Liu Jingyuan's face darkened and said, "I'm disappointed in this. Although the crown princess has a lot of problems. However, the crown princess treats the prince sincerely. Moreover, we didn't have anything back then, the prince was still an inconspicuous prince, where was there anyone in the capital who valued him? However, after the crown princess got married, she helped the prince establish a personal relationship, and the Chen family helped the prince step by step, so that he could become the crown prince. However, you see, now the Bai family can get this qiē lightly, hmph, to the Chen family, to the crown princess, doesn't the prince feel indebted? ”

Chen Wenhui snorted coldly in her heart, before, she had noticed that Liu Yan was a cold-hearted person, although he had always liked her, but Chen Wenhui was still not fascinated by his peerless appearance. If you fall in love with this kind of person, it will be the ruin of your life, or Zhao Chongyi.

Chen Yuanheng said: "The prince still cares about our Chen family. But the rules are there. In the future, the queen will become the queen mother, and the crown princess will become the queen, isn't this against the ancestral teachings? ”

Chen Wenhui said: "What is there, the rules are used to break." Besides, Emperor Guanglie made this rule in order not to let his descendants get married. But even if the eldest aunt becomes the queen mother, the emperor was not born to her. There is no blood relationship between the crown prince and the crown princess. ”

Chen Yuanheng frowned and said: "What Hui'er said also makes sense, forget it, this is all in the future, in fact, speaking of which, no matter which one is the queen, we are all the same." Although we are from the Chen family, there is nothing wrong with that. However, we have separated. It's the crown princess who became the queen, and she may not treat us as well as Bai Liangdi. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Liu, how is Wang Yaozhen?" ”

Mingzhu hurriedly said: "She is now a high-grade Wang Liangdi." is very majestic, relying on giving birth to a son, and sometimes giving the princess a look. She has the best relationship with Ma Liangdi now, Ma Liangdi did not give birth to a son, so they are a gang. The crown princess and Li Shuyu are in a group, and Bai Liangdi and the newcomer Li Liangdi are in a group. Anyway, the prince's inner house is very chaotic. Well, it is said that it is more complicated than the emperor's harem now. ”

Bai said: "The emperor's harem is very calm. The women of our Chen family accounted for three. The queen has the skills of the royal family, and the management of a harem is strict and rigorous. Even the courtiers praised it. said that this dynasty finally produced a virtuous queen. But. The most favored in the harem is your senior sister, Shi Guifei. The emperor's love for Princess Huichuan from Shi Guifei is indescribable. ”

Chen Wenhui frowned and said, "Concubine Shi is also blessed." ”

Bai said: "Concubine Shi is also an outlier in the harem. In terms of beauty, she is not as good as Concubine Zhao, in terms of talent and family background, she is not as good as Concubine Chen's sisters, the only thing is that she has Princess Huichuan, and she is actually more favored than those concubines who gave birth to princes, which is really strange. It's rare that she has always been cautious, always looking at the queen's mother. ”

The Bai family is the queen's right and left hand, so he naturally knows more about the affairs of the harem.

Chen Yuanheng said: "Anyway, as long as the queen mother is in one day, our family can balance the day." In the future, the queen will become the queen mother, no matter who becomes the queen, she can't go past the queen mother, and we can still be peaceful. When the Queen Mother is gone, hmph, it's hard to say. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "When that time comes, we will grow up to be like the Chen family, so that the emperor does not dare to move." ”

Chen Wenjun and Chen Wenlin glanced at each other, although their current power is very large and expands rapidly, but this qiē is still not enough in front of the behemoth of the country, and they must seize the time to develop, so as to protect themselves.

Chen Yuanheng sighed and said: "We are now the best year of development, we have the right, the most important thing is to have money, but we have a fatal shortcoming, that is, we lack people." ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but look at Liu Jingyuan. Liu Jingyuan is a smart person, can he not understand what he means at this time? Liu Jingyuan thought for a while, knelt down on one knee and said, "Father-in-law, I don't know, can I join the camp of the Xiao Chen family." ”

Large families always have a lot of important subsidiary families. It is better to say that there are subsidiary families with the four surnames Cai, Shi, Shui, and Jin in the Chen family's land, and the patriarchs of those families are more powerful than Chen Yuanheng, the elder, and they are really the first patriarch of the Chen family, and they are the second. If the Xiao Chen family wants to develop into a clan land like the Chen family, it is naturally indispensable to have affiliated families, and Liu Jingyuan is willing to join, which is a good thing for both parties.

Chen Yuanheng laughed, and helped Liu Jingyuan up with the Bai family and said, "You husband and wife are originally part of our family." Isn't it? ”

Mingzhu was very happy, once she let go of her heart for many years, she felt a lot more relaxed, she said: "Yes, my father-in-law, my mother-in-law treats me like a daughter, and we are naturally a family." ”

Liu Jingyuan's heart is also a little lighter, although his power has become more and more powerful in recent years, but the height is unbearable, he often has a frightening feeling, and now that he has a backer, he finally feels a lot more relaxed.

Chen Wenhui said: "Okay, today is a good day, it's a pity that we have all eaten, but we can still have some supper, listen to a song, drink some wine, and celebrate." ”

Bai said, "Okay, you can bring any good things." ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly called people to spread the word of Kabuki and put on a banquet, and many people drank too much this night.

The next day, it was the twenty-ninth day of the Lunar New Year, and Chen Wenhui arranged for someone to take those officials to visit the market early in the morning. I could have visited the school, but unfortunately, the school has long been on winter vacation, so I can only go to the market.

Chinese New Year's Eve the following New Year, Chen Wenhui held a grand dinner, and for a while, singing and dancing were colorful, and Qingchun City was full of lights. It is worth mentioning that after the New Year, Chusanda Jingye and others also came. Chen Yuanheng was his uncle after all, so he naturally wanted to visit. Chen Wenqi strongly invited Chen Yuanheng and his party to go around Tongren City. So on the sixth day of the first lunar month, they all went to Tongren City to visit.

Chen Wenhui also went with her in order to spend more time with her parents. Anyway, everything in Qingchun City will be left to Wan Shuhui.

In Tongren City, Chen Yuanheng and those officials visited the well-developed agriculture of Tongren City, the new farming tools of the black family, the advanced cultivation technology, the lush crops, and the three farmlands next to each other, one of which was ready to be harvested, one was ready to be thrown into the ear, and the other was still planting seedlings. These officials were amazed and said that Nanyang is really a good place to grow food, and the people of the Central Plains are blessed and do not have to go hungry anymore. The imperial court is also relaxed, and there is no need to worry about food every year.

Tongren City has a huge grain production, not only supplying Dachu with a lot of grain every year, but they also encourage the people to raise a large number of livestock and poultry because there is enough food to feed them. In addition, their Tongren City is close to the sea, salt is very cheap, and the output is also very large, so all kinds of meat cured with salt have also become an important commodity for them to trade with Dachu.

In addition to these, the well-developed industries such as brewing, vinegar, and soy sauce are all around the grain processing industry anyway. Therefore, there are also many Dachu merchants here.

However, although the people here live and work in peace and contentment, they are not hungry, they are well dressed, and the buildings of the city are also neat and beautiful, and most of the people have beautiful houses to live in. But most of the houses here are simple, not as beautiful and luxurious as those in Qingchun City. And everyone thinks that although this city is good, it is still not as vibrant as Qingchun City.

Liu Jingyuan asked Chen Wenhui privately: "What do you think of this Tongren City?" You're the head of Nanyang, why do I think you're letting Tongren City develop like this? ”

Chen Wenhui smiled secretly, and that smile made Liu Jingyuan feel that his guess was right. Chen Wenhui said: "Where have I allowed Tongrencheng to develop like this, I fully respect the emperor's opinion and guide Tongrencheng to become like this." In fact, according to the emperor's original intention, it was to make Tongren City the granary of Dachu. However, I really can't stand the slow recovery of profits in Tongren City. Slow city building. In addition, the cousin of the Tian family and my cousin are still close to me, so I reluctantly pointed them out. For example, the people in Tongren City you see raising livestock are what I reminded my cousin of the Tian family to do. ”

Liu Jingyuan said: "I understand, then these winemaking and other industries are also your idea, right?" Now there are a lot of breweries in Tongren City, with a variety of different flavors, I heard that many of them are sold by your Qingchun City's patents, and you have made a lot of money, right? ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Brother Liu, you are not an outsider, so I'll tell you." Many of the patents of Tongrencheng were sold by us in Qingchun City. What's more, the houses in Tongren City were built by our construction team in Qingchun City. Now their people can live in such beautiful houses, firstly, because we built them, and secondly, because of the loans provided to them by our Nanyang Bank, so that they can afford to buy them. ”

After speaking, he explained to Liu Jingyuan in detail what a housing loan is. Liu Jingyuan didn't come back to his senses for a long time after hearing this, and said, "Your trick is really ruthless." In this way, won't the people of Tongren City be working for you in Qingchun City for the next ten years, or even twenty years? To be exact, a part-time job for your Nanyang Bank? Give you a part-time job for Chen Wenhui? No wonder you can build a new city so quickly. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "The most lacking thing in the construction of the new city is money, food, and people. Now there is no shortage of money. There is no shortage of people, and Dachu has sent so many disaster victims, which is enough for me to take to build a new city. What is lacking is food. In the past, when we built Qingchun City, we all bought grain from Yizhou Island, although it was better than transporting grain from Dachu, the freight was still very expensive. Now it's different, now we can transport grain from Tongren City nearby. With the big grain warehouse of Tongren City, can't we build a new city? ”

Liu Jingyuan looked at Wen Hui's smiling face, and suddenly felt that Tian Jingye was very pitiful. (To be continued......)
