Chapter 186: The Garden of the County Lord's Mansion

PS: Thanks for the pink ticket to see the stars at the end of the galaxy.

Chen Wenhui laughed and said: "Who in the capital doesn't know that you have my mother's true biography, and you are the vane of the fashion industry in the capital like my mother." Whatever you wear, it will definitely become a fashion trend. ”

Mingzhu smiled and said, "As far as you have a lot of strange words, what is a weather vane?" However, you are really right about this, my taste in clothes was learned from my stepmother. I'm better than your own daughter. In the circles of those ladies, my taste in dressing is very well-known. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Look at you proudly." You don't care about your two babies, just leave them to the wet nurse, okay? ”

Mingzhu said: "Isn't it all like this? Actually, I took them out to breathe today. On weekdays, at home, they are watched by my mother and mother-in-law, and it is difficult for them to get sick. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed and said, "It's really amazing, where is there such a mother who is still looking forward to her child getting sick?" That is, you have a mother who is the first doctor in Da Chu to dare to talk nonsense. By the way, speaking of which, I remember, how is your father? ”

Mingzhu said: "It's not in prison yet. However, now that Jing Yuan's official position is getting bigger and bigger, and his power is getting bigger and bigger, which of those officials and jailers dares to treat him badly? I don't think he's in prison now, but in prison. Now he is there, he eats well, lives comfortably, but has no freedom. I read books every day, and after so many years, my knowledge has risen dramatically. That's right, because of the relationship between Keihara. He also corresponded with many great Confucian scholars and discussed their knowledge in letters. Now, the last time I went to Jiangnan to visit him, he actually had the idea of writing a book. Maybe I'll be able to write a book in the future. ”

Chen Wenhui doesn't know this, it seems that being in prison is really a good thing for Mingzhu's father.

Chen Wenhui didn't care about this anymore and asked, "How is Brother Liu's sister living?" ”

Mingzhu said: "She is living a good life, and her husband has also been admitted to Jinshi, and now she is a Shujishi of Hanlin Academy." Because Keihara's official position is getting bigger and bigger. He mixes well in officialdom. Jointly. Jingyuan's sister is also highly respected by her in-laws, and her life is more comfortable. ”

Chen Wenhui said with emotion: "Now she is also an official wife, fortunately, you insisted on not sending her to the palace at the beginning." You are not seeing. What I looked like when I went to the East Palace the other day. It's divided into five factions, it's really a mess. I think the situation in the East Palace is even more chaotic than the Imperial Palace now. If your sister was there, she would have eaten it a long time ago. Where is there such a life to enjoy? ”

Mingzhu said, "Not really. The situation in the East Palace, you don't have a clear understanding of me. Let me tell you. Li Shuyu, do you remember? Our childhood friend, now, she is the most pitiful, she has no favor, no status, and she is still just a concubine, not even a name. Instead, those who came after went up. There is also Bai Liangdi, who is called powerful, with clever means, obviously stepping on those favored concubines, and can still have a reputation of generosity and virtuousness, and can also have a good reputation of kindness in front of the prince. and Wang Yaozhen, who is the most annoying, but now she relies on the money in her family to woo people in the East Palace, and she wants to say goodbye to the crown princess. It's really laughing to death, how dare she think about that position? Even Bai Liangdi didn't expect a position, she could get it if she had money? ”

Chen Wenhui shook her head and said: "Speaking of which, our people are now all things and people. There is also this East Palace, it's really chaotic, and now there are signs of seizing the heir. The tearing war is staged every day. It's really tiring. This time, our family doesn't want to participate in it. ”

Mingzhu said: "Don't say that your family doesn't want to participate, and Jingyuan and I don't want to participate either." Now the two of us have overwhelmed your Nanyang Qingchun City. You must take care of Qingchun City for me. In the future, we are ready to go there to retire. We are tired of the intrigue in this capital for a long time. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "No, I don't like the capital at all. It's better to be in my Qingchun City. The four seasons are like spring, where is it so cold? ”

Mingzhu smiled and said: "To say, you don't have anything in the capital, your Chen family is now the time to be powerful." Your county lord's mansion is so beautifully built, it's really rich. ”

As soon as Chen Wenhui mentioned this garden, she was very happy and said, "What do you do to make money?" To make money is to spend it. Why don't you work so hard to make money? Naturally, I want to build my home beautifully. However, the land in the capital is too rare. I'm not short of money, but I can't buy a place with money. You've lived in the City Lord's Mansion in my Qingchun City, that's beautiful, isn't it? I, the county lord's mansion in the capital, where can I compare with that. ”

This pearl agreed: "The city lord's mansion in your Qingchun City is really beautiful, it is really built like a fairyland, it is rare that there are flowers blooming in all seasons, isn't it beautiful?" The place is big, and there are real mountains and rivers in your own house. I don't think the emperor's garden is as good as yours. This county lord's mansion can't be compared. However, your county lord's mansion is considered good in the capital. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Yes, you can't compare with Qingchun City, you can only compare with the people in the capital." Fortunately, I dislike that although this county lord's mansion is a big place, it doesn't have a big garden. Now it's sleepy and comes to the pillow. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent me a garden. You can't buy that with money. With this place, the master of the black family just planned like this, and I am confident that a super beautiful good garden will come out. When the time comes, my sister will often come to my house to play. Bring the kids along. We can go boating, we can enjoy the flowers, we can enjoy the snow. Beautiful scenery in all seasons. ”

Mingzhu smiled and said, "You are wrong, your garden, I see, is built for me." Although my place is also a big house in Wujin, it's really not as good as yours. When the time comes, I'm not welcome, and I just bring my children to live here. Anyway, you're going back to Qingchun City in the future. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "It turns out that my money is spent for you and your husband and wife." It's no wonder that when the master of the black family was making plans just now, you were so attentive and put forward a lot of opinions. I don't think I'm like a master, but you're like a master. That's what you had in mind. However, what you said is also true, I don't plan to live in the capital permanently. This place really wasn't for me. It's better to be in my Qingchun City. Okay, you are so concerned, if I return to Qingchun City with Chongyi in the future, in order not to waste this garden, I will invite you husband and wife to stay often. ”

Mingzhu laughed.

At this time, I saw that a group of beauties came over with flowers and willows, Chen Wenhui and Mingzhu looked at it, and it turned out that the Bai family came over with the maids and servants. The two of them hurriedly stood up and greeted each other.

Bai Shi smiled and said, "I heard that you are here when I came back from the palace. I found it. Wen Hui, let me tell you, the queen mother in the palace has made a will. ”

After that, I will say the content of the will.

Mingzhu said: "Oh, the two mothers are going to practice at such a young age, how can they get it?" ”

Chen Wenhui frowned and said, "This is already the best ending." It's much better than being buried and going to a royal temple. ”

Mingzhu also knew this, thought about it for a while, and really, at least in his own place, be freer.

Chen Wenhui said: "In this case, please ask my mother to ask someone to choose a site, and when we find a place, we will buy the land, and I will ask the master of the Hei family to plan it and start building." The sooner it was built, the sooner the day was relieved. ”

Bai said: "You don't have to worry about this. All you have to do is take the money out. We have already chosen the place, in a mountain col in the eastern suburbs, where there are mountains and water, there is even a hot spring, and it is very warm in winter. Not only is there a large enough place to build a Taoist temple, but there are also some fields around, about three or four hundred acres. It is found in nearby mountain cols. ”

Chen Wenhui was very happy and said: "The silver is enough. Let's just take a car and go to that place now. Buy that place. Those fields were also bought, and in the future, they would be used as the property of the Taoist temple, so that they could also be self-sufficient. As for the peasants, I can go and mobilize them. Those who are willing to stay will be tenant farmers in the Taoist temple, and those who are not willing to stay, I will pay a settlement fee and go to my newly built Vermilion Bird City in Nanyang. I'm short of manpower. ”

Bai Shi smiled and said, "Are you here to build a Taoist temple or to attract people to Nanyang?" ”

Mingzhu said: "Actually, every time the imperial court wants to build something, the most pitiful thing is the local people, like you are fine, but they take the silver out to buy their land, and the imperial court directly expropriates it." The people who lost their land were pitiful. ”

Chen Wenhui concluded, isn't this the ancient version of forced demolition?

Bai said, "What can I do even if I give money? How long does this money last? Will the landless people not be guilty in the future? Struggling to make ends meet? I think Hui'er is a good idea. If these people have gone to Nanyang, they will naturally not have no livelihood and no land to cultivate. Maybe you can live better in a different place. Originally, we built a Taoist temple to pray for blessings, but if the people were displaced because of this incident, it would hurt the shadows. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled. She didn't think of so much, she just wanted to give Nanyang more people to over. Nanyang is a vast place, and people are needed so much.

Mingzhu tilted her head, counted for a while and said, "Wen Hui, do you have so much money?" Your lord's house will be filled with more, and your garden will be built. You still have to build Taoist temples, and you have to buy those lands, and the land on the edge of the capital is very expensive. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Will I have no money?" (To be continued......)
