive me back to the house for her?" Brother Huang, are you still the brother who loves me the most? On the day when the queen mother was gone, you took my hand and said, 'Ying'er, you still have me.' 'Do you know how happy I am......

When Princess Fengwu was crying, she only heard a majestic voice coming: "Good family banquet, Fengwu, what are you making trouble again?" ”

This is......

The emperor in casual clothes, dressed in a bright blue auspicious cloud robe, was only followed by the chief manager, and several guards stood outside the main hall.

Princess Fengwu called out "Father", tears rained down, "Brother Emperor murders me." ”

Murong Zhang raised his robe to greet him: "The son greets his father!" ”

For a time, on both sides of the huge hall, the prince and princess saluted together.

The emperor said: "The royal family is the first in the world, and today is a family banquet, and these customs are exempted." Feng Wu, you are the mother of two children, how can you not be dignified, what kind of body is crying at the family banquet! ”

Princess Fengwu thought of the past, whenever she was wronged, her father was always on her side, and even the prince protected her everywhere, and for a while, a thousand sorrows came to her heart, and the tears in her eyes turned into beads with broken threads.

The emperor frowned, and was about to speak, but when he saw a palace attendant from the imperial palace quickly approaching the prince's side, whispering a few words in his ear, Murong Zhang's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

The emperor shouted: "What happened again?" ”

Murong Zhang looked at Feng Wu, it was really not a good place for people to live, the emperor was here, she was still playing these tricks, how wise the emperor was, Feng Wu's methods were not enough at all.

The emperor glared, and the prince hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Father, a guard found Zhang Mazi who sneaked into Xinuan Pavilion in the imperial palace. ”

"Zhang Mazi?" The Emperor groaned.

Concubine Xian has two daughters, and at this moment, she is even more uplifted.

Concubine De smiled: "I heard that it is the second son of Lord Zhang of the Ministry of Officials, when he was a child, he suffered from smallpox, and he lost his pockmarked face, and he was over twenty years old and three out of three have not yet married." ”

When the emperor heard this, he guessed in his heart, "Is this palace a vegetable market outside, and anyone can sneak in?" ”

Murong Zhang's heart tightened, Feng Wu wanted to do it with his hands and feet, he couldn't do it too much, but if he didn't do it well, the emperor would be disappointed, this was not a clear question about the defense of the palace.

The crown princess hurriedly said: "Please atone for your father's sins, because the palace held a family banquet today, the guards were negligent for a while, and the daughter-in-law will severely punish the guards who neglect their duties." ”

Jiang Ruoning noticed something strange as soon as she entered the palace today, first the fragrance of flowers in the garden, and then someone found Zhang Mazi in the courtyard, she didn't know what kind of character this was, but when she heard this name, it was not good.

The emperor shouted: "Come on, send Princess Fengwu and the horse back to the house!" Starting from this year, the married princess no longer has to participate in the family banquet of the imperial palace, that is, when the family banquet is set up in the palace, if it is not for the ministers and their female relatives to participate in the banquet, the married princess does not have to participate. ”

When Princess Feng Wu heard this, she cried even louder.

The emperor said coldly: "In ordinary people's families, if a daughter marries, she will no longer be considered a mother's family, and some rules will be changed from today onwards." He paused for a moment, "As a married princess, she should be a husband and a child at home, and she should also be respectful, act cautiously, cry and cry at every turn, and it is not too bad to cry during this big holiday." ”

"Father...... Emperor" Feng Wu covered her mouth and knelt on the ground, not daring to look at the emperor, "The son wants to sue Feng Ge, at the confession banquet in the Zhenbei Palace, she humiliated the son several times, and also insulted Mrs. Xie of Rong Ning Houfu, and her eyes are not respectful ......and humble."

The emperor asked, "Is it the Xie family of Rongning Houfu?" ”

Recalling the news he received yesterday, Jiang Ruoning was not from Xie Wanjun, no wonder Xie Wanjun was so vicious, and Jiang Ruoning's biological mother's identity was a mystery, Xie Wanjun calculated Murong Zhi several times, and even deceived the royal family, no matter which one it was, it would not be too much to give her a death.

"Back to my father, Xie is also her mother no matter what she says, and her words are fierce and vicious......"

The prince's heart sank: Is Feng Wu confused? Jiang Ruoning succeeded to the emperor's name, and she was the emperor's daughter, how could she say that the Xie family was her mother.

The emperor said, "Feng Ge, you have something to say. ”

Jiang Ruoning walked out generously, blessed her body, and replied: "Back to my father, the day before yesterday in the Zhenbei Palace, the eldest sister asked me to paint a shadow for her, and also asked to paint a divine painting that can change." Erchen once said that those who can enter the painting of Erchen must be the dragon and phoenix among the people in the world, such as the emperor's grandfather, the emperor's grandmother, the father's emperor, and the lower such as the famous generals and virtuous ministers of our dynasty. Erchen thought that Sister Fengwu was really difficult to enter the painting of Erchen. ”

Feng Wu shouted, "Murong Lang is talented? He's a wasted piece of nothing, don't you paint for him too? ”

Jiang Ruoning really couldn't remember this, Murong Lang didn't have any impression except that he appeared after the Xie family blocked the road that day, "That painting is a painting that will change?" ”

Feng Wu was silent. (To be continued.) )
