Why hasn't Hu Gangshou inquired about something like this?

But thinking of the Empress Dowager Wu who went through four dynasties in the palace, even if she was not the biological mother of the official family, who would dare to underestimate it?

The backstage of the Siming Wang's family is the Han Shen government in the outer courts, and isn't it the Empress Dowager Wu in the palace?

The lanterns were lit, and Ji Qingchen and his party in the corridor had already entered the middle hall, and Hu Gangshou recognized his wife Liu standing at the back door of the middle hall and welcomed Ji Qingchen in person.

He was also relieved, and his eyes turned to Xie Guoxing, the sixth son of Xie on the side.

"The little girl is in the palace, and I have to ask Xie Shanggong to take care of ......."

Xie Guoxing is Xie Guoyun's own brother, he looks similar, and he is also tall and big, but he has two neat mustaches on his lips.

The tall and thin Hu Gangshou stood beside him, like a small man.

He got the position of the head of the Xie family, and he had already heard that his younger brother Xie Guoyun was raising a little wife in Tangfang and changing the name of Fusang, but he never knew about it, and he tossed it in the East China Sea.

A few years ago, he was also introduced by Xie Guoyun and secretly met with Lou Yun.

Facing Hu Gangshou's inquiring eyes, he smiled and said:

"Uncle Hu rest assured. My aunt is in the palace, and she will naturally keep Mrs. County safe and smooth delivery. Although the old Shanggong of Deshou Palace, who is next to the Queen Mother, has been friends with the Wang family for a long time, she is old after all. The old eyes are dizzy and can't see what is going on in the palace. ”

Xie Guoxing's aunt, of course, is the Liupin Palace on the vertical arch hall and Xie Shang Palace.

And the old Shang Palace in the palace of the Empress Dowager Wu was originally the adoptive mother who was sent into the palace with the Wu family, and she experienced the official family of the Four Dynasties with the Empress Dowager Wu.

In addition to the position of the Shanggong of the six products. This old Shangguan is now also crowned as the county lady.

More than 40 years ago, this old Shang Palace once went out of the palace to the Wang family's shop to purchase Haizhu for the Wu family, who was still the lady of Yijun in the palace at that time. Naturally, there is a shrewd old lady Wang who has always been in a relationship.

Until now, the friendship is not deep.

The Siming Wang family has not had any children as officials for many years, and Wang Yushi Zhongcheng is a distant relative, and his official position is not as good as that of the Xie family's uncle.

But the Wang family still vaguely suppressed the Taizhou Xie family in the East China Sea.

It depends on this lady of the palace county.

But after all, it's also old.

Now that the palace has not yet been established, the female official who is relied on by the official family is the Xie family.

Although Xie is forty-three years old, just looking at the looks of the two brothers Xie Guoxing and Xie Guoyun, they know that their aunt Xie Shanggong must also be a beautiful woman with good appearance.

At least. The official family looked at her pleasing to the eye.

Hu Gangshou thought about marrying into Wang Shiliang's biological mother, his sister-in-law who was the main mother of the Wang family, and then he thought about the fourth daughter who was pregnant with a dragon fetus in the palace, weighing left and right. In the end, he was biased, gritted his teeth, and said:

"This is also to be loyal to the Great Song Dynasty and serve the official family. Since everyone inside and outside the DPRK said that South Korea's participation in politics has the selfish interests of seizing power. Of course, we, the merchants, have to stay away from them. Even if it's the Wang family. You'll understand. ”

Zhang Kongmu and Xie Guoxing looked at each other and smiled. knew that he was looking forward to his daughter giving birth to a boy and half a girl, and their Hu family's power in Mingzhou could overpower the Wang family.

The so-called hundred generations of family, why not start from his generation?

Hu Gang made up his mind to compete with the Siming Wang Clan, but he hesitated and said:

"Ji Fang owner is there ......"

Xie Guoxing was the head of the Xie family who accompanied Lou Yun this time, and he also had such scruples, so he nodded and said:

"She was very shrewd, and we drove her out of Minasota. She must have understood. I don't know what the situation is on the Fuso side. But we can't do business in the East China Sea without Tangfang. If she supports Wang Gangshou ......"

Zhang Kongmu knew their scruples, and said with a smile:

"Could it be that Gongzi Wenchang is not enough to match Master Ji? What does Wang Gangshou have to support her? ”

Hu Gang was stunned. also laughed at the same time as Xie Guoxing, Xie Guoxing shook his head and sighed;

"Master Zhang is right. If Brother Centennial had married her at the beginning, where would she allow Lord Lou and the Chen family to enter the East China Sea? To put it mildly, if my uncle and grandfather are angry, if there is no Lord Lou who has repeatedly protected him in front of the official family, how can it be so easy for his uncle and grandfather to recover? ”

One hundred years is Wang Shiqiang's expression.

Hu Gangshou only felt that he was related, and sighed even more:

"Speaking of their marriage, I was also asked by the owner of Ji Fang to pass a message to my sister, wanting them to get married. If Shiqiang's nephew didn't want to be troublesome and married the owner of Ji Fang directly, wouldn't this Chuyang River be the final say of our Jiangsu, Zhejiang and maritime merchants? ”

Zhang Kongmu is not good at interjecting in these old things, just laughing and listening, he knows that these two people are also because they are under the power of Wang Shiqiang, and they have to find enough reasons to turn their faces.

Xie Guoxing shook his head and said:

"He has to marry Miss Lou, what can we do? Although Master Ji is now doing business with Huang Gangshou in the face of him, only she knows what she thinks in her heart. ”

After Hu Gangshou complained about this, he also felt that Ji Qingchen could not be of the same mind as Wang Shiqiang no matter what.

Zhang Kongmu knew that they didn't want to offend her too much, so he smiled and said bluntly:

"Before Lord Lou returned to the Great Song Dynasty, he had a word for me, that is, he hoped to ensure that she got married as soon as possible. You also know the ability of the owner of Ji Fang to tie people. Since Master Lou was invited by her, personally confessed this sentence, and left me, I must also do this for her. ”

Xie Guoxing knew for the first time that he was deliberately left by Lou Yun to protect the media, so he couldn't help but smile in surprise and said:

"Lord Zhang, I didn't see that you were protecting the media, if you hadn't said it clearly, I would have thought that Lord Lou would be eager to sell Chen Wenchang for a sky-high price and ask her to buy people with her full wealth."

Hu Gangshou also stroked his palms and laughed.

"Exactly. I can also be regarded as watching Ji Fang Master grow from thirteen or fourteen years old to what she is now, and I know how powerful she is. I found out for the first time that she was actually willing to quarrel with San Lang and Chen Gangshou for Chen Wenchang, and she just sat and bowed her head and pretended to be virtuous. Didn't you see Wang Shiqiang's face, the first time he saw her like this, his face turned blue with anger at that time——"

Xie Guoxing pondered for a while, but still asked tentatively:

"What does Lord Lou mean, do you really want to protect her and Chen Wenchang?"

Not a demolition?

Zhang Kongmu smiled calmly and said:

"Lou Daren recruited merchants in Quanzhou to open up financial resources. As early as before he went to the mission, he had prepared for her the registration documents of the five hundred people, and he was naturally eager to seek talent. We asked her to go to Quanzhou earlier, take refuge under the wing of Lord Lou, and prepare to expand the port on Ryukyu Island in the future. The people who settled her. Isn't that a good thing? What's more—"

When he said this, he looked around, there were only three of them on the Wangjiang Tower, and Chen Hong was not invited to the meeting.

"Even if she can't meddle in the Chuyang River, the Chen family can go to build a wharf. As long as she has the ability, isn't the Chen family's dock still hers? ”

Hu Gang was stunned for a moment, and instantly realized that it was impossible for Chen Hong's concubine to inherit the family business.

Although Chen Wenchang married a girl, Lou Yun even left his personal servant Junmo to help the two families get married, and there would be no reason.

Maybe he intended to support Chen Wenchang as the head of the family and let Ji Qingchen take advantage of it?

Compared with the Chen family's huge net worth in Quanzhou, the wharf on the Chuyang Canal, of course, she can back down.

When he thought of this, he was overjoyed, so he smiled reassuringly, and said:

"I also thought that San Lang was also in Mingzhou. drove his sister and brother away, for fear of offending him. He's only been angry with his sister. But as long as the dock can fall into the hands of the owner of Ji Fang in the future, San Lang will be satisfied. ”

Xie Guoxing also understood it at this time, although he still had some questions, but he felt that it was not impossible, so he smiled and said:

"San Lang is a man, but after all, this is the Great Song Dynasty, and those hundreds of barbarians in Fanfang are not the enemy of San Lang?"

Walk down from the Hufu River Chao Pavilion, walk a hundred steps to the left and walk through the lotus pond and the water, which is the front hall where the foreign men hold their feasts.

The front hall is backwards, zigzag through the door guarded by the small servants on the back floor of the rockery. Walk up another pavilion slope and walk through the flower gate guarded by the servants on the first floor.

In this way, after going down a winding mountain corridor, we arrived at the central hall where the female guests were seated.

"The owner means ......"

Mrs. Hu Liu held the tea in her hand, almost not believing what she heard, "Shunchang County Lord she ......"

The most important thing in Mingzhou City is the water garden lake, Hufu Zhongtang is also built near the lake, tonight after the rain with heat, lattice windows are demolished

went down, and it became a hall with wind on all sides.

Ji Qingchen sat on the corridor sticking out of the water, shaking his fan, and said with a smile:

"She was a little weak and was recuperating on a passenger ship in Taohuadu. I don't seem to be optimistic about her weakness in Mingzhou City. It's better to go to the capital. But I don't have much friendship with her. It's hard to persuade—"

She smiled slowly, knowing that she didn't need to be too clear in front of Liu.

Of course she understands.

Over the years, she and Mrs. Hu Liu have also communicated with each other, and exchanged New Year's gifts across the sea.

This is also because she was going to marry with Wang Shiqiang to Mingzhou City, and she was ready to deal with the local maritime merchants and daughters early.

Liu is Liu Gangshou's cousin, a woman from a businessman's background.

Mrs. Hu Si Niangzi of Gongzhong County was also raised under her knees since she was a child.

When Hu Gang first went to sea, in addition to the help of a few brothers in the family's business, of course, the property of his house was still the owner of the Liu family.

The palace sealed the will of the county lady, and it was also the will of the Hu lady Liu to take it......

Of course she will understand what she should understand.

“…… The owner is right. It stands to reason that the county lord is related to the Loufu, and since she has some weak diseases and needs to see a doctor, she should have said something to the Loufu. But ......"

This is the first time Liu has seen Ji Qingchen, and he specially took her into the hall in person, and has been talking a lot with her. I want to make a good impression on her. Unexpectedly, Ji Qingchen surprised her even more.

She knew in her heart that her husband Hu Gangshou wanted to fall to Lou Yun's side, and planned to marry the Xie family for the sake of the daughter in the palace.

She quickly calculated and immediately understood that this was an opportunity to send her door to Lou Yun. (To be continued......)
