Chapter 249: The Value of Raising

Pei Erye smiled, "Nannan, not only because of you, but also because of Gusu and Liujiagang." As soon as the ocean stops, Liujiagang will not work, do you remember when your father took you to Liujiagang to see the ocean fleet sail when you were a child? Nowadays, it is completely incomparable. ”

He followed his father Pei Ge Lao in Gusu since he was a teenager, and Liujiagang at that time was known as "the first wharf in the world", full of various sea ships made in Nanjing, Taicang and other places, and thousands of ships were shipped by sea, which was very prosperous. Walking around the wharf are the officers and soldiers stationed in the local area, the soldiers who carry the grain for the army, the merchants who are full of dreams of gold rushing, and many vassal kings, envoys and attachΓ©s who have come with the ocean-going fleet, etc., which is very prosperous.

Supplying the ocean-going fleet brought a great burden to Gusu. However, after the ocean stopped, Liujiagang has gradually fallen silent, and it is conceivable that after a few hundred years, it will become an ordinary Jiangnan town, and it will no longer be at its peak. Pei Erye was not in favor of going to sea before, but when he proposed that merchant ships accompany him, he felt that he could give it a try.

β–‘β–‘ in order to show their tenderness, the vassal kings of various countries were allowed to bring private goods when they came to China. The smuggled goods they brought with them were very profitable, and the pepper that was originally worth one tael of silver was worth twenty taels in China. If the ocean-going fleet allows merchant ships to accompany it, then it will bring not only a burden, but also a benefit.

"Now that the tenth brother has only ascended the throne, everything is stable, and in a few years, maybe he can start doing this." Laughing Mimi.

It is not possible to close off the country, and the ocean is a place where it must be contested.

"Dad still thinks it's a pity, Chen Lingyun didn't care when he was young, since he captured the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and returned to the dynasty victoriously, he showed outstanding military talent, and even the Duke of Wei looked at him differently." Pei Erye sighed.

"What's this? In addition to being a companion reader, there are many ways to lift up the Chen family. Daddy, as long as the courtiers are loyal and capable, there will be a reward. "I don't think so.

Pei Erye smiled, "That's the reason." However, Chen Lingyun loves his daughter the most. ”

Pretending to be surprised, "Daddy, at this point, he's just like you." Do you feel like a confidant? ”

"It's not." Pei Erye shook his head with a smile, "He made my father feel that his vanity was greatly satisfied." ”

Chen Lingyun would respectfully compliment Pei Erye every time they met, saying that he would learn from Pei Erye, so that the family would be clean and clean, and let his daughter grow up delicately and preciously. His words and deeds really pleased Pei Erye and made Pei Erye feel a sense of accomplishment. Who is Chen Yong? It's a mess at home. Chen Lingyun saw the warmth and harmony of the Pei family when he was a child, and when he grew up, he became a completely different person from his father, young and promising, caring for his wife and daughter - to say that Pei Erye didn't care about this would be a bit hypocritical. One person can affect another person's life, who wouldn't care?

Jin Tongzheng also mentioned to Pei Erye later that the reason why he agreed to Chen Lingyun's marriage proposal back then was not only because he was really talented, but also because he was determined to learn from Pei Erye and take Pei Erye as a model, "If his family can be like your family, there are many people who are willing to marry his daughter, not only the eldest princess's mansion in Longqing." ”

It is conceivable what Pei Erye felt when he heard this.

It was the first time I heard this, and I was happy to fall, "Daddy, you are so vain." ”

Pei Erye smiled, "Originally, it wasn't, but then I had a girl with a strong sense of vanity, and the father was taken bad." ”

"I can still take you badly." It's even happier.

The father and daughter laughed a few words, and Pei Erye said goodbye and left.

Although Pei Erye wants to avoid suspicion and no longer be an official, he has a very chic life. When he entered the palace, he looked at his grandson, and when he went home, he looked at his grandson, who was in his early fifties, and looked like he was in his thirties, elegant and gentle, and unusual.

He was a happy father and a happy grandfather.

After two months, the companions were selected. There are Xu Zhixuan of the Wei Mansion, Lin Pei of the Lin Shangshu family, Gu Xiaoman of the Gu family, Zhang Min of the British Mansion, Wen Wen's warmth, Wang Shouxin of the Xiping Grand Governor's Mansion, as well as the children of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and the Yasukuni Mansion, there are boys and girls, a total of 16 people. Playmates, the more the merrier, only a few people are not enough, sixteen people, it seems reasonable.

"So many people go to school together." Little deep and little thank you can't be happy.

Kids always like kids.

After the companion reading was selected, Xingguo Gong was unhappy when he saw that there was no Qiu family, "The concubine was martyred by the first emperor, and the Qiu family doesn't even have this dignity." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang was also displeased, "Could it be that the children of our Zhang family are not all good, and they are not worthy of accompanying the prince and daughter to study?" ”

Speaking of which, there is a martyred concubine in the Xingguo family, and the Zhang family has a queen mother, who really belongs to a family that should be taken care of. However, this is to pick a playmate for the children, the children are too young, if he is allowed to contact his peers who are not good from an early age, it will not be good for his growth. The emperor discussed with him, and gave the Xingguo Mansion and the Jinxiang Bofu to show his favor, but the children of these two families were not allowed to enter the palace to study. Not to mention the style of the Qiu family, the Zhang family is not much better, I really think that the children of these two families may not be as good as the little girl A Zhao of the Chen family. After all, Ah Zhao is just a grandparent and grandmother, and his parents are still very good, the children of these two families are good, although the grandparents can't mention it, and the parents are even more squirrel, mean and mean, and they can't pick out a good one.

Although Xingguo Gong was still a little dissatisfied, the emperor and queen had already been rewarded, and he continued to spend all day drinking and dreaming of death. I have to say that Xingguo Gong is lucky, he himself is purely a wine bag and rice bag, but because of the dedication of his daughter to the palace, the Qiu family has gained decades of glory. This girl also made great contributions to the Xingguo Mansion when she was dying, she used her life to earn two hereditary real shortage of thousands of households for the Qiu family, not to mention, but also earned the right to speak for the Xingguo Mansion. No, there is no Qiu family in the palace, he can complain, he has complained, the emperor and queen not only do not blame, but also reward him generously to show compensation.

"This maid is worth raising!" In a drunken haze, Xingguo Gong thought of the martyred Qiu Guifei and smiled happily.

It didn't take much effort to raise her, but when she grew up, she would be really useful to the Qiu family.

"Pick a woman, you have to pick a beautiful one!" After Xingguo Gong woke up this time, it was very rare to get it, and he instructed his children and grandchildren seriously, "You must choose the beautiful ones, you know?" If you choose a beautiful woman, you may give birth to a beautiful daughter; With a beautiful daughter, she may become the favorite concubine in the palace and bring countless benefits to the Qiu family, understand? ”

His children and grandchildren's eyes lit up. Pick a beautiful woman? I'll see it!

Since then, the men of the Heungguo Mansion have become more addicted to alcohol. What to do, what's the use, as long as you give birth to a beautiful daughter, raise her and dedicate her to the palace, you will have all the glory and wealth.

Jin Tongzheng has been serving in the Department of General Administration for many years, and has not changed departments or been promoted. He didn't care about his career and didn't get promoted, he estimated that it was because of the teacher's relationship, and sighed. He is still working diligently, but he doesn't care about fame and fortune, and he looks very indifferent.

The selection of companions was done quietly and not publicly. After the companions entered the palace to study, Jin Tongzheng learned about it. He thought about it again and again, and asked Pei Erye to come out for a drink. During the banquet, he politely proposed that his granddaughter Ah Zhao was a very well-behaved and lovely little girl, although she was from the Linjiang Hou Mansion, she was not like the people of the Linjiang Hou Mansion.

When Jin Tongzheng's reading in the palace was settled, he deliberately asked Pei Erye to drink, and when he said this, of course, he didn't mention it casually, but he was recommending his granddaughter.

Second Master Pei was a little surprised.

What the Xiang family had threatened, except for Pei Lin, no one else in the Pei family knew, and Pei Lin didn't even tell his family. This matter is quite embarrassing, they don't want to mention it at all, Pei Lin doesn't want to face his stupidity (he thinks it's stupid), and he doesn't want to mention the embarrassment of starling.

The Pei family has never known, but is it possible that no one in the Jin family knows except for the Xiang family? The more Pei Er Ye thought about it, the more wrong it became, with his understanding of Jin Tongzheng, it was impossible for him to brazenly make such a request after knowing what the Xiang clan had done.

Over the years, Pei Erye and Jin Tongzheng have had a good relationship, but unpleasant topics have never been talked about.

Second Master Pei's face met Jin Tongzheng's eyes, and he felt that something was wrong, so he didn't mention this matter again, and made a mistake, "This family's hibiscus dew is extremely mellow, please please." Pei Erye raised his wine glass with a smile, and the two drank calmly.

Until the final seat, Jin Tongzheng did not mention Fang Cai's words again, and the two politely said goodbye.

When Jin Tongzheng returned home, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. The Marquis of Guangning has always been gentle and humble, but when he heard him mention Ah Zhao, the expression on his face was ...... He was clearly surprised, surprised at how he could bring this up. However, I have some friendship with him, so why can't I mention it?

Refuse the Pei family's proposal? No, it won't. After rejecting this marriage, he has not shown any displeasure over the years, and everything is as usual.

Jin Tongzheng is meticulous, and he sits alone in the study every day, sorting out what he has done in a day, the people he has seen, and the words he has said. He really couldn't let go of this matter in his heart, so he went to the study after returning home, found the notes of the year when he refused the Pei family's marriage, and looked through them carefully.

"It's better to drag it first, or push it off." "Xianggong, if An'er marries into the Pei family, will she be able to help Concubine Tang's two biological daughters?" What Xiang said back then made Jin Tongzheng feel very troubled, and he wrote it down word for word. Turning to these again, with Jin Tongzheng's cleverness, there is nothing I don't understand.

He then flipped down, and the Xiang family participated in the palace lotus banquet for the first time that year.

"That year, she entered the palace, she entered the palace......" Jin Tongzheng closed his eyes in pain.

She hated the court and wanted to stay away from it, but she entered the palace that year.

Concubine Tang's two biological daughters, do you really miss them so much? Or is it the idea of saving others and sacrificing yourself that makes you feel great? You want to be great, you have to sacrifice, sacrifice yourself, what do you do to bring my An'er.

Xiangshi, I can't forgive you, I can never forgive you.

Jin Tongzheng returned to the room with a somewhat melancholy expression, and Xiangshi mentioned the teacher, mentioned the teacher's deep kindness, but he couldn't repay it, and also mentioned Concubine Tang, and Concubine Tang's two county lords, Chaoyang and Qingyang, "...... Fortunately, they have been suitable for good people, and they have no worries about food and clothing. Thinking of Yu sacrificial wine, it is really admirable and ashamed. Lady, I just read the manuscript left by the teacher, and I feel that I have no face to be a man. ”

Yu Xijiu proposed to Chaoyang and Qingyang for his son and nephew, such courage and mind, Jin Tongzheng is indeed ashamed.

Seeing him like this, Xiang Shi said softly: "We're not bad, Xiang Gong doesn't need to be like this." ”

As if he was meritorious, he told the conversation he had with back then.

Look, we didn't do nothing, I dared to confront the crown princess Pei for the sake of Chaoyang and Qingyang. A husband like Pei Jiahachilang, who doesn't covet the noblewomen in the capital? I didn't take such a son-in-law seriously.

It's really her, it's really her.

Jin Tongzheng's heart was cold.
