Chen Wenhui was thinking wildly, when suddenly the boat had docked. On the dock, Chen Wenhui saw the grand greeting procession, and looked at it, it was Princess Lichuan and her husband who were greeting her.

Chen Wenhui was very happy to see Princess Lichuan and his wife, after all, they hadn't seen each other for several years. For this princess cousin, she still has a lot of feelings.

As soon as Princess Lichuan saw Chen Wenhui, she smiled and said, "It's really the eighteen changes of the female university, Wenhui, you are a beauty now." This color, I am fascinated when I see it. ”

Chen Wenhui has always been taller than ordinary girls, and she is almost fifteen years old at the moment, and she is actually a little taller than Princess Lichuan. You know, oh, Princess Lichuan belongs to the long-bodied jade type.

Chen Wenhui has fair skin, beautiful and bright eyes, very large, flashing with confidence. Because of being a superior all year round, the style of this whole body is incomparable to that of ordinary girls, and wherever she stands, she is a shining goddess.

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "Sister Princess, you are laughing at me again." I envy you, I don't know how to maintain it, you are already the mother of three children, and you still look like a girl, beautiful and youthful. ”

Princess Lichuan was happy when she heard it and said, "I'm still the happiest to talk to you." Okay, it's windy on this dock, let's go back to the city. You've been walking for so many years, and you haven't seen how much Shanghai has changed. This time I had to stay a few more days. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "It is to bother for a few more days. I came first this time, and my five big boats were slowly walking behind. I guess they haven't arrived by the time I leave Shanghai. Wait until they arrive. Ask the princess's sister to help me move the goods down and replace them with a big boat that can sail on the canals. Then slowly march to the capital. ”

Princess Lichuan smiled and said, "It's a trivial matter. I know that you are impatient and impatient to take a slow boat. ”

After speaking, he led Chen Wenhui to the carriage and set off for the City Lord's Mansion.

When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, naturally the officials of Shanghai City came to greet them, and Chen Wenhui got in touch with them, had a banquet together, and drank a glass of wine. and withdrew. Although she is a member of Da Chu's first grade and a county lord, she is a girl who has not been out of the cabinet after all. Where can you really drink and have fun with a group of strange officials? Everyone understands this, and they don't say anything. Chen Wenhui left with Princess Lichuan. Returned to Princess Lichuan's castle lord's mansion. The colt was left behind.

Chen Wenhui and Princess Lichuan returned to the City Lord's Mansion. Princess Lichuan had already prepared wine and food in the crystal pavilion in the garden. Ready to talk to Chen Wenhui while eating.

Chen Wenhui looked at the layout of the crystal pavilion, which was elegant and warm, a little strange. Princess Lichuan said, "This place is next to the pond. In summer, you can enjoy the moon in the water, so it is called the Crystal Pavilion. In winter, it's a bit cold, so I made a fire wall so that it is really warm. Although it is spring now, after all, it is not as warm as Nanyang, and I am afraid that you will not be used to it, so I ordered them to burn the fire wall early, so that we can have a warm meal. ”

Chen Wenhui was very moved and said: "Sister Princess, your mind is delicate and thoughtful. Thank you, sister. ”

Princess Lichuan smiled and said: "They are all sisters and relatives of their own family, some little things, thank you." Come and talk to us while eating. This wine is a fruit wine that I asked someone to make according to the ancient method, sweet and delicious. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and talked with the princess while eating and drinking. From the situation after the two sides separated, they talked about the current situation in Da Chu.

Princess Lichuan said: "Now that my father's health is deteriorating, I am also very worried. However, there is a queen mother in the palace, and she takes care of her very well. My father is now focused on my sister Huichuan, and I am afraid that if he has three longs and two shorts, his sister will have no one to take care of. Fortunately, the prince's younger brother has always liked Sister Inovance. For my sister's sake, my father is very good to the prince now. Not only did he hand over all the military affairs to his younger brother, but he also praised the prince in front of the courtiers many times. The crown prince's position is becoming more and more secure. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled, she also knew this.

Princess Lichuan continued: "Because my father's health is not good, he has already made plans for the future. Everything in the court is easy to say, the crown prince has been an assistant for many years, and his father is very relieved. But for the internal affairs of our royal family, my father has some plans. ”

This Chen Wenhui is more interested. I couldn't help but listen with wide eyes.

Princess Lichuan said: "My eldest aunt, the eldest princess's health is not very good, I heard that some doctors have said that they may not be able to survive this summer." Therefore, the father planned to transfer Tian Jingye back to the capital after a period of time. As the lord of the city, he built Tongren City very well, and his father planned to reward him after he was transferred back. As for the two sons of my eldest aunt in the Tian family, they may have to be given a knighthood. It can also be regarded as the sister-brother friendship between the father and the eldest princess who have supported each other for many years. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it and asked, "Then who will take over the city lord of Tongren City?" ”

Princess Lichuan said: "My father asked the prince, and the prince wanted Chen Wenqi to take over. ”

Chen Wenhui breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Wenqi's ability is actually above Tian Jingye, and he is his own person of the Chen family, and he takes over, which makes Chen Wenhui happier than the Bai family brothers taking over.

Princess Lichuan continued: "Then it is the arrangement of our brothers and sisters. The former prince was imprisoned, and his father meant that after the prince ascended the throne, he would spare the prince's life and let him go, so that he could get a good reputation, so he would be demoted to a concubine, or he would be given an idle clan to let him stay in the capital and enjoy his old age in peace. The second younger brother, King Zhou, continues to be his King of Zhou. It's just because he can be mediocre, his father wants to make a decree that the king of Zhou will not be allowed to enter the office, and the prince of the province will succeed to the throne in the future. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "The emperor is really thinking about His Royal Highness the Prince. In this way, after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince succeeds to the throne, there will be much less resistance. There are fewer constraints, too. ”

Princess Lichuan smiled: "Yes." Then there is the third brother King Qi. He has been deposed. His father still has feelings for him. told the prince that he would restore the king of Qi in the future, and he would be raised as an idle prince like the former prince, and he was not allowed to leave the capital or enter the office. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but say: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world." ”

Princess Lichuan sighed and said, "Yes." Then there is the princess of Huichuan, the father has left a large amount of money to Huichuan's sister, there are many precious objects, sealed in a treasure house, the key is controlled by the prince, the queen mother and the princess of the stone emperor, and when Huichuan grows up in the future, these are the dowry of Huichuan. ”

Chen Wenhui nodded.

Princess Lichuan said, "Then it's me." Earlier, my father asked me for my opinion. He wants to give me the city of Shanghai and the horses to guard it for generations. ”

This was said very lightly, but when Princess Lichuan said it, she looked at Chen Wenhui with blazing eyes. Chen Wenhui exclaimed: "Absolutely not." ”

A smile appeared on Princess Lichuan's face.

Chen Wenhui said: "Sister Princess. My Qingchun City, the emperor said to guard it for generations. My eldest brother's Xinguang City, the emperor also said to give my eldest brother to guard. My second brother's Tianshui City, the emperor also said that the second brother will be guarded for generations. These are fine. Because none of these can be said to be the land of Great Chu. But Shanghai is different. Shanghai City is too important, and whoever becomes the emperor can't tolerate someone digging a piece above his henchmen. This is a disaster for the princess. ”

Princess Lichuan smiled and said, "Wen Hui, you are really my good sister. You're genuinely thinking about me. You can understand, can I still not understand? Therefore, I categorically rejected my father's kindness. Not only that, but I also told my father that I don't want the shares of this Shanghai City. I beg my father to give me the territory of Siam in the South Seas. As my fiefdom. My horse and I are willing to guard the south gate for the sake of Dachu for generations. ”

Chen Wenhui was stunned and said with a smile: "This is good." That's how I was like a princess sister in the first place. Sister Princess is now finally determined to make it happen? ”

Princess Lichuan smiled like a flower and said, "Yes, it's better to give you the idea." That year, after you told me about this, my colt and I had already sent people to inspect there, and we had also made deals with some countries over there. Now, in a natural harbor along the coast, we have established a stronghold. As long as my father agrees, we are ready, and we can immediately send troops to occupy a place, build a coastal city, and then slowly develop it later. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but admire, Princess Lichuan and her husband were safe people, and this qiē was arranged very well: "I think the emperor must have agreed." Moreover, the princess sister told me about this because she wanted me to help talk to the black family, and ask the black family to help you build the city, right? ”

Princess Lichuan smiled and said, "Talking to you is to save trouble." That's right. My father was very pleased, and admitted that I was right, so he agreed that we should not want the shares of Shanghai City, and change it to the territory of Siam. For this we were given some people, and some craftsmen. Some money was also given. I asked for everything else, but money, I didn't ask for it. Although it is a piece of my father's heart, I am really not short of money. ”

This is very true, Princess Lichuan and her husband have controlled Shanghai City for so many years, and they have already made a fortune, not to mention anything else, just the annual dividend of 20% is 2 million taels of silver per year. How much has been accumulated over the years. Princess Lichuan was also the first person to participate in the sea trade, with a large fleet in her hands, and the profits brought by her every year were very objective. According to Chen Wenhui's conservative estimate, the annual profit can be more than 300,000 yuan. Counting these, Princess Lichuan is definitely the richest princess in the history of Da Chu.

Therefore, when Chen Wenhui heard this, she couldn't help laughing. (To be continued......)
