As soon as Wen Hui's words came out, Bai and Chen Yuanheng were taken aback, and said together: "No." ”

Wen Hui's brows furrowed immediately. Bai said: "Your father is going on business, so you can't go with him." ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "According to the specifications, officials from other provinces are not allowed to bring their families when they are promoted. As soon as Wen Hui heard that this court also had regulations, she didn't speak. Chen Yuanheng looked at Wen Hui with an unhappy look and said: "We will have the opportunity to go back to the capital in the future, that is our home, and we plan to buy a big house there in two years, and you will be tired of living there." ”

Wen Hui thought about it, but their home was in the capital, so she was not in a hurry to see it. He said, "Okay, I'm not going to follow, I still have important things to do anyway." We discussed it yesterday, and I thought about going to Heyang Prefecture with Ziyu Li Huan. I have already been to Heyang Prefecture once, and I am very familiar with it, and I am familiar with the officials of the four most affected prefectures, and I can save a lot of trouble by going with him. ”

Chen Yuanheng thought about it and said: "Originally, I wanted to tell you, because there have been too many things recently, so I delayed." You're now ten years old and you're starting to keep your head. For those of us girls from the family, this is about to start taking care of things, in fact, you have already started to take care of things. In addition to this, at the age of ten, the daughters of the family will be equipped with guards. Originally, you couldn't be worthy. Because I am a concubine, I belong to the side branch, but because of the money we gave to the clan last time, I have now recognized that I can count one of my own coins to the clan, so that you and your brothers are all concubines. You should be fitted with a guard. ”

Bai Shi laughed when he heard this, and said, "The last time you went out with the four princes, your master should have followed, after all, she has kung fu." But I didn't let her follow, because I wanted her to do this big thing for you, that is, to choose a guard for you. Originally, a newly established branch like ours usually gave the girl a maximum of five or ten guards. There are even those who can't afford it. Our family is not afraid of spending this money now, so I asked your master to choose a guard for you, about a hundred guards, and ten personal female guards. I also need to find a captain of the guard who can lead. Your master should come back in the next two days, you wait two more days, and let Ziyu and Li Huan go first. You go back then, take your guards with you, so it's safer, and come on. You can work a little more with your own guards. After all. These hands may be used for a lifetime, even if they are married. ”

Wen Hui stuck out her tongue when she heard this, "Oh my God, one hundred and eleven people, how much does this cost?" Monthly money per month. We also have to give them clothes, by the way, we also have to buy them weapons, this is very expensive, and we have to eat, we have to practice, and we have to live in a house, oh my God, how much does it cost? ”

Bai laughed and said, "Actually, except for yours. Your eldest brother and I gave him money last time to recruit guards, and gave him money for 200 guards. Your second brother went back to the capital this time, and I also gave him money, which is also the money for 200 guards, which is much less than your brother. ”

Wen Hui said: "No wonder. I found that we have a lot more money in our house now, which is really a lot of money. ”

Chen Yuanheng said with a smile: "Making money is to spend money, or else, it's a miser." ”

Wen Hui smiled embarrassedly. I thought to myself, in this ancient society, it was easy to make money, and it turned out that it was easy to spend money. If it was in a previous life, these security jobs were handed over to the state and society, such as security guards, police, and the military. But here, if you want to defend your property, you have to hire bodyguards to protect the courtyard and guard, which is really a lot of money.

The three of them said something more and dispersed.

The next day, they were busy, Bai and Chen Wenhui went to the bank for a loan, and at the same time prepared things for Chen Yuanheng, such as bringing some side dishes to eat on the road, as well as things to give gifts after returning to the capital. Chen Wenhui also prepared three gifts for the emperor with ingenuity, namely cotton, corn, and sweet potatoes.

Three days later, Chen Yuanheng and the envoy set off for the capital.

Ziyu and Li Huan also began to go to Heyang Prefecture with silver and seeds. Wen Hui stayed at home and waited for her master Wu Yuxia to return.

The Jin County Mansion in the capital, since the fourth prince Liu Yan came back, the County Palace's Mansion has been lively. Because this time the four princes did a good job, they were rewarded by the emperor many times, and the emperor allowed him not to go to school, and he started to work directly, that is, he followed the court every day, although he did not give any official position, but it has caused officials in the capital to talk about it. Everyone speculates whether the third prince is going to fall out of favor this time, the fourth prince is going to be favored, and whether he is going to win the throne in the future.

As soon as their minds moved, these officials couldn't sit still, and they all began to find excuses to move around with Liu Yan, and the Jinjun Mansion also began to be lively, with people coming and going every day. Fortunately, the princess is very capable, and the affairs of the palace are assigned in an orderly manner, and the servants perform their duties without chaos at all, which makes the officials who come and go admire, and the court of the four princes is solemn.

In contrast, there are still three adult princes in the capital, and the three princes have not yet got married, so naturally the house is a little messy, and this is preparing for the wedding, and the chaos is normal. The second prince's mansion is the most chaotic, because the second prince is a dizzy person, and he has a courtyard of women, where can the princess control the second prince, but the temperament is fierce, and he always quarrels with the second prince, and the mansion is full of smoke and miasma. The prince's mansion is relatively better, the princess has an ordinary background, but her ability is still okay, not as good as Chen Wenfeng, but it is okay to manage a mansion.

The prince is also greedy and lustful, but in order to take care of his image, the prince is still very interesting and does not bring women to the house, so the prince's mansion is quite peaceful. But this peace was also broken, because the prince accepted four Liangdi at once, all of whom were from big families. In comparison, Chen Liangdi and the crown princess are the lowest-born. Among them, Chen Liangdi is Chen Wenyuan, who is from the Chen family, but she is a concubine. The crown princess is even worse, just from an ordinary official family. These are not enough in front of the three Liangdi who came from a family.

Therefore, as soon as the three Liangdi entered the mansion, they naturally hugged each other and looked down on the crown princess. The crown princess was suppressed, but the prince was a person who liked the new and hated the old, and with these four beauties like flowers and jade, it was the time to be interesting, where could I see the princess. In this way, the position of the crown princess Ren is in jeopardy.

At this time, a person extended a hand of friendship to the crown princess Ren, and Ren was inexplicably moved. This person is Chen Wenfeng. At that time, Liu Yan was still in disaster relief, and Chen Wenfeng was not idle in the capital, often going to banquets and making friends with officials and family members. In a banquet, Chen Wenfeng deliberately befriended Ren. This is very natural in the eyes of outsiders, because the two of them are royal daughters-in-law, they are concubines, so they are naturally closer, but Ren knows in his heart that the crown prince and the fourth prince have always been at odds.

At this banquet, the crown princess Ren was ridiculed by a girl from a family because of a problem with her dress, and she hid in the garden angrily and sulked. Chen Wenfeng saw that the opportunity was coming, so he hurriedly asked the people around him to follow him from afar, and found Ren alone. At first, he comforted Ren, and when Ren's feelings eased, Ren said: "Brother and sister, I know that you have always been very good to me. Thank you, it's just that I think there is some disagreement between the prince and the fourth child, and I have always been embarrassed to associate with you. Failed you. ”

Chen Wenfeng said: "Sister-in-law, don't care about the affairs between their brothers, they are close relatives, and it is tempting to have opinions, but blood is thicker than water." We'll just take care of ours. I know that my sister-in-law has had a hard time lately. You have to look at this for yourself, who made us the daughter-in-law of the royal family? The main responsibility of the royal daughter-in-law is to work for the royal family. In addition to having children himself, he also has to give his husband a lot of concubines, so that more branches and leaves can be scattered. ”

Ren nodded. Chen Wenfeng continued: "But ah, this suffering is only known to us. What woman likes to share her husband with another woman? Sister-in-law, I didn't say you, you are the crown princess, except for the queen in the world, you are the most noble among women, and you have to show the posture of your main room. No matter what the identity of these good women was before they got married, since they entered the royal door, they had to follow the royal rules, and those who did not accept it had to be taught a lesson. ”

When Ren heard this, tears almost fell and said, "Brother and sister, where can you be like me, you used thunderous means to deal with the disobedient Tongyu." That's the fourth child supporting you. Where can I compare, the one in my family still spoils them and messes with me. ”

Chen Wenfeng held Ren's hand sympathetically and said, "Hey, that's what I said." But this is also because you didn't help the prince's brother. Although we don't go out to do errands like men, we also have to have our own power, otherwise, the husband will look down on us. You see, you have always lived in seclusion, and you don't associate with you, how can this work? If you want to associate with these ladies like me, and if you have a reputation and power in the social world, the prince's brother will naturally be kind to you. ”

When Ren said this, his heart moved, and he said, "I think so too." But, you know, I come from an ordinary background, I'm always afraid of making mistakes, and I'm not very good at interacting with people. ”

When Chen Wenfeng heard this, he really looked at her in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but said very generously: "What are you afraid of, you are the crown princess, only they come to associate with you, where do you need to beg them." Besides, we can be together, and I will call you to have a banquet in the future. And you have to change your clothes, if you want to be more luxurious, you have to have the posture of the crown princess. I'll give you an introduction to my third uncle's Cuijin Building, and let the best embroiderer in their family design clothes for you to ensure that they look good. That's all right, right? ”

Ren was very moved. Chen Wenfeng said again: "As for the family? I have an idea to help you deal with those four good women in your backyard, but I don't know if my sister-in-law will dislike me for meddling in your housework? ”

When Ren heard this, it was like a life-saving straw, and he hurriedly said: "Good sister, you are my own sister, how can I blame you for meddling in my housework?" You're saving me, sister-in-law, it's too late to thank you, what should I do if you tell me? ”

Chen Wenfeng thought in his heart, what he was waiting for was your words.
