In the palace of the capital, a series of struggles were caused by the maternity hospital, but this maternity hospital did give the people great convenience. It also brought safety to mothers in the capital, and fewer children died.

These blessed people began to sing the praises of the virtues of the queen's mother. There are also some people in the capital who began to conclude that the previous queen, that is, the current Queen Mother, set up Yangshantang and helped the capital back then, and how many people are there in the Gyeonggi area? How many mothers does the queen help now?

In this way, both queens are virtuous people. These two queens are still a family, and they are both girls from the Chen family. At this moment, the virtuous and beautiful reputation of the Chen family girl has spread, but unfortunately, at this time, there are no girls of the right age in the Chen family to marry, and many nobles and high-ranking officials in the capital are deeply regretful.

However, some people with good eyes began to focus on the daughter of Chen Wenqi of the Chen family. Chen Wenqi's daughter is also seven or eight years old, with noble blood, she is the daughter of the Chen family, and her mother is the daughter of the Bai family. is also the niece of the queen's mother. His grandfather is Chen Yuanfeng, the current head of the Chen family, and his grandmother is the daughter of the Wang family. 's father Chen Wenqi is still a cabinet minister, and she is powerful, such a girl can really compare with the princess in the palace.

Although Chen Wenqi's eldest daughter is only seven or eight years old, there are already many families who want to ask Bai Yuying to marry. Bai Yuying didn't understand it at first, but she felt that the officials and noblewomen who were in contact with her had a wonderful meaning, and later realized that she wanted to marry the daughter of the Chen family, and she couldn't help laughing.

However, it also reminded her. 's daughter is almost at the age of being able to say goodbye. At this time, many aristocratic girls began to choose relatives after the age of ten, no matter how they had to choose two or three years, they would marry at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and marry at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Therefore, Bai Yuying's daughter is almost at the time.

Bai Yuying's daughter is almost at the age of saying goodbye. That's about the same age as her daughter, the eldest son of the queen's mother. It's time to say goodbye.

Bai Yuying took a moment. entered the palace and told Chen Wenfeng about this matter.

Chen Wenfeng was surprised to find that his son was almost ten years old. This age, although a little younger. But. Most of the princes began to discuss marriage at the age of thirteen or fourteen. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, they got married. Chen Wenfeng's son is the eldest son of the emperor and is both a concubine. It's long again, so it's natural to be cautious. This selection may be the future crown princess or the future queen. Naturally, you have to be selective.

Recently, the emperor often came to Chen Wenfeng's palace, and on this day, the emperor went to Chen Wenfeng's palace again. Chen Wenfeng smiled and talked about the reputation of the Chen family's daughter.

Emperor Liu Yan was very happy and said, "What is this? The girls of your Chen family have always had good reputations. My father has praised him many times. Not to mention anything else, your older generation, the Queen Mother, the mother of the world, is a model for women in the world, the father is the most relied on, since she managed the harem, the harem has been managed in an orderly manner. Where is the turmoil of the previous kings and queens? ”

"Look at Lin Haibo again, that is also a heroine among women. There is also Tian Jingye's mother, who is most praised by his father, your third aunt, who has served her mother-in-law and eldest princess for many years, and her reputation for filial piety and virtuousness is known to the world. Let's talk about your generation. Needless to say, you are the queen, and virtue is the first in the world. It's your little sister, Lord Wen Hui, isn't she also smart and kind? This maternity hospital was first established in the northwest. ”

Chen Wenfeng heard the emperor praise the Chen family's daughter, and later, when he heard the emperor praise her virtue as the first in the world, he couldn't help but be very happy, and even trembled with excitement. However, when she heard that the emperor praised Chen Wenhui, she couldn't help but be a little stunned, as if she had been poured a basin of cold water.

However, the emperor didn't notice Chen Wenfeng's abnormality, but he came to talk about sex, and said happily: "You said this Wen Hui, why is he so capable?" Wherever she goes, she will thrive. Shanghai City, as you know, used to be a wilderness, but now it is the most prosperous city in Dachu except for the capital, and it is even more prosperous than Suzhou City. Every year, Shanghai City alone can bring me an income of 10 million taels of silver. Of course, of these 10 million taels of silver, there are 5 million taels of silver for the northwest alone every year. ”

"Even so, how much convenience does it bring to me with an extra five million taels of silver to spend every year? How many things have I done? Let's not talk about Shanghai City. And this Nanyang, can I have the land of Nanyang, and it is not the business of the Xiao Chen family? Although everything in these cities is now in the hands of Xiao Chen's family and Wen Hui, how much food does a Tongren city in Nanyang bring to Dachu every year? ”

"In addition to Tongren City, how much tax revenue has been brought to Dachu by trading with more than a dozen other cities? Not to mention, the northwest is bitter and cold enough, right? Why did the couple go to the northwest for only a few years, and they governed the northwest so well? Of course, I gave her five million taels of silver a year. However, their husband and wife have also brought me good political achievements, huh? At first, I thought that the five million taels of silver were for a city in Tiebiguan. In the future, with the development of the northwest, we must increase the money. ”

"But she only had one iron wall pass in the first year, with five million taels of silver, and in the past two years, she has added Shanhai City and Central City, and it seems that the third city will be added, and she will still use five million taels of silver. Do you think they are very powerful? ”

Chen Wenfeng forced himself to calm down, forced himself to think that Chen Wenhui was his own cousin, the county lord of Wenhui, the Duchess of Northwest, his mother's family, and his ally. She's fine, and she's gaining power. Therefore, she suppressed the strangeness in her heart, tried her best to calm herself, and said with a smile: "I heard that Tiebiguan is very prosperous now, although it is not as good as Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou City, etc., but it is not much worse than the provincial capital in the south of the Yangtze River." ”

"The specialties of Tiebi Pass, such as those wool tweeds, are very popular in the capital, and even I can't avoid vulgarity, so I sent the Internal Affairs Office to buy some for the concubines in the palace. It was indeed beautiful and warm. However, the price is also very expensive, even more expensive than the top silk. In this way, can the Iron Wall Pass be poor? ”

"If that's the case, then the tax revenue from the Iron Wall Pass will definitely be able to keep the city running. In addition to giving money and grain to the northwest every year, the emperor also exempted the northwest from taxes. Wen Hui may use that money to run new cities such as Shanhai City. ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right. However, Chongyi and his wife are also hard. Two people, even if they had children, did not delay the construction of the Northwest. ”

The queen smiled and said, "Didn't the emperor reward the northwest husband and wife?" As soon as his son was born, the emperor sent many rewards, and gave the eldest son of the Northwest Palace, the official title of Doctor Sanyi, which can be regarded as a great favor. ”

The emperor smiled and said: "As soon as you mention giving them two rewards, I have a headache, you say, their husband and wife are already extremely human ministers, what else can they reward?" Don't be an official and give money, right? Hehe, I, the emperor, may not have as much money as Wen Hui and his wife. ”

The queen's smile was even brighter, but there was still no temperature in her eyes: "The emperor is rich all over the world, how can he not be rich without Wen Hui and his wife?" ”

The emperor shook his head and smiled.

The queen didn't want to continue the topic, so she turned around and said: "Now, I heard that the good name of our Chen family daughter is rumored outside, and even the eldest daughter of the eldest brother Chen Wenqi, who is only seven or eight years old, someone made an idea and wanted to ask to marry. ”

When the emperor heard this, he also laughed, and said, "Someone came to ask for marriage at the age of seven or eight? It's kind of a rarity. However, back then, when I met Wen Hui, Wen Hui was only seven or eight years old. Ay. ”

Chen Wenfeng was about to hold back, but she tried her best to hold back, and her smile was unnatural, saying: "However, as soon as my sister-in-law talked to me, I found out that our children have grown up." The eldest brother's eldest daughter has already been asked to marry. Our eldest son is almost ten years old, shouldn't he also choose the imperial concubine? ”

When the emperor heard this, his expression immediately became solemn. After thinking for a while, the emperor said: "What you said is very true, originally, the emperor's eldest son is still young, less than the age of the marriage, but choosing a wife for him is a big deal, and it can't be ignored, so it will take two or three years to decide." At that time, the eldest son of the emperor will also reach the age of being able to say kiss. Just in time. Then the queen will have to worry more about it in the future. ”

When Chen Wenfeng heard this, the unhappiness in his heart suddenly disappeared, although the emperor has not established a prince until now, but the emperor has now said it himself, the eldest son of the emperor is not an ordinary prince, this is what it means to make him the prince. Can you not make her happy?

Chen Wenfeng happily agreed. After thinking about it, he asked the emperor: "However, who should be chosen for the eldest concubine of the emperor?" Is it a choice among the four great families? ”

The emperor frowned, thought for a while, and said, "It is said that it should be chosen among the four major families. Originally, the daughter of the Chen family was the most suitable. However, now the two generations of queens are the daughters of the Chen family, and it may not be good if the eldest princess of the emperor is also the daughter of the Chen family. Besides, the blood relationship between the daughter of the Chen family and the eldest son of the emperor is too close. Not good. That can only be chosen in the Bai family, the Wang family, and the Li family. ”

When Chen Wenfeng heard this, he was immediately unhappy, but after thinking about it, the emperor was right. Among the daughters of the Chen family, her eldest brother's daughter is the same age as the emperor's eldest son, but the blood relationship is too close and it is not suitable. That can only be chosen among those three.

Chen Wenfeng thought of the daughters of the three families, and suddenly had a headache. (To be continued......)
