At this time, Wu Meiniang has successively shown favor to the Taiyuan Wang family, Fan Yang Lu family, and Xingyang Zheng family.

This is completely different from Wu Meiniang's previous practice of suppressing the five surnamed Qiwang families.

Chen Fang guessed that Wu Meiniang saw that there was no result in suppressing the family of the five surnames, and at this time, when His Majesty ignored the national affairs and the prince was in charge, she encircled the family of the five surnames and asked the forces of the five surnames to support the prince.

Among them, the calculation is only vividly manifested from a small promotion in the palace.

There is no trivial matter in the harem, and there is a slight movement, which leads to many people's speculation, and today's two promotions of harem concubines are enough to make the government and the opposition tremble a little.

Being a concubine in the harem is not a matter of one person, which concubine in the harem does not have a deep family power behind her, even if those who originally had no foundation, I am afraid that there will be far-fetched clinging.

For the Li family in Longxi and the Zheng family in Xingyang, many people actually saw it clearly. But this is paving the way for the crown prince, most people are sure.

Wu Meiniang's change in attitude towards the five surnames may be due to the fact that she has already felt that suppressing the five surnames is not something that can be completed in the short term, but encircling the five surnames can allow Li Hong to make many good achievements in the early days of his administration.

And the other thing is about the queen's southern tour after the beginning of spring.

After the queen made a southern tour after the beginning of spring, the prince said to the ministers in the court, obviously this is what Wu Meiniang meant.

The prince only said that the queen mother of Kaichun would go to the southern states to relax, and asked the officials in charge of the court to inform the officials of the southern states to make arrangements.

Just said that, without mentioning any details, some officials asked, and the prince only said that this was the meaning of the queen mother, and did not say much.

After the beginning of spring, the queen will go to Jiangnan, which is already a matter of determination, and the reason why it is set so early is because the southern states must prepare to meet them, and the news must be transmitted to the southern states first.

Naturally, it is necessary to inform along the way, and the official and military escorts and boat arrangements must be arranged in advance.

These are the two things that happened on the second day of November, the first seems ordinary but not ordinary, and the second is just a framework without any details.

The queen is going to the south, when exactly she will go, with whom, and what she is going to do, everyone can only guess with each other.

At this time, in the Tang workshop, Wu Meiniang pulled Li Hong, Li Hong asked a few words, Wu Meiniang only said to Li Hong that the queen mother had not settled.

In the end, Li Hong didn't ask anything and went back to his yard.

At this time, Chen Fang was idle fishing for pond fish in the lotus pond, but in fact, it was half a day, but not a single small fish was hooked.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Chen Fang looked back and saw Wu Meiniang walking towards him.

"Did you catch any fish for dinner?"

Chen Fang shook his head.

"In the spring of next year, you will also accompany the palace to Jiangnan!"

"Well, the minister knows!"

In fact, when Chen Fang got the news, he knew that he was definitely going, and Wu Meiniang couldn't leave him more or less at this time.

"How's going on with the Dunhuang branch?"

"Meng Fei has arrived in Dunhuang, and a workshop is being built there at this time, with Meng Fei's ability and means, there will not be many difficulties."

"Well, this palace is also relieved of her. This time to go to the southern states, you also choose a place to build a Jiangnan branch, Jiangnan is far away from Chang'an after all, relying on the materials here to transport the past, the consumption is too great. ”

"Well, the minister also has the idea of building the Jiangnan branch, but I didn't expect Niangniang to mention it first."

"Have you ever wondered where to build the Jiangnan branch?"

"Shangyuan County!"

"Health City, but it's also a good choice."

"I thought the mother would disagree."

"Why?"

"After all, it is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and the hearts of many southerners are there."

"Because of that, it's also a good place."

Wu Meiniang sat next to Chen Fang, and at this time, it happened that a pond fish bit the hook, Chen Fang mentioned that a fresh pond fish was swinging its tail in the winter sun in the afternoon, throwing out countless fine water droplets, and was thrown to the shore by Chen Fang.

"I've caught it, and I can eat fish at night."

"Niangniang, the eldest princess's abdomen is bulging day by day..."

"This palace knows, it's good to take An'er with you when the time comes."

"Xie Niangniang is considerate!"

"Well, when the time comes, you will also go to meet Concubine Shu, after all, you have married Concubine Shu's two daughters, but you have never seen her mother-in-law."

"Actually, I've seen it once, in the East Palace."

"Hong'er, this kid, is just a little too kind."

"Niangniang, isn't this better, the prince is benevolent, and the world is in the heart."

"You mouth!"

Wu Meiniang was obviously in a good mood today, and sat with Chen Fang for a long time, during which she didn't know if her mind was not fishing at all. Chen Fang caught more than a dozen fresh fish one after another, and the wooden barrels he brought at this time were all filled and returned with a full load.

The sun is setting, the workshop workers in the workshop have been released, the current Tang workshop, after the workshop workers are finished, but it is not like before everyone went to the canteen, at this time there are many people, especially the little weaver girl embroidery girl who likes to be clean and beautiful, will go to the bath first after coming back.

The bathing place is shrouded in the heat aroused by the carbon fire dragon, which is an excellent place to go in winter.

Chen Fang walked towards his courtyard with the harvest, at this time there were many embroidered girls and weaver girls along the way, some carrying wooden basins, some holding clothes, and more just casually in groups, walking and laughing into the bath.

There was a glimpse of the prince, who was staring at the crowd.

Chen Fang was a little far away from him, but the prince didn't see Chen Fang.

Chen Xiang walked towards his yard, and a little weaver girl suddenly ran to the prince and gave him a purse. Chen Fang saw it and smiled in his heart, Li Hong likes the little weaver girl in the end, and the skill of hooking up with the little weaver girl is also perfect.

The little weaver girls in the workshop are all from the south of the Yangtze River, pure in mind, because they have been in the Tang Workshop, there is less natural estrangement between classes, after all, in the workshop, the class is difficult to reflect here, as the owner of the horse does not like others to be inferior in front of him, which seriously distorts the values and class concepts of the people in the workshop.

The little weaver girl sent the prince a purse, in this era, what is in the purse is self-evident.

Chen Fang glanced at it and entered the courtyard gate of the owner's courtyard.

"That little weaver girl is familiar, she gave herself two lotus seeds, and now she has given the prince a purse with a wisp of green silk."

Chen Fang put down the wooden barrel in the kitchen, and Dingyu and Qian'er glanced at the wooden barrel.

"Master has gained a lot today!"

"Well, let Wanqing and Birou come to the courtyard in a while, I have something to say."

"For their homework?"

"If you don't learn to learn words, you will go to work in the workshop in the future, and there are naturally people in the workshop who are willing to follow Yang Jiong to learn literature."

"Master Pony, it's best if you can be as tolerant of them as you are with us."

"Qian'er, you are speaking for a few of them, but I heard that Yang Jiong fell the inkstone angrily."

"I didn't want to learn much at first!"

Chen Fang pinched Qian'er's cheek and gently scraped the bridge of her nose.
