Chapter 82: The Edge Is Revealed
The big room in the eldest princess's mansion has made such a fuss here, and the second room is also worried. Tian Zhenbian, who had been busy all day, said to his wife Chen Yuanfang: "You can rest for a while, you have been busy for so long." ”
Chen Yuanfang said to Tian Zhenbian: "Master, although the economy has given us such a long face today, the emperor also appreciates the industry. But I always feel unsteady in my heart. ”
Tian Zhenbian said: "I think so too. Looking at the economy is to give us a long face, to give us a long face in the house, the emperor appreciates it, but this is sharp. Moreover, this time the attack was too widespread, and it offended those corrupt people too much at once. The wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind. ”
Saying this, Chen Yuanfang was even more worried and asked, "Then what should I do?" Why don't we ask Mother? Or maybe it's my father? ”
Tian Zhenbian said: "Naturally, there is nothing to do now. The emperor appreciates Jingye so much, and the future of Jingye should be very good. But there are many people who have offended, and they may become lonely ministers in the future. ”
Chen Yuanfang's willow eyebrows furrowed.
Tian Zhenbian said: "Our house has always been very beautiful, and that's because my mother is the eldest princess of Da Chu, and there are few princesses in Da Chu, and each of them is powerful and rich. What's more, our mother is the eldest princess, the emperor's own sister. However, this is all the moon in the water. Mother is getting older day by day, how long can she be with us? Didn't you see the Qi family? Wasn't the Qi family also very rich and noble at the beginning, but after the princess died, didn't she also fall? If you hadn't opened an auction house, you might have a problem eating. That's why there are no talented people in future generations. ”
Chen Yuanfang nodded and said, "Most of the princesses in Da Chu are powerful and wealthy when the princess is alive. But once the princess dies, the family will quickly fall. ”
Tian Zhenbian said: "Therefore, my mother not only worked hard to train my two brothers, but also was very strict with the training of her grandchildren. Although our family is rich. But my mother is not extravagant, and she governs the family very strictly, just because I am afraid that we will follow in the footsteps of the Qi family in the future. ”
Chen Yuanfang still sincerely admires this princess's mother-in-law, the eldest princess's heart and wisdom are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Tian Zhenbian continued: "Although there are many people who have offended Jingye this time, it is not impossible to solve the future problems. ”
Chen Yuanfang hurriedly asked, "What should I do?" ”
Tian Zhenbian said: "Our two brothers are now deeply trusted by the emperor. That's because the two of us are the emperor's nephews. However, in the future, the crown prince ascended the throne. What are we? Our relationship with the prince is not very good. Although, you are the aunt of the crown princess, however, the news I got is. The crown princess was not favored. What will it be like in the court in the future, I don't know yet? The current queen is your own sister. However, can the future queen be a member of your Chen family, is it the crown princess? I think it's very likely that the Bai family's Liangdi will get this position. Right now. Bai Liangdi doesn't lack anything, just waiting to give birth to a son, and she is better than the crown princess. ”
Chen Yuanfang is very clear about this matter. Wen Yan sighed.
Tian Zhenbian said: "However, there is no way for us in the palace. But we still have a way outside the palace. Who is the most trusted person by the Prince? It's your third brother Chen Yuanheng. Then there is his left and right hand Liu Jingyuan. Among them, Liu Jingyuan's wife is the righteous daughter of your third brother and sister. Therefore, in the future, your third brother's power is just around the corner. It would also be a good idea if we could get closer to the Xiao Chen family. Although Jingye has offended those corrupt people now, but who are you for? ”
Chen Yuanfang immediately laughed: "Isn't it for those corrupt Confucians to criticize the third brother's dowry?" Well, the third brother's family are all affectionate and righteous people, we will stand up for them this time, they will definitely keep it in mind, and in the future, they will definitely look at the industry differently. Okay, let's not worry, the future will be talked about later. ”
Tian Zhenbian laughed.
The richest and most magnificent house in the eldest princess's mansion is the main house where the eldest princess lives on the middle road. Since the death of the concubine many years ago, the eldest princess has lived in seclusion, spending most of her time in the eldest princess's mansion.
At this moment, the eldest princess was listening to the reply of her close grandmother, and she said, "Hey, the second two are smart people." The second daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Chen family. Whether it is the power of the Xiao Chen family or the power of the big Chen family, she is all stained. The business is so competitive again, I don't worry about them. However, the boss is a pity. Obviously he is a smart person and has outstanding abilities, but it's all my fault, why did you find him a Ren in the first place? In the future, as soon as I close my eyes, the second family will definitely be able to live well, and it is possible to become more and more prosperous. But what about the boss, there is no capable housewife, and the boss is difficult to support alone. ”
The grandmother hurriedly apologized: "Princess, don't worry, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." I think the eldest lady behaves very well, but the princess is partial to the younger son. ”
This grandmother was originally the eldest princess's personal palace maid, and she grew up with the eldest princess since she was a child, and she was very affectionate, so she could speak like this in front of the eldest princess.
The eldest princess smiled and said, "Where am I eccentric little son, what I said is true." You don't have to call me haha. What is Ren, you don't know? Over the years, I have promoted the Chen family everywhere, is that because I am partial? That's because Ren can't take it. It's okay to have me pressing now, but when I close my eyes in the future, no one can control Ren's, and she is a sister-in-law, so maybe what will happen? No, I have to plan in advance, and I can't give Ren a chance to harm my business. By the way, why hasn't Shuyuan come back these days? ”
Mama hurriedly said: "The county lord has been doing business recently, and he is very busy, so he has no time to come back. I think that after a while, she will come back to visit the princess when she is done. ”
The eldest princess hurriedly asked, "What kind of business is she doing?" ”
Mama said, "Isn't it because the two of them went to Luzon?" Now there is a lot of production there. The lord of the county bought a sea boat, ran the business of the sea route, and made a lot of money. Look, princess, when the lord comes back, I'll definitely bring you overseas gifts. ”
The eldest princess dotes on this daughter the most, and when she mentions her daughter, she is in a good mood, and says with a smile: "She also brought me a gift, which time gave me a gift, didn't she bring one back ten?" ”
Mama also laughed along.
The eldest princess came and asked with interest: "Do you know what kind of sea trade business Shuyuan does?" ”
The grandmother hurriedly said, "There are many of them, there are flavors, snowflake candy, and a very delicious fruit candy, and there are beautiful furniture, all of which are made of precious rosewood, mahogany, and sandalwood." There are also exquisite gems and pearls, as well as delicate embroidery, the pattern, and we are usually used to those plum chrysanthemums and pine cranes, are some Luzon, or Yizhou Island big, gorgeous flowers, you don't say, it's really beautiful, even an old woman like me looks at it. ”
The eldest princess smiled and said, "You are all an old woman, and you still want to learn from young people to wear those big flower clothes, and see that your granddaughter-in-law doesn't laugh at you." ”
The grandmother joked and said, "What's the joke, I'm not afraid of jokes, I'm only afraid of my daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law and I strong fabric." ”
Hahaha, the eldest princess couldn't help but laugh.
In the palace, Empress Chen accompanied the emperor to laugh, and Concubine Shi also sat next to her. Empress Chen said: "Jingye, this kid is really a capable and upright child, after a few years of training, the construction of Nanyang is good, the emperor should transfer him back." I think he can be of great use. ”
The emperor was very happy and said, "I think so too. In a few years' time, they all returned to the capital, and just by virtue of the credit for expanding their territory overseas, I would have to reuse him. Well, I used to be optimistic about him. Speaking of which, the eldest sister's body is not as good as day by day, and she is really afraid that she will hear bad news one day. I am even more afraid that the eldest sister will be gone, and her children and grandchildren will become the same as the second sister's Qi family. Now I am very pleased to see that my eldest sister's grandson is doing so well. ”
Empress Chen knew that the emperor's sister and brother were deeply affectionate, so she said: "The business is so promising, it's not that the eldest princess has a good upbringing." By the way, the reason for this incident is that I married the second son-in-law in my third brother's family. It looks like the end is coming. It is estimated that Wen Lin should also come back. When Wen Lin comes back, is the emperor going to summon Wen Lin? ”
The emperor said, "That's for sure." This marriage of his was given by me. Queen, you have to remember that when Chen Wenlin gets married, you will have to give things over. ”
Shi Guifei pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Not only the emperor, but the queen wants to give things over." The concubine also wants to give something over. After all, the concubine's younger sister is Lord Chen's own sister. ”
The emperor laughed and said, "Yes, how did I forget about this." The concubine wants to give something to the past. If there's anything missing, just tell me. ”
Empress Chen couldn't help but glance at Shi Guifei. Shi Guifei hurriedly said: "This little thing, the concubine still came out." I don't dare to ask for the emperor's things anymore. Since Huichuan was born, I have been in this palace every day, and the emperor's and queen's rewards have been embarrassed. ”
The emperor laughed again and said, "Concubine Ai is still a humble person, and she is not greedy for things at all. ”
Shi Guifei glanced at the queen and said: "The emperor and the queen's love for Huichuan has made us ashamed, and the prince and the princess also love this little sister very much. Every once in a while, I send someone to deliver something to my sister. Huichuan likes his brother and sister-in-law the most, every time he wants the princess to hug, and he also likes to play with the princess's grandson, but he often messes with the generations. Laughing very much. The concubine is busy teaching Huichuan, this is a nephew, not an elder brother, you are an aunt. But what the concubine said, Huichuan ignored it, and hurriedly called his brother. ”
The emperor also laughed and said, "Huichuan is an aunt at such a young age, it's really funny." ”
Empress Chen was very satisfied with Concubine Shi's knowledge, and smiled silently. (To be continued)
