Li Shi held back a mouthful of anger in his heart, and said in a manic voice: "Master, is it so easy to build a Taoist temple?" Even if it is built in the suburbs outside the capital, this Taoist temple for the imperial concubine to live in is not good, there are only three houses and a small courtyard, right? How can there be a front hall and a back porch, a cross courtyard, a lecture hall, a scripture pavilion, a dining hall, a garden, etc., and it must be built beautifully, which can be solved by 350,000 taels of silver? ”

When Chen Yuanluan heard that he wanted so much money, he hesitated a little and said: "However, it won't work if you don't build it, after all, Niangniang is the mother of our family, and according to the rules, worshipping Niangniang should also be our family." ”

Li said: "This is true. However, has the old man thought about it, what did the two ladies enter the palace for? Isn't it to help the queen win favor? Although the queen mother has won the trust of the emperor, she is already old after all, how can she compete for the first beauty in the harem, Wan Guifei? The queen mother let our daughter enter the palace, helped her get the emperor's favor, and finally got the throne. For a time, the power of the Chen family rose sharply, and the power of the queen mother rose sharply. But what did we get in the second room? Sir, aren't you still out yet? ”

When Chen Yuanluan heard this, the anger in his heart also came up and said: "Yes, there is a Chen Wenfeng in the big house, it is the crown princess, the big house is now prominent, and the door is like a market, but our family also has two mothers, what did our family get?" The two mothers did not bring any benefit to our family. Even if it's to give me an official position, or to give Wen Hao an official position. Nothing, it's really infuriating. ”

Li heard that there was a door. Busy continued: "Look, the girl of our family was sent to the palace and was favored by the emperor, and the benefits were given to the Chen family's mansion, as well as to the big house, to the queen's mother, and even to the third room. Isn't the third uncle of the third room rising step by step, and the children of their third room are all high-ranking officials? But we didn't get anything, and now the two mothers are in trouble, and they think that the mother is from our second room. I want our second room to worship two mothers. Why? I think. This money should come from the mansion. After all, the Chen family got the greatest benefit. Or the queen can go out, they are there to compete for the queen's favor. Even the big house should come out, without the efforts of the three ladies in the palace, Chen Wenfeng can become the crown princess. Can she be a queen in the future? The three-room should also be out. Their three rooms are not less polished. It's just that our family shouldn't be out. ”

Chen Yuanluan felt very reasonable and said, "What Madame said makes sense. Wait until I tell them all about this truth, and see if they are embarrassed to let us worship Niangniang? ”

Li Shi hurriedly grabbed Chen Yuanluan and said, "Master, you must not say it so bluntly. Careful people misunderstand that we are stingy. ”

Chen Yuanluan smiled and said, "Am I such a stupid person? ”

After speaking, Chen Yuanluan walked out.

Li himself sat in the room for a while, thinking to himself: Hmph, you still want me to pay for Aunt Sun's cheap daughter to build a Taoist temple, where can I be in this mood? Aunt Sun has relied on her daughter to enter the palace in the past few years, and she has not made less money, why didn't she pay for her daughter to build a Taoist temple? Besides, concubine, Concubine Shu has been in the palace for so many years, and she has won the favor of the emperor, can she still have two private money? Why do you want to blackmail your mother's family to worship them at this time? and her mother-in-law, Li, is also very annoying. Obviously, she got the most benefits, and her father-in-law said that he wanted to build a beautiful Taoist temple with money from the public, but her mother-in-law held on to the money and didn't give it away, which was really a search. I don't know, why does she want so much silver? Do you want to take it to the coffin when you are old?

There is also the queen mother, who is rich all over the world, and has an extremely rich daughter, Princess Lichuan, who earns millions of dollars every year, and the little leakage in her hand is enough to build a Taoist temple. Why are you reluctant to take it out to build a Taoist temple for your two nieces? The two nieces have dedicated their lives to her posteriority.

As for the money in his own family, he can't take it out and give it to those two cheap women. These are not enough to give Wen Jin, Wen Jin is actually very hard-working in the clan land, if there is no money, he will have to endure hardship, and now the Li family is thinking of a way to make money, so that the daughter in the clan land can live a better life.

A day later, the matter of building a Taoist temple has come out of the second room. The second room is full of words, the two mothers are sacrificed for everyone in the Chen family, how can they worship the mother, and the second room is a family? The second room does not do such a loss-making thing.

As soon as the news came out, the old lady Li was half dead in anger, where would she have thought that the person who stabbed her in the back was actually her maiden niece and second daughter-in-law who she had been promoting? The queen was also very angry, and the second room kept saying that Chen Wenhua and Chen Wenjuan entered the palace for her favor, and now they have no use value, so they have to be thrown back to their parents' family, which is really immoral.

The queen smashed a bottle in the palace angrily.

Sisters Chen Wenjuan and Chen Wenhua were crying in the queen's palace. Chen Wenhua said: "Our sisters have made a lot of contributions to the Chen family over the years, but there is no merit and hard work. But when it was time to save us, our father and grandmother left us, what should we do? Is it really necessary to spend the rest of your life in a royal temple? Auntie, you still let the two sisters be martyred, and save the life of the crime. can also give the Chen family a good reputation. ”

When he said this, Bai happened to be in the palace to persuade the queen not to be angry. After she listened, she looked at the embarrassed queen, then at Chen Wenhua and Chen Wenjuan, and swallowed the words that came to her lips again.

The queen only felt that the corners of her forehead were tight and painful, and she held back her anger and said, "You two stupid children." I am your aunt, the three of us have been together in this palace for so many years, and we are closer than my own mother and daughter, how could I leave you? In fact, how much money can it cost to build a Taoist temple or build it in the suburbs and mountains? I can do it alone. However, I am the queen, if I build a Taoist temple for you, there are so many women in this palace, what will I do when the time comes? ”

Sister Chen Wenhua also knew this truth, and couldn't help crying louder. Chen Wenjuan said: "Actually, after so many years in the palace, our sisters are still favored by the emperor, and the two of us sisters also have some private money, and it is enough to take them out to build a Taoist temple." However, if we build it ourselves, and other palace concubines will follow suit, won't the rules in this palace change? The idea we had in mind didn't work either. ”

Yes, if everyone is like this, how can the Chen sisters escape the fate of being buried or entering the royal temple with this method?

The queen also had a sad face. I hate the second room who doesn't know how to lift to death.

At this time, Bai Shi felt that the time had come and said, "This matter, the crown princess and Wen Hui talked about it yesterday. ”

Everyone was stunned, and the queen frowned and asked, "What did the crown princess say?" ”

Bai said: "The crown princess wants to learn from the Chen family daughters of the previous generation, learn from her aunts, watch and help each other, have a deep sisterhood, and get through difficulties together." Therefore, the crown princess taught our family Wenhui to help a few more sisters. Among them, it was said that he helped Wen Yuan, and he also talked about helping Guifei Niangniang and Shufei Niangniang. I also talked about the Taoist temple. After going back, Wen Hui and I discussed the matter. Wen Hui meant that she came to pay for her sisters to build this Taoist temple. In terms of identity, she is the sister of the two mothers, and she is also the county lord of the imperial court, and it is appropriate to worship the mother in the palace. In terms of official position, she is the first-class city lord of Dachu, and the two ladies pray for the emperor, as the city lord, she should also express her heartfelt desire to establish the Taoist temple, and also pray for the emperor to repay the emperor's kindness. ”

The queen's face was happy, and Chen Wenhua and Chen Wenjuan were very moved. The queen said: "Wen Hui is really a good boy. It's hard for her to think so thoughtfully at such a young age. It's so generous. However, she is the youngest one, let her pay, where to put the faces of our people, simply, this name is borne by her. This Taoist temple must be built with the best, which shows the sincerity of our Chen family to pray for the emperor. As for the question of money, how much will it cost at that time, you tell me, I will give it to you quietly in private, and I will definitely not let Wen Hui, a good boy who has not come out of the cabinet, suffer. ”

Chen Wenhua and Chen Wenjuan reacted at this time, and hurriedly said: "Third aunt, how can this money be paid by my sister?" My sister didn't help her with anything, but let my sister worry about us again and again. This money, our sister is out, I just ask my sister to take on a reputation, the third aunt, I am grateful if I worry about covering it. ”

Bai smiled and said: "Wen Hui and I both understand the beauty of the queen mother and the two mothers. Since Wen Hui said that she would pay for it, let her pay for it. Yesterday, I told her that I would let her take on the reputation, and I would pay for it. Our Xiao Chen family is wealthy, but Da Chu is famous. But do you know what this kid told me? ”

The queen hurriedly asked, "What do you say?" ”

Bai Shi first laughed, and said forcibly: "She said, aren't I the richest girl in Dachu personally sealed by the emperor?" What is this money? I not only want to come out, but also to cover it beautifully, ask the master of the Hei family to design it, and I must let the people of the world see that the emperor is not wrong. ”

When she said this, the queen laughed, and Chen Wenhua and Chen Wenjuan also burst into tears and laughed.

The queen's palace was full of laughter again. Yu'er, the palace maid guarding outside the main hall, smiled heartily, Mrs. Chen San is really a talent, nothing can be difficult for her, she can solve all the problems for the queen mother as soon as she arrives. That's why the queen believes in her. Mrs. Wang in the big room and Mrs. Li in the second room really can't catch up. It's ridiculous that they still say that the queen is biased every day, and she is towards the third lady who is out of the concubine. But as long as they are not so short-sighted and selfish, will the queen let her brother-in-law and daughter-in-law not favor her, but favor a brother-in-law? (To be continued......)
