204: Lao Guogong's 60th birthday (I)

Wen Wan heard Shang Tang and asked him to lead him into the study. //nilongdao//

"It's nothing, just come and ask you, when will we go to Pingfu tomorrow." In the current situation, today should pass. Lived in the past.

"Tomorrow at the end of the hour (nine o'clock)." Wen Wan knew that it was impossible for her to ask herself something because of such a trivial matter.

"Sister, that's the case, two days ago, I saw my father and the eldest master of the Mao family drinking in the Ruyi Building. The Mao family is the mother family of King Heng, and King Heng doesn't look obvious, but as a prince, who doesn't want to fight for that chair. The relationship between my sister and Zhu Ye, few people in the capital know. So, I have advised my father not to get involved, in case something happens, but it will cause a catastrophe, but he will not listen. I'm afraid it's not good for you. Shang Tang whispered.

Wen Wan knew that King Heng was idle. Unexpectedly, Wen Wanzhen didn't expect that King Heng would hit her cheap father with his idea. Wen Wan sneered in her heart, others didn't know about her relationship with that cheap father, and the emperor's grandfather didn't know. Something tricked up, he continued.

Wen Wan didn't show it on her face, and only asked Shang Tang, "What do you mean?" ”

"Take advantage of tomorrow, you persuade your father not to get too close to Master Mao. I advised him, but not only did he not listen, but he also ...... My sister advised her father that he should listen. Shang Tang was a little difficult to speak, he knew that the relationship between Wen Wan and Ping Xiangxi was not good. However, the gentle identity can suppress Ping Xiangxi.

"He's been an official for so many years, and his mind knows better than you! If King Heng wins, he will be able to set a steady step. If it's Uncle Zhu, win. Even for my sake, my uncle won't use him for any reason, and he will lose his official position and be dismissed, and he won't worry about his life. You don't have anything else, and he can't make much waves. Wen Wan didn't care at all. He tossed hard, and the more he tossed, the better.

Ping Xiangxi wants to toss himself into prison, that's good. She definitely wants Ping Xiangxi to stay in prison for a little longer and taste the taste.

"How about you work as an errand in the household department. I heard that the commercial tax collected now has doubled several times compared to before, and you people ∏ not be ashamed of those nobles. Wen Wan was not very satisfied, but she didn't show it on her face. Just laughing and writing on paper. After the affairs of King Zhou. The powerful families also obediently paid their taxes. And the preferential time has passed, and now there are more and more taxes on business. It also relieved some of the pressure on the imperial court.

"I'm fine. Even if you want to make things difficult, you don't dare to be blatant, who doesn't know that I have a powerful sister. Dare to bully me, wait for you to whip it over. They will not bear it yet. Shang Tang thought about the matter of Wen Wan standing up for him that time, and laughed at the atmosphere.

"What if they do things according to the charter." Wen Wan didn't care.

"By the way, sister, I have a colleague who wants to do business, and I have a stake in the timber business. I think it's good, and I'm ready to take a stake. Shang Tang looked at Wen Wan. Although I don't think it's a big deal, but now this situation, I still report it.

"You're short of money?" Wen Wan asked a little strangely.

Shang Tang nodded a little embarrassedly. The family's expenses are so large, and that little money is not enough≡ he is a big man, and he can't always live on his wife's dowry.

"Even if you want to do that business, it's okay, in such a sensitive time, more is better than less. If you are short of money, you can withdraw it directly from the account. Although there is no shortage of industries, Zhuangzi also has at least seven or eight thousand taels of money every year, and you will not be short of money. Wen Wan wrote on the paper.

Shang Tang was taken aback. After hearing this, he immediately shook his head and explained, "I also have loose hands. Chewing at home is sufficient. I just want to make more money so that I can buy you a good dowry in the future. ”

Wen Wan heard Shang Tang say that he would buy a dowry for herself. Although I don't rely on it, it's not bad to have this heart." Don't worry about it, the dowry grandfather and uncle will prepare. You don't have much money now, even if you want to do business, it's good to want to buy inputs. However, it is also necessary to wait for Uncle Zhu to be appointed as the prince, and King Zhao and King Heng will return to the fief. It's better to keep a low profile now. Those people are desperate to find the wrong place, saying that they are in the timber business, and who knows if there is something unsightly hidden in the wood. When the time comes, I will use you as a note, and you don't understand business, and you can't speak clearly with ten mouths. It's better to be cautious. ”

Shang Tang got the sentence whether there was something unsightly hidden in the wood, his forehead was sweating ♀, he really didn't think about ≡ himself, he almost spared some people It ♀ was really hateful, he was already very careful, or put a trap on himself, just said how to let himself be a shareholder in business!

The two siblings talked for a while.

"By the way, I heard that you took a maid." Before Shang Tang came back, Wen Wan knew from Gu's mother that a few days ago, Shang Tang had received a maid in the room, which was really given.

"Yes." Shang Tang nodded, his face slightly red.

Wen Wan's expression was very sharp, "I will not meddle in the affairs of your inner court." However, I just don't break the rules, and before the eldest son is born, no concubine will be born. I told you before I should have said it, I just want you to remember my words, home and everything is prosperous∞ family is peaceful, if you can't even handle a small backyard, how to handle government affairs. ”

How many big families are because they don't have rules, and they don't look like it in the end☆A typical example is Pingmu. If it weren't for her, would the Heike be in such an embarrassing situation? Such a rigorous style like the Hai family. Only then will there be talents from generation to generation. Because their family style is rigorous, the rules can be said to be old-fashioned, but they are absolutely practical.

"Don't worry, I'm measured." He's not a person, nor is he such a foolish person. It's not just a warm bed maid, Wen Wan is so fussed. However, I also heard that Wen Wan didn't like the concubine very much, and she knew it in her heart.

After Shang Tang left, Wen Wan continued to sit in the courtyard ▲ under the grapevines she had people plant. It's October now, and it's the beginning of winter. The grapes are gone, and only the yellow leaves are left and the vines remain.

Wen Wan looked at the night sky, the weather was dark today. There are no stars in the sky. There is also no moon. Wen Wan stood for a long time.

Xia Yao was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she took her clothes and put them on her.

Wen Wan looked at Xia Yao, her face was very soft: "Does Princess Chun have any other moves?" ”

Xia Yao smiled and said, "How could Princess Chun do such a stupid thing. If this is the case, how will the girl of the Jiang family marry in the future. Moreover, marrying a wife is no better than marrying a side concubine. The emperor must grant marriage. If the emperor doesn't agree, at most he can only be a side concubine. ”

Xia Yao deliberately mentioned the side concubine, which meant to remind the county lord. If she didn't marry Yan Qixuan, not to mention that there would be no concubines in the side room.

Wen Wan glanced at Xia Yao, and her soft eyes suddenly became dark and indifferent.

Xia Yao's heart jumped suddenly. I didn't say any more, county lord, county lord, what does this mean. Why is she more and more afraid of the county lord now?

Wen Wansheng took out her hand. Breaking off a grapevine branch and holding it in his hand, it seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was saying to Xia Yao: "Xia Yao, what I hate the most is betrayal." The second is those who do not keep their promises, and the third is those who deceive and conceal me under the banner of being good for me. The person who betrayed me, I used to avoid it, but now I will make her life worse than death. Those who break their promises and do not keep them. I'll let him get out of me for a hundred and eight thousand miles. Xia Yao, then you tell me, what should I do if you deceive me and hide me from me in the name of being good for me. ”

Xia Yao trembled. What does the county lord mean by this: "The county lord will do whatever he wants." ”

Wen Wan looked at the grapevine in her hand: "Among these three kinds of people, the most difficult to deal with is the third type of people. Because her intentions are good. But what is good and what is bad, no one is qualified to decide for me. But they just self-righteous under the banner of being good for each other. I made a decision for myself. You say, "It's best to punish you." ”

Xia Yao squeezed her hands. Fluttering knelt in front of Wen Wan: "County Lord, subordinates don't dare to ......"

Wen Wan's face was very indifferent: "Don't dare? You really think I'm a fool and an idiot. It's up to you to fiddle with? Was that a decision you made privately, or did the emperor's grandfather ask you to do it? ”

Xia Yao gritted her teeth and said, "Did your subordinates decide for themselves?" ”

Wen Wan looked at Xia Yao for a minute: "Xia Yao, I always thought that as long as I didn't pass the bottom line of the emperor's grandfather, you would always be loyal to me." Unexpectedly, it was me who was wrong. Forget it, don't kneel either. When I return to the palace, I will tell the emperor's grandfather that my temple is too small to accommodate you, a great god. ”

Wen Wan turned and went into the bedroom. Take the vine branch in your hand and place it on the green oil lamp. The rattan made a snorting sound, and in the end, it was burned to ashes. The foliage is flourishing, and spring comes and goes. And the vine branch is born by climbing the vine man, if you give birth to another heart, you can only cut it.

Wen Wan looked at the room, stunned, her eyes piercing the space. It seems that I can see her in modern times. Surviving here is more than a hundred times more difficult than in modern times, and she doesn't know how to cherish blessings in her life.

Xia Yao came in and knelt in front of Wen Wan: "County Lord, this time it was the subordinates who made the mistake ‰ The county lord punished, I am willing to accept any punishment ‰ The county lord should not drive his subordinates away?" ”

Wen Wan didn't turn around, she picked up the wick in the oil lamp, the oil lamp burned more and more, and the room lit up a lot. I don't know how long it took for Wen Wan to ask, "I just want to ask you, did the emperor's grandfather let you do this?" ”

Xia Yao bit her jaw and looked at Wen Wan's indifferent and distant look. She knew that the county lord already had the answer in her heart, and she couldn't hold it if she bit it to death. After the lower jaw bit and bleed, he finally replied in a low voice: "Yes." ”

Wen Wan sighed heavily: "If there is a next time, I will not give you another chance." I don't need you to keep vigil today, let Wu Xing keep watch outside, you think about it. If you can't be like a shadow, I won't keep you anymore. "Wen Wan now has two shadows around her, which were given by the emperor. Shadow, only protect and obey her.

Xia Yao answered and retreated.

Wen Wan sat on the dresser and unloaded her jewelry, looking at the youthful and indifferent person in the mirror, and touched her face with her hand: "Yan Qixuan, if you don't break your promise, I will tell you that I am Fuxi ∴ Qixuan, if you have the courage and courage to accompany me to face all the difficulties and work hard to overcome them together, I will always persevere∴ Qi Xuan, eliminate you, don't let me down." At that time, when she knew that the rumors were spread by Yan Qixuan, thinking that two years of hard work would lead to such a result, she was so disappointed that she didn't think much about it. But after calming down, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was strange∴ Qi Xuan just didn't understand things, but with his temperament, it was impossible to do something that would take revenge. If this is the case, there is only one reason, Xia Yao hid the truth from her.

When I asked today, it was so. If her guess is right, this rumor should be Princess Chun with the help of Yan Qixuan's hand,

After returning to the palace this time, she must see Yan Qixuan and talk to him face to face. If she didn't say it, it was her fault, she concealed the truth ♀, so she told Yan Qixuan everything and let him choose for himself. Whatever the cause, whatever the future outcome, at least, she has done her best.

After getting up gently, she finished her makeup. Xia Yao came in and knelt in front of Wen Wan: "The county lord, after the slave, he is only loyal to the county lord, and only the order of the county is obeyed." ”

Wen Wan said lightly: "Remember what you said yourself, get up!" "She wants to see Yan Qixuan, and there is the last and most difficult level. The Emperor's level. But no matter what, she has to see Yan Qixuan for a year...... She worked hard for more than two years to get such a result. If Yan Qixuan really broke her promise and really did so many messy things, she would have a clear conscience if she gave up. But if it's just a middleman, she will not be reconciled

At the end of the hour, they set off from the county lord's mansion on time, and the group went to the Pingguo Mansion. Except for Xia Yao and Xia Ying, all of them are guards ♀, and there are two more people and two eunuchs. Wen Wan was the most tired of the eunuch's voice, sharp and harsh, but unfortunately this time the emperor had to let it.

"The county lord has returned home." Wen Wan lifted the sedan chair, and many people outside were waiting. The porter shouted, and the county lord arrived.

Those who are waiting below bow down and salute. The eunuch raised his throat and flattened his body. The general voice is gentle and gentle, but this voice is too big, and it is on the edge of her sedan chair, so Wen Wan decides not to suffer anymore. I will definitely resist next time.

In today's crowd, Wen Wan is one of the important members. Wen Wan looked at Chonglou and hugged Linlou, lingering in the road, a prosperous and wealthy.

Wen Wan hadn't seen this before, and it was estimated that she had recently dressed up for Pingguo's husband. I don't know how much silver to burn, it seems that the Pingguo Mansion is not so short of money!

"The county lord gets off the sedan chair." After speaking, she immediately took a stool over, Wen Wan stepped on the stool, and got out of the carriage (Wen Wan didn't step on people, saying that it was not safe, but in fact, she was unwilling to use people as livestock). Looking at Wen Wan, everyone was stunned. Wen Wan actually wore a colorful veil, and even wore a pair of gloves on her hands. Only one pair of eyes are exposed. Everyone immediately suddenly realized that the rumored disfigurement of the gentle county lord was indeed not groundless.

Although you can't see your face, you can still see it in one outfit: wearing a golden-red palace dress embroidered with phoenix dancing for nine days, and wearing a set of emerald hair accessories; a pair of gemstone earrings in his ears; Wearing a tasseled eight-treasure collar, pinned with a gold-inlaid colored jade and embellished gemstone butterfly in the front, it swayed as if it was about to fly, and he wore a chicken blood jade bracelet as red as blood on his wrist; Dressed in a white white fox coat with snow in the snow. Seeing that everyone is secretly smashing their tongues, this outfit is purchased, and it will cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. (
