At the beginning of the establishment of the Dawu Dynasty, in order to avoid the situation of the previous dynasty's relatives grabbing power and bringing disaster to the country and the people, Emperor Taizu did not choose the daughters of meritorious heroes and famous families to enter the palace, but set up the original Shi Shi who was also born in cloth clothes as the queen, and most of the concubines were the daughters of commoners or small officials. Later generations of kings followed suit, from the queen to the concubines and nobles in the palace, all of whom were not of high origin.

Today's Queen Cheng, who is the mother of the world, was born in an ordinary family, and her father is just a person, but Queen Cheng is trained at a young age and is good at painting. At the time of the draft, her Danqing pen was favored by the Queen Mother, who was still the prince at that time, and also had a good eye for this talented woman, and the Queen Mother and the first emperor pulled Cheng out as the crown princess. Later, the Cheng family became the lord of the six palaces, and her family only had a few more imperial plaques, and among her sons and nephews, there were Jinshi, but they only became prefects.

Chen Concubine was originally just the daughter of the side branch of the Chen family, but after she was made a concubine, the Chen family of Zhending put her family under the name of Sifang, which can be regarded as giving Chen Concubine a decent background. But Chen Jin, the eldest grandmother of the Jin family, is different, her father is a descendant of the second family of the Chen family, the eldest brother of the Chen family is Hanlin, and the Chen family and her sister Chen Feng are both the young ladies of the Chen family. Compared with Concubine Chen, the aunt of the side branch, the Chen sisters' background is higher.

The reason why the Chen family wanted Chen Feng to marry in the capital was because the Chen family was also here, and the two sisters also took care of it; Second, I also wanted to find a husband for Chen Feng who was both famous and noble. At that time, Chen Jin's family affairs were brought forward by Chen Concubine, and the Chen family became in-laws with the Jin family, which is not right for the Chen family, which has produced more than a dozen Jinshi and two Jishi. But because Concubine Chen worked hard in the middle, Chen Jin married the son of the Jin family, and she was the wife of the clan when she entered the door, so the Chen family reluctantly agreed.

Now that Chen Feng has also reached the age of discussing marriage, the Chen family no longer wants to marry their daughter out of confusion, the reason why they entered the palace is to give Concubine Chen a wake-up call, so that the Chen family can give you glory, you don't mess around with mandarin ducks in the middle.

Where did Mrs. Jin know about this, Linglong handed over the two boxes of this autumn's big red robe to her. She asked who the Chen family's family was. I heard that Chen's sister Chen Feng also came. She immediately thought that the Chen family wanted to discuss marriage for their daughter in the capital.

Although Mrs. Jin said that she couldn't read big characters and couldn't even read the account books, she knew that even the old lady of the Mei family, who had been the champion in Gusu City, was also at a birthday banquet. In front of the noblewomen of the entire Gusu City, she asked, "I heard that your Jin family and the Zhending Chen family are in-laws?" ”

That was also the most face-saving time for her in front of those Jiangnan families. And that's from then on. She looked at Chen differently. Now that she learned that Chen's sister Chen Feng also wanted to marry in the capital, Mrs. Jin began to move in her heart.

She didn't even ask Jin Chang and Jin Wan why they didn't come back with Linglong, so she discussed Chen Feng's matter with Liu Yu'er.

Liu Yuer's seven tricks are exquisite. Hearing Mrs. Jin mention Chen Feng, she understood what Mrs. Jin was thinking. Although she felt that Mrs. Jin was greedy and not satisfied with marrying a daughter of the Chen family, and wanted to be close to the Chen family, she never made her aunt unhappy, so she followed Mrs. Jin's words: "Although the threshold of the Chen family is high, the Jin family is not bad, the second cousin and the third cousin have all entered the office, I heard that the dowry given by the eldest cousin to Grandma Yan was 50,000 taels, except for the prince's marriage, there is no second share in the entire capital." In my opinion, it is better to hand over this matter to the eldest cousin and Grandma Yan, with them coming forward, the Chen family will not refuse, and besides, the Chen family is also the maiden family of Grandma Yan, so why should I give face to my aunt. ”

Mrs. Jin has always attached great importance to this niece, although because of Jin Min's refusal, Liu Yuer could not marry into the Jin family as she wished, but Mrs. Jin would discuss with Liu Yuer if she had anything. First, she has no daughters under her knees, and secondly, she can't look down on all her daughters-in-law, and her niece Liu Yuer has become the most popular person in front of Mrs. Jin.

Hearing that Liu Yu'er also agreed, Mrs. Jin was even happier, and asked the maids to stay in Moliu, and when the third master came back from the yamen, he asked him to come to Chunhui Hall.

Linglong didn't know that just because of those two boxes of big red robes, Mrs. Jin had such an idea, on the way back from Chunhui Hall, Xingyu was still muttering to her, why didn't Lao An ask about Jin Chang and Jin Wan.

Linglong also felt strange, she had already prepared a set of rhetoric, but it didn't work.

As soon as they entered the yard, Bai Lu ran over and pulled Xingyu to the side to whisper, Mama Xiong glanced at them a few times, and then changed her smiling face and talked to Linglong about how disobedient the little girls who had just come to the yard were.

Linglong said: "They are only seven or eight years old, grandma is in charge, don't do it, such a young child, if something really happens, outsiders will say that the Jin family is harsh." ”

Mama Xiong agreed with a smile, and wanted to say more, Linglong said lightly: "Mama Xiong has something to say, just talk to Xingyu, the second cousin's screen has not been embroidered yet, I want to hurry up." ”

After two or three sentences, Mama Xiong blasted out, and Mama Xiong gritted her teeth in anger. Miss Five is twelve years old, Xingyu is thirteen years old, Miss Five actually asked her to tell Xingyu about everything, Xingyu is just a child with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and she wants to step on her head just because she is Miss Five's milk sister, and she doesn't look in the mirror.

But it really made her and Linglong refuse to fight, and she was a little stunned, this fifth lady seemed to be a little wrong, if she really threw a pear and an apple at her again, she couldn't stand it.

Mama Xiong wanted to get angry, but when she thought of what Song Xiuzhu told her to do, she still endured it and asked Xingyu to complain to those little girls.

When Xingyu heard this, she said to Bai Lu: "You go to the back and help Mama Xiong scold those little ones, so that they don't always be ignorant." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Mama Xiong to speak again, she picked out a cotton curtain with lilac-colored begonia flowers and entered the wing, which made Mama Xiong glaring angrily.

Linglong was drinking tea, and when she saw Xingyu coming in with a smile, she asked, "What's so happy?" ”

Xingyu made a look, Xi'er retreated with the two little girls who had just taken the corner, and Xingyu whispered: "My brother is back, he came to me today, I just went to Dongfu with you, it was Bai Lu who came to see him at the door." ”

After listening to Xingyu, Linglong's eyes shone brightly, Li Sheng has been going to Shandong for some days, he is back now, I don't know if there is any news of Fen Niang.

"You will go out early tomorrow morning to get the sign, and say that I will give you a holiday to see your brother, and if there is news, you will go to Dongfu to find me."

Li Sheng lives in Sweet Water Lane now, and since he left a message for his sister, he will definitely wait in Sweet Water Lane tomorrow.

Linglong thought about it again and said to Xingyu: "If your brother still knows reliable people, you can also bring them in and add more people." ”

Xingyu shook his head: "My brother is the executioner in the dart game, and the people he knows are all such people, it's okay to run errands, but not in other things, and the people in the dart game are not worrying, go south and north, you let my brother introduce, I'm afraid that he will find some people who can only move knives and fists, but they will cause you trouble." ”

Linglong was stunned, in her previous life, she had been rolling on the rivers and lakes since she was a child, and she lived a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, and she knew such people, so she did not reject the people in the rivers and lakes in her heart, until she heard Xingyu say this, she suddenly thought that if she wants to have her own people, then she will subdivide people. If there is an organic spirit, let him run errands; If you have good martial arts, you will be a guard for yourself; And more importantly, she also needs to have a brain and resourcefulness that can help her come up with ideas.
