Chapter 761: The Theory of Sea Forbiddenness
The queen saw the two daughters-in-law muttering below, her face was obviously a little worried, and she thought in her heart that these two must be speaking ill of her son.
After all, her son has been in the limelight this year, and the second and third children are definitely not happy in their hearts, and they can't tell how to arrange her family behind them.
"Ahem, the second daughter-in-law is here, when did she arrive, why don't you say hello to the palace!" The queen looked at Jiang Yihui lovingly, but the meaning of her words was that Jiang Yihui didn't understand the rules, and she didn't say hello to her first when she came.
"Meet the queen mother, the daughter-in-law just fed the medicine to our prince and came over, and when I saw the queen mother talking to the ladies, I didn't disturb the queen mother's Yaxing, it was the daughter-in-law who was rude!" Jiang Yihui stood up and saluted.
Ruoyun Wenyan felt that this Jiang Yihui was not so big as she looked, but also had a heart.
The queen said in public that she didn't understand etiquette, so she should come down, anyway, her Jiang Yihui's unique style has long been famous, and she is not afraid of this.
opened her mouth and gave the queen a soft nail, didn't she say that she had fed her prince the medicine.
As the mother-in-law of King Ping, this queen knew that her son had been seriously ill for so long, and when she saw that her daughter-in-law did not ask her son's situation first, she began to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson, and she was also a little unloving, isn't it!
The queen's eyes couldn't help but sink slightly when she heard this, but she still said with worry on her face: "This palace is just trying to ask you, is this second child's body better, a few days ago, this palace also called the imperial doctor who treated the second child over and told them to use snacks." If there is any lack of medicinal materials, you must tell this palace! β
In fact, she called the imperial doctor just to inquire about King Ping's condition, but now she came here to pretend to be a loving mother.
"Thank you for your concern, my prince has been improving recently, and he will be fine in a few days!" Jiang Yihui said.
"That's good, that's good, the second child has been weak and sick since he was a child, and how much medicine has he taken to raise it until now, this sudden and serious illness is really worrying about this palace!" The queen also does a full set of plays.
"It's not ours to worry about the queen mother. Please also ask the queen mother to put her body first. Don't overthink it! Jiang Yihui also said with a worried face.
Ruoyun couldn't help but look sideways, this Jiang Yihui didn't know if she had grown recently, or if she was like this, and she was not allowed to fight with the queen. It's really different from her usual grinning temperament.
The queen probably didn't expect Jiang Yihui to be so difficult. At first, I just thought it was a stupid big sister. That's why I wanted to pinch her in public, but I didn't expect that she didn't take advantage of it.
"Well, you have a heart!" In front of so many people. The queen also wants to be face-saving, so she didn't want to say more to Jiang Yihui, just responded casually, nodded and just forgot it.
But at this time, I saw Ruoyun sitting idly on the side, and I couldn't help but be a little angry, because a few days ago, Ruoyun spent a lot of money to let Youranju live for disaster relief, which can be regarded as competing with King Zhao.
However, in the end, it was King Zhao who won (the queen herself thought so), but she was not happy in her heart, so she said to Ruoyun: "The third daughter-in-law, seeing that this year has passed, you and the third child have been married for a long time, you are both young and strong, why hasn't there been any movement in this belly, I can tell you, what kind of shops and money-making things like you will be collected first, and our royal family can't be hungry for you, don't always get into the eyes of money, hurry up and find a way to fill in a grandson for the emperor and the palace is serious!"
When the queen said this in public, she slapped Ruoyun in the face, which was obviously the posture of her mother-in-law teaching her daughter-in-law.
It is said that in the homes of ordinary people, there are mothers-in-law who teach such lessons, but families with a little face will not teach their daughter-in-law such a lesson in public, and the queen's behavior is now embarrassing in public!
Seeing this, some of the noble ladies in the field bowed their heads, after all, this is the most noble pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world, and the king of Hades is fighting, and it is better for these little ghosts not to participate, and they will bring disaster to themselves.
There are some people who are not used to Ruoyun, or who once liked Chu Ziheng, when they heard the queen's words, they all showed a sarcastic smile on their faces, and they clearly looked at Ruoyun's appearance.
Ruoyun didn't expect that it was the queen and Jiang Yihui who were fighting the edge, why did this disaster be directly transferred to herself, but the queen's words, she still shouldn't do it for a while.
Shi Shiran stood up and saluted the queen slightly: "Thank you for the lesson of the queen mother, my daughter-in-law really doesn't know much about business matters, and my mother's family is in charge!" As for what the queen mother said, the latter thing! β
At this time, Ruoyun paused, pretended to be a little shy and blushed: "We have just gotten married, with the eldest brother and sister-in-law in front, the father and the queen mother will definitely be able to hold their grandchildren!" β
These words not only made the queen suffocated, but even the smile on Princess Zhao's face, who had been sitting beside the queen, could hardly be maintained.
The child's matter is the most taboo thing in Princess Zhao's heart, if she has a sister-in-law now, how can it be so difficult in the mansion like now, even the queen is afraid that she will give her some face.
When the queen was down, she forgot that her son-in-law and daughter-in-law had no children yet, and she was still qualified to say that they had only been married for less than three months, and it was indeed a little early for her to urge her.
Moreover, what she said in public to give birth to a child was actually a bit vulgar, not in line with her mother's identity in the world, Ruoyun's shy expression just now was the best counterattack to her.
The queen couldn't help glaring at Princess Zhao on the side, blaming her for not being angry, and she hadn't given birth to a sister-in-law after a few years of marriage, otherwise she wouldn't have to fight back to this Bai Ruoyun like this.
"Well, you all have to hurry!" The queen said casually, and then ignored Ruoyun.
Now she has more important things, which is to win the support of some ministers for her son.
So she is very courting to the wives of the ministers who hold the power in their hands, don't look at these ladies are all from the inner courtyard, but the power of the pillow wind is still not small.
Ruoyun and Jiang Yihui followed aside, and they didn't go back to their respective homes until the banquet was over. The difference is that Ruoyun was taken back by Chu Ziheng, while Jiang Yihui went back by herself.
Jiang Yihui stood at the gate of the carved and magnificent palace, the winter evening breeze, blowing her clothes, she looked at it from a distance, the backs of Chu Ziheng and Ruoyun walking hand in hand, like a pair of golden boys and girls, I didn't know what I thought, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. He waved his hand a little lonely. got into his own gorgeous carβ
Early in the morning on the first day of the new year, Chu Ziheng and Ruoyun entered the palace early, and they wanted to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor and queen.
In the main hall, King Zhao took Princess Zhao to the head. followed by Princess Ping Jiang Yihui alone. King Ping is not in good health. Still couldn't make it.
Behind them are Chu Ziheng and Ruoyun, and behind them are some young people of different heights, all of whom are the emperor's sons. Chu Ziheng's younger brothers. On the other side, the eldest princess from Concubine De came out and brought a group of princesses of all sizes to the emperor and queen to pay New Year's greetings.
Everyone kowtowed to the emperor and the queen, and bowed to the New Year, and the emperor and the queen also rewarded a lot of things with a loving face, and then they could disperse, and since then, they only need to enter the palace on the fifth day of the new year to kowtow to the emperor, and there is nothing to do in the rest of the days.
After Ruoyun came out of the palace, he only felt relaxed for a while, and he walked a lot briskly, Chu Ziheng couldn't help but smile when he saw this: "Yun'er, you have been working hard recently, where do you want to play, anyway, the yamen has sealed the pen, and we are all free before the fifth day of the new year!" β
Ruoyun thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's a cold day, it's not appropriate to go anywhere, it's better to stay at home, quiet!" I prepared a lot of food a year ago, and every day we cook and eat in different ways! β
As soon as these words came out, it was obvious that Ruoyun was a foodie, but Chu Ziheng, who had been driven by Ruoyun for so many years, had already become a qualified foodie, and immediately replied when he heard the words: "Okay, I listen to you!" β
However, although the two planned well, it was not so quiet in the end.
When they arrived at the mansion, the subordinates of the entire mansion were waiting for them, and the subordinates wanted to pay New Year's greetings to the master.
The two of them received the gifts from the people, and then they rewarded a lot of red envelopes, and everyone in the house was happy.
In the afternoon, the two of them had a quiet afternoon, and after taking a nap, they talked in the house and pondered what to eat.
But since the next day, a lot of banquet posts have been sent, and if Yun really doesn't want to participate in this kind of occasion, he can push it, but there are two that must go.
One is her mother's family Dingguo Gong, and the other is her uncle's Anyang Hou family. As the first-year daughter, she has to go to her elders to pay New Year's greetings.
In this way, the second and third days of junior high school are used, only the fourth day of junior high school is really a quiet day, and in the afternoon, the two will disguise themselves as ordinary couples and go to the temple fair on the street for a walk.
On the fifth day of the first month, I went to the palace for a banquet, and in the afternoon, I went to the leisurely residence to support the scene, because this year is the year of the big competition, and the leisurely residence is next to Qingyun Street, where many students live, so I made a gimmick of a talent competition, which can be regarded as adding a bit of cultural atmosphere to the shop.
The Yamen started working on the sixth day of the first month, and early in the morning, Ruoyun looked at Chu Ziheng who was fully dressed and set off, and couldn't help but sigh that this day passed so fast, but in just a few days, her man was going to work again.
Chu Ziheng looked at Ruoyun's somewhat resentful eyes, walked over and helped her shoulders and said, "Yun'er, do you want to go to the southeast coast to live for a while?" β
Being asked by Chu Ziheng like this, Ruoyun was still ignorant at first, how could he suddenly ask this question, frowned, and said: "Of course it's good to be able to go out for a walk, but we can leave Beijing there?" β
The emperor's consent must be required for the prince to leave Beijing, so Chu Ziheng, who is the king of An, and Ruoyun, who is the princess of An, cannot go out of Beijing casually.
"What if I could get out?" Chu Ziheng had some positive colors on his face, not like a joke.
Ruoyun couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this, and quickly asked, "What's the matter?" β
"Yun'er, you also know that although our Dachu looks rich and strong, the country and the people are safe, but because my father has reduced the taxes of many farmers again and again over the years, the treasury is a little tight! Although it is not overstretched, but in the end, the foundation is not thick! Chu Ziheng said in a low voice.
Ruoyun nodded when she heard this, she knew about it, the emperor Aimin had already reduced the people's taxes several times, and the treasury had a lot less input.
Although the treasury of Great Chu is not very short of money at present, the emperor wants to support hundreds of officials and troops stationed at the border gates, and the huge country needs money everywhere, so the more money in the treasury, the better.
Chu Ziheng continued, "People have no long-term concerns, there must be near-term worries, although the treasury can still be supplied at present, but in a few years, more than ten years later, it will be uncertain!" Therefore, my father began to plan the opening of the sea ban a few years ago, and as soon as the sea ban was opened, it was a sharp weapon for silver, and the treasury naturally had silver. β
"My father started planning a few years ago, why hasn't it been implemented yet?" Ruoyun asked.
"In fact, in the generation of the emperor's grandfather, the emperor's grandfather once opened the sea ban, but as soon as the sea ban was opened, although there was more silver, but pirates were rampant, and there were some foreign Japanese people who often came to rob the people on the border, and they were particularly cunning, often fighting guerrilla warfare, the government had nothing to do with them, but the people by the sea were deeply affected, so although the sea ban brought a lot of wealth, but the imperial grandfather was still under all kinds of pressure, and continued to ban the sea!" Chu Ziheng explained.
"In this way, if my father wants to open the sea ban, someone in the court must stop it, so it has been delayed until now?" Ruoyun asked.
"That's true, but it's not just that, there are a lot of entanglements of interests in it! In fact, although the sea ban is set up, some powerful families will still privately start the business of maritime trade, and now that the sea ban is opened, it will inevitably affect their interests, so these people join forces to prevent their father from opening the sea ban! Chu Ziheng said.
If Yun thinks about it, it is true, the profit of this piece is very large, and it is not enough to say that it is not enough to get a million taels of silver after a trip, although there are many risks in smuggling, but the interests are the first, who wants to spit out the fat head that reaches the mouth.
"Then you say this now, is it true that my father has already taken the initiative, and this sea ban is about to be opened?" If Yun thought about this, Chu Ziheng asked her if she wanted to go to the southeast coast, it must be that the emperor had decided to open the sea ban.
"Well, after a few years of maneuvering, my father has taken the initiative, and it should be announced in a few days after the New Year!" Chu Ziheng said.
Ruoyun thought about it, his father-in-law had to say that he was really a good emperor, he did everything for the country and the people, and everything he did was for Da Chu.
"So, you want to go over and have a look? But will the father and the emperor and those courtiers agree? Ruoyun said thoughtfully, of course she also wanted to go out for a walk, and looking at Chu Ziheng's appearance, she also wanted to go, and couldn't help but think that if someone wanted to stop them, she could use some means.
"I will find a way to get my father to agree, after all, this matter is not trivial, I want to help my father do this thing well and perfectly! As for those courtiers, hmph, they can't help those who disagree! Chu Ziheng said.
Ruoyun is right when she thinks about it, her husband is not a face-to-face person, and she has many means, since this is the case, let him worry about the outside affairs! (To be continued......)
